The Bowbells tribune., 1900-09-07


Wednesday of last week, appro-
pirate services being conducted
at the house and at the grave by
Rev. Robe. A large concourse OF
friends and neighbors turned out
to pay the last respectful tribute
to the memory of Mrs. Krag, who
was called to her long home at
the early age of 80 years. The
burial took place in the Danish
cemetery four miles west of this
place. Deceased leaves a husband
and four small children to mourn
her loss, and the bereaved ones
have the heartfelt sympathy of
the entire community.
G.. S. Brown of Monticello, Ind,
father-in-law of Milt. Weaver, has
purchased the Lavoy hotel prop
erty in this place, consisting of
three lots fronting on Main street,
together with the hotel and liv-
cry barn buildings situated there
on. Consideration $4,000, Mr..
Brown comes on with his family
and enters on possession of the
property Oct. l.. He is an ex-
perlenced hotel man and, we are
told, contelnplates considerable
Improvement in and about the
house, including new furnishings
throughout, Mr.. and Mrs. Lavoy
retaining the fixtures now in the
house, as also the livery stock
horses and vehicles.

Bank building, the front being
materially raised, an entire new
roof, slanting to the north and
south, taking place of the former
fiat roof and the entira building
sided. We understand he will
also finish the hall inside. Carey's
Magnesia Flexible Cement roof
ing-was used to cover the roof.
County Auditor Nedrud was a
caller at The TRIBUNE office a
few days ago. He announces
himself as a candidate for re-
nomination and election, but
from what we can learn is very
fair and does not propose to press
his suit, but will without hesita-
tion or murmer step down and
out if he becomes satisfied prefer
ence be shown for another.
BY oversight last week we
omitted mention of the fact that
twin baby boys were born to Mr..
and Mrs. Lawrence Larson on
the 9th ult., both the newcomers
being apparently in the best of
health-and spirits-at their
birth. On the following Tuesday,
however, one of the little ones
took sick and died. Mrs. Larson
and the surviving babe are get
ting on nicely. Lawrence has
been the subject OF general con-
graduation, and wears his laurels
with a becoming lpodesty.

TAYLOR MUST ACT SOON.
Louisville, If He Delays
Past Tomorrow.

FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. 9.-Unless
some action regarding the Louisville
agreement is taken by Governor Taylor
today or tomorrow, Or some word sent
to them concerning his intentions, the
Democrats will proceed upon the by
pothesis that he does not intend to take
any action and will 20 ahead with the
organization of their state government
at Louisville. A conference was held
last evening at the Capitol hotel, III
which Governor Beckham, Senator
Blackburn, S. Shackelford and John *.
HendrIck were present.
The delay of Governor Taylor in de-
clarihg himself regarding the Louis
vile agreement was discussed at length
and it was agreed by all present that,
in their opinion, the Democrats mad
waited long enough. 1t was agreed at
Louisville that the legislature should
meet in the capitol building on Mon
day--and IL is now so near that time
that the Democrats are beginning to
think that Governor Taylor may take
no action regarding it within the time
limit set One day more will be allowed
for some intimation from Governor
Taylor, and, if it is not forthcoming,
another state government will be organ
lied at Louisville.
Governor Taylor announced last
night that he had taken no action re
garding he agreement, and that there
was no possible chance of his doing so
before today. He would not say whether
he would take any action today or not.
II is practically certain that the agree
ment will not be accepted by Governor
Taylor as it stands. He desires more
specific promises regarding the repeal of
the Goebel law. and a decision in the
gubernatorial contest by a separate vote
of the legislative houses. 70 this last
the Democrats say they will not agree.
Regarding the repeal of the law, they
claim that no mention was made of a
repeal IN the Louisville conference.

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Ex- Consul Ma
crum' abrupt and hitherto unexplained
departure from his posi- at Pretoria was
accounted for by an intimate personal
friend of his in the following way:
''The ex-consul is very young and
very enthusiastic man, thorough ideal
list. He was SO convinced of the justice
of the Boer cause that he felt he could
not adequately represent the neutral at
titude required by the position of our
government toward the war. He felt
that if he retained his position he could
not act up to his official duties without
infringing on his idealistic instincts.
For while there was sharp conflict
in his mind, which resulted in his abb
rupt departure for America. Mr. Ma
crum told me himself that this was the
reason for his action"
EAST LIVERPOOL, o., Feb. 9.-Ex-
Consul Macrum left for Washington
where he goes to settle mis- affairs with
the state department. He still refuses
to make any statement as to why he left
Pretoria so suddenly. and even avoids
any mention of South Africa at all. He
says he will, in few days, give out a
statement at Washington.

clarcd that she had never had immoral
