hunter who pays his taxes with wolf scalps,
wolf scalps being legal tender to the extent
Of So each. The other day he found a
hole in which were eleven wolf pups. He
says it was the largest litter he ever got
in Iowa. He thinks the wolves were
hybrids, cross between bigtimber wolf
and a coyote, which is possible, but Inn

ENTERTAINED BY JUNIORS.

The graduating class of the High
school was given a reception Friday
night by the Junior class, at the
school building. The affair was
greatly enjoyed by all. The rooms
had been tastefully decorated with
flowers and leaves, and fountain of
city water and bowl of fruit punch
were pleasing features of the occasion,
while banquet was served later
Games were played, program carried
out, and a good social time was had,
in which the teachers present joined
heartily. The twenty-seven Juniors
and fifteen graduates were all at
tractively dressed and the sight was a
pretty one.
The post prandial speeches were a
new and enjoyable feature of the oc-
casiOn.
Prof. Kenaston had been chosen as
toast master, and introducing the
speakers created much amusement
and said many encouraging words.
Principal Searles toasted the "two
classes" in a speech which pleased.
''The Juniors" was the subject of good
talk by Geo. Beise, of the graduating
class, and VIM. Leidlooff responded
for his class, creating much fun at the
expense of the Seniors. Miss Bonetta
Cornish, of the outgoing class, spoke
in honor of the teachers who have
been guiding the steps. This and the
final words by the toast master sent
all home from an evening long to be
remembered by the young people.

Died.

Mrs. Mary T. Kerns, of Spring
Island, died az the hospital in this
city Friday from the result of an
abcess. She had been sick for some
six weeks from it, and was taken to
the hospstal last Tuesday afternoon
for treatment. A sad feature in
connection with her death is the
absence of her husband. He went to
the north part of the state about
three weeks ago to hunt up new To-
lation and it is not known just where
he is at present. He last wrote from
Brainerd. Mrs. Kerns was daughter
of Rev. Powell, one of the first Metho-
dist preachers in this section. She
leaves eight children. The funeral
services were held at her late home
at Spring Island at IL o'clock Satur-
day forenoon.

A DlSGRACEFUL AFFAIR.
A Child Supplied With Liquor, Be-
Comes Drunk i'm School,

Thursday morning an eight year
old boy in MissEvaSmith's room at the
Pleasant Grove school was taken sick
with nausea. Doctors were sent for,
but before they arrived the janitor
went into the room and at once no.
ticed that the boys breath smelled
strongly of whiskey. Supt. Kenaston
soon arrived and became convinced
that the boy was drunk, and when the
boys father arrived to take him home
there was no attempt to deny the
fact. The father, who keeps saloon,
was much chagrined over the affair,
and said that the family had never
allowed the boy to have liquor. His
bartender had given it to the lad be-
fore, and he thought that he must
have done it yesterday. The boy said
that he had only had beer. When he
went into the warmLroom it made him
sick, and the consequence of his sick
ness was that the pupils in the room
had to be dismissed for the forenoon.
1t is criminal offence to supply
liquor to minors, and the bartender,
if he is the guilty party, will escape
lightly if he gets off with the talk
which the angry father probably
gave him.

City Engineer M. B. Haynes Friday
procured warrants for the arrest of G..

two charges, the first being the
alleged tapping of the water service
pipe on Sixth street without permits
sion from the board of public works,
contrary to sec. 6, ord. I; and the
other for digging in the street with
out permission. Masters and Nc
Laurin have not taken out the 800

receive no permits. The validity OF
the license will now be tested in the
courts.
