Farewell Proved a Complete Surprise

A few of the members of the Evange-
lical church originated and successfully
carried out a pleasant surprise on Rev.
}. c. Schwab and family last Thursday
evening.
While the reverend gentleman and
his family were being entertained at
supper It the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Kopp, some fifty to sixty members of
his congregation gathered at the par
sonage by a pre-arranged plan and took
complete charge. Later word was sent
to the invaders of the parsonage that
Mr. Schwab and his family were on
their way home. The window shades
were at once drawn down and every
one within kept silent. 1t is useless to
they entered their home.
Refreshments were served during the
evening and good social time enjoyed.
As an appreciation the good work done
by Mrs. Schwab in the Sunday school
and Junior and in fact every depart
ment of the church work, she was pre-
sented beautiful cut glass dish, the
presentation being made by Mrs. Geo.
Hoover. The Sunday school superin-
tendent, John Butterton, made a few
brief remarks reviewing the work done
by the pastor and his family during
their two years stay, making special
mention of the work Miss Freda had
done in furnishing music and getting
the young people into the Sunday school.
Rev. Schwab responded in an able man.
ner, urging the members to be faithful
and stand by their new pastor. Brief
remarks were made by several others
expressing regrets that the pleasant re-
lations between the pastor and the con-
gregation must terminate so soon.
When all departed they gave assurance
that their prayers and best wishes
would follow them to their new field of
labor at Ackley, Iowa.

Boyer for sheriff; II. w. Wilson, for
clerk; III =. Andrews for county attor-

age reader, but Dr. Woods in his re-
marks says Water Good" We will
take his word for the rest, and trust to
providence for an abundant supply of it

Opening Game Of the Season

The Juniors gave the All-School team
their annual defeat in the Inter-class
baseball meet last Thursday evening.

ers the All School team used Mr.. Johan

Colt Kills Itself

DR.. Elery has been having all kinds
of tough luck the past two months. He
was the owner of two we'll bred young
colts. Some time ago one of them took
sick. and in spite of all that he could do,
the colt died. This week he started to
break his other colt to driving. and
seemed to succeed quite we'll. Tuesday
afternoon he had the colt hitched to a
breaking cart when the animal took q
notion he wanted TO go as he pleased,
but was restrained from doing so. The
result was, that he jumped up into the
air and when he landed he fell with
great force striking his head on the
ground. Chances are his neck was
broken. for he didn't get up any more
and before anything could be done, the
colt was dead. DIR. Elery takes his mis-
fortune like man but greatly regrets
his loss.

A Most Beautiful Easter Service

One of the most beautiful and i'm
pressive Easter services ever held in
Audubon took place at St. Patrick's
Catholic church in this city last Sunday.
The edifice. profusely decorated with cut
flowers, bore every evidence of the
Easter season. A large congregation at
tended the High Mass which was cele,
brated by the pastor, Father Mcdonald.
A Missionary Father from the Creighton
University of Nebraska preached the
sermon His Illustrations were timely
and good, and certainly no one who
heard him could help but have better
and more thorough understanding of
the true meaning of Easter Sunday.
Father Mcdonald is to becomplimented
for bringing to his congregation such
noted man as the Missionary Father
The sermon was followed by Benediction
of the Most Blessed Sacrament, which
is another very beautiful service of the
Catholic church.

church in this city on the evening of
April 2lst by the pupils of Prof. d. f.
Clifford Prof Clifford has given Audu-
bon what she has long desired. The
town has excellent talent but it was un-
cultured. He has been in our midst
about three years and what he has &C
complished in that short time is mar
yelous. His pupils are very enthusiastic.
They are eager to learn and our readers
who have heard the orchestra play in
public are more than delighted with the
result The price of admission is only
ten cents, and is only intended to cover
the cost of expense that necessarily
follows. A complete program will be
found in another column of this issue.

The Federal League was discussed for pos sibly half an hour while theowners were in session, and they went on rec ord as declaring themselves adverse to the recognition of third league.
