Three DIE WHEN
A TRAIN PLUNCES
THROUGH bridge
Fireman Engineer ami Baggageman
Are Killed and Thirty-fve In.
jured Near Attica, Ind.

Attica, Ind, April 6.-Three per-
sons were killed and about thirty
five others injured when Wabash
passenger train known as the Con-
tinental Limited crashed through a
bridge over the Wabash river just
west of here yesterday. The engine,
a baggage car and the day coach
dropped into the water.
The dead:
j. l.. Miller, Peru, Ind, fireman.
Timothy Hull, Peru, Ind, engin-
eer.
Harry Thomas, Huntington, Ind,
baggageman.
When the cars left the bridge the
day coach, which was crowded, fell
with the rear end out of the water,
and although the majority of the in
jured were in this car, nobody was
killed. The car hardly had settled
in the water before the work OF res
cuing the passengers was commenc-
ed and in few minutes all had been
taken out. They were taken to a
hospital at Lafayette on a special
train.
The railroads bridge over the Wa
bash was weakened early yesterday
when freight train was wrecked
upon the structure. The Continental
Limited crept out on the bridge
slowly and when about 100 feet out
the bridge gave way. The engineer
was caught under his engine and
crushed to death. The fireman, who
jumped, was scalded to death, and
when the front end of the baggage
car was toppled downward Thomas
was crushed beneath an avalanche
of trunks.
All steel cars, railroad officials
say, probably prevented a greater
loss of life.

able nature. The sympathies OF
friends in this community will be
extended to the sorrowing family at
this time.

FRANK C0RB|N MEETS
WITH AN ACCIDENT
Face Quite Seriously Burned With
Gasoline Explosion at Power
Plant.

Frank Corbin, employed by the
city electric light department, Sun
day was the victim of very pain
full accident. He was at the light
plant cleaning his bicycle with gas
oline and had the ball bearings
from the coaster brake in the quart
measure containing the gasoline.
When he had finished cleaning the
machine he turned and threw the
gasoline in small catch basin rum
ming into the sewer, forgetting that
several of the bearings were also in
the gasoline. Immediately upon
throwing the gasoline in the sewer
he remembered having placed the
bearings in the can and without
thinking he lighted a match to find
them. The gasoline exploded, Sc
verely burning his face and one
hand. Luckily, however, he had not
stopped over the catch basin or more
serious injuries would have taken
place. The fact that Mr.. Corbin had
his cap pulled down far over his
face saved his hair and partially
protected his face, and although
quite badly burned he considers
himself lucky that he was not more
severely injured through his own
thoughtlessness.

THE |. n. C'S TO
GO TO CAMP DODGE
Orders Have Been Issued by the War
Department at Washington
to That Effect.

Orders have gone forth from the
war department at Washington that
the Iowa national guard, in com
pany with the two Nebraska regi-
ments, would camp at Camp Dodge
few miles out of Des Moines near
the rifle range, and at which the
Fifty-SiXth regiment encamped a
few years ago. This will mean that
six regiments will be camped at Des
Moines and the war game will be
played. on the largest scale ever
played in the state. Never before
has six regiments camped together
in this state for war games and 1t
is expected that the camp this year
will be the finest ever held in Iowa.
The date of the encampment, as far
as known, will be from August 8 to
August -. It is expected that the
Fifty-Sixth regiment will be brigad-
ed with the two Nebraska regiments,
and this brigade will be pitted
against the Iowa brigade composed
of the three regiments in the south
ern part of the state. Many of the
officers were in hopes that the ma
neuvers might be held near Iowa
City, as the ground is much better
for the war game, but it is improb-
able the order from the War Depart
ment will be changed. Owing to-
the fact that practically all available
regular troops are being held at the
border only one company of the
Twenty-Ninth Infantry will be sent
to Camp Dodge in August from
Texas City, Texas. An Officers
school and examination will be. held
at Camp Dodge June 20 to 28, at
which local officers will attend.
The national guard troops are~ be-
ing pushed, every help possible is
being given them by the war de-
partment and at present is the most
efficient body of reservoirs in the
world. In case of trouble with any
other country the bulk of the work
would rest upon the national guards,
as the regular troops are such al
small force.

SENTIMENT IS GET
TING STRONG FOR Lee
Proposed Candidacy for Governor
Meeting With Approval all
Over the State.

Fort Dodge Messenger: In con-
firmation of reports that have been
whispered over the northern part of
Iowa and are now creeping to the
states farthermost corners, nomina-
ton papers for Judge c. G. Lee of
Ames, who is holding court in this
city, will be started here Monday.
The probable candidacy of Judge
Lee is received by the attorneys Of
this district with great enthusiasm.
1t is stated by leading republicans
here that Judge Lee will receive the
unanimous support of this judicial
district and has a strong following
in Iowa at large. He is one of the
strong men in the state, under the
present condition of affairs. He is
also an excellent campaigner, and is
regarded as one of the most logical
candidates yet broached. He has
been approached by friends in the
matter, and has expressed himself
as receptive, although he himself has
made no announcement that he will
undertake the campaign.
A Des Moines dispatch has the
following regarding the Lee candid
acy:
Des Moines, April 5.-An inter-
esting feature of Fridays political
gossip is story to the effect that
Judge C. G. Lee, of Ames, will prob
ably be a candidate for governor
against Gov. George W. Clarke in
the June primary.
Judge Lee has been on the district
bench for some time in district
comprised of Story, Boone, Hamil-
ton, Hardin, Webster, Wright and
Franklin counties. A few days ago
the Webster City Freeman-Tribune,
Of Hamilton county, contained a
column editorial declaring that Gov.
Clarke would be defeated if renom-
mated. The talk here is that the
Webster City paper was simply mr.
ing the opening gun in an up state
movement to make war on Clarke.
It is asserted the Rowley candid
acy is not creating enthusiasm in
that section and it is said Judge
Lee, who is a good campaigner,
would be the strongest man to op-
pose the present governor.

