W. c. T. U. MEETING

The Women s Christian Temperance union held a well attended meeting at the Baptist church yesterday afternoon The officers and members of the union discussed the action recently taken by the chamber of commerce in regard to the Hamiton-O Owens bill, providing for the prohibition of the sale of liquor within radius of twenty-five miles of any Indian reservation. A protest was issued against the action of the cham Der of commerce, the members of the union claiming that said action did not voice the sentiments of the community.

 Other important business matters were also discussed and final arrange ,ments were made for the observance of National Tag Day on Saturday, March 19 The tags will be sold everywhere by members of the committees and vol unteers, the proceeds to be devoted to the temperance cause.

This day will be ob served by at least 12,000 unions throughout the country.
 Before the close of the meeting an able address was delivered by MT. Blaine, of California, who is here in the interests of the Good Templars.

IN MEMORIAM OF
 MRS. J. G. OLDFIELD

Not lost to you, only gone before, To a home where you can meet, When your earthly life is OCT, Her loving hands outstretched to
 greet, As you reach the golden shore. Think not of the loved form, You laid beneath the sod, But of her spirit bright, That dwells above with God Gone from darkness into light. Her loving presence, oft you II feel, As her gentle spirit fingers near
 you. In the lonely hour, and when slumber
 Ter you steals, She loving watch will keep, Until you too, at last must sleep. You will miss the fond, and loving
 mother,
 The true and faithful wife; You will never find another So unselfsh in their loving care But her love is just the same over
 there. In house not made with hands She lovely home is making, For her loved ones, toiling O Ter life s
 sands,
 Waiting for the dawn that $ breaking And the sunlight of the Better Land. And when down the dark valley you go, That leads into darkness and night With your life lamp burned low, Out of the darkness she Fl lead you And open the portals of light.

Buying Cattle in North Dakota.

John Mullaney returned Sunday
evening from very successful bust
ness trip to Griffen, n. d., where
he bought thirteen cars of cattle,
twelve of which he shipped to the
Chicago markets. The other car he
had shipped to DEBORAH. 1t con-
sisted of IS cows and IS calves, all
high grade Herefords. He turned
them out on his farm near Trout
Run, and those who have seen the
cattle state that they are some of
tie finest animals ever seen in Win
neshiek county He will fatten the
calves and turn them into baby beef.
We dare say they will make de-
licious eating. The cows will be
kept and used for breeding pur-
poses.
Mr.. Mullaney expects to return to
Dakota in a week or so to purchase
more cattle.

FATS PLAY BILL.
About Two Ton and Half of Beef
and Drawn Line up Against
Local Aggregation.

Yesterday was a big day in De-
corah for we had the Fat Men S
base ball team with us-everyone
of them a regular baby elephant,
headed by the famous Baby" Bliss,
who only tips the scales at GAO
pounds. The aggregation would
surely bring Teddy's mind back to
the elephant jungles of Africa.
But with all their weight and
size they are jolly set of good fell
lows. Fourteen men travel with
the team, their combined weight
being 4,S47 pounds The heaviest
man weighs $40 and the lightest
man, or mascot and pinch hitter,
lao. Baby" Bliss was for years
demonstration for the Columbia BIZ
cycle people, and weighed at that
time 525 pounds and rode 10
pound bicycle. He demonstrated
them all over the United States and
Europe.
The ball game took place at the
fair grounds in the afternoon, and
was attended by good sized crowd,
considering the fact that the game
was only announced Saturday. A
picked up team was pitted against
the Fats. DEBORAH winning by a
score of to 9. 1t was an amusing
game to witness; the Fats could hit
the ball some all right-but no
home-runs were recorded. Follow
ing is the lineup and weights and

day they played at Clermont win
ming by a score of to z. They
went from here to New Hampton.
Joe Shema was the official UNI
pire, and not one of the fat men S
players, as some suspected. Of
course Joe is some heavyweight him
self and his decisions seemed to
favor the Fats-but that idea. was
dispehed when the 14O pound pinch
hitter for the Fats objected strenu-
ously at having three high ones
called strikes on him and he walk
ed out to Mr.. Umpire and threaten
ed to take fall out of him. 1t was
the closest shave Joe has had for
long time. He was saved through
the efforts of Baby" Bliss and an
other 800 FOUNDER, who went out
and marched the midget back to the
plate.

A COnsOling Letter.

Mr.. Owen Rooney received the fol-
lowing consoling letter to himself
and family, and friends of their son,
Peter j. Rooney, who was killed at
Great Falls, Montana last week.
The letter is from the Sisters in
charge of the hospital where he was
taken after the accident, and we
take the liberty to publish the letter
in full:
COLUMBUS HOSPITAL,
Great Falls, Mont, Aug. 26, 10.
Mr.. Owen Rooney,
DEBORAH, Iowa.
Dear Sir
No doubt the news of your sons
death has reached you ere this, also
particulars of same. However. let
me add to it a very consoling feat
ure. Mr.. p. j. Rooney was brought
to our hospital shortly after he met
with the accident, at about 500 p.
m. We at once called for the
priest, who heard his confession,
gave him the Holy Victicum (Holy
Communion) and administered Ex-
IRENE Unction to him. During all
this time your son was perfectly
conscious and he prayed very ferv-
emily. At about 1000 p. m. the
priest went to see him again and
remained with him till after mid
night. One of the Sisters was with
him almost all night until he died
at about $50 a. m. He was con-
scious to the very last, and suffered
a great deal, but the shock prevent
ed him from feeling the pain as
much as he would otherwise have
felt it, His was an untimely death,
apparently, but the Almighty God,
Who knows best the good time to
call His friends to Himself, called
for this faithful servant when He
found him best prepared. Be con-
soled then, to know that he receiv-
ed all the last rites our holy church.
With sincere sympathy to you and
family, l am
Respectfully yours,
SISTER GASPARD, Supt.
