THE GOLDEN RULE.

THE INSURANCE PAID.

The Parents of the Late Harry Connard Receive IIis Life Insurance Money —A Peculiar Case.

Tuesday the parents of the late Harry M. Connard were paid the sum of 82,000, the same being the amount for which he was insured in the Railway Mail Clerks' insurance company.

There is an interesting feature to the case which shows that thoughtfulnees for the interests of his parents was present with Mr. Connard even in the last hours of his life, when his sufferings were very great. When he was taken sick he had not yet paid his January assessment, and as he grew worse from the time he was taken down he, of course, had no opportunity to adjust his affairs. By the rules of the company he could set himself right by paying before Feb. 5 what was back. On the morning of Jan.

27,

he evidently realized his condition and that he had but a few more hours to live. He could not talk but by making signs he finally made the attendants at his bedside realize that he wanted his coat. From this he had the papers taken and when the insurance statement came to light he made them understand that he wanted his assessment telegraphed at once to the company. This was done by his brother at 10 o'clock in the morning, and two hours later the unfortunate young man was dead. Had it not been for his thoughtfulness at the last the money would have been lost to his family.

At the Hamilton Club. ::i

Chicago Inter Ocean: President Hope Reed Cody, of the Hamilton club, yesterday received an acceptance from General Law Wallace to speak at the Appomattox day banquet at the Auditorium, March 1U. General Wallace will respond to the toast "Grant.' Theodore Roosevelt will speak to "The Union." If General Joseph Wheeler does not have to go to Manila he will be another Bpeaker at the banquet. Mr. Cody has

juBt

returned

from Washington, where he has been in search of orators. He secured the promise of Judge Evan E. Settle, congressman from the Kentucky district formerly represented by Congressman Breckinridge. Judge Settle's speech will} be on "Lee." The Auditorium theater will have the ballroom tloor placed over the seats, and tables will be spread for 1,000 guests. In the galleries it is expected to seat 3,000 people who want to listen to the speeches.

Mr. Scott's Position.

Richmond Item: Representative Scott of Montgomery countj, says that he is in favor of the reform measures, not because his county is extravagantly or corruptly managed, but (because there are counties and townships in the state which are, and that, therefore, the law is needed. Such a position is that of Wayne's representatives. No Gcandals have attached themselves to our county and township government, but there are counties in this district where there have been scandals and are Bcandals. Out of the sixth district four counties are experiencing the need of township and county reform, Franklin, Hancock, Rush and Shelby,

MAURICE THOMPSON.

He Deliver» a Patriotic and Kloqaent Art«lre»s liefore the Loyal Legion.

Maurice Thompson, of this city, was the principal speaker at the Loyal Legion banquet in Indianapolis Tuesday night and his address was enthusiastically received: "Veterans of the blue, officers and members of the Loyal Legion: I, who am but a scrap raveled from the old gray, offer to you my profound thanks for the warmth that glows in this occasion, and I greet you in the name of American patriotism and Anglo-Sa.^on civilization, which this Legion

BO

fitly

embodies. The perspective of thirtysix years gives a softened and hallowed light by which to interpret the spirit of 1863 and the spirit of this moment. We were calling ourselves enemies when the toil-knotted Angers of Abraham Lincoln were setting the final definition to freedom, but time, which proves all things, has proved that we are not enemies. Kven while we were fighting we recognized the kinship of brotherhood. Why, my friends, on the picket line you brought me coffee and I filled jour pockets with tobacco. You remember it and so do I. The fact is that every battle of that war was but a booming note of emphasis in the expression of AngloAmerican patriotism. While we fought we were but justifying our birth and our breeding. When Abraham Lincoln stood on the field at Gettysburg, and in the awful memory of that battle said, 'The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have conse crated it far beyond our power to add or detract,' he voiced the truth and in extinguishable American spirit, for, my friends, he included both the blue and the gray. He understood and recognized the amazing sincerity of the race. In his igreat and tender heart every drop of American blood was significant of the power to which all mankind must look for freedom "Feeling that it is an honor to be with you and feeling that the time has come when what was a difference be tween us has passed away and melted and fused us into one body, I can say to you that I am hopeful and cheerful but not boastful. My frieDds, the epoch-making forces of history thrill to one another from distance to distance. Trafalgar sounds in unison with

