1t has been called to our at
tention that vandals are taking
everything loose at the ceme-
terry. This is a very serious of
fense and if the guilty parties
are caught it will go very hard
with them. When a person be-
comes so degenerate they will
not respect the silent city of
the dead it is time they were
put where the rules and regula-
tions are such that disobedience
is impossible. Planting flowers
and trees in a cemetery is the
only act the living can do for
departed loved ones and a per-
son so low as to deliberately
destroy these flowers or shrubs
deserves no consideration at
the hands of the living. The
officials are doing their best to
catch the vandals and if they
are successful an example will
be made of them so that no one
else will care to try it over
again.

Killed by the Train.

A young man about 25 years
of age was killed by the fast
mail yesterday afternoon, on
the bridge over the Boyer ditch
south of town.
The Coroner's inquest, held
this afternoon, failed to find out
his name or any of the circum-
stances surrounding his death;
his home is supposed to be in
New York. His travelling COM
panion could throw no light on
his death. The last they saw
of him, he was on the edge Of
the bridge, and whether he de-
liberately committed suicide or
vas accidently hit, will never
be known. His head was crush
ed, and the b,ay quite badly
mangled. A m q who was with
him, said they had been togeth-
er for several weeks, but he on
ly knew the deceased by his
his nick name, and thinks his
home was in New York. but it
was a rule of the road never to
ask a comrade to give his real
name.
His body will be buried in the
Potters Field in Rose Hill Gem
etery.
How solemn the thought. A
mothers boy meets death in a
strange land among strangers,
and is laid to rest in the Pot
ter's field there to sleep until
the Great Day, and his friends
may never know where his dust
mingles with the sleeping dead.
Let us shed a silent tear to the
stranger dead.

New Chauffeur

New Inauffeur
We were informed today
that two real estate men, both
own automobiles, a Stoddard
Dayton and Cadillac, hired a
chauffeur the other day. We
do not intend to divulge the
names of these men as they
are good men. One of them
has not owned his Cadillac very
long and the other fellow with
the big red Stoddard Dayton
should have had more sense
than to hire a stranger. The
story was told to us in the fol-
lowing manner; a colored gent
leman called at their real
estate office one day last week
and after putting up a good
hard-luck story, one of the
men took pity on the fellow
and gave him a j1bt cleaning
his car. When the job was
completed, he was put to work
on the Cadillac, after which he
was told to take the car and
take man south of town.
Everything went lovely until
the car was being run into the
garage when the stranger
steered into the side Of the
garage, tearing off one of the
tenders. The mean part of
this story is that the man that
hired him is roasting the man
that owns the Cadillac.

Union Meeting

The Union meeting Sunday
evening, at the M. E. church,
was largely attended, and was
addressed by Rev. S. X. Cross,
of the Presbyterian church,
who delivered a very interest
ing discourse on Christian Eel
lowship and brotherly love.
His remarks were earnest and
instructive, and if practiced as
preached, would make the
world better and happier.
The next service will close
the Union services for this
summer, but we trust, those
had, will be the mears of con-
tinuing such meetings in the
future.

1t Is Past.

1t Is Past.
We have passed the Goth mile
post in the journey of life, and
it is with great pleasure that
we acknowledge our heart felt
thanks to our many friends who
honored us by calling upon us
to offer congratulations on our
successful journey on the way.
Such tokens of friendship, af-
er a personal acquaintance
With us, in many cases, of over
fifty years, and to be assured by
hem of their high esteem and
respect for us, is highly appre-
:iated, and its influence falls
'lpon our mind as the gentle
dew falls upon the petals of the
rose, sending it's sweet oder to
cheer US on our way. To have
the conf lence of good people
is an honor, but to be able to re-
tain such friendship for fifty
years, and in some cases, even
longer, is worthy the greatest
effort of man. Language is too
poor to properly express our
thanks to our manv friends and
neighbors who called upon us
Friday, to offer their congratu-
lations on our successful wealth
ering the storms of life for 80.
years, and wishing US mary
more years in the land of the
living.
To say we spent a happy day
and evening with our friends,
does not fully express tive
were rejoiced to meet 50 many
dear friends, yet we missed
some whom we should have been
glad to have taken by the hand,
but of course we could not ex-
pect to meet all. Some very
dear ones were not permitted
to represent distance preven-
ting, others kept away by busi-
ness, but to the many who called
and to all who sent messages by
card or otherwise, we tender
our most profound thanks, and
wish for all long life and hap
piness.
And now, feeling that it will
be impossible to return the calls
paid us on our Goth birthday on
all of their Goth birthdays, we
assure the hundreds who hon
ored us yesterday by their call,
that our prayer to God is, that
if we never meet in this world,
that we will all meet in that
land where parting will never
come, and until that day let us
wait and hope.

From Oil House to Farm

published in the interests of
the company and its employees:
John Bridgeman, oil house
man at Missouri Valley, Iowa,
who has been in the employ Of
the Chicago and North West
ern at that point for over thirty
five years has been pensioned
by the company in recognition
of his faithful services. He
has been actively engaged in
the storehouse and oi! house at
Missouri Valley during this
time. He was born in Indiana
in l84l. Although he will now
cease active duties at the store
house, Mr.. Bridgeman will be
missed by every employe who
came here after oil and supplies.
He is hale and hearty, and has
taken up his new work of rust
icating for a few months on
the farm. When last seen he
was driving four horses, plant
ing corn, and was as spry as a
boy. The entire force extends
best wishes for many years of
happiness and content.

We thought at first of reply
ing to all letters, kilograms and
cards conveying congratula-
tions to us on our 90th birthday,
but soon dismissed the idea, as
such a work would have requi-
red too much time and labor, so
we concluded to make a gener-
al acknowledgement Of all such
kind messages, through the col
umns of the TIMES, hoping this
method will be satisfactory to
friends; so to one and all, we
say: thanks, ten thousand heart
felt thanks, for the kind re-
memberanc and expressions, of
regard for us on our reaching

ney of life. d. M. Harris.
