ling experience, which would be severe
strain upon any person and especially 80
for woman of 70 years of age. An Indi-
ana paper contains long and interesting
account of it, saying that the burglar would
soon have ransacked the house had it not
been for the GOODNESS and presence of mind
of Mrs. Foegely, who cleverly diverted his
attention, even while the burglar kept a
revolver at her head, commanding her to
-'keep quiet or will send bullet through
you," until he feared to remain longer.
This is the Mrs. Foegely who was perma-

Bladder disease in 1900, by the prompt use
of DR.. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy

THE Rsz
NATIONAL
~ ORANOE.
Conducted by CHARLES M. GARDNER,
Editor of National Grange. Westheid.
Mass.)
PASSING OF FATHER KELLEY
Idea Of Great National Agricultural
Society Was Born In the Mind
of This Man.

Members OF the Grange in every
state were deeply panied at the news
that Father Kelley" the last survivor
of the original founders of the Grange,
had passed away at his home in Wash
ington, D. c., at the advanced age OF
eighty-seven. His death came but a
few days after his birthday anniver-
sary had been celebrated.
Mr.. Kelley was made secretary of
the National Grange while it consist
ed solely of the founders, their fami-
lies and few friends, and started out
to organize Oranges with his rail
road ticket to Harrisburg and $3.50 OF
Grange funds in his pocket" against
the protestations of his associates.
Handicapped as he necessarily was by
lack of funds and an incomplete rit-
ual, his success was extraordinary
and Oranges soon sprang up as by
magic. At first he made the grave
mistake of going to the large cities
to organize, but he soon learned that
an organization intended to benefit the
farmer must be supported by farmers
and sooner or later the metropolitan
Oranges dropped out Of existence.
At the first representative meeting
of the National Grange, held in Mr.
Kelley's home, in February, 1873, he
was elected secretary for term OF
three years and was reelected twice
at Louisville, KY, in November. 1875,
and in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1S77-the
length of office having been changed
from three years to two years and the
time of meeting from February to No
vember.
He was present, accompanied by
Miss Caroline Hall, at the twenty-ninth
annual session of the National Grange,
held in Worcester, Mass, in Novem-
Der, 1896 Since that time he has at
tended several sessions and Miss Hall
has been present two or three times.
His last appearance at National
Grange was in Washington.
Not only was the idea of great
national agricultural organization born
in the mind of Mr.. Kelley, but it was
his indomitable pluck and untiring
perseverance that kept it going dur
ing its early years, when it was en-
countering the obstacles which we're
to be expected in new organization.
During Mr.. Kelley's last years he
received at his home in Washington
scores of delegations of Patrons from
all parts. of the country, who called
to pay their respects to the venerable
founder. To these visitors he often
recounted the experiences of the early
days, before the Grange had made a
standing for itself and when its mem
bership was small and scattered, quite
in contrast to it's present mighty
power, represented in its nationwide
membership of nearly million people
