Mr.. Major, the famous cement man, of
New 1Ork, explains some very Interesting
facts about Majors Cement.
The multituceS who use this standard arti-
Gle know that it is many hundred per cent.
better than other cementS for which similar
claims are made, but great many don't
know why. The simple reason is that Mr..
Major uses the best materials ever diScoV-
cred and other manufacturers do not use
them, because they are too expensive and
do not allow large profits. Mr.. Major tells
us that one of the elements of his cement
costs 1915 pound, and another costs S2.65 a
gallon, While a large share of the so-called
cementS and liquid glue on the market are
nothing more than SiXteen-cent glue dis
solved in water or citric acid and, in some
cases, altered slightly in color and odor by
the addition of cheap and useless materials
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents bottle, and when q dealer
tries to sell substitute you can depend
upon it that his only object is to make
larger profit.
The profit on Majors cement is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement.
And this is doubly true in view Of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the benefit
of Mr.. Majors advertising, which now
amounts to over 5000 month, throughout
the country. Established 1876

IF BRYAN WERE ELECTED.
Postmaster General Smith Points Out
the Evils to Enkue mmedia iafeIN

Osthhster GeneraI smith Points Out
the Evils to Ensue Immediately.
Postmaster General Charles Emory
Smith indorses the general verdict that
the chief danger to the Republicans in
the present campaign consists in the
widespread feeling of overcOnfidence,
Postmaster General Smith paid a fly
ing visit to New York the other day.
and while there his opinion was asked
in regard to current political topics
He declared that he had been shocked
at the self satisfied way in which men
who ought to be taking an active part
in the compaign were sitting around
telling each other that it is no use to
work, as the election of Mr.. Mckinley
is u foregone conclusion. Mr.. Smith
has found these men in all parts of the
country.
rs there anything in Bryan's speech
Of acceptance to which you care to re-
ply" was asked.
There are two points especially that
ought to arouse universal attention and
y
said Mr.. Smith. "rhe first is his un-
qualified declaration that in case he is
elected he will Immediately summon
congress i'll extra session, which in
wolves immediate presentation of all
the dangers of Organism. The second
is his direct and bold declaration to
AguinaldO and the Tagals practically
to continue their warfare, because if
they can continue it until he is elected
president they will succeed in their OBJ
ject"
How would Bryan's election be
more Immediately dangerous than it
would have been four years ago?'
'Mr. Bryan's declaration that in the
event of his election he proposes to call
congress Immediately together in extra
session for the purpose of dealing with
questions which he would present to it
is practically declaration to the coun-
try that all the menace that is involved
in his election would be Immediately
precipitated upon the cOuntry-that we
will not even have Il respite until De
cember, but it will come just as soon
as he is president His election would
Immediately destroy public confidence,
and that blow would be all the greater
in view of his declaration that within
four months from that time he would
have assembled congress together,
which would of course be Bryan con-
gress If there was Bryan president"

ATTEMPTED HOLD UP.
Two Young Men Defeat the Purpose OF
Two BurIy TTamps.

Floyd Grill and Frank Cummings,
two young men living east of the city,
were held up Saturday night about
midnight at the east end of High
avenue by a couple of burly tramps.
The hold-up was rather an attempt,
however, for the young men "caught
on" to the purpose of the ruffians
and whipped up their horse with suf-
ticient energy to get away from the
fellows. The young men continued
their course east to the turn in the
road, crossed north to the Iowa City
road and came back to the city and
reported the matter to the police.
Officer O'Brien went to the scene of
the trouble and on looking around in
the vicinity of the attempted hoId-up
stumbled over the fellows lying fiat
in a sort of ditch at the side of the
road. They were evidently waiting
to attempt an entrance into some of
the residences in that part of the
city. When discovered they pre-
tended to be in a beastly state of in
toxication and would answer nothing.
officer O'Brien, however, used his
discourager of hesitancy and the fell
lows were marched to the city bastile
at the point of gun. They soon re-
gained perfect soberness and in
pleading for their liberty stated that
they belonged to the Forepaugh-Sells
Brothers circus and that they were
just waiting to catch the trains
through this city en- route to Mar
shalltown. They may be the parties
who went through the Montgomery
and Dunsmore residences. Officer
O'Brien is to be congratulated on his
plucky and determined stand before
the fellows and the successful capture.

The book has about 400 pages. 1t

BIRTHS AND DEATHS.
Variations of Population as Told by
Official Records.

The statistics of the births anG
deaths in the county for the past year
have been made up in the Office OF
County Clerk r. K. Davis and the
following figures are cleaned from
the reports.
There were 81 births in the county
during the year 1899; 1856 of these
were males and 2S6 were females.
There were seven pairs of twins born
OF all this number but three were
named dewey"
There were only 200 deaths re-
ported for the year, but the clerk has
reason to believe that the report is
not complete. For instance there was
but one death reported for the city
of Oskaloosa during the months OF
January and February, and but 2f
deaths are reported from the city for
the entire year. OF the 200 deaths
reported lis were males and SO were
females.

turned Friday morning.

Two Men Killed at Hedrick Saturday
Evening.

Hedrick, June 3O.-Two men were
instantly killed by Narrow Guage
passenger train No. % at the cross
ing about block west of the station
here this evening. The train was
slowing up for the station about $50
when two men in a farm wagon
started across. They paid no heed
to the warning signal, and drove
right in the face of death. Engineer
Ed Mohr, of Burlington, was at the
throttle, but the distance was too
short to stop the train, and the en-
CINE struck the wagon with full mo-
mentum.
Both men we're thrown out, the
wagon was demolished and one of
the men, Oliver Mckinney, was killed
instantly. The other, whose name
could not be learned, died within a
few minutes. Conductor Willis

accident and the dead bodies were
taken in charge by the station agent.
