and kept up the search until early this
morning. The men, however, did not
appear. No theory has been advanced
as to what became of the men, 1t is
more than probable they walked
across the country from where the
outrage occurred to the Rock Island
tracks, and then walked into this city.
If they are in Ottumwa, however, they
have kept pretty well under cover.
Conductor Howard Talks.
Conductor Howard, who had good
chance to look at the men, says he be"
lieves they were slightly under the in
fluence of liquor. He said one of the
men had a bottle of whiskey in one
of his pockets. Mr. Howard thinks
the men got on the train at Avery, as
he remembers seeing a man answering
nearly the description of one of these
at Avery while his train was doing
some switching. For this reason he
believes the men were coal miners.
They were fairly well dressed and all
were in their shirt sleeves

them as being about 5 feet 10 incres
high, and rather heavy set. His shirt
had pink stripes running through it,
and he wore a mustache of about a
weeks growth, having APPARENTLY been
shaved down from a very heavy one.
The second man was rather tall and
| would weigh more than the first one.
He was apparently smooth faced. This
is the man who struck Booth. The
third man, Conductor Howard did not
get to see distinctly and could not give
a good description of him.
Operation Performed.
After Booth had been removed to
the hospital, Dr. Williams called DR..
! Spilman and an examination disclosed
fractured skull with depression. 1t
was decided that trepanning would
have to be resorted to as the skull
was resting against the brain. This
was done, and the obstruction was re-
moved. Booth rallied from the shock
of the operation very nicely and this
morning is doing as well as could be
! expected.
Parents Live Here.
Booths home is at 119 NJ Willard
! street where his parents reside. Harry
has not been staying at home of late
! however, it being so far from his work
He has been boarding at the English
Kitchen and rooming in the East End
Much indignation was heard ON all
sides among the railroad men, espec.
tally last night, and if they had gotten
their hands on the scoundrels who sc
badly injured Booth there is little
doubt but that they would have been
roughly used. The excitement has
died down to considerable extent to
day, and it is not believed any one
would attempt summary vengeance on
the men should they be captured.

WHAT MAY SHE DO,

We are asked to state what sort of,
work woman may properly be al,
lowed to do on the farm. No answer
we might give could be wholly salts
factory, for SO much depends upon the
woman herself, her nationality, her
education and social environment.
Some women are physically strong
strong as any man. Others arr phys
ically weak-unfit for toll. 1t has al
cared for her home and family in all
the varied ways which come under
homemaker's duty she had done about
all that could reasonably be expect
ed of her. If, however, she be young
and strong and there be no little chill
dren to hinder and she feels like doing
it (mind that last proviso), there is no
objection to her assisting her husband
very materially in the lighter forms
of farm work. For instance, the poul-
try yard and the garden may very
properly be assigned to her; she may
properly assist in the milking of the
cows and look after the young and
weak things on the farm, the little
lambs, pigs and calves; she may ride
the sulky pillow, attend to the market
ing of farm products, keep the farm
accounts and do the buying for the
establishment. In word, i aDle and
willing, she may do any sort of work
up to that point where the doing of it
will not impair her sense of womanly
refinement and delicacy and make her
any the less lady by the doing of it.
Work which would convert her hands
into calloused and deformed append
ages she should not do, for, while the
lily white hand is under farm condi-
lions for woman dream and not a
reality, still when we see a woman's
hand as large and coarse as that of her
husband we know one woman at least
has been forced out of her proper place.
Every woman must settle this question
for herself. The American woman
may grow fruits and vegetables, care
for bees and poultry, milk COWS and
feed calves and pigs and still suffer no
loss of social prestige or position, pro-
vided that in the doing of it all she re-
tains her womanly graces and refine
ment, in which respect we think that
society as whole Is very generous and
considerate Outdoor work to a rea-
sonable degree would do much for the
physical development of the American
woman, but in doing it she should be
no less lady than she is now.

BOTH BENEFITED.

A good friend of ours takes excep.
ton to our recommendation to the man
who had naturally ill tempered and
ugly horse to get rid of him and says
that we are unfair to the man to whom
such horse may be traded or sold. Not
altogether. There is a great difference
in men in the matter of handling
cranky horses. We once owned a good
mare whose only fault was that when
we had to ford small creek on. our
way to the field she would always balk
when in the middle of the stream and
kick the front end board out of the
wagon il she could. This became very
annoying and tried our patience 10
the extreme. A neighbor who did
not have to cross creeks every day
and who considered himself one of the
elect so far as his eternal happiness
was concerned offered to buy the mare,
knowing just what her failing was,
and he kept her for years as useful
farm animal. We got rid of nui-
sance; he got a good horse. Nothing
wrong about that.

A lake bed covering several hundred
acres was drained few years ago, the
bitches dug being based upon the most
careful and technical survey and esti-
mate of the probable rainfall of the
watershed of which the lake was the
natural reservoir. The lake bed was
drained and converted into fields of
corn, potatoes and small grains. One
June day a fall of over one foot of
water was precipitated upon the water
shed of the lake bed in the course of
two hours. the result of n cloudburst.
This upset the calculations of the en-
gineer and converted the reclaimed
field into a lake ten feet deep. This
fact is mentioned to show the need of
making allowance for extraordinary
rainfalls when planning the reclama-
ton Of swamps and lake beds.
