something equally important: be just

who has been unfairly and untruth-

Honolulu 5 Chinatown got fresh

Liberty News, the organ of the local

grounds for an argument that as all

own business and letting the Emperor

One of these proposed amendments,
advanced in tine hearings being gwen

other is that the rates on water shall

Three Licensed Bird Men

Each aviator carries license as a

Club of America, licenses which give
them the right, under the auspices of
the famous club, to traverse the almost
iimitless spaces above the earth, but,
despite the fact that the ar limits
are almost unfathomable, the height to
which these mechanical birds may as

Obituary.

To grasp the pen to write a few
words in memory of a friend, who
has passed beyond the realms OF
this life, is a task without its
pleasures; yet when the last words
are to be said of her, | want to pay
my tribute to her memory.
Bertha Sheriff. was born near
Hogan, Iron county, Mo-, Novem-
Der Goth, 1895, and answered the
call of her Maker, April 18th,
1910.
A light has gone out in the
households bright star has
vanished from a happy home.
Among the numberless proverbs
we hear in our daily conversations
we are taught that death loves a
shining mark, and that the good
die young.
She was kind and generous,
loyal to her friends and possessed
OF that love for parents, sisters
and brothers which makes one
loved and admired by all-for
those who knew her best, loved
her most.
Ills hard for us to understand
It's not for. US to understand why
such a life should be cut off in its
prime. 1t is enough for us to
know her work is done and that
her soul has taken it's flight to Him
who gave it.
Living, Bertha was ever present
comfort and Joy. Dead, her per-
sonal absence may be, must be,
tor the time the saddest of sad
sorrows. But the fragrance of her
sweet memory will, always and
eyermore, fill the space she once
occupied so lovingly and loved.
The recollection Of a great Joy,
continually returning, is a great
comfort, and cannot die.
"You may break, you may crush the vase as
you will,
The scent Of the roses will cling to it still.n
Mother, father, sisters, brothers,
friends, weep not because of the
vacant chair at the freside; weer
not because this vacant place can
never be filed; but take comfort,

Hogan Items.

Well, Mr.. Editor, will send you
a few items. News is rather
scarce We have sunshine again
after a week of rough weather.
Mr.. j. A. Reese and A. E. Bisch
returned Sunday from a fishing
trip of a few days at the st.
Francis river. They report fish
shoaling and not biting good but
had very good luck considering
the weather. The river was rising
fast when they left Sunday and
was past fording.
Mrs. A. E. Shy, of Sabula, is
visiting her son, S. S. Shy, near
Hogan.
Mr.. T. 0. Keefe, of ST. Louis,
arrived in Hogan Monday. He
will be with j. j. Hourihan while
here.
Quite a number of hoboes are
passing daily. There were eight
in town this morning.
A. E. Bisch is looking for a
place to locate his saw mill. He
has several good offers.
Operator P. E. Theisen, who has
been night operator at this place
for the past four months, has
been relieved, operator Kohmer
taking his place.
Bro. Fortune preach es in Hogan
Sunday and Monday nights.
j. j. Hourihan was in town
Monday.
The gang of Greeks who have
been located here for the past two
weeks, has been discharged and
returned to st. Louis.
]. A. Reese is here from Okla
homa on a leave of absence. That
country seems to agree with him.
Mr.. Gus Apostopolos was here
Sunday. He is interpreter for a
large gang in Valleys Mines,
Ills.
We are all sorry to hear of the
death of our old -time friend. Her
man Davis. He was much liked
by all and always had a good
word for everyone. If he had an
enemy, no n ever knew it. We
extend our sympathy to his fam
lily and his memory will always be
a pleasure to those who knew him
well. MAuDE.
