TO CATCH FARMERS.
A New Scheme Inaugurated by
Travelling Stove Peddler.

A New Scheme Innugurated by n
Travelling stove Peddler.
Another example of game to catch
the farmers unawares turns up in New
ark township, Webster county. A trav-
cling stove peddler offered farmer a
new steel range for $50, agreeing to take
his old stove on the trade. He agreed to
the proposition, but when he came to
sign a note for that amount he thought
the paper seemed rather thick. On try
ing to separate it he found second note
underneath for 500. 1t was unquestion-
ably skin game, as the peddler hur-
riedly got possession of the blank notes
and refusing a cash offer of $50 on the
plea that his house would not agree to
it, bundled the range into his wagon
and drove off. Do not sign notes or con-
tracts for strangers.

A REMARKABLE CASE.
A Giant TumOr Removed from n
Woman in Des MOines.

"oihun IN Les uOIheS
Miss Emma Joliff, of Gilmore City,
who was taken to Mercy hospital in Des
Moines five weeks ago, suffering from a
giant tumor, which when removed
weighed 100 pounds, has fully recov-
cred from the operation performed
upon her and returned to her home
The operation was perhaps one of the
most difficult and wonderful with
which the surgical profession of the
state has been confronted for years,
and the success that attended the re-
moval of the tumor and the subsequent
restoration of the young woman to
health will rank as one of the most re-
markable of the time. When Miss Joliff
first arrived at the hospital her weight
was 1914 pounds. Before her departure
she was weighed and tilted the scales at
exactly 95 pounds.

The great coal strike in the state
that has continued for many weeks
seems at last to have been "called off,
on terms agreeable to both employers
and employees. At meeting of miners
in Des Moines resolution was adopted
almost unanimously that all mines be
allowed to resume work that will pay
IS cents a ton from now until April 1,
on condition that they will stop off ten
cents on the dollar and turn the same
over to an authorized committee, and
that all men get their work back again.
This practically ends the strike on the
miners terms, as the operators have
agreed to them.

HONEST NEGROES SENTIMENT.
Tells the Bluck Man What ii
Should 10.

There was quite an exciting opening ses-
sion OF the National Race council. which IL
composed OF negroes, now In session at
Nashville. Tenn. w, IL. Council OF Ala
bama was elected temporary chairman, and
In his address he said:
"The frequency OF violence to women is
alarming. We can not stop TO argue the nice
points as to the cause OF the coming OF
these incarante ficnds into rncc hitherto
with absso.uto immunity from them, nor
have We limo to plead that they are not
tho trusted servants Of our Southern homes.
nor eau we stop TO appeal from Judge
Lynch to the majesty OF the civil lave, but
wo must stamp out the crime.
Sufficient for us Is 1t to know that
these crimes are committed by negroes to
make us hang our heads In shame. and so
in sackcicih and ashes Let We restore that
sense OF security which white women felt
afty years ago In the presence OF our
fathers, under any circumstances, amid the
most forbldding environments. We must
make the humblest white woman in the re-
motest and widest part OF our country feel
az safe In the presence OF negro man as
angelic Eva did alone with her Uncle
Tom
Let US make the white woman OF this
land. and OF all lands, feel that our black
arms are ever ready. backed by hearts as
pure as truth, as gulleless as babes, 10 de-
fend their honor: that we arc willing TO
throw our black bodies between them and
their assaiiants, and shed our blood to tho
last drop in protecting them and hunting
down and executing these brutes In human
form"
This language aroused the Ire OF many
delegates. and, after long wrangle, reso-
luton was adopted declaring that the ac-
cusations were injurious and requesting
tho chairman to qualify his remarks.
Tho chairman refused to make any quail
flcatlons, saying he had spoken the senti-
nents OF bs heart. and. II more intellect.
uality was poured into tho judgment OF hls
| hearers, they would admit that he had spo.
| ken the truth.
