A REPUTATION.
How it Was Made and Retained
in 0skaloosa.

A good reputation is not easily
earned, and it was only by hard, con-
sistent work among our citizens that
Doan's Kidney Pills won their way to
the proud distinction attained in this
locality. The public endorsement of
scores of Oskaloosa residents has
rendered invaluable service to the
community. Read what this citizen
says:
Mr.. w T. Barnes of 207 West @
avenue, ianitor of the Central Meth
odist Episcopal church, says: For
many years at intervals had kidney
complaint. When the attacks were
most virulent l could scarcely oop
in the morning to put on my shoes.
l knew what caused the trouble, but
how to check or cure it was mystery.
/ finally procured Doan's Kidney Pills
at Blakeslee Brothers drug store.
The treatment went right to the
cause. Doan's Kidney Pills did the
work for which required them and
they have my endorsalion."

SCANDAL BREWING.
Irregularities Said 10 Exist In the
Treasury Department..

Washington, March "a. - Among
members of the House, Republicans
as well as Democrats, it is quite free
ly predicted that exposures are in
prospect which will shake the Treas
ury Department to it's very founda-
tions. The immigration Bureau is
not the only one involved but the
scadals limited at, are all said to exist
in the Bureaus of which the Assistant
Secretary is in charge. One official
who has charge of certain line of
contracting, at a yearly salary of
$4,000 is said to be building $50, 900
house. 1t is also stated that the COM
missioner of immigration, Powderly,
is aware of scandals at Ellis Island
and insisted upon the resignation
which took place. 1t is declared,
however, that Taylor suppressed
facts and prevented the removal OF
the guilty persons.

STUDENT VOLUNTEERS.
Missionary " DIRK as Being Done by
Penn College Pulls.

The Student Volunteer Band for
Foreign Missions, of Penn College
has had the pleasure of conducting
missionary meetings in most of the
churches of Oskaloosa during the
past few months. While these meet
ings may not have accomplished all
that was desired, we feel that they
have been great strength to US.
We are glad that we have had the
privilege OF meeting many of the
young Christian workers of the other
churches. AS we have met them in
these meetings we have felt the
greatest of Christian fellowship and
unity in. the cause of our Master. We
wish to extend to the young peoples
organizations which they represent
our thanks for the kindness with
which they have received us, and the
attentiveness withwhich they have
listened to US.
Since we visited the different chur-
ches, we have had the pleasure of at
tending the Student Volunteer Con-
vention for Foreign Missions which
was held at Toronto. Ont, from Feb.
26 to March 2 The Convention is
held every four years. This one was
perhaps the greatest gathering OF
studente that there has ever been 10
America. There were about 1900
delegates, 107 returned missionaries
representing almost every mission
field in the world, and many of the
ablest Christian workers of our day
were present. Each day there were
three sessions and from ten to if
teen minute addresses on various
phases of missionary work. The SUBJ
ject matter of these addresses was of
vital interest to every living church.
Within the next few weeks we shall
be glad to give full report of the
convention in every church in town,
II it be desired. Therefore, if any of
them desiring to hear report of this
convention will make their request
known to Milo E. Reece, 433 N. Mar
ket St., arrangements will be made
for one or more of the delegates to
address them.

SCHOOL EXERCISES.
The Primary Department of Finh
Ward Present Play

The children in the primary de-
partment OF Fifth ward gave a very
interesting play last Friday in cele-
bration of Patrons Day. They have
been practiciug for some time under
the direction of their teacher Miss
Carrie Van Glider and Fridays
program showed that the time had
not been wasted.
The play was taken from "Mother
Goose" the title being "The Old
Bachelor Who Lived by Himself.n
The first scene represented the bach
elor in bis apartments eating bread
and cheese. He finally goes to Lon
don in search of wife and the next
scene represents the anxious mother
presenting her five daughters for his
inspection. As in the story. the first
was rejected as being red headed, the
second was too fat, the third too tall,
etc, but the fifth exactly suited and
arrangements were made for an i'm
mediate marriage. The third scene
showed the wedding ceremony. The
groom was attired in full dress suit
with swallow tailed coat, low cut vest
and all. The bride wore a white
dress and veil and carried flowers
and fan. The ceremony was duly
performed in the presence OF the
weeping mother and sisters. Many
handsome presents were received.
After coDgratulations were over the
groom appeared with wheel barrow
and proceeded with the remainder of
the play by carting his wife home.
When their destination was in sight
the wheel barrow upset, splitting it's
precious contents and the play ended
with general rush to pick up the
bride and her belongings.
The cast of characters was as fol-
lows:
The bachelor. 80. .Dwaine Fehlinger
The mother Mabel Doll
First daughter .Cordelia Myers
Second daughter $3.50. Susie Edwards
Third daughter. -. Helen Merriman
Fourth daughter Helen Rosenburger
The bride. .Okley Downs

The whole play was in pantomine
and was given to mandolin music
furnished by two students from Miss
Cricket's room. There was a large
crowd of visitors present and every
one declared the play to be among
the best of the kind ever seen in the
city. After the play was completed
in Miss Van elders room, demand
was made from other rooms and an.
encore performance was given.

LIBRARY BUILDING
Greater Oskaloosa Kindly Re-
membered by Carnegie.

