On April 2. 1879, the subject of this

May They Rest in Peace.

The hand of death dealt heavily with
US during The gloomy days of last week.
Three homes were made desolate and
the hearts of many have been saddened.
"Aunty" Harker, one of the saints
of this earth has changed her abode
from the heaven she made about her
to the one where many mansions be.
If "the soul is its own place, and of
itself" does make its home surely Mrs.
Harker has been in heaven these many
years. The day succeeding her death
would have been her 77th birthday and
the many floral tributes sent, without
knowledge of her death, to grace her
anniversary, we're no less touching and
appropriate because 3 jealous loving
God decreed that that birthday should
be spent with him. We grieve with
the husband and the daughters. but
not for Mrs. Harker. Her we'll spent
cheerful helpful life has been crowned
with its reward.

Utah mormons, and to legislate against
them.

Judge Conner's Week.

This is to be Judge Corners week in
the 10th district. The congressional
convention will meet at Fort Dodge on
April l4th, and there is every indica-
Ton and assurance that Hon, j. P. Con-
ner will be renominated by acclama-
Aon. The republicans of Crawford
should show their appreciation OF the
unanimous Endorsement of their fellow
Sitizen by attending the convention in
large numbers. That the victory has
been a bloodless one makes it no less q
~dctory and Judge Corners friends
should be just as eager to show their
friendship as though contest was an
ticipated.
The honor of unanimous renomina-
zion has been fully earned by Judge
Conner and is fitting tribute to the
faithful, conscientious work he has
done in congress and for his constitu-
ents. he has taken bis position seri-
ously, not using it for personal gloriti-
cation. not trying to play to the grand
stand, but working conscientionsly for
the good of all his constituents and for
the carrying out of the principles of
republicanism in which he so earnestly
Believes.
We know that Judge Conner is man
for whom friendship never wanes. He
is not man who seeks always to make
Q good first impression. but to make q
good lasting impression. He has not
shat pompous vanity, that voluble
eQotism which too often spoils brilliant
careers. He is not boastful, nor self
assertive, but he holds his friends with
u grip of steel. The demands of his
friendship are never irksome ones
however. he appreciates every effort,
whether it be successful or not. He is
one of the few men who does not expect
tho impossible, aud whose friendship is
not dictatorial.
It is not to be wondered then thatlhis
friends are legion throughout the 10th
district, that he is known and liked and
respected by the strong men of every
county in the district and that his re-
nomination on APzr;;,, 18th z;il be made
not alone with verbal, but with heart
felt unamimity.
For ourselves we look forward with
confidence to q great Congressional
career for Judge Conner. We have
never known him to fail in anS und r.
taking. AS citizen he has been COR
ststent, progressive and helpful, as {
iurist he has long stood among the
leaders of the Western Iowa bar, as q
ihdge he was one OF the fairest and
most honorable who ever occupied the
bench. All this came from earnest.
Kard work rather than from meteoric
qualities or dazzling self-assertion.
The elements that have given him sue
cess In these avenues Of usefulness are
making for his success as q congress
man. "By their fruits ye shall know
shem." not by their verbosity, their
saf-assertiveness, and judged by this
standard no district in all Iowa is
halter represented thar the big Tenth,
and It knows 1t.
Here's to Judge Conner and bis
unanimous reconciliation, and here's tc

celery beauty Cult In London.

Celery Beauty Cult In London.
West end greengrocers have been
considerably astonished of late by a
prodigious demand which has sudden
ly sprung up for celery.
The explanation is curious one. A
large section of smart and pretty So
ciety women, together with an equally
large section who are not so conspicu-
Gus for good looks, have created Gel
cry beauty cult.
Experts have declared that no drug
in the word has the potency of celery
for producing clear complexion and
bright eyes.
1t must be eaten raw, say the eX-
perts.
1t is not only beautifier, according
to Its devotees, but it promotes health
in various ways and also inspires ener-
gy and good temper.-London Express.

MAY REMODEL OPERA HOUSE.
Plans will Probably Nature Soon Where
by Germans will Spend $4,000.


The Germania Society of Denison is
seriously contemplating the remodel
ing of their opera house in the near
future. The plans in detail have not
fully matured, but committee is
working on them. 1t is contemplated
to widen the present building to the
full width of the lots, enlarge the stage
aud put in fine balcony seated with
opera chairs. This balcony would
then be considered the best part of the
house. The back of the house would
be raised, and the dressing rooms un
der the stage enlarged and made more
convenient. In order to carry the pro
ject through the committee has thought
of soliciting our citizens for tickets for
an opening, to be given by some excell-
ent company. The so.iety itself can
not afford at this time to bear the ex-
peEse, but by selling tickets for an
opening. the work of re-modelipg
could he carried out. The tickets
would probably range in price from
$1.00 to $500 If our citizens are in
terested enough in having fine opera
house. we believe the plan good one,
but the soliciting committee will have
60 be literally supported, which we
trust they will be, that the work
of re modelling may be commenced and
completed before another summer rolls
around.

The death of Mrs. Clark Marshall, of
Charter Oak. was also one that spread
sorrow and grief throughout the county
in which her kindness. her hospitality,
her true womanliness had become pre-
verbal. She was of the type of women
who have made of Crawford county
what it is to day. To her, no less than
to her husband is due the success they
have made and the happy Christian
home they have builded. No better
monument to Mrs. Marshall's life work
could be erected tn an is to be found in
the splendid daughters grown into
noble wonanhood under her love and
care. The dearest word ofall is moth
er, the best thing on earth-a goo
mother. She is the one most greatly
to be missed. We join sincerely in the
general mourning caused by the death
of Mrs. Marshall, and we know that
her kindly, strong Drained. helpful in
fluence will live for many years.
Mrs. Trulson, whose death occurred
last week was not widely known, but
the grief of those who knew her is none
the less sincere and heartfelt. She
filled her place in life with all the love
and light of good woman and many
are sadder for her untimely death.
Since the above was in type, we have
been again called upon to mourn the
death of another pioneer woman, Mrs.
Isaac Gillmor. So many years had Mrs.
Gillmor lived among us that her death
comes as personal loss to the whole
community She was devoted, loving,
christian wife and mother, uniting the
! gentler gifts of womankiud with a.
strong intellect aud earnesrness OF pur-
poss. In Mrs. Gillmor were developed
all those characteristics which MAKE
American women The greatest in the
world. With her, religion was daily
real ty, patriotism creed. She was
we'll read, we'll versed in all that trans
pired IN he world about her. but PIE
eminently she was the careful, loving
/, wife, the tender, helpful mother
| We feel our inadequacy to the task of
pronouncing eulogy upon this sanity
woman, who was called from life to-
day. OF to offer consolation to the grief
stricken loved ones; the husband of her
youth; her middle age. and her infirmer
years the children of her love and care,
we can but mourn with them today and
give voice to the love, The esteem. the
honor in which this noble w.man was
held by all fortunate enough to come
within the sunshine and the helpfulness
of her acquaintance.

MIR. T. P Black of Dow City was
Denison caller on Monday. Mr. Black
is one OF the heaviest victims of the

many friends are sticking by him with
9 fidelity that is the best possible tcsti-
monlal to his honorable business
