Much Credits due to the present
board of waterworks trustees, for the
interest they have manifested in the
building of the waterworks and
electrci light plants. Their efforts
for the good of the city have been
untiring, even to the neglect of their
own private business. 1t can with
truth be said that the trustees have
built the works, and that they have
done SO successfully the plants them
selves testify. The expense of put
ting in the plants will be much less
than most of our citizens anticipated,
and outsiders who are conversant
with the cost of public works of
similar import, are profuse in their
assertions that Napoleon has the best
waterworks and electric light plant
combined nthe state, for the money
That is saying much, but we believe
it to be true.

Perhaps you would not think so,
but very large proportion of dis
eases in New York comes from car
lessness about catching cold," says
DIR. Syrus Edison. 1T is such a sim
Pile thing and SO common that very
few people, unless it Is a case of
pneumonia, pay any attention to a
cold. New York is one Of the health
lest places on the Atlantic Coast and
yet there are great many cases of
catarrh and consumption which have
their origin in this neglect of the
simplest precaution of every day life.
The most sensible advice is, when
you have one get rid OF it as soon as
possible. BY all means do not neg
lect it, DIR. Edison does not tell you
how to cure a cold but we will. Take

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, March 16.-My last
bulletin gave forecasts of the storm
wave to cross the continent from 18th
to 22nd and the next will reach the
Pacific coast about the 23rd, cross the
western mountain country by close of
cath, the great central valleys 25th to
27th and the eastern states 28th.
This will be a severe and what is
often termed the equinoctial storm.
There is no regular date for these
equinoctial storms and they may oc-
cur at any time from 18th. to 27th of
March or September. Planetary in
fiuences must be taken into the esti-
mate in order to ascertain the true
date of the equinoctial storm.
This storm will occur during cold
period of March and although mild
weather will accompany the storm, ,es-
pecially onits south side, the temperra-
ture will drop back to cold following
it and q cold wave, approaching to the
blizzard kind in the northern states,
may be expected to follow the warm
wave of the storm dates given above.
This storm will cause heavy rains
in many parts of the country and fol-
lowing these rains frosts will go unus-
ually far southwark.
The warm wave will cross the west
ern mountain country about 23d, the
great central valleys 25th and the
estern states 27th. The cool wave will
cross the western mountain country
about Goth, great central valleys 28th
and eastern states 3Oth.

Another Old Pioneer Gone to His
Rest.

AOOtsOs
1t becomes the sad duty to chroni-
Gle the death of another old pioneer,
in the person of Theobolt Bolley,
who was born in Bavaria, Germany,
March 18th, 1906, and died in America,
March 10th, 1895, aged SO years and
3 days. He came to America in 1S42;
he was married to Mary SCHNEIDER in
the 1897. They lived happily together
until the year 1886, when she depart
ed this life, four children being left
to mourn her loss. He married again
in 1842 to Mrs. Dora Fender. Unto
this marriage there were five child
rem born. They live happily together
until the year 1894, when she too
passed away, leaving one son from
his first marriage, one son and daugh-
ter from his second marriage. Six
children died before he passed away,
leaving now thirty grand children
and 46 great-grand children, and two
great-great-grand children. He was
a member of the German Reformed
church nearly llhis life time. AS the
friends stood around the casket and
beheld his face for the last time
they thought of that father, and hus-
band; the constant friend is gone;
how sweetly he sleeps the last sleep;
he has closed the eyes that have
shed the last tear, laid the hands on
bosom that has heaved the last sigh;
as a father how gentle, tender and
patient, how anxious he was for the
welfare of his children, but caImy
and quietly the sun of his life went
down and with him the battle of life
was over. His funeral was preached
by Rev. Schaad from the passage
of scripture found in first book of
Moses, Al chapter and 9th verse; af-
ter which the funeral possession
formed and the remains was laid
to rest in the grave yard at New Ba-
varia.
You have laid down the cross dear father,
The crown appears in view,
No more will tempest gather,
Or sorrow thee pursue. !.
Safe, safe within the harbor,
! In you bright land SO fair,

JOURNALISM IN OLDEN DAYS.

