Congressman Smiths Father Dead.

Geo. L. Smith, of Council Bluffs,
father of Congressman Walter l. Smith,
died at his home Friday morning of
last week. For long time he had
taken his meals with the family of his
son Walter L., and had kept rooms at
the Ogden House. He was found dead
in his room Friday morning. The
physicians say that the process of thick
ening and hardening arteries was the
cause of death. He had been in poor
health for same time. The Nonpariel
says of him;
George f. Smith was one of the pio-
neers of Pottawattamie county, coming
here about forty-three years ago from
Philadelphia, where he was born. He
first settled at Crescent City, which
was then a strong rival of Council
Bluffs, but after short time hel be-
came resident here. During the
active years of his life, Mr.. Smith was
one of the leading contractors and
builders of the city. He was also one
of the early members of the First
Presbyterian church of Council Bluffs.
Mr.. Smith was "a years old the Goth
of last December. His wife died and
was buried in the family vanlt here
about twelve years ago. To them three
children were born, Congressman Wal.
ter 1. Smith and Forest Smith of this
city, and Mrs. Igletta F. Ware, now Of
| Omaha.

Masonic Banquet.

At their hall last Friday evening the
Masons held their annual banquet, and
as is usually the case when this order en-
tertains, it was quite a triumph OF good
entertainment and pleasant sociability.
About two hundred were present when
ID. l.. Freeman in his happy manner
called the house to order and asked all
to join in singing Nearer My God To
Thee Mr.. Vollmar led in prayer, after
which ladies' quartette composed Of
Mrs. Edward Bilharz, Miss Maud Doak,
Mrs. Ed Freeman and Mrs. W. w.
Smith with Mrs. Donaldson at the piano
gave the first OF several excellent mus
ical numbers which they had prepared
for the occasion. John Ward then re-
sponded to the toast, 1.-THE Masonic
Goat" treating it as symbol and
tracing the spirit Of Missionary by ITS
signs and symbols, back to the primitive
ages after which Miss Harriet Bilharz
| responded to the toast, "The Represen.
tative Mason leading the old subject
| along new lines of thought and interest
and finally placing her representative
Mason upon the same high pedestal upon
which stands representative manhood
the world over-the pedestal Of true
uOUlllty duu IuTlbLidu DIOtuCIuOOus IL
many the great treat of the evening was
the flute solo rendered by Mr.. Adams,
Mrs. Wilde accompanying HIM on the
piano. Yielding to the continued encore
he gave another selection, also beauti-
full. The ladies' quartette declined to
recognize the pronounced encore accord
ed them, and Mr.. Myers entering with
| an elegant tea service and calling upon
Mayor Hanna to arise and stand, pro-
ceeded in touching and appropriate
speech to present the same, in tok en- OF
the good wishes OF the lodge which go
with him and his family to their new
home. Mr.. Hanna was wholly surprised
and overcome and many eyes grew dim
with sympathetic tears. Charles Tai
bolt served the banquet and it was
| fine. The way the Masonic brethren
| few about i'll ministering to their guests
| would give the impression to any one
| not acquainted with their adaptability
that each had served apprenticeship in
restaurant. The general sociability
was one of the marked features of the
occasion. Every one seemed to have
the very best time possible. This s one
of the annual Banquets' we would wish
| might come again soon.

Obituary.

Willie III. Schrader was born on a
farm in Iowa county, Iowa, March 10,
1880. Died at the home OF his parents
in Cameron township, Audubon county,
January 10, 1902, age q years and 10
months. He remained in his native
county for about four years when he re-
| moved with his parents to farm near
Deep River. Powshiek county, where
seven years were spent. From there
the family removed to Audubon county
in the spring of 1892 settling on farm
in east Cameron at which place the
death occurred. just five weeks before
his death, or December II, 1901, he was
united in marriage with Miss Mabel
johnson. After marriage they went to
the home Of his parents to reside
| temporarily tall their house should be
vacated in February. On the night of
December 18th he was taken i'll with
appendicitis which later developed into
| tuberculosis. After four weeks Of ter.
| rible suffering he passed away at the
noon hour OF January 18th.
Willie was young man Of good habits
and had friends everywhere he was
known. He was an active worker in the
Sunday school having been either a
teacher, librarian, or secretary OF the
Sunday school for many years past
At the time of his taking sick he was
primary teacher at Eden Valley-a
position to which he has been chosen a
number Of different times. He was also
| a good church worker having united
| with the United Brethren church about
five years ago and has been a consistent
christian ever since. The writer while
standing at his bedside heard his last
words uttered in a pitiful call for
mother. A few moments later death put
an end to suffering and the soul took its
flight. Thus in the bloom OF youth
young bride is called upon to mourn the
loss OF husband, family to mourn for
son and brother, and the community
to mourn the loss of one OF its worthy
young men. The place he has filled for
several years past in the church and in
society is vacant but his memory will
always linger among the relatives and
friends he loved so we'll. Funeral ser
vices we're held from the Eden Valley
church under the charge Of Rev. Bertch.
After beautiful sermon from the text,
There is but step between me and
DEATH" the remains we're viewed by
very large concourse of people and then
conveyed to the final resting place in
Cameron Center cemetery.
Knowing my Savior can give me his rest
Now am coming home;
Longing to anchor my soul on his breast,
Now ! am coming home.
