DR.: Nicholas hurry Butler, presi-
dent of Columbia university, declar-
ed last night before 5000 people at
the big exposition building, that the
lack of the English Bible in the
courses of American schools is one
OF the gravest problems which con

fundamental religious elements that
have shaped our entire Western
civilization. OF the action can only
say, with much emphasis, that it was
a shameful thing -"
! DR.. Butler was speaking Of press
ing problems in American ,educa-
ton. He argued strongly that the
Bible should have q place among
school text books, solely because OF
it's singular position in literature,
and because without knowledge of
it, the best of secular literature is
half meaningless. q
'The lack of the Bible, if not
remedied," he continued, twill
surely lead to distressing conse-
auences. To eliminate it from our
school courses it to strike out the
element of knowledge which re-
veales the inner beauties of all the

agency of religious training or
dissemination of theology, but purely
and solely as the greatest of the
great masterpieces of literature; the
foundation spring from which the
authors of the hest in our English

tion." r
DR.. Buffers assertions were
loudly cheered, Referring then to

A VERY SAD DEATH.

Had a stranger visited our I'M
usually cheerful village at six
O'Clock last Tuesday morning he
would have been struck with the
strange and all-absorbing sorrow
which not only :''seemed" but did
pervade every breast and reflect it.
self upon every countenance. The
business man, the mothers and
fathers whose locks are gray and
faces wrinkled with age-the little
boy and the little girl with the rudy
face of youth, yes. the entire
community, was overwhelmed with
sadness when the words: Iva
Kelly is dead'' reached their .ears.
There was food of tears in every
hume in Hartley, all of whom knew
her only to love. Our community
has lost friends but this was the
saddest, not alone on account OF
her sudden and terrible taking
away, but Iva, the sweet girl that
she was, was looked upon by the
people of Hartley as almost a
member of each family-she was
more than loved, almost worshipped
by her associates. It was enough to
cause the hardest heart to melt as
Iva lay in the cold embrace of death,
to witness the tears falling from the
eyes of her young friends, with an
expression upon each youthful
countenance which seemed to say
we have lost friend, one whom we
SO much loved, while from the aged
ones a seeming expression depicted
upon the countennce of each, "a
flower, precious one. has gone.
At ten O'Clock last Sunday night
the fire bell rang unwelcome It'd
dings ''fire.'' The fire was located
in the home of E. Kelley, one Of
the choice residence in the city-at
as late an hour as it was the fire
boys were on the ground within
ten minutes after the alarm was
given which certainly rebounds
their credit. The home was saved
without any great amount of dam
age, but the result aside from the
property loss causes every heart to
ache and tears to flow.
The fire occurred as follows: Miss
Iva, the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Kelly, at the hour mentioned,
started to her room earring lamp,
ascending the stairs she untortu-
nately stepping upon the front of
her dress which caused her to- fall,
dropping the lamp which broke,
the kerosene at once becoming a
flame and encompassing her body
the girl was SO awfully burned that
death reulted twenty-four hours
later. ...
The funeral was held from the
home yesterday at 2 p. m. Rev.
Bryan delivered the funeral sermon.
Iva was ~ years old.-Hartley

and house Were lost. Seivert
Poppen having missed numerous
articles became suspicious of the
above named family and reported
the same to County Attorney
Crandall who at once proceeded to
investigate. Sheriff Reiter was
sent out with a search warrant and
found an iron kettle, bed spread,
table cloth, dress pattern of cloth,
and watch in Albertson house
he at once placed them under arrest
and brought them to town. An ex-
animation was held Friday fore
noon before Squire Stevens and dis
closed that Mrs Albertson had taken
the articles herein mentioned. One
day Mrs. Poppen was at Albertson g
home and saw they were cooking
potatoes in the wash basin spoke
of having a kettle Mrs. Albertson
asking if she had a kettle replied she
had and latter Mrs. Abertson was
at Mrs. Poppen' e during her absence
took the kettle. Another day Mrs.
Albertson was at Mrs. Poppen g
while she was absent to exchange
some eggs, there being no. one at
home she proceeded to go through
1T. Finding an old trunk che found
a watch in the bottom and appro-
priated it also the other articles
above mentioned which were found
about the house. The woman told
OF the transaction coWplacently and
as if it was not an unusual &C.
currence. She also admitted that
she had been in trouble twice before
in Iowa for the same offense but
was released on return of the goods.
Mr.. Albertson said they had moth
ing, no money and Mrs Albertson
being in a mother hood condition,
with two children, girl ten years
and boy four years old, the
wisdom of Attorney Crandall was
taxed to know what to have done
with them. The women was per-
tectly Indifferent when Jail
sentence was spoken of and smiled
at the suggestion of it. If she was
sent to Jail she did not know who
would take care of the children and
apparently did not care, she appear
ed perfectly insensible to any sense
of humanity or regret for her action
and her criminal liability and could
properly the termed case of total
depravity.
The county attorney moved that
the husband be discharged and the
woman fined fifteen dollars and cost,
which will amount to about thirty
dollars, and Science suspended until
Oct. 1st., both parties giving a bond
for one hundred dollars for their
appearance on or before that time.
This was the wisest conclusion that
could be arrived at as it would not
do to confne the woman in the Jail
owing to her condition and if she
was placed in Jail what would
be with the children
as the family had no rela-
tives in this vicinity or money to
procure help at the house, they
would have to be sent to the
childrens home. Mr.. Albertson said
he watched his wife all he could
and did not let her come to town On
account of her actions. She simply
seems to be an ignorant KEPT
omaniac.
