THE GOLDEN RULE.

TWENTIETH CENTURY CLASS.

Eighteen Young People are Graduated From the Crawfordsvllle High School.

The graduating exercises of the twentieth century class of the Crawfordsville high school took place Tuesday night at Music Hall,and while short were of a highly creditable and interesting character. The hall was filled by a representative audience and the closest attention was paid to the several performances by the graduates. The stage was handsomely adorned with palms and flowers and before the stage opening was hung an artistically draped lattice curtain of pink and white ribbons, the class colors. This was suspended some ten feet from the flies and produced a very pretty and striking effect. Seats for the graduates were ranged in a semi-circle about the stage and during the rendition of the march by the orchestra the class filed in, the young ladies all wearing gowns of simple white and carrying American Beauty roses. The invocation by Dr. H. L. Nave was short, impressive, and appropriate, and was followed by the salutatory address by the class president, Mr. Clyde L. Brower. Mr. Brower very fittingly presented the class to the audience in a speech replete with bright prophecies for its future.

The first number on the programme was a baritone solo by Mr. Edward H. Hutchinson, and those who had not heard him for some time previous were astonished and delighted at the progress he has made of late. Possessed of a magnificent voice of peculiar sweetness and remarkable range Mr. Hutchinson controls it masterfully. His interpretation is excellent and, what is remarkable in young singers, never for a moment appeared to approach the limit of his power.

Miss Mary Harding, who followed, delivered in a very pleasing manner a decidedly well written oration on "The American Woman," a superb creature all will agree with Miss Harding in pronouncing the ripest product of the new civilization. Miss Harding has a splendid presence and a pleasing address and very aptly typified her subject.

Miss Mary Dee Snyder gave a dramatic reading from "David Copperfield," the selection being scenes from the courtship and married life of David and Dora. Whiie Miss Snyder could pbssibly have chosen no more difficult reading she was perfectly equal to the occasion and thoroughly won the audi ence. She has dramatic talent of a high order and carries her part with a spirit which enlists the liveliest sympathy of her audience.

Miss Musa Spurrier, who followed with an oration on "Burns a Moral Teacher," was so unfortunate as to suffer from a heavy cold which all but rendered her appearance impossible. However, her carefully prepared and scholarly oration was delivered with a force and feeling which slightly indicated what might have been expected had she been in her usual health.

Miss Emma Whitenack rendered a violin solo with an execution that was admirable and demonstrated that she was mistress of the most charming of the stringed instruments. She plays with perfect composure and with a sympathy and sweetness remarkable in a young player.

The concluding number on the programme was the oration, "The American Ideal," by Mr. Harry E. Gill. Mr. Gill had a sensible and practical oration as well as one that was of a high tone. His delivery was forceful and very pleasing and carried with it a conviction of the speaker's earnestness and sincerity.

All the numbers were enthusiastically applauded and the audience showed itself well pleased with the programme. For the vocal and instrumental numbers Mr. Frank Reed was accompanist, faultless as usual. The piano used was furnished by the courtesy of George F. Hughes.

Miss Anna Willson, principal of the high school, presided during the evening and introduced the performers. Upon the conclusion of the programme Supt. Millis made a few remarks commending the class for its thorough work during the high school course and announced the honors as follows:

First Honors—Wright J. Seller. Honorable Mention Marguerite Dice, Nellie A. McKee, Mabel B. Galey, Marjorie Calvin, Mary Harding, Musa Spurrier.

It was announced that others would have also been entitled to honors had it not been for unfortunate preparation. It seems that several of the graduates, notably Miss Mary Snyder, entered the high school under a decided disadvantage in several branches and accordingly lost during the first year's work the honors to which the balance of their course clearly entitled them. The honors last Tuesday were for the whole course of four years and not for the senior year as some seemed to think.

Prof. Millis made special mention of fact that Miss Marjorie Calvin, of the graduating class, had been neither absent nor tardy for eight years. Diplomas were awarded as follows: Clyde L. Brower, Edward H. Hutchinson, Marjorie Calvin, Nellie Ader McKee, Marguerite Dice, Wright J. Seller, Walter J. Drury, Mabel Lorene Snyder, Wallace Otto Everson, Mary Dee Snyder, Mabel B. Galey, Katie Mayc Spruhan, Harry E. Gill, Musa Spurrier, Mary Harding, Charles C. Wheat, Florence Hawley, Emma Whitenack.

The gradings in the other high school classes have been announced. For work in the junior year Miss Shirley Maxwell took first and Miss Mary Ristine second. Miss Donna Clodfelter was first for the work in the sophomore year and Miss Sarah Yount and Miss June Eddingfield tied for the second place. In the freshman work Miss Lola Davidson was first and Miss Mary Thompson second.

May Return to the States. The Army and Navy Journal an nounces that Lieut. Charies D. Herron has been transfered from the 23 rd regi ment to the 18th with which he served when promoted to a first lieutenancy The 18th is about to return to the United States and Lieut. Herron will probably accompany it when it sails in July.

In a letter to his father Lieut. Herron states that he is greatly enjoying his furlough in Japan. At one point he met as the United States consul, an Indiana man named Harris, a citizen of Goshen, who inquired feelingly in regard to W. W. Morgan, M. B. Waugh and John L. Davis whom he knew while serving as a member of the state agricultural board. In Japan Lieut. Herron met a party of Vassar girls who are touring the country for sight seeing and he lost no time in affiliating himself with the organization. At last accounts he was in clover over hig chapeau,

Sues Her Brothers.

