Three Poweshiek County Boys.

Three green, gawky boys left Montezuma
about the same time several years ago The
loafers on the goods boxes declared that ne-
ther of them would amount to anything But
the young fellows started out full of hope and
courage and, strange it may seem. each one
of them was determined to be a lawyer. This
made the goods box prophets all the more reck-
less in their predictions. The boys got down to
business. Each took the law course at the
State University. and in that day this was not a
very extensive affair." Now these three fellows
stand at the head of the profession in the com
munity in which they reside James Bruce has
been county attorney of Cass county, is presi-
dent of bank at Anita and will doubtless rep
resent the senatorial district in the stat senate
He is worth probably $l0O.0OO.O0. Perry D. Rose
was county attorney of Green county, is member
of the board of directors of the state normal
school, owns considerable property, has a fine
practice and ranks as one of the best LAWYERS in
that section. Theodore Myers is "a prominent
member of the bar at Audubon, owns some of
the best farms in that section, has property on
thePacific coast and is probably worth $50 1000 co
and these are the three 'greenhorns y that
pulled out of here determined to get to the
'front.' with pluck to back up their determination
The above was taken from the Mon
tezuma Democrat and shows what any
boy with determination, euergy and
push can do. 1t takes nerve and a
strong determination, however, to get
to the front. But our fellow-townsman
has proved that such things are pos
sible.

Mrs. +. E. Reed passed through
town this week and stopped off for
visit with Mrs. Hinkhouse. She was
going from Atlantic her former home,

part into the street, when they will
begin Immediately to put up a brick
building on the old site. The building
in which they located is one of the
first put up in town. 1t has almost
become land mark, but even now
land marks must give way to more
modern means. Mr.. Cowles came here
when the town was not near as large
as it is now and by steady and close
application to business has built up a
good trade. Every line of his store too
has increased as time goes by. There
was time when there was little de-
mand for jewelay of any kind. But
as the country settled and people be-
gan to accumulate some money they
began to demand many things. This
more too will be an Improvement to
the town. Every move that puts in
brick instead of the old frame is en-
HANGING the price of all real estate
We hope soon to see the time when
both sides of main street will be solid
brick.

place, he builds it only of the best
timber and in the best shape possible.

Making Steel Rails,

The rail mill presents many pictures
that appeal strongly to lovers Of the
picturesque. Under ordinary circum-
stances the great strands of iron, each
half as long as city block, slide back
and forth smoothly enough between
the rolls that are stretching them and
pressing them into the required shape,
but tiny obstacle may at any noment
turn one of these cables of fire off the
beaten track and twist it into hope
less tan2le or wind it like squirming
snake around some unfortunate work
man.
When the rolling process has been
completed. the piece of iron slides along
to the great buzzsaws, which cut it up
into the 80 foot rails known to the rail-
way traveller. Every time the whirring
circular saw clips off one of these
lengths, sparks radiate in every direc-
ton, as though the biggest pyrotech-
nical pinwheel ever devised had been
suddenly set in motion.
When the rail has been cooled and
holes have been drilled in it, it is ready
to start for any part Of the world.
The evolution Of bars or beams or
sheets from the big steel slabs is gain
ed by the same general method OF pro-
cedure. 1t is the size and shape OF the
grooves in the rolls which determine
the form to be ultimately assumed by
the steel in their notwithstanding

Attention Sunday School Workers.

The County Sunday School Asso-
citation are planning for grand county
convention about the 10Th of Sept.
1t is expected that at least the State
President aid Field Secretary will be
in attendance and every thing will be
done to make it a success in every
way. Watch for the date place and
program later. This is the time of the
year, when schools find it hard to keep
up. Some are on q vacation, others
have such a severe case of Sunday
morning headache, that they think it
is impossible to attend. But never the
less, there are those who are regardless
of the conditions and of these do we
expect cooperation in the county oiga-
nization. The state convention, at
recent session, took advanced steps, in
regard to the field work aud house to
house visitation. We would like if
every Sunday School in the county
would take up the matter of house to
house visitation and between now and
the county convention see to it, that
every family in the county are visit
ed Rev. j. Il. .Hinkhouse, of Audu-
bon, is chairman Of the house to house
visitation committee, for the county,
who will give any information desired
in regard to the matter. The county
needs more thorough organization and
it is hoped that each school in the
county will arrange to have at least
one or more delegates to the county
convention. All of the townships in
county except one have held conven-
tions, which is possible the last one
done in the county and now we hope
to arrange for grand county conven-
ton. 1t will be remembered at the
convention last year each school in
the county was asked to contribute to
the amount of two cents per member
to the county organization, this to be
used in the county and state work.
Some have already sent in their con-
tribution. Will not others send to the
undersigned, so the committee will
know what to do. The Secretary and
Treasurer resigning on account of
leaving the county, I am expected to
attend to this business until the county
convention.

