Ihls, OF course, demonstrates that for
three years, at least, there has moi been
any increase in the levy of taxes by
ShIt Lake City. Vet, Notwithstanding
tins condition Of affairs, taxes have in
creased TO some extent, and the citv
administration has been called TO ac-
count and blamed for an increase. The
truth in fact is that the prosporous
condition of this community has added
to the value of the real estate, and the
county assessor in the line Of his duty
has seen fit to increase the valuation
so rs 10 mako n marked increase in thc
amount OF taxes to be paid by the prop

u. S. Army Man Says:

MIR. Horace R. Butts, Provi-
dence, r. L, a u. S. Army man,
many years ago on account of
the hardships of army life had
dyspepsia and stomach trouble
so bad that he could scarcely
eat. He took Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey, which gave him
immediate relief. He recon-
mends it as an invigorating
stimulant and body builder.
Il have used Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey for many years and find
that it is all that il claims to be. Dur
ing my twenty-four years of service
in the L. S. Army I was being con
stantly transferred from place soI

Knoxville, Ia, Aug. 24.-A frightful

Smith was fatally injured, and Mr..
Smith is a mass of bruises and con.
tusions. The injured woman is hurt

Mr.. and Mrs. Smith were driving to
Columbia to attend a camp meeting.
While going at brisk trot the buggy
tongue fell and the team, a pair of
colts, instantly became unmanage-
able, throwing Mr.. Smith out at the
first turn. He held to the lines until
torn loose by bridge railing after
being dragged 100 yards. Mrs. Smith
was holding her baby but finally
threw 1t into the weeds. A few Sec

"ALABAMA" Is REcAPTuRED.
Negro Who Escaped From Abba Jai
Caught at Creston.

Abba, Aug. 24.--Chas. Adams, alias
Alabama" who escaped from the
Monroe county Jail last Tuesday night
by cutting a hole through the slate
roof, has been captured at Creston
by Policeman Exline. Sheriff Griffin
had notified every police officer with
in hundred miles of Abba and made
1t physical impossibility for the
negro to remain at liberty for any
length of time. The sheriff got track
of Alabama at the tower west of AL.
bia the night he made his escape
and he kept track of him until he
reached Omaha; then the negro saw
that he was being Swallowed by the
police of that city and he jumped a
freight with the intention of return
ing east. At Creston Policeman Ex-
line saw him jump out of a box car
and he called to him to throw up his
hands, but instead of doing as COM
manded he took to his heels with the
policeman hot after him, plugging
away with his gun until all the cham
bers were empty. Two blood hounds
were then put on his trail and his
capture was effected without blood
shed. Ben Brewer, the white man who
also made his escape a few minutes
before Alabama" got his freedom, is
still at large, but will probably be
captured before the close of the week.

Central M. {. Church.

The activity of the chautauqua
seems to have depleted the attendance
at the session OF the Sunday school,
only $50 being present. The vacation
season is now practically over and
we look for a larger attendance in the
weeks to come. During the morning
service. the EpwOrth League Quar-
tette rendered I'VE Shall Walk With
Him in Light" The quartette is COM
posed of Misses Brewer and Graft and
Messrs Snyder and Barnhart. Instead
of the regular sermon, an original
story was read by DR.. Allen. The
story was along somewhat unique
lines and depicted the dream of a
business man, in being shown about
the City OF Zion and here were re-
realed to him many of the short COM
ings of Christian people on earth,
particularly along the line OF bene-
violence. The causes of education,
Freedman's Aid, Sunday Schools, the
Bible Course and Conference Claim
ants, were touched upon and their
various needs illustrated. Tie social
club will meet at the home of Mrs.
r. +. Redman on A avenue east on
Tuesday afternoon. All ladies of
the church are invited. At the SER
vice of the Epworth League in the
evening, the quartette again sang
effectively, Let the Light OF Heaven
Shine In The subject considered
was Faith" and the service was led
by Miss Mary Mcclure. A sociai will
be held by the young people on Tues
day evening of this week. A large
audience was present in the evening
when DR.. Allen presented his I'm
pressions of Carrie Nation" and also
discussed the New Religion of DIR.
Elliott. During the evening fine
bass solo was rendered by Dr. Tony.
He sang Rocked in the Cradle OF the
Deep" in a very effective manner. In
his impressions OF Carrie Nation,
DR.. Allen said that he was greatly
impressed by her personality. Her
whole appearance was that OF force
full character. 1t would be very diff
cult for any one to estimate the good
that she had probably done the cause
of temperance In Kansas and else
where. We may not agree with her
methods as they were no doubt law
less, but we must remember that she
was driven TO desperation by the
constant neglect and indifference OF
the officers Of the law, who would not
do their duty. Sometimes even law
breaking results in good, although

Both morning and evening services

preached two excellent sermons. In
the morning few matters of business
were disposed of. Leon Wilcox, as
sistant secretary of the Y. M. C. A.,
was received into full membership
upon the reading of his letter from his
home church in Massachusetts. The
church letter to the associational con-
vention, which meets in Ottumwa next
week, was read by Miss Edith Gum,
church clerk, and adopted. Delegates
were selected to represent the church
at the meeting of laymen at the asso-
citation meeting in Ottumwa a week
from next Thursday evening, when
Prof. Chas. H. Young, of this city.
will deliver an address upon "The Lay

who will represent the church at the
convention, who were chosen some

usually law-breaking is not to be en-
coliraged. Carrie Nation said some
things eminently brave and wise and
also other things which We're positive
ly unjust The speaker here referred
to her characterization of the minis
tiers of Oskaloosa as 'cowarus," and
said that she did not know whereof
she spoke. Not only this, but DR..
Allen said he was more than astonish-
ed that this attack on the preachers
of OskalDosa was received by the audi
ence with hearty applause. Can it
be possible that the church going peo-
pie of Oskaloosa really believe this?
Dr. Allen referred to the recent meet
ing at the opera house when the
preachers spoke out so openly and
plainly. Have the people so quickly
forgotten that? The ministers of Os.
kaloosa have put in some hard work
in behalf of law enforcement in this
city and are ready to do more. If the
very people who SO warmly and en-
Enthusiastically applauded Carrie Ma
tons attack on the local pastors,
would only follow the ministers in
their good work, the saloon question
in Oskaloosa would soon be settled.
The preachers of Oskaloosa are not
towards" and at all times they
stand ready to do their full duty, but
they must have the cooperation and
support of their people in their work
The comments of DR.. Allen on the
New Religion of DR.. Elliott was
discussion of doctrinal character, but
was presented in such way as to be
of vital interest and profit to his audi
encc.
