FUNERAL OF CHAPLAIN LozlER.
Will Be Held ednesday-Prominent

Will Be Held Observation-Disclosures
in Church and Lodge Circles.
Special to Times-Republican.
| Mount Vernon, Aug. 6.-The funeral
of Chaplain John Hogarth Lozier, who
died at Mount Vernon yesterday, will
be held at the Methodist Episcopal
church Wednesday afternoon at 2
O'Clock. He was prominent in church
political and grand army circles. AS a
churchman he was for many years an
active member of the Northwest Iowa
NJ. E. conference. He filled many Of
the best pulpits and was a presiding
elder for one term. For several years
he was a superannuate member and
held his residence in Mt. Vernon. For
tee of Cornell college and for three
years a financial agent. He is way
up Mason.
Chaplain Lozier was famous on the
battlefields of the civil war, not only as
a preacher when the soldiers rested
after an engagement with the enemy,
but also as a singer. His. melodious
voice was often raised in patriotic
song to cheer the dropping spirits of
his boys" and he was always ready
to oblige them at the camp fires.
When the war broke out he was
riding circuit in Indiana and preach
ing Methodism. He went into the
church bordering on the sermon he was
about to deliver and wondering wheth-
er he could impress his audience. Dur
ing his discourse a courier dashed into
the church and shouted the news:"Fort
Sumter fired on Abraham Lincoln
wants $4,000 volunteers to- put down
the rebellion"
The sermon was dropped and Rev.
Mr.. Lozier delivered a fiery war adj
dress. Before he left the church he
had organized a company and entered
himself as private. He was elected
chaplain of the Thirty-seventh Indiana
regiment, and later was promoted to
chaplain in chief to the Army of the
Cumberland. He soon established a
reputation for the singing of patriotic
songs, and would get up on a stump or
mount his horse to sing Rally Round
the Flag" and THE Sword of Bunker
Hill He became known as the fight
ing chaplain, because several times
he forgot that he was a clergyman
and joined in active war against the
confederates. Had he been captured
he would have had drumhead court
martial and been shot as a combatant.
He fought and won the battle of pro-
hibition in Iowa, and waged continual
warfare against the liquor traffic.

Sioux City, Aug. Given in danger
of frost. threatened by cold nights al
ready experienced mi August, predic-
tions for the final success of all crops
were favorable today, when 100 agents
in northwest Iowa, South Dakota and
Nebraska reported to traffic officials
in Sioux City the condition Of the ma
turing and growing crops.
Much lost time has been regained In
corn It is probably within less than
a week of where it was last year on
August 5. In parts of Iowa, especi-
ally in the section southwest of Sioux
City, the stand and condition is as
good as last year. While it as reported
that only a part of the Iowa crop is
tasseling, there are fields within mile
of Sioux City which have been in tas-
tel for from three days to a week.
Threshing returns on oats are ir-
regular, particularly in Iowa, where
yields run from % to 80 bushels to the
acre, with weight % to 30 pounds. The
reports would show, if carefully COM
piled, loss of to points in the con-
dition of oats and an improvement Of
from to 4 per cent in corn.
Black rust has been discovered at a
number of points in South Dakota and
southern Minnesota, but no serious
damage has resulted, fine weather pre-
venting it's spread. The red rust is
more prevalent, with slight injury.

Corn Crop Speculation.

SD0Cldl
Auburn, Aug. 6.-There has been
much speculation of late as to the
prospects of the corn crop. Some
think the corn is none behind what 1t
has been other seasons, while others
say it is a week or two behind. Inc
difference is probably the condition OF
the corn of the different parties giving
their opinions, but the majority OF the
farmers think the prospect very Tat
tering for good crop altho of course
that is conditional upon the kind or
weather from now on, and the lateness
Of the frost.
Those who are threshing oats do not
speak very fatteringly Of the yield;
one farmer reporting the yield as low
as by Is bushels per acre, which is the
lowest given so far. The oats were
damaged by rust.
The prospect for potatoes is not very
good at present. The early potatoes
did not get rain when they needed It,,
and the late ones appear to be about
as bad.
