Presidency.

Persistency is the greatest power in
the world. All the performances of
human art, at which we look with
praise or wonder, are instances of the
resistless force of perseverance. 1t is
by this that the quarry becomes the
towering monument, the drop of
water and the grain of sand makes
the mighty ocean and the wondrous
land. - it is, therefore, of the utmost
importance that those who have any
intention of deviating from the beaten
roads of life, and acquiring repu-
tation superior to names hourly swept
away by time among the refuse of
fame. should add to their reason the
power of persisting in their purpose,
acquire the art of sapping what they
can not batter, and the habit Of van
gushing obstinate resistance by OBJ
stinate attacks.

STABBING ARRAY
NOT VERY SERIOUS
Victim Of Kimble Park Affair Will Live
Scott, His Assailant, Now
in Jail Here.

The Kimbal's park stabbing affray
told Of in last weeks Herald will
perhaps not result fatally. The victim
Vincent Rub, % years old, Is now said
TO be past the danger point.
Undersheriff Jay Harcleroad was un-
able to bring the trio, Henry Scott,
Lawrence Barry and Frank De Lacey.
to Lancaster last Wednesday as he had
intended. He as we'll as the Dubuque
authorities who had them in charge
thought they would come to Grant
county without necessitating the max
ing out Of requsition papers. The men
seemed to be wiling until the eleventh
hour when they refused to accompany
the undersheriff It is thought that,
some other inmate of the Jail informed
them at that time, that they did not
have to go to Wisconsin unless requsi-
tIon papers were served. The three
women who engaged the livery rig
with Rub as driver, we're supboenaed
as witnesses and brought to Lancaster
that day however. Their testimony
which was taken as soon as possible
fixed the deed upon Henry Scott.
On Saturday the undersheriff made
trips to Madison, Wisconsin, and Des
Moines, Iowa, to obtain the necessary
papers.
Scott was arraigned before Justice
Thanhousar yesterday. Upon motion
Of Dist. Atty. Clementson the preli-
minary hearing was postponed until
Dec 2, at p. m. Bail was placed at
81, 500 which Scott could not procure.
He is now in the county Jail.

Greatest Of all Stock Shows Fulfilling
Its Mission.

With the entry list out, the hopes
of the directors, officers and everyone
else who is interested in the Interna-
tional Live Stock Exposition, sanguine
as they were, have been more than
realized for the list contains such an
array Of names of the foremost and
most influential breeders, feeders. and
farmers in the country, and such
number of entries from each, and that
the Show this year will not only
totally eclipse all it's predecessors,
but will be recorded in this and other
countries as the greatest live stock
exposition that has ever been held
anywhere since live stock shows were
first organized.
This splendid condition Of affairs is
positive proof of how exhibitions of
this kind are regarded by stockmen,
what necessity they find them to be
and what tremendous assets they are
to the industry they represent and the
stock they produce,
For any breed of cattle, sheep. swine
and horses to be even mentioned as
prize winners at this Show, stamps
their breeders as men who know their
business, and marks them as breeders
whose stock will realize higher prices
than those of others, and not only is
this the case in regard to the breeders
of the actual winners, but it means
tremendous lot to all others, whose
stock, though not fortunate enough to
be among the prize takers, is deemed
worthy Of competing against such
animals, and only requires little
more perseverance until they them
selves are counted among the winning
owners.
The International Live Stock Elk
position this year will be revela
ton, not only to those who have at
tended and5showp stock at it since its
initial presentation eleven years ago,
but also, and liz much higher Degree
to those who attend for the first time.
Every stock man who is really interest
ed in the live stock industry, and who
is able to do So should attend this
show, even at the risk of being money
out of pocket through the cost of the
tourney and expenses connected there
with, this small pecuniary loss, if
oss it can be called, will be returned
him fourfold through the knowledge
will attain, and it will be returned
him in such a way as he will never
able lose it, come what may it is

carries giltedged security with it. To
pat it in the words of the preacher,
ito refuse this offering is a casting
away Of the richest gift that could be
offered to a stockman" it is a refusal Of
the proffered hand Of helpfulness, it is
a turning away from the door the
man who has come to impart good
tidings instead Of to beg. and Of vast
ing the hours that might be turned
into inestimable advantage. Do not
forget the dates, November goth to

CHANGE IN PASTORS
At CATHOLIC CHURCH
Rev. Geo. c. SchIeicher is Leav-
ing St. Clements.
Left for New Home at Mansion, Wis.
Yesterday-Rev F. A. Wambold,
of Mansion, Comes Here.

Rev. Geo. G. Schleicher, who has
been pastor of ST. Clements Catholic
church in this city announced to his
congregation last Sunday that he was
about to discontinue his pastorate
here and babe them all farewell.
Father Schleicher has been pastor
of st. Clement for nearly seven years
past and during that time has made
a wide circle Of friends, both in and
aside from his congregation, who will
regret to see him leave Lancaster, but
whose good wishes will accompany
him to his new field Of labors. Be
goes from here to Mansion, county
seat of juneau county, where he has
a somewhat larger parish and school
with about $50 pupils.
Rev. T. A. Wambuld who has been
pastor of the Mansion church, comes
hele to succeed Mr.. Schleicher and is
expected to arrive tomorrow, so that
it is simply an exchange Of places by
the two pastors. Father Wambold is
very highly thought of at Mansion,
where he has been in charge for a
number Of years. and will no doubt
be equally we'll received here.
Father Schleicher has given to The
herald the following words of fare
well, for publication

portunity to extend my heartfelt

UNPRECEDENTED
OPPORTUNITY
Three Great Shows at One Time in
Chicago.

One of the most valuable features
of the International Live Stock Ex-
position at Chicago this year, and
which takes place, on the dates of
November Goth to December 3rd in
elusive, is that it occurs at the same
time at which the "Land Show and
Apple Show" are held. These great
exhibitions, presented at the great
city of Chicago, that wonderful
metropolis Of the West, and the food
depot of the world, offers an unpre-
cedented opportunity to everyone who
is interested in farming, breeding,
development of land. and the apple
growing industry, such as has never
occurred before, to pay a visit to
Chicago at this time. Apart from
the pleasures of the trip, they will be
able to kill three birds with one
stone to taking away with them a fund
of practical knowledge that will be
of incalcuable value in after years.

True Praise and Elattery.

The unctuous hypocrite is in such
contrast with the man of honor as is
the 'slanderer and scandal monger.
The fair and open face of honest
praise, the caress Of true affection in
speech, the thrilling verdict of solid
fame and real glory, are as far away
from flattery as the stars are from
mud puddles.

planted at the expense of the giver.
