MRS. MARY BRADLEY.

In the death of Mrs. Mary Brad
ley her husband lost loving faith
full wife; her children lost ten
der, patient mother; and those
about her lost an excellent neigh
Dor Her Christian character was
OF the positive type-unpretentious,
calm, but at the last triumphant.
Certainly her husband and children,
recalling her life, will rise up and
call her blessed, not only for what
she did in life, but for what she
was, faithful, sincere, industrious,
gentle, true. This old world can
i'll afford to give up its noble wo-
men, especially the noble wives and
mothers-the two characters most
essential TO the well being of the
race But in his loss, her husand
knows that she has departed to be
with Jesus. which is far better for
any saint; her children can realize
that their mothers hands which so
often ministered to their wants and
soothed their aching brows, have
ceased their labor in order that the
noble spirit that prompted her kind
ness may go from earth and be at
rest with God. Since such things
are true of Gods saints
why do we mourn departing
friends, .......
Or shake at deaths alarms?
'Tis but a voice that Jesus sends,
To call them to His arms"
One Who Knew Her.

ECUADOR WILL HOLD TO
 GALAPAGOS ISLANDS

Guayaquil, Ecuador. January 21.- President-elect Estrada called together the more prominent citizens of this city today and discussed with them an intimation from ne United States that the Galapagos Islands might be leased for term of s9 years for the sum of $15,000,000. Those present were unan- imous in the feeling that such a pro posal should be rejected as the ac- ceptance of 1t would be unpatriotic. The Galapagos Islands, IS in number, are 60J miles from the coast of Ecua- dor, to wnlcn they belong. They provide several good anc-.orages and may be desirable as a naval base.
 The possession of the Galapagos, be- cause of their strategical position near the Panama canal. as been a matter of diplomatic discussion for several years.