Reeves & Jones, attorneys for Mrs. Mary A. Killen, last Tuesday filed suit against Jerome Marts, William MartB, Chauncey Marts and Otis Marts, her brothers, demanding damages in the sum of $4,400. The complaint alleges that the father of the plaintiff and the defendant, Samuel Marts, died in 1884, leaving an estate worth over $7,000. It is alleged that the defendants conspired to defraud the plaintiff out of her share and have thus far withheld from her her one-fifth interest in the property and the interest. On May 29 it is assesrted that demand was made on the defendants for the plaintiff's interest in the estate and satisfaction was refused. Accordingly the suit was brought. '1

Death of Arista Inlow.

Word has been received here of the death at Decatur, 111., of Arista Inlow. The body was brought here Tuesday. After a short service at the First M. E. church the body was deposited in the receiving vault at Oak Hill, the interment to take place at a later day. The deceased was raised in this city and was here married to Miss Uda Guthrie, daughter of Silas Guthrie. She survives him. He was a member of the Modern Woodmen in which order he had $3,000 insurance

Dismissed.

The cases of George Sandford and Ambrose Evans against George Swisher have been dismissed. Thus endeth the Walnut township graveyard cases.

Quick Relief for Asthma.

Miss Maude Dickens, Parsons, Kans., writes: "I suffered eight years with asthma in its worst form. I had several attacks during the last year and was not expected to live through them. I began using Foley's Honey and Tar and it has never failed to give immediate relief." Nye & Booe druggists.

WALTER HAD THE MEASLES

And In His Delirium He Swiped a Diamond Ring at the Vancleave Boarding House.

Walter Edwards is a thirteen year old lad whose mother has been employed as a domestic at the Vancleave boarding house on Pike street. A short time ago Master Walter was stricken down in the bloom of his youth and beauty with that foil destroyer, the measles. As he lay grunting and groaning upon his bed of anguish his juvenile mind was busy with other thoughts than those of his bodily ailment. He thought seriously upon the great law of recompense and after awhile he began to figure out that he had something coming to him for his present pain. The only thing in sight was a ring belonging to the proprietor of the boarding house and Master Walter gathered this in. At least he is charged with having gathered it in and several small boyB have been found by the police who assert that Walter showed it to them and said he was going to give it to his dearie "who worked at the match factory." Monday the police throw the grab hooks into little Walter and he now has a big room all to himself at the county jail. He didn't have the ring on him when found and all efforts to pump him were perfectly fruitless.

The ring was worth $25, so Mr. Vancleave says, being a gold ring set with six diamond, none of which weighed over three carats. In fact most of them were rather small.

Bride's looses—Funeral Wreaths. (Contributed byMattie Dyer ISritts.) October 4th, last year, the wedding of Flora Puson and Thomas Allen Smith, of Indianapolis, was solemnized at the Baptist church in the presence of a large concourse of friends. The ushers were four in number, but the bridal party was unattended, except by two dainty little maidens, Misses Sylvia Fuson and Marguerite Given, who, bearing baskets of roses, preceded the bride to the altar, where they were met by the groom and the officiating clergyman, Rev. A. W. Runyan, who performed the ceremony impressively, adding a glowing tribute to the father of the bride, Rev. G. P. Fuson, as a monument to whose faithful labors the new Baptist church stands in this city to-day. After the marriage the bride and groom received their friends in the church parlors. Both parlors and the church proper were decorated by the young people's society, as a loving ser vice to an earnest member and to the memory of her beloved father. Mr and Mrs. Smith then went to Indianap' olis to reside.

Eight months from that happy wed' ding day, June 4, 1901, a solemn concourse again gathered at the church, to attend the funeral of Mrs. Smith. Again the same tiny maidens went before the bride, but now they bore snow white blossoms while she lay pale and silent in the velvet casket, and the hearts which had beat high at the merry marriage bells, were bowed and heavy with sorrow. Four weeks after her wedding Mrs. Smith was taken very ill with typhoid fever and brought back to her mother's house to leave it no more until she was borne to her burial. The fever was conquered, but an old disease lurking in her system developed rapidly, and soou ended the sweet young life.

The funeral was very largely attended and the services peculiarly impressive. Those with whose voices her own had 80 often blended in songs of praise, now sang for her "Rest in Peace," and "Light After Darkness," in tones most sweet yet tremulous with sorrow as they remembered the vacant place in the choir. Pastor Runyan spoke with deep feeling, noting the singular fact that the three most important events of Flora's life had taken place at that sacred altar. There, Oct. 4th, 1887, she was baptised and gave her heart to God. There, Oct. 4th, thirteen years later, on the same spot if not in the same building, she gave her heart to her husband in marriage vows. There, June 4th, eight months after, she was borne to her long rest, and the song-service to which she was so faithful here, through sun and storm, in sickness and in health, Is continued on the other shore where father, brother and many loved ones were waiting to give her joyouB welcome.

The deepest sympathy of the whole conimunity is given to the bereaved husband, the mother and brothers and sisters who are left. The interment was at the Odd Fellows' cemetery, where, beside her noble father, Flora will sleep until we all meet again to part no more.

Charge Withdrawn.

The trespass case filed against Lee Philpot by Sylvester Putney has been dismissed. It was shown that Philpot was not within seventeen miles of Putney's shop when that place was entered.

EDWARD HUSS, a well known business man, of Salisbury, Mo., writes: "I wish to say for the benefit of others, that I was a sufferer from lumbago and kidney trouble, and all the remedies I took gave me no relief. I was induced to try Foley's Kidney Cure, and after tho-use of three bottles, I am cured." Nye & Booe druggists.
