Lemen at the Broadway Methodist church were of the most Impressive character, and the fact that ths congregations of the Baptist, Chris tian, Second Presbyterian and Trinity, Ep worth and Fifth Avenue Methodist churches abandoned their own morning services to unite with the Broadway church testified to the love and esteem in which the deceased was held. The church was filled to Its utmost capacity by those who were anxious to pay their last tribute to a woman whose life had been devoted to the work of the church and the uplifting of the orphan. The floral tributes were many and beautiful, and almost filled the chan cel. Rev. J. W. Calfee, pastor of the Broad way church, lu his aeiuiuu, paid a most beautiful tribute to Mrs. Lemen and her work at the Christian home. Rev.

REFERENCE MADE TO THE DAY IN OTHERS Character of the Man Eulogised and Lessons Which Nation Draws from His Life Are Pointed Out. While in but three churches of the city the pastors preached memorial sermons, tribute to the memory of President McKIn ley was paid generally by all the congrega tions yesterday, either at the morning or evening service, by reference to the day by the pastors In their sermons or by singing of the martyred president's favorite hymns, "Nearer My God to Thee" and "Lead, Kindly Light." Eloquent tributes to President McKinley were paid by Rev. O. W. Snyder, pastor of St. John's English Lulhersn church. Rev. James Thomson, pastor of the First Con gregational church, and Rev. Harvey Hos tetler. pastor of the Second Presbyterian church. In their memorial sermons. Rev. O. W. Snyder of St. John's English Lutheran church, at the morning service, took the text for his memorial sermon, Hebrews, 11: 4, "He Being Dead, Yet Speak cth." Saying in part: "Earth's first death was that of a martyr to principle and truth. The words of the text refer to him and declare that be yet peaks. Every martyr to truth and right contlnuea to speak. Our three martyred presidents, Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley yet speak. One year ago today there paased from earth, through a wound. In flicted by an assassin's hand, one of the most lovely of characters, the most devoted of husbands and the most kind and best of rulers the earth ever aaw. For a tribute to his memory we are here today. "We remember President McKinley today for what he speaks to us through his life and death. He tella us what can be accom plished by one born In humble circum stances, who la intelligent and upright. He teaches us that religion need not be sac rificed to enter a political life, but that It should be used to purify the latter. He teaches us the value of exalted patriotism and devotion to country. He demonstrates how the chief executive of this great nation by being faithful to duty and having in terests of the whole country at heart can win the respect and hearts of all nations and all classes. In hla death he speaks to us earnestly and imploringly against all forms of anarchy and that which lesdeth thereto. He therein demands that mani festation of governmental authority and power that will suppress and keep In sub jection the evil uprisings against divinely Instituted institutions. Proof of Patriotism. Rev. James Thomas, pastor of the First Congregational church, paid an eloquent tribute to the memory of president mo Klnley at the evening service. He spoke of the martyred president as the Christian patriot and said In part: "Mr. McKinley gave proof of his patriot Ism. when there could be no selfish pur pose inspiring him. He entered lntr the civil war as a private soldier. To tne on cer) war presents an opportunity for ad vancement and glory, but there la no such Inducement held out to him who enlists In the rankf. "In all his career as president, his pa triotism was never called in question. The Interests of party did not lead him away from his duty to the country. His country was at all times 9rst In his thoughts. "One effect, then, of the life of Mr. Mc Kinley is that he set up a standard of what the character of those must bewhorn the nation entrusts with the highest place In Its powtr to bestow. The country will demand that the chief executive be a pa triot before he Is a poll.Xlan. "McKinley, however, was more than a patriot; he was above all a Christian. In his life was emphasized the Christian home. He learned to pray at a Christian mother's knee. He received his education In a Christian college. The foundation of his character lay In the fact that he In his youth confessed Jesus Christ as hta Savior and ideal. He tried to walk in the footsteps of the Son of Man. The princi ples of his character were those of Christ. "McKinley laid stress upon the teaching of the word of God. His bible was his counsellor and guidei He was not ashamed to own that be believed In the power of prayer. He practiced the presence of God In his private and official life. His home life was beautiful and Chrlstllke. No breath of scandal ever smirched his repu tation. Mr. McKinley set high Value upon the house of God. He reverenced the sacred sanctuary and the holy Sabbath. "It Is a matter for devout thankfulness that his successor, Mr. Roosevelt, 'Is in these matters showing the same Christian example. God's house and book and Sab baths are held sacred by our present chief executive, and so long as we select men of this Christian type to fill our highest offices we may rely upon It that our great republic will endure, a land not only where peac and liberty are to be found, but where righteousness prevails." At St. Paul's Episcopal church, the rec tor, Rev. George Edward Walk, did not preach a memorial address, but in his sermon referred to the day and sug gested that In tribute to the memory of Preside!.. McKinley the congregation sing the martyred president's two favorite hymns, "Lead Kindly Light," and "Nearer, My Uod to Thee, which was done. Sot Soon Forgotten. Rev. Harvey Hostetler, pastor of the Sec ond Presbyterian church, in his memorial sermon last evening, said in part: "It scarcely needed tho suggestion of president or governor that today be ob served as a day of special honor to the memory of President McKinley. A gener ous and kindly people do not readily for get the men they have deeply loved, but It Is well that this memorial honor have the sanction and approval of those high In authority. "A year has brought some chsnges In the life and thought of our people.

