Prominent Iowans in Town.

Governor Frank D. jackson, who has
been laboring increasingly on the stump
through his own state for the success
of republicanism, arrived at Hot
Springs with his wife and Judge N. M.
Hubbardand wife, of Cedar Rapids and
will remain at the Evans for a few DAYS
resting his voice and recuperating This
strength. Gov. Jackson is one of the
most popular men in the west and our
citizens should try to make his visit
here IL of pleasure and delight. That
he thinks a great deal of Hot Springs
is evidenced by the fact that he sent
his mother here for several weeks this
summer to take baths and she was
greatly benefited. He is all the better
pleased since he has seen it. He pre-
diets a rousing republican majority in
Iowa this fall.

The NASHVILLE Students.

From Tuesdays Daily.
About a 800 house greeted these
famous colored minstrels at the opera
house last night, and the show given by
them is said by all to have far out
classed any like exhibition of that sort
ever given here. Their singing was
first class, especially that old-time
favorite "Oh Hail us Ye Free" which
was used as an opening. All their
other selections were encored and the
program was heightened out until quite
late. Their specialties were immense.
The slack wire performance. the SER
pentine dance, johnson and Smith, the
banjo kings, and the wooden wedding
We're performances of extraordinary
merit and brought out rounds of
applause while many went home hold
ing sore sides from excessive laughter.
Their jokes were new and while some
of them were hardly in keeping with
the propriety expected of university
students, yet one had to look for them
in Il show of that character. They
would probably meet with a much
larger house on 81 return trip.

One OF the most remarkable men we
have ever seen is r. III. Pitcher. the
gentleman who is in the city soliciting
insurance for the Masonic Aid society.
He appears to be a man about sixty
years of age. bat in reality was
ninety on the 18th of September. He is
as mindless Il man of fifty and talks
with as much vim and business as tho
just in his prime. He cast his first vote
for Andrew jackson in 1926: served all
through the Mexican war and also the
civil war. and was IL of seventeen left
OF II hundred and foruofthe Virginia
company of which he was captain. He
is the father of Joseph Pitcher of
Custer and is without doubt one of the
best preserved men of his years in the
country. He spent thirty years OF his
life steamboating on the lower Mississ-
ippi asld two years in South Africa
hunting diamonds in the famous
Kimberly mines. 1t is certainly a treat
to hear him tell his experiences.

Prof. Killing has had his faith in
humanity rudely shattered and the
professor is an optimist too. His heart
is heavy and he at last recognizes the
total d%epravity of mankind. Henry
feiker did it. Felker is willy and art
ful-not that the professor is gullible,

known each other fifteen years or
more. Felker came to town Il few
weeks ago alleging to be the representa-
tive of the Andrews school furnishing
house of Chicago and of course looked
up his old friend whom he was vcry
glad to see. In the course of CONVEX
sation Felker told the professor that
his company had ordered him to Sun
dance that evening and that he was a
little short of the required transpor-
tation fund and asked him if he would
lend him seven dollars until he arrived
at his destination where he would cash
a check from his firm which he present
ed for the professors inspection. Prof.
King, for ''auld acquaintance sake
kindly accommodated him confidently
expecting an early remittance. He is
still expecting. Last week it transpired
that this was but one of Felker's
offences. He met Geo. Field, manager
OF the hulst ~ Price lumber yard and
asked him to endorse IL check for $50
from Il we'll known Denver business
man whom Mr.. Field knew to be good.
Inc check was caShed and in due time
was returned. unhonored as the sigma

developed the fact that he WAS
a representative of the Andrews
company and rs the desks belong to it
the company wants the 50 or the desks.

he hired a livery team which he drove

again. AS yet MIR. Fclker has not re-
ncwed his acquaintance with any of
