Bird IN a New Nest.

1t win be OF interest to his many
friends here to learn that the REV.
James E. Bird, former pastor of the
First Methodist Episcopal church of
this city, is nicely ensconced in a
new nest and that work of his de-
nomination in which he is now en-
gagged at Charleston is progressing
in highly praiseworthy manner.
This may be CLEANED from the fol-
lowing editorial paragraph in the
Charleston Gazette, which desig-
mates the Work mentioned therein
as worthy:
The new parsonage of the First
Methodist Episcopal church was
erected through efforts of the La
dies Aid Society OF that congrega-
ton. The parsonage was opened
yesterday afternoon when DR.. ]. E.
Bird. the pastor, and family took
possession of their new home
The building cost approximately
$4,000, and the furnishings cost
large sum. Both are gifts Of the
Ladies' Aid Society, and represent a
vast amount of work as well as con-
siderable business ability on the
part - of the ladies who undertook
the work, and who have completed
It y. 50 satisfactory a manner.

does to those who travel.
Notwithstanding the progress that
has been made in the comfort of

it is essential that every operative

ish naval attaches who accompanied
Admiral Tpgo's feet in the first ma
val battles in the Gulf of Pechilt
against the Pacific fleet of Russia,
caused a revolution in battleship
construction.
This once proud vessel is now
considered so far out of date that
It is being removed from the first

naught has been in commission less
than six years, and while not consid-
cred obsolete is more completely

were the pre-Dreadnoughts dis
tanced by it when it was first
built.
Three weeks ago the battleship,
King George v, was commissioned.
1t has a .broadside of no less than
$4,000 pounds. This gives it a su-
periority of los per cent over the
Dreadnought, which was cinly twen-
ty-eight per cent better than the
last pre-Dreadnoughts. The new
armored cruisers even are fifty per
cent more powerful than the Dread
nought. No British armored ship is
reckoned effective today that has
been launched over eighteen years.
At the battle of Trafalgar the
twenty-seven British ships averaged
twenty-seven years from the date Of
Launching. The Victory itself was
fifty years old.

Northeastern railway caused by the
action of the company in reducing
an engineer after he had been con-
victed of drunkenness, and which
lasted less than a week. cost the
northern shipping trades over So

The trouble came at a time when
there was an extraordinary rush OF
trade before the holidays, which
was interrupted by an unusual and
pressing demand for coal by Russia
and other European powers, who
we're putting in stocks against the
possibility of war. 1T was not only
the shipping trades that lost heavily,
however, for the miners and men in
collateral, trades lost nearly weeks
work as the company could not ac-
cept freight. while the railway men
themselves were mulcted' in fines
which will take them some weeks
to pay.
This has left wound and many
of the men, dissatisfied with the
action of their committee in signing
the company's terms, wished gen
eral strike ordered. Better counsels
prevailed, however, the men who had
gone on strike against the advice OF
the unic1 officials, on this occasion
listening to them. There is unrest
among the men on most of the rail-
ways of the country. They complain
that they are prosecuted, that any
man found to be active in trade
unionism is unfairly treated by the
companies, and on the least excuse
is either gotten rid of reduced.
The companies deny this, but the
men believe it and many OF the sec
tional strikes, such as that on the
Northeastern, are caused more by
the general dissatisfaction than by
the special occurrence that takes the
linen out The men On the North
eastern were not greatly concerned

THOUSANDS OF
VOTES TURNED IN
Young Ladies Are Taking Advantage
of the Big Extra Vote Offer
Which Closes Tuesday.
MANY NEW NAMES ARE ADDED

til the CIose-CIosing Date to
Be Announced Next Week

In this issue of the Review appears
the fifth count of votes in the Reviews S
great circulation contest and readers
will notice that candidates have been
doing exceptionally well and their
standing has increased thousands of
votes over the count that was pub
lished in the last issue. The young
ladies in the contest are putting forth
their best efforts at this time in order
to secure as many extra votes as pos
sible before the big offer expires on
next Tuesday evening. They have met
with great success in their efforts thus
far and many of the young ladies will
secure thousands of extra votes before
the big extra vote offer closes. All of
the contestants realize that this is the
opportune time to rush in their sub
scriptions, both old and new, and take
advantage of the exceptional offer that
is being made.
Last week We announced that for
every. five new subscribers turned in
by a contestant during this extra vote
period that they would receive $4,000
extra votes in addition to the regular
vote scheduel Many of the contest
ants have already turned in new sub
scriptions enough to gain many thous-
sand extra votes, and from present in
dications there will be several hun
dred new subscriptions turned in be-
fore Tuesday, November 4th.
Old subscribers of this paper should
not fail to hand their renewals to their
favorite contestant before next Tues
day as every contestant will receive
$4,000 extra votes for every $40 she
turns in dating from October Goth to
November 4th. This offer is on old
and new subscriptions so you can
readily see that this is the opportune
time to assist your favorite contest

The contest will be an exciting race
from now until the finish and the
young ladies will have to work harder
from now until the close than they
have previously, if they expect to be
grand prize winner. Our experience
in previous contests has been that the
winners have been the young ladies
who worked the hardest during the
last few weeks of the contest. There

Delegates Served Excellent Dinner and
in Evening Secret Work OF Order
Was Well Carried Out.

