Called Home.

Miss Mary Farquhar died at her
fathers home in Prospect Park last
Thursday evening, and was buried
Friday in Maple Grove cemetery, the
services being conducted from the
house by Rev. Littleton of the
Christian church. The deceased was
born at West Liberty, Feb'y. 10, 1877,
but her parents came to this county
when she was small girl.
Almost twelve years ago she was
afflicted with tuberculosis and has
been patient, silent sufferer ever
since. In early life she accepted
Christ as her savior, and has in her
sweet and humble way emulated his
life as revealed to her by love and
patience, kindness and forbearance.

shines bright and steady to ali who

brothers and sisters adored her be.
cause she suffered so patiently and un-
complainingly and her friends be-
cause of kindly deeds done at a
sacrifice.
She was conscious up to the last
twenty-four hours, yet knew no fear
and swept peacefully and heroically to
the home she loved, leaving sore
hearts here to mourn her loss. Her
mother and one sister have gone before
her and all wait with hopeful out
hands to welcome those left
to travel here their course in life.

The First Lecture.

Last Thursday night DIR. Fox of
Chicago, opened the lecture course
with one of the most brilliant and
entertaining lectures ever given to an
audience in Audubon. The course is
under the directions of the Columbian
Club and DIR. Fox was introduced by
the able president of that Club, Mrs.
B. S. Phelps.
DIR. Fox opened his lecture by speak
ing of his appreciation in being called
to again address an Audubon audience.
and then congratulated the Club on
getting Katherine Conway and her
excellent singers for the next number
on the course as she gives rare enter
tainments and is nearly always called
back the second and even the third
season.
He then took up his theme and in
fancy carried his vast audience back
into the sixteenth century and intro.
duced in rapid succession a line of
heroes who snatched the vail of
superstition from the eyes of the world
and gave us the nucleus of learning
discoveries and sciences that helps to
make us great. He finally settled on
Sir Walter Raleigh as the dominant
ioCCoA III oPCuluS CllC uISI CIldpCeTS Ol
the new book of Anglo Saxon
supremacy. He termed Sir Walter as
endowed with resourcetul intellect
that swept the entire field of human
knowledge and intellectual acumen.
The courtier, philosopher, historian,
author, adventurer, discoverer, coloni-
ger, soldier, sailor, statesman,
diplomat. The speaker threw Raleigh
into the breach of human intellectual
and moral poverty and bridged the
road to their supremacy ofhigh ideals.
He snatched the scepter from the
Latin and forever gave it to the Saxon.
To Raleigh or the teut0nic Saxon,
stimulated by Raleigb's efforts was
given the credit of the first link in the
chain that drug from out the wilder
ness and plants of America the
United States the recognized sponsor
in the world powers of right and
liberty. To the Saxon is given the
supremacy in every known field of
labor. To him came the opportunity
to rock the cradle in which slumbered
the child of liberty until it's lusty
shouts make the Latin speaking races
tremble. The orator told of ali that
had been done by the Saxon and closed
with a wonderful and at the same
time beautiful climax in the closing
hours of Raleigh. No one can
describe the lecture so it can be
properly appreciated. 1t must be
heard. The next number is musicale
and no one can afford to miss it.

INSURGENTS FALL BACK.
Details Of tho Battle at La Victoria
Venezuela.

Willemstad, Oct. 20.-One of the
leaders Of the Mates revolution in
Venezuela. who is at present in Cur
acoa, has furnished the following de-
tails and explanation of the retreat
Of the revolutionary army from La
Victoria. He says the rebels only
abandoned the fight after being con-
vinced that La Victoria was impreg.
nable and after President Castro had
revolutionists outside of La Victoria.
When the rebel reinforcements al
rived at La Victoria last Thursday
President Castro and his forces were
located at point on the German rail-
road. The rebels made detour of
the city and cut off the only road of
retreat open to the government forces.
They were then short of ammunition
and had it not been for the arrival
of train bringing them half a million
cartridges, it is believed that Castros
forces would have been annihilated.
The revolutionists stationed near Ca
racas, some 1000 men. under
command Of General Ramos, are alone
responsible for the retreat OF General
Mendoza. They permitted the train
carrying ammunition to the govern
ment to leave Caracas and reach La
Victoria.
An added proof that the govern
ment suffered terribly in tho La Vic
toria fight from the repeated attacks
Of the rebels IL found from the fact
that President Castro does not pur-
sue General Mendoza. The latter's
plan In withdrawing from La Victoria
is to oblige President Castro to aban-
don the positions he holds there.
The rebels suffered heavy losses but
the government did also. President
Castro's forces are reduced to 3,1OO
men, while General Matos still has
5000 men in the field. 1t was not a
rout, but methodical retreat.
In conclusion. the rebel officer said
that the revolutionists within few
days would be found near Caracas.
