Information of a serious accident that

The bone was broken and the limb wa

Silas Stern is confined to his home
from a strange affliction that befell him
last night. He awoke at his usual hour
this morning, but was unable to speak.
While apparently in good health in
other respects he appears to have no
ability to use of his tongue. Physicians
do not attribute the cause to paralysis,

veins in sympathy with that organ.

like a tropical flower, capable OF growth
in only one cline, nor is 1t like false hair,
to be worn in public and thrown aside in

The address of Mr.. Edmonds was divid-
ed into three parts, in the course OF which
ne undertook to impress upon his hearers
the beauty of simplicity and the univer-
salty OF beauty, the essentially of con-
yiction, the nobility of the unselfsh life
and the truth of growing through SER
vice.
His first message to the young men or
the graduating class was to enjoy life,
disdainng that blase front which has
become characteristic of many persons of
the present day. Tennyson, he said, was
. man who appreciated the universally
of beauty, and he quoted from the poems
of the great laureate to show how he had
found beauty in the simplest phases OF
nature. "A sincere appreciation of beau
ty." he said, lis equivalent to the pos
session of beauty and he advanced the
original thought inward beauty is

speaker; at was school OF conviction y

The will, he said, are evanescent, but
convictions are stable. Then he advanced
the expressions quoted above, stressing
the necessity of convictions in the bush
ness life and the every day life In the So
c;aI world He told his young hearers
that it would be as bad for them to tell
q lie about their examinations as II was
for Dr. Frederick Z. Cook to tell lie
about his alleged discovery OF the north
pole. He referred to conviction as the
anchor of the moral, spiritual and even
the physical man, stating that he has
witnessed in his own experience the de-
cay Of some of the south's eldest and
e,stwhil+ her noblest families because of
the increasing lack in the several genera
tions of this one essential virtue.
Finally he spoke of the Christian school
