So, 900 BLAZE AT OSKALOOSA.
Fine Pipe Organ in Church Burns
Cause of Fire Unknown.

Oskaloosa. Iowa April Fire dis
covered at an early hour this morn
ing in large storehouse, occupied by
the H. L. Spencer wholesale grocery
company, swept part of one block in
Oskaloosa, destroying the Congrega-
tional church and its entire contents,
including fine pipe organ.
The building in which the fire
started was filled with goods valued
at several thousand dollars, and will
be almost total loss. The H. l..
Spencer company had removed TO it's
new store building only two months
ago, leaving much stock in the store
house, which also contained a quaint
ity of valuable bank fixtures.
At eight O'Clock the fire was under
control and estimates place the total
loss at about SIS, 1000, almost COM
pletely covered by insurance
While the cause of the fire is I'M
known, it is believed to have been of
incendiary origin.

DEATH; ENTRAPs WIFE
Husband Takes Doctor Into His Conf
dence and Death Scene is
Staged.

Berlin, Iowa, April IA grocer of
Darmstadt became suspicious of his
wife and determined 10 put her TO a
test He took into his confidence the
family doctor, who was a great friend
of his.
The grocer professed one day to be
very i'll. The doctor being summon
ed, declared him to be in great dang
er and said that the minister must
be sent for. Holy communion was
administered and towards the early
hours OF the morning the doctor said
that life had fed.
Before his death, however, said the
doctor, his patient had bequeathed
his body for the benefit of science.
The doctor accordingly left the house
to make arrangements for the body
to be conveyed to his laboratory.
Scarcely had the doctor gone when
the wife went to the telephone and
rung up a certain army lieutenant
whom her husband had suspected of
being her lover The lieutenant ar
rived shortly afterward and in the
room communicating with the bed
room in which the apparently dead
body of her husband lay, she receiv-
ed the lieutenant, and told him how
glad she was that her husband was
dead and of her readiness to marry
the lieutenant
A few days later the woman was
informed by the doctor that her hus-
band was not really dead, but had
only fallen into trance and had now
awakened
This unpleasant surprise was fol-
lowed by the notice of divorce pro-
ceedings instituted by her husband.
In court the husband repeated what
he had heard when he was supposed
to be corpse.

UNDER MULCT PLAN.
Mason City Picture Show ProprietOrs
Pay Fines for Running on
Sundays.

Mason City, Iowa, April T. Mason
City is now running the moving pict-
ure business on Sunday on the mulct
plan, at least that is what it is prov
ing to be. Heffner, the proprietor of
the BijOu, opens each Sunday. is ar
rested on Monday morning by the
sheriff and is taken before a magi-
strate and fined ST. 81 and costs. This
last Sunday both the proprietor and
the machine operator were pulled and
fined each $3.50 and costs, running
up to something like S13. Last Sun
day he had a $50 house and he is of
the opinion that he can afford this
fine as long as business keeps up.
The proprietor of the Orpheum has
announced that he would probably
open next Sunday and in order to not
put the officers to too much trouble is
willing to pay the mulct tax in adj
vance. The proprietors of the NOV
les are claiming that they run perfect
ly religious and healthy pictures and
their places of business are not so
demoralizing as smoke shops. The
movies were started when one of the
religious denominations of this city
put on what they termed a pleasant
sunday afternoon show at the Orph-
cum.

Figuring on a Gas Plant.

The Cresco Light, Heat and Power
Co. has been looking over the local
field with a view to installing a gas
plant to be run in connection with the
electric light plant, the plan being to
use the buildings and some of the
equipment of the present steam plant
thereby lessening the cost of install
lation. Gas would be produced from
coal oil and used for light, heat and
cooking purposes. Ordinarily towns
the size of Cresco are not big enough
TO support a gas plant, but it is be-
lieved by using some of the equip
ment already on hand and which will
be out of use when connection is
made with the power dam, that the
can be put on a paying ba-
sis.
A number of citizens have agreed
to use gas if the plant is put in and
it is likely this will be one of the i'm
provements that will be made the
summer.-Cresco Times.

stration with trimmings of fruit and
vegetables marked the close of a vau-
deville engagement by the sisters at
a local theater last week. When the
women had about finished their act,

missiles and left the stage in the the
alter in search of a policeman TO ar
rest the audience, but did not return.

pearance on the stage of rough

CHOIR WILL VISIT OsSIAN.
St Joseph's Vested College Choir to
Appear There April 22nd.

The vested choir at st. Joseph's
college, Dubuque, numbering fifty,
will give a sacred concert in st. Fran
els de Sales Catholic church April
22nd. That the choir is the finest in
the west there is no doubt The fol-
lowing from the Cedar Rapids Ga
zette will be of interest to every mem
Der of St Francis parish:
An audience that completely filled
St. Patrick's church last evening list
ened to a concert of choral music that
proved a treat beyond expectation.
The vested choir of st. Joseph's col
tionally we'll arranged program, con-
sisting of Gregorian, Medieval and
Modern Liturgical music.
Father Alph. Dress, director and
organist of the choir, controlled the
singers with such ease and quietness
that the various changes of express
sion and rythme were produced as if
by one huge organ rather than by a
company of forty-four boys.
They sang entirely unaccompanied
and the voices blended and harmonic
ed beautifully, not a single voice be-
ing prominent, a feature so often al
lowed to mar chorus singing. Their
attacks were true and strong and the
phrasing and coloring so even and
smooth not a tremor or sound detract-
ed from the dignified and impressive
Interpretation of the grandest of mu-
sic.
The 'Improperium" and "Benedic-
tus" were works of the director of
the vested choir of st. Joseph's col
lege. Rev. Alph Dress, and proved
doubly interesting on that account
and were much enjoyed.-Ossian Bee.
