And pain has exhausted every limb,
The lover OF the Lord shall trust in him.
II.
When the will has forgotten fhe lifelong
And the mind can only disgrace its iame,-
And man is uncertain of his own name.
The power Of the Lord shall fill this
When the last sigh is heaved and the last
tear shed.
And the coffin is waiting beside the bed.
And the widow and child forsake tho
dead.
The angel of the Lord shall lift this head
w.
For even the purest delight may pail;
The power must fail, and the pride must
fall,
And the love of the dearest friends grow
small,
But the glory of the Lord is all in ali.

EAST SIDE
WANTS SOME
IMPROVEMENTS

The East Side Improvement associa-
tion met last night at the Lafayette
school building and discussed plans for
the Improvement Of their part of the
city.
Complaint will be made to the city
officials OF the condition OF the alley
between Michigan avenue and Wilcox
street, west of Hickory street. This
alley has never been brought down to
grade and the complaint is made that
the sand is deep that teams can
hardly get through.
Complaint is also made to the city
officials that the new sidewalks are
being put in without the necessary
crosswalks, so that 1t is very difficult
to cross the street with baby car
riage.
There will be another meeting in two
weeks at which other matters of i'm
portance will be taken up.

PROBE MYSTERY
HAMMOND MAN
FOUND DEAD

Benton Harbor. Mich. Oct. S.-The
police of this city are today investigat-
ing the mystery in the death of t. A.
Morgan, a resident of Hammond, Ind.
whose lifeless body was found short
distance north of the Union station.
There is every reason to believe that
Morgan was murdered by compan-
ion, whose identity is unknown to the
sheriff and police.
From all appearances Morgan was
shot on the Pere Marquette tracks and
his body later dragged from the right
of way and placed in a half concealed
position in a ditch along the grade.
At $3.50 at night the officials in the
Union depot heard a shot fired in the
locality where the body was found.
Shortly afterward a man was observed
running down the tracks. but nothing
was thought of the affair until the
discovery of Morgan's body The au-
thorities are now in search of Nor
gan's companion.
Morgan did not have much money in
his possession. 50 the theory that he
was murdered and robbed IS not enter
tained by some. who believe the men
quarreled.
