TOO MANY FADS.

Montezuma Repubh n: The Oska-
loosa Herald comments on the decline
of the apple raising industry in Maha-
ska county. The Herald unwittingly
gives the cause of the decline when
it states that varieties from Seer
many, France, Russia and Canada"
have been introduced here. The
reliable, trustworthy old varieties
have all been abandoned and an
effort made to introduce lot of stuff
that never has nor never will do well
here. The State Agricultural College
has been one of the leaders in this
fad aud the fruit industry has suffer-
ed greatly on account of it. Those
who have replaced the old orchard
with well-tried varieties are reaping
the fruits of their labors Young
orchards of old varieties give great
promies of old time vigor but the
fads are not in it.

REFUSED THE MONEY.

Sully Ledger: Usually it is an easy
matter to get rid of money, but an
instance came under our observation
one day last week which proved the
reverse. A gentleman who resides
here desired to pay off $4,000
mortgage and to that end he wrote
the party who held the mortgage, land
to his surprise received in reply a
refusal to accept the money, the
mortgage not being due for several
years The gentleman who holds the
mortgage stated that he had no use
for the money, that it would not be
possible for him to dispose of it to ad-
vantage, consequently he preferred
the mortgage to the money. When
before did such "lamentable" state
of affairs as this ever exist in this
country? Here is an instance of
So 900 begging for its owner to take
it, and he utterly refuses to have it.
And yet, in the face of such prosper
ity, one can occasionally hear a
calamitous wall.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1901-04-04

all devout members of churches that
regard the Christian year or the an
nual order of the life of Christ; fast
ing and social retirement should be
observed with greater strictness than
in the preceding weeks of Lent, and
special deeds of mercy, charity and
Christian munificence should be en-
gagged in by all.
The first day of Holy Week is call
ed Palm Sunday, in which title there
is pointed reference to the event of
our Lords entry into Jerusalem, and
to the popular greeting accorded by
the people of the city who went forth
to meet him, bearing and strewing
palm branches in his path and shout
ing "Hosannal Blessed is He that
cometh in the name OF the Lord!"

THOSE 19 REASONS.

Waterloo Reporter: The nineteen
reasons which were given in an
anonymous circular why oskaloosa
should not grant an electric railway
company franchise do not appear
from the election returns to have
made much of an impression on the
voters. Out of 1853 votes cast on the
proposition, only 147 were against it.
A light proposition accompany ing the
railway franchise was gwen 1,341
majority. There are few people in
every community who seem to op-
pose all improvements of this char
acter, but it is matter of congratu-
lation that they are not numerous
enough to retard the progress of such
growth. AS long as the franchises
asked for are fair to the public, it re-
quires stretch of imagination to
realize why there is opposition.

ANOTHER BIG MINE.
Norwood Coal Co. Prepares to
Begin Operations.

Des Moines Leader: The Norwood
Coal Co. was organized in this city
recently and will begin at once the
development of another bigIshipping
mine in the Des Moines territory.
The incorporators.a are Samuel and @.
@. Sheppard, who have been instru-
mental in the development of the
Klondyke and other mines, and
James Norwood. The company has
paid in capital of 1000 and has
acquired coal rights onl properties
that have been proven.
The new mine will be located on
the Chicago, Great Western road
about mile north of Grand View
Park and either south or east of the
big Klondyke mine.
With the articles which wereI filed
for record were filed a number of
leases of coal rights to about 4sO
acres of land. This land is located
in section IL and 1S of Delaware
township and lies to the west, south
and east of the land now being work
ed by the Klondike company.
The Chicago, Great Western road
runs directly through the center of
the tract and it is within quarter
of mile of the survey of the pro-
posed Des Moines, Iowa Falls and
Northern road.
1t is claimed that the land has been
fully prospected and that the coal
runs from four to six feet with good
Froof, and with every indication that
the mine will work dry. This is
about the same conditions that have
been found in the Klondyke,
1t is the intention to put down a
double cage shaft at once and to in
stall a modern hosting plant with
top works for handling railroad bus
mess. As soon as the shaft is down
the entries will begin. The plans
contemplate having the mine in op-
Grafton early in the fall. Probably
100 to $50 miners will be worked,
which, with timbermen, drivers, top
works men, cagers, ETC., will mean a
force of nearly 200. The probabili-
ties are that the new company will
confine itself very largely to railroad
contract and shipping trade.

the only being who can wash away
the memory of wrong with flood
of forgiving tears. The most con-
fiding, she is the last to part with

the last to Danish trust. Let man
sink to the lowest depths Of human
degradation; let him wallow in the

The members of Chapter y, T.. L. o.,
sustain the reputation of being ladies of
very dignlfed bearing. But that they can
relax this dignity when occasion demands
was proven on Monday evening, when All
Fools Day was celebrated in an appro,
pirate manner.
Many friends were invited to spend this
evening with the z. L. o. sisters at the
home of Mrs. VIM. Kalbach, and about two
hundred guests were there assembled
The first part of the program was a
model (D p. Il. o. meeting, which included
a mock initiatory ceremony. The candi-
dates, |. ". Cook and A. L. Comstock vert
conducted into the mysteries of the Sister
hood
The officers clad in ghostly attire admin
istered the oaths and charges In a most
solemn manner, and a marked change will
be expected in the lives of the two cand-
dates in accordance with the VOWS taken.
The second part of the program was a
cake-walk in which the following couples
took part:
Frank Morse, Mrs Libbie COKE.
Harry Spencer Miss Berta Lacey.
DIR. Hare, Miss Eva Spencer.
Elmo Hammond, Mrs Barringer.
Judges decided that the second couple
were the most graceful cakewsfkers and to
them was awarded the prize.
The audience found 1t difficult as they
watched the movements and actions Of the
dusky-hued couples, to realize that they
did not belong to the colored race.
The guests expressed themselves as much
pleased with their evenings entertainment
and many hoped that Chapter y would
