We wish to say in this brief note
that it is a comfort to feel that in
our recent great trial of sickness

full; and we here say to them-neigh-
bors, relatives-all friends your
loving ministries have reached into
the depths of our hearts and brought
us near. God bless you likewise.

Memorial Sunday.

1t has been the custom since the
organization of the Grand Army of
the Republic for the Posts to at
tend religious services in the capac-
ity of society the Sunday before
Memorial Day, the services at the
time being adapted to the occasion.
In accordance with this custom ar
rangements were made here to the
end that such services were to be
held this year in the M. E. church.
Last Sunday l. N. Nichols Post, G..
A. r., and w. r. c., attended these
memorial services at this church.
The flags were conspicuously in ev-
idence, appropriate and significant
emblems of the occasion. The mu-
sic was fine. Rev. D. B. Spencer
made the invocation, an eloquent
and tender appeal. Rev. E. E.
Clough preached the memorial SER
mon, which, as matter of course,
was good. But on this occasion
DR.. Clough excelled his usual eff
forts, the theme, "The Spirit of the
Volunteer" associated with his own
vivid experiences in the civil war,
adding valuable and interesting da-
ia, inspiration and emotion. The
sermon made a profound impress
sion, an impression, the influence of
which will remain permanently for
sustaining strength and an impel-
ling aspiration for higher good.

CROP PROSPECTS Splendid.
Prosperity of Farmers Indicated by En-
tries for Hardin County Fair.

Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Aug. 16.-That the crop
prospect is the best it has been in
years. and that the farmers are pros
pering in every way, is shown by the
stock entries for the Hardin county
fair, to be held September 1851. In
the past, whenever the outlook for corn
has been poor, the entries at the courl-
ty fair have been light. This year, al
tho the fair is still three weeks off, the
sheep pens are all taken and the man
agenfent is arranging for more. Fifty
nine hog pens have already been en-
gagged and Secretary Martin has per-
sonal knowledge of many more which
will be exhibited here. The exhibition
cattle stables and yards and horse
stills have never been in demand so
early as. they have this year Altho the
race entries do not close until the 21st,
the prospect is most encouraging
partly owing. to the nine $500 purses.
1t all reflects the general prosperity
of the farmers. Prominent conserva-
tive farmers here predict that there
are "lots of fields Of corn which will go
100 bushels to the acre." Oats are
weighing out much better than was
expected

Special to Times
Clear Lake, Aug. 16.-Attorney Cen
eral MuHan, of Des Moines, is here and
is taking testimony from old residents
relative to the suit now pending, which
involves the amount of water that
shall be in Clear Lake. Mr.. Mullen is
representing the executive council and
he maintains that the county super
visors, who have heretofore been de-
Gliding all questions as to the status OF
the water, have no jurisdiction.
The matter has been one Of consid-
cradle contention, especially on the
part of farmers who own land along
the lake shore which has been flooded
during the past two years. An in
junction ordered by Judge Smith, pre-
venting any tampering with the dam
at the outlet, is still in force. Mr.. Null
Ian has been taking several excursions
with residents along he lake shore,
and is recording the testimony they
give as to the height of the water when
they first came to the place.