The ninth annual convention OF the
Daughters of Rebekah in the twenty
fourth district, convened in Denison
Yesterday morning, DenisOn lodge No
42O acting as hostess. Elaborate prep
arations had been made for the enter
tainment of the different lodges com
prising the district. The lodge room
proper had been beautifully decorated
in pink and green and the various EN-
blems of the order were artlstlcally
arranged on the walls. Streamers OF
the national colors hung in festoons
from the ceiling and the electric light
globes were beautifully shaded by
them.
1t was to be regretted that the
weather was so inclement as to pre-
vent many from distance attending
the Charter Oak and Manila deles<s
tions being thus deprived of the priv
ilege of attending. Committees met
the several trains coming into the city
and conducted the incoming guests to
the Saggau lodge hall, where every
thing was in readiness for their re-
ception.
A dinner of generous proportions
had been prepared and after greetings
were exchanged the guests were led
to the dining room. And what scere
met their eyes. The tables were beau
tifully arranged and were decorated
beftting the occasion and season, jack
o-lanterns being used as centerpieces
The walls were festooned with hallow
cen colors, owls, black cats, witches
etc., being hung in every conceivable
place. The guests did ample justice
to the dinner placed before them.
At l o'clock the work of the con
vention begun with Miss Agatha

the address of welcome, the response
being made by Mrs. Fred Buss, OF
Dow City. After the reading of the

of the degree and their excellent work
was the admiration of all present.
When this was concluded Mrs. Jensen,
in a few we'll chosen words, presented
the captain of the staff for his work
ers a beautiful bouquet of carnations,
with the compliment of the Denison
lodge, to which the captain responded,
thanking them for the testimony of
their appreciation. The quiz box was
next opened and contents discussed
for the benefit of all present. This
was followed by the report from the
state assembly, which was given by
Mrs. Wore, of Dow City, All greatly

Agatha Drummer. accompanied at the
piano by Miss Alice Drummer. This
closed the work of the convention and
the guests were again banqueted at
II o'clock. This was considered one
of the best conventions held in the
district and the visiting delegates
were loud in their praise of the recep-
tion and entertainment given them
by their sister lodge.
These annual conventions are for
the benefit of every Rebekah in the
jurisdiction and much good is accomp-
lished by them in the promotion of fra
ternal feeling between members and
lodges.

NOVEMBER TERM
DISTRICT COURT
Judge Hutchison, of Lake City, Will
Preside-Thus Far Few Cases
Filed-One from Harrison.
EscHER vs. CARROLL COUNTY
Two or Three Will Gases Will Be Up
for Consideration During Term
Jury Called Early.

The next term of the district court
will convene on the tenth OF November
and Friday will be the last day for til-
ing cases for that term of court. Up
to date no new case of any Importance
has been filed for the next term, but
ordinarily cases are not filed until the
last day for fling which as stated. will
be Friday of this week
Judge Hutchison will be here to
hold the next term and it is expected
that it will be busy term. Contrary
to the usual custom the jury will be
here the first week and will begin
work Immediately on the second day
of the term.
A case of change OF venue from Har.
rison county is especially assigned
for the beginning of the term, and this
case will probably occupy the attention
of the court for two or three days at
least, and 2ossibly longer
Another case which will probably be
tried during the term is that of Esher
vs. Carroll county, which was tried
here number of years ago, on change
of venue, from Carroll county. The
case has been tried twice here in the
district court and on appeal to the su-
preme court has been reversed each
time. This case will occupy a consid
cradle portion of the time.
The case of lngwersen against Drs.
Carr & Brannon is on the docket but
as long as the issues are not made up
it is question whether the case will
be tried this time.
The case of Turner against Bennett,
an automobile case which was tried
here a couple of years ago, will be
back from the supreme court. but it
| is doubtful if there is anything left to
| be tried in the case since the supreme
court dealt with it.. If there is any
thing to try the case will probably be
! disposed of at this term.
There are two or three will contest
cases that will &c up for consideration
during the term. The case of Fiene

Announces Free Delivery.

Willis Virgins, proprietor of the
Sanitary grocery store, announces in
this issue that he will conduct free
delivery, commencing with Friday Of
this week. Mr.. Virgins informs us
that he is doing a nice business with
the non-delivery system, but that many
people who were desirous of patroniz-
ing him were so situated that they
could not go to the store for their gro
ceries and it is for this reason that the
delivery system has been adopted. Mr.
Virgins is to be congratulated on the
neat appearance of his store and he
will doubtless receive his share of the
patronage.

most valuable prizes that have ever
been given away by a newspaper in
western Iowa.
On another page in this issue we are

ladies in order to publish them this
week, but trust that we will be able
to do so in the near future. If one
of these young ladies, whose picture

one of them would appreciate your
