Yeoman Installation.

Saturday evening Walkers
hall was filled to it's utmost ca
pacity by members Of the Yeo-
man Homestead, it being the
occasion of the annual installa-
ton of new officers. But few
visitors were present, as no gen
eral invitation was extended to
outsiders for the reason that it
was known that the Yeomen
who would attend would practi-
cally fill the hail. There being
several strangers at the gate
who were DESTROYS of taking the
degrees, it was nearly II o'clock
before the ceremony of installa-
ton begun. The several officers
elect were duly installed in their
several positions by Past Fore
man A. G. Brown as follows:
F O Schmitt, Foreman.
Samantha Cox, M
j Wisecup, M A
V | Tamisiea, Cor
Luella Coffman, Physician
Albert Smith, Overseer
Ella Myers, Lady Rebecca
Susan Mace, Lady Rowena
j B Frazier, Waterman
F M Golden, Sentinel
Ed Hall, Guard
Ella Mace, Courier
The lodge was organized four
years ago with 101 charter
members and has steadily in
creased until now it has over
$50 beneficiary members. Re-
freshments were served after
the installation. The following
visitors were present from Lo-
gan: Mr. and Mrs Goodman,
Mr. and Mrs S R Palmer, Mrs
Mary P Howard, Mrs Pearl
johnson and Miss Viola Owens.

Celncllbluffs Man meets Death
in Railroad Yards

Albert N. Bower, of Council
Bluffs, met a terrible death in
the railroad yards in this city
some time last Saturday night.
About 3 o'clock Sunday NOR
ming the night switch crew, j.
w. Denton, engineer, j w Howe
fireman, and James 10y, switch
man, found the body of a man
lying between the rails of the
east main line, and toward the
north end of the yards. The
body was mangled almost be-
yond recognition. The head
was literally split open, the
breast was crushed in, the right
arm was severed from the body
near the shoulder, and the left
arm was hanging by a shred.
The remains were picked up
and taken to Foss undertaking
rooms, and on examining his
clothing a memorandum book
was found which gave his name.
There was also a pawnt ticket of
a Council Bluffs broker, given
some time Saturday, and 35 cts
in money.
A message was sent to
Council Bluffs to Bowers
father, who came up to
take charge of the remains. He
said his son was "a years old
and unmarried; that he left his
home last Saturday morning
but did not state that he was
going to leave the city. He was
a plumber by trade and his faith
err thought he had come here
looking for work.

Modern woodnlan Installation

The Modern Woodman of
America was instituted at
Lyons, Iowa, January 5th,
1883, therefore, it is just of age,
now and the Woodmen all over
the U. S. are fifty celebrating
the event.
The M. w. A. and the Royal
Neighbors held a public joint
installation last evening in the
hall of the lattar. District De-
putty Head Consul Littlefield,
of Council Bluffs, was installing
officer and right gracefully did
he perform that office. Consul
Littlefield and Neighbor A. G.
Brown made short speeches in
which Mr.. Brown recounted
the fact that the Modern Wood
men with their TAO, 900 members
and with over a billion dollars
of insurance in force, was the
largest fraternal insurance
company extant. The Foresters
team gave a very skillful and
entertaining drill showing they
have been putting in some good
practice. The Royal Ne!!ghbors
were installed by installing Of
ficer, Mrs. Jno. w. Knight and
exceedingly we'll did she do it.
The Royal Neighbors deserve
credit for their graceful floor
work.
But, the piece-de-resistance
awaited the company land the
hall was crowded in the ban
Duet hall. After supper, the
toast master, DR.. Warren,
chosen by the red headed COM
mittee, arose and in a labored,
oratorical effort introduced the
Wooden men, who were to re-
spond. Neighbor j. S. Dewells
toast was upon "Fraternal In
surance, or, why it is better to
die young, leaving a sum suffi-
Gent to keep ones family in
luxury than to live to a good
old age and pay big annual
premiums" The caption was
longer than the speech, for, as
a matter of fact, Mr.. Dewell
did not take up the allotted
time.
The next speaker, the Hon.
j. d. Kirkwood desconted upon
the Royal Neighbors, or, the
beauty of having a wife who
belongs to a lodge. Mr.. Kirk
wood handled the subject with
vigor, carrying conviction to
his hearers and showing plainly
that he was a veritable Boon
Brummell. But the cap-sheep
of eloquence was the effort of
Neighbor G. w. Kellogg upon
"The Universal Brotherhood of
Man" being an argument in
favor of the extention of
Woodcraft into every cline for
the purpose of spreading that
beautiful teaching of our
Saviour, peace on earth, good
will toward men. Mr.. Kel-
logg's talk elected many bursts
of applause and the peoration
was a grand symphony. Those
who failed to hear it missed a
rare treat. Many present left
the banquet hall too soon and
thereby failed to catch the
sharp reportee and bon mots
which were shot across the
tables. Twas a marked sue
cess, socially and gastronomi-
cally, and greatly enjoyed by
lall Of the Wooden men.

6. A. r. and W. e. C. Installation
One of the most pleasant
events in the history of Belden
Post No. SO G. A. r. was the
| joint installation of officers
last evening. The G. A. r.
hall was packed and standing
room wasat premium. The old
soldiers came for a good time
and there is no doubt but that
all present enjoyed themselves
and will long remember the oc-
casion. Comrade John A. Ira
yer, of Dunlap, was the install
ling officer aud before formally
installing the new officers made
a splendid address which was
heartily applauded. Mrs. Stew
art, of Logan, who was to have
installed the officers of the Wo-
mems Relief Corps was unable
to be present and Mrs. Clara A.
Davis Was chosen as installing
officer. Mrs. Hartshorn made
a good address in behalf of the
ladies of the Women's Relief
Corps. After the installation
the whole audience joined in
singing old army songs until a
late hour after which delicious
refreshments were served by
the w. r. C. Belden Post G..
A. r. has sixty nine members.
During the past year there has
been one death that of Comrade
John Barkhuff. The next re-
gular meeting of the Post will
be held January II.
H. H. Mckinney, ex-county
treasurer, was a Valley visitor
tOdaV. His old friends were all

king it possible for rapid work
on the Updyke Elevator. From
fifty to sixty men are now en-
ployed, and the frame work on
the operating department will
soon be completed.
Mr.. and Mrs. C. w. Parker,

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear a
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like a vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves its
reputation is conceded. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics OF Pure Cod Liver Oh,
combined with tho Compound
Syrup OF Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts OF Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such u record OF
success in Sorofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles. and
omaoiating complaints and dis
orders that tend TO undermine
the foundations Of strength and
ylgour. lts use helps 10 show

THE CASE OF DOW.

The most amazing thing this paper
has seen in print of late is the bust
ness mems Endorsement of II. NJ Dow
The Advertiser was not surprised at
his Endorsement by the Republican
Territorial Committee: but when men
who are supposed to be always vigil
liant for honest fiscal methods came
out for Dow 1t began to look as II the
town needed strong infusion of civic
Righteousness.
But the Governor rings true In the
matter as appears In the following in
terView
Il see that the Republican Central
Committee endorses Mr. Dow for the
position OF warden of oahu prison, -
remarked Governor Carter 81 see
also that there is an endorsement Of
MIR Dow signed by many prominent
persons In this city. This Is a great
surprise 10 me. This so-called ymdl-
cation greatly surprised me, Either
the people who affixed their signatures
thought very little ~ what they were
doing or else what h considered the
standard ~ responsibility in matters
OF trust Is rather low. such "a yIudi-
