The report io taken from an Omaha paper. It was a shock to all when tho word camu Monday night to Mrs. Bridenbaugh that the indications pointed to tho conclusion that her husband had leap ed from the Douglas street motor bridge at Omaha Into the Missouri river. All late reports were to tho eirect that Lyss was recovering in satisfactory shape from his nervous breakdown duo to work und a poison- ed condition of the system which came primarily from diseased teeth.

Every elVort is being made to recover the body but up to Wednes day noon they had been unsuccessful. Mrs. Bridenbaugh and the family have the most sincere sympathy of all in this great affliction, and ii their grievous loss. Lyss Biidon baugh was a model type of the com plete American citizen, being n bus iness builder, always a live wire and community booster, and in his home a companion of his boys and a sturdy champion of all that kept the homo pure. He had been identified with v.irious Coleridge busine enterpris es tor about tlurty-tliree year.'., start ing as a clerk in the store of G. W. Jenkins, later becoming a partner in the business and controlling the ma jority of the trade of the community. in hum he became cashier ol the Coleridge Notional bank and was connect' 1 with this institution until abou months ago when he tilt- poseii lis stock to other stock- holdei , , -lining at that time to take oil" a" year in which to recuperate. He was a strong factor in the bank and through his personality and n bounded energy materially assisted in bringing it up to its present prosjiur Ity. Lyss has prospered through his activities and left a considerable es tate, part of which is life insurance policitvj to a value of $10,000. But his poor health had caused him to worry needlessly over financial mat ters. It is indeed sad that sucn a tragedy had to hoppen and especial ly is it to be regretted when the probabilities for a restoration to full health within a few weeks was con fidently expected by the physician in charge.

BBW3BSSBEES3BSWBSESSSSBSSBS3eSSBSB83BSB fiiillieran Church Notes By Rev C. U. Lowe. There will be no practice for the young people this week because of the general attendance at tho fair. Miss Margaret Hacker, the high school teacher at Brushy Bend, pre sided at the piano last Sunday, and is ready to be thero all the time The annual congregational meeting will be held at the Salum church next Sunday morning. Election of officers and the receiving of reports for the year will be tho principle things to be done. Also anything that is for the interest of tho congregation may be brought before thescssion. This is your meeting, you will bo given i privilege to have your soy. Come nnd take part. It would be a line thing if a lot of us from Salem would bo present at tho organization of the Calvary church at South Sioux City next Sun day night. It is located in one of the store rooms just south of tho one where tho Mail is published, across tho street from the drug store. You will hear a good sermon, and will be able to get acquainted with some of the men in the synod. You will en joy it, and will bo encouraging the people of the Calvary church. If you want to enjoy your religion, all you hove to do is to exercise it. That is all you have to do to enjoy your health. We onco knew a wo man who seemed to bo well, she ate heartily, but sho did not excrciso a bit. She thought sho could not eg much as sit up, and sho didn't. All the neighbors thought thero was nothing the matter with her. She did not exercise a bit, and she did not enjoy her life, and did not let her people enjoy theirs. Now, if sho had just dono something through those years sho lay on her bed she would have had some good time. When sho got to trying, she got up directly, and today sho is all right. Now if wo would but know that re ligion is to be exercised. A bnby kicks and stretches becauso it feels good. A man who has been away from home for a time conies back and likes to get to work, becauso ho feels good, the exercise feels good. Tho same is to bo said of your relig ion. Begin easily if you will, but begin. Start out by going to the house of God and see if you do not gain some strength, and then go on to other things. Do not bo afraid of doing; something, for your joy will bo in tho doing. And what we like to do we will not think is hard. And that is what will make the church go. Remember if we want tho church to go, wo aro the church and must do the going. Is the next generation in the Salem community going to bo like the present grown generation That is a thing for you all to think about. If they aru it is because you have dono for them as your fath ers did for you in tho way of the church, which is the power for good influences in the crmnuinity, and if they aro not, it will be becauso they did not come under that influence as tho older ones did. Sometimes wo are Inclined to think there' aro moro drawbacks and pitfalls now than thero were then, but when wo como to points, there, was probably as many difficulties in tho days of our fathers as thero aro today, though, of course, they may havo been different ones. All those who aro at tho work, will bo glad to seo any who will help. 8 Dakota City, Noli. Eg
