The Maine Legislature has just ad-
journed. 1t had a session of 81 days
mot up to Vermont by one day.. It's
Governor signed FOL acts and 345 reso-
lutions and its appropriations approx
mated $S,500,00O In these latter acts
it outdid Vermont by big majority.
Let those who think our recent SEES
sion as enormous just consider these
figures-Morrisyille News and Citi-
zen.
The question really shouldn't be
what the cost, but whether the states
get the worth of their money. For
instance we should like TO see Yer
mont spend more money. it it could
go for roads, and less for court eX-
penses and petty ofiicialdom.

The Memorial Service

The memorial service OF Prof. T.

by President French. The music was
rendered by quartet composed of
members of the faculty-Miss Tawney

The casket containing the remains
of Mr.. Boughton were borne from the
home OF Mr.. Charles Case on Nebras-

followed by the close friends of the
deceased, the Rev. A. C. McCauley
and his sister, Miss Anna McCauley
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Case and others.
Mr.. and Mrs Case who formerly lived
in Parker and were members of Mr..
Boughton's church at that place mourn
his loss very deeply. Occupying seats
with Mr. and Mrs. McCauley were Mr.
and Mrs. +. l.. Abel their close friends
and old acquaintances of the deceas-
ed
After the opening devotions DIR.
French called on DR.. Carson to say a
few words. DR. Carson spoke from
a very intimate and long acquaintance
with Mr.. Boughton. He spoke espec-
tally of his deeply spiritual life and
close fellowship with Jesus Christ.
In concluding his remarks he read
beautiful prayer of w. f. Gladstone,
concerning the dead in the Lord. DIR
Notestein spoke as a representative of
the faculty, emphasizing Mr. Bough-
tons deep convictions of truth and
duty and his faithful following of his
convictions. The Rev. j. P. Anderson

member of his church. He dweIt on
his humility sincerity and spirit of
helpfulness and comradeship. The
Rev Hugh Robinson spoke as a rep
resentative of the Synod of South Da-
kota. He said he had met Mr..
Boughton when first coming into Sy.
nod, and that he had been welcomed
in a most cordial manner by him.
Since that time they had been warm
friends, although not intimately asso-
ciated. He said he voiced the senti-
ment of the members of Synod gener-
ally in saying that no member of it
was more highly esteemed and honor
ed than Mr.. Boughton.
The underlying note of all the re-
marks were testimonials to the mark
ed goodness and kindness of the man.

had been known to each had shown

Hull. who prepared the measure. the
statements that balloons heretofore had
not been specially provided for. and the
Arkansan at once made a point of order

The burden of the arguments in sup
port of the balloon provision was that
balloons had now become a part of an
efficient army. while some of the op-
ponents maintained that balloons were
not used in the Russo-Japanese war,
the Spanish-American war and the
Boer war. Mr.. Macon insisted that bal
looms had played no considerable part
in warfare.

Mr.. Mann of Illinois, in favoring the
balloon provision, pointed to the sink
