A Good Thine.

German Syrup is the special pre-
scription of DIR. A. Boschee, a cele-
brated German physician, and is ac-
knowledg red to be one of the most fort
innate discoveries in medicine. 1t
quickly cures coughs, colds and all
lung troubles of the severest nature,
removing as it does the cause of the
affection and leaving the parts in a
strong and healthy condition. 1t is
not an experimental medicine, but has
stood the test OF years, giving satisfac-
tiOn in every case, which its rapidly
increasing sale every season confirms.
Two million bottles sold annually.
BOschee's German Syrup was intro.
duced in the United States in 1868, and
is now sold in every town and village
in the civilized world. Three doses
will relieve any ordinary cough. Price

AN ELOQUENT SERMON.
Major lanes H. Dandy Post, G. A. r. At
tended Morning Service at Baptist
ChurCh-Large Congregation was Pre-
sent-Pulpit Decorated with Flags
Post Members Assisted.

In the First Baptist church yester-
day morning the pastor, Rev. Percy
R. Ferris, preached an eloquent SER
mon to large congregation which
included the members of Major James
H. Dandy Post, Grand Army of the
Republic. The pulpit was prettily
trimmed with the national colorse the
desk being covered with large flag.
The pastor was assisted in the service
by Adjutant E. B. French and Com
mander Samuel G. Garretson.
Mr.. Ferris took his text from Exodus
l2, IA, "And this day shall be unto
you for memorial. " The pastor
drew some beautiful thoughts from
this, which he termed the first memoir
ial day. In commencing tho sermon
Mr.. Ferris extended welcome to the
Grand Army.
The heroic deeds, self-sacrifice and
devotion were brought out 1t was
declared that human nature seemed
to hold back the praise and honor
really due person or organization
until those deserving such laudations
had passed away. So it would be
with the Grand Army. The memory
of the veterans and what they did for
us will become more and more prec-
ious as the years pass.
The pastor spoke of the beautiful
custom of decorating the graves of
the departed comrades and told of the
first Memorial Day in this country
and how it came about. May 30, was
fixed as the date by General Logan,
then commander-in-c chief of the Grand
Army, who chose May 80, because on
that day the last soldiers of the Union
Army received their honorable dis
charge.
Adjutant French offered prayer be-
fore the sermon and pronounced the
benediction. Commander Garretson
offered the closing prayer.

Six Thousand Refugees Are to BE

DIES MONIES, Ia, June 1.-Once
more hope has been inspired in the
breasts of the 5000 flood refugees by
the report that the river has begun to
slowly decline. The condition of the
sufferers has been slightly alleviated
by the better organization of the relief
forces. But isolated instances of ex.
cred, and those who were living in rain
soaked tents have nearly all been re-
moved to places of comfort in public
buildings.
Boats afford the only means Of COM
munication between North, South and
East Des Moines and the main part of
the city. This is extremely perilous.
So far as is known but seven authen.
ticated fatalities have been reported.
The Great Western, Wabash and Bur.
lington roads have completely aban.
doned their lines in this city.
For over two days it has rained con.
stantly, and the mercury has stood
close to the freezing point. Scores OF
men, women and children have spent
hours at a TIME in soaking wet gar
ments sitting Or the roofs of theil
houses awaiting the arrival of rescuers.
The property loss will mount up into
the millions. The situation at Ottum-
wa and other points on the Des Moines
river below here is little better.
