PROSPECT FOR A PARK.
Let. Dodge Messenger.l

In 1896 when Mayor Bennett was a
councilman. Joseph Finney, who lives
Just west of the city. and is a large
land owner. made the statement to him
that il was his Intention to give the city
a tract Of land for park. Mr.. Bennett
in turn made known the intentions of
Mr. Finney to Z. l.. Granger. who was
thsi mayor, and in accompany they drove
out to the home of Mr. Finney and the
three went over the land which he
promised To deed TO the city for park
purposes. The matter of making out

extending from the brick plant of the
Fort Dodge clay works south. OF all
the beautiful sites adjacent to Fort
Dodge for a city park the face of the
hill on the west side of the river is the
most valuable. Mr.. Finney at one time
made his offer conditional that the city

and replaced IN the spring. To one who
has never visited the land in question il
has the appearance of very steep hill.
on the contrary, the ground consists of
a series of natural benches which. with
a small outlay of capital, can be made
the finest park in this part of the state.
This is a feature most to be appreciat-

tribution If necessary. The meeting at
Svinton Thursday was SHINY attended,
one reason for this being that an i'm
preston got abroad that it was Rry-
an meeting. This is probably correct,
as the chairman of the county central
committee remarked that Bryan and the
Chicago platform was endorsed. There
is no doubt but what this impression
kept good many gold democrats away.
The absence of any democrats from the
German townships undoubtedly prove
this true. A number of well-known
democratic party workers We're present.

who seemed to be, with the organizing
agent, the leading spirits. A number of
the lesser lights of Ninton We're present.
The attendance was so slim the agent
hardly got more than enough to pay
travelling and hotel expenses.

CARING FOR HER HANDKERCHIEF.
Difficulties Encountered by the Average
Woman Without a Pocket.

Passing the understanding of man is
the manner in which the average wo-
man disposes of her handkerchief. or
doesn't dispose of it, Since pockets
went out her purse and handkerchief
have caused her infinite trouble. The
amount of mental and physical energy
that has been wasted on them would
have reformed the world if otherwise
concentrated and directed. 1t is all on
account of these trifling objects that
woman doesn't get off the car the way
man insists she ought. II is for the
same reason often that she let her
skirts act as street sweeper.
The woman who does not carry her
handkerchief in her hand along with
her purse, papers. Il key and various
other more or less essential articles
has ways Of bestowing il, according to
her individuality. A certain type Of
woman always puts hers in her belt,
but there are sub-types even in this
classification, and while one tuCks it in
neatly, with the ends forming an at
tractive chou, another stufts il in
Wad. and still another lets the ends
dangle carelessly. There may be
something however III ihe amount q
room that exists under the pelN 10 ac-
count. for the way ms hahdheTthieI II
inserted.
Some girls have fashion Of sticking
their handkerchiets into the front Of
their bodice. Others insert them III
their cuffs. These are usually girls VINO
have had glimpse Of army FOLK ana
dote on the military. Some women have
a pocket on the inside OF the upper
sleeve just large enough to hold bit
of fine cambria. But II handherchiets
are to be larger this winter. as the
fashion authorities say, this would
make an unsightly bulk on the arm.
The chatelaine pocket helps some
women out Of the difficulty, but for one
woman who is devoted to that useful
article there are a dozen who abhor ii
ana would rather have their hands en-
numbered forever than to free them by
such a device. NOW and then one sees
