orangemen will have a celebration
at Deep River July IL.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1904-07-07

The city has long been known as
center of churches, and it is due to
its moral and religious character that
large numbers of people from all the
leading cities in the state have been
coming to Oskaloosa during the sum-
mer months for number of years.
So it is fitting that she should take
advantage of her growing popularity
and invite still larger multitudes to
share her hospitality and opportuni.
ties for recreation. !
The world will have its amusement
spells, and the congregation of peo
pie in large cities and manufacturing
centers is not conducive to morality.
Scattering them, bringing them in
touch with healthier and higher NOR
al tone, mingling with the people
from the country and taking an enjoy
able day off for recreation and amuse-
ment is beneficial to mankind.
The Parker Carnival will present
the greatest program of clean and
wholesome entertainment ever offer
ed the people of Iowa, and to that pur-
pose the carnival committee has Sc
cured Americas representative
amusement institution, the Great Par
ker Amusement Company, to furnish
the pike" features. This aggrega-
tion comes to us highly endorsed by
the many other cities where they
have been in the past, as a clean,
moral show conducted by men of
honor, integrity and long experience.
They will bring to our city two spe.
cial train loads of costly parapherna-
liza and over three hundred people.
Three pOnderous electric light and
power plants are carried by Mr.. Par
ker to furnish light and power for
the numerous free attractions and
shows. The irresistible pike" will
blossom out with electric effulgence
under this influence, and the glitter of
the gold and silver leaf on the costly
hand carved wagon fronts will pre-
sent a veritable open page in fairy
lands bower never equalled before.

THE JURY DISAGREED
Unable to Return a Verdict in the
Wells Damage Case.

The jury in the damage suit or
Wells VS.. Hooking Coal Co., which
retired about o'clock Saturday after
noon, notified Judge Clements that
they were unable to agree, and were
excused by the court about 10 o'clock
in the evening.
1t will be remembered that the case
was tried before eleven men, as one
member of the jury had to be ex.
cused because of illness after the
case was well along. The jury stood
ten for a verdict for Wells and one
for Mr.. Gibbs. AS there was no pros
pect of change the jury finally de
cided to return verdict of disagree
ment. The result is one that both
sides Of the case were afraid of. Each
one wished verdict one way or the
other to avoid anew trial OF the case.
1t is generally understood the case
will be appealed to the supreme court,
but this can not be done until a de-
cision is secured in the loWer court
The case is one in wH4h w. A.
Wells, of Buxton, broum$ suit for
$4,000 against E. III. lbs, of this
city. Wells claimed M had an op-
tion on Hooking CosWfcompany prop
erty and was to have all he could ger
over $4,000. The property was sold
on June 2, 1902, to the present Hook
ing Coal company for $550,000. The
defense contended that the option ex-
pired on the Both of May, while Wells
claimed it was extended fifteen days.
Mr.. Guernsey, of Des Moines, and
John F. Lacey were attorneys for
Wells, and George w. Sewers ana
Judge Blanchard for the defense.
The case was rigidly contested on
both sides and the display of legal tai
ent was such that almost every law
yer in the country attended the trial
much as they would a school of in
struction. No greater legal weight
was ever brought to bear on civil
suit in Mahaska county.

IOWA CROP BULLETIN.
Conditions in the State as Noted by
the Weather Bureau.

Des Moines, July 6.-Though the
average daily temperature was to .
degrees below the normal, yet there
was sufficient warmth and sunshine
during the week to maintain healthy
and vigorous growth of corn and 9th
er cereal crops. Conditions were
better, especially for oats, spring
wheat and barley, than would have
been the normal heat and moisture or
the first of July. The small grain
crops are now generally free from
rust, and though short in straw the
heads are filling well, giving promise
of a fair yield of we'll developed
grain. The corn crop has made fair
ly good progress, being generally well
cultivated, and many of the most ad-
vanced fields have been laid by in
good condition as to size and vigor OF
plant.
The stand is materially below per
feet stand, or 100 per cent, and this
has been measurably true of every
corn crop grown in the state in the
past wenty years. The final output
of the crop. whether it shall be up to
or below the actual average of the
past decade, depends wholly upon fu-
ture weather conditions. Haying IS
in progress, with variable reports as
to the yield; all accounts agreeing
that the quality is good. Potatoes,
apples, berries, and the minor crops
generally, are doing well.

