a Long illness.
Chesterfield, Eng, Dec. 18.-Lord
Rosebery, the former Liberal premier,
was accorded a great reception when
he appeared on the crowded platform
here. He said that he had come by
Invitation and did not wish TO indulge
in phraseology, but to speak his mind
and offer the Liberals some dispas.
sionate advice. The Liberal party, he
continued, had passed through a long
and trying illness, but was now ap.
preaching convalescence. one Of the
signs of which vas that it had gotten
rid of the Irish alliance. The Liberal
party must now regain unity, though
he would not advise just how this
should be done.

Obituary..

Clara T. Kratz was born Feb. LIST,
1875 in Lincoln twp, Winneshiek

Chicago very suddenly without a
moments warning at 1880 Friday eve,
Dec. goth, 1901; bringing her life to
the age Of % years 10 months and 10
days.
The immediate cause of her death
was heart failure. Clara was converted
to God when young In life and joined
the Evangelical Association and re-
manned faithful until death. She led
q life beyond reprOach.
For some years past she has been
staying with relatives and engaged In
different occupations In Chicago. But
q short time ago she made known her
desire to again return to her home
where she WAS expecting to remain.
Her own plan was to come home after
Christmas. She did come home!
Cold In DEATH! Her loved ones who
looked forth for her return with great
Joy are to-day shedding tears Of great
est grief and sorrow. She has gone to
QUE ever returns,
Clara KrAtz Was true, whole
hearted lady. She had hosts offriends.
Her life was one of sunshine. Her
chief delight was to make others
happy; she thought not 90 much of
herself, but rather forgetting self to
help others. Those who knew her
best we're her best friends.
She leaves 20 mourn her untimely
death loving mother, kind father,
three brothers, four sisters, an aged
grandmother besides many relatives
and friends. Thus our great and pain
full loss Is Heavens eternal gain. She
has gone to Jim the angels. May God
In HisRreat and tender mercy comfort
Ard bind our broken hearts and grant
US happy reunion in that Heavenly
home where pain, parting and sorrow
are unknown.
The remains we're brought to Ridge
way, Iowa, on Tuesday noon, accom-
panied by her father, and Immediate
ly after the arrival was brought to
her home. On Monday eve there were
brief funeral services held in Chicago
and on Thursday morning her remains
we're laid away In the Zion Church
Cemetery near Ridgeway, Iowa. Her
funeral services were conducted by
Rev. Buente assisted by Revs. Schlung
of the N. e. church and Lang, Of
Silver Creek, Iowa.
We lay thee in thy silent tomb
Sweet blossom of day;
We just began to view thy bloom
When thou vert called away.
Friendship and love have done their
[last
And now can do no more;
The bitterness of death is past,

Thou minglest now in that bright
[throng

And join'st the everlasting song
With those before thee gone.

new York stock Market

New York. August 3.-Prices opened
higher this morning under h opera
tons OF the small attendance Of profess
sional traders on the board who appar-
entity were influenced by the belief that
the renewed conference on the steel
strike gave promise of a compromise
and a resumption of work. Both the
United States Steel stocks rose a point
over last night and St. a rose a
point and a fraction. Prices drifted
aimleSsly for the greater part of the
session. There vas an of 3z

planned reason and gains of a point or
more in United States Leather prefer

conspicuous stocks.

Strengthening factor, but the increase
in cash largely Offset it's effect on the

the last, through small, seemed rather
urgent. and carried prices rather pre-
cipitately to the lowest level of the day.
Inc CLOSING ltSeiI was weak ana near
the loweSt.
The railroad bond market was as far
from rejecting any demand for securi-
ties as that for stocks and was dull
and heavy throughout. Bankers do not
feel safe to make loans freely to be used
for speculative purposes in the stock
market, pending the demand from the
interior for crop moving. The sluggish
and irregular action of the stock mar
ket this week affords an indica ton that
syndicates and larger interests" are
not inclined to contest these obstacles
for the present and are disposed to let
the stock market lie fallow.
The railroad bond market has been as
dull and narrow as stocks, but has
shown evidence of small investment
demand. United States new AS have
declined n on call during the week.
The total sales of stocks today were
161. 900 shares.

The marriage of Mr.. S. H. Anderson

nounced for Wednesday night, August
9TH. The Sroom is a prominent young

their mother who died only a short time
ago.
L regret TO notice the serious illness
of young Chas Aycock, son of the gov
ernor. He has been at the hospital of
his uncle, DR.. Albert Anderson, for the
past week. His condition at present is
serious and his physicians give out
very little hope for his The
governor a been with him most of the
time since Wednesday.
The tobacco sales yesterday were
very good for this season of the year.
There has been sold here since the
opening on Thursday about 200, 600
pounds. There will be no heavy sales
before the 18TH of August. Farmers
nave not finished curing tobacco and so
nave very little time to get their cured
crop ready for market at this time.

fore him, Charley Bentley, a negro,

The jury returned a verdict fixing the
responsibility Of the murder on Charley

Members of the mob learned of the
verdict and a crowd quickly gathered
around the prisoner and ~unheeding his
pleas for mercy, hanged him to the
limb of a tree.
The murder was committed early in
the morning while Vann and his wife
and child were asleep in a camp three
miles from Leeds. Vann's skull was
crushed with a rock and his slayer then
grabbed Mrs. Williams around the
throat, but she screamed for help and
the negro ran into the woods. a hole
in the bottom Of Bentley's shoe enabled
