new berieved widow. This union was
blessed with eight children, five sons
and three daughters, who are all sur
viving their father. Mr.. and Mrs.
kranz also adopted another boy who
found in them loving foster parents
This boy passed to the great beyond
a few years ago. Mr.. and Mrs. kranz
came to America in 1887 first locating
at St. Paul, Mimi, where they lived
six years. Since 1892 they have lived

which so often occur Out of the full
vigor of life and the best of health.

deserves unsought recognition every

amount of common sense and reason,
somewhat conservative in speech.

Mr.. jacobson was, like the rest Of
our early settlers, a real asset to the
development Of our City as a pioneer
resident, and in seeing these ole
friends pass away, it fills us with re
greet that we, the new generation
have not been able to devise some CON
crete expression Of appreciation .tc
these breakers of the barriers of the
past. as by their tolls they built ul
our country and practically turned ii
over TO US "ready made, to enjoy the
fruit of their labor.
Mr.. jacobson was respected citi-
zen, and up to a few years ago was ev-
err active in the support and protection
of his family. AS years advanced, he
grew feeble, and the last two years
he had to be cared for in a way that
alone a loving wife and a group OF
tender c hildren could do. Fortunate
ly Mr.. jacobson was blessed with such
a family and therefore during his
sinking years received every care that
could be given.
According to his wife's and chill
dren's statement, Mr.. jacobson was
always pleasant and contented all the
time he had his health, and this pleas
antness, which to some degree left him
during his failing health, returned to
him the last week of his life, and when
visited him a couple of days before
he died, he seemed to be just one big
smile. Everybody were so good, he
said, and everything his family did
was just right. Mr. jacobson, whose
mental condition had been very weak
the latter years, was granted the full
, use Of his senses at short intervals af-
ter he took the bed. and at one of
these bright moments, while visiting
him, I was told he had just before l
, came asked one of the girls to pray
for him, that he might go to the heav-
emily home. l then asked him if he
had prayed to God himself to forgive
his sins and save him, to which he said
Eyes, have done so in my weakness
and adding "God is good. Yes, God
is good he again became unconsci

heard Mrs. jacobson so many
times pray, that God would grant her
dear husband a clear moment, with
the use Of his senses, that he might
think of his soul and of God and of
Eternity, and the Lord answered this
prayer in a wonderful way.
Because Of these many prayers, and
because of Gods promise to hear the
supplcation Of the weak, and because
God knows and understands that we do
not know and understand, l believe
our old friend Jacobson has gone to
the home where no one ever grows
old or feeble, and where there will be

One Missionary to Eskimos Made Use
of SeaIskins and Another En-
ployed Only Snow.


One of the queerest churches ever
known was built ~ a missionary on
Blacklead island, in Cumberland
sound, Finding that the EsEimos had
no place in which they could meet
for religious services. the missionary
started to build church of the skins
of seals, no wood being available. The
skins were sewn together and stretch
ed over "girders" of whalebone, empty
provision tins serving as seats.
The cold at one time became so
severe that for many days the Eski-
mos nf Blacklead island were unable
TO procure food for themselves or for
their animals. One night dogs made
their way to the strange church edi-
fee and began consuming it. with the
result that when morning came there
