OBITUARY..

was born in Bridgewater, New
Hampshire, July II, 1885. Her
parents were Otis Barney
and Lucy (Klnsman) Barney.
Susan's girlhood was spent in
her fathers home and in the
common school of her day, ex-
cept that when she was still a
girl she had to help out the
family finances by such work
as she could perform, and she
braided hats, made gloves, and
such light work. Later she re-
sided in Lowell, Mass, and
worked in a cotton mill. She
attended an academy at Ca
naan Street, N. H., where she
completed her schooling, and
following that che taught
school very successfully for
several years. After reaching
maturity she was employed as
attendant in the noted hospital
for the insane at Somerville,
Mass.
Miss Barney was married to
Elisha Knowles Morrill, on
June 2, 1858, and they made
their home in East Canaan,
N. H., on farm. Before long
they moved west into 9 tract
of wild land for which Mr.. Nor
ril had traded, located in Chic
kasaw County, Iowa. This
was in 1862. For ten years
they lived on the farm, and
then moved to Charles City,
Floyd County, to educate their
sons. After the oldest son had
graduated from school and
learned a trade, Mr.. Morrill,
moved with his family to Wah-
peton, aud he purchased and
published for years the Rich.
land County Gazette, a paper
established by William Bergen
in 1879, the year tMr. Morrill,
moved to this place! Mrs. Nor
ril has been closely identified
with the history of Wahpeton
ever since, and was held in
universal esteem.
She was closely identified
for good many years with the
local w. C.. T. u, the Ladies
Aid Society of the Methodist
Church, and the w. r. C. In
the local Corps of the latter or
ganization she held every Of
fee, and had also been Past
Department Treasurer. a state
officer of the Relief Corps. All
these offices she occupied with
excellent business and admin
istrative ability. She was a
delegate at large to the Nation
al Encampment at Boston sew
eral years ago. She had also
represented the w. c. T. U. at
state gatherings. When a girl
of fifteen years she experienced
conversion, and was baptised
by a Methodist minister named
Clark. When the family came
to Wahpeton, Mrs. Morrill,
joined the first Methodist class
organized in this place. For
years che was very active in
the church work.
She was a woman of wide
reading, we'll posted about cur
rent events, and recalled &C.
curately much of the history
transpiring during her life
time.
She was taken seriously ill
ten days before her death. and
on Monday afternoon, the goth
passed to her rest after much
suffering. Her ailment was
called acute gastritis. Funeral
services will be held this after
noon at 8 o'clock in the Metho.

IMPROVEMENTS PLANNED
 AT THE HIGH SCHOOL
Grounds to Be Laid Out, and an Ath,
 letie Track Prepared.

At the last regular meeting of the high school board some time was spent in the final adjustment of different ac- counts. With the exception of a single bill now. which will be settled later. the building Is paid for, all claims be- ing cleared up. There is a nice little sum left on hand and the board has wisely decided 10 devote this to the beautifying of the grounds. l.. V. Stewart was appointed a committee of one to secure the services of a cOmpe- tent landscape gardener and have gem eral supervision of the work. Just what the plan of the grounds will be has not yet been decided, as it is thought best to take the gardener into consideration on this point and secure the advantage of his experience in the matter.
 Another matter taken up was the proposed improvement of the athletic grounds. Just at present this improve ment will consist largely in the mak- ing of a. good track for athletics. W. A. Moeur was appointed q committee of one to look after the details of this matter.

TEMPE DEPAR7/NEN7
LITTLE LESS WAFER
 : IN TEMPE CANAL
The Reclamation Service Feels That lt
 Has Repaid It's Loan.

There is a little less water in the Tempe canal today than there has been for some time past, due to the cutting out of all water over and above the amount due the Tempe system. based on the natural flow of the river. Here tofore for some time. since, in fact, the tunnel at the Roosevelt dam was opened. the Tempe canal has been drawing more than its proportion of the natural flow of the river This arrangement was made on account of the fact that for some days last sum- mer. the Tempe system was deprived of any of the natural flow. The recla- nation service has consequently been making up this loss during the past few weeks. 1t has been figured out by those in charge that the water lost by the Tempe system last summer. has now been returnid from the water stored in the reservoir, and from now on Tempe will get only its proportion of the natural flow of the stream and none of the stored water. Superintend- ent Crook received instruction to this effect day before yesterday and the reduction was consequently made yes- terday morning.
