A YOUNG HERO.
The Boy who Rescued Another Is
Noted I'm several Ways,

A Clear Lake correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune say: Glenn Kon-
valinka, the child hero, who rescued
the 4-year, old son of County Treas
,rer Phillips from drowning in the
lake here, is probably the most re-
markable 6.year-old' in Iowa. He
learned to swim like an expert when
he was only 5. AS "a mere tot he could
ride wheel with more skill than
most men. Three years ago he
astonished the crowds at the racing
meets by his wonderful performance
on the track. Little Glenn is also a
crack shot. He uses tiny model OF
Parker shotgun, which weighs but
five pounds. Twenty gauge shells
are used in this dainty fire arm.
Small as it is, its killing power is
marvellous. With it Glenn is so pro-
ficient that at distance of sixteen
yards he made record of twenty
two out of twenty-five blue rocks and
at the same distance he has killed
nineteen out of twenty-five live birds.
He shoots with the ease and science
OF an old time trap shooter, and is
probably the youngest trap shooter
in the world, and if not the youngest
he is the champion.

DUE TO DRINK.
Downfall of Former Promising
Member OF Iowa Legislature.

Sioux City, Aug. 1i.-Four years
ago he was an honered and respected
member Of the Iowa legislature; yes
terday F. B. Manahan stood trem-
blingly in the Sioux City police court
and shamefully and tearfully CON
fessed himself common drunkard.
''I've tried to resist temptation, but
I can't" he declared. II am like
mad at times my head seems about
to burst with its terrible pains and ]
feel more like subject for the in
sane asylum than man to go out
and meet the world"
In 1895 Manahan was a resident of
LeMars, Iowa, where he was re-
spected by his fellow citizens and
deemed worthy of election to the state
legislature as Plymouth connty's
representative He was at that
time a successful lawyer with hosts
of friends and a happy family. He
possessed plenty of ability and had a
ready wit aud an eloquent tongue
that made him brilliant orator, and
in his short career in the legislature
hs gained much distinction as a
speaker on the democratic side of
the house.
Manahan's experience in the legis-
lature, however, marked the begin
ming of his downfall. The temp
tations that beset him during his
legislative experience were too much
for him and his transgressions against
the rules of sobriety caused worry
and grief among his legislative
friends. A little more than a year
ago he removed to Sioux City, hop
ing that new surroundings would
enable him to brace up. He con-

but last winter he labored at rough

Burglars Abroad.

Saturday night thieves entered the
Gruwell & 90. store effecting an en-
trance by rear window. They went
to the front of the store and took
three revolvers and some cutlery.
An attempt was made to open the
safe but without success. The value
of the goods taken so far as ascer-
tanned will not be great.
Thieves made entrance to the Reel
drug store on the north side about 10
O'Clock Sunday evening. Mr.. Reel
had been closed but few moments
when the robbers succeeded in get
ting in at back window. The fell
lows were heard by officer Martin
who came to the front of the build
ing not supposing burglars would be
trying that game so early in the even
ing. The thieves thus made good
their escape. They did not have an
opportunity to get away with any
goods.
Some sneak thief made away with
large part of chest of tools be-
longing to Contractor John Shaw
Saturday evening. The thief must
have been man who understood the
trade for he exercised good taste in
his choice of the tools taken and the
loss to Mr.. Shaw will be several dol
lars. The tools were taken from the
new Barnhart place on South First
street where Mr.. Shaw has been al
work. The thief entered the place
through the cellar and thence got in
to the room containing the chest OF
tools. A spade was used in prying
open the chest.
