ON MEDICINE HAT

Ottawa, Ontario. Dec 2i,-Rudyard
Kiping. according 10 special dis
patch from Medicine Hat. has writ
ten a characteristic letter TO citizens
of that place after being informed
that the town contemplated changing
its name.
so far as | can make out from
what I heard when | was with you
In 1907, and from the clippings you
enclose Mr. Kipling writes, the
chief arguments for the change are
Il That some United States jour
nalIsts have some sort of joke that
Medicine Hat supplies all the bad
weather Of the United States. and
20 That another name would look
better at the head % a prospectus,
Now. as to the charge of brewing
bad weather, etc, ] see no reason on
earth why white men should be
blufled out OF their city's blrthIight
by an imported joke, Accept the
charge joyously and proudly and go
forward proudly as Medicine Hat. the
one city officially recognized as capa-
BILE OF freezing out the United States
and giving the continent cold feet
Believe me, the very name Is an
asset, and as years go on will become
more and more OF an asset 1t has no
duplicate In the world. II makes men
ask questions. II has the qualities
of uniqueness. individuality. associa
tion and power. Above all. it Is the
lawful, original, sweat-and-dust.won
name of the city. and to change It
would be to risk the luck of the city,
to disgust and dishcartcn old tim

At point halt mile east Of the church
it is alleged that the two brothers as
saulted Emory, one from the rear and
the other in front. Emory was mauled
numerically, one of his eyes being
closed tight and he also had bad cut IN
the back of his head, made evidently by
some blunt instrument.
The assault occurred some time be-
tween ten and eleven O'Clock and an
hour afterward the news reached the
sheriff's office by telephone. Sheriff
Shartzer responded Immediately and at
two o'clock Friday morning after a
drive of upwards Of twenty miles both
ArIey and Edgar were in jail in Oakland,
the latter standing trial before the JUS

effort was Of the feeblest character.
My Judgment is now, that Mr.. Ped

might have been, for he was always

sition of the questions at issue. His
industry was tireless and his capacity
for details was boundless. Possessing
all these qualities, so essential to sue
cess. Thomas J. Peddicord attained dis
tinction and professional prominence
only reached by the few.
His great love for children was a
beautiful trait of his character, and his
LOYALTY to his church and work in its
Sunday school were subjects of uniyer-
sal comment and approval among his
neighbors and friends.
We deeply sympathize with his be-
reaved widow and family in their sor-
row
Resolved, That this expression of our
of the character and es-
TEEN in which we held our departed
friend and brother be reported to the
Circuit Court for Garrett county at its
next sitting; that a copy hereof be in
serted IN the county press, and that

the monde plume, IT. Jay" Mr.. Ped
dicord was a member Of the Presbyter-
tan church.
There was rarely a case of impor-
canoe tried in Garrett county that he
did not appear and his practice extend
ed elsewhere.
Mr. PeddicorG' 5 funeral occurred Mon
day afternoon at two O'Clock from the
Oakland Presbyterian church, Rev.
John A. McClelland, OF Grafton, a
former pastor of the church, conducting
the services, assisted by Rev. G. K.
Williamson, pastor Of st. Paul's NJ, Z.
church, of Oakland. Notwithstanding
the bad weather prevailing at the hour
Of the services the church was comforta-
bly, filled with sympathetic friends Of
the family Of Mr. Peddicord. The
members of the bar attended in a body
ana as a mark Of respect of the deceas-
ed every business house in the town
was closed during service at the church.
The service at the church was of a
simple nature, consisting Of the singing
hymn, the reading Of a scripture lesson
by Rev. McClclland and PRAYER by Rev.
Williamson, followed by q sermon de
liverod by MIR. NcCIelIand, who said, in
part
In the first chapter Of jeremiah we
have a remarkable question put to a
Young man. The Lord asked this
Young man what he saw, and the young
man replied, Il see the rod OF an almond
tree. - then comes the words of com
menGation, Thou hast well seen.
One Of the greatest troubles that the
human family has is this difficulty of
seeing. We see things so differently
that sometimes our vision becomes OBJ
scured. The spirit that is in us will al
feet our vision.
1t is said that sometime after the
battle of Waterloo, Wellington invited

Taking the old warrior to a point Of

panorama of the greatest city in the
world. Butcher became engrossed look

There are four ways in which we may
look at things: through the microscope,
the spectroscope, the telescope and the
kaleidoscope.
The microscope magnities, and often
we are tempted to examine our troubles
through this instrument. Mary at the
tomb looking for her Lord used the
microscope, and her tears so magnitied
things that morning she did not recog-
nize the object of her quest. But sup
posing Him to be the gardner cried out,
Sir, if thou hast borne Him hence tell
me where, and / will come and take
! Him away" Let US be careful with
+ the microscope.
The spectroscope is used to examine
| the color of flame or fire so that we
NAV determine what is burning. Jacob
looked at his trouble through the spec
/ troscope, and when his deceitful sons
brought Joseph's coat, which had been
dipped in the blood of beast, poor old
Jacob cried out in agony, This is my
