Three llandred Delegates
from Outside (It.
Preseat
With an attendance of delegates from
out of town the Iowa State Sabbath School
association convention assumed considerable
proportions yesterday. sMuch interest was
dlsplaxed In the proceedings and the result '
was, as one of the leading workers said,
there were three rousing meetings.
At the morning session the reports of
General Secretary B. F. Mitchell and Treas
urer J. F. Hardin showed that the asso
ciation had enjoyed a most prosperous year.
During the last year ninety-one county
conventions, seventy-four township con
ventions and ten denominational meetings
were held under the auspices of the asso
ciation. The treasurer's report showed that
all debts had been paid and that there was
a balance of $so0 on hand.
An interesting feature of the morning
program was an address by Prof. W. R.
Manning, who has recently entered the
work In Iowa as Held training secretary.
His topic waa "A Canadian In Iowa." He
said he was especially Inmpressed' "with the
fertility of Iowa and the intelligence of Its
people."
Part of the morning was devoted to sec
tional meetings, which were held In the
several churches and were well attended.
The parade of Sunday school children In
the afternoon was a novel feature and the
long column of children, carrying the con
vention pennants, presented a pretty sight.
The parade was headed by F. C. Rlker and
I'astor F. A. Case of the First Baptist
church, followed by Prof. Nordln'a band
from Lake Manawa. Major McFadde.n's
drum and fife corps also furnished music
for the parade. The children of the pri
mary departments headed each school In
a wagon gaily decorated with bunting and
convention streamers.
During the afternoon session the follow
ing greeting from the Nebraska association
In convention at work was received In a
telegram from President I P. Albright:
Over 500 delegates of Nebraska Sabbath
School asoclatlon. In session, send greet Inttf
and our prayers for your continued success
and Inspiring example. See Isaiah 56, 10
to 12.
In addition to the regular apportionment
on each county, about $W additional was
raised at the afternoon session for the pur
pose of promoting the field work of the
association.
Committees on resolutions and nomina
tions were named as follows by the several
districts:

B. Short; 24. J. R. Vance.
At the close of the afternoon session the
members of the field workers' section were
served supper at the First Christian church.
The features of the evening session were
the addresses by President A. B. Storms
of the Iowa Agricultural college a,t Ames
and Dr. Joseph Clark of Columbus, O.
President Storms took as his topic
Great Teacher," as exemplified in the life
of Christ.
Dr. Joseph Clark, who Is general secre
tary of the Ohio State association, which
he declared one of the .best organised
states In Sunday school work, spoke on
"Self Tralnlug of the Teacher," his ad
dress being most Interesting.
Officers for the ensuing year will be
elected this afternoon and the place for
next year's convention will be chosen. It
looks as If Davenport will get It. as, so
far. It appears to have no opposition.

jl His Klanrre.
Charged with obtaining W under false i
pretenses from her second cousin, to whom)
she was engaged to be married. Miss Kdilli f
Fltsloff, a good looking young woman fioni
Mason City, la., was taken Into custiMiy
Jin this cltv esterday afternoon and taki n
Irnck to Mason City last evening by SheniT
W. A. Hnldren of Cerro Gordo county. L..
B. Youngs, a travelittg salesman from lis
Moines, in whose company the young
woman was, was also taken Into custouy,
but later released.
The arrest was made at the Neumayer
hotel, where Youngs and Miss Fltsloff hud
registered as man and Wife two days ago
and where they occupied the same apart
ment. From Sheriff Holdren It was learned that
the young woman was engaged to be mar
ried to her second cousin and the latter
three days ago' secured the marriage li
cense. Miss FltxlofT, however, wanted a
day or so to prepare for the wedding and
Incidentally she needed a trousseau. To
secure the needed outfit the young woman
suggested to her fiance that he give her
$100. Now It happened that the young
man had only $45 In ready cash, but he
managed to borrow $50 more and he turned
the full amount of $!6 over to Miss Filxloff.
When the young man learned that his
intended had suddenly left Mason City for
Des Moines he became suspicious and con
fided hla suspicions to the authorities. In
quiry at Des Moines elicited the informa
tion that Miss FltxlofT had left there for
Council Bluffs iri company with D. B.
Youngs, a traveling man. When he learned
this the young man promptly decided that
he had been played for a sucker and filed
an information against Miss FitzlolT,
charging her with obtaining his under
false pretenses.

Full returns from every precinct show that
Mr. Perkins will have. sixty-eight and Gov

convention, while the vote of three pre
cincts which apparently gave Qovernor
Cummins forty-twe delegates will be con
tested on the ground that large numbers

The July Century Is well named a fiction
number because of the remarkable variety
of fiction; but there are other features
which make the number notable, among
them two articles of timely value and Im
ixirtance. a discussion of "Why Do the
Hoys t.eave the Farm." by L. II. Bailey,
director of the school of agriculture, Cor
nell university, and a full account of "Dry
Farming the West's Hope." by John L.
Cowan. Prof. Bailey's article Is not
based upon speculation, but Is a summary
of the facts and figures given him by a
number of Cornell university students In
their replies o sperifV questions as to the
reasons Influencing them to choose a life
work other than farming. Reading of ab
sorbing and vital Interest Is John L.
Cowan's story of the marvelous result
possible from scientific soil culture in arid
regions, without irrigation, lie gives In de.
tall the Tarts on which he bases his claim
that this new soil culture makes possible
the reclamation of Sni.flrKi.tmn acres of land
hitherto held worthless.

The Grand Trunk Pacific is an all-Canadian
line from the Atlantic lo the Pacific and

penetrate new territory In Athabasca and
northern British Cotumbla. Experts say
that It will open up the greatest wheat
growing region In North America. Hugh
D. Lumsden, chief engineer of the govern
ment section, describes the work so far
done on this part of the road and outlines
the engineering problems of the remainder.
Cy Warmnn gives a graphic account of the
