Died in Union City.

Geo. n. Bowen, advance agent
for the Alvin Joslyn Company, who
was stricken with pneumonia when
he landed IN Union City. died last
Friday night at the Palace Hotel.
Bowen came here a stranger, and
being without means was kindly
looked after by the good people OF
Union City. Mr.. Reynolds supplied
his board and lodging and DR.. But
Ter his medical attention. Mrs.
Casebere rendered her services as
nurse, and all this was done with
out penny's charge 1t is worth
mentioning because it was the work
of humanitarians. More than this
it was the work of good Sanarl-
tans, and no good Samaritan was
ever a stranger to the teachings of
Christ. Mr.. Bowen was a single
man. He was reared in the North
west, and from what we could learn
was the last of a family excepting
one brother, who paid him a visit
during his sickness. Neither had
any means, so it was left for the
charitable people OF Union City to
take care of the sick man, which
they did nobly. The deceased had
been an Elk, but was not in good
standing A benefit performance
was given by the Jewell Kelley
Stock Company last Thursday af-
ternoon. The weather was very
dlsagreeable and only about S25
was realized. This, of course, was
paid for medicine and nursing.
The funeral took place at East
View Saturday, services conducted
by Rev. Hudgins.

The Dads at Supper.

ors last Monday night in assuming
the role of host to his associates of
the Board of Mayor and Alderman.
An invitation from Mr.. Gardner
was accepted and a supper at
Dahnke's was enjoyed by the city
dads. Good cheer and oratory of a
very mutual character prevailed.
The toast by Mr.. Gardner and the
responses we're all en- rapport with
the occasion. These were stimu:
lated by the splendid bill of fare
la Dahnke. With the coffee and
cigars came wit and repartee. Ev-
eryone present with the exception
of Mr.. Semones made an address,
and someone was mean enough to
perpetrate joke by saying that he

altogether very pleasant affair
and Mr.. Gardner was accorded a
vote of thanks for his kindness.

An Anglo Saxon Princess

In reading of the manner and Gus
toms of the ancients it is striking to
notice with what high esteem women
were regarded; indeed, when We study
the customs of later times we are Of
ten ashamed of our immediate ances'
tors. In no country were women re-
spected more than among the Morse.
men during the Viking age, and that
they were worthy of this esteem Is
shown in the story of Thora.
On the shore of the Baltic sea,
Thora, the daughter Of King Olaf and
Asia, lived in the early part of the
seventh century. The birth Of daught-
er was great disappointment to Olaf
and his subjects, as there was no heir
to the crown, so, although the people
were becoming Christianized in many
respects, they adhered to their Gus
tom of exposing children to perish.
Asia grieved a great deal for her lit
tie daughter and often wandered out
on the wild mountain where she had
been carried. About six years later
she discovered q cave in which Z
woman and little girl dwelt. She was
attracted to the child and after many
questions found it was her own daught-
er whom a poor lonely woman had
found and reared secretly. She had
named her ThOra, saying the gods
would protect anyone bearing that
name.
Asia took her home, and for her
mothers sake Olaf received her. Then
she was formally babtixed or water.