Arm Accidentally Amputated.

John NJ. Barlow, son of the chief
engineer at Dehon & Preiean's Lula
central factory, lost his left arm Tues
day forenoon as the result of an I'M
fortun ate accident. The young man,
who is employed at the factory as
greaser, was engaged in cleaning the
cane rollers when the sleeve of his
shirt on the left arm was caught in the
cogs and the arm drawn in between
the wheels. Barlow's cries attr acted
the attention of the engineer in charge
and the machinery was stopped as
soon as possible, but not before the
unfortunate boys arm had been COM
pletely severed above the elbow. DR..
T. H. Hanson, of Donaldsonyille, and
DR.. Fl. A. Leblanc, of Assumption,
were summoned and found it neeess airy
to further amputate the arm near the
shoulder. At last accounts the young
man was resting well and no fears are
entertained that the accident will prove
fatal.

Ascension ACADEMY Literary Society.

| A successful and interesting meeting
of the Ascension Academy Literary
Society was held Friday night OF last
week in the assembly hall of the Acad-
envy, and afforded much pleasure and
enjoyment to q large audience made
up of the members Of the organization
and their parents and immediate
friends. The society was organized a
couple of years ago by r. McCulloh,
former parish superintendent of edu-
cation, and Prof. J. L. Rusca, princi-
pal of Ascension Academy, and has
become one of the most influential
factors in promoting the growth OF a
spirit Of zeal and ambition among the
students OF the institution. The pres
ent officers are: Miss Loretta Monte
cino, president; Miss Emily hodrigue,
secretary; Harry Weber, acting critic.
Meetings are held every Friday
night and the proceedings comprise
vocal and instrumental selections,
recitations, debates, dialogues, ETC.,
thus proving OF much value and bene-
fit to the members while afording
amusement as well.
The program of last Fridays enter
tainment was prefaced by an address
by the president, Miss Montecino, in
which she took occasion to extend
hearty welcome to Prof. D. B. Sho-
walter. the new parish superintendent.
Vernon Sims, on behalf of the boy
pupils Of the Academy, read an ad-
dress Of welcome to Prof. ShOWalter
il a manner that brought forth en-
thusiastic applause from his hearers.
The debate, "Resolved. That Immi-
grafton is Detrimental to the United
States, was one of the most interest
ing features of the entertainment, and
both sides of the question were handled
in an able and thorough manner by
the gifted young speakers. After much
consideration, the judges, r. N. Sims,
Florian Himel and Prof. Showalter,
awarded the decision to the advocates
of the negative side of the question,
Maria Oubre and Harry Weber. One
of the pleasant incidents of the meeting
was the presentation to Mr.. McCulloh
OF handsome bronze bust of Alfalfa,
which took place at the close Of the en-
tertainment. Miss Agathine Kern ten
dered the gift on behalf Of the pupils
of the Academy and the surprised re-
cipient responded in his usual happy
and felicitous manner.
The program was as follows:

Distinguished Visitors at Evan Hall.

Among the many prominent per-
sonages and government officials who
visited New Orleans last week were
Hon. Wilbur F. Wakeman, formerly
chief appraiser Of customs at the port
of New York and now secretary and
treasurer of the American Protective
Tariff League, and Hon. A. W.
Cooley, member of the United States
Civil Service Commission. These dis
tinguished gentlemen, accompanied by
Mrs. Wakeman, Hon. Henry Mccall,
collector of customs at New Orleans,
and his sister, Mrs. W alter 2. Flower,
also of New Orleans, visited the Mccall
Bros Planting and Manufacturing
Company's Evan Hall plantation, in
this parish, all of the party except Mr..
Cooley coming by Thursday evenings
train. The civil service commissioner
only reached New Orleans from Wash
ington Friday morning, and he fol-
lowed the others to Evan Hall on the
train which arrived there just before
noon. Mr.. Mccall and his sister en-
tertained their guests in a manner that
left nothing to be desired, and it goes
without saying that the experience was
altogether enjoyable to the visitors,
who had never before witnessed the
operations of a Louisiana sugar plan
tation and factory, The party re-
turned to New Orleans Friday eve
ming and Commissioner Cooley left for
W ashington the following night, Mr..
and Mrs. Wakeman remaining a
couple of days longer TO take part in
the reception and entertainment of the
secretary of war and his travelling
companions who are en- route to Pan
ANA.
