''bum' through the mountains OF.
Coke, in the neighborhood of
Robert. Lee and Brohte, saw
many beautiful crops of corn,
cotton, sorghum, milo maize and
Kaffir corn; peas, too, seemed to
be doing nicely, but I hear that
the distressingly hot weather of
last week has damaged these beau
tiful crops past estimation. The
corn crop in this vicinity will be
almost, if not quite, a failure.
Many are going to cut it down
for feed and plant the ground in
sorghum. Grass, too, is needing
rain badly in some places. A few
we're blessed with fine rain on
the Sth, while many got none.

Audubon's Loss.

| Wednesday at high noon at the beauti-
full home of the brides parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. E. Bilharz, occurred the marriage
| of their only daughter, Miss Harriet to
Mr.. Luther Vollmar, of Des Moines.
Rev. P. j. vollmar officiating. The bride
was sttired in green silk with white lace
trimming and the groom in conventional
black. The house was beautifully ar
ranged and decorated with carnations
and roses.
Only relatives of the contracting
parties and few friends we're present
to witness the marriage vows. The
out of town guests were: E. G. Curtis,
Chicago; Mr.. and Mrs. Moran, Council
Bluffs; Mrs. Rogers, Oskaloosa; Mr..
Guest and Mr.. Horning, of Des Moines.
After the ceremony an elaborate din
ner of six courses was served.
The bride is ole of the best known
characters in Audubon and needs no
words OF ours to set forth her claims to
the love and honor of Audubon people.
Born and brought up here, she was ed
ucated at Evanston and upon her return
from college, accepted opposition in our
high school which she has filled most
successfully until last June, Her resig-
nation was matter of deep regret to
pupils and patrons. Mrs. Vollmar is an
active member of the Methodist church,
prominent in Sabbath school, Epworth
League and various orders of club work.
She has forwarded many good cause
and inaugurated many worthy enter
prises in Audubon. She possesses a
fine cultured mind and that rare and
beautiful thing-a practical christian
character and her, good influence will
linger happily about Audubon for many
years.
The groom is son of Rev. p. J. Voll.
mar, pastor OF the Methodist church of
Audubon and is prominent young bus
mess man Of Des Moines, manager OF the
Des Moines branch Of the Guest
Piano Co. He holds the respect
and confidence, not only Of his en-
ployers, but all those who hold business
relations with him. He is a man Of
marked business ability and is fast TAX.
ing rank among the leading business
men of the capital city. Possessed OF
many pleasing traits OF character,
cultured, refined. christian gentleman,
who know him we'll feel he is worthy the |
bride he has chosen.
The REPUBLICAN voices the general
regret at the loss to our city OF our
gifted young townslady but joins their
hosts Of friends in wishing for this happy
young couple the very choicest blessings
which life holds in store for those who
earn them.

The Office Of County Auditor is an
exacting one. 1t has to do with the
accounts of all the other offices and with
the different townships. He is practic-
ally the bookkeeper for the county.
He is also secretary to the Board OF
Supervisors. The place requires good
clerical ability and it requires integrity.
1t also needs man Of good iudgme Mt
and man OF affairs.
Four years ago, or the fall Of 1858,
Audubon county was very close politi-
cally. The office OF County Auditor had
been in the democratic party for several
years and the leaders Of that party were
intent on retaining it. The republicans
knowing this were uncertain as to who
they should nominate. No one whom
the party wanted seemed anxious to
make the race. Convention day came.
The delegates were in town and although
several names were suggested the dele
gates did not seem to be united on any
one for that place.
When the convention was called to
order A. F. Greenwsldt, a delegate from
Lincoln township, was made assistant
secretary Of the convention, There is
a tide in the affairs OF men which, IL

Dixon Was Here.

