SACRED CONCERT
Under Direction of Prof. George at Con-
gregational Church Last Sunday.

Under Direction of Prof. George at Con-
gregational Church Last Sunday.
The program presented at the Con-
gregational church last Sunday even
ing was, if possible, superior to the
usual services of song rendered at
that place of worship. "
Professor George conducted the SER
vice and he displayed the ability of a
master in demonstrating that most
people could sing if they would only
make an attempt. He explained to
the audience how to sing and they
followed instructions, rendering the
hymns most creditably. The profess
sor was assisted by Mr.. Green, who
rendered a solo in the inimitable man
ner peculiar to him and which was
greatly appreciated by the congrega-
ton. "A Trip in the Holy Land"
was the subject of an address by Prof.
George, in which he lucidly described
the places of interest in Palestine and
the customs and manners of the in
habitants. With it's usual ability the
choir rendered many selections and
the large audience was we'll pleased
with the inspiring service of song.
Through the medium of the u n O n
Rev. Henderson and the congrega-
tional church extends thanks to Prof.
George and company for their good
fellowship in assisting at the services.

HELD FOR MANsLAueHTER.
Death Of Manson Resident Followed
Fight With Chief Of Police.

Speci to Times-Republican.
Manson, Sept. 7.-Nothing more SER
ious than manslaughter can be charged
against Chief of Police Tuller, who,
following the death of Tom Dugan as
the result Of fight at the Manson fair,
waived examination and was bound
over to await the action of the grand
jury at the November term Of the dis
trict court at Rockwell City. The au-
tor,sy held on the body of Dugan, re-
ve;lled that death was due to heart
trouble, superinduced by great excite
ment and strain.
,rullar's bonds were fixed at $4,000,
which were promptly furnished. The
prisoner is all broken up over the out
come of the unfortunate affair. The
testimony given before the coroner's
jury was not entirely favorable to the
prisoner, as it tended to show that the
chief had struck the first blow and
precipitated the fight which resulted in
Dlgan's death later.
Both were powerful men and it re-
quired the combined strength of sever
al bystanders to separate them. Dugan
then went to water trough, washed
the blood from his face, and later sank
to the ground, expiring instantly.
