BONDS IAKEN At HONE
School District Bonds to Amount
of $4,000 Refunded at Low
Interest.
Marshalltown State Bank the
Successful Bidder, Against
Eastern Firms.
Premium Of $500 Paid-District
Will Save $4,000 in Ten
Years-The Bids.

Marshalltown financial institutions
have the capital and the ability to out
bid strong eastern firms when occasion
demands, as on Tuesday evening
Treasurer Harry Gerhart, of the inde-
pendent school district of Marshall-
town, accepted the bid of the Marsnall-
town State Bank to refund $4,000 in
bonds. The bank offered premium Of
$500 and to refund the bonds at the
rate of per cent, and this was the best
proposition among the twelve bids re-
ceived.
The bonds have been drawing Az per
cent interest, and as the ten-year OPP
ton on them at that rate was about to
expire, the school board was confident
a more advantageous arrangement
could be made. Consequently bids We're
advertised fer and Treasurer Gerhart
conducted the sale as provided by law.
The bids of the twelve firms varied
only in the amount of premium to be
paid, and the result is considered a vic
tory for Marshalltown and very advan-
tageous to the district. The rate at
which the bonds were refunded and the
premium paid reduces the actual in
terest to 81 per cent. The bids of the
different financial institutions follow:
Marshalltown State Bank-s57,700
and bonds.
Thompson, Tenney & Crawford
Company, Chicago, s57,SO5 and bonds.
N. W. Harris & Co., Chicago-$57,0S0

The bid Of the Marshalltown bank
was equivalent to S57,735. as the bonds,
which are to be furnished, cost about
s35.
Sealed bids were received, but ma
jority of the bidders had representa-
tives present. The members of the
school board and Treasurer Gerhart are
gratified because of their success in re-
funding the bonds at a low rate of in

Attention Because of His Services.

rshaIitown's Train Caller Attracting
Attention Because of His Services.
Marshalltown's hard working train
caller, Charley Deuel., is better appre-
ciated by the travelling public than by
the depot loafers, and his endeavors in
behalf of those who are unused to tray
cling or who become confused because
of the many trains and the throngs at
the depot during the morning and eve
ming hours are attracting the attention
of the outside world. Charley is the
subject of complimentary editorial
article in tue May number of the
County superintendent Monthly,
magazine published by Hammond Bros.
81 Stephens at Fremont, Neb. The arti
Gle is captioned, 'Is 1t Worth While? 2"
and is as follows:

see a very substantial depot and a lot
Of people coming and going, but you

calls the trains. You will see him hur-
ryirlg thrun the crowd and hear his
strong clear voice as he calls out, "All
aboard! The Colorado special train go

because, unlike most other men of his
occupation, you can understand what

WORLDS FAIR FEATURES.
Inner Courts of the Great Buildings
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition.

Inner Courts of the Great Buildings at
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition.
Expeditions are architectural teach
ers, cultivating and disseminating a
love for the beautiful.
The court OF honor at the Columbian
exposition in 1898 marked classic re-
naissance in the United States. 1t was
far-reaching in its good effect on public
taste and architectural Judgment.
The Paris exposition of 1900 illus
trated the beauty and fancy of the
Modern French Classic school, and the
Pan American exposition showed the
charming effects and the detail CT the
Spanish renaissance. The pergola was
one of the striking architectural feat
ures of the Pan-American exposition.
That enterprise demonstrated the ar
tistic possibilities of the pergola. To
tell the story of the inner court and
show it's use in architecture has been
the aim of many of the architects of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition. This
court feature will be interesting be-
cause 1t has rot been used to any extent
in any previous expositions. There are
probably no more interesting or roman-
tic features to the buildings of Spain,
France and Italy than the courts of the
palaces. Whether we view the digni-
fled simplicity of the Italian courts or
the more picturesque treatment OF the
courts of Spain during the Picturesque
period we are filed with admiration at
the architectural development of these
interiors.

Supreme Court Decision.

Boardman, Aldrich & Lawrence have
received the opinion in the case OF
Frudden Lumber Company against H
A. Kinnan, appealed by them to the
supreme court The supreme court
establishes lien against defendants
dwelling for S134.79, holding that ma
terial to that amount was actually used
in the building. incidentally the SUI
preme court sustains two importan!
propositions of law relied upon by APP
pellants. First that it is the furnish
ing" of the material for a building
that entities the material man to q
lien and that its actual use in the
building need not be shown. Second
that the property holder has no right
to disregard the lien filed by plaintiff
and pay other claims, even tho prior
in point of time. These are important
questions to material men and property
owners, and the. opinion seems to be
final upon these points.

