The Pottawattamlo County B r association
beld a meeting In the court house ycotcrday
afternoon for the purpose of taking appro
priate notion concerning the death of Colonel
D. B. Dalley. Hon. D. C. Bloomer , president
of the association , presided , and D. E.
Stuart was made temporary secretary. The
meeting was chiefly devoted to brief eulogies
of their associate by leadlug members of
the bar.
President Bloomer spoke feelingly of his
long association with Colonel Dalley , and
declared ho declrcd to pay as high a tribute
to the character of the dead man as words
could portray. He spoke particularly of the
Interest Colonel Dalley had always token In
the progress of the young members of the
bar and young men who were studying law ,
and declared that Colonel Dalley had gradu
ated more laWyers than any other member
of the bar. There was never a time when
there were not at least one or two young
men In his office studying law under bis di
rection. Interest In the young men did not
cease when they ceaoed to bo students , but
ho was always ready with advlco or more
practical assistance to help them alcng In
their cases whenever such help was needed.
He had knonn Colonel Bailey intimately
during all of the time since ho became a
resident of the city , tad looking backward
over those Icng and eventful yars , he was
unable to recall an Incident In his pro
fessional career that was not wholly to his
credit.
L. W. Rces paid a glowing tribute to the
character of Colonel Dalley as a lawyer and
as a man. Ho ascribed much of his success
to his ability to draw men to him.
Judge J. R. Reed said ho had become ac
quainted with Colonel Dalley when the lat
ter was first appo'nted prosecuting attorney
for the Third judicial district of Iowa , which
U now the Fifteenth. That association wca
always of the most pleasant character , and
throughout It all the habits and conduct of
the man strengthened the good opinion
formed at the start. Judge Reed paid a high
compliment to Colonel Bailey's ability as a
criminal lawyer , end declared that In this
rcopect he stood at the head of the Iowa bar.
As an attorney he was moat scrupulously
exact and honest. He never took advantage
of a client , the court nor the oppbslns
counsel. Ho entered Into a cnao with hlo
whole heart and soul , and while always a
most formidable antagonist , ho was abso
lutely Invincible when ho was convinced of
the innocence of a client whom he was
defending. In all recpccts ho was the Ideal
of professional courtesy. A number of In
cidents were recounted showing bis fidelity
to his clients , which tha absence of a fee
or any sort of compensation could not affect.
Several incidents were called up wherd he
had not only defended and acquitted clients
without any hope ot compensation , but had
expended large sums ot his own money to
carry the ca < < < ! s through.
At the conclusion of the euloglof a com
mittee was appointed , consisting of L. W.
Ross , Judge W. I. Smith , James McCabe and
Flnlcy Burke , to draft suitable resolutions
for adoption by the association. It was
noted that a majority of the members were
at ono time law students ot Colonel Dalley.
A committee of fifteen was appointed to at
tend the funeral on Monday afternoon ao
representatives of the association. The rqen
selected were : I. N. Fllcklnger , E. E. Aylcs-
worth. C. G. Sounders , C. M. Harl , W. H.
Ware. O. D. Wheeler , H. O. Ouren. J. J.

Liidt. G. H. Stlllman. W. A. Mynster , W.
E. Balnbrldgo and J. J. Stewart.
A committee to provide flowers and decora
tions for the casket was also appointed , con
sisting ot Jacob Slma , James McCabe ,
Spencer Smith and H. J. Chambers.
The funeral of Colonel Dalley will occur
Monday afternoon from the residence at 2:30 :
o'clock. It will bo largely attended. Colonel
Dallcy was a member of many civic societies
and the veteran military organizations. All
of these -will attend the funeral.

A distinctive feature of the social world

and the formation of the clubs followed.
They have become very popular associations
of a very social character and have naturally
drawn the attention ot the fathers , for whoso
accommodation special club meetings have
been held In the evenings. The Pierce street
