And ALONE.
Very Sad End comesto August Haas
at Muchakinock.

August Haas, man about thirty
two years of age. was found dead in
a room of shack at MuchalinoclS,
Saturday evening about dark. He
had been seen late lin the afternoon
and foul play or suicide might have
been the cause of death Coroner
Chas. Foehlinger was summoned to
determine the matter.
Haas had been at work earlier in
the day but had complained Of pain
in the chest. He had stopped his
work for Ted Evans in the. morning
and had gone about several places
and later in the day had asked for a
place to lay down, as he was feeling
badly and wanted TO sleep. Cnas.
Cole was the occupant Of a room at
the rear of a building near the Much.
akinock drug store. He gave Haas a
key and the man went to the place
and threw himself on the bed 1t is
said that he called to a passerhy
some time in the afternoon and that
later Cole was told to go to him as
he was sick. When Cole entered the
room he was struck by the strange
appearance of the man, and going up
to him thought he was dead. He
called assistance and the fact was es.
,tablished beyond any doubt.
Upon the arrival of the coroner,
Grant Muck very kindly and gener-
ously offered the use of his residence
south of the old camp, and the body
was carried to this place and cared
for.
Haas has a sister, Mrs Walter Par
ish, residing in this city, and a broth
err viii Haas, living in Ottumwa.
The deceased was character" about
Muchakinock. He was rather weak
physically He had been ENGAGED as
hand on the Chas. Tareen and An
derson Poindexter places and had
been at odd jobs about the old mining
camp. He had considerable ability
as a violin player and made money
by singing. The man was quite a
drinker and had been indulging quite
freely for some time past. When in
his cups the man would go for days
together without taking nourishment..
The death of the fellow was caused
by heart rouble, induced by excessive
drinking. 1t was similar to the Herb
ert Lamb death that occurred in this
city several months ago. Coroner
Foehlinger did not call an inquest, as
the case was very clear.
Funeral was held Sunday afternoon
from the residence of Grant Muck,
and interment was made in Old GEM
etery, Oskaloosa.

Oskaloosa to Have Another Demon
national Home.

The denomination known as The
Reformed Church of the United
States is not something new or Wis
ionary, but represents the Oldest
child of professionalism among the de
nominations in this country. Its his.
tory dates back to the 10th century
to the time of the Reformation in
Europe. 1t stands as the liberal wing
Of the professionalism of the 10th CEN
fury There were two distinct
movements at the time of the Refor-
mation,--one championed by Martin
Luther and the other by Ulrich Twin
gle in Switzerland. These two men
commenced their warfare against the
errors of Romanism at about the
same time, and the one became dis
tinctly the child of Luther, while the
principles preached by Zwingle were
more liberal, especially bearing on
the doctrine Of the Lords Supper.
In a conference at Marburg these
two men discussed the vital subjects
of church reformed of heresy, but
differed on the question Of the Sacra-
ments. The principles of the Re-
formed church are therefore based
On church purified of ancient here
sizes and narrow views concerning the
essentials of practical Christianity.
This honorable denomination has the
distinction of having as one of it's
active members President Theodore
Roosevelt, who never misses a SER
vice when in Washington, where the
denomination has a thriving church.
The membership in the United States
is 255,SS0, and on Easter Sunday
alone over 1000 members were re-
ceived into fellowship with the
church in this country.
We certainly hail with delight the
prospect of having a congregation Of
this denomination locate in our city.
Preliminary work has been done look
ing toward an organization by Rev.
E. V. Loucks, pastor of the First Re
formed Church of Leighton, and by
his father, Rev. M. Loucks, d. D., who
was formerly editor of The Christian
World, one of the church organs.
Services will be held regularly at
the Y. M. G. A. auditorium at 1890
on each Sabbath. Last Sabbath Rev.
M. Loucks preached, and next Sab
bath Rev. e. ". Loucks will have
charge of the services. A large at
tendance and hearty encouragement
should be accorded this worthy enter
prise. $3.50"
