Dks A1oKNEes Iowa, June 8.
The average temperature of the
past seven days was from two TO four
degrees below normal, with light
rainfall except in scattered localities.
The week closed with higher temper.
atnre and sh0wery weather. The
conditions were generally favorable
for farm work. and the dry weather
afforded opportunity to cultivate the
corn fields, which were becoming
very weedy in All sections where
rainfall had been excessive. The
northwestern counties need copious
rains, but the bulk Of the state would
be benefited by week or two Of
warm, dry weather, to facilitate the
cultivation Of corn and prevent dam
age to small grain by growing too
rank. The corn acreage is practi-
caliy al planted, and generally a
good stand has been secured, with
fair prospects, If conditions are fav-
orable for timely and thorough cult
walton. Pastures, meadows, potatoes
and garden vegetables are making
fne growth. There are variable re.
ports as to apples. plums and cher
ries, but the average is below nor

CLASS REUNION.
Members OF o. H. s. sol, Gather and
Enjoy Evening

The first reunion OF Glass 1901 of
o. Il. 8. was held at the home OF
Herbert Davis on Fourth avenue
east yesterday evening, and was in
every respect an old time blowout. -
The house was decorated with rose
and blue, the coIors Of the class,
while the class emblem, hoe, signi-
tying Hoe your own row. was
everywhere in evidence. Quite a
large number Of the old naughty
ones and the faculty Of the High
school were present, although many
found it impossible to attend.
The evenings entertainment was
opened with CLASP history by Ar
thur Hugg, which brought back many
Of the long forgotten deeds of valor
and class Publications. After this
Elizabeth Burnside, the fotmer presi-
dent Of the class, called short BUSH
ness meeting at which it was decided
to hold the reunions semi. annually.
One on or as near the date of gradu-
alton June 81 as possible, and the
other as nearly half yearly as pos
sible. The class voted to put the
next two reunions into the hands of
committee of three, giving them
full power to act. The committee
appointed is Lawrence DIR, Madge
Pettitt and Belle Davis, and they are
to appoint subcommittee on recep-
ton and entertainment as they see
fit. A committee composed of Her
bert Davis, Elizabeth Burnside and
Lawrence DIR was also chosen to
keep a permanent record of all mem
bers Of the class, and of such pro-
ceedings as may be voted to put on
record. 1t was also decided that the
first one entering the field of matri-
mony after this reunion must enter
tain the class. On motion of Miss
Evans vote of thanks was rendered
to Herbert Davis for his kindness in
entertaining the class at its first re-
union. Letters were read from vari-
GUS members who were unable to at
tend and something was learned of
the teachers who have left their ac-
customed haunts in the High school
building. Miss Sheppard is now
Mrs. Hotchkiss of Chicago, Mr..
Hunt is superintendent OF the Eldora
schools, and Mrs. Carver is travelling
in the south and west. 1t was agreed
to send souvenir and copy of the
proceedings of the meeting to each
one of the absent members.
After the business part of the pro-
gnam ice cream and cake were serv-
ed and general good time enjoyed.
A small wooden hoe tied with rose
and blue ribbon was presented to
each guest as a souvenir of the oc-
casion and the evening will be re-
membered asamong the last but by
no means the least of the pleasures
found in connection with the o. H. 8.

INJUNcTIoNs.
Action Of United Wine workers OF
Beacon Camp.

Beacon, Iowa, May II, '02.
Editors Herald We, the under
signed, beg to submit the following
resolutions, which were adopted by
Local Union No. 17s Beacon, Iowa:
WHEREAS, that when an Injunction
is issued, it says to the people it lie
intended to restrain, that they must
not do certain things; and it is often
the case that the persons eujoined
have legal and moral right TO do
the things they are restrained from
doing, and have no means of redress
for any wrongs that may be done
them, when it is alleged that an in
junction has been violated and the
parties enjoined are accused of be-
ing in contempt, no amount OF So
phistry can hide the fact the Judge ia
the aggrieved party. He invariably
sits In judgment in the case
WHEREAS, we deny the right of any
Judge to formulate any law for our
guidance or government, or to fine
and imprison US for any cause with
out trial by jury.
For these and many other reasons
therefore, be it
ResOtced, That we demand that the
Federal Congress and the various
State Legislatures, shall enact laws
limiting the authority of State and
Federal Judges to issue iniunctions
so that the right of wage workers and
other citizens may be properly pro-
tected. and De it further
Resotced, That such laws provide
that no man shall be convicted of
contempt for the violation of an in
junction where it can be shown that
aside from the order of the court be
had legal right TO perform the acts
for which he is held in contempt.