there.
Harry Webster disposed of his fine
Hambletonian horse the first of the
week to Chris Petersen. This is one
the best horses in the country and in
getting it Mr.. Petersen gets a splendid
bargain.
The Catholic church is undergoing
some repairs this week in the way OF a
new cupola and entrance being made
on it. This is one of the pieces of pro-
perty in the town that is always kept
in first class repair.
Some much needed repairs were put
in the office of the County Clerk this
week in window being placed in the
south. This was alwaysa dark office
and this will add much to the comfort
of the occupants in light and will
serve too to help when it gets as warm
as it has heen in the way of furnishing
draft. This makes all of the offices
in pretty good shape but the Recorders.
This office is sadly in need of repairs.
The paper is dirty and dingy and
hanging from ceiling almost in shreds
and should be put up III better shape
so that when visitors from neighbor-
ing towns come in they will not 60
away remarking on the condition OF
any of the offices.

Synopsis OF q most Remarkable
Lecture Delivered Before the
Ninth Medical Congress, BY
DR.. A. L. A. Toboldt. of phiIa.

The famous fountain of health
at Carlsbad, in Bohemia, which
has been the refuge Of i,ivalids
for FIVE centuries, is certainly
we'll worthy of a careful study.
My experience with this water has
been such that l may truly saw
that no rem ,dy which ever en-
ployed has given me so much
pleasure and profit as this partic-
ular one. Selecting a number of
chronic hypochondriacs, whose
Affections have baff1ed all my pre-
vious efforts as my subjects, was
truly astonished to note that, al
though no rigid diet was pre-
scribed, and only a limited amount
of exercise was INDUCED in,
I obtained most remarkable re-
sults-the complexion, even after
a weeks use. began to clear up,
the step became more firm and
elastic, and, what was more, the
entire host of hypochondriacal
complaints, seemed to vanish like
mist.
The Carlsbad Sprudel Water is
a specific in all diseases of the
Liver and Kidneys, Catarrh of the
Stomach Govt and Rheumatism.
If decided laxative action is
desired, add a small teaspoonful
of the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt to a
tumblerful of the water and take
one hour before breakfast.

MAN-EATING LIONS.
The BelSians Abandon One Of Their
Stations on Account of These Animals.
(Ncw York Sum-

(NcW York SUM-
The Katanga Company, which is de-
veloping the rubber and other resour-
ces of large district in the upper
Congo basin. has abandoned the station
of Kululu which it had established on
Lake Moero. Though a great deal of
labor had been expended in making
this station large and desirable post
the region around it became infested
with man-eating lions. 1t was there
fore decided to seek another location.
Quite a number of natives in the SER
vice of the state We're killed by these
lions within a few weeks. The VIC
Tins We're dragged into the jungle and
eaten. Many men saved their lives
only by climbing trees, thus getting out
of reach of the bowling beasts beneath
them. Everywhere along the paths and
brooks the lions lay in wait for their
prey and no man knew when he might
be struck to earth by the terrible foe
lurking in the jungle all ready for the
fatal spring.
A man-eating lion is one that has
tasted human flesh. likes it better than
the meat of any of the animals upon
which its kind is wont to prey and
therefore will eat nothing else if it is
able to Kill man, woman or child. In
the past three years it has been more
than usually in evidence in East Africa
between Victoria Nyanza and the In
dian ocean. The man-eaters killed
many natives and also a considerable
number of laborers on the Uganda
Railroad. They filled the thousands of
Indian and black laborers with such
terror that the men finally refused to
| work until all the lions had been killed
When man-eating lions come to the
neighborhood of human habitations
one of the two things must be done
Either the inhabitants must get out of
the country. for their lives are not safe
| there for moment. or else they must
| Kill every lion of the man-eating type
that has come into their district 1t
| is very fortunate that lions of this type
are comparatively few in number If
all lions were man-eaterS Africa
would become uninhabita bile. unless the
world organized a gigantic lion hunt TO
wipe the whole species out of cxigt-
enCC.
