Porter Coggin.

On Sept IS, 1910, ia the hush Of
early morn. before things temporal were
aroused from their slumber, the great
reaper death again visited the conrnu-
nifty Of Shiloh and bore the beautiful
spirit Of Porter coaein from its DWELL
ing place here to that home Of many
mansions. Loved oncs attended him
and watched with anxiety but at last,
alter an illness Of several days, the
summons came and his loved ones had
to bow in submissivcness.
Porter died in his oath year. He
joined the Methodist Episcopal church
in the summer Of 1905; he was mar
ricd three or four years ago to Miss
Ester Duprcc. He leaves a hcart-broken
wife, one small child, a widowed moth
err and several brothers and sisters to
mourn their loss.
But, loved ones, why mourn? May
you think Of him not as dead but just
beginning life in that celestial realm,
and though he has gone before and can
never cheer US here and make III bur-
dens lighter, we should each day strive
harder to meet him where partings arc
unknown.
To the heart-broken wife we point
her to Him, who hath promised to be
a father to the fatherless and an
husband to the widow. And may she
ever be ready to be led by Him
who doeth all things for the good Of
His children. Loved ones. you should
remember that others, too, have passed
under the rod and our heavenly Father
helped them in their sorrows and He
viii help you also only for the asking.
The remains were laid to rest in New
Chapel cemetery, where many gathered
to pay their last tribute Of respect to their
nuch-loved kinsman and friend. L.

Meteor Strikes Tree in Montana.

Missoula, Mont.-Bert Asher, oper-
ator on the Puget Sound road at
Adair, Mont, has brought here
piece of meteor which struck in the
vicinity of that place at 1890 Sunday
evening. The meteor was seen flash
ing across the sky by several resi-
dents of Adair, and two prospectors
left at once in an attempt to locate it.
They found the place to be about
a quarter of mile from town, and
were guided to the spot by big
glare of light. The meteor had
struck a tree and set it on fire. The
heat was so intense that the meteor
could not be touched for several
hours after it fell. 1t would fill a
half-bushel basket.

black PAGER Who Knows, 2:1014, scored
heavily when he met James A Murphy,
mare Coast Marie, 2:1H, on the field Of

Mr.. Murphy's little mare. AS the two
PAGERS rounded the turn above the quarter
post they looked 10 be neck and neck, and
they swung down the stretch going like
one horse. Who Knows was in the lead by
half length at the finishing post, and the
second heat resulted the same way, but
was won by closer margin Another race
which Who Knows put to his credit was
his brush with DR.. Fersters chestnut mare
Lille Wilkes.
When Mr.. Murphy sent Coast Marie to
the stable he brought out his chestnut trot-
ter Kim, 2:13A, and sent him to measure
strides with Fred Gross's bay trotter