AUTO BUSES.
A Possible Solution of Electric Line
ion OskalOOsa

w. A. McNeill, or Little Mac" in
an informal way has made proposi-
ton to establish a system of auto
buses in Oskaloosa, providing he
can get fair franchise. If Mr.. Me-
Neill attempts a system of this kind
it will be up-to. date, as his past en-
terprise guarantees. e..
Auto-busses run on schedule
time card would be a fine solution OF
the electric line proposition for Os-
kaloosa, and would put the city a
little ahead of any town in the west.
1t would do away with unsightly
poles and wires and best of all the
lines of track that are a menace to
driving. 1t is understood the propo-
sition will be made to the city in the
near future ard should have a re-
spectIul hearing.

o. HIS. CLASS OF 1902
Commencement Week Started
With Excellent Sermon.

The program for commencement
week OF the oskaloosa High school
was inaugurated Sunday evening with
the bacculaureate address delivered
to the class by Rev. A. M. Duboc, OF
the Baptist church of this city.
The service was announced as a
union service in all the churches OF
the city at the morning meeting and
hence all the ministers and large
representation oftheir congregations
met at the Central M. E. church to-
gether with hosts of the school pa
irons, parents and friends of the
young people Of the class of 1909.
Rev. Somerville of the church pre-
sided during the meeting,
The sermon by Mr.. Duboc was from
the last half of the sth verse, chap
ter 1, of Joshua. "For then thou
shalt make thy way prosperous and
then thou shalt have good success
The sermon was careful analysis
OF the succsss to be desired by the
class of young people about to start
in life. The term success was defined
not so much as the measurement of
the dollars and cents scale as it was
the cultivation of character to the
fullest extent possible and the en-
ployment of the powers attained in
the service of mankind. Success in
the world seems to mean to day how
much can we make and lofty ideas
are forgotten.
The divine commandments seem to
have been altered and the admoni-
ton that replace them for the use of
our young people are: /. Make
money. 2. Marry rich. Worth of
character is sacrificed to fame, place,
and social position, Many guided
successes iIlumiDed by the inner lights
often show miserable failures, and
the most humble unheard of life may
be the fullest in the measure of true
success. It's not so much the place
you occupy, as how did you get there
and what did you do after you were
there. Neither is culture for selfish
purposes to be desired. The life of
culture and refinement may be an
empty failure. Nero was an educated
and refined man, that is an artist,
musician and port of rank, and
yet his name goes down az synonym
of all that is vile.
The commercialism of the age is to
be deplored. Through such means
will the down fall of the nation be
accomplished. tits not successful to
have full purse and an empty soul,
but the commands of the day are:
Get money, get place honestly and by
honorable effort if possible but above
all things get money.
The experience of life is in your
hands. 1t can be tried but once, 1t
is for you to make or mar your life
and the experiment can be tried but
once. 1t is for you to say whether
you will be successful or otherwise.

An Annoying Advertlsement.

An Oskaloosa merchant turned
bedlam of nuisance and noise loose
on the streets Saturday evening by
distributing among small America
of the city lot of toys known as
Bracket wheels" So great was the
din created by the rackets that the
band was compelled to suspend oper-
ations, and even when it could COM
mence only marches could be played.
The noise was annoying alike to the
public in general and the band in
particular.

BARREL EXPLODED.
small BOYS Haye Narrow Escape
Rrana DeaIh

Brighton Enterprise: Tuesday af-
ternoon about three O'Clock citizens
Of Brighton were startled by the
noise OF an explosion. The sound
came from the vicinity of the gas
plant and everybody ran to see what
was the matter They found out.
The gas plant managers had just
emptied three barrels OF gasoline
into the cistern and rolled the empty
barrels out on the lot. : School is out
and the kids must find something to
do. They saw these empty barrels
and It was not long until one of them
dropped . lighted match into the
bunghole. The heat from the sun
had converted what gasoline there
was in the barrel into gas and of
course the explosion followed. The
odore Prizer was struck by flying
splinters but not seriously hurt and
the rest of the boys escaped entirely.
= piece of the barrel head struck
Mrs. Bucks house some distance
away and split the Misunderstanding.

STRIKE BENEFITS RIO GRANDE.
Union Pacific Kas Not Been Handling
PeriShable FREIGHT

Some idea of the uncertainty that
has been occasioned as result of the
trouble on the Union Pacific is shown
in the enormous amount of perisllable
freight which has been sent east over
the Rio Grande system. No perishable
freight from the vest has gone over
the Union Pacific since the strike.
Naturally the Southern Pacific would
turn all of this business over the
Union Pacific line. which is a part of
the Hartman system, but a share of il
has been turned over to the Santa Fe
and the bulk of it has gone over the
Rio Grande from Ogden, which has en-
aoled the Southern Pacific TO get its
percentage as usual Some of the per-
ishable freight gathered by the Short
Line from its northern branches has
gone the same way, and the result is
that the Rio Grande has Jared well
from this class of traffic.
