His Life Yesterday Morning.

A sad and fatal accident happen

sash across the top of the right
side of his skull, although the force
of the blow did not crush the skull
He died almost instantly. Mr.. Low
er was one of the finest young men
in F'rankyille township and his
shocking death causes much sorrow.
He is survived by his wife and two
children. The funeral services will

A BIG ATTRACTION
FOR The new YEAR
THE Red Widow" a Musical Come
dy of the Highest Attainments
Will be Seen at the Grand
January 4th.
HIGH CLASS SINGING
AND DANCING ARTISTS
The Piece Deals With an Incident
in the Life of the Newly Rich,

chanting in its
Melodies.

The authors and composers of
The Red Widow the musical COM
edy which will be. seen at the Grand
opera house in Decorah Monday eve
ming Jan. 4, have done more than
their shares toward making theatri-
cal history in America. Pollock and
Wolf are both newspaper and maga-
zine writer's who have long been con-
sidered dramatic authorities. To-
gether they are considered the fore
most American librettists and have
often been referred to as the Ameri-
can, w. H. Gilbert
Before joining pens with Rennold
Wolf Charming Pollock was known
as an author of high repute. His
first successful effort was the dra-
matization of William Norris famous
novel THE Pit, in which Wilton
Lackaye was seen for several years.
Other of his plays were In The
Bishops Carriage THE Little Gray
Lady" Such A Little Queen "The
Secret Orchard Clothes THE
Inner Shrine" and The Emperor
Napoleon. He and Rennold Wolf
have besides The Red Widow" writ
ten the book and Lyrics of THE
Beauty Shop" Her Little High
ness and MY Best Girl and of the
travesty which opened the oddity of
New York's amusement places The
Folies Bergere.'
Charles Gebest is known as a COM
poser only through THE Red Wild
ow" and THE Beauty Shop. He
has however for years arranged all
of the music written by George M.
Cohan and is considered one of the
best contemporary musicians.
In such great demand are these
three builders of musical plays that
their works are contracted for away
in advance. They are already work
ing on new piece and have con-
tracts for three others.
In these days when art is usually
Judged from a financial standpoint
some idea may be gained Of the es-
TEEN in which Messrs. Pollock and
Wolf are held by the fact that they
are the highest paid lihrettists writ
ing for the stage in this country to-
day.
With all of their works as with
THE Red Widow" there is a consis-
tent story to be told and this is car
ried out in the musical numbers as
well as in the dialogue. The Red
Widow is at present playing in Lon
don and Berlin and is shortly to oe
produced in Australia.

CHRISTMAS MOST POPULAR.
OF All the Holidays Christmas Re-
mains Day of Wholesome
Merriment and Religious
Sentiment.

Most of the public holidays have
lost their character. July 4, origin
ally a day Of inspiring patriotic ut
terance, has become a frolic of noise
and mischief. Thanksgiving, origin
ally day of prayer, is now a comp3-
tition in cooking, eating, and drink
ing. But Christmas still remains an
affair of wholesome merriment and
religious sentiment.
1t is the perennial appeal to the
child heart If the Sunday school
classes rig themselves out in white
dresses and colored sashes, and re-
cite simple verses of Scripture, the
parents will come out by the throng.
The most eloquent address by the
most learned divine would not draw
equally we'll
The sparkling eyes of the little
group around the tree, their rapture
when the dolls and mechanical toys
are distributed, count more than the
most costly present you could make
to the grownIups.
There is a great and growing ia
terest in the Christmas music, if it is
we'll done. If n choir consists of
young people who simply gather to
meet each other, and practise their
carols perfunctorily, they will never
draw a crowd If it is a working
choir, willing to sing an anthem
over and over again until it goes with
a will, that choir has its reputation,
and will never lack for listeners
when it celebrates a church festival
Christmas has is deeper and more
spiritual aspects which should ap-
peal to all who live for something
more than the grind and the sport of
life. But even for the thoughtless,
the rhythm and melody Of the carols.
the vernal suggestion of the decora-
tions, the mer:iment in the homes,
form a combination of sentiment and
sparkle that makes the day the most
popular of the holidays.

CHAMPION WINNESHIEK HOGS.
One WhOpper, Weighing 01O Pounds
Marketed in Decorail
Wednesday.

When it comes to raising hogs or
anything else which good farmers
raise, the farmers of Winneshiel1
county take first prize without the
shadow of doubt. They own good
farms and know how to farm Talk
about bringing over 100,0 600 Bel
gians to Iowa. Why they wouldn't
be in it with our farmers. Farming
an acre or two isn't like farming the
fine large farms owned by Winnie
shiek farmers, not for a minute.
Last Wednesday Henry Running
of Washington Prairie brought in =
monster hog which weighed go
pounds. He sold the animal to the
Farmers Cooperative Society and it
brought him the snug sum of $57.2).
VIM. Headington is another well
known Winneshiek farmer, who can
boast of raising large hogs. He sold
one on Wednesday to Henry Reeves
which weighed $50 pounds, and only
one year Old That hog was one not
to be sneezed at either
While Mr.. Running holds the rec
ord for one hog, we think S. E..
Brickner, of Glenwood township
holds it for the best load of hogs
marketed here this year. On the
same day he brought in eight head
which called for check of $21S.2S.
A few years ago S. e. was Clerk of
the Courts of Winneshiek county and
he made an excellent official Now
since he went to farming he is PROV
ing a most excellent farmer, as the
above sale of hogs will testify.
While the above hog marketed by
Mr.. Running was whopper, it only
surpassed in weight by a few pounds,
a hog which Wellington Telford OF
Hesper township sold in Decorah
four years ago. The animal weighed
920 pounds and was far from being
fat. 1t stood 3S inches high, was
two feet and half wide, and seven
foot, eight inches long.

