Obituary-Mrs. Ben H. zenz.

GOD knows why
Alas! not we-that out of all this surging
tide
She stepped aside
Into quiet so profound before her time.
Not rhyme
OF the lyric. labor, ever shall she sing
Never bring
Any hard-wOn guerdon-rare reward of life
Out of strife
Here she lles-we loved her-and we leave
Some bright sphere
Has made room. we know, to take our
' She shall win
Otherwhere what God had meant for her
While the storm
Beats and blows about her early grave
Wei say
Safe and strong her life goes on at Gods
And God knows best"
Nellie Gertrude. daughter of the
late Patrick and Margaret Finnegan,
was born in Liberty, Grant County,
Wisconsin, May 21st. 1884. At the
age of thirteen years she moved with
her parents to Lancaster, and year
later, entered the high school there,
graduating with the class of 1903
She efficiently followed the vocation
of teacher for four years May 9Th,
1908, she was united ia marriage to
Ben Fl Zsnz, one of Lancaster's most
worry young men. They went
Immediately to live on their farm in
the township of Patch Grove. The
young wife's health was not robust
and in the fall of 1910, this home
was disbanded. and Ben took her to
the west hoping the higher altitude
and salubrious air of the mountains
would effect restoration. After six
months residence in Denver Nellie
was no better, and the young couple
returned to this city, stopping on the
way to consult the noted doctors at
Rochester, MINI.
Since that time they have resided
with Mrs. Finnegan. Nothing that
skill could supply or tender love
devise was spared by the devoted
husband and mother to restore to
health the one so dear to both. But
alas all their united tenderness and
devotion was unavailing except to
smooth the pathway of the fading one
to the grave. In childhood's happy.
passing hours, and through the
beautiful days of girlhood Nellie, by
her gentle spirit of kindness. her
conscientious character. and sweetness
of disposition had endeared herself to
all. To her parents and brothers
she was the flower of the flock, "
and beloved as the only daughter and
sister can be. And in the deeper joys
of womanhood, joining hands and
heart with the good man of her choice
she was not held less dear. Her
brother Joseph, after lingering illness.
entered into rest in May 1906 In less
than one year, March 1907, the father
followed. Many years before an
infant daughter had preceded to the
better world. While the shadows still
fell on the eastern side of life. with
love and its glorious promise 'on the
wings of the morning" pleading for
her to stay. April %, 1912, Nellie
crossed her quiet hands on her pure
breast. and sank to rest like weary
child. She was mercifully spared all
pain. and sweetly conversed with her
husband and her mother even as the
brightness of the heavenly city was
dawning on her soul, telling them

FINDS OLD COINS.
Money Buried or Hidden for Centuries
Turns Up Occasionally.

At Vitrolles, in the south of France,
an earthen Jar which contained more
than 1000 "oboli of the wheel" coined
at Massiia (Marseilles) was found.
At Petit Grenouillet, a similar vessel
with many thousand" coins of the
later Roman emperors-among them
$50 pieces with forty-eight differing
reverses of Postumus alone-showed
the variety which makes these buried
boards so interesting to collectors.
At Dompierre (Alier), in ditching for
conduit, a vase containing $500
pieces was dug up; of these 1900 were
OF bronze and the others silver and
billion. representing more than thirty
rulers from Antoine to Postumus. At
Carthage a deposit OF many thou

gona. with others of Italy. France and
Africa, showed how extensive was the
commerce Of that ancient rival of
Rome.

have no value the workmen gave them

them and threw them away. Only
about quarter of the original de-
post was recovered. Curiously. num-
her of double tourmols of the Seven
tenth century were mingled with the
older pieces and the antiquaries have
been unable TO suggest a satisfactory
explanation of the deposit.
