For New Justice.

Waterloo, Nov. LIN Waterloo town
ship new justice is to be elected next
Tuesday to take the place of j. w. Lo-
gan, resigned. The nominee, by petit
ton, for the place, is j. III. Hildebrand,
of the firm of Hildebrand & Fee.y, at
torneys, whose Office is on the second
floor of the Watts block on West Fourth
street. Mr.. Hidebrand graduated last
June from the law department. of the
Iowa State University and is in every
way competent to satisfactorily fill the
position if elected, and there is little
doubt Of that, as he is the only candi-
date. Mr.. Logan, whom Mr.. Hildebrand
will succeed. has held the Office for
many years and has dealt out justice
with an even hand. His age is such that
he felt the duties ought to fall on
younger shoulders.
Mr.. Logan having resigned, unless the
board of supervisors appoint Mr. Hide
brand to fill the vacancy, there will be
but one Justice in the township, c. %.
Kern, until Jan. l. 1902. In all proba-
bility the board Will appoint Mr.. Hide

Special to Times Republican.
Ackley, Nov. ELECTION Is exciting
very little interest here except on coun-

republicans on A. B. Baxter, the NOM
nee for supervisor, may have the effect
of bringing out fair vote. No actual
contest is being made on any other
county office by the democrats.

That Tired Feeling.

''There's no doubt about it." says a
prominent vegetarian, shat for endur-
ance, for hard work, vegetarianism is
the only thing. Do you know why? It
is because in vegetables you eat no
tiredness. In meat or fish OF poultry
you eat a great deal of tiredness, and
that is why the meat eater after a
hearty meal feels lazy and heavy and
disinclined to work. he has absorbed
with his meat a great quantity Of uric
acid, and the definition Of uric acid has
been given by an eminent scientist as
the essence Of tiredness.' He who eats
only vegetables is never tired after q
meal-never."

TAKING in Mr.. MOODY.

How His Confidence Was Abused By
the Natives Of Bethany.
When d. L. Moody went to Bethany
during his travels in the east. he was
very soft hearted over ~; the multi
tude of beggars there. not only because
the place is SO UNUSUAL. but because he
was moved by It's beautiful traditions.
He gave quantities of "backsheesh"
and then asked if any of the children
had tile anne Of Mary and Martha.
Yes, indeed. they had. And that open
ed hts pockets again.
The news Of his generosity spread
through the village. and new claim
ants came until his visit seemed likely
to result in d igh; for existence. The
case was getting desperate, and he
told The drag0man to call for silence
while lie made al address. Then he
said:
81 have come G.G1O miles to see this
little village of Bethany. 1t was a
place my Master loved to visit, and
have come TO see it because he loved
It. am very glad to meet you all, but
now I want to be alone. l have no
more backsheesh, and | bid you good
by"
A fine looking boy of 16 replied to the
address. He spoke fluently and with
the grace of an orator. Mr.. Moody
was delighted with the beginning Of
his Grafton, but not with Its conclusion.
"We are glad to see the gentleman
and his friends who have come so far;
but the gentleman must not think that
his actions are equal to the importance
Of his visit. Six thousand miles Is a
long way to come, and the gentleman
must have sacrificed much to make the
visit. In consequence it Is natural for
us to expect that he would be munifl-
cent in ~backsheesh. This he has not
been, and we now expect that he will
give us a great deal MORE"
MI. Moody was)so disguised that he
abandoned the situation entirely and
hurried away with his friends.
II did think" said he, that boy bad
a soul above backsheesh."
"And did you think, too, that some
Of the children were named Martha
and Mary?" he was asked.
Certainly. Why not?"
Nothing; only they were all boys
