MRS. SOPHIA L. LUITZEN CALLED Passes Away Saturday, Aug. 30, 1913, Dropsy and Advanced Age Being Cause of Her Death. SHE WAS MARRIED THREE TIM9S Leaves Husband and Thirteen Children to Mourn Her Monday Morning.

On Saturday, August 30th, occurerd the death of Mrs. Sophia Louisa Luitzen at her home in North Denison. Mrs. Luitzens had been in poor health for several months and was a constant sufferer from dropsy and on account of her advanced years very little could be done for her relief. Her children and many kind neighbors lovingly cared for her during her illness and made the last days of her life as comfortable for her as possible.

Mrs. Luitzens was one of those lovable German ladies who will not soon be forgotten by those who knew her best. She was a kind and loving mother and a true friend whose place cannot be filled. Mrs. Sophia Louisa Luitzen nee Krueger was born Oct.

28, 1838, at Nienburg, Hanover, Germany, where she lived until she was married to Mr. Conrad Homeier, who departed this life some forty years ago. In 1881 she, together with her three children, came to America and settled in Denison and later she was united in marriage to Mr. Hans Jansen, who passed away about twelve years after their marriage. In 1899 she was united in marriage to Tjack Luitzen, who survives to mourn the death of his beloved wife.

Besides her husband she leaves to mourn her death thirteen children, namely: Mrs. Fred Mundt, of Nishnabotny township Mrs. Win. Espolt and H. Homeier.

both of Whittier, Cali. Mrs. Fred Meyer, of Schleswig Mrs. John Heyes, who lives in Minnesota Henry Jansen, residing in Dakota Louie and Herman Luitzen, Mrs. Max Roeh, George Luitzen, Mrs.

John Hansen, Mrs. Nick Olderog, all residents at this place, and another daughter, Johannah, residing in Wyoming. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at the Lutheran church in this city, Rev. Wm. Frese officiating, after which interment was made in the Lutheran cemetery.

The Review joins with the friends of the bereaved family in extending sympathy in their hour of sorrow. Mr. and Mrs. P. D.

McMahon and little sons are expected to arrive in Denison Thursday or Friday. They have been spending the summer at San Diego, and the climate has proved so beneficial to Mr. McMahon's health that they thought best to dispose of their home here and take up a permanent residence at San Diego. Their many friends in Denison will be sorry to learn that they have decided on this move. ftaugh 4 fftrummer The Old Reliable Clothiers, Broadway Denison FALL GOODS ARE ARRIVING DAILY ANYTHING IN THE CLOTHING LINE We Invite Comparison in Quality and Price Cadillac 1914 The Standard by Which All Cars Are Judged We wish to announce to the motor public that we have just taken the agency (or the above car and solicit a demonstration.

TO REORGANIZE WEATHER BUREAU Shakeup tinder Way to Affect Every Station. complete reorganization of the weather bureau is in process, and it was said it would affect every station in the country, to say nothing of the effect of the change on commission merchants, farmers and others who are in receipt of daily weather maps which issued from forecasting stations. For some time inspectors have been visiting the various stations collecting data by which it Is hoped not only to improve the service and cause the daily forecasts to be more accurate, but at the same time introduce economies. Charles F. Marvin of Columbus.

has been appointed chief of the bureau. One of the important changes contemplated in the service is to issue a night map instead of a day one. This change from day to night, it is calculated. will save money because it will eliminate from many stations the duty of publishing a daily weather chart. Men longest in the service, however, declare that the night map is unlikely to be regarded as an improvement because it will reach the persons interested about twelve hours late.

HISTORIC DOCUMENT FOUND? May Be the Draft of Lecompton Constitution of Kansas. Milltown. N. looking over a bundle of papers which belonged to an uncle who died in Kansas, Justice of the Peace Joseph A. Ileadley of this place found what appears to him to be the original draft of the famous Lecompton constitution of Kansas, a document for which the authorities of that state have been looking for the past half century.

Mr. Headley has written to the secretary of state of Kansas telling him of the find. The Lecompton constitution was the first organic law of Kansas and provided for slavery. It was recognized by President Buchanan, but afterward supplanted with a new instrument that forbade slavery within the state. Rosebush Eighty Years Old.

St Fisher, a photographer, and Mrs. Carrie DuBois, who weighs 300 pounds, both bichloride of mercury patients, were treated successfully by a method that St Louis physicians now believe is an absolute cure for mercurial poisoning.

The two, who are neighbors, but have never met, have expressed mutual interest in one another's condition. Mrs. DuBois said that it was the reading of Mr. Fisher's condition in the newspapers that prompted her to swallow more than 110 grains of the poison. This is an amount, physicians say, sufficient to kill more than 100 men, but Dr.

Maurice Thompson and Dr. Walter Harrall predict that she will recover, after the application of hot water bottles and electric globes and the injection of saline solution or sodium carbonate every three hours. Stockholm district No. 1. Irene N.

For the week ending August 31, 1913. Des Moines, Iowa. Although the nights were cool the days were hot, making the average daily temperature about five degrees above the normal. The sunshine was excessive there being scarcely any cloudiness until Saturday afternoon, and there was practically no rainfall in the state until Sunday morning, and then only a few light showers in the northeastern counties. Corn is doing as well as could be expected under present conditions.

In the southern part of the state, where the drought has been most severe, much of the early planted corn is dry enough to cut, and the binders are at work in some fields. Under the effects of the rains of two weeks ago late corn is filling out fairly well, and in the northern counties where the rainfall has been the most plentiful the crop will be fully up to if not above the average of past years, but elsewhere the present dry hot weather is forcing it toward maturity too rapidly for the best results. The dry weather is also damaging apples, pastures and late potatoes, and delaying plowing. In southern districts wells are again failing and pastures are brown. In some sections stock is being given almost full winter rations.
