To West Union Wednesday.

1t is expected that quite large
crowd from DEBORAH will accompany
the firemen to West Union next We'd
uesday, to witness the annual field
meet between the fire departments of
West Union, Cresco and DEBORAH. A
special train will leave on the Burling-
ton at ten o'clock i'm the morning, and
arrangements will be made so that
those who wish can go direct from the
train to the grounds, only short dist
ance, and have lunch there. 1t will
doubtless be close contest between
the three towns as all are working
hard, and each department will be in
good training. The DEBORAH City
Bald will accompany the excursion
and furnish music during the day,
with an open air concert in the even.

Chickasaw Mining & Smelling Co.

The above company is incorporated
under the laws of the state of Wash
ington, and is operating what is known
as the "Blue Bird Copper Mine, stu
ated in Latah county, Idaho. The in
corporators are mostly business men of
New Hampton, Iowa, with an eastern
Office at that place. Although incor-
porated less than year ago, yet they
have made wonderful progress in the
development of this mine, and with
most satisfactory results. The shaft is
now down to the depth of 200 feet, with
numerous drifts at different levels, and
all in good raging ore-in fact, for the
last 100 feet or more nothing but ore
has been taken out, the vein being
wider than the shaft and they have now
900 or more tons of ore on The dump.
Mr.. +. S. Jennings, of Spokane, Wash
ington, one of the most reliable mining
experts in the west, visited the mine
the latter part of April, when they
were down only $50 feet, and he esti-
mated that there was over 5000, 900
worth of ore in sight. and that the ore
would average $35 per ton.

Read and Ponder.

Let every boy and girl read and
ponder the following from an ex-
change: There was a boy in college
and he was about to graduate. He
wrote back to the farm for his mother
to come She replied she could not do
so. She said her clothes were worn
out and she had no money to buy new
CUES for the occasion. She had already
turned her skirt twice, and it was
ragged on both sides. The poor old
woman went in her best, which was
not stylish. The commencement was
held in a fashionable church. The
son was prouder of his mother than of
his honors. He walked down the aisle
to the center of the church and saw
her into one of the best seats. There
were tears i'm her eyes and she burst
out weeping as her son pronounced
the valedictory. The president pinned
a badge on his coat, The young man
left the stage and went directly to his
mother. He took off his badge and
pinned it on her dress. There were
tears in her eyes, then he bent over
and kissed her wrinkled face. The
boy animated by that kind of pride
will make a man who will be an honor
to his country and his God. Such a
boy is the glory of our King. May his
number increase until the shadow OF
his lOveliness covers the world.

The old gang waz, put now are knot.
They went into the fife at feerfu ate.
But KUN out the size of a fether-wait.

And the soarly wounded are many a skore;

When old war horses have had their share,
Younger hands shood the burden bare.

For nothing is worse than family brawl.

But for the constitution and freedom

Candidate for Sheriff.

The name of Mr. o. p. Hove, Of
Madison township, is also presented as
a candidate for Sheriff this fall. Mr..
Hove was born June "a, 1862, and has
resided in Winnesheik county ever
since 1886. He has always been a
loyal republican, and has served his
township as Township Trustee for
eight years, and holds the office at
present. He has many friends over
the country who would be glad to see
him secure the. nomination, and he
would doubtless prove faithful officer
if elected.

PRIN. SHORTHAND DEPT.

WHO SHOULD TEACH SHORTHAND?
ANSWER: A teacher who has had
practical experience as a stenographer
in general office-work and reporting.
1t is estimated that fully thirty per
cent. of the shorthand graduates fail to
read their notes when they enter
offices az stenographers. Why is this?
Because the average shorthand teachers
have no knowledge of the require
ments of office work, and have never
realized the, importance of grounding
the student in correct theory, the basis
of speed In giving instruction they
are solely guided by the textbook, and
very often fail to equip students for
correct shorthand work. Upon re-
Election it must be conceded, without
extended argument, that an ex-
perienced, practical stenographer and
reporter, who has the ability to teach,
such as has Miss Anna Slack, the
principal of the shorthand department,
and who is sufficiently accurate and
possesses the requisite speed to perform
all the requirements, in satisfactory
manner, in a first-class law Office, that
such all instructor has a decided ad-
vantage over the merely textbook
teacher, canuot be questioned. The
most reliable shorthand instruction is
given by the teacher who combines
theory with intelligent office practice.
This kind of instruction will enable
students to read their notes readily,
and pave the way to high rate of
speed. Miss Slack acquired her prac-
teal training as stenographer in the
Office of leading attorney in BaIaboo,
Wis, and is thoroughly prepared to
enter the shorthand department of
Valdez Business College as its prin-
cipal

No inferior methods are used; nor are
any of the untried fads introduced. Time
is too precious TO be used IN uncertain ex-
periments.
In the last county examinations, the
students from the academy secured their
certificates without a failure. The
academy motto is the only one that in
sures success. VIZ: Quality OF work
rather than quantity The building has
been thoroughly overhauled. repainted
repapered aud cleaned from garnet TO

For years there has been a tendency.
especially among young men. TO shorten
their time fer study and enter the active
battle Of life early. in order to get a
start"
Experience has shown the fallacy Of
this line of action.
Carefully prepared tables show that
among the men of the past generations,
those who have succeeded have not all
been college-bred. but college men have
had a vastly better opportunity for sue
cess than those not 50 well favored.
President Throeng's estimates made by
a careful examination of the Photographic
OF 15142 noted men showed one-third
more college men. Out of 5000 non-col-
lege students one worked himself up TO
a certain fame. while out of forty grad
yates one win obtain recognition as a
leader among men. From the same tables
we find that among pioneers and eN-
plorers. the college graduate has seven
chances for success to one OF those who
had no college training. Among actors,
the chances are fourteen to one artists.
twenty-one to one; inventors, twenty-five
to one; phnantrophists, thirty-three to

The man who has his mind trained viii
outstrip the unframed thinker in the
struggle Of life nearly every time.
Why is it that in nearly every instance
a foreigner viii be found as superintend-
ent or manager in our large factories and
shops? Simply this; He took time and
pains to develop and train his mind IS
hurried to be able to earn money and
began in an i'll prepared state. The
trained man viii hold the best positions
always. Occasionally we hear young
man complain that he cannot obtain
place to work. for the women are taking
all available places. This is true, but
why?
The boys nave not prepared themselves
thoroughly. while the girls have patient
~ studied and fitted herself for her work;
then she takes a position and holds it
in spite of the lamentations and wailings
of her competitors.
The day mas passed when unframed
and poorly equipped service will be ac-
ceptable. The question now asked, can

for you and an open road to success. If
YOU cannot. then step aside. You are not
wanted in the busy, onward rush of the
