A Sad Death.

This community was shocked on
Friday afternoon to learn of the d. ath
of Roy Hislop. He was apparently a
robust, healthy young mat, and it was
known to only few that he was ill.
For the past three weeks he had been
feeling poorly and his weight decreased
rapidly, but it was not thought to be
anything serious. On Tuesday he was
about town, but was taken worse that
day and from then until Friday was
very low with brain fever, which
caused his death shortly after two
O'Clock Friday afternoon. Roy was
born Dec Is, 1859, and grew up to
manhood in DEBORAH, and for several
years past had been trusty, faithful
employe of the Republican office. He
was kind hearted, genial and accom-
modating, popular favorite with all
his acquaintance, ami the circum-
stances surrounding his death are very
sad.
The funeral services were held from
the Baptist church Sunday afternoon
Rev. j. w. Allen officiating, attended
by representatives of the city press as
pail bearers, and by the entile fire de-
partment, of which he was an honored
member, as body guard. 1t was one
of the largest funerals held in DEBORAH
for several years, and lorg procession
followed his remains to their final rest
ing place in Phelps cemetery. The
floral offerings were numerous and
very beautiful.

Wins First Prize.

At the annual meeting of the Iowa
State Photographers Association at
Des Moines last week +. w. Spur was
ahe happy winner of first prize in class
"A, for the finest display of photo
graphs. This puts him at the top
notch among Iowa photographers, and
the gold medal which he receives is a
recognition of merit that most any
photographer would prize. His dis
play was indeed handsome one, and
contained some elegant specimens OF
work. He also won third prize, a
bronze medal, in the display of nina
lures.

To Clean Mating.

Few things can be used TO clean mat
ting; salt and soda have been used, but
experience has taught that the best
way is to have the mating thoroughly
swept, and then go over it with a soIu.
ton of warm water with Gold Dust
Washing Powder dissolved in it; it is
best to use wooden cloth; table
spoonful of Gold Dust Washing Powder
TO quart of water is the proportion;
wiring the cloth almost, dry and rub
quickly, but the moment the water
gets dirty, change ii for fresh. follow
the wet cloth for dry one. This
cleans perfectly.

Life In East London.

The dominant note of east London is
that II is hive of working bees. There
are, ii is true. few drones in il. They
are not the fat and luxurious drones OF
the other London, those who live In
luxury without labor and are down
laden with the curse of idleness. Our
drones, the east London drones. are the
residuum, the lees of humanity, who can
not and will not work. They are misera-
BILE, half starved, skulking drones. They
beg, they thieve, they do anything with
a willing mind so long as II is not work.
They dwell In the slums. They are, In
the language Of the day, the 'submerg-
ed" but all the kings horses and all the
kings men cannot drag them out of the
slough, nor can any river-not ALBANIA
or Pharpar or even the Jordan itself
cleanse the Augean stable of their MUD.
The helping hand grows tired Of pulling
and tugging at them. They will not
come. They sink back into their Male
boige: the black mud closes over their
heads. Let then be.-Walter Besant -
Century.
