1t has often been said that it would
be perfectly easy to have numerously
signed, a petition asking that almost
any man in given community should
be hanged, because there are a great
many people who never refuse to sign
a petition if it costs them nothing; but
if one were to add to the petit
ton that each signer should contribute
twenty-five cents to purchase the rope
to do the hanging with, nobody would
sign it. This illustrates the way some
men look at these things 1t is easy
enough to get them to sign a petition
for rural free delivery route but
they hesitate if they find out that one
of the conditions for securing such SER
vice is the payment of $3.50 for the
purchase and putting in place OF a
suitable United States mail box to re-
ceive the freely delivered mail of the
family for years to come. This is one
of the points at which the require
ments of the postal department will
have to be met. We call the attention
of readers living along proposed routes
to it, in order that if they desire the
service they may be prepared to have
the box put up. Of course no family
living along route will be obliged to
put up box. 1t can still receive the
family mail at the postoffice as before
| if this is preferred, but no route will
be established unless, among Other
things, it serves 100 families Oh
more, who are willing to meet this re
auirement which has been found neces
sary to facilitate the delivery and col
lection of the mails along such routes

FOR A SERIOUS CRIME.
Hancock County Man Under Arrest
for Murderous Assault.

Fort Dodge, Oct. 23.-Lodged in the
county Jail at Forest City is N. D. Pc
terson, Scandinavian of middle age,
who is being held until the next term
of court for one of the most heinous
crimes on the criminal calendar.
Peterson is widower who lived
with his two daughters, aged respect
lively 16 and Is years of age. He has
been making his home at Corwith,
eighteen miles south of Forest City.
On Oct. 6 he was arrested for threat
ening to kill them. He had come from
work and found that his daughters
had neglected to prepare his supper
at the usual time, but had stayed at a
neighbours where they were visiting.
Their seeming negligence of his per-
sonal comforts SO enraged him that he
made the remark that if it occurred
again he would take club and kill
both of them. For this he was arrest
ed and lodged in jail. Upon his re-
lease he again caused demonstration
and this time his attack was directed
toward the younger of the two daugh-
tiers. Tie made a aesperate ATTEMPT

to criminally assault her, so it is re-
ported, and her stubborn resistance
saved her. 1t soon became noised
about that Peterson had been Intimate
with his elder daughter and number
of men concluded to rid the commune
ty of his presence. 1t was conceived
that the proper thing to do was to give
him a liberal coat of tar and feathers
and ride him out of town on rail. No
sooner said than done. He was cap
tured. taken to secluded spot, where
a quantity of hot tar awaited his arriv-
'al. A feather bed was ripped open
and after being covered with the tar
the feathers were applied in liberal
quantities. He was next allowed to
don his clothing, after which he was
put astride a rail and taken to the
outskirts of the town and told to never
come back Afoot he made his way to
Clarion, where he had relatives living.
He was taken in and an effort made to
remove as much of his sticky coating
as they could Filled with a spirit of
revenge upon the authors of his dis
comfort and disgrace, he resolved to
return and wreak vengeance upon
them. His return to Corwith was soon
| known and warrant was issued for
his arrest. He was taken to Forest
City for safe keeping, as Hancock
county has no county jail. His trial
at the next term of court will be on
the charge of incest

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fermen-
tation of the undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need a
few doses of Green's August Flower,
in liquid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter
with you. Get Green's Prize Almanac.

that there is matter there to be mailed.
The letters "U. S. NJ" on the box will,
when understood by the youth of the
vicinity, protect it against injury by
stoning and otherwise. The require
ments are that at least 100 families
must cause such box to be placed in
plain view and within easy reach Of
the carrier, on post 6X6 inches at the
bottom and tapering at the top to 4Xt
inches, five feet high above the ground
and near the side of the road SO that
the carrier can get at it without dis
mounting. The side bearing the .et-
tiers, "U. S. NJ" must be toward the
road. Each box has key for the
family whose mail is to be placed in
it, which will not open any other box
than that of the family. There is also
one master key that will open all the
boxes, and this is for the use of the

W. ]. Bryan made the first stop in his
tour of the State of New York at Yon.
kers at $50 He was cordially greeted
by quite a throng. The stop was for only
ten minutes. Mr.. Bryan warned his hear
ers against all private monopolies. He
declared that the republican party was
under so many obligations to the trusts
and its fortunes were so bound up with
theirs that no leader of the party dared
raise his voice against them. The poor
man. ne said, is coming to the democratic
party. because he wants chance in the
race for life. He believes in equal rights
to all and special privileges to none. and
he shads the democratic party in favor OF
that doctrine and the republican party
opposed to it. Mr. Bryan closed with an
appeal ~ the American people to let the
ilipinos work our their own destiny.
