In the interim since 1869, when he oc-

at Fall River. He attended college at
Monmouth, H., leaving there during his
Junior year to take the position WIN

Some Wdsh-Ddy
Suggestions
Clothes Saver.

Always clean open work or lace
shirt waists, handkerchiefs' doiiles'
table covers and the like by soaking
one-half to one hour in the suds OF Pc

not be used.
Striped shirt waists or colored wash

can generally be cleaned perfectly by
q few rubs on the board for the collars
and cuffs.
Do not rub woolens any more than
necessary, because rubbing takes of

4The Penitent" Plays to Big Business
at the odeon on Thanksgiving Eve

The Penieent rays 10 O'9
at the Odeon on Thanksgiving Eve
ming.
To those who like to sit thru four
act drama that deals only with the dark
side of life, "The Penitent" as pre-
scented at the Odeon Thursday evening,
must have been treat. The play is
one of Hall Gaines most typical stor-
les. and fairly reeks with mans dupli-
city and dishonor, and woman's shame.
The story of the plot deals too much
with the undesirable and distasteful In
life to please those who go to play to
be entertained. 1t appealed to many
in the audience, judging from the APP
plause that greeted the climaxes. The
company was fairly capable one, Mr..
John Spaulding, as attorney, being es-
pecially good w. f. Ryan, as Hugh
Ritson, the crippled brother, is also de-
serving of mention, altho at critical
moments he was inclined to forget that
he was a cripple. AS a whole the pro-
duction reminds one of some bad
dream from which he is glad to escape
az the curtain closes on the last tragedy
of the closing act.
From a box office standpoint the pro-
duction was success. as the house was
well filed Manager Busby took a diff
ferent tack this year, providing medi-
class attraction for Thanksgiving
instead of one Of the highest class. Last
Thanksgiving he showed Herbert KEEL
cey and Effie Shannon in "Her Lord
and Master" to business that was but
fair, and entirely below what the STAN
dard Of the attraction called for. The
attraction Thursday night, however
was a good one for the money.

A PLEASANT SURPRISE.
In Store for Those Who Doubt.

In store TOR nose VINO Doubt.
When you read that sufferer Of
many years standing has been COM
pletely restored to health by using
Smiths Cure-all, you are inclined to
doubt the statement and, in fact, have
no belief in it whatever. The reason
for this is that so much is claimed for
the Cure-all 1t is impossible for anyone
to believe it; if the advertiser confined
his claims to the curing of one disease,
as do the proprietors of Pyramid Pile
Cure, readers would have much more
faith in published testimonials. Those
familiar with this great remedy know
that testimonials as to its merit may
be relied upon implicitly, also that the
cures brought about by it's use are lit
tie short of marvellous. The genuine
ness of the testimonial here given is
vouched for and is but one of thouS-
ands received.

of 50-cent Pyramid Pile Cure that en-

The two months work that has now
been accomplished has been rewarded
with results beyond the anticipations of
Manager Mathews. In reality only
about seven weeks of actual work have
been done. the remainder of the time
having been consumed by the workmen
in sitting around and meditating on the
beautiful rain. That the plant should
be so far along is wonder to all, and

ton of the plant over three quarters of

that the main building will be extended

been built with that idea in view. for

Many Spectators Hear Evidence
in the Gather Attempted
Murder Case
STATE RESTS THIS MORNING
Defense Begins Its Testimony and Has
Large Number of Witnesses to Ex-
amine-Furnishes Evidence to Show
That Gather Was Drunk When Crime
Was Committed.

There is probably more general in
terest manifested in the case OF the
state of Iowa VS.. Thomas Gather, for
assault with intent to commit murder,
than any other that has been tried in
the district court this term. unless.
perhaps, that of the libel action
brought against the T.-R. by B. R.
Crawford, of Newburg. A large num-
Der of spectators was in the court room
this morning, when the state finished
up its evidence and that of the de-
Tense began.
But two witnesses for the state We're
|eSamined this morning, and they were
recalled to furnish proof of the assault
and the manner in which it was COM
mitted on the morning of June l. The
state has proved that Gather did cut
James II. Ellis with new jack knife,
which was bought with the evident
purpose of committing the crime, or at
least that the knife was purchased
only a few moments before the cutting
occurred. That Gather did not cut
Ellis the defense is not trying to dis
prove, but it is aiming to establish
the fact that Gather was under the in
fluence of liquor when the crime was
committed, and that he had been intox-
icated for several days, at any rate
since, the Saturday evening before. The
defense claims that Gather was in such
a state of mind. as the result of his
hard drinking, that he did not know
what he was doing, and really did not
know that he had committed a crime
until o'clock on the afternoon of Mon
day, when he threw off the effects of
the liquor after long sleep. The de-
Tense has summoned twenty-five wit
nesses to testify. apd the case can not
be finished today, as Judge Burnham
had hoped. 1t is likely. however, that
the case will go to the jury early to-
morrow after1oon.
The following jury is hearing the
evidence: Walter Menter, George
Trautmann, f. c. Weatherly, f. w.
Steiner. c. Saylor, w. A. Taggart, C. P.
McKinnon, w. f. Weir, Emery Mason,

Testimony in Hisgason Case.

of Higgason vs.. The Marshall Oil Com
pany, which was begun earlier in the
term, but which was postponed by the

Efficiency Of Postal Service.

The dead letter office of the govern
ment postoffice department is noted for
its efficiency in locating the persons to
whom mail matter has been sent, where
portions of the addresses have been
omitted Many stories have been pub
lished regarding incidents where the
workings of this department, Of which
so little is generally known, were
brought before the public. A probable
common incident of the dispatch with
which the receiver of letter, whose
address was insufficient, was recently
brought to notice in this city. A lady
received letter from a relative in
one of the eastern states, that had
been mailed with her name, street and
number and state on the envelope. but
the town, thru neglect, had been omit
ted. Despite the fact that the town
was not given it was but ten days from
the date that the letter had been mailed
until it was received by the lady to
whom it belonged In the meantime
it had been sent to the dead letter off,
ce and they had there, without even
opening the envelope ferreted out the
person for whom it was intended.
A little inquiry into the matter thru
the local postoffice revealed that the
government had, without doubt, in this
instance, used a street directory, which
volume shows that there are two cities
in Iowa that have streets by the same
name as the one on the envelope. 1t
also gives the numbers of the resi-
dences on each of these streets in the
two towns. This is doubtless how the
matter was decided, for the number
of the residence on the envelope was
included in the numbers of the Mar
shalltown street, but not of the other
Iowa city. The name of the town was
added to the envelope in red ink, and
in due time it reached the lady for
uho,,, II was intended
