the hogs will do much better.

"Soon I'll shuffle off this mortal
coil and go sweeping through the
gates o£ New Jerusalem." With
these prophetic words on his lips,
Pierce RatlilT, sixty eight years old,
a pioneer business man, churchman
and orator, fell dying to the platform
at Moraingside. where he was mak
ing a Fourth of July speech for the
Sioux City Holiness association yes
terday. Men and women flocked
about tho platform, crying and
wriuging their hands, shocked by
tlie tragedy. Medical assistance
was summoned, but it was found
that deatli had been almost instan
taneous. The cause was heart
trouble.—Iowa Evening Press.
—Sunday at her home near For
(Htvillo, south of this city occurred
the death of Mrs. B. J. Nelson after
a severe illness of only a few hours
duration. The funeral was held at
2 p. m. Tuesday from ,the residence
interment being made in the Forest
ville cemetary. Mrs. Nelson was
born in Woodburn township, Davis
county, 111., and came here when but
four years old. She was married in

Land in the vicinity of Mount
Vernon is now selling t.s high us
$150 per acre. When Iowa land
ro3e lo $100 there was considerable
excitement and many predicted that
those figures could not be maintain
ed and that the people who bought
at $1C0 would soon be glad to get
$75 for the land. But the prophets
did iii make a hit. Now there are
many transfers at 8125 to $150,
and no one seems to give any special
heed thereto, and no one is predict
ing that the prices will drop. Quite
to the contrary, there is an ever
growing belief that ere long there
will be §200 land in Iowa. That is
land used purely and solely for
agricultural purposes. And that
there will be plenty of it. And these
who are in the habit of looking back
occasionally, incline to the belief
that the prophets who are talking of
the $200 land may be right.—Bur
lington Hawkeye.
We heard an old resident of Iowa
say tho other day, a bright man of
70, who is well informed on all
questions and who has invested in
real estate since young manhood,
that Central Iowa land would sell
for over $200 an acre within twenty
five years. The land has about dou
bled in value in fifteen years. That
it will double again in twenty-five is
not as wild a prediction as might
be made. True Iowa land will not
return over 3 to 4 per cent clear on
the present valuation, but the coun
try must be satisfied with lower rates
of interest in the future. The great
ly increased production of gold, the
increased value of farm products
and the high wages now received by
laborers in all lin.s will make money
pleniier than ever before. There
never was a better time to buy land.

The tuberculosis hospital site still
hangs around the "Backbone" in
Delaware county. There are some
who object to using this place as a
hospital ground, believing it better
co reserve it for pleasure purposes,
[f these people ever had a case of
tuberculosis in their family they
tvould fell differently about this
matter. If they have ever had a
mother, a sister, wife or any one
lear to them fade away from them
lay by day with consumption, surely
r.heir heart is unkind to deny these
illlictedjpeople any spot on earth
where the least possible ray of relief
may come to them. It is a dread
disease and anythiug in the wide
orld that can carry alittlesunshine
into th'e lives of those whom sure
death stares in the face, it should be
granted them cheerfully and heart

writer in the Homestead de
clares that the new law which went
into effect yesterday, and which re
quires all creameries to pasteurize
their separated milk—that is, heat it
to 185 degrees—will be exceedingly
unpopular, and that arrangements
are being made in Bremer county to
test the constitutionality of the law.
(n support of the law it is claimed
that the Iowa cows are afflicted with
tuberculosis, and that the farm ani
mates ponsuming the skimmed milk
will contract the same disease unless
the germs are destroyed by heat.
The writer declares this to be un
true, and he asks as a matter of con
sistency, why the lawmakers of Iowa,
if they considered Iowa milk danger
ous, did not require the milk to be
pasteurized which is to be drank by
the people if milk is conveyinj
tuberculosis, why is it that separate!
milk is more BO than whole milk,
and why did the Iowa legislator con
fine his attention to separated milk,
when it has been shown that' the
separator is a purifier?—Monticello

