Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1897-04-13

There has been many saddened
heart i'm Decorah and vicinity during
the past week, for several of our respect
ed residents have received the final sum-
mons and have crossed the river of life
to that home beyond. When we an
nounced in our last issue the sudden
death of Mr. Fred. Reum from apoplexy
on Monday night little did we think
that the next evening we would learn
of similar death to another old resi-
dent-Mr. Andrew Ruffridge, of Free
port; and when, the next evening after
this, the news came that this unerring
finger of death had pointed itself at
Mr.. George Heckle, of Burr Oak, it fell
like cloud upon the people of Decor
ah, and since then we cannot fail to
notice the saddened faces of those who
knew these parties best We thought
and hoped that death in its sweep had
left us for time, but early Saturday
morning comes the saddened intelll-
gence that Miss Halle Headington,
who was among us few days ago
seemingly robust and hearty, had sue
cumbed to typhoid fever after few
days illness and joined the throng in
the better land; and as the week glides
on we hear of others who have passed
away, of whom notices are given be-
low 1t has been seldom that so many
have died within a single week, and
the sympathies of the entire COM
munity are extended to all the be-
reaved ones.

For two or three weeks the newspa-
pers have been reporting the pre-
sence of mysterious airship above
different sections of the country. At
first it was supposed to be fake, but it
is reported by very creditable parties as
having been plainly seen in so many
places that the story is now believed
by many. 1t has visited different
points i'm Kansas, Iowa and Dakota
during the past week, but whenever
seen is travelling rapidly. 1t carries a
huge search light and resembles boat
fastened beneath balloon.

The dedication of the Grant Mauso-

an event worthy of the name of Grant.
The President and his cabinet and
doubtless a considerable number of
Senators and Representatives will go
over from Washington, and foreign
nations have been invited to send war
ships.
IT is not strange that the foreign
ministers at Washington should be
agitated over the Dingley bill. We
cannot take back the trade the Wilson
bill presented to foreign countries with
out injuring those countries more or
less, but we must have that trade, i'm
order that our idle men may be put to
work.

Cunard Liner
NEW YORK, March 10.-Tne steam
ship Aurania, Of the Cunard line which
was supposed to be three days over
due, but which turned out to be only
two days overdue, arrived at her dock
tonight, and an hour afterward dis
charged her paSsenge all of whom
united in declaring that the voyage
was one to be remembered. The Au-
rama left Liverpool on Feb. q last,
and Queenstown the following day She
had been out of sight of the Irish coast
but short time when she encountered
severe weather, which increased in
fierce. hurricane was encountered
on Wednesday, March 8, and with head
seas the vessel was unable to make
more than ninety-nine miles that day.
That portion of the Aurania aft the
bridge is much lower than that of her
sister vessels of the same line and in
the heavy cOmberS that surrounded the
vessel her upper works proved an easy
mark for the waves, with the result
that, Notwithstanding the precautions
to tie everything down, two Of the star
board boats were torn from the daVitS
and driven against the ventilation, and
two Of the Seamen who happened to be
in their way were slightly injured. AL
most at the same time Master at Arms
Nelson was struck by flying tackle
and had his chest injured, and his col
larbOne diSlOcated. Outside Of these
mishaps and the delay she experienced
by reasons Of the squalls and hurri-
canes the Aurania had but an ordinary
