SAD DEATH

One of the saddest deaths it has
been our duty to record is that OF
Mrs. Elsie Florence Kelley, who
passed away at $50 a. IN. Friday at
her home nine miles north OF Mans
field. She was 20 years, 6 months
and % days old and leaves a hus-
band and twin boys, born the pre-
vious Sunday, to mourn her loss.
Her husband, Frank Kelley and her
parents, Henry Zook and wife, OF
Breckenridge, Okla, who had been
called here, accompanied the re.
mains to Breckenridge for interment
taking with them the twin boys,
who will never realize a mothers
love and thoughtful care. The ba'
bies, who ace apparently strong and
healthy, will be cared for by thei1
grandmother-but no love on eartf
can take the place of the love in the
heart of the mother for her bah!

QUITS HORSESHOEING BUSINESS.
Geo. Schamel Retires From the Bust
ness to Enter New Venture.

Geo. Schamel, one of Decorah's
well known horseshoers, has quit
the business. Geo. has been a resi-
dent of DEBORAH for the past fifteen
years and being an expert horseshoer
always enjoyed a good business, but
during the past year or so, the au-
tomobile has supplanted the horse
in so many places throughout the city
and county, that the horseshoeing
business has dwindled. Consequent
ly George decided to quit, so last
week he went to Minneapolis and
purchased a new outfit for billiard
and pool hall, two pool and one
billiard table, and yesterday work
men began remodeling his black
smith shop. He will put in a new
floor, walls and ceiling and fix the
place up in fine style for an up-to-
date lunch and billiard room. He
expects to have his new place open
ed by fair week.
Since the above was written Mr..
Schamel purchased the Ed Power S
pool and lunch room this morning, in
the Central Block and will conduct
it until his new place opens.

that country in an automobile. Mr..

90 acres of land, and will be thrown

Sept. l, and continue until Sept.
goth. 1t is estimated that between
$4,000 and $4,000 people will file
and there are only S,406 quarter Sec
tons available, so of course there
will be good many disappointed
filers. Mr.. Weiser took in all the
new country, and also visited Plen-
tywood, Mont, which he thinks is
one of the best known sections of
that country. Several Winneshiek-
ers are located there. He was &C

AUTOMOBILE BURNS.
n. l.. Bailey's Touring Car Goes up
in Smoke on Burr Oak Road.

Saturday evening, about 1880
Landlord n. L. Bailey of the Winnie
shiek Hotel, Mr.. Basset, Mrs.
Bailey and Mrs. F. P. Adams started
out for an automobile ride, in Mr..
Bailey's touring car. They started
towards Burr Oak and when near
the Brickner farm about three miles
out, Mrs. Adams noticed bright
light shining from underneath the
car and 1T was then discovered the
car was afire. Mr.. Bailey stopped
Immediately and all occupants of the
car were greatly frightened, and it
was with considerable effort that
they escaped from the car, Mrs
Adams in jumping, going into the
ditch and received quite a tumble,
but fortunately wasn't injured. OF
course excitement reigned for some
time, great crowd gathered, and
the auto burned for about two hours
the top seats and sides being entirely
consumed. The tires were not touch
ed by the fire, being protected by the
tenders; the running gear, engine and
wheels are all that is left of the car
which is now at Peter Johnson and
Sons garage. We understand Mr.
BAILEY carried insurance on the car.

Some Red Hot Weather.

it registered 81, Friday 101, Satdr-
day, 100, Sunday 81, Monday 50
and Tuesday so. A light rain Sun
day night cooled the atmosphere to
some extent, and a light drizzle is
falling this morning, which all helps
some. And another thing that help
ed out the tired shoppers and others
was the bubbling fountain presented
to the city by Ben Bear. There is
a constant stream of thirsty ones
lined up to it nearly every minute OF

Rev. Father Mullen Leaves.

Rev. Father Mullen who has been
assistant pastor of st. Benedicts
Catholic church in this city for the
past five and half years departed
yesterday for Dubuque, where he
will asst at ST. Patricks church for
while, and later will be assigned
to mission of his own. 1t is with
deep regret that the Pensioners of
st. Benedicts church see Father Null
len leave DEBORAH, for he has endear-
ed himself to them all, and the
friends he has made here are legion
both inside the church and out. AS
a token of the esteem in which he
was held, he was presented on Mon
day afternoon with a fine purse of
money, and many were the regrets
at his departure. Father Mullen
leaves DEBORAH with the best wish
es of everybody and it is the sincere
wish of all that in his new home and
mission he will enjoy good health
and happiness.

Home From Market.

Ben Bear arrived home Friday
night from his fall purchasing trip
to New York City. Mrs. Bear and
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Bear accom-
panied him from Chicago, where they
had been visiting. They drove their
car from Chicago.
Mr.. Bear is very enthusiastic about
his big purchases this year, and
states that he bought the finest
lot of suits and furnishings
that ever adorned the shelves of re-
tail store in this part of the country,
and judging from some OF the goods
that we have seen opened up in his
store, we guess he has reason to feel
enthusiastic. The big boxes are roll
ling in every day and soon all the
shelves will be grooming with their
fall and winter burden.

Some Corn.

Last Thursday Jimmie Hislop was
out in the country viewing Winnie
shiek's waving corn fields, and he
just couldn't help bringing home a
stalk to show his friends what kind
OF real corn grows in this virgin soil,
SO he cut down a little stalk that
only measured IA feet and inches
and carted it in. 1t made Jim 60
some, but nevertheless he landed ii
in town, and it was well worth seeing.
If all the fields are like this sample,
and we guess they are, there will be
a demand for step ladders and flying
machines among the huskers this
fall.

hospital proposition is working right
along and things are being put in
shape, so that when the bids are
opened work can be commenced i'm

way. Those who have not paid
