aud there were notes and checks that

HONORS SOUTHERN HEROES.
Secretary of War Dickinson, as guest
of honor of the Daughters OF the Con-
federacy at the State fair at Nashville,
Tenn, yesterday, made an address, in
which he ssid
"Ialways kept conSpicuously displayed
in nv residence in Illinois portraits OF
Davis, Lee, and Jackson, and with them
the Confederate colors. They we're seen
there by our president, by the son OF
Grant, and by the son of Lincoln, and
by many union soldiers, Itneyet occur
red to me to offer explanation or apology.
Sensible people of the north know that
in cherisbing these sentiments, In hold
ing these convictions, in caring for the
graves of our dead, in erecting monu'
ments to perpetuate their fame, in giving
true history of our contest, and ia
teaching our children to reverence TIE
memory of those who sustained the
southern cause, there is no protest
against the government under which we
live"
In recalling the bitter sentiments for
merly existing on account of ,.the civil
war, Mr.. Dickinson told this story:
'I recall that Gen. Luke f. Wright
told me that one day bis boy came from
school and ssked if bis grandfather,
Raphael Sammes, was a pirate, showing
in his history where it was 80 re.

added, "hss for long time prevailed

New Rock Island Trains.

The Rock Island railroad now runs
special stock train out of DEBORAH
for Chicago, leaving here Sunday
morning at eight o'clock.
There is also good reason to be-
lieve that the short line" train,
which runs from Cedar Rapids to
West Union and return, will be ex-
tended to DEBORAH after Jan. list,
arriving here about 900 D. M, and
departing about $50 a. m. Efforts
have been made to have this run
extended to DEBORAH, and it is under
stood that the new Rock Island man.
agement is disposed to be more lib
eral with the branch lines, so that
our hopes in this respect may soon
be realized The extension of this
run will be a great convenience to
Decorah and the other towns on the
line.

cOrah Passes Away Early This
Morning.

Expressions of sorrow on every
hand have greeted the news of the
death at six o'clock this morning, of
Mr.. E. j. Riley, we'll known pioneer

ally grown worse until the end came
Edward John Riley was born in

in 1855 came TO America with his
parents, locating at Dubuque, Iowa,
where he remained one year, and
then came to DEBORAH in 1856, where
he has since made his home. March

CT whom are living: Fred j., of
Phillips, Wis; Walter E., of Fart

Mr.. Riley was engaged in the lum
Der business in DEBORAH for many
years and was one of the best known
men in the county. Through all the

has born the universal respect and
esteem of everyone. Ed. Riley was
always known as "a good man"
Kindly, sympathetic, upright, honor

Occupies Commodious Quarters.

l.. R. Morrison was busily en-
gagged yesterday in moving his stock
of new and secondhand goods into
the Stringer building, opposite his
former location. This is the store
room formerly occupied by Fred
Walter, is a large, modern, convent
ent location, and will give him mrsh
better opportunity to display and
sell his goods. Mr. Morrison started
in business in DEBORAH in a small
way few years ago, and by careful
attention to his business, by honor
able methods and fair dealing, has
built up large patronage, outgrow-
ing his present quarters. The new
location is one of the best in the
city, and he will no doubt largely
increase his business here.

were dangerous, and it is thought
that railing will be a great I'M

ball entering near the spinal column.
He then fired three shots at his wife,
but missed her, and fired at himself,
the ball grazing his hat. He then
opened a small pocket knife and cut
his throat, but did not inflict dan
gerous wound. He was arrested and
placed in jail,

hips down from the effects of her
wound, and may not recover.