Last Friday at four o'clock the Audi.
bon and Coon Rapids foot ball team
met on the gridiron at the fair grounds.
The day was excellent for the the great
American game. On the toss up Coon
Rapids won and took the north goal.
Audubon kicked off to Dixon. The
game from this point was very fast. the
ball being in Audubon's territory nearly
all the time. Audubon was outclassed
entirely, as their men were much lighter
than those of their opponents, as Coon
Rapids had two men who weighed over
200 pounds and we might say that they
we're skilled players. There was not
much running done during the entire
game, when the ball was passed it was
just general line smashing and mix up.
Dixon and Towne did most of the play
ing for the visiting team. McGinnis,
McFarlane and Kline were Audubon's
best. McGinnis did most Of the tackl-
ing aud in a very clever manner.
The line up Of the two teams is as fol-
lows.

taken at the food, leads on to fortune"
That was Mr.. Greenwsldt's opportun-
ity. He was good secretary of the con
vention. He did his work well. His ap-
pearance was in his favor. Some friend
proposed him for auditor. The idea
spread and he was easily nominated
from field of candidates.
The nomination came as surprise to
him. He was then partner in the hard.
ware and implement firm of Greenwaldt
d Groteluschen and was postmaster at
Gray. He was doing well and was salts
fed with his business. 1t took some
persuading to cause him to accept the
nomination and enter the fight, and it
took courage for him to lead against the
strongest position the democrats held.
But he did it and after hard CAM
paign won by majority of 223, running
nearly up with the state ticket. His
fight was the hard one of the campaign.
In 1900 Mr.. Greenwaldt was unani-
mously renominsted and was reelected
by a majority of $50, leading the county
ticket and drumming ahead of the national
ticket. This fall he allowed his friends
to know that il it was satisfactory to the
party he would be pleased to have an
other nomination and no one opposed
him. He will no doubt be reelected by
an increased majority.
A. F. Greenwaldts parents were both
born in Germany. They were living in
the little town OF Guttenburg, Dubuque
county, 80 years ago when this son was
born. He attended common school there
and later attended business college at
Lincoln; Nebr., two years. He taught
school awhile in Nebraska, farmed in
Cherokee county, this state, and then
went into business at Gray. He seems
to have all the qualifications for the
Office Of auditor, natural aptitude for
it. He has integrity and good character
and he has an affability that makes him
friends. He is fine product Of the
American citizen coming from the Ger
man race and is credit and honor to
Audubon county.

Suddenly Called Home.

On last Sunday morning, September
% as the people we're assembling for
worship in their respective places, and
as Walter Greenlee with his family we're
preparing to meet with his family and
friends at the church at Gray the Master
suddenly called him home. He was
seized with a severe pain in his side, in
ternal hemorrage ensued and in very
few moments he died in the arms Of his
faithful wife and her brother. 1t was q
great shock to all his friends and neigh
bors. The funeral occurred Tuesday
at 2 o'clock. The remains were buried
in the Cameron Center cemetery. The
funeral was attended by the entire
neighborhood. Rev. Bennett OF the M.
E. church, oficiated, and preached a
very practical and touching sermon.
The pail bearers who did the last sad
office for their friend we're Messrs. Thos.
Scott; Samuel Randall, Walter Audas,
Will Freely, Will Lewis and Louis
Groteluschen. One Of the peculiar and
very touching features Of the sad event
was the taking of the remains Of the
son to the sick chamber Of the aged
aether that she might for the last time
look upon the face Of her dead son
whom she bore 46 years ago, sweet and
lovely babe then and q manly, dutiful
and loving son, all the days Of his forty
six years. .....
James Walter Greenlee was born in
Green county, Wis, October q, 1856,
therefore his age was 45 years, IL months
and 2 days. He died near Gray on Sept.
%, 1902. He removed with his parents
to Iowa in 1859. He has been engaged
in farming all his life but found time to
accumulate good store of knowledge on
all vital questions, in this age OF mental
developement and human progress. At
a very early age he took interest in the
subject of religion and his reverence for
things of higher order. influenced his
life from very early date, resulting in
his conversion to the religion Of Christ,
in the winter OF 1885, at which time he
united with the M. E. church and re-
NAMED an active christian during the
remainder of his life. Walter also was
great American patriot, the love of
country with him was akin to the love of
God. The writer recalls him in his
hurrahing for the immortal
Lincoln and that great mans life and
believings, gave the key note to the life
Of our friend whose remains now sleep
at Cameron Center.
Walter was married on March II,
1887. His wife and four children are left
to mourn for him, who no more will
come in aud go out among them. His
father is in his 77th year and his mother
in her 72nd year, and the blow falls
heavily on them at their advanced age.
Walter was, perhaps, their favorite son,
possessing the heart Of brave man, and |
