John TTtmbwiH Barcroft, who the

one of the most eminent and distin
guished lawyers of Des Moines, died in
that city January 20, of paralysis. He
was born at Cadiz, Ohio, May 13, 1824.
He came to Des Moines in 1865. The
writer recollects Mr. Barcroft as a young
man and Us teacher in the "little brick
school hansel" at the edge of the village.
He had a quiet, unassuming manner, bat
the urchins and all others, understood
that he was strong physically as well as
mentally, and now cherish his memory
all the more because they were pratically
held to the principle that "Order is
Heaven's first law," and, under his kind
guidance made good progress in their
studies. We have no doubt that hia

Sunday afternoon last, at 3:40 o'clock.
at the home of the family northeast of
the city, Harriet L, wife of Joseph H.
Drinnin, suddenly departed this life.
The immediate cause of death waa the
rupture of a bloodvessel near the heart
and death was instantaneous, one gasp
for breath being the only seeming strug
gle. She had been afincted occasionally
for some time with stomach trouble, but
this was not regarded aa serious. For
the past two weeks, she had had the
grip, but had apparently improved, and
was up and around Friday, also Saturday
from 11 o'clock till o. Even Sunday,
after dinner, lying on her bed in a room
adjoining the dining room, the door
being ajar, she talked and laughed with
the family, and started to arise and
herself, but a sudden weakness
upon her, and in a few momenta came
the end.
Deceased was born in Vermont, March
18, 1842, her maiden name Harriet L.
Pomeroy. She waa married to Joseph
H. Drinnin at Toulon, Stark county,
Ulincds, September 2, 1S6& They came
to Nebraska, March L 1883.
She leaves, to mourn the-departnre of
a loving wife and mother, her husband,
and their children, Mrs. Eliza Stevenson,
Samuel P., George W, Eveline G-, and
Plessie M. Drinnin r alee Mrs. Emma
Sewell of Independence, Kansas, and
Harry Hickok, the last two, her children
by a prior marriage, Harry being a mem
ber of the household here since July last
While Mrs. Drinnin departed this life
without any special words of good-bye to
the members of her family, her whole
life, which was au inspiration of good
ness and truth, will be au enduring lan
guage engraven in the very sentiments
and thoughts of all those who had learn
ed to love or to honor her.
Mrs. Drinnin was a member of the
Congregational society of this city, and
funeral services will be held at this
church this Tuesday afternoon at 2
o'clock, Bev. Monro preaching the ser
mon procession leaving the residence
at 1 o'clock.
The Baptist Church.
The Baptist congregation, which has
been for some time without a regular
pastor, are, nevertheless, doing work that
seems to be well approved.
The former building, moved from
Rummer street, enlarged and improved,
would not be recognized by its oldest
acquaintance, at least at first sight
There are two distinct rooms, the lec
ture room being on the north side of the
assembly room, with sliding windows be
tween for joining the two when occasion
offers.
Bev. C. W. Brinstead of Omaha, the
state missionary for the Baptists, held
services morning-and evening-
The CongregatJonalists adjourned for
the morning, and in a body attended the
services.
Bev. Brinstead's text was Matthew,
rvi:18, And I say also unto thee. That
thou art Peter, aad upon this rock I will
build my church: and the gates of hell
shall not prevail against it Also, IT
Corinthians, vi:L We, then, as workers
together with him. The theme of the
sermon waa that God had his plana of
work, and one of these was that man
should assist in the work for men. The
house of worship illustrated the princi
ple. In its construction there were
wood, stone, iron, glass, etc. God's work
was essential in all these, he made them
in the crude farm, the wood.in the growth
of the forest; stone in the quarry; iron
in the earth, and he doubtless could have
built the church as it stands; but he did
not choose to do so. His plan is that
man shall exert himself, his physical
strength, hia planning ability, bis desire
for accomplishing good back of all. in
order that he may be perfected in hia life
upon earth, and thus fitted for divine
companionship. The idea of the two
passages of scripture, "God all and in
all,' "man a co-worker," permeates all
the relations of the Lord with mankind.
Mr. Brinstead then made a statement
aa to tha church, planing the value of the
property at something like $1,700, but
oa which there waa yet aa indebtedness
of f28&98L la a few aihntea, pledges
to the amount of $150 were made, and
we understand that at the evening ser
vices, $136 was added, leaving the building-
entirely paid for on the day of
dedication.
The ringing of the church balls last
night was welcome music to the ears of
Fullerton people- Welcome to church

The following appeared in the Omaha
World-Herald of Thursday::
Harry Callihan, who had been twenty
years an engineer on the Union Pacific
road and resigned two weeks ago hav
ing reached the age liaut fell under the
wheela of aa engine thia forenoon. Be

attempted to board a freight locomotive
that was bound for South Omaha, bat
slipped and oae of hia legs waa run over
above the knee. He waa taken to St
Joseph's hospital.
Callihan has a family and resides at
621 Pierce street
Callihan was this afternoon too weak
to undergo an operation on the maimed
leg and hia chances for recovery were
ooaaiderad problematical.
A correspondent of the Lincoln Jour
nal says hia right leg waa ground into a
ahapnlwss mass from the knee down.
The abort story of the old engineer to
the reporter was: "I thought I would
go oat to South Omaha thia morning
and sse if I could get a job at something
and aa I climbed on the bumpers of the
car my foot slipped and I felL Twsr
wheels of the car run over me and here
I am, dying, dying."
Later word says that he ia improving,
after the amputation of the injured (the
right) lag.
Mr. Callihan waa a farmer resident of
this city, and for several years engineer
on the switch engine in the EL P. yards.

Fourteen large volumes were received
from the bookbinder last Thursday.
These volumes are made from old mag
azines ripped apart and prepared by
Professors Britell and Weaver, shipped
to Lincoln and bound at the small cost
of 85 cents each, into volumes worth
several dollars each.
We listened to a very interesting ju
venile debate in Miss G. Schofield's room
last Friday afternoon, which waa the
main feature of their rhetorical exercisea.
The question waa: "Basolved. That
knowledge is more useful to man than
money. Affirmative, Edith Williams,
Susie Boen and Phil Echols; negative,
Nellie Evans. Hazel Stevens and Berate
Hudson. The affirmative side won.
Judges were: Miss Schofield, L H.
Britell and Peter P. Duffy.
A suit before Justice Curtis last week
is something out of the ordinary, so far
aa the service of telephone companies is
concerned, although it bears some resem
blance to suits against telegraph com
panies. B. H- Mosgrove claimed $110 in
a damage suit against the Nebraska Tel
ephone company. September 24 he was
informed by letter from a wholesale
house in Lincoln that be would be called
up that evening by phone to talk over
the matter. He went to the local opera
tor and left word as to where a messen
ger would find him, but it seems that the
night operator was not informed of this.
The message came but waa not delivered.
Two days afterwards Mosgrove received
a letter from the wholesale house stating
that as they had failed to reach him by
telephoae, they had employed another
man. Mosgrove's dsim. was that he was
out of employment a month and four
days and be asked judgment for the
amount he would have received had he
been employed. The justice gave Mr.
Mosgrove judgment for $50 and costs.
