United Presbyterian Church.

Just beautiful" was the expression
of everyone who attended the Chill
dren's Day exercises of the United
Presbyterian Sabbath school. The
program given by the children show
ed special preparation and careful
training both upon the part of the
children and the program committee
who deserve hearty, congratulations
for the fine program. The church
was beautifully decorated with potted
plants, palms, and cut flowers, and
never was more pleasing view pre-:
scented. The music of the Sabbath
school orchestra was of an extra high
class, far above the average. Every
one was well pleased with the musi-
cal part OF the program. Violin solos
by Roy Brissy and Wilhelm Read,
.cornet solo by J. w. Mcdonald, and a
clarinet solo by Homer White added
greatly to the entertainment, and all
showed complete understanding OF
the composers and perfect execu.
ton.

LlBBIE DEAN CHOSEN
Secretary of the Sunday Schools of
the 0Skaloosa District.

The Newton Record says: At the
recent session Of the Oskaloosa Dis
triCt Conference of NJ. +. churches,
provision was made for the employ
ment of an Efficient Secretary to give
the entire time for the development
Of Sunday School interests among
MethOdists of the district. This is a
distinct forward movement and in the
line with the progressive policies ad
opted and pushed by DR.. George l..
Minear, the new District Superintend-
ent.
Miss Libbie Dean OF Newton was
elected to this office and will begin
her duties September 1st From that
time she will devote the year to hold
ing Efficiency Congresses for groups
of parishes in the district and will
likely conduct one OF these each
month. In addition, she will visit the
churches singly and spend Sunday,
and perhaps a few week days in de-
veloping the Sunday School workers
in the new methods and plans of mod
ern Sunday School endeavor. She has
large field under her supervision
AMI will devote her entire time to it.
At present, her field has SO Sunday
Schools, 1882 officers and teachers,
and 10,777 scholars. Miss Dean is a
devoted christian woman and Sunday
School worker and with her pleasing
personality is going to accomplish a
great work in her new field. The con-
ference could not have made better
selection for the work.

IN the hog cholera lecture which
was given at the last stop, DR.. K. w.
Stouder said: Getting rid of hog
cholera is largely a matter of pre-
vention. The federal government
has traced the spread of the disease
in 2,791 cases to the following:
Exchanging labor and visiting, 23.1O;
from adjoining farms, S.42; harbored
infection, 1859; dogs, 9.57; cars and
highways, 1.18; purchase of new
stock, $40; contaminated streams,
l.61; birds, 1877, and indefinite,
1886.
Everybody in Mahaska county
gives |. w. Cook of Oskaloosa credit
for the success of the tour. Mr.. Cook
says that the good feeling and good
will existing between the town and
country were utilized to the fullest
extent. The plan with the tour as
with the county fair and the fall fes-
tival, is to make it neither an Os-
kaloosa nor a farmers affair, but
Mahaska county festivity. Joint COM
mittees of farmers and townsmen
worked out details. The oranges
looked after getting the farmers out,
and the Commercial club took on
The game function in town.

"One interesting feature learned
about the county farm is that it is
self-supporting. The sale of pro-
iucts raised, which includes both gar
len and truck crops and general
arm products, more than pays the
cost of maintaining the institution"

STRIKE IS PREVENTED
Differences at English Creek Mines
Have Been Adjusted.

The Knoxville JOurnel says: The
No. mine OF The English Creek Coal
Co. Which had been running an
average of two days per week during
May and April. got right down to the
fragile end last week, being in opera
ton but one full day. The cause of
this low Cbb in the work, the lowest
since the mine vas opened was a
strike of the mule drivers and came
about through a refusal of the mine
boss to promise the drivers a share
Of the day work extra work. during
the slack time. 1t appears that the
drivers understood the agreement to
insure them work with the timberm2n
during times when the miners were
idle. On Fridav morning a few of the
drivers got little loud in pressing
their claims and were told to call
for their pay checks" Instead of that
few marching up to the cashiers win
dow, the entire force OF drivers called
for their time and the miners were
forced to come home FOR the day. The
fOreYan then promised the miners
work for Saturday, figuring that there
were enough drivers among the min
crs to do the hauling, but when Sat
uruay came the miner drivers refused
TO take charge Of the mules, that mis-
understanding resulting in another
day of idlencss. Mr.. John Ramsay,
the general superintendent, who re-
sides in De3 Moines, came in at 8
O'Clock Saturday; called a little con-
ference with the discharged drivers,
and soon had everything smoothed
down-the drivers agreeing to return
to their work Monday.

Cash Grain Market.

Chicago, June 15.-Export sales of
100000 bushels old cash wheat and
S25, 900 bushels cash oats were re-
ported at the seaboard late Monday
and yesterday by Russell's News Blu
reau. There were unconfirmed re-
ports of business in corn. The oat
business is understood to represent
cash sales against old contracts
made several weeks ago and does not
represent fresh bids from abroad.
These oats were secured from cash
handlers on Chicago, Milwaukee, the
Northwest and Omaha, the total
sales being reported at $4,000 bu in
all positions, while three of the sea-
board houses bought $4,000 blu. July
in the Chicago pit yesterday.
Milling demand for cash wheat late
Monday was active, sales of 100000
bu. old hard winter being made by
Chicago handlers to eastern mills.
and there was $4,000 bu. yesterday.
Domestic demand for cash corn
was urgent, Chicago handlers selling
$50. 900 bu., and industries picked up
some lots in store at NC under July
for No. 2 mixed and yellow. Sample
prices here were 1@2c lower with
futures, st. Louis and Kansas City
h@1c lower, Omaha 1@1hc lower,
Peoria 1@1Ac lower and Milwaukee
@2c lower.
Premiums on old oats are strong,
being made at Chicago yesterday at
&c over July. Domestic demand was
fair, with shipping sales 100000 bu.