Manila. The ships of Drake send their greeting down the centuries to the fleet of Sampson. There has been no degeneration. After four hundred years of challenge, on sea and on land, supremacy still rests with the Anglo Saxon race. What a response to Lincoln's Gettysburg oration when the storming shout of mingled blue and gray went up the flaming slope of Santiago to inevitable victory with the old flag above them both. It was splendid, it was marvelous. But not the military feat, so much as the compact national spirit, struck the authentic chord. As I said to you, feeling hopeful and cheerful, but not boastful, I greet you also in the name of American progress and growth, know of no way to Bafely build up a pyramid except to widen the base as the top goes higher. We must go higher. The uncontrollable power and increase of life and need imperi' ously demand it. And, as we go aloft we must widen the base. "Of politics in the constricted, parti san sense I did not hint—I cannot hint of here. Get thee behind me, satan But love of country, the pride of race must burn forever and unchangeable in the American heart. Patriotism the word, not politics—patriotism. In patriotism there iB life, in loyalty there is hope, in union there is strength, and in our race and our civilization rests the hope of the world. "Now, my friends, I rise to a ques tion of personalia rivilege, as the mem bers of our legislature are fond of say ing. A few years ago, when I, along with all the rest of the people, about of the south, claimed the right—and said we were going to take it—of hav ing an independent government, you gave me some medicine for my malady It was not sweet medicine: it was bit ter medicine, but it cured me, thank God. Now, I am a stickler for fair play. I want you to give Aguinaldo and his gang the same dose you gave me. I do not want you—I do not want to see you giving the Filipinos wellseasoned consent of the governed, while in my mouth still rests the taste of raw shrapnel and scrambled rninie bullets. "In looking forward, by the light of the past, I think I can foresee some things, and I think that the time is not far Sistant when the Cubans, the Porto Ricans and the Filipinos will, after the fashion of those old confederates, be looking up to the old flag of America as the one star of safety, of hope and of freedom. The whole world is for us to make better and freer. Our country is ours to love. He is the best cosmopolite who loves his native land the best. I love my country, and I am not ashamed of saying, 'Give the eagle room for his wings.' It iB our country wherever our flag can make the permanent and holy splendor of i*s freedom felt. And now, old vetp/ans of the blue, again I thank you for the charm of this, to me, ever memorable occasion."

A QUIET TIME-

Tho Celebration of Washington** Itlrthclay !ty Hi© College StudentH Jh Very Tame.

For the first time in a good many years Washington's birthday has passed quietly in Crawfordsville. The lower classmen of Wabash college was quite undemonstrative and no trouble whatever occured. This unusual condition was due somewhat to the fact that the death of the president of the sophomore class occurred only last week, and also to the fact that Mayor Elmore took care to have any demonstration nipped in the bud. The freshmen banqueted at lleiman's Tuesday night and while the festivities were in progress ofiicer McCoy was sent in to inform the boys that they must retire in good order after the affair. He delivered his message and retired, followed by hisses and groans, to say nothing of a few pickles and a hot cross bun. While the freshmen were banqueting a party of sophs.appeared in front of the place and started to give a yell of defiance. The police immediately put a stop to this and all trouble was averted. Later four young men indulged in the luxury of a yell on the streets and were arrested. They were not jailed, however, as they had the cash to put up to insure their appearance in the mayor's court next morning. At nine o'clock they showed up Bomewhat rattled and after a lecture were excused. Their offense had not been a flagrant one at all and the arreBt was made more for its moral effect than because the demonstration made by the boys warranted it.

In Memoriaui.

"There is no ilock, however watched and tended, but one dead lamb is there."

days.

"Two little hands li'.y o'er Ills breast, Two little feet laid down to rest. Two little eyes in slumber closed, How Badly we miss liini None but God knows." The sweet smile that so often greeted us has changed to an angel's smile. Weep not, for "No breaking heart Is thine,

No keen and thrilling ualu. No wasted cheek where the burning tear Hath rolled and left its stain."

Though we may mourn Those In life the dearest. They shall return to Christ. When thou appearest Soon shall they voice Comfort those now weeping, Bidding rejoice, all in JeBus sleeping.

Why then should our tears roll down, Our hearts be sorely riven? For another gem is in the Savior's crown.

And another soul in heaven.

Unqualified Success of Lydla EL| Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

Mrs. Elizabetit Wheelock, Magnolia, Iowa, in the following letter de« scribcs her recovery from a very critical condition:

Deak Mrs. Pinkiiam:—I have been, taking your Vegetable Compound, and am now ready to sound its praises. It has done wonders for me in relieving me of a tumor. "My health has been poor for three years.

IS

Change of life was working upon me. I was very much bloated and was a bur­

den to myself. Was troubled with smothering spells, also palpitation ol tho heart and that bearing-down feeling, and could not be on my feet much. "I was growing worse all the tixne( until I took your medicine. "After taking three boxes of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Lozenges, the tumor passed from me* "My health has been better ever since, can now walk quite a distance and am troubled no more with palpitation of the heart or bloating. I recommend your medicine to all sufferers from female troubles."
