Charles Ritter, Painter, Narrowly
Escapes Death as q Result Of Fall.
Charles Ritter, aged II, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Ritter. of III Bromley street,
and employed as painter by James
Skegg, while at work this afternoon at
the Odeon theater, fell from a scaifold-
ing, launched about twenty-five feet
from the ground, to the pavement be-
low, and escaped with injuries that, al
tho very painful, are not serious.
How the young man escaped death is
the wonder of all who witnessed the ac-
cident. For some reason the large Crap
ping hook that sustained the scaffold-
ing became loosened from the board
that was fastened to the roof and let
him fall. His right knee struck rough
corner of the stone work near the base
of the building, while his chin received
the weight Of the fall and struck the
pavement. Ritter was removed in an
ambulance to his home shortly after the
accident, where his injuries we're exam
ined by surgeon. The knee was found
to have been fractured and also diso-
Gated, the patella being torn loose from
the under tissues Only a superficial
fracture resulted in the right jaw, but
two bad flesh wounds were, sustained

Some Fine Specimens Of tho Marshall
County Crop.
Mr.. Jordan Hollingsworth, who resides
seven miles southeast of the city,
sent to the T.-R. Office this morning
three specimen stalks of corn, gathered
from his field. The stalks are ten feet in
height, and while the leaves near the
top are Drowned somewhat, there is no
indication of damage, as the ears are
large and are filing nicely. The corn
was grown on the Timber Creek bottom
lands, and Mr.. Hollingsworth will have
a full crop.
Mr.. Judson Jones, of Minnesota, who
is visiting veteran brother in the Sol
diers' Home hospital, brought to the
T.-R. Office today a well-developed ear
of corn which he plucked from the field
of Mr.. George Steward, near the Sol-
diers, Home. Mr.. Jones is satisfied that
this field will produce at least full half
crop, on COIL that is somewhat sandy.
G. II. Diggins, Of Washington town
ship, was in the city today, and says the
corn crop in Washington township, for
which he is able to speak. will not aver
age more than twenty bushels to the

Iowa Central Excursion From
Centerville the Largest
Ever Into City.
Over l.4OO People From Southern
Iowa Towns Visit Marshall-
tswn Sunday.
Mr.. George 5. Batty's Success
in General PASSENGER
Department.

The largest excursion that has ever
been brought into the city over any rail-
road was that Of Sunday, when the Fiji
ty-frst Iowa band, from Centerville, in
a special train over the Iowa Central
brought a delegation of over 1,4oo visit
ors, who spent the day in Marshalltown
seeing the sights and picnicking in the
new Iowa River park, which was opened
for the first time to visitors
Mr.. George s. Batty, general passen-
ger and ticket agent of the Central, who
planned the excursion and directed It
was more than gratified with the re-
suits. which exceeded his most sanguine
expectation. The rain Of Saturday, II
was thought, would certainly curtai
the attendance. and for that reason
there was not quite as much equipment
sent south for the special as would have
been. The bright, cool morning, howev.
err, Sunday, turned the doubling one:

ACQUITTED
Trial In Justice Court Results In
Acquittal Of Phillips. Holt
and Wagner. 4
Seine Seized At the Time Of the
Arrest Ordered Confiscated
BY the Court.
Justice Says Evidence Was Not
Quite Strong Enough
to Convict.

While the Marshalltown Fish Pro-
tective Association failed to secure a
conviction in the first case brought for
violation Of the game laws, the mem
bers are not discouraged and will con-
t.nue their efforts to secure q better OBJ
servance OF the fish laws in this vicinity.
Justice Burritt this morning rendered a
decision in the case against Ross Phil
lips, Amasa Holt and Gottfried wenger
for seining, the decision being in favor
of the defendants. Justice Burritt says
the evidence of the state was not sufi-
cient to dispel all doubt as to the inno-
cence Of the parties, hence his decision.
He has made an order. however. to the
effect that the large seine, captured
when the arrests were made, shall be
confiscated. The seine wes found in the
possession Of Phillips and Wenger, but
the former claimed that he had, while
acting in the capacity of deputy game
warden. taken it from other parties
whom he caught SEEMING, together with
the fish found in his possession, but that
the men made their escape.
The order to conf1scate the seine Is q
partial victory for the Fish Protective
Association. as the owners thereof will
he under the necessity of ceasing their
violations of the law or else expend
quite a sum for new one. The seine in
question is a large and expensive one.
The seiners are not the only violators
whom the members of the association
are determined to prosecute but those
who resort to the more destructive pas

