PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, MANILA, Iowa.

Last winter the pastors held union re-
vival meetings, and as result there
was large accession to the mem
bership of both churches. Rev. La
cey admitted in the year ffty-fve to
his church and Rev. Gable reported
in about the same accessions.
We have thought that a brief
sketch of the career of Rev. Lacey
would not be out of place at this time
when he has done so much to make
the meeting of the Presbytery sue
cess. This we present as follows:
Rev. Ulysses Grant Lacey. the able
and popular pastor for the Presby

near the city of Columbus. Franklin

maturity. After duly availing him

the beginners. Mr.. Alfred. the furni-

the Sunday school and is doing from
all reports good work.
The pastor. Rev. Ulysses G. Lacey.
has been with the church since one
year ago last March. With the prop

he would not only dwell in harmony
with the sister Methodist church but
would be in close touch with the pas

had the same friendly spirit and sc
the best of fee ling has prevailed.

Rest is the great restorer. We tire
our muscles by exercise and then rest
to restore them: yet a great many Of
us do not stop to think how little rest
we give to our stoinachs. As usual
thing no part of our bodies is so
generally overworked as our digestive
organs. A tired and overworked
stomach will give signs of distress to
which we pay no heed until at last
Dyspepsia takes hold. Indigestion is
just warning, and if we heed the
warning we can easily avoid further
consequences. KODOL is a most
thorough stomach relief. 1t digests
what you eat and gives the stomach
the needed rest and greatly assists in
restoring it to its normal activity and
usefulness. KODOL is sold here by
Lamborn Drug Co.

of college work he was recommended by

connection he labored zealously and
effectively for nearly five years, with

operation of his people. he effected
the erection of a church ediice in
each of the villages mentioned. and
none of these buildings represented
an expenditure of less than fifteen
hundred dollars. The membership was
doubled in the churches in Went

the roll of members was augmented
by three times the original number
represented. During his earnest lab

PREFERRED DEATH
To CAPTURE BY
GUATEMALANs

Mexico City. May 2s.--Full informa-
tion of the suicide OF four prominent
Guatemalans and the Imprisonment
and sentencing to death of 19 men sus-
pected OF completely in the attempted
murder OF President Cabrera early this
month has been received through offi
cial and private channels The state

review. Pending the action of this
tribunal. the diplomatic corps Is with
note demanding that the imprisoned
men be given fair trial.
According TO a private telegram the
cause @ e1 Of the Incident were @ DR.. Julio
". Blanco. DIR. Joerge A. Villa, DIR.
Echeverria and Baltasar Rodil, a civil
and belonged TO the first families Of
the republic.
The story OF the capture and subsequent
death OF these men is dramatic. AS soon
as the mine was sprung they left Guate-
mala City because II is said they feared
that Cabrera would trump up charge
against them. They returned later and
went into hiding
Gen. Vivanduery OF the Guatemalan
army heard OF their return and, going TO
the aged mother OF Echeverria, pointed
revolver at her breast and forced her to
disclose the hiding place OF the men. The
police surrounded the house and a battle
ensued in which Commandant Moreno
and another officer were killed. Rein
forcements were then called for and 300
OF the regular army surrounded the house.
The official report says the four men
therenpon committed suicide. The SOL
diers took their bodies and threw them
In sewers in the suburbs Of the city. This
act SO incensed the people that the diplo-
matte corps was appealed TO and Minister
Gamboa demanded the bodies. Upon this
representation they were finally turned
over and later buried with great honors.
Later the 10 suspects were imprisoned
and sentenced to death by court-martial

District Attorney Robert T. Devlin and
United States Marshal c. T. Elliott have
begun an investigation of the wrecking
of q Japanese restaurant on Folsom street
several weeks ago.
According to the police reports. the
trouble started between a union teamster
and two union fathers. The former. con-
trary TO union principles, was eating in a
japanese restaurant when the fathers en-
tered and demanded OF the teamster that
he leave the place or give up his union
button. The teamster refused TO do either
and a fight ensued during which the
tables were upset and dishes broken. At
tracted by the fight. a crowd gathered and
wrecked the front OF the restaurant be-
fore the police arrived
X. Iatsubara, acting Japanese consul
and his secretary, d. s. Richardson spent
some time with Devlin yesterday, who
later took the statements of the japanese
restaurant keepers
Mr.. Devln said: II have not completed
my investigation, but have telegraphed
to Washington the facts have learned so
far. j am merely taking the statements
OF both sides and will make the attorney
general acquainted with the facts in the
case"

Commission MEN
WIN IN FIGHT WITH
THE PACKERS

Chicago. May 2s.-Because OF the en-
forcement by the big packers OF their
new rule requiring post mortem inspec-
tion OF cows and heifers as a condition OF
purchase. only the high class grades Of
beef were sold at the stock yards yester-
day for the Chicago trade.
II was the first day of the enforcement
OF the post mortem rule and the first skir-
mish between the packers and shippers OF
live stock and the commission men.
The big packing firms did not succeed
in buying a solitary COW or heifer, ac-
cording TO the returns made to the COM
mission men at the close of business
None OF the 5000 animals numbered In the
list OF the days receipts OF "cow stuff"
remained unsold. however an being sent
to other cities and on this showing the
commission men insisted that the big
firms were routed In the first skirmish.
The sales, however, were ar prices from
10 to % per cent below the range OF prices
at the close OF last weeks market.
Causes that contributed to the success
OF the commission men in their efforts to
sell out everything were the cooperation
OF the shippers In the country and the de-
mands of the independent" trade. Re-
newed appeals to the country buyers and
shippers TO keep their cows and heif-
ers'' out OF the Chicago market for the
present were sent out over the wires.
