and churches having chartered special
cars for this sole use. All the bishops
of the church and practically all of the
higher officials, professors and editors
will be in attendance. and delegates
from all over the United States and
Canada will be here. Germany, Switz-
.erland and Japan will also send their
representatives. making this an inter-
national convention of great impor-
lance to all people interested in the
Evangelical association. Cedar River
Park is one of the beauty spots of Iowa,
located on the banks of the Cedar river,
about mile from Waterloo, and easily
accessible by river. street car or drives.
1t contains an immense amphitheater
and many beautiful summer cottages,

CAUGHT IN A LOG JAM.
TA1illing Fishing Experience II
Northern MiChlgan.

Upon one occasion In northern Mich
igan I was trout fishing in company
with a veteran timber cruiser, man
who knew everything about the rough
bush life, says writer in Worlds
Work. In time we reached bend In
the stream where lot Of small logs
had damned during the spring freshet.
My comrade unconcernedly ventured
upon the logs, and before could fol-
low by some nnschance he stepped
upon loose one and instantly disap-
peared. Had not been looking at him
1t Is likely should have imagined he
had crossed and gone into the brush
upon the farther side. One log Of all
the mass was rolling, and a hand show
ed at one side of it. To dart across and
seize the hand occupied very few Sec
onds, but to my horror could not pull
him up through the narrow space
through which he had slipped. To set
foot upon the log either side the OPEN
ing and shove with all strength was the
only hope. For seconds chung to the
wrist and strained nightly. Slowly
the logs separated and up he came till
he was able to twist upon his stomach
across log. Half drowned as he was,
he had not lost his nerve. ''Do-don't
let 'em squeeze back on mer' he gasp
ed, and a moment later he was on hts
feet. Most men would have weakened
then, but he was iron. He had swal-
lowed lot Of water, had been cheek
by jowl with an awful death, yet he
had no idea OF proving false. The logs
were slowly slipping farther apart and
I was standing like certain large gen.
tleman of Rhodes and unable to stand
much more spreading or to spring to
either side, while, of course, to slip
into the water meant to enter the trap
he had just escaped. In few seconds
he seized my hand and one quick haul
carried me to firm footing. The logs
at once closed like gigantic trap.
When we reached solid ground my COM
rade almost collapsed, and for half an
hour he was very sick man. Later
he said: II held my breath as long as ]
could, calculatin' you might try to get
me, an, pardner, I'll never forget that
little turn. l reckon was in mighty
tight place."

FAILED TO FIND FIELD WORK.
Fifty Men Roam Davenport Streets
Because Misled.

Davenport, July 2I.-F1fty pennllesS
and cherries butchers. bakers and can

streets at Davenport ard MAILING I'M
complimentary remarks about a certain
employment bureau in ST. Louis. The
agent OF the latter advertised for farm
hands to work in the harvest fields OF
Davenport, Iowa, and offered flne
wages. rooms with pianos in them,
Waldorf Astoria meals. Angelica wine
during working hours and anything else
that the workmen would desire-any-
thing to get them there to help harvest
the wheat which was rapidly popping
in the sun aud turning to flour in the
very fields.
AS a result, a great many men of st.
Louis, who were holding minor posi-
lions. such as bank cashiers and stock
BUYERS, were attracted by the glittering
offer and made haste to pay the en-
ployment agent the small sum of $3,
which he required to send them to Dav-
enport-the land of milk and honey,
where there was so much grain to har-
vest that the trains were being held up
and tails being robbed in order to get
enough help to save the enormous
crops that were going to waste In the
fields.
1t did not require long to secure $50
men, and these were loaded on board
a river packet and headed for the iowa
CITY. The men evidently grew remorse-
full and unhappy and the boat dropped
fifty of the men at Keokuk in order
that they would not be compelled to
walk SO many miles before reaching
home. The remaining 100 were hustled
up the stream as fast as the wheels
could revolve and were unloaded at this
haven Of millionaire wages to farm
hands. Here the employment man took
compassion upon the people of Daven-
port and transported but half hun
dred, taking the remainder farther up
the river to be distributed at other
places where the harvests are delayed
for lack Of help.
Saturday morning about forty of the
poor fellows who have rot so much as
smelled a breath Of sweet new mown
hay with which they expected to find
the atmosphere permeated were walk