the result was that the special bore into
Marshalltown 1,32S people who had paid
fares, besides the band Of twenty-se
pieces and several others who were con-
lnected in one way and another with the
work of the excursion. The train, COM
posed of six coaches, three combination
cars and two way cars, in charge Of
Conductor S. w. Rowen, and hauled by
Engineer Nehring, with engine II, ar
rived at 11:4O, having been delayed
somewhat between here and Oskaloosa
by the new work being done on various
portions of the line. and south of Oska-
loosa by the heavy crowds. The fact of
the matter was the crowds were too big
to handle, so popular did the excursion
prove, and at Abba alone in the neigh
borhood Of 100 people turned away, be-
cause there was not enough room to ac-
commodate them. Many of the young
men on the train preferred the tops of
the way cars to the crowded seats and
rode the entire trip in the open air. On
returning. at $50. two extra coaches
We're placed on the train, thus relieving
the congested condition. Mr.. George NJ.
Martin, of Oskaloosa travelling passen-
ger agent, was in charge of the train
for the department. The crowd was an
exceptionally good-natured one and the
entire train was free from any of the
Objectionable features that usually ac-
companies and is expected in the excur-
sion business. There was not an intox-
icated person on board, either coming or
returning, and the best OF feeling pre-
vailed. all expressing themselves az
having had most enjoyable day.
After arriving in the city, and after a
journey Of 100 miles the crowd was in
the best of humor for dinner. and a
great many took cars at once for the
park, where they could eat their lunches
in the shade. Others, who preferred not
being bothered with lunch baskets,
sought the hotels and eating houses. The
band members did not go to the park
until after dinner and began their con-

gallery quite extensively. while many
enjoyed bathing, boating. and fishing.
Many who had never visited the city
before spent the greater portion Of the
time in visiting about the city, and more

largest crowd from any OF the points
south was. OF course. from Centerville,
the starting poirt, where go people pur-
chased tickets. One hundred and eighty

passengers were taken on north OF Os-

was uniform, 81 for the round trip.
Mr.. George w. Landers, director of
the Fifty first Iowa band, who has visit
ed the city twice before with l,islorgan-
tzation, upon it's return from the Phil
ippines, and who has accompanied ex-
cursion parties to the city upon two
other occasions, said that the excursion
was more than successful, and much
larger than he even dared hope for. He
termed it simply an outing and said that
the band had always enjoyed Its trips to
the best city in Iowa. Many Of the ex-
cursionists, he said, had never been to
the city BEFORE and for their benefit Mr..
Landers had prepared small handbills
explanatory of the different points OF in
terest and how to reach them. The
Elks and e. p. club rooms were open to
the members Of the different orders. and
many spent the day quietly indoors.
Fortunately there was not an accident
on the entire trip, either to or from the
city, which fact has been very graft

ing departments Of the road, which real
ize the precaution that is always neces-
sary in handling such large crowds.

Maj. John NJ. Burke. agent for Buffalo
Bills Wild West show. which is to ex-
hibit here Friday, spent the day in
the city making the final arrangements
for his attraction here. Maj. Burke is
as jolly as ever and in excellent health
despite his years, and said laughingly
that he would be able to live century
The major has been with Buffalo Bill
since the latter engaged in the show
business, and is we'll acquainted with
Marshalltown's business conditions. He
sees many Improvements since his last
visit here two years ago. and says there
are evidences on all sides that Marshall
town is progressive place
The Wild West show has been doing
an immense business so far this season
despite the intense heat. The show Is
now working towards Buffalo, where 1t
will exhibit at the Pan-American Expo
sition. When 1t opened in Chicago 1t did
a bigger business than on the opening
days of the worlds fair and also closed
there with bigger business. During
the past seven weeks, with the hottest
weather on record. the show has filled
all Its dates, has not missed single per-
Torrance or a street parade. All this
shows what hardy and seasoned men
can do under trying circumstances. The
performers, it will be remembered. are
compelled to do their work in the open
air, which makes the task all the more
trying to their constitutions. About
some Of the new features Maj. Burke
said:
THE Canadian Mounted Rifles. the
strathcora Horse. detachment of
Colonial South Africans. and a squad of
genuine Boer soldiers add strong addi-
t!onal interest to the show this season.
This is It's first visit here In, two years.