SOUP HOUSE FOR CEDAR RAPIDS

Soup House Talked of.

IF there is anyone in this city who
can give deserving persons employ
ment it will relieve a critical situa-
tion," said Rev. Frank Ward of the
Sunshine Mission of Cedar Rapids
says the Cedar Rapids Republican.
THE number of people out of work.

astonishing, said Mr.. Ward. Il be-
lieve in foreign missions, but / be-
lieve greater benefit will be derived
from that source if some of the mo-
ney is taken to create business in
this city that will give persons em-
ployment Every day men and wo-
men come to the mission and ask for
work. They aie willing to do any
thing that will give them chance to
earn the price of meal. Even
great big men, some who are trades
men have begged me to find them
employment"
Mr.. Ward stated that he was plan
ming out of his own pocket to estab-
lish a soup house at the mission
where he can give a person a cup or
coffee and something to eat. "
some way is noy thought OF soon TO
relieve the unemployed situation N
Cedar Rapids there is going to be
much suffering, especially during the
cold weather. MIR. Ward is doing his
level best to secure work for the eni-
ployed that come to him for assis-
tance but he intimated that he vas

Judge HObson Has Right Idea.

Judge Hobson, of the thirteenth
judicial district, seems to have the
right idea as to the manner of hand
ling paroled persons. He and the
county attorney of Fayette County
sent to the board of parole recon-
mendation for parole before commit
ment Of seven young men. 1t was
dis inctly recognized the court itself,
under the law, has the right to pa
role before commitment in these
cases. But the matter was placed
in the hands OF the parole board be-
cause it is equipped for handling
such matters-ean keep the record
secure reports, get places for the
men and follow them up If they vio-
late the conditions Of the parole. The
court could not do this. In all Of
these cases it was provided first that
they had employment and would not
be cast out to make the difficulty OF
going right all the harder.

about Sept. 1st, made possible by the
installing Of their modern cold stor-
age plant last spring.
The firm employs about thirty men
and boys daily. paying out between
$50 and $40 day to them for pick
ing poultry Right now the plant is
receiving and dressing between 1000
and 1000 birds a day. After the
birds are dressed they are hung on
steel racks in the picking room, and
are afterwards removed to the work
room where the feet are washed,
then moved to another room where
all the heads are wrapped in tissue
paper. After that they are sent into
a room, with temperature of 3S
degrees, where they are left until
the following day. They are then
removed to the packing room, with
a temperature of 32 degrees, where
they are graded as to size and quail
ity and packed in boxes, twelve birds
to the box, and it takes about twen
ty different size boxes to accommo-
date the different sized birds. Most
all of the poultry is shipped to Buff
alo, N. Y. where it is stored for the
coming season. A large quantity of
our American poultry is exported to
England The most desirable ex-
ports are spring roosters, weighing
21s TO 3A pounds each. A gool
many Winneshiek county chickens go
TO Europe each year. Eggs go as
well, and fifteen cars of Woldum
eggs, sent to Buffalo have been
shipped to Europe.
The poultry season will begin to
slack up about the middle of Janu-
airy, but right now the firm is work
ing night and day.
The firms poultry feed bill for
November was $3.50, so it shows that
they have been handling some poul-
try.
The chicken pickers draw big mo-
ney. Last week check was issued
to one man for $10S for a week 5
work. OF course he paid out of that
in the neighborhood of $50 for tip
pers. Nevertheless it left him a big
check for week s work. 1t takes
about two days to dress a car of
poultry, which means it costs the
firm $1,000 for the poultry. freight
and labor.
The firm takes in poultry from a
number of the surrounding towns.
Fort Atkinson, Spillville, Protivin,
Calmar, Clermont and Postville, and
other places as we'll.
1t certainly " fine industry for
Winneshiek county and Decorah. The

noise about what they are doing,
but nevertheless they are putting

CHRISTMAS GRATITUDE.

Do we think enough about saying
Thank YOU at Christmas? We hur-
ry and rush through the busy days
before Christmas, and then when
Christmas actually comes we put off
the mood of giving and sit down in
tent upon the elimination of our ef-
fort, which is reached when we re-
ceive. We take what comes-some-
times eagerly, sometimes with a dis
appointed shrug-but we take what
comes, do we not, and are we always
prompt to give ohr thanks? A certain
benevolent lady said last year, II
gave thirty-eight presents this
Christmas and received only nine
letters of thanks" This seemed
dreadful beyond words. And what
of the others?" / hastened to ask.
Some of them thanked me when we
next met" she said carelessly, "and
some of them never thanked me at
all. You know she added after
pause, "one of the hardest things to
do is to give thanks graciously. Some
people can never do it. 1t is the dis
tinct mark of high breeding. / don't
Isuppose any one but king or a
princess has really the perfect art os
saying Thank YOU 1t is mark
of good breeding to be prompt and
gracious in giving thanks. Even il
the gift is a pincushion and you al
ready have ninety-nine others, say
THANK you" sweetly, affectionately
and in the spirit of Christmas. Do
not let twenty-four hours pass by
without taking sufficient time ID
write an appreciative, affectionate
! little note to every one who has re-
membered you at Christmas time.
Though this may be looked upon as
duty to others, it is far more than
that; it is a duty to yourself, very
real duty, for to be discourteous is
to be selfish and to be selfish is to
be outside of many of life's keenest
joys. AS a matter of self training.