The editor of the Trimghar Bell in
duced Dixie" Dunbar, a printer well
known throughout the Northwest, to
give an account of himself and some
"reminiscences of early days as a printer
in this part of the country, and Dunbar
"set up thefollowing for the Bell:
An old typographical tourist Dixie
DunbaD dropped from side door Pull
man into Primghar Friday morning.
His shoes were wrong font and italicised,
his wardrobe was pied and squabbled,
and space of several pleas remained to
be filled in his stomach. After filling
the required space at a restaurant he re-
lated some of his early experiences in the
printing business and his tour among the
Iowa printers in the early days. He
went at the trade in 1S45 in Canada. At
that time the sheepskin pad used to dis
tribute the ink over the form was giving
place to the glue and molasses roller, the
old Foster hand press was used for all
purposes from printing a business card
to sale bill, and the material in most
country offices was limited The "crow' s
foot" the "sheep's foot" and the points
used on the old hand press, are new terms
to the modern printer. Subscription
price was taken in wood. potatoes or
turnips, and the price of advertisements
taken out in store clothes, groceries, etc.

with Young & Vestal at the helm. LATE

WOOD GUILTY OF MEAN PRAC-

Deadwood, s. d., Special, Sept. 2l.-
Judge Plowman, of the Eight judicial
circuit court, yesterday requested all
the attorneys Of Lawrence county ba r
to be present at the circuit court at
8 o'clock this morning. At the stated
hour nearly all Of them were on hand,
and Judge Plowman stated that he
wished to call the attention of the
bar to a matter that had been a
source of annoyance to him in the
past. He stated that great many
times ,clients in his court had even
come to his house at midnight and
had made complaints against certain
mem bers Of the bar, charging in some
cases enlightenment. 1t had frequent
ly reached his ears that certain at
torneys had not only not fairly and
justly represented their clients in
court, but had actually been guilty of
selling out to their opponents, and he
wished the members Of the bar to or
ganize bar association for the pur-
pose Of maintaining the honesty and
integrity of the bar and to relieve him
of the responsibility. A committee
was appointed for the purpose Of
framing a constitution and bylaws
for bar association.

Jerry Simpson said the other day
that he was 81 years old. "There is
not grey hair in my head" said he;
"and two years ago my mustache was

But Mr.. Simpson is fast breaking
down. Like all our leading Populists,
he works hard for the cause. The
Peoples Party leaders do not take
trip to Yurrup; they do not 60 visiting
for their wives health; they do not
retire. from politics; they do not
maintain mastery silence on both
sides of the money question.
The Populist leaders are in the field.
They take bold stand. They are
fighting hard, pay or no pay. They
are making themselves felt in the
fight; and the only way the subsidized
press can head OFF, their influence is
to circulate falsehood, as the Asso-
ciated Press did the other day, when
it stated that PETER had declared war
against silver coinage.

non-committal silence, the Populists
are in front, fighting the money! pow

fChlcagO TimeS-Herald Idly

IL
1t is expected that the twenty-sixth
annual meeting Of the Fire Under
writer's Association of the North
west, to be held at the Auditorium
Wednesday and Thursday of this
week, will prove of more than ordi-
nary interest. Years ago, in the
early days Of it's organizat ion, the as
ISOLATION had executive powers and
it's mandates were felt in the fire in
surance circles throughout the entire
country. But as such it was not a
success, and the association was con-
verified into an instructive club for
the discussion of live topics of peril
nent interest to the business.
Last year the annual address was
delivered by w. j. Littlejohn, Yves tern
manager Of the North British and
Mercantile Insurance Company, who
openly charged that the destr uction
of immense values in the northwes t.
ern lumber districts by fire could be
directly traced to lumber pirates who
took this method Of covering their
stealings from the government. Fol
lowing so closely upon the terrible
forest fires of Wisconsin and Minneso-
ia, in which hundreds of lives and
millions Of dollars Of property we're
destroyed. these structures caused not
only a wave Of excitement to sweep
over the country, but resulted in re-
awakening inves tigation which has
been the means of fixing the blame
for the Hinckley fire and the recovery
Of large sums Of money from the those
who sought to defraud the govern
ment. Suits are now pending in 9th
er cases for the recovery of nearly
$l,OO0.000 Of property, and in one in
stance verdict was given in a lower
court for $500, 900 against prominent
Minnesota lum bermen
Mr.. Littlejohn, whose address was
so widely read and commented upon
at the time, was instrumental in Sc
curing valuable evidence for the COM
missioners having in charge the
prosecution of the case, and later,
during the conven tion, he was elected
to the presidency. That the meeting
this week will be a success is largely
due to his eXertions Between $40

present to listen to the papers pre-
pared and take part in the discus
