THE CORDNER MEETINGS.
Will Commence this Evening at Stey-
er's Opera House.

The series of revival meetings which
have been advertised and talked of in
Decorah for some time begin this
Tuesday, evening, at Steyer's opera
house, and will continue each evening
until notice of discontinuance is given.
Mr.. HI. Cordner, a well known evange-
list of unusual success, will conduct the
meetings, who will be assisted by Prof.
Pugh, musical conductor and soloist.
They have been invited to open these
meetings by the two Methodist, the
Congregational and the Baptist
churches, and the Y. M. G. A, all of
which organizations will lend their
assistance to make the meetings sue
cess. Special prayer services have been
held at different places for two weeks
past, preparatory to these meetings,
and christians will put forth every en-
deavor to awaken deeper interest in
christianity. A large chorus choir is
expected to furnish music, and an in
vitation is extended to everyone to at
tend the meetings.

Attempted to Escape.

The three persons who have been
arrested for burglarizing j. H. Haug's
store at Spillville made an attempt to
escape from the county Jail Saturday
night, but were intercepted before their
work was completed. They drove
wedges in the rear of the cell door locks
10 that when the rounds of the Jail
Were made that night and the doors
were tried ii appeared that they were
all safely locked. Then after things
became quiet they got out of their cells
and at the south end of the Jail began
to dig out the bricks with two case
knives and chair legs which they had
concealed. They Clipped out the
bricks and had hole dug nearly
through when they were discovered.
Sheriff Chrlsten had been out in the
country, and upon returning and going
up into the Jail found them sOundly (?)
sleeping, wrapped in their blankets 1t
was lucky discovery, and the proba-
bility is that they will be closely
guarded hereafter.

Lots of High Water.

This section of the country has ex-
perienced very high water for the past
week. The melting snow and an oc-
casional rain has filled the creeks and
river to overfowing, and grave fears of
. dangerous flood We're entertained for
= day or two. The river was higher
than foe several seasons, and news of q
general rise further up the river caused
some anxiety, but the water has now
subsidized so that it is contained in its
regular channel, and all fears of danger
are past for the present at least.
Other points in this and adjoining
states have suffered greatly. A wash
out on the Prairie du Chen division of
the c. M. & st. P. Ry. delayed trains
while bad washOuts near Spencer COM
PEELED them to send passenger trains
via Austin and over the s. NJ division.
AT Rock Rapids 100 acres of ice lies
about the tracks, and at Boone and
Sioux City high water has caused con-
siderable damage. The Mississippi
and Missouri rivers have been causing
alarm and doing lots of damage as well
as other streams throughout this part
of the country, but the water is now
subsiding and danger seems to be past.
