Peculiar Affection Playing Havoc
With the Swine at the
Home.

The Iowa Soldiers Home is at pres
ent taxed to its utmost capacity to
meet the demands made upon it for APP
plications for new memberships, and to
furnish accommodations to furloughed
members who are returning to the
Home because of the present severe
cold snap. Every room in each depart
ment OF the institution Is full, and
sixty more beds are in use now than at
this time last year. Still the Home is
not able to care for all who should be
cared for. Already fifteen or twenty
applications for apartments are on file
from old couples and there is not va
cant room in the old peoples building,
which was built with view OF satisfy
ing all possible demands. Some of the
Railways are already equipped with
beds and members are sleeping there.
The failure to secure certain lot OF
new beds ordered, is causing much in
convenience just now, and as soon as
they can be secured they will be placed
in other halls and the condition will be
somewhat relieved. The actual mem
bership, present, yesterday, was 763. $50
of which were men and seventy three
women. Present and absent the men,
bership rolls show S22, 722 Of which are
men and eighty-two women. With
sixty-One civilian employees. including
the forty-four women employed in the
various department, this makes a
family OF s14 members to feed each
day.
Commandant Horton has made some
deductions concerning the cost of heat
ing the institution on days such as we
may expect to have at any time at this
season OF the year. During a day of
twenty-four hours, an average temper
allure of IL degrees below zero, with a
northwest wind, it costs 31.42 to heat
1000 square feet ct radiation, with six
pounds steam pressure. From the main
power house, which supplies heat to all
of the buildings excepting the hospital.
dormitory and women's building, there
is total of about 1900 square feet of
radiation. Eighteen tons OF steam coal
SIPS ton, is consumed eacn day in the
main heating plant. and about IS worth
additional in the plant that supplies
heat for the hospital, woman's building
and dormitory. making a total cost OF
about $31 .04 cents per day.

In the opinion Of Commandant Hor-

that 1t was fed to the swine. A great

surmised as responsible for the strange

FORMULATE PETITION.
Postmasters of County Ask FOR Exten-
sion Of Rural Delivery Service.

sion Of Rural Delivery Service.
At a meeting of the postmastcrs OF
the county, held In the Office OF Post
master Saint on Monday afternoon, a
petition asking for the extension OF the
free delivery service in this county was
drawn up and signed by the fourteen
postmasters present. Mr.. Samuel Whin-
cry. OF Bangor. presided at the meet
ing and Mr.. r. A. Dunkle. of Gilman,
acted as secretary. A committee. COM
posed of r. A. Dunkle. j. Q. Saint and
J. b. Sweet, Jr., was appointed to draw
up and present a resolution, to be adop-
ted by the meeting and forwarded to
the first assistant postmaster general.
The following was presented and adop-
ted:
Hon. w. NJ. Johnson, First Assist
ant Postmaster General, Washington,
d. c.: Dear Sir-In view of the fact
that this. Marshall county. Iowa, has
rural free delivery serving all of three
fifths of the rural population and
whereas, the other two-fifths feel
aggrieved that their neighbors are re-
ceiving the benefits of said service, and
whereas that no more routes car be
laid in said county until reorganized so
that all can be served alike. Therefore
we. the undersigned postmasters of
said county in convention assembled do
most earnestly petition and pray that
you will speedily deliver us from this
condition by ordering a universal SER
vice for this county,
A general discussion of the rural
question was participated in by most Of
the postmasters present at the meeting,
including the necessity for good roads
and the cooperation of the patrons of
the routes, and those in attendance say
they were much benefited by the con-
ference.

NEW DEPOT ASSURED
Great Western Has Appropriated
$4,000 for Marshalltown
Improvement.
Work to Be Commenced Early
Next Summer and Pushed
to Completion.
Will Probably Be Located East Of
the Present Struc-
ture.

That new depot promised by the Chi
cago Great Western for several years
is in sight. and when it is built will
be an ornament to the city.
Land Commissioners Woodruff, of ST.
Paul. was in the city for a short time
Monday afternoon, and while here he
announced that the Great Western had
set aside an appropriation of $4,000
for depot expenses in Marshalltown.
1t has been known for some time that
the company intended to build in the
near future, and orders were issued
some time ago that no more repairs
should be made on the present struc-
ture.
The company has been planning for
some time on this improvement, which
will include some changes in the yards
and trackage Land was purchased
ago. and when the new depot is built
it will be located, 1t is presumed, east
of the present structure and near Third
avenue. This will make the depot cas-
Ter of access from the Northwestern
depot by way Of Third avenue.
Mr.. Woodruff did not say that the
entire amount Of $4,000 would be ex-
pended on the depot alone. but that
several thousand dollars of this
amount will be expended on the nee
essary changes in the tracks and i'm
provements in the surroundings of the
new structure. The new depot, when
built, will be greatly appreciated by
the patrons Of the company as we'll as
the citizens. The present structure
is an eyesore, and has been retained
only because the Great Western wanted
to erect commodious and permanent
station house to meet the demands OF
the next fifty years when 1t did build.
Land Commissioner Woodruff re-
turned Monday night to his home in
st. Paul.

The Present Conflict.

The great social and moral question of
temperance prohibition is now agitating
our American people, and do not know
of any subject in which people should
feel more deeply interested than this
question Of alcohol. These are only a
few thoughts to show that the evil of in
temperance bids fair to drive health out
of our bodies, patriotism out of our poll
tics, morals out of society, and religion
out of our churches. "Wine is a mock
er, strong drink is raging; and whosoev-
er is deceived thereby is not wise"
Prov. 20-1. Whatever is gained for tenn
perance, is also gained for the home
Our doctors give reasons based ON ply
Biological laws, and our ministers think
to teach us what is right from religious
point of view. But women, suffering
mothers, wives and daughters, who have
started this agitation, find that the
drinking men are not made better by
the preachers sermons, or the doctors
prescriptions.
Misery and anguish have goaded them
to cry out, to seek relief at any cost,
from the physical want, the mental suf-
fering, the social ostracsm which they
and their children innocently endure
Their work is stigmatised as the two
mems war" 1t is indeed a war, and
now that Christian women have taken
hold of it, we intend to carry the war
right into the citadel of the enemy. For
it is impossible to withhold our warmest
appreciation of any measure that will
check the rum seller, and l wonder that
government, after seeing the awful fruits
of the liquor traffic, has not gone on and
laid the axe to the root of the evil; and
exterminated it at once by strong and
vigorous hand. For it is business that
hurts all who touch it-crime, begging,
vice, disease, sorrow and suffering are
its only fruits.
Oh, it is a terrible thing to have the
guilt of ruined human souls, and the
curse of broken hearted wives and moth
ers on your soul. A government of the
people can hardly be called wise gov
eminent so long as it fosters and pro-
tects by legal enactment and draws a
part of its revenue from traffic like
this, and just so sure as they do this the
day of retribution will come; and the
curse resting on blood money, will come
with it.
