In Memoriam

Jeremiah E. Flint, best known
to his friends as Jerry" was born
in Eden, Vermont, March 4th, 1910.
Longfellow SAYS
There is no DEATH what seems so is transition;
This life of mortal breath
Is but the suburb of the life elysian,
Whose portal we call death.
On the morning of May Sd, 1909,
Jerry heard and answered the sum-
mons to enter that life elysian."
In 1854 Jerry with his widowed
mother, one brother and sister,
came with large circle of relatives
to River Falls. Here he lived until
the opening of the Civil War, when
he was among the first to respond
to Abraham Lincoln's call for men.
He enlisted in the 4th Wisconsin In
fantry, which was very soon mounted
and became the 4th Wisconsin
Cavalry. Jerry served as a soldier
in this Regiment during the five
years of war.
On his return, he lived with his
mother, until her death in 1872,
since which time his home in River
Falls has been with his cousins, Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. Pratt.
Thirteen years he was our genial
Postmaster. His business interests
in the West have taken him away
many times, for months, but when
he was at home, it was always River
Falls.
He was ever ready-a tower of
strength"-tender and true, to his
friends in trouble.
Christ said TO his disciples: Il
have called you friends" as though
there could be no higher name given
them. There are many who have
called Jerry friend, and in all these
various circles, in which he has
moved, he will be missed.
The once large circle of relatives
are gathering homeward one by
one"
To-day we laid our friend to rest
under the flag he loved SO we'll and
under the flowers placed by loving
hands.
The night cometh; when next we
meet, it will be Good Morning"
River Falls, May 5th, 1909.

"Caleb West"

The Improvement League enter
tainment at the Congregational
church last Friday evening was we'll
attended and the audience richly
entertained by Mrs. Lille Farms
worth Hubbell's readings from
Caleb West"
Mrs. Hubbell's readings were
clear and forceful and delivered
with a spicy originality which should
win her a place among the foremost
in her profession.
Mrs. Hubbell closed the enter
tainment with a pleasing bear story
in child dialect.
The program was opened with two
excellently rendered songs by the
Normal faculty quartet, composed
of the following teachers: Misses
Eugene Willett and Louise Camp
bell and Messrs. F. M. Jack and
E. F. Wright.

Normal Girls Have Spread

Miss Elaine Williams of the Nor
NAL faculty gave very pretty party
to about twenty of her girl friends
last Saturday evening.
Among the different features of
the evening was one which surprised
US very much. At the strain of the
wedding march, (Black Hawk Waltz
a bridal procession moved down the
stairway. The procession was led
by the flower girl, who carefully laid
flowers in the pathway of the bridal
procession. Directly behind her
came the bride leaning on the arm
of her father. The party was met
at the altar by the groom and the
minister. The minister spoke the
words which made the two one, the
ring service being used.
After the ceremony a short recep-
ton was held which was broken in
to by group of jewellers, who
made merry with bells, horns and
pans. Following this the hostess
and bride served a chafing-dish
luncheon.
The bride was dressed in a very
fetching gown, the waist being of
white dotted swiss and the skirt of
lowered organdie. The groom
was attired in the conventional
black and wore a button-hole bou-
quet.
The bride and groom are both
popular young ladies in Normal
school society and their many
friends join in wishing them hap
Ply and successful life.

DEATHS
MRS. SAMUEL WALES

Mrs. Samuel Wales died on the
third day of May, 1909, at her home
in this city at the age of 81 years.
Miss Elecsa Burt was born in the
state of Massachusetts, in March,
1908, removing to Kent, Ohio, when
she was child. At the latter place
she was married to Mr.. Samuel
Wales on New Years Day, 1914.
They came to the state of Wisconsin
in 1858 to make their home and
settled on the farm near River Falls
which has long been known as the
Wales place." Mr.. Wales died
November 26, 1889, and at a later
date Mrs. Wales and her daughters
removed to the city. Four children
were born to Mr.. and Mrs. Wales of
whom Nealie died in infancy, and
three, Sherlock, Augusta and Ada
survive their parents.
This death removes from our
midst another of the old pioneers
who came to River Falls over a half
century ago, and whose number is
growing sadly less as each year rolls
around. Mrs. Wales was a lifelong
member of the Congregational
church, For the past twenty-five
years she has been afflicted with
blindness which she bore with
Christian fortitude.
The funeral service was held on
Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock at
the house, the Reverend D. B.
Spencer officiating. Interment was
made beside her husband in Green
wood cemetery.

A. w. Stiles, Mayor

A. w. Stiles was elected mayor of
this city at the special election held
on Tuesday, receiving 1913 out of the
.215 votes cast. The ballot was sur
prisingly strong for an election of
an unopposed candidate. The
merits of our new mayor and his
fitness to fill this important Office
are too we'll known to the citizens of
this city to require further comment
here.
DR.. Gallup received IS votes and
four or FIVE other names were
scratched in" but none of them
received more than vote apiece.
Mr.. Stiles is elected to serve until
next April.

League Contest

The annual league contests for
this section were held at Ellsworth
last Friday evening. In past years
all the high schools Of the two
counties have met in contest. But
this year there are two leagues
where before there was one. Our
school is in the western league,
composed of Ellsworth, Hudson,
New Richmond, and River Falls.
At Ellsworth last Friday there
were two speakers from each school,
a boy in the oratorical division and
a girl in the declamatory. The pro-
gram in the declamatory came first
and was as follows:
Wild Zingarella.. ....... Annie Johnson, Hudson
Heart of Old Hickory. -. Marie Bon, Ellsworth
The Deserter .......... Nora Linger, River Falls
Fight With the Aurochs. 80. Kate Vert, New
Richmond
In the oratorical division which
followed the declamatory, the pro-
gram was as follows:
Vindication of Emmett...... :. Miles McNally
New Richmond
The Republic Never Retreats. Frank Robson
Ellsworth
Vindication of Emmett. Henry Wade
Hudson
The Boston Massacre Leslie Kay
River Falls
Both programs were excellent.
New Richmond won them both and
there were few to find fault. In the
boys contest, New Richmond was
clearly first. Mr.. McNally was
splendid in his Interpretation, his
manner and his voice. He will be
heard from in the district contest.
Hudson and RIVER Falls were tied
for second place and in breaking
the tie Hudson got second place
and and River Falls third.
In the girls contest New Rich
mond was not so clearly first. Miss
Vert was good, very good, but so
were the others, and the judges re-
port shows that any one of the first
three might have been first without
spelling the decision. Each of them
was marked first and Miss Linger
of River Falls, received per cent
higher than any other speaker and
an average per cent higher than any
other. Yet she was tied with Miss
Bon, Ellsworth, for second place.
Again in breaking the tie River
Falls was awarded third place. 1t
was worthy contest and an honor
to be ranked with the leaders in it.
New Richmond won it we'll, and
River Falls extends congratulations
and best wishes for the district.
Following is che report of the
judges:

purpose of the day is to inculcate in
the young of the nation a desire for
peace among the nations of the
world by showing them the results
and benefits of a universal disarma-
ment. The date of Peace Day is
the anniversary of the first Hague
Conference held on May Is, 1899.
The fire department was called
out Monday afternoon TO the resi-
dence of |. o. Isaacson on the east

ed when no one was at home, was
caused by a box being placed too
close to the heating stove. AL
though the fire was quickly extin-
guished after the alarm had been
given, the woodwork and furniture
in the room was badly scorched and
with the damage by smoke and wa
ter the loss is estimated at about 500