ARE CONSIDERING
GETTING A HOME
May Buy or Erect Building.-Have
Secured Options on Some
Property.

The Masonic lodge is considering
the matter of building or buying a
home. They have secured prices on
some property on Second street with
a view of fixing it up for lodge pur-
poses. Their present quarters in
the Clagg building are unsatisfact-
ory because of the noise from the
trains on the Northwestern road
and they are very desirous of getting
on the south side of the street or Of
getting some location more salts
factory than the one they now have.
They have secured prices on the w.
C. Burleson and the Geo. j. Mauch
properties, now occupied by the Mer-
camille company store, also on the
Clagg building adjoining, and one or
two others. If they should secure
these properties they would over
haul the second stories, fitting them
up into a lodge room and other nee
essary apartments for lodge occu-
pancy. They now own the lot at the
southwest corner of Des Moines and
Division streets and some of the
members favor building there, while
others want to secure a property in
a location where the lower floor will
bring in a revenue to pay interest
on the investment .

MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
Weather Bureau Says Unsettled Con-
ditions Will Prevail Early
-,
Part of This Week.

Washington, D. c., April 6.-Fair
skies were promised last night by
the weather bureau to the eastern
section of the country during the
first part of the week, but unsettled
conditions, probably with rain or
snow, will prevail in the wake of a
Glow pressure" area that will travel
eastward from the plateau regions,
reaching the seaboard about the
middle of the week.
Fair weather will continue" the
bulletin said, probably most of the
week in the south except the penin-
sula of Florida where local rains
will occur early in the week. A low
pressure area now over the plateau
region will move eastward, attended
by unsettled weather and local rains
or SHOWS in the Rocky mountain re-
gion, the plains states and the Mis-
souri, valley on Monday, extending
Monday and Tuesday into the upper
Mississippi valley and the upper lake
region and reaching the lower lake
region, the middle and north Allan
tic states about the middle of the
week. A short period of fair wealth
er will follow, beginning Monday
west of the Rocky mountains,
reaching the central portions Of the
country by the middle Of the week
and the east a day or so later.
Another disturbance will probab--
ly reach the north Pacific coast by
Tuesday. 1t will move eastward and
southeastward over the Pacific
states and plateau region, attended
by rains over the central and north
ern districts and it should reach the
central portion of the country some
time after the middle of the week.
Temperatures will rise by Tues
day over the east and south, and no
unusual temperatures are indicated
at present over any section"

the Nazerene.

NOTED PASTORS TOOK PART

Sunday, April 9TH, was a great
day in the Webster City Pentecostal
Church of the Nazarene. At the
morning service Rev. E. J. Flem-
ming, pastor of the church at Chari-
ton, also district secretary of Sun
day schools, brought the message
using as his text: Lev. 10, l and 2
also Rom. els. His message was
given with the JUNCTION of the spirit
and at the close several souls were
at the altar seeking pardon or pur-
ity.
At 3 o'clock the dedicatory SER
vice was held, Rev. E. A. Clark, Dist.
Supt., presiding, using as founda-
ton Gen. 2S-17. "This is none 9TH
er but the house of God and this is
the gate of heaven" For fully an
hour the people drank in truth see
| ing not the messenger but the mess
age. The church and her friends
gathered at the close of this eloquent
discourse around the altar and
kneeling consecrated the entire
building from furnace to shingle to
God to be used only for holy pur-
poses. We have heard dedications
made and attended conservation
meetings before, but never as i'm
pressive a one as this. At this SER
vice donations to the amount OF
S56S.33 were pledged to cover an
indebtedness of 1915, leaving an
amount of about $500 yet to be met.
People of no denomination and Of all
denominations have so kindly assist
ed us, donating in all before yester-
day an amount equal to about ST.
200, for which we praise God. We
feel the $500 yet to be raised can be
easily met, as some have promised
who have not yet given.
The day closed with praise SER
vice in the evening at O'Clock, al
ter which Rev. Clark brought us the
message again, his text being: Be
hold | stand at the door and knock.
if any man hear my voice and open
| the door, | will come in and sup
with him and he with me" We
have often heard discoursed from
this common text, but never present
ed from such an angle as viewed by
Rev. Clark, in which he likened the
body, an habitation of God through
the Spirit divided into the rooms;
\ 1 reason, 2 affection, conscience,
4 will, faith, charging upon eacf
one and the time slipped away 81
! quickly we could have listened twic'
II rs long. He showed by this how maj
is made the temple of the Hol.
