Billy Sunday on Suffrage

At the request of Miss Julia Ryle, q
prominent Paterson woman, who has
given the use of the ground on which
the Tabernacle is erected, to the Billy
Sunday campaign committee, that
committee agreed to allow Miss Ryle
to have the tabernacle on Sunday after
noon, May 80, for a meeting at which
the Rev. Anna Howard Shaw was to
speak upon Woman Suffrage as a NOR
al issue. Upon the announcement OF
the plans for the meeting, the Anti
Suffragists became greatly agitsted,
aud Mrs. G. N. Hobart, their local
president, begged the Billy Sunday
committee not to allow DIR. Shaw to
speak in the tabernacle. Rather than
have such a meeting made the bone of
contention in religious circles In Pater-
son, Miss Ryle and the other ~suffragists
have Withdrawn their claims to the
tabernacle, and DIR. Shaw will speak
at the Regent theatre at 2.80 on the af-
ternoon of the Both. Commenting upon
bnt5 Nils 1s4 CAChoAb3 uA0 5tutc Rio5l-
dent, says: 1.-THE action of the Pater-
son Ants in striving TO prevent DR..
Shaw from speaking at the Sunday
tabernacle Is a striking exhibition OF
intolerance" The Rev. MI. Sunday
has declared himself for suffrage {, the
following words: 81 am In favor of any
thing the Devil is against, and l am
against anything the Devil is in favor
Of. l want you to understand that /
am not standing for votes for woman
because it is popular. l stood for votes
for Women when it was not as popular
rs it is today. They say women would
make Al awful mess oft, If they voted.
Well, I would like to know If they
would make a greater mess Of 1t than
the men have made. The Nation that
refuses to grant the request and cause
of women to protect their homes from
the forces that are eating out their vi
tails is doomed. whether 1t Is this or any

GOTTFRIED HEUSER DEAD.
Well known and Highly Respected
Citizen Passed Away Yesterday
Morning.

Yesterday morning at two O'Clock
occurred the death of one of Decor
abs well known citizens, Mr.. Gott-
fried Heuser, who passed away at
his home On Washington street, after
an illness of ten days from which he
suffered with the grippe, and heart
failure being the direct cause of his
death.
The deceased was born in Zurich,
Switzerland on May 20, 1885, and
came to America and Winneshiek
county in 1856, thus being among
it's early pioneers. On Oct. 20, 1861,
he was united in marriage to Frede-
RIGA Vogler, six children being born
to the union, VINO with the bereav-
ed wife and mother survive. They
are Robert, Sumner township; Mrs.
Frederick Rordorf, Sumner town
ship; Frederick, Spillville; Mrs.
Margaret Herold, Oelwein; Mrs.
Bertha Freye, Sumner township and
Henry who lives near Prosper,
Mimi.
Mr.. Heuser was one of the well
known farmers of the county, and
for a great many years resided near
Spillville. For nine years previous
to coming to DEBORAH the family
home was on the former Hinderman
farm, about a mile southwest of De-
corah For the past twelve years
Mr. and Mrs. Heuser made their
home in DEBORAH, having purchased
the Z. P. Johnson home on Wash
ington street.
In the death of Mr.. Heuser the
city and county loses one of their
very best citizens. He was honorable
and upright in all his dealings and
always a gentleman Of the highest
integrity and worth. He was an eX-
emplary citizen and stood for the
best in citizenship, and his friends
were legion. In the loss of this kind
husband and father the sympathy OF
all is extended to the bereave3
widow and children.
The funeral services will be held
tomorrow from the home, Rev. Nah
Ion Willett, of the Congregational
church officiating, and the remains
will be taken to Spillville for in
terment in the Haug cemetery.

STYLE SHOW WAS GREAT.
Living Models at Graceman's Yester-
day Drew Out Big Crowd.

Yesterday the ladies of the city
and vicinity were attracted in large
numbers to Graceman's ladies' ready
to-wear store, to enjoy the big fash
ion show put on by four models, the
Misses Young, Mitchell, Light and
Brown. The young ladies arrived
on the morning train from Chicago
and the first show was put on at
1920, followed by three more at
1870, $3.50 and $40. A platform
was erected in the rear part of the
store, with a platform running into
the big front window and the models
paraded before the crowds, which
was as dense on the outside of the
store as it was on the inside.
Suits, coats, taffeta dresses and
wash garments were displayed in q
most charming and pleasing manner
by the models. They all displayed
millinery from the Holland, Norton
and Byrnes millinery stores. 1t prov
ed a great day for the ladies and
the handsome garments shown were
much admired. Mr.. Graceman is 10
be congratulated on putting on a
show of this kind, which gives the
ladies a wonderful opportunity to
see themselves as others see them,
and to know just how the latest in
garments appear.

THE FRANTZ CAESAR co.
VIII Appear at the Star Tomorrow
and Friday Nights.

Frank Larson, an old DEBORAH
boy, and son of Carl Larson, Decor
abs we'll known bookbinder, arrived
in DEBORAH Monday accompanied by
his wife and has been visiting his
father and old friends since. Mr..
Larson has been on the road in the
theatrical business for about thirty
years, and tomorrow Thursday night
and Friday night also he will appear
in vaudeville at the Star theatre. He
appeared here about ten years ago at
the Grand and gave a wonderful per-
Torrance.
The company is known as the
Frantz Caesar company and their
mystery act is one of the best vaude-
vile acts on the stage today. Frantz
keeps the audience in an uproar all
the time. His comedy work is great
but the big feature, the greatest
trunk mystery act in the world, per-
formed by him is one of the most
mystifying acts ever seen on the
stage. His act has been awarded
that honor by the vaudeville. com
mission.
Mr.. Larson will be greeted by
crowded houses tomorrow and Fri
day night, and the people will see a
great show, something new, some
thing different. And don't forget to
get one of Caesars good luck
cards. They are free.

LOST TO FAYETTE.
Decorah High School Lost Last Game
on Home Floor.

The first and last game of the sea
son to be lost on their home floor,
was wrested from the High School
boys by the fast quintette from Fay
cite. The victory was secured by
a brilliant second-half rally, its bril-
liancy, however, being marred by
what looked a little like assistan &c
from the referee. Assistance is per-
haps too strong a word-let us say,
unelliciency.
DEBORAH got away well at the start,
Their passing was machine-like, and
the basket shooting spectacular.
Riste rolled in four in about as many
minutes. All of the local boys play
ed hard and we'll, outpointing their
opponents in every particular of the
game The Fayette boys seemed to
be weak in counting the ringers
when they had the chance.
In the second half, however, the
tables were turned. Fayette braced
up and shot baskets from every
where. Luck and other circumstan-
ces undoubtedly favored them, but
the victory was earned for all that.
/ 1t might be mentioned here that
Weiser had been out of the game for
couple of weeks with a bad knee,
At the close of the game the score
stood 32 to 20 in favor of the visit
ors. The boys expect to make bet
ter showing at Fayette this coming
Friday.
