Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and q
body Of ladies from her church, all IN
terested In women's suffrage, once took
little newsboy from the gutter and
educated him superbly. They sent him
through school and college and finally
made minister of him. This young
minister, the work of their hands,
preached his first sermon in their
church. That was a proud Sunday
morning for the good ladies'. They
thought they had at last firmly planted
among the male sex a strong and
splendid supporter. So they filed the
church that Sunday morning. Who
could tell but that their young charge
might preach In their honor q woman
suffrage sermon? Imagine their emo
tion when the youth arose In the pull
pit, looking calmly and even sternly
over the congregation, and announced
that his text would be from st. Paul.

For an officer who failed to carry
his home precinct in state election,
and who was forced to tearfully be-
seech the legislature to reduce his
bond in order that he could qualify,
State Treasurer Edwards is making
an unusual amount of strange noise.
We idly wonder why he can't realize
that the people don't care durn for
his private opinions or his nauseating
interviews.

"Ye did thot," replied his assistant,

A bishop travelling in the depth OF
winter came to a house Of presiding
elder to spend the night. The weather
was bitterly cold, and the bedroom
into which the bishop was shown had
a thick coating of ice on the windows.
The elder waited to see the bishop
safely between the feather beds. But
when the bishop, half frozen, jumped
into bed without stopping to say his
prayers the elder demonstrated with
him.
"You have forgotten to say your
prayers" he said.

Character Molds the Face.

It is not in words explicable with
what divine lines and lights the exer-
else of godliness and charity will mold
and gild the hardest and coolest coun
tenance, neither to what darkness their
departure will consign the loveliest,
for there is not any virtue the exercise
Of which even momentarily will not
impress new fairness upon the fea-
lures. Neither on them only, but on
the whole body, the moral and intel
lectual faculties have operation, for all
the movements and gestures, however
slight, are different in their modes,
according to the mind that governs
them, and on the gentleness and deci-
sion of right feeling follows grace of
actions and through continuance of
this grace Of form. John Ruskin.

Death OF Major Greene.

In the death Of Major Greene at
Mitchell, a man prominent In the cap.
ture OF John Brown at Harper's Fer.
ry in 1859 has passed from the stage
Of human activities.
The writer met him In YanktOn In
the fall of 1870, when he arrived from
Virginia to join his brother, FL. @.
Greene, a prominent surveyor at
Yankton in early days.
Major Greene gave us a full history
Of the capture OF John Brown at that
time. and out of his trunk he took
the sword with which he felled the
most noted abolitionist, compelling
him to surrender. Major Greene was
q Lieutenant OF marines and In
charge Of the marine escort on the
frigate Niagara which conveyed the
Japanese Prince home after a tour OF
the eastern cities, when everybody
went crazy over the "little Mikado.'
Lieutenant Greene was on the broad
Pacific ocean when Sumpter was fred
on and nothing was known Of the civ.
II war until the Niagara returned
home. Greene took up the Southern
cause, although he did SC more be
cause Virginia left the Union than
that he favored secession.

High School Glass Play.

The opera House was p1chod We'd
nesday evening to enjoy the class day
program of the high school graduates.
The entertainment began with a song
by the girls chorus. Clyde Kinsley
read the class history and Asher An
derson presented the famous Ratchet
to Verne Kennedy who accepted the
beribboned emblem of power. Mona
Reynolds read the class poem and
Alice Rudolph gave the class prophe-
cy, then came the play, "Higbee of
Harvard.'
Every one in the cast did we'll, re-
markably we'll, and won for them
selves the highest appreciation of
that big audience.
Arthur Goetz as Watson w. Hig-
bee, father Of Lorin Higbee, the
champion young athlete Of Harvard,
made q decided hit as the "old man
| with millions and a mind Of his
own. Art surprised his friends and
won fame as an actor; Kinsey Forbes,
as Lorin Higbee. the Harvard athlete,
played the leading part and did it like
a veteran. He was natural, and at
ease all through the play, and made
love and fought for his rights like a
genuine mountain boy.
Asher Anderson, as the Hon. V. D.
| Withrow, an ex-senator and a high
toned man with a tall family tree and
a small bank account, was made up
to perfection and carried his dignity
around like a Kentucky colonel. He
had a charming daughter represented
by Edna Lee. He wanted her to
marry millions but she had a mind
and will of her own and finally mar
ried Elmer Anderson who as Ted
Dalrympl worked his way through
Harvard. He didn't know how to
pop the question but got there just
the same by marrying the girl Of his
choice. Miss Lee played her part to
perfection, believing Ted worthy OF
her love and affection.
Roy Parke, as Higgins the butler,
did fine and had lots of trouble, but
in Mrs. Meddigrew Lucille Byers-he
found a gold mine Of genuine woman
hood. She knew how to express her
self and made them all stand around.
The play did not clearly point out
who popped the question but Roy
had a prize when the curtain fell, and
the audience thought 10 too.
Neva Bacon as Mrs. Ballou, the
senator's sister won the heart of the
gallant Millionaire Art Goetz, who
was just about as happy as his son,
Kinsey Fobes, when he won the heart
of Madge Cummings--Calla Tucker, a
young lady who loved Kinsey because
he married her in preference to his
fathers millions.
All displayed remarkable ability
and have a to feel proud Of their
success.
On account of many not being able to
secure seats, the play will be repeated

Augustana Commencement.


This has been a busy week so far at
Augustana College. The commence
ment exercises began Monday evening
with the baccalaureate sermon by
Rev. j. A. Quello Of Beresford.
Tuesday evening Miss Synva
Thompson and L. Alden Haug gave a
voice recital, assisted by Miss Judith
Sogn, violinist. The selections were
from the masters and each number
displayed the splendid musical train
ing Of the artists.
Wednesday evening the graduates
Of the Commercial department. re-
ceived their diplomas from President
Tuve, and a splendid audience heard
a magnificent address by Hon. G.. w.
Egan of Sioux Falls. A solo by Miss
Synva Thompson and singing by the
college choir and glee club did much
to make the evening memorable in
the commencement history of this
popular and progressive institution.
The academic and normal graduates
will receive the honors due them
Thursday evening after the LEADER
has gone to press, which will require
