MR.. GEORGE GOULD HERE
He With Members of His Family Will
Visit lola in the Special Train
Some Time Tomorrow.
From Thursdays Daily.

1t has been some time since lola has
had the pleasure and honor of being
the recipient of the interested gaze of
Mr.. George Gould, the head man of
the Missouri Pacific railway system,
but it will happen again tomorrow.
The special train bearing him, Miss
Helen Gould and Mrs. George Gould
and her two sons, Kingdom and Jay,
G. G.. Warner, Russell Harding, Mrs.
w. A. Hamilton and Mrs. G. b.
Huntsman, will arrive from the west,
but whether or not a stop will be made
cannot be known, the tail end of
Georges letter to the REGISTER re-
porter being blotted out.
Mr.. Gould is on atour of inspection
of his lines, possibly thinking also OF
the rumored junction with the M. X ~
II. and other roads He intended GO
ing through here today but the sche-
dule was changed and he went south
from Yates Center. He is expected
here some time tomorrow and any who
feel inclined can gather on the fence
along the track and see the train.
But remember, always, that you'll
have to hurry, hurry if you ever see
George.

MR.. ROOSEVELT STERN.
Applause When HE Entered the Sen
ate Met His DisapprOval.

Washington, March 6--Again to-
day when the Senate convened the
galleries were packed with visitors, a
majority of whom, as on recent days,
were composed of visitors to the city.
In the executive gallery were members
of the staff of Governor Yates of Illi-
nois. Promptly at noon Vice Presi-
dent Roosevelt entered the chamber.
AS he stepped forward to his desk to
call the Senate to order, burst of
applause rang through the galleries.
The Vice President seized his gavel
and raped sharply twice for order.
Glancing sternly around the galleries
he said
"If there is any applause or disor-
der the sergeant-at-arms will clear
the galleries.

In the District Cours.

Several cases we're filed in District
Court Saturday that are very inter-
esting to parties concerned.
The Port Huron Mich. Engine and
Thrasher Company sues for judgment
against Paul, S. F., Louis, f. f.. and
Minnie Keeper, who live at Marshall
town, Ia, but own the southeast
quarter of 15-25-1S in Allen county.
1t would seem that the case is another
suit on threshing machinery and the
plaintiff asks forthe sale or apportion-
ing of the Allen county land.
The suit of State versus Kline was
also filed. 1t is the Moran school
case, Prof. Kline being charged with
maliciously and wilfully and brutally
beating one Sloan Smith with picket
and with buggy whip. The defend
ant alleges that he simply used such
force as was necessary to reduce a
rebellious pupil to obedience. Sides
have been taken and the case will
probably be a bitter one.
In the district court Monda Y
Mrs. Mary A. Williams, wife of L..
Williams, brought suit against the
Star Brick Company, owned. by Bush
and Wadsworth. Theplaintiff alleges
that she resides in a house in Cement
vile, that the brick company blasts
out shale from its quarries, that this
shale is blasted in a very careless,
rude and dangerous manner, that
pieces frequently fall on her roof and
crack the shingles, that on February
10 a hunk weighing five pounds did so
fall on her roof, penetrated it and did
much damage. Wherefore, for
damage to her property and the men
tai anguish consequent to having
blasts going of in the back yard at
unexpected moments, she asks for
damages in the sum of 5000, that the
defendant pay the costs and be forth
with enjoined from blasting any
more.

The Baby as an Investment.

Does two-year-old baby pay for
itself up to the time it reaches that in
teresting age? asks j. H. ID. in Detroit
Free Press. And adds: Sometimes /
think not. / thought so yesterday
when my own baby slipped into my
study and scrubbed" the carpet and
his own best dress with my bottle of
ink. He was playing in the coal-hod
ten minutes after clean dress was
put on him, and later in the day he
pasted fifty cents worth of postage
stamps on the parlor wall and poured
a dollars worth of the choicest white
rose perfumery out of the window to
see it 'wain."
Then he dug out the center of a nicely
baked loaf cake, and Twas found in the
middle of the dining room table with
the sugar bowl between his legs, and
most of the contents in his stomach.
He has already cost 800 Doctors
bills, and | think l am right in attri-
buting my few gray hairs to the misery
/ endured walking the floor with him
at night during the first year of his
life.
What has he ever done to pay me
for that!
All. near his little feet pattering
along out in the hall. | hear his little
ripple of laughter, because he has
escaped from his mother and has
found his way up to my study at a
forbidden hour. But the door is
closed. The worthless little vagabond
can't get in.
And l won't open it for him. No, |
won't. I can't be disturbed when Pm
writing. He can just cry if he wants
to. | won't be bothered for-'rat,

the door. l sit in silence.
''Rat, tat, tat.

No reply.

He shall not come in.

stretched little arms, with shining eyes
and laughing face. l catch him up in
to my arms, and his warm, soft little
arms go around my neck, the not very
clean little cheek is laid close to mine
he baby voice says sweetly.

Does he pay?
Well, | guess he does! He has cos
me time and money, and care and self
sacrifice. He may cost me pain ano
sorrow. He has cost much. But h'
has paid for it all again and agair
and again in whispering those thre'
little words into my ear: 81 lul

Yates Center Liquor Cases.

Owing to the fact that the cases of
the three Yates Center druggists re-
Gently arrested for breaking the prohi-
bitory law are similar to the nemerous
cases recently filed here, all prosecu-
tions by Bennett and Morse at the
instigation of the Law and Order
League, on information secured
through spoilers, the results of the
Yates Center cases are of interest
here.
All three druggists compromised their
cases. Each gave bond in the sum of
$1,000 to stay out of the business in the
future, and agreed to pay all costs in
the actions, including lawyers fees,
and their cases were continued inde-
finitely. If the papers in the lola
cases are exactly similar the same re-
suit may be expected.
