BISHOP MORRISON.
Head Of the Church in Iowa
Visits St. James Parish.

The Rt. Rev, Theodore N, Morrison,
Bishop of the Diocese of Iowa; was in
the city over Sunday for mis- annual
visitation to st. James church. The
Bishop celebrated the Holy Com
munion at 1880 a. m. At morning pray
er, 1880, he was greeted by an excel
lent congregation. At this service the
Bishop spoke of the needs Of the do
cese, pleading for help in carrying on
the missionary work of the church
within the state, for which he is a.
rectly responsible. The Bishop be-
lieves that the people will be more
than willing to give of their means to
the support of this work when they
understand the situation, and hence
he has begun a systematic campaign
of education along this line. As a re-
suit of his work yesterday st. James
Parish raised $1O7S5 to help him in
his work.
In the afternoon Bishop Morrison
addressed a Mems Meeting at the Y
M. c. A. which was we'll attended, Civ.
ing helpful and inspiring address,
said by many to have been one Of the
best ever delivered before a Mems
| 1naofing In tho Aocooiotio roornc II
was a strong appeal to make the spir.
itual, and not the physical, the real
master of life, and Righteousness our
chief concern. Bishop Morrison takes
great interest in these Mems meetings
and never declines an invitation to
address one when possible to accept
He is not what is usually called an elo'
quent speaker, but is unusually force
full and direct in his appeal
At the evening meeting at 1880, the
Bishop was met by large congrega
ton that completely filled the church
The sermon was an especially forceful
and thoughtful discourse upon the
character of Abraham At the close
of the sermon the rector, Rev. w. H
| Frost, presented a class of eight for
confirmation, after which the Bishop
addressed a few we'll chosen words
of advice to the newly confirmed, and
pronounced the benediction.
All of the services of the day were
characterized with a spirit of rever
ence and devotion. An incident of nc
little interest to the members of the
st. James church was the appearance
of the choir in new and proper vest
ments.
! Bishop Morrison was entertained
during his stay in the city at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Warren Kalbach. He
left this morning on the Central fol-
his visitation to the Marshalltowr
parish.

The Best Remedy for Group.

From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe.l
This is the season when the woman who
knows the best remedies for Group is in de-
mand in every neighborhood. One Of the
most terrible things in the world is to be
awakened in the middle Of the night by a
whoop from one of the children. The
Group remedies are almost as sure to be lost,
in case of Group, as revolver is sure 70 be
lost in case of burglars. There used to be
an old fashioned remedy for Group, known
as hive syrup and tolu, but some modern
mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is better, and does not cost so
much. II causes the patient to "throw up
the phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as
the croupy cough appears and il will pre-
vent the attack. IL never fails and is pleas
ant and safe to take. For sale by r. f.

Randolph Lost.

Lust
The r. II. 5. football team returned the
game at Bethel last Saturday. Both teams
played good hard game, making IL close
and interesting.
In the first half II looked as IL Randolph
was going to have the best OF il, when
Walbridge made fine run around left end
and scored a touchdown for Randolph;
then Capt. Goodhart kicked goal. After
the next kick off, the Bethels, after work
ing the ball little way, finally got man
around Randolph's left end and scored
touchdown but they failed to kick a goal,
making the score at the end of the first
half 8 to 5 in Randolph's favor.
In the last half Bethel saw that they
must play ball il they were to win,
and played better game than in the first
half. Both teams did good work and
Bethel succeeded in making a touchdown
in the same way as before, but failed to
kick goal, leaving the score 10 to in
Bethel's favor. The Randolphs then work
ed the ball down the field pretty well but
there wasn't time to make a touchdown.
There is to be a third game between the
teams which viii decide which team is the
victor. The Randolph backs did good
work but 1t was not as good as usual and
there was lack of interference, without
which the best runner can do nothing.
Goodhart's playing was fine, as usual,
while CURLY, Jerd and Morrill, held the
lines so wen than it made Bethel's famous
"guard back" formation useless. The
boys are not satisfied with their playing
and think they can do better when they
are not out so late the night before, but
Halloween doesn't come every day. How
ever, they have a chance to redeem them
selves, and we hope they will do it.

TAX RATE TOO LOW
COMPTROLLER ATCARDY'S FIGURES
SHOW COUNTY AUDITOR MADE
AN ERROR
SHORTAGE OF NEARLY $4,000
Current Taxes VIII Be Due TOmor-
row, and an Additional Five
Per Cent Penalty
Takes Effect.

According to figures given out by Comp
troller McCardy yesterday the failure of
County Auditor Johnson to fix a high
enough tax rate will leave the city $24,-
OLA short of what the tax budget for 1901
passed by the council a year ago called
for. The budget as passed by the coun-
Gil called for $1696, 259 to be raised by
taxes, but the levy as made by the county
auditor will only entitle the city to
$1,672, 245, which is $24014 less than what
was asked for. About three years ago
Comptroller McCardy, when he sent the
budget to the county auditor also sent a
rate of assessment to be levied in order
to get the required amount. The audi
tor, however, raised the point two years
ago that the comptroller had no right
to fix the rate of assessment, and has
since specified the rate without receiving
any suggestions from the city comp
troller. This year County Auditor john
son did not make the assessment high
enough for some reason, and as result
the city will be short the amount men,
toned
The tax boks will be turned over to
County Treasurer Metzdorf tomorrow by
the county auditor and the current taxes
will then be due and payable The first
installment' of real estate taxes must be
paid on or before May 81, and the per-
sonal taxes on or before Feb. %. An adj
ditonal penalty of per cent goes into
effect tomorrow on the 1900 taxes, MAX
ing them subject to a 10 per cent penalty
