A PRETTY TRIBUTE.
Ministers Pass Resolutions in
Memory of Prof. C..
W. Hodgin.
SYMPATHY is EXTENDED.

At a special meeting of the Rich
mond Ministerial association yesterday,
resolutions were adopted in memory to
the death of Cyrus W. Hodgin, who has
always taken prominent part in histor-
ical societies of Indiana, and has a
name that reaches all over the United
States. Professor Hodgin was for
twenty years head of the history de-
partment at Earlham college.
The resolutions are:
Whereas, 1t seemed good to our
Heavenly Father, in his wise provi
6ence, to call from his earthly laDors
to his regard in glory, our beloved
friend and brother, Prof. Cyrus w.
of Richmond, Ind. desire to put on
record our high appreciation of the life
and character of our brother and friend
for the blessed influences that he ex-
erted in his quiet and humble life,
whilst living among men. Therefore
Resolved That we bow in humble
submission to the will of God, our
Heavenly Father, believing with all our
hearts that he maketh all things work
together for good to them that love
God. We realize in the departure Of
our brother anew that this is not all OF
life to live; that the work which God
hath given us to do must be dOnee,
while it is day, for the night cometh,
when no man can work: and that we
also must be about our Fathers bust
ness, as our brother was, till the Mas
ter said unto him: Well done, good
and faithful servant, thou hast been
faithful over few things. | will make
thee ruler over many things, enter thou
into the joy of thy Lord
Resolved, That in the death of Pro-
fessor Hodgin. his family has lost a
tender and affectionate father and
brother, the faculty and student body
of Earlham college most efficient and
| capable professor, and a wise and safe
counselor, the community of friends g
very earnest, faithful and devoted
member, the city of Richmond and the
state of Indiana citizen who devoted
himself to the highest welfare of his
| lCllo" SlNlllo LAuSh IiihS anu 10
Dor for the uplift of humanity and fol
good citizenship.
Resolved, That we extend to his be
loved daughters and family. to the two
brothers and the sisters who survive
him, and to Earlham college, our deep
est sympathy in their loss and bereave
ment, pointing them to the source o.
all comfort and consolation, being as
sured that earth has no sorrow, tina
heaven cannot heal.
Resolved, That copy of these res
olutions be furnished the bereaved fam
lily, and the press.
Respectfully submitted,

Mile. and the Reporter.

General Nelson A. Miles always did
like to have fun with new reporters"
said an old newspaper man. 81 re-
member some years ago he told an un-
fortunate Washington correspondent q
long story about a new gun metal that
some genius was supposed to have just
discovered. 1t was a wonderful alloy
which was as tough as steel and as
light as aluminium. By its use the
general said, II would be possible to
build guns which would weigh no
more than the immense projecfiIes
which they fired.
The correspondent was delighted
and went of and wrote a beautiful
article. which produced spasms of
laughter throughout the entire artil-
lery service You see. 1t doesn't re-
quire a very profound knowledge OF
ballistics to know that IL a gun and
projectile both weigh exactly the same
amount they would ny In opposite d.
rections with exactly the same velocity
when the piece was fired"

An Englishman named Shelford
while travelling in Sumatra heard from
the natives of the existence of flying
snakes. He found that there actually
were such reptiles and that they had
an anatomical popularity which en-
abled them to descend safely from high
trees to the Rxound or water.

COTTON PRICES.

ORGANIZER smith, Oh the SOuOn-

Reasons for Being Optimistic
Over Outlook for Cotton Grow
erS.
Columbia,s e., Correspond nee, I'd, of The
Charlotte OBJ erver.
A few weeks ago President
e. D. Smith, of the cotton asso-
citation, issued a statement to
growers, which had rather a
pessimistic tone, advising ali
to sit tight for lowering prices
by cutting the acreage and
growing more hog and homi
n.y." To-day, however, after
completing a tour over the
West, he thinks conditions as
sure good prices in the near
future. He issued a statement
saying:
Il have just returned from

The serious decline in tn,
price of cotton made it of the
utmost Importance that l
should get better personal
idea of the real situation.
"According to the facts
cleaned. l see no reason why
those who have spot cotton
need be uneasy as to the final
outcome of prices. India is
practically 100000 bales

1000, 900. bales short; aggre-
. eating, from these two sections

t OF 25 per cent. in the worlds

n The spindle capacity this year
