effort to get several colonies Of the religiouo
sect known as "Dunkers" to settle in Ne
braska. General Passenger Agent Eustis Of
the Burlington system has sent out from
Chicago an abundant lot of advertising de-
signed to accomplish the object in view. A
large map of Nebraska has been printed
and the points at which the Dunke:s have
already settled shown and pointed out with
red stars. Several pages of matter de-
scrptive OF Nebraska and with especial notice
OF its agricultural conditions also appear in
the folder.
The Durkers have a number of societies
scattered throughout this state now. They
first located at Falls City, Richardson county,

Elder David Brewer, one of the pioneer
preachers of Iowa. The Falls City orgoniza-
tion has been strong in the denomination