The truest honor that can hs given our martyred president Is a citizenship that Is loyal and law-abiding." Plumbing and hratiag. 8txby A to a. Kotlec to Sabacrlbera.

Last week Governor Cummlna offered a reward for the apprehension of the mur derers of Joseph Buchanan, near Columbia, in Lucas county, nearly a year ago. As the result of the offer Lee WhlUach has , been held to the grand Jury without ball. accused of the crime. Buchanan lived alone in a cabin, and was reputed to be wealthy. Whltlacb bore a bad reputation and lived In the vicinity. Buchanan had been killed some time when the body was found. At that time suspicion pointed to Whltlach, but he was not Indicted. He waa out on parole at the time, as he had been sent to the penitentiary for burglary, but later he left the state, and, having violated his parole, he waa sent back to finish his term. The terra recently expired, and ha as immediately arrested again and held for the murder of Buchanan. It is claimed that new evidence has been secured against him. Suspicion was first directed to him from the fact that it Is alleged he ap proached others to go In on a deal to rob Buchanan. Will Help M. E. Hospital. The Des Moines conference of the M.

At the same time that Boles carried Dubuque county on the local liquor Issue, Henderson was able to carry the district, although by only a small majority. By temporizing on the money question and equivocal vagaries regarding free silver, Boles alienated mul titudes of those who were his most enthus iastic supporters In the contest for the governorship. The silver men were cold towards him because it was believed that he was secretly conspiring with the gold dem ocrats and cared only to get the votes of the free sllverttes, and his action In the late state convention corroborates that view. Dubuque county ts Colonel Henderson's home, where he la Intensely popular, having always polled, when he was candidate, a vote vaBtly in excess of his party strength. The republicans, too, will make a special fight in the Third district and are prepared to meet every move that Boles may make. Henderson Meets Committee. At a conference of the county chairmen of the central committees of the counties of the Third district held at Waterloo Sat urday it waa decided to poll the entire dis trict and see to It that every republican voter was registered and that ho voted on lection rty Speaker Henderson met with the committeemen and addressed them, out lining his position on the state platform by saying that he stood on It with both feet. one natural and one artificial. He said that combinations of Interests had been form ing for decades past, and they were related to every other business Interest, and that to deal with them properly was a big un dertaking and took time and careful gener alship. The idea that the trusts were a product of the tariff existing was wrong. Put Money In Lands.

The last statement of the Des Moines Clearing House association shows a decrease of $2, 000,000. The reports of the state and sav ings banks to the atrdltor of state shows a decrease of $1,423,913. The explanation of this falling off In deposits Is the fact that Iowa men of means, those who have had money In the banks, have been seeking Investments for their surplus funds sod, have been buying lands. Undoubtedly a very large sum of money has left the stste to seek Investment In North Dakota and Minnesota lands and In the Canadian wheat lands. But with this not a little has gone to nav for investments In mining and oil securities'. Two Indiana Ordained to Preach. HURON, S. D., Sept. 14. (Special.) Su- perlntenent W. H.
