LATE w. G. HEARNE.
Remains Are Inferred With Fitting
Honors BY Lodges.

The funeral of the late William e.
Hearne was held Thursday afternoon
from the st. James Episcopal church
on South Third street, at two-thirty
o'clock, and was quite largely attend
ed. The arrangements and the de-
tails of the service were as nearly as
possible the careful following out
the expressed wishes of the deceased
There was private service at the
home of w. E. Kemble at two O'Clock,
at which Rev. ]. w. Somerville lead
and Mrs. SomerVille sang Carey's
zone Sweetly Solmen Thought" The
casket was removed from the house
to the church and shortly after two
thirty the public service was COM
menced. 1t was an impressive and
touching service. The Episcopal
choir furnished the music and Rev.
w. H. Frost, Rector, gave the eulogy.
In very fitting words he expressed
sentiments touching the life of the
deceased. .<...
William Eyles Hearne was born in
London, England, February IL, 1S4S.
He came to this country with his par
ents when about fourteen years of
age residing with an uncle in New
York. He came to Iowa and to Oska'
loosa in 1885, and though he has been
absent from the city a number OF
times, he, has always been pleased to
call the city his residence place. A
wife, a resident of this city, and a
sister, living at the home place in a
suburb of London, are the surviving
members of his family. He has been
a member of the Episcopal church
from birth. He was received into
the church as a babe and confirmed
as a youth and since coming to Os'
kaloosa was more or less closely con-
nected with the st. James church
He was a Mason since 1875, affiliating
with the order when still resident
Of New York. Coming to Oskaloosa
he became local member and TOOK
degrees in the Knights Templar and
the Shrine. He was honored by the
highest Office in the gift Of the Tenn
MARS. He was also member OF Os'
kaloosa Lodge of Elks and had been
honored by Office in this organization
In touching upon his life and char
acter Rev. Frost said that he was pos
sessed of a strange character. With
all and at most times he was inclined
to be reserved, quiet, uncommunlca
tive and INEXPENSIVE even with the
closest of his friends,--a strange
character. Placed among his loveo
flowers and plants, surrounded with
his blossoms, he was in his elemen'
and the strangeness and the reserve
disappeared. Here the beauty OF Ms
character was seen. He was a mas

AT THE TENTED CITY.
Big Gatherings at the Holiness
Camp Meeting.

held at the association grounds east
of the city is progressing very sue
cessfully. More tents are being erect
ed and additional campers are arriv-
ing on the grounds each day. The
attendance at the meetings is keep
ing up well. At the meeting Sunday
afternoon the crowd in attendance
numbered six or seven hundred peo-

country. The double tent was un-
able to accommodate the, audience
that assembled Sunday afternoon but
additional seats have been promised
and they will be able to seat any who
may come. There was another large
crowd at the evening meeting.
Saturday was marked by interest
