stolen cjoaks Recovered:

Mrs Alice Hadiey, until recently a
resident OF this city. but at present To-
Gated at Des Moines, was the recipient
OF business call from Sheriff Shoe
maker Thursday. The object OF the
visit was to recover two acloakx OBJ
tanned by kind Off confidence game
from the firm of M.4F. Andrews The
woman gave up the property and paid
= portion OF the costs OF the trip and
was allowed to go free.
It appears that Mrs. Hadley, whose
reputation In police circles is some
what salacious, called at Mr.. Andrews
store about ten days ago and procured
two coats. one valued at $40, another
OF the value Of $3.50. She told him
she wished to take them home for her
daughter to try on and would return
them. or keep and pay for the one Sc
lected Later she telephoned Mr.. An
sdrews that as the daughter was In tho
country she wished to retain the coats
another day and received his perrnis-
sion. About that time Mrs. Hadley
disappeared and the cloaks went along.
The sheriff OF Polk county searched
Des Aoinee, but was. unable to locate
her. ana the credit OF discovering her
whereabouts belongs to Deputy Sheriff
Hutson, who in some way gained track
of her. Sheriff Shoemaker returned
with the goods Thursday night at 1910.

PAY BACK THE MONEY
Scheme i, Refund a Portion Of
the Money Paid for Mer-
chandise.
The New Blue Trading Stamp is
Thus Given a Definite
Cash Value.

There are several kinds Of trading
stamps in Marshalltown. but the latest
one seems to be the best of all. The new
blue stamp was especially designed for
Marshalltoyvntm merchants, for the benefit
at once Of their trade and their cus-
toners The scheme itself Is a new one,
and is new departure from the GUS
tomary business done In trading stamps
In the fact that no cheap or tawdry ar.
ticles are foisted on the collector Of the
stamps. The new stamp is given def
cent OF the value OF page and goods
may be had for their actual value. This
Is contrary to the old-fashioned method
where articles are listed at high and
arbitrary prices. The new scheme il an
honest one and is simply proposition
to the customer to get a portion Of his
money back and spend 1t for something
useful. Each 10-cent blue stamp is worth
one-half of q cent in cash trade to the
customer or one page representing IS is
worth IS cents to customer. Three
pages of the blue stamp book properly
filled on both sides are worth more than
n whole book OF any other kind of
stamps given away in this city. The
color Of the stamp is blue with the head
of a lady in the center. Circulars ex.
planning the inducements offered by the
blue stamp have been left at every
home in the city. The merchants who
have taken hold Of the new stamp
scheme will have a window display to-
morrow Saturday.. Dec. Z. showing the
number of stamps required to get the
useful and beautiful articles on display.
You will get much better proposition
from theFnew stamp than is offered by
other trading stamp concerns Call at
the stores OF the merchants whose
names appear below, get books and be
ready to save these valuable stamps at
cnce. Persons who have been collecting
stamps from the other concerns need
have no hesitancy In disseminating their
collection. as three pages Of the blue
stamps are worth more than whole
book OF any other kind Of stamps. In

VIOLATES HIS PAROLE
F. A. Perkins, Salesman for
Iowa Tea Company. Is a
Defaulter.
Makes Collections at Belle PLANE
and Skips..His Second
Offence.
Woman Gets Coats by Confidence
Game.-Sheriff Receivers
the Property.

q. 4. Perkins, salesman for the
Iowa Tea Company of this city, is a
fugitive from justice and is being
sought for diligently by Sheriff Shoe
maker and his deputies.
He is charged by Mr.. Ed U. Emery.
proprietor Of the teahouse. with em-
lbezzlement.
Perkins. who has been for a consider
able time employed as travelling sales
man by the Iowa Tea Company, left
two weeks ago Monday night on his
SECULAR trip going to Belle Plaine to
make q canvass of that city and col
lect the sums due on previous de-
Nveries. The bills due amounted to
4207. Perkins made the collections.
or good part of them. and faded away.
The money collected disappeared with
Mr.. Perkins and since then Mr.. Emery
has been endeavoring to locate both
man and money. so far without sue
cess.
Just how much cash Perkins got
away with Mr.. Emery does not know.
It will be necessary to cover the field
Perkins collected over before the pre-
else amount OF his populations may
be stated Enough is known. however,
70 show that goodly sum rested IN
Perkins pocket when he left Belle
PLANE.
Perkins record for embezzlement is a
bad one. He was at large during his
employment with Mr. Emery under a
suspended sentence to the penitentiary.
That he was at large at all was due to
the kindness Of Mr.. Emery, who now
finds that his forbearance was mis-
placed.
In February of the present year Per-
kins was arrested and lodged in Jail here
on complaint Of Mr.. Emery for the en-
bexxlement Of $36 under circumstances
similar to the present case. On that oc-
CASTOR he had skipped and was located
by the sheriff S officers. Emery listened
TO his pleadings and promises OF refor-
nation and used his influence to secure
his parole. The parole was granted and
gave Perkins his liberty so long as he
abstained from drink, kept away from
improper places and on condition that
he work out the amount OF his Indebted
ness to Mr. Emery.
Perkins, for long time, kept his
promises. He worked faithfully, kept
sober. married and seemed to be on the
road to become a solid citizen. Lately
Mr. Emery raised his wages for efficien-
cy and Perkins dereliction was to him
great surprise.
Previous to his first engagement Per-
kins was employed by the B. w. Sim
clair company in this city. While sew
eral small matters came up after his
resignation from Mr.. sinclair's employ
Perkins was practically square in
money matters while he was employed
there.
Perkins wife resides over Schmidt's
store on West Main street. She is terri
bly, shocked over the downfall OF her
husband