Another Plonfeer Gone.
On Tuesday morning, July 3rd,
1900, at half-past six o'clock occurr
ed the death of Mr. Joseph Funk,
Sr., one of the eldest pioneers in this
part of the country, at his home
south of town. He had been in fail
ing health for some time past and
his death came as a relief to all
suffering.
Mr. Funk was born in German
Austria nearly eighty-fouryears ago,
and came to America in 1807, land
iiig on our soil April 1st of that
year, and arrived in Yankee Settle
ment (now Edgewood) April 10th.
When he reached here he had just
$2.00 which constituted all of his
earthly possessions. By hard and
earnest labor he became the owner
of a fine farm just west of town
which is now in the possession of
his late son, John's family.
The funeral was held this fore
noon at half past 10 o'clock at the
Catholic church in Greeley, the ser-
vices being conducted by Rev.
Father Hartigan.
Mr. Funk was an honest man, a
good neighbor and a true husband
and father. His wife died about
twelve years ago and he leaves to
mourn his death, two sons, Joe, Jr.,
and Anton, besides several grand
children.
The Journal extends its sympathy
with all others to the bereaved rela
tives.—Edgewood Journal.
Demise of Michael Hogan.
Mr. Michael Ilogan, an old and
respected citizen who lived for a half
century on the line between Castle
Grove township in this county and
Delaware county, died at his home
on the afternoon of the 20th nit.,
aged 74, after a illness of long dur
ation. For more than a year Mr.
Hogan ha.l been in poor health, and
on several occasions liis life was pro
longed by surgical operations.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at the church of the Immaculate
Conception, in Castle Grove town
ship, by liev. M. S. Murphy, last
Monday forenoon. Notwithstanding
the rain a large concourse of
friends accompanied the remains
from the late home of the deceased
to the church, there ingmore than
100 conveyances in the funeral pro
cession. Three nieces of the deceas
ed. Kathryn, Mae and Clara Hogan
acted as flower girls. The honorary
pall bearerg, Messrs. John Carrick,
Wm. Crowley, Thomas Flemming,
A. N. Scott, Curtis Bacon and A. B.
Wheeless were pioneer friends of
the deceased. The active pallbearers
were John E. Hogan, James Crowley,
Peter Kehoe. Thomas Ivehoe, Frank
Ivehoe, John Hogan, all nephews of
the deceased.
Rev. Father Murphy solemnized
mass, and afterwards delivered a
short sermon wherein he measured
the true character of his parishioner.
When he said that Mr. Hogan was
honest, and that his feelings were
much deeper than his outward
demonstrations, he voiced the be
lief of those who new him best.
Mr. Hogan was very widely known,
and friends from three counties were
drawn to his funeral.
Michael Hogan was born in Ross
gray county, Ireland, March 16,
1832. He ca-ne to the United States
in his youth, and lias resided in Iowa
since 1850. He was married to
Johanna Kehoe, who survives him

January that they celebrated their
golden wedding. Mr. Hogan was a
lard worker and a good manager,
and succeeded in accumulating a
farm of several hundred acres which
was stocked with high bred cattle.

y- Am Ere For an Ere.
A young lady friend of our acquaint
ance has recently received a shock.
Among her extensive male acquaint
ances there Is a blue eyed youth. He
goes much Into society and Is a hot fa
vorite among the nicer sex because of
Ills eyes. Alack! One of them Is glass.
But there la no need, as he says, for
every one to know that, and, really, it
seems so much the counterpart of the
other thut not one In a hundred would
detect It. On this occasion he escorted
the young lady In question to a re
freshment rooui. As they were taking
tea und coffee he looked unutterable
things at her, when all of sudden she
gave vent to a startled exclamation.
Her eyes fixed on his with a mysteri
ous lntentness and horror. A fly had
settled In the center of his glass eye
and remained there, he, of course, un
conscious of its presence. The sight of
thut eye looking at her with a fly on It
and the owner making no attempt to
brush It off, was too much for his com
panion. It overpowered ber, and she
shudders when she recalls the circum
stance.—Loudon Answers.
The Queer Chameleon.'
There Is nothing in the world will In
duce a chameleon to tuke even the
slightest apparent Interest In Its sur
roundings unless It be the sight of
what It considers a toothsome Insect.
The chameleon's method of taking Its
prey Is very curious, being effected by
shooting out an enormously long,
wormllke tongue, the end of which Is
clubbed and covered with a vlsdd se
cretion, to which the Insects stick and
ate thus drawu Into Its mouth. The ac
tual projection of the tongue Is made
with marvelous rapidity. The eyes of
the chameleon nre very curious. They
are very large, but, with the exception
of a small opening In the center, are
covered with skin. They are also en
tirely Independent of each other, with
the result that occasionally the crea
ture Is looking forward over Its nose
with one eye, while with the other It Is
Intently watching something directly
behind It.

