A Great Iowa Trotter.

When the little trotter, Penisa
Maid, appeared in a race on the
fair grounds in DEBORAH a couple of
years ago, it was little expected that
this year she would make one of the
most remarkable seasons records
in the history of the turf. She has
swept the field with victories in the
greatest trotting events of the sea-
son, which included the $4,000
Empire stake at Syracuse, n. Y, a
$4,000 stake at Columbus, and the
great Pennsylvania and Walnut Hall
events at Lexington, Ky. Although
almost an unknown horse, her own
er entered her in over $4,000
worth of purses early in the season,
and her record has been one of the
most remarkable in the history of
the turf, so much so that she has
been constantly in the minds of the
horsemen throughout the country.
Upon her return to Iowa and her
home town, the people turned out
to the number of 1000 to welcome
the mare and her owner home.

Dies Without Warning.

Leaving his home in apparent
usual health at about $50 Tuesday
morning, John H. Serene proceeded
to the river where his boat was
lying. In less than ten minutes he
was a corpse. 1t was the purpose
of his son, Charles, to take Mr.. Ac-
herman over the river to catch a
Burlington train and when he at
tempted to start out it was found
the gasoline engine would not work.
The son fastened to the house and
informed his father of the situation.
Procuring kettle of water Mr..
Serene started for the boat which
was lying in front of the Peers
home. Reaching the railroad track,
he suddenly dropped the kettle and
throwing up his hands, fell to the
ground. His son supported him,
and he was quickly carried to his
home. But life had fled.-Lansing

Henry Klein Passes Away.

Henry Klein for many years a
well known resident of this city and
county, passed away on Thursday
morning at the hospital at indie
pendence, from paresis, from which
he had been suffering for over a
year. He was born in DEBORAH,
Sept. 80, 1878, and spent all Of his
boyhood days here and at Freeport
with the family until August, 1900,
when he went. west to Great Falls,
Montana. where he secured a splen-
did position in the smelter, and
where he remained until March,
1900, when he became overheated
at his work, and from that time his
health broke down and he gradu-
ally failed until the end came. The
remains were brought to DEBORAH
Friday. and the funeral services held
from the Congregational church Sat-
urday morning at $3.50 o'clock, with
interment in Phelps cemetery. He
leaves to mourn his loss mis- mother,
sister Eta and brother Peter, of
Hawkeye; sister, Mrs. ]. E. Lappen
of Leroy, Mimi. and a sister, Miss
Lulu of DEBORAH.
Henry Klein was a young man
who readily made friends. He had
a cheerful, kindly disposition, and
many excellent qualities. He was
musician of recognized ability, and
for many years held a prominent
place among the band and orchestra
circles of the city. His untimely
death Is the cause of general sim
cere regret.

EIks Will Give Minstrels.

Arrangements are being made by
the local lodge of Elks to put on a
first class minstrel show in DEBORAH,
probably between the holidays. 1t
has been a good many years since
DEBORAH has had minstrel show,
and we doubt not that our people
will welcome the opportunity to see
another one. They have engaged
the best company in the business to
come here and organize and take
charge of the performance, and
promise pleasing entertainment.

Little Girl is Burned.

Evelyn, the little daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. M. Carpenter, had very
narrow escape from being burned
to death on Tuesday of last week.
While playing around the room in
which there was a lighted stove, a
piece of lace curtain which the child
was using as veil became ignited.
Had it not been for the mothers
appearance and quick action the re-
suit would probably have proven
fatal. Though she received some
severe burns they will not be of a
serious nature.-Mabel Record.

Is Your Family Reading Worth

So much of current reading is
merely entertaining at best that the
question naturally arises rs it worth
while?" Your sons and daughters
are bound to read something. They
hunger for stories which take them
into the other half of tine world
the world of adventure, of valor. of
fortune-making. The problem is to
give them such reading without put
ting into their hands the literature
that is either silly or demoralizing.

be made entertaining and yet worth

GOES TO McGREGOR.
Henry Reeves, the Well Known Hog
Buyer, Removes Headquarters
to Pocket City.

For some time it has been known
among his friends and business as
sociates that Mr.. Henry Reeves was
contemplating and preparing for the
removal of his headquarters to Nc
Gregor, Iowa, by reason of the bet
ter shipping facilities at that point.
In his position as district manager
for Swift & Co., with agents at
many points in this part of Iowa
and southern Minnesota, he expects
to be able, by concentrating ship
ments at North McGregcr and re-
grading there, to ship higher
grade of hogs than by assembling in
car load lots and shipping direct
as they run. The stock yards at
this point have been enlarged, new
tracks constructed and other special
arrangements made for the handling
of Mr.. Reeves business. Ample Of
fees have been provided by him, and
during the winter Mr.. and Mrs.
Reeves will occupy the ]. N. Gill
christ home.
We do not understand that this
move will affect Mr. Reeves bust
ness here. He will keep competent
buyers in charge at all times to take
care of the local business, and will.
visit DEBORAH at frequent intervals.
The removal will be the occasion
of sincere regret on the part of their
many friends in DEBORAH, who have
known them as friends and neigh
bors for so many years. The loss to
the business circles of DEBORAH in
the departure of Mr.. Reeves Is an
irreparable one. He has been one
Of our most public spirited. most
liberal and most progressive ciu-
zens. During the many years he has
been in business here he has fur
nished a ready market at the top
most price for one of the staple
products of the county and the sum
of money he has paid back into the
homes of the county runs into SUR
prisingly large figures. While his
removal does not alter his business
here in this respect. yet his friend
ship, his business judgment and his
liberality will be generally missed.
Decorahians will universally join in
wishing them continued success and
prosperity in their new nome.
