A COLLEGE, NO MORE.

The fate of "Old Central" the time
honored and once renowned college
of Pella has finally been fixed, and
it is to be shorn of it's higher educa-
tional environments and converted into
an academy or preparatory school
for the Des Moines college. This
may be wise move from business
standpoint but it will bring a pang
to the hearts of many who worked
so hard for its life and growth in the
past. The world moves on, and en-
terprises must be changed to meet
the demands of the present, but time
cannot obliterate the memories that
hover about the old school, or lessen
the great good which this old institu-
ton has done while Iowa has been
developing from waste of prairie
land to the leading commonwealth in
the nation.

SATEn M4MY LITES

During the New Years mass at st.
Patrick's church in st. Louis, when
the edifice was packed even to the
aisles with worshipers, the evergreen
decorations caught fire from light
ed candle and it seemed as though
there must be terrible panic Father
Dempsey stepped forward with up
lifed hands and with mighty voice
commanded all to sit still. He then
explained that the alter was marble
and that after the decorations had
burned the fire would die out from
want of material to destroy. The
congregation than sat still and for
FIVE minutes watched the decorations
burn, and then the fire went out. In
1874 similar accident in the Church
of the Precious Blood, of Holyoke,
Mass, resulted in the death of rs
men in the panic that ensued.

WOODMEN INSTALL.
Modern Woodmen and Royal
Neighbors Install Officers
and Have a Social.

Monday evening was an eventful
one in the history of Camp No. 260
Modern Woodmen of America and
the ladies auxiliary known as the
Royal Neighbors. The evening was
given to the installation of officers
that had been elected to positions
for the ensuing year, and aside from
the program that was interviewer
with the ceremonies of the evening
there was an after-social that was
greatly enjoyed by all the particle
pants.
The exercises of the evening were
of a public nature and were quite
largely attended. 1t will be long
time again before there will be SO
large a crowd in the hall as was
gathered there last evening. The
crowd was closely seated and the
hall was so filed that standing room
was in demand until the evening was
far advanced.
The fore part of the evening was
taken up by program of rather
informal nature and was devoted
largely to the explanation of the
Woodmen and Royal Neighbors.
State Deputy j. S. Whitman made a
very strong plea for the ladies and
his remarks were appreciated.
The ritualistic installation of the
officers of the Woodmen was then
taken up and the service was in
charge of Mr.. Whitman as installing
officer. The following officers were
initiated:
Sam A. Hendryx, V. @.
o. Pinkerton, w. A.
T. G.. Friend, Clerk.
G. E. Cunningham, Banker.
Sheridan Gatlin, Watch.
Robt. McCord, Escort.
j. V. Green, Sentry.
Jas. A. Brown, j. M. Stafford and
f. e. Wheatcraft, Managers.
B. F. Andrews and l.. A. Rodgers,
Physicians.
Rev. A. E. Cory, who hadibeen
absent during the fore part of the
evening, now came forward and gave
brief address on fraternity that was
to the point and much liked. The
ladies then took charge of the lodge
and proceeded to perpetrate sur
prise on the audience by giving a
burlesque installation. 1t was very
cleverly managed and provoked the
laughter of the audience many times
during the performance. After the
burlesque thel ladies proceeded with
the installation of theirlofficers, who
were as follows:
Mrs. w. j. Arnold, Orderly.
Mrs. ID. White, V. o.
Mrs. Sam Hendryx, Marshal.
Mable Barnes, Recorder.
Mrs. Geo. Barnhart, Receiver.
| Mrs B. Masters, Chancellor.
Mrs. Shafer and Mrs. Geo. Yenny,
Managers.
Mrs. o. Pinkerton and Mrs VIM.
Fitzpatrick, Sentinels.
