THE LAST SAD RITES.

The funeral Of Miss Amy Maryland
was held from the Presbyterian church
last Friday afternoon, in charge of the
pastor. Rev. Hugh Robinson, and was
attended bya large of friends
and neighbors Of the family. Six Of
the members of the class of '0S of
the State college, of which the de-
ceased was a member, acted as pail
bearers. The remains were laid to
rest in the family lot in Greenwood
cemetery
Amy Evelyn Maryland was born in
Brookings county, near Fountain, Octo-
Der 1, 1884 and died at Lincoln, Neb..
February II. 1909. After finishing the
county schools sne entered the State
college in the fall Of 1899, but only
took two years work at this time. Dur
Ing the following two years she had a
few months work at the Madison Nor.
NAL. but most Of her time was devoted
to her sick father.
In the spring Of 1903 she began
teaching IA our county schools and
continued sntIl the spring Of 1906,
when che again took op her work al
the Stste seplleesi where ahe received
her B. 8 ds6fee 81 June. 1908. Last

10 obtain her VI. S. degree in American
history. The first semester's work
had just been completed with very high
honors, when she was taken sick on
January % with pleurisy and pneu-
monia. which resulted in her death.
She was a member of the First
Presbyterian church OF this city and
when here was active in the Sabbath
school and Christian Endeavor, as well
as the Y. w. G. A. at the college. The
fact that her picture is shown eight
times in the college annual of 1907.
when she was a junior. shows what
interest she took in the different stu
dent organizations. She was also at
this time vice-president OF the State
O~ratorical association. One of the
pleasant recollections of her young life
was her trip to the Y. W. c. A. con-
ference of the middle western states,
held in Colorado in 1907.
Amy's CHEEKY, bright disposition en-
deared her to the hearts of all with
whom she came in contact. Her en-
thusiasm and love for her school work
were remarkable. but with all her ex-
c~ellence of mind she retained great
womanliness. She was known and
liked by nearly everyone in the city,
and rarely has the death OF a young
person called forth such a general ex-
preston of sympathy and regret. That
her friends were legion was manifested
by the many anxious inquiries during
her illness. She leaves a mother. two
sisters and two brothers to mourn her
loss. but they can be assured that they
are not alone in their sorrow. Her
memory will ever remain green in the
hearts of those who knew her best.

Another mighty trust has us down

most forcibly this week, when Mr..
McGill, proprietor Of the Pleasant Hour

advance the price Of admission from
ten to fifteen cents. All of the big
moving picture film companies in this
country and Europe have organized

and it is impossible for the of
the moving picture shows to do any
thing but advance their price of adj
mission or go out of business. Hence
the change in the price of admission

Britain Aroused and Already a
Campaign to Abolish Lords
Is Being Planned.
ENGLAND FACES A CRISIS
Threats Made Against the King
as Well as the Lords If
the Bill Fails.
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON. November lS.-All Brit
ain is aroused at the motion made in
the house of lords yesterday by Lord
Lansdowne that the lords reject the
budget bill in the shape it has been
presented by the commons. The bill
has been debated for months in Eng
land and was presented to the lords
with practical understanding that the
upper house should reject it at it's
peril. The bill has only reached first
reading in the lords, Lansdowne' mo-
ton being the first made in the course
of the debate.
Already the campaign has been start
ed for the abolishing of the upper
house, to leave Great Britain with only
its elected house and its cabinet. The
government, headed by Premier As
quith, believes that the country is al
most solidly behind it in the matter
and is prepared to appeal to the people.
To bring on general election, il is
believed that Asquith has his resigna-
ton ready to present to the King in
the event of the lord taking the final
action and rejecting the bill. 1t has
long been theory in Great Britain
that matters of revenue and expendi-
ture should originate only in the com
nous and that the upper house had
no right to seriously amend any rev
enue measure
The rejection of the budget bill will
precipitate a crisis in Great Britain
in which even the crown may be i'm
periled. In a recent speech in Scot
land, one of the leaders of the gov
eminent announced that if King Ed
word iuterfered in the passage of the
bill way would be found to curb him
as it is proposed to curb the lords.

BANK MERCER
IS CALLED OFF
Bank of Hawaii Directors Come
to Conclusion That They
Are Better Apart.

The board of directors of the Bank
of Hawaii, by resolution formed at
meeting Saturday, called off the pro-
posed merger between that institution
and the First National Bank of Hawaii.
sit was decided said Clarence IL.
Cooke, head of the Bank of Hawaii
yesterday, "that it was for the best
interest of the community and of the
bank, that the merger be not made.
The meeting today was our first dis.
cussion of the matter with complete
representation on the board of directors.
1t was the opinion of the directors
of the bank that the merger would not
be for the interests of the community.
We thought it better to continue as a
separate institution.
The Bank of Hawaii was the first
of the two institutions to propose the
merger, but as the meeting yesterday
was the fir't attended by all the direc-
tors it was seen that the majority were
in favor of the two banks remaining
as they now are. The directorates of
the two banks have never met to con
slider the question conformity.
Cecil Brown, yesterday, in discussing
the calling off of the merger, said:
80 far as the First National is con.
cerned we are left exactly where we
were before. We will not utilize the
privilege of increasing our capital stock
granted us by the governmental least
for the present. y

NICARAGUAN REBELS
LOSE THEIR LEADER
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, November 49,
President Zelaya of Nicaragua, has
cabled his minister here that General
Romero, the rebel chief of staff, has
been killed in battle with the gov
eminent troops, and that the insurgents
are rctreating toward Bluefelds
Word had reached the state depart
ment recently that the Nicaraguan
revolutionists, under General Estrada,
contemplated the early proclamation Of
the independence of the Atlantic States
of Nicaragua. This meant the estab-
lishment Of new republic, which the
United States government would prob
ably have had TO recognize,
II was undeTstood that the new re-
public would comprise all the terri
tory then peacefully held by the rev.
Olutionists
The state department withheld com
ment on its attitude toward President
Ielnya, of Niearagun, or the revolu,
tionists, bot there was talk Of strong
sentiment in favor Of President BE-
laya's abdication or a curtailment Of
his power

WILDER is TO
LEAVE BENCH
Will Probably Resign Next Year,
After Four Years Service
Is Rounded Out.
(From Thursdays Advertiser.)

Stating that private practise is more
renumerative than the salaries paid to
associate justices of the territorial su.
preme court, Justice Arthur A. Wilder
has expressed his intention of resign
ing that position.
No formal notice has been rendered
Governor Frear as stated by an after
noon paper and it is improbable that
the Governor has left the Territory with
any intention of recommending anyone
for the position which Wilder's resigua.
ton will leave vacant.
Justice Wilder stated yesterday that
he will not leave the bench until next
February, four months from now. He
was sworn in as associate justice on
February Is, 1905, and it may be pos.
sible that he intends to chose the eigh.
teenth of the coming February in order
to round out his four years on the SUI
preme bench.
The statement made that the Governor
is keeping the matter secret is incor.
rect MS Frear has no official resignation
and the tentative notice given him by
Justice Wilder is not included in the
records of the business transacted in
the Governor office. The news should
have come from Wilder.
Wilder's service on the supreme
bench has been an active one and he
has acted as chief justice during Hart
well S absence. The record of the court
shows many opinions written by him in
many important cases.