An English humorist many years ago
hit \ipon a neat way of scoring against
certain politicians of the times. A
comic Journal, not being a newspaper

humorist Is question reported a few
"first Hues" from speeches by promi

As Napoleon was oue day passing In

who, perhaps from want of brilliancy
ou tbe man's part, bad never been ad

any apparent movement of tbe mus
cles of bis face:
"Fifteen campaigns, private, eap

Aud the emperor, without turning
his head or slackening his pace, said:
"Colonel, brigadier, baron!"
Theu he was gone. There had, in
deed, been no time for a word more
than bad been passed, but these bad
sufficed for tbe captain to communi
cate a long story and a reproachful
complaint and for the emperor to set
matters right with military and so

case, though only some small matter of

the examination of a number of deeds
aud records. Mr. Hoar accordingly
told his clieut to come back in two
days for bis opinion. Tbe Irishman
left the office, evldeutly very reluctant
at tho delay. Turning at the door, he
asked, "Couldn't ye give mo the an

Can Animal* Illunlif
It is hard to tell whether animals
blush, for their faces are covered so
thickly with fur or hair or feathers
that we do not know what may be
going on beueatli. Were they as bare
faced as man it is more than likely we
should see them blush, especially tbe
more bashful sort and those with some
sense of shame. It Is a fact that the
faces of vultures tlush, and several of
the monkeys become purple with rage,
which may' be considered as a kind of
blushing. This may be proved any
day In the monkey bouse In tbe Lon
don zoologlcul gardens, where the ba
boons seem to fly Into a passion on the
smallest provocation.—London Mall.

A scientist says that when people
were cave dwellers their diet consisted
entirely of roots aud fruits and that it
is not unnatural to suppose that the
food was often stored away. In course
of time the fruit fermented, the sugar
in It was turned into pure alcohol apd
the ca.ve dwellers drank it and got to

Everybody in tho whole civilized
world between the eleventh a:ul the
seventeenth centuries believed that the
"barnacle noose" hatehod from that
species of tihclilish called the banuiele.
Tbe story was first told by Oambrensfs
and was devoutly believed by all Chris
tendom for more than half a thousand
years. A well Known scientific writer,
reviewing tbe opinions of t'aiuhroasls,
say.s: "According to our venerable au
thority, the barnacle ^oose is pen era
ted
from lo.^s of wood allowed to decom
pose in the water. When decomposi
tion has fairly bo^un, small bumps on
the loj may be o!serve:l. I.ittle by
little .these Increase in size, and finally
assume the form and shape of a mass
of barnacles, which is well known as
a kind of shellfish. Soon after the
shell, or husk, bursts open and a full
grown goose may be seen in the water
clinging to the log only by its bill. A
few days longer it continues to draw
its nourishment from the log, then
breaks away in the form of a perfect
goose, exercising all the functions of
Its kind."

Here Is a little story which the Eng
lish papers tell and any oue is at lib
erty to believe if he will. No alHdavlts
go with It. When Lord Duflferiu was
viceroy of India the uuihurajah of In

memento an ivory paper cutter belong

tho Indian left, and the viceroy never
saw him until some months later when
the mnharajah-lutroduced a fine young
elephant Into the room. A pile of news*
papers lay at Lord Dufferlu's side. The
animal went up to them, cut them
neatly with his tusks, which had been
purposely sharpened, and laid them in
a neat heap on the floor, ready for pe
rusal.

contracted twelve years ago was ne
glected until it finally grew into as

able could not give me more than
temporary relief, Foley's Honey and
