JUDGE z. I. huuhes.

My friends and brothers of the Lee
County Bar, we are here to comment
crate the life and death Of our brother
who was president Of our associa-
tion-a man whose life for the last
twenty-eight years has been in our
city and our immediate associate
a man we all knew and loved, you all
have his history.
There are many things about him
that reminded one of the great Lin
coin. once saw Lincoln and have
frequently been reminded of him when
in the presence of Judge Trimble-.
the two were really men of few words
but profound thinkers their build and
general appearance were somewhat
alike, as born Of the pioneer days of
the nation builders and they builded
themselves of their own inherit worth
with Judge Trimble for more than
thirty years-in fact | have known the
judge all of my business life-our fam
lilies were Intimate associates and
friends of the judge and nave had
a great many interesting legal ques-
lions to solve especially in corporate
matters, both of us being more < ,ess
engaged in the legal departures of
railroads. can say that in all these
times I have never failed to get from
the judge the clearest and most force
full thoughts of the questions of law
that | have ever received from any
man in the professionals would sit
and listen until / was through and
then say Let me see-now this ques-
ton, think we can dispose Of that
in this way | would certainly con
cede for when he had stated the point
and the solution, it was all over
then the next and so on down until
was thinking there was really moth
ing left and very frequently it was
that way. but when the last question
was reached, there came that quiet,
slow and pointed statement general
1y in monosyllables and with that
clearness and precision that left lit.

those questions had received judicial
sanction, he knew it and where the
books were and if not should he
afterwards have case, his. conclus-
ions of the law We're generally found
embodied in the report of that case
He was man. that when on his feet
addressing court or an audience on
most afts subject, never seemed to
lack for the right word at the right
time and place-He had very little
/ use for rhetoric or f1owery periods
his climax was the bulls eye of his
| theme-he chained his hearers with
his only subject. They hardly heard
his words but followed his thoughts
| to the end. Their minds moved with
his and his conclusions were theirs.
He was man who had history,
philosophy and science-talk to him
on any subject of the present Or past
and you went away thinking of little
/ else than that conversation must
say that as an all around wise and
/ thoughtful man, it is my opinion that

and won for him fame, as truly
great lawyer.
Judge Trimble achieved success not
only at the bar as a lawyer, but on
the bench as Judge. He was fol-
lowed and admired as a great poll
Stician and statesman. He was a val.
liant soldier, veteran of two wars,
and honored as colonel in one of
Iowa's great regiments.
While successful in large financial
affairs, he was democratic in manner,
and companionable with all men. He
was respected, esteemed and loved by
all who knew him, and most by those
who knew him best.
The members of the Keokuk Bar
with a deep sense of personal loss
hereby:
Resolve That we extend to the
mourning and bereaved widow and
family of Judge Henry H. Trimble, our
deepest and most sincere sympathy;
that this memorial as an appreciation
of his life and services, be petitioned
to be spread upon the permanent rec
ords of the District AMI Superior
Courts OF Iowa in and for Lee county,
and the United States Circuit Court
for the southern district of Iowa: and
that the members Of the BAR of Lee
county attend the funeral in a body.

Primitive PHILOSOPHY.

Animism Is the name of theory
originally propounded by Stahl, about
1907. 1t asserts that the soul is the
vital principle and only cause of life
and that the functions of plant and
animal life depend upon this principle
of vitality, and not mere mechanical
and chemical action. AS the word is
now used, it denotes the general doc
trine of spiritual beings. 1t is not
