terchange of views in regard to muni-
cipal identifying. Good speakers talk
ed eloquently of the advantages of
making city beautiful, fine words
We're used to paint picture of city
beautiful at the capital of Iowa; but
the fact was realized then as before
that the time to commence making
Des Moines beautiful should have been
twenty-five or forty years ago. And
the lesson which Des Moines is now
learning might well be learned by
smaller cities before it is too late for
them to plan for beauty as well as
business.

A few years ago one Leigh Hunt,
then superintendent of the East Des
Moines schools, went about among the
smaller towns of central Iowa and de-
livered lectures at teachers institutes
and discoursing on the text, Having
eyes that see and ears that hear
Hunt has since illustrated his own
text. He became head of the Agricul-
tural college and failed to see how to
run it, then went to Washington
where, by the help of rich father-in-
law, he got start in life and became
very rich. He owned the Post-lntelli-
gence and was great editor. A crash
came and he went out again with eyes
that see and ears that hear and after
digging gold awhile in Corea he is to
start another paper in Seattle with
millions pack of it. He built on an is
land near Seattle, modern palace,
into which he put S250,000 Now news
comes that he is again rich enough to
live in such a palace. and that he will
become newspaper man.

death of a young man. Floyd Temple.
The facts as nearly as can be ascer-
tanned at this time are as follows: Mr..
Temple was employed as firemean on
one OF the freights of the Northwestern
and was coming east Thursday and
some support of the car next to the
tender gave way and the car seemed
to be in danger of tipping over. The
train was tfren moving at good speed
The noise of broken machinery at
tracted the attention of Mr.. Temple and
he went down the steps of the cab and
swung his body out for the purpose of
finding the cause of the cars tipping.
This was just before reaching the first
highway crossing west of Paulina. He
swung too far out and was struck in
the back and the back of the head by
the cattle guard post, which hurled him
to the ground with awful force.
The unfortunate man was brought
to Paulina and everything possible was
done to relieve his sufferings Some
hopes were entertained for his recov-
cry, but he never rallied from the shock
and died at 6: 80 p. m. 1t is particularly
distressing to this community, as Mr..
Temple was great favorite among the
young people and above all he leaves a
wife, bride of but about three months,

night, but no arrangements for the
funeral have yet been made.

same as at Scotland, S. D., yesterday

element prevails in this city over the
bank robbery, or attempted robbery in
this vicinity in two weeks. This number
includes two in South Dakota. The
same methods We're used in all the rob-
berries and there is no doubt that the
crimes are being committed by the
same men or gang.
There is no question in the minds of
authorities that the bank robbers
some time ago went about and charted
all the banks which they planned to
rob. They probably have, wherever
they are hiding, neat itinerary which
it would cost them twenty years In
