Fire at DIR. Hoeg's Residence.

The fire department was called to
the Dr. c. Hoeg residence in Curtin's
addition Sunday morning at 1l:30.
The fire truck was on the scene of
the fire about five minutes after the
alarm was turned in. Fire had brok-
en- through the roof near the chin
ney, but Chief BoIiinger had the fire
out in jig time, and very little of
the chemical was used to do it. The
tank contains 10 gallons. Even
though all the chemical is not used
the unused portion is poured out and
the tank recharged. The fire being
so quickly put out, with but slight
damage, illustrates that the truck
is a mighty nice addition to the city,
and it will save much property, not
only from damage by fire, but the
damage from water, which was al
ways a great factor in the damage to
homes. The chemical does the work
quick and effectively, aud does not
damage the property.

Win We Have an Oil Boom?

Several years ago there was con-
siderable talk about locating gas, or
oil in the river bed near the Tave-
mir bridge on the West Sfde. A pipe
was put down in the river and a gas
lamp placed on top Of it, and it burn
ed brightly for several days. Nobody
seemed willing to prospect, though.
Last week an Oelwein real estate
man was here and wanted to lease
the bottom land south and north of
Tavenir bridge, somewhere around
80 acres. This land is owned by An
drew Goldberg, Henry Lubke, Julius
Rosenthal and r. X. Uhlen. Some of
the Luther College and John Logs
don land comes into il also.
John Ask tells US that last fall
while he was doing some blowing in
the vicinity of the Tavenir bridge,
great quantities of oil came up thru
where the pillow run.
Well here is hoping that the DEL
vein man gets the lease, prospects
and finds gas or oil, enough to make
a few millionaires over on the West
Side.

PIONEER MOTHER PASSES.
Mrs. Jacob Headington Passed Away
Sunday Morning at Her Home
Here.

Mrs. Martha Jane Headington pas
sed away Sunday morning, Jan. 8, at
her home on DEBORAH avenue.
Martha Jane Powellson was born
in Mt. Vernon, Knox county, Ohio,
July Is, 1888, where she grew to
womanhood, and was united in mar
riage to Jacob Headington of near
that place on Feb. 3, 1858. The fol-
lowing October they emigrated TO
Iowa and settled on a farm in Ca
noe township, Winneshiek county.
Here the family lived until 1899
when they moved to DEBORAH where
the family home has since been.
She has been one of those noble
pioneer mothers who led a life con-
tented and happy with her family,
and although almost an invalid for
several years she endured her suf-
ferings with the fortitude which
characterizes the true Christian wife
and mother, and went down into TIE
valley of the shadow with peace in
her heart. She was life long men,
Der of the Christian church.
The husband, Jacob Headington,
died in DEBORAH in 1907. The surviy-
ing members of the family are three
sons, William, John and Frank
IHeadington, and one daughter, Mrs.
Andrew Sharp. Sixteen grandchild-
rem and seventeen great grand
children also survive. Besides these
she left host of old neighbors and
friends to whom she had greatly en-
deared herself.
The funeral services were held
from the Methodist church Tuesday
afternoon at one o'clock and was
largely attended, attesting to the
love, respect and esteem in which
this good woman was held by the
people of this community. The floral
offerings were profuse and beauti-
full.
After the words of comfort and
cheer had been spoken by Rev. Geo.
Woodall, the pastor, all that remain
ed of the loving mother was taken
to the silent city of the dead, and
laid in that long last sleep beside
her husband in Phelps cemetery.
even death has a wonderful mission
Though it robs us of those we love
1T draws our hearts from our sur
roundings,
To long for that meeting above"
mo matter how heavy our loss is
No matter how great our despair,
Doesn't heaven seem nearer anC
| brighter
To know that some loved ones are
there ?"

living in Minneapolis for number

the benefit of the hospital. Mr..

highly appreciated by all here, and