haps in the midst of the crying OF his
wares some old woman may appear
with a load of bundles, wobbling to-
ward the station. He rushes down the
platform to meet her, takes her bun
dies and pilots her to seat. over the
noise of trains and many voices you
hear him telling her all about the ar
rival and departure of her train and the
hour she will arrive at her destination.
The old lady looks relieved and CRATE
full to him. She feels perfectly safe In
his care. You will hear him tell her not
to worry-stay right where she is Till
he comes for her. Perhaps he does not
get to call his papers again before an
other train comes in over another road,
and he hurries out to meet it. rms
time it may be some child he finds trav-
cling alone, and must change cars. He
takes charge at once and the child
clings TO his hand as If he were an old
time friend. May be it will be some
helpless traveller bound for a higher
climate, up next to the Rockies, and if
so it is all the same, Charley is there to
help him tenderly down the steps and
to a seat in the waiting room.
Il know that for many years as
have passed to and fro thru this little
city, he has always been there. Sum
mer and winter alike, his cheerful voice
rings out clear. like that of an honest
man. / know that he does his work as
well now as he did many years ago
when l first noticed his unusual kind
ness and energy, and | know that his
name is Charley. In addition to that l
learned one other fact that is very in
teresting, and that is this: He gets no
pay from the railroad company for his
services, nor tips from travellers. He
simply sells newspapers about the depot
before him that needs to be done-that
no one else will do.
SIS it worth while? That's the ques-
ton scores of people around the depot
at Marshalltown ask themselves, and
most of them know just how to answer
1t. With one voice they tell Charley he
is fool to do 1T. But Charley never
falters. He doesn't think much about
it. He could not help lending helping
hand to the needy. He is selling papers
to the travellers. He helps them off and
On trains because he enjoys it.
The railroad company probably new
or had it's attention called to the re-
markable service this man renders 1t.
The men about the depot ridlcule him.
They do not see the grateful look and
thousand of blessings travellers heap on
his head in passing. They cannot I'M
derstand that human effort has any
other than material value. Nor do
they know that some day Charley will
be promoted to a higher station. Faith
fulness like his, service like his. is in
great demand and some discerning one
will find him in time and then Charley
will find that his work for all these
years will be settled for in money, not
he has been paid once all
he asked-gratitude.
1t is always worth while to do our
best. pay or no pay. No one can grow
unless he does his best. The man who
is in constant fear lest he will at some
moment do something for
which he will not be literally paid in
money, is an extremely poor citizen,
and sure to die unloved and unsung."

ton for summer heat and the archi-
| tects of the exposition have set them
selves to give the visitor promise of
shade and GOODNESS turnout the build
| ing of the main exhibit group. This the
architects have done by means of col
| lonades and inner courts. In Rome In
ancient times the designers of build
| ings had to contend with similar Gil
matte condition. The old Roman man
sions, as shown to moderns in the ex-
cavations at Pompeii, had inner courts
open to the sky with q "compluvium'
to take care of the rainfall. These de-
vices to take care of the rain resulted in
basins of water in the centers of the
courts, which formed a charming feat
ure of the Roman domestic arrange
ments. They overcame the heat and
dust of the Roman noon.
st. Louis has learned a lesson from
the Romans All but three Of the
buildings will have inner courts. In
no former exposition has their court
received such attention. AT Buffalo
courts were laid out in some of the
larger buildings, but the demand for
exhibit space caused them to be rooted
over and made part of the main struc-
ture. In each of the buildings at st.
Louis the court will be different in de-
sign and shape and the visitor will not
have gained the full import Of this
architectural feature until he has seen
the courts in all the buildings.
The court of the liberal arts build
ing, designed by Barnett, Haynes &
Barnett, will be carried out in the Ital-
ian School of Architecture and will be
enclosed by colonades embellished with
rare statues and beautiful arabesques.
The cloisters formed by these colonades
will afford cool promenades for the Wis
itors to the fair during the heated term.
1t is the intention Of the architects to
have this court laid out with flower
beds and to install hanging gardens at
the attic story line. In these gardens
there will be groups of statuary by re-
productions from antiques. In the CEN
ter Of the court there will be beautiful
basin of water in whose limpid depths
will be reflected the lissic lines OF col
onade and garden. This basin is sur
rounded by balustrades and approached
by broad flights of steps. In the angles
of the court there will be Italian foun-
tains enriched with statuary. The gar
dens will furnish visitors delightful
place for resting and for sight seeing.
The inner walls of the court entrances
will be decorated with mural paintings
in the style of Alma Tadema. These
courts will be one Of the charming feat
ures of the exposition. and when illum-
mated at night with glastening cas-
cades, flowers and fountains, will form
an enchanting picture transporting the
visitors In spirit, centuries backward to
the golden ages Of romance and art. The
court features of the Louisiana pur-.
chase exposition will be remembered
when this exposition shall have passed
into the land of memories.

THE FIRST BALES RECEIVED.
The Crop Apparently Not So Late
as Reported.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Aug. 9.-FIrst cotton bales
have been reported from several
towns IN various sections of the state
during the past few days, and
the usual fancy prices have been
paid by local buyers. In a number
of instances country merchants offer
cash premiums for first bales, and
thus engender much rivalry among
the planters to get bale of the
staple on the market at the earliest
possible moment.
The early arrival of first bales this
year seemingly contradicts the state
ment of crop experts that the season
is from two to three weeks late, and
in quite number of counties pick
