eral of them were at his bedside
when he passed away. The deceased
had been a resident of Dakota coun

coming here from Weston, Iowa, in
18S3. Through life thrift and good
business judgment the deceased had
accumulated several hundred acres of
Dakota county land and hud one of
the finest farm homes In northeast
Nebraska. He had enjoyed the best
of health and was rugged and full of
energy, despite the fact of his seventy-four
years of age. He was a
staunch fribnd and a good neighbor,
a kind father and a loving husband.
He was married to Miss Fredriku
Enku ut Weston, Iowa, in 1883, just
before coming to Nebraska. To this
union twelve children were born, all
of whom survive him. He is also
survived by three children by a for
mer marriage. Besides his wife and
children, two brothers, Chris and
George, of Ashton, Idaho, and six
teen grandchildren mourn Ids un
timely end. All his relatives are
here and will be in attendance at
the funeral, which will be held Fri
day afternoon from the German Lu
theran church. The remains will be
laid to rest in tho Rose Hill ceme
tery. The deceased was born in
Germany but came to this country
while a still a young man.
Lutheran Church Notes
By Rev C. R. Lowe.
The young folks will meet at the
home of tho pastor next Friday foi
practice. Wo have some new music
to work on.
We are getting- our plans on foot
for our catechism class. We have
never dono before ns wo expect to
do this season. It is our Men tn
have tho boys and girla who take
this work to do some independent
work in tho bible this winter, of
course under our direction. And in
the spring when we can get. together
we will do the catechism work from
the text. The pastor will have to
depend on the parents to seo that
this work goes on. These plans are
simply an attempt to meet our purely
rural conditions to the best advant
age. What wo desire is to have the
eluss learn the story of creation, the
birth and death of Christ, the resur
rection story, several psalms, tho
creed, the commandments, and such
like things.
It is time for our annua every
member canvas for our local support.
I he canvas for benevolences ,vill In
made at the same time. Salem's be
nevolence budget for the coming
year is 5301, and Tor Emmanuel $70.
M. G. Learner, our delegate to the
U. S. C. convention at Washington,
received notice that ho was appoint
ed to a place on the nominating
committee. At that meeting all
committees were appointed in ad
vance, and all reports of standing
committees and others who had re
ports to make had their papers in
so the whole could bo printed and in
the hands of the delegates before
they left home. We say that, is a
tine system. It showy somebody who
is n good director of ull'alrs is at the
head of this convention.
Tho pastoi wishef. everyone would
take it upon himself to speak u word
for your church to your friends. W
do not hesitate to tell about the
good things of life outside of the
church. Why not say a good word
for tho services of the nuncturay.
DAKOTA CITY SCHOOL NOTES
J. Irwin Long, Superintendent
Hubbard visited our team Wednes
day of last week and was dcfer.td by
a score of 34 to 12, tho Dakota City
boys making T touchdowns nnd four
goal kicks, against Hubbard's two
touchdowns. Our boys showed for
the fourth Unit this season that they
knew football "by heart." Our back
field made n much better showing
than in former gomes, and if the
lino men could bo induced to nrnc-
tice more, it is safe to soy that Du
Kota City would have the fastest
team in some years.
Hubbard played a fine game con
sidering the practice they had.
The football boys and basketball
girls of Emerson will visit Dakota
City this Friday. Tho girls will
play our girls team after tho football
game in the evening. After the
basketball game tho high school has
planned a basket social for the sup
port nf nth Dakota's teams, and a
hearty . Iconic is extended, to nil.
Try an i take this event a success
and tell everyone to bring baskets
laden with eatables, and thi men m.d
boys' bring a fat bocketbook, nnd we
will do the rest (eating.)
