"PARSON. LOZIER.
An Old Indianapolitan He Figures I'm Life
ONT West.

An Old IndianapOlitan as He Figures I'm Life
Out West.
Rev. J. Fl. Lozier is thus described by per-
son who has known him all his life. The story
appears in the Detroit Tribune:
ut was he, as boy. who thumped neigh
boring lad for Jesuss SAKE and the incident
hass been placed in story by Edward EgglestoD
who made young Lozier, as '''Bud" Means the
hero of his Hooser Schoolmaster. john as we
all called him, was rough and ready lad, full
of heart and brain, and possessed of courage
that was irdomtable He passed through the
adolescent period. judge. all boys do, and
entered Asbury University, where he was grad
uated with donors
AT the breaking out of the war he proffered
his services to Gov. 0. P. Morton. and that gal
liant patriot selected the then young parson as
one of his aides-de-camp. He remained on the
Governors staff for several months but more
active service to his liking. and he resigned
to take prlvates rank in an Indiana regiment
While serving as private he acted as CORE
spondent for the Cincinnati Gazette, and with a
caustic pen exposed many of the more fragrant
wrongs of which Western soldiers especially
were the victims
record-and it is only fair to say that Parson
Lozier, after carrying a musket six days in q
week, acted as chaplain of his regiment on Sun
days, and this at the earnest solicitation of the
boys who knew him-Lozier returned to Indi-
ana, took charge, and remained in that State
until 1874. when he removed to Iowa. There he
became at once an outspoken opponent of the sa-
looms, and in 1876 was made the Prohibition can
didate for Governor
HE was defeated. But q sentiment was born
of that campaign which resulted eventually in
the adoption of the prohibiting amendment, and
whatever may be said of the genuineness Of
the reform, the honesty of its candidate cannot
be questioned. Lozier has always been at the
head, inspiring his followers, and frequently
stealing victory when defeat was almost assured.
1t was at Webster City, think, that Mr. Lozier's
life was first threatened by mob of drunken
loafers. but though advised to keep himself
out of harms way, the parson, who
knows no such thing as fear, went
out among the crowd, and actually
dared any man to lift hand. am the servant
of God Almighty said Mr.. Lozier, and as such
l dare any of you to make a move toward me-
The crowd was cowed, and no more threats were
made against him there. At Fort Dodge some
what similar experience was his. and, think,
he was fred at from ambush several times, but
he always maintained the same GOODNESS, and
has downed his enemies at all points. just now
he is preaching at Sioux City-a river town
where beer and whisky flow as deep and muddy
as the Missouri river itself-but the old man is
az brave as ever, and strikes herculean blows in
defense of his beloved principles in season and
ont Of season.

succeeded in throwing that little village into a
state OF excitement a day or two ago. They had
evidently been reading some sensational litera-

that they were tired Of the quiet life they were
living, and had gone away and would never be
seen again in that village. These notes they
left in conspicuous places, and then they disap-

parents found the notes, and in very short
time the whole village turned out TO hunt up
