ELIZABETH NIX.

Miss Elizabeth Nix was born in Du-
buque, Iowa, March 9th, 1S41, and
passed away at her home in Manches-
ter, Iowa, July 26th 1919. About
forty years ago the family moved to
Manchester where she has since re-
sided. The family consisted of elev-
en- children. The father and mother,
four brothers and three sisters have
preceded her to the world beyond.
Funeral services were held at the
home Tuesday afternoon at three
o'clock. Rev. s. S. Beatty, pastor OF
the Methodist Episcopal church, had
charge of the service. Interment was
made in Oakland cemetery.
Miss Nix was one of the everyday
kind of women, always helpful, and
faithful in every possible way. For
many years she was as mother IN
the home, ready to do whatever need
ed to be done. Never would she
speak unkindly OF anyone. She was
the very embodiment of gentleness
and in her quiet way she performed
life's tasks.
She was a member Of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, and was q
faithful attendant upon the services
until her health failed. For several
years she had been in poor health,
and during the past six months her
strength gradually failed, until the
end came.
She is survived by two sisters, Mrs.
L.sG. Rumsey, and Miss Angle, and
one brother, Elijah Nix, all Of this
city. She also leaves one niece, Mrs.
MacHogan, of Dyersville.

FREIGHT TRAIN GOES IN DITCH

FREIGHT TRAIN GOES IN DlICH'
The Illinois Central Railway Com
pany sustained heavy loss when
west bound freight was ditched while
going over Plum Creek just east OF
Earlville Sunday. Seventeen cars were
derailed, and most of them completely
wrecked. Eight or nine refrigerator
cars were thrown into Plum Creek,
off the high bridge. Several car
loads of coal were piled up on the
south side of the tracks. A car load
of water melons and one car OF ice
were also in the wreck. Practically
every tie was torn from the bridge,
and the track on either end OF the
bridge was torn up for some dis
tance. A broken rail is said to have
been the cause of the wreck. For
tunately for the train crew the en-
CINE passed over the defective rail
without being derailed. None Of the
trains crew was injured. For nearly
twenty-four hours all traffic was
suspended, and some of the passenger
trains were detoured over the Chi
cago, Great Western line from Dyers-
vile to Waterloo by way Of Oelwein.

SMALL GRAIN Is LIGHT.

Threshing machines are humming
in all directions at this time. Many
of the farmers are greatly disappoint-
ed in the yield Of oats. While the
month of June was good month for
corn, it appears to have been too
hot for small grain. In driving over
northeastern Iowa we observed that
the small grain on clay soil is much
better, and is yielding in many in
stances over fifty bushels to the
acre. With occasional showers the
corn crop in this section promises to
be above the average.

A SURPRISED MINISTER.

The good people of the Presbyterian
church at Hopkinton wrought great
surprise on their much beloved pas
tor last Sunday evening. They chose
DR.. Hinkhouse of the college to be
their mouth piece. Just as he was
about to close the services DR.. Hink-
house arose and went forward and
told DR.. Ensign that the people want
ed him to leave. The good doctor did
not know what to make Of that. He
was still worse confounded when told
that they wanted his leaving to be for
good He was relieved somewhat
when he was told that twas for his
good that they were making this re-
quest. They felt that his self sacri-
ficing and continuous labors for six
years or more justified them in ask
ing him to take long vacation, as
long as he would, anyway month.
Knowing his fidelity to the cause COM
mitted to his care they felt safe to
put it that way. Knowing his dis
position to take any leisure time he
might have and devote it to helping
some mission taeld they said to him
that they wanted him to regard this
as time for recreation and thereby
gather strength for the labors yet be-
fore him. That he might be from fin
ancia1 cares free the congregation
through DR.. Hinkhouse presented him
with finely engraved piece of paper
bearing goodly number of figures
that would be honored at the bank.
This was of sufficient size to warrant
the Injunction to share the vacation
with the mistress of the manse. For
once the good Doctor was in confus-
ion and was greatly put to in thank
ing his parishioners for the unexpect-
ed kindness. 1t is safe to say that
Hopkinton has no more beloved cit
izen than DR.. Ensign. He has won
large place in the hearts of the peo-
pie for his uniform kindness and con-
stant fidelity to all that is pure and
good. He has a host of friends
throughout Delaware county where
he has resided these many years. May
his bow continue in strength. Xxx
