Harry Webster.

The community was shocked on
Monday evening to learn of the
death by suicide of Harry Webster,
the well known stock buyer, about
five O'Clock. He had been about town
during the afternoon, seemingly as
well as ever, and after purchasing a
revolver and some carbolic acid,
went to the little office building near
the Milwaukee stock yards, and after
locking himself in, shot himself in
the right temple. Physicians were
Immediately called, and he died soon
after their arrival. 1t is thought
that melancholy spell, brought on
by recent illness, had affected his
mind and caused him to take his life.
He was born in Burr Oak town
ship, August 80, 1865, and was the
eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ephriam
Webster. For the past fourteen
years he has been engaged in the
buying of cattle in DEBORAH, and was
an excellent judge of stock. He leaves
to mourn his loss wife, two daugh-
ters and one son, three sisters and
one brother, and mother. The flu
neral services will be held from the
home on Washington street Thurs
day afternoon at two o'clock, Rev.
F. G. Young officiating.
Mr.. Webster was a good neighbor,
a kind and affectionate father, and
Industrious citizen, who was
well liked by everyone, and his sad
death has ELECTED universal SYM
pathy.

for eleven years, as Mayor of Cal
mar for two years, as Town Re-
corder for twelve years, and as
Town Attorney for several years
past.
He became the secretary of the
school board at the time of the or
ganization of the Independent Dis
trict of Calmar over thirty years
ago and held that Office consecutive
ly to the time of his death.
Mr.. Kaye Joined the Masonic order
when thirty years of age, at Geneva,
Wis, Lodge No. "A. When he
moved to Calmar he became a mem
Der of Copestone Lodge, No. 316, A.
F. and A. M. He was also a mem
Der of the order of the Modern
Woodmen of America.
In the midst of the arduous du-
ties of his profession, Mr.. Kaye
found time to write and publish
many articles and poems, some of
which appeared in the Overland
Monthly and Century magazines.
His first book, volume of poems
entitled Facts and Fancies" was
published in 1874. Songs of Lake
Geneva" was brought out by G. P.
Putman's Sons in 1882. "Vashti,"
a poem in seven books founded on
the book of Esther, was published
by the same firm in 1894.
In addition to these publications
there is now in press his latest
writing, a narrative poem in blank
verse entitled " The Trial of Christ"
This poem will be issued by Sher-
man French & Co., of Boston, some
time this spring.
Mr.. Kaye was married in Wiscon-
sin, April II, 1872, to Miss Fanny
Greene. OF this union ten children
were born, seven of whom survive
to mourn the loss of a devoted
father. The children are: Percy
Greene, deceased; Mary Gertrude,
Alice Edna, Sarah Elizabeth, Abb
ram Lyle, Fanny Gladys, Vashti
Brayshaw; John Brayshaw, Jr., and
Katherine Beatrice, both deceased;
and Helen Marjory.
In July, 1900, Mr.. Kaye sought a
much needed rest in trip to the
land of his birth and to various
points OF interest on The continent.
Returning home, he resumed active
practice, which he continued up
until few weeks ago, when he was
taken seriously i'll with pneumonia,
from which he seemed to rally and
gave hopes of recovery, but suddenly
the disease took turn for the worse,
and he passed away Saturday even
ing.
The professional and literary ca
reer of Mr.. Kaye stands at the fore
front among the prominent citizens
of northeastern Iowa. For years he
has been recognized as one of the
ablest attorneys in this section, and
as writer of unusual talent and
ability, the product of his pen may
be found in many home, where
his works are cherished by those
who have been fortunate enough to
possess them. In his death Winnie
shiek county loses one of it's best |
citizens, man of power, of ability, |
of character, and of demeanor that |
is well worthy of emulation. The |
grief at his passing is general.
The funeral services were held at |
his home in Calmar yesterday after
noon, Rev. H. H. Green of this city |
officiating, with addresses by Judges

BuckneIl Loses to Herdmap

At Riceville Saturday night Harry
Bucknell attempted to wrestle Ralph
Herdman of that place, and throw
him three times in one hour. Herd
man weighs EOS pounds and is a
powerful athlete and splendid
wrestler, and Bucknell got only one
fall in the hours time, losing the
match. 1t is said that they are very
closely matched, and an even wrestle
between them would make an in

Stay ON the Farm.

Young man, do not take up the
study of medicine unless you are
morally certain that you are fitted
for carving out for yourself a bril-
liant future in that profession.
About 10000 medical graduates are
being turned out by the colleges
each year. while there is need of
only about $500, according to one
of our most distinguished FRACTION
ers. Better stay at home on the
farm, where brain, Drawn and en-
ergy will always win its own re-
ward. The well-to-do farmer of to-
day is the most Independent man

Your Name on Your Tools.

Do you know that you can write
your name on the metal of your
farm tools? You can. Just take a
little tallow or beewax, melt 1t and
spread 1t over the place on which
you want your name-write your
name down through the wax with
big needle or anvil, and pour few
drops of nitric acid over the letters
you have made. Leave a few minu-
ties, then wipe off the wax and your
name will be on the iron.
