Obituary.,

Mrs. Catherine Seward died at Dun
dee, Iowa, May 2, 1902, aged seventy-six
years, one month, and twenty six days.
Catherine Porter was born in Northsmp-
tonshire, England, March 6, 1926, and
came to America in 1855 She was mar
ried to James Seward In Buffalo, N. Y,
March %, 1856, and the same year came
with her husband to Richland township
Delaware county, Iowa, and had re-
NAMED resident of Delaware county
until the spirit took its departure to the
spirit world TO them were born four
children, two of which have preceded
her to the heavenly home. She leaves
to mourn her loss, her husband, two
sons and other relatives, besides many
neighbors and friends. "Grandma," as
many called her, suffered much during
the last few months of her sojourn on
earth, but passed away in the triumph
of faith, as she had been q faithful
Christian for many years. She was q
kind and loving mother, faithful wife,
and good neighbor, and will be great
ly missed by the church and commun-
ity; but our loss is her eternal gain.
Funeral services were conducted in the
Dundee Wesleyan Methodist church by
the writer. The funeral was largely at
tended and was directed in commend
able way by Mr.. Emil Fuehr, of Dun
dee. The mortal body was borne to the
Pleasant Valley cemetery in Mr.. Fuehr's
magnificent new hesrse. The grief
stricken family have the tenderest SYM
pathy of the entire community. We
commend them to the God of all grace.
Down from the realms of eternal day,
Came blessed angels bright,
And bore loving mother away,
To that beautiful home of light.
I'm the autumn of life she is called from us,
ia Fer LEI !. me frosts have gathered their store.
On that beautiful radiant shore.
Yes. though ills hard for friends to part,
And bitter tears may fall,
This thought consoles the sorcowing heart,
There is room In heaven for all.
Though mother was spared till the evening
of life,
Even then She was called full soon
To fold her hands 10 the sleep of death
In the quiet and silent tomb.
For more than three score years and ten
We cherished this loved one we'll,
And this blest thought our minds adorn:
| "God dOeth all things weil.
| .Then let us not weep for her who is now
From pain and sorrow Free
The Master has taken her home to himself
| 10 dwell through eternity"

The Crop Bulletin for week ending
May %, says: The week was warm
and showery. The average daily ex-
cess of temperature was from eight to
ten degrees. Fully three-fourths Of the
state receiveds very large excess Of
rainfall, the smallest amounts being re-
ported from stations In the northwest
ern counties. In numerous localities,
showers fell every working day of the
week. The heaviest downpours occur
ed in the northeast district, causing ex-
tensive damage to bridges, and to crops
on slopes and low lands. The belt Of
heavy showers extended diagonally
across the state from Page to Winnie
shiek counties. Clarinds reported 4.12
inches; Marshalltown, 4.75; Dubuque
5.17; Elkador, $40; Ridgewsy, Winnie
shiek county, 4.78; Waverly, 2.97; Tip
ton, $50; Waterloo, 1893; Alton, 1872
Work in cornfields has been retarded
In the northeast district there is con
siderable area still implanted, and mucl
replanting is necessitated, or an aban
donment of early planted acreage. II
the larger part of the state the rainfall
though copious, was not damaging, an,
the crop conditions are very good
Grass and small grain have made rapi,
growth. The only fears expressed ar
that the grain crops may become to
rank for best results. The work 0
cultivsting corn will be resumed, wit
the crop generally In fair condition.

The Bulletins Troubles.

The troubles of the Bulletin company
in trying to make strap and buckle
meet will lead, it is said, to the siIspen-
sion tomorrow of the Sunday issue. The
paper has been a loss from the start
owing, not so much to an increased
outlay. as to the failure OF the public
to patronize it. By this change Mr.
auckland, it is said. will retire from
the Bulletin employ. As to the future
of the Daily Bulletin, the policy which
opposes the interests of the business
community has made even that prob
lematical, and the coming Of the cable
and the prospective loss of the special
patronage il has had from Judge Hum
phreys in apparent exchange for polit-
zeal support adds to the Bulletins EN-
barrassments. The attempt to finan-
cier the paper through the rough seas
ahead has been left to Mr.. Harrington,
MI Cross of the Wireless, Mr.. A. V.
Gear of the firm of Gear and Lansing,
Mr. L. de L. Ward and Mr.. Lovette

Effects Of Beaumont Gas.


A New Orleans paper. In de
scribing the effects of Beaumont
gas upon human beings has tho
following:
But still more dangerous Is the
effect of the gas on human health
Ia Beaumont to be "gassed" Is to
be So overcome by the sulphur
fumes as to be unconscious for
hours There are no records of
t1ose who have been "gassed," but
the total runs far up In the hun
dreds.
The newspapers tell now ard
then of a man falling from a der
rick and breaking his neck-sim
ply case of being gassed. So bad
did this casing" become lately.
that the district judge called the
attention of the safety committee
ID it
There Is still another evil from
the gas, the full extent of which Is
not YET realized. The stranger
who visits Beaumont is at once I'm
pressed with the fact that every
tradesman there, whether b. sells
candles or root beer, has spectacles,
eye glasses aud even gogglesdn his
show window.
He IS also impressed by the pop
ular greeting, for, instead of saying,
Good morning: how are you this
NOR lipg? friend Is always well
coined with Coed morning; how
are your eyes?" The stranger soon
discovers that every Que who works
in the oil district has sore eyes.
The gas effects the optic nerves In
some manner.
There are always large number
of men laid up from this cause.
A correspondent of The Review
says that, from his own personal
experience. he knows that the
above Is correct. He has himse If
been "gassed" not only at hote's In
Beaumont, but at divers other
places In Texas-to wit: Nacog-

he held very soon under call of the
president a mass meeting at which
time the objects of the party should be
ser forth fully The meeting finally ad-
ioI1rned that the committees might
have time to work for the mails this
morning.
1t became noised about during the
evening, after the return OF Prince Gu
mid from the wharf, that there had been
a display of the feeling which has
sprung up between him and wilcox, at
the wharf. The two with their wives
met and saluted coldly. Later wilcox
spoke to Cupid, but the latter turned
his back deliberately and did not hear
the remark addressed to him.
Prince Cupid said after the meeting
that he had taken the presidency and
would lead the new party, feeling that
II was his duty. His friends followed
him out of the Home, Rule convention.
and he would not fail them now that
they thought the time ripe for non
partisan action. He said the education
of the Hawaiian was the only hope for
advancement, but under wilcox and
Kalauokalani there would never be any
attempt toward uplifting, only the same
appeals to prejudice.

WILL
ATTACK THE TRUSTS

OYSTER BAY. July Sit has been
ascertained that the Presidents speech
yesterday in reference to the trusts
was merely a forerunner of determined
efforts by him to have Congress
take up that subject and enact definite
legislation at its next session for the
control or supervision OF the trusts.
Recently the President and Attor-
ney General Knox had a conference
with Congressman Littlefield of Maine,
at which Littlefeld was invited to pre-
pare a bill for the regulation and con-
troll of the trusts that will go before
Congress with the endorsement and in
fuence of the President back of 1t.
The bill will be submitted at the begin
ming of the next session, but before
this is done the President, Attorney
General Knox and Littlefield will have
frequent conferences as to the details.
In addition to this prepared action.
the President is going to talk upon the
trusts question a good deal on the
several trips to be made by him in the
fall.
He has announced to his friends that
the question is a vital one and that he
proposes to push it vigorously until
some action is taken by Congress.
