CHARLES kINSMAN

died, at his home in the town of Bel
mont, Saturday, Oct. II, 1900, aged
81 years. Deceased had been sick for
about a year and his death though
very sad was not wholly unexpected

vicinity and had many friends. He
was married less than two years ago
to Miss Miriam Jones, who with her
little boy are left to mourn for a kind
husband and a loving father. He also
leaves a father, mother, three broth

modern society representations. The
contrast was strikingly in favor of
the former, both as to truth and NOR
atty. The latter, as a rule, he most
strongly condemned for their degrad-
ing and immoral tendencies.
His description of the first theatre
erected for Shakespeare, aud the
method Of acting, was most amusing
and instructive; as was also his ac-
count of modern theatre and the
high salaried actors in our social
plays. The lecture was directed to
instruct the hearers to support only
theatres that placed before the people
dramas which were true and moral,
eIevating and educational; and by SO
doing, drive from the stage the cor
rupt and demoraliZing' plays-the
curse Of the present day. DR.. Adams
will be favorably remembered and al
ways welcomed.

1.-THE THEATRE. y"

Dir. Adams sustained his rcputa-
tion as n most interesting and cntcr-
tanning speaker, on Friday evening
in his lecture on "Tho Theatre. -
For nearly two hours he held the
close attention of the large audience
which filled the opera house. He
treated his subject in his customary
attractive and instructive manner
He said all peoples, especially civ
ilized nations who had systcmati2cd
language, had from the earliest per-
iod, some form of drama, wherein
were represented scenes from life.
Tho theatre should be faithful pie
ture of those scenes and persons pre-
scented. The older the drama, he
said, the more simple and true to
nature were the characters represent
ed. He gave us proof, Shakespeare
and other early dramatists.
He compared the old plays with the

Rev. T.. u, Macs, in the song and
praise service, set the key note of the
convention the need Of the Holy
Spirit rs the only real source Of, and
guide to, truth. Prayer and tcsti-
mony followed along this line.
Mr.. Newman, of the American Sun
day School Union, gave cOnsccratcd
common sense as the most pressing
need of every Sunday school worker
today. This will lead to dcIinitcncss
of purpose, determination In action,
and n true desire for results.

Of meeting. by motion, the school
voted to make themselves auxiliary

This makes Pres. Roberts the first

A GLANCE BACK WARD.

We have received through the mail
copies of Mr. La Follcttc's speech in
opening the campaign at SChlitz
Park, Milwaukee, Sept, 10, 1900, En-
closed herewith were copies of n little
folder bearing this inscription:
What Bryan could do If elected
President. He might put the treasury
on n silver basis without authority Of
law"
II being our recollection that this Is
exactly what Mr.. La Toilette wanted
President Cleveland and Secretary
Manning TO do in 1886, we have turn
cd back to the files of The Iowa Couu-
ty Democrat, to refresh our memory,
and this Is what we find;
cit seems that the good old honest
money republicans of the Third Wis
consin district are running an advO-
cate of flat money rs their candidate
for congress In this year of grace
1886. In his acceptance speech dcliv-
cred in this city ON "Wednesday of
last week Mr., La Toilette ccnsurcd
the democratic administration for
being timid about paying the oblign-
tions of the government In deprecated
silver dollars, Some of the leaders
of the party In the district had better
look after the kindergarten states
man. before he makes II mess of their
past record and present professions. -
at was shameful display of dem
agogy for congressman La Toilette TO
snecr at Cleveland and Manning for
bringing "thcir New York Instincts V
with them into the management of the
national treasury departments, New
York democrats have good reason to
feel proud of their record ON the
financial question. From the time
that Governor lloratio Seymour
warned republican legislature
against ropudiating the state debt by
paying II in deprecated currency, the
New York democracy has presented
an unwavcring front In the fight for
honest money and II stable currency,
IL smacks too much of the style of
sam Carey for N candidate for con
gross to snecr at "tho New York in
stincts y of the administration upon
the financial question:
The republicans have the prcsidon-
cy, the Senate, and the Housc of Rep
rcscntativCs: and If the currency
question is not already settled, they
can easily settle it SO that it will stay
settled for n long time to come.

FIRENEN FIGHT FLAMES
A Great Blaze in the Barn Of Robert
James. on Sunday Afternoon.

On Sunday afternoon at about half
past four o'clock, the barn of Robert
James was discovered to be on fire.
The alarm was sounded and in a few
minutes the fire company were at
work trying to save the building.
The barn is 24X36 and there was con-
siderable hay in the loft, where the
fire originated. The flames and
smoke, when discovered, were issuing
from the roof, and soon poured out in
great volumes. Two streams Of water
were turned on, and in a short time
the fire was completely eXtinguishcd.
The upper part Of the building is bad
ly damaged. The loss is covered by
insurance. The fire company did
prompt and efficient service, and fully
demonstrated the importance of hav-
ing such an organization to utilize as
fire protection Mineral Points cX-
ccllcnt system Of watcrworks. No one
knows how the fire started. 1t was
right in the heart Of the city, and it
was fortunate that it was quickly CON
trOllcd.