The biggest plum that has fallen in
to Greater Oskaloosa's basket since
your Uncle Sam" shook down the
s65, 700 post Office building, came down
this Saturday morning inthe shape
of an offer from Hon Andrew Car
negie, to build 500 900 public library
building in Oskaloosa, providing the
city furnish site and make provision
for its maintenance.
Some time ago the Board of Trade
Committee on City Affairs, consisting
OF Sam Baldauf, n j.. Bentley and
others, took up the question of IL
brary building for Uskaloosa, and
later on the Public Library Board,
through the efforts of Congressman
Lacey got in communication with Mr.
Carnegie. After considerable cores
pondence the following letter, con-
tanning the offer, came to. day:
New York, March IA, 1902.
Jno. A. Kaibach Esq, Oskaloosa,
Iowa.
Dear Sir: Responding to your
communications, IF the city of Os-
kaloosa pledge itself by resolution of
council TO support tree Public
Library at cost of not less than two
thousand $4,000 dollars year, and
provides a suitable site, Mr.. Carnegie
will be glad to furnish twenty thous
and 1920, 000) for the erection of a
Free Public Library building.
Very Respectfully Yours,
JAS BURTRAM,
Private Secretary.
The conditions mentioned in the
above letter have already practically
been met as the city voted several
years ago to maintain the library by
a light tax. The only thing remain
ing to be done is the securing of a
site, and judging by the way Oska-
loosa people have responded to such
things in the past, this provision will
be met without delay. The money
will be available as soon as the sight
is secured, and it is possible the
building will go up this summer. AS
has been said before nothing sue
ceeds like success, and Oskaloosa
seems to have found the charmed
wand this year.
According to dispatch sent out
from New York today Mr.. Carnegie's
endowments to libraries already
amount to 100000 The list COM
prises forty two cities spread all over
the country.
Iowa is plainly the most fortunate
of the states, no less than seven of
her cities getting gifts ranging from
SIC, 900 to S25, 900. Iowa City heads
the list with this top figure. Oska-
loosa comes next with $40, 900, Cedar
Falls following with $4,000, then
comes Atlantic with Sl2, 800; Denison,
Hampton and Maquoketa falling in
with sic, 600 each. Ia all, the gifts
mount up III Iowa alone over the
hundred thousand dollar mark.
The city holding the largest single
gift in the whole list is Denver, Colo.
This city received the very neat pre-
sent of 5000, 900. Many of the cities
have been notified by Mr.. Carnegie
of his decisions, while a few, how
ever, have not received this notitica-
ton as yet, but will at once, it is
stated. 1t is pointed out as singu
lar fact that the majority of the gifts
have been in the middle west, north
and south. Nothing for the east but
two small sums in New York
state,
Nevada, Wisconsin, Ohio, Nebras-
ka and New Mexico follow respect
lively the states of Iowa and Colora-
do.

ARTS AND CRAFT.
New Department of Woman's Club
Makes Fine Exhibition.

The Oskaloosa Woman's Club gave
an art and hand work exhibit Satur-
day afternoon in the parlors of the
Presbyterian church that was very
largely attended. The exhibit was
under the direction of new depart
ment of the club, "Arts and Graft,
that has been fostered by the direc
ton of Mrs. Frank Lofiand, who is at
it's head. One of the objects of the
department is to encourage hand
work along the lines exploited by
Ebert Hubbard-the making of sub
stantial things for home decoration
and ornamentation.
Among the things shown at the ex-
hibit of Saturday were hand painted
china specimens by Miss Gertrude
and Mrs. John Spencer. Misses
Maude Rose and Ida Glover had
quite display of pyeo etching that
attracted considerable attention. A
collection of pottery was shown by
Mrs. w. l. Pearson and number of
others. Mrs. w. III. Heating was the
exhibitor of an interesting collection
of articles from the Philippines.
Miss Gertrude Spencer had charge
of large and elegant collection of
Ebert Hu5bard's Roy Croft books
and here also was seen an illuminat-
ed prayer book of I'VE olden times !"
This book was the property of Mrs
Wollcott This lady also has cou-
pie of volumes of hakespeare that
were certainly works of art in the
printing and engraving.
Then needle work had place in
the show and it ranged from the elk
embroidery made by the ladies of
today to tho old sampler" made by
the ladies in the days of colonial
fame and from a Mexican feather
picture to blanket of South Amer
lean native. Quite large collection
of Mexican and Indian pottery was
also seen.
One of the departments that at
tracted much attention was the clay
modelling exhibit of Chas. and John
Farr. These young men have been
in the business of clay working for
the past couple of years and have
made wonderful progress in the art.
They showed carvings and modelings
that were burnt in their own ovens.
They had pitchers and tea sets and
various articles and all the products
of Mahaska county clays. A new
pattern of floor tile has also been
worked out by the han DIS of these
young men and was here seen. Or
ders by the wholesale were showered
upon these young men for their
goods. They have started an indus
try in the city of Oskaloosa that will
be heard from in a substantial way at
no distant date. John Farr also
showed some hand made furniture
that was generally admired and a
piece of wood carving by L. R. Rose
brook also caused considerable COM
ment.
The exhibit was one of the most
thoroughly entertaining sessions of
the open sort that the o. W. O. has
yet given, and an exhibit of the same
sort on larger scale is now being
talked about.
