Twice-a-week plain dealer. (Cresco, Howard County, Iowa) 1895-1913, 1901-03-08

In the February number of the De-
corah Institute, Elmer W. Cutting gives
list of the graduates of that institu-
ton who are prominent through the
Northwest in law, medicine, theology,
dentistry and bookkeeping. He gives
an excellent reason for their success
in business as follows:
In the opinion of this writer a larger
per cent. of those who have been
students of DEBORAH Institute and
finally have entered one of these fields
have been more successful than can be
said Of the students Of any other like
school. Reasons can be found for this
more far reaching than the instruc-
ton impaired in the school. In the
great minority of instances the
students who have attended this
school and finally gone on to these
higher professions, have in the mean
time been forced to learn some thing
OF practical business in earning their
money to go on with. They must have
been successful in these ventures or
they would never have been able to 60
on. Then also knowledge of business
is one Of the most practical parts Of
any education, and with it and the
knowledge of a profession besides, one
can hardly fail if he puts into his
work the same zeal which he must
have put into his efforts to get thus
| far along.

many tlsitOrS Attracted to session
of the Senate.
Washington, March 6.-Interest in
the proceedings of the senate Tues
day was little less than intense. The
session was practically the first of the
Fifty-seventh congress, that of Mon
day being brief and routine in char
acter.
An immense throng crowded the
galleries, all anxious to witness the
proceedings. Vice President Roose-
welt was the particular magnet which
attracted the crowds to the galleries.
although the desire to see the open
ing exercises of the new senate was
also a special attraction, particularly
to the visitors from out of the city.
AS the golden hands of the ornamen-
tai clock opposite to the presidents
desk indicated the hour of noon Vice
President Roosevelt stepped briskly
from the lobby through the right door
of the chamber to his desk Recog-
nized instantly by the assembled
crowds, he was greeted with wave
Of applause.
The venerable blind chaplain pro-
nounccd brief but feeling invoca-
ton.
AS the vice president assembled to
his desk another great wave of APP
plausc swept over the galleries Then
with a, single sharp tap of the gavel
he called the senate to order.
AS soon as the reading of the Jour
nal had begun Senator Money (AIiss.)
asked that it be suspended and that
he might present his colleague, Sen
ator Mc1.aurin, to take the oath Of
Office.
Senator Morgan (Ala.) objected and
insisted that the reading should pro-
ceed
Senator Moneynrged that the prop
osition he made was Il matter of the
highest privilege.
My understanding is" said the
vice president, that the reading of
the journal takes precedence over all
other matters"
The journal was then read.

papers here make little comment on
the inauguration of President Nc
Kinley at Washington.
The Pail Mall Gazette thinks that
1.-THE speech. with its strong note of
empire, contains lesson for British
pro-Boers.'
1t adds that "a true empire maker
spoke on the subject of Cuba"
The Westminster Gazette finds that
the term "close friendship" applied
to Cuba, as in alternative to annex
alton, is decidedly interesting.

Washington, March 4.-William Nc
Kinley, of Ohio, to-day was indicted
into the presidential once, being the
eighth in the illustrious line of pres
idents of the United States thus hon
ored by the American people with a
second and consecutive term. Stimuli
taneously, Theodore Roosevelt, of
New York, became vice president I
the United States. The ceremony
that marked this second assumption
by President Mckinley of the cares
of state was most impressive and full
of suggestion of the development of
the republic during the past four
years.
Great Parade.
Every presidential Inauguration in
recent years has had its parade, al
ways creditable in size and variety,
and usually having some distinctive
feature. That which followed Pres
ident Mckinley to-day on his return
from the capitol to the white house,
and passed in review there before
him, was different from all its pre-
decessors in the majestic predomi-
nance of the military feature. The
civil contingent was quite up to the
average in point of numbers; yet by
actual count made by the marshals
the men in soldierly uniforms out
numbered the civilians in line by
more than three 10 one,

First of the Federation to Gather
Statistics.

st. Johns Episcopal Church, on Sum-

in the Jersey City Federation of Churches
to begin the actual work of canvassing
among the families DR.. Stoddard's dele
gates have visited few families with
good results. The questions on the cards
distributed have been answered readily.
This gives the workers much encourage
kment.
The Council of the Federation hopes to
have every church begin its work by the
first of the month. This will giVA the
delegates month in which to secure the
statistics, which is considered ample
time. There are thirty-two churches on
the list, and each church has two dele
gates besides the pastor.
Every church has been supplied with
the requisite amount of cards and
pamphlets The clergymen are anxious
to begin their work and all predict sue
cess.
Now that the question of the colored
people has been satisfactorily disposed of,
no more bitches are anticipated Each
delegate, canvassing his respective dis
trict, will note each family of colored
people and give this information to the
pastor, who will, in turn, communicate
with the Council. In this way the coli
ored brethren will know where to visit.

MR.. HEWITT DEAD
City's Poormaster Succumb-
ed Last Night to Gen
eral Debility.
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS SERVICE
His knowledge of the Con-
dition Of the Poor
Invaluable.
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS SERVICE

Poormaster John E. Hewitt died at his
home, No. 2211a York street, at half past
nine o'clock last night, of a complication
of diseases. AT his bedside when he
died, We're his wife and children.
Poormaster Hewitt has been a promi-
nent figure in the city. Few men have
been more closely Identified with the
city's history during more than quar-
ter of a century He was born in New
York City on May 8. 1S41, and came to
this city, with his parents, when he was
ten years old. He attended Public School
butcher and associated in business with
the late William Taylor
When the Civil War broke out he i'm
mediately enlisted in Company G of the
Twenty-first New Jersey Volunteers and
he was soon on his way to the front. He
remained with that body during the war
taking part in the numerous engagements
in which his regiment won fame. AT the
close of the war he returned to this
city. He became an associate member of
the old Volunteer Fire Department and
ran with old No. 3 Hose. Poormaster
Hewitt first conceived the idea of organ
izing Henry Wilson Post, G. A. r., and
he was one of the most active promoters
of that body.
He was appointed poormaster May 1,
1915, and he served in that capacity for
five years when the Board of Aldermen
became Republican and he was ousted.
After being out of office for five years it
was a Republican Board that reappointed
him. He has served continuously since.
In 1886 Mr.. Hewitt was elected to the
Assembly. His principal object in run
ming for the position was to work for
the passage of law. that would take all
the children from the almshouses of the
State and place them in homes. He sue
ceeded in passing the bill. Governor
Griggs appointed a joint commission of
the Senate and House to investigate the
conditions of children in the almshouses.
The committee has reported, and plans
for carrying out Mr.. Hewitt's ideas are
completed.
Mr.. Hewitt has always taken an active
interest in the work of the State chari-
ties Aid Society and though not MEM
Der of that body he attended the meet
ings and gave practical advice to the
members. This advice was always in de-
mand. as he spoke from a practical ex-
perience that could only have been ae-
quired by twenty-five years of labor in
relieving distress and protecting the city
against imposters at the same time No
one could. fool him.
He was also interested grgeat1y in all
cases of abandonment and though not re-
quired to do so, carried every one into
court and prosecuted vigorously the de-
serting husband and brought him to
terms. In this way he saved the city from
supporting many family that would
otherwise have become a charge on the
city.
Mr.. Hewitt has always been an active
Democrat. He was Jealous member of
the Robert Davis Association. He leaves
widow, two sonS-Alexander F. and
John E.-and three daughters-Margaret
a school teacher; Emma who is the wife
ler's office, and Ella N. The funeral ar
rangements have not yet been made.
