congratulations from every side ON
the promptness of his recovery.

Line Ia Grounded.

Finally one of the owners plug
ged" his instrument, grounding the
line and throwing il all out of use.
Another member, wishing to use the
line i'm the opposite direction from
the place plugged. cut the wire and
so was enabled to get service one
way. There the situation rests.
Only three or four members can use
their instruments. everyone is dis
satisfied and there seems to be no
redress without going to law, which
course, if il accomplished anything.
would certainly cost more than the
whole property involved is worth.
Several meetings of the members
have been called to discuss the mat
ter. but a quorum cannot be gotten
together.

The next person TO get the tub is
the cooper. He sets the hoops. The
hoops are not nailed. but fastened by
means of notches cut i'm the ends of
the strips. This finishes the tub
proper, but the lid or head must
still be made. The material for the
heads is first cut into the proper
lengths. then il is grooved and fitted
together. Then il is sent to the cir
cular saw and from there To the
place where the edges are finished.
This completes the tub
The slaves are usually made of
white ash. while the hoops are of
black. After all this work the tubs
retail from between 23 TO - cents.
About $500 of the tubs can be got
ten into a car. One reason why the
tubs can be made so cheaply is the
fact that the manufacturer never
has to buy any fuel. All the shaw

carried by means of large pipes to

There is more catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than in all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies.
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease,
and, therefore, requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by +. j. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio. is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10
drops to- Il teaspoonful. 1t acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails
to cure. Send for circulars and tes-

ten itself into partial running shape.
About fifty men are employed at the
present time and - more will be
added soon.
All of the company's new machin-
cry has been gotten into place. but
none of the old machinery has vet
been moved over from Davenport and
will not be until the new addition
of men is put to work. The east
end of the building is being used
for manufacturing purposes while
the west end is used for
storage rooms and offices. Later
on the extreme west end will be
used exclusively for storage of the
creamery supplies. The daily output
of the plant with the present reduced
force of men and machinery is about
l.j0O tubs per day. When the new
force gets to work the output will
be doubled.
How Tubs Are Made.
1t is very interesting To note the
way in which the raw material is
turned out into the finished product
during few minutes. First the
slaves are planed ON both sides. then
they are sawed in two i'm the center.
after which they are fitted onto

But Boland's Gift Enterprise Appears
 Not to Have Prospered.
 New Haven, Dec 10.-The detective bureau is Investigating the record of James Roland, who was arrested Mon day night by Officer James Bellman, on a charge of idleness. Bolan had a new game, so simple that it appeared hardly possible it could succeed. Last week he took orders in the tenement district for package of needles. He represented that each package would be aGseompanied with piece of crock cry as gift. He probably saw some 50 or 60 people about the scheme.
 Monday he started over the ground again. He did not, however, offer to deliver the needles or the crockery, but tried to collect the money.
 A list of five or six persons from whom he wanted money has been ob- tained by the police.
 Bolan was arraigned in city court yesterday morning. His case was continued, so that something more can be learned about him.

GAGGED A TELEPHONE GIRL.
Bank Robbers Also sandbagged Pc

 liceman-Got Little Booty.
 Pittsburg, Pa, Dec 10.-A band of safe-crackers visited the town of IT. win, twenty miles east of Pittsburg, yesterday morning, but after assault ing William Weigel, the night police man, binding and gagging Bessie Full ton, operator at the telephone, and wrecking the big steel safe of the First National bank, they got only a small booty.
 The assault upon Weigel took place a block away from the bank building The policeman was sandbagged and then carried to the telephone office, which is over the bank. Before the girl in charge could send in an alarm she was oyerpoWered by two members of the gang. Another who seemed to understand the switchboard, cut off all means of communication, while the pair gagged the girl and tied her to the steam radiator. Weigle, who was still unconscious, was bound, gagged and left lying on the floor.
 The safe-crackers then broke into the bank, and the girl upstairs was al most frightened to death by the seven explosions that followed The vault doors were forced open, but the out laws could not break into the strong box, although they almost wrecked the building trying toNdo it.
 A Miss Taylor, who lives, across, the str2ct, heard the explosion and opened her bedroom window to look out. A watcher for the burglars saw her and fired two shots, neither of which took effect Satisfied at length that they could not reach the box in which the bank kept most of it's money. the thieves took a bag of silver dollars, a bundle of pennies. some articles found in the safe deposit boxes rented by the bank, and about $1 O00 in money and l stamps belonging to the postmaster. An alarm was finally given by Miss Fulton. who worked herself loose from 1 the ropes that bound her She ran some distance to the railroad station and told the story to the man in charge l of the office. The thieves left the town i in a stolen vehicle.
