Little Helen Gitlespad, of Near
Dunbar, May Die from Fl
fects of Hog Bites
SHEPHERD PUP SAVES HER LIFE
Playing With the Dog, Near Her Fa-
theirs Barn, Swine Attack Her-Body
FearfulIy Mangied, But Dog Fights
Away the Savage Brutes-chid's
Condition Very Critical.

Helen Gitlespad, aged years, daugh-
ter of A. A. Gitlespad, a Norwegian
farmer living two miles south of Lie
Grand, or one and one-half miles south
east of Dillon, in the Dunbar settle
ment, is lying in very critical condi-
ton as the result of bites received by
vicious hogs. The savage brutes at
tackled her while she was playing with
a shepherd pup near the barn, and
would have instantly killed her had it
not been for the faithful little animal
first battle in defense of his little mis-
tress.
The child had no fear of the animals,
which We're roofing about the barn
yard, neither did her parents, who had
never seen any indication that two of
the large Jersey reds, part of the
Gitlespad herd, We're inclined to be vi
cious. The little girl was romping with
her dog, a shepherd puppy, when sud-
denly the large hogs made for her and,
before she realized that they meant to
harm her, had knocked her down and
were chewing her flesh. The little one
screamed for help, but before it could
arrive the hogs had succeeded In fright
fully mangling her. Great gashes were
cut in her face, head and one hand, so
that the physician, who was called
shortly, was compelled to take thirty
stitches to close them. Only the brave
fight of the puppy prevented the ami
mails from instantly killing the child.
The dog showed his strain of collie and
evidently realized that his little mis-
tress was in dire straits. He jumped
upon the hogs, biting at their feet and
worrying them TO such an extent that
they were not able to accomplish the
ruin they sought. The dog kept up his
attack until the father of the little one
arrived and drove off. the animals with

HAVE you ANY OF THESE
Symptoms Of Very Common Trou-
hle2


There is no disease so common in the
United States as catarrh, because it
appears in so many forms and attacks
SO many different organs.
1t is common mistake to suppose
that catarrh is confined to the nose and
throat Aiay Inflammation of the mu-
cous membrane, wherever located, ac-
companied by abnormal secretions, is
catarrh. C:ltarrh of stomach or bladder,
or intestines, is nearly as common as
nasal catai.rh, and much more, serious,
altho it is true that stomach catarrh
and catarrh of other internal organs is
the result Of neglected nasal catarrh.
A new remedy has recently appeared
which, so far as tested. seems to be re-
markedly effective in promptly curing
catarrh, wherever located. The prep
aration is sold by druggists generally
under the name of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, and in addition to being very
palatable and convenient, possesses ex-
traordinary merit, in many cases giving
immediate relief from the coughing,
hawking and constant clearing of the
throat and head, those symptoms with
which every one is familiar who has
ever suffered from colds in the head
and throat
Catarrh is simply a continuation of
these symptoms until the trouble be-
comes chronic and grows gradually
worse from year to year.
Stuflrt's Catarh Tablets, are compos-
ed of Hydrastin, Red Gum and similar
antiseptics and catarrh specifics, from
which 1t will be seen that no secret is
made of the ingredients and also that
no mineral poisons are used, as is the
case with many well known catarrh
medicines.
For catarrh of the nose, throat bron-
chial tubes, for catarrh of stomach, in
testines or bladder 40 preparation is
so safe ami gives such rapid and per-
smanent results as Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets.
All druggists sell them at so cents for
full sized package. You can use them
with assurance that you will not cont
tract the cocaine or morphine habit as
the results from this catarrh cure are
apparent from the first days use

Westerners are Waking Up.

Little by little the people of the West are
awaking to realization of the fact that canned
meats are just as desirable as fresh meats.
They are palatabie, wholesome, nutritious and
economical Miners, rancherS, and others, who
are unable to secure fresh meats have used
canned meats for years. City jewellers are fol-
lowing their example.
The housewife who can not find what she
wants among the canned meat products of the
7Cudahy Packing Co is hard to please. For
Breakfast what is better than Vienna sausage?
For lunch she can place before her lord and
master a delicious lunch tongue. For supper.
pork and beans. Sliced beef makes delicious
sandwiches For special occasions a recep-
ton or dance-there is nothing finer than an
OK tongue.
- The only advice that need be given the
user of canned meats is this: Order Rex
brand. Do this and you can depend upon get
ting the best on the market.

SAYS HE MEANT MURDER.
Albert Walker, Who Attempted to Kill
Mrs. Ben Oleson, confesses That He
Would Have Killed the Woman and
Her ProfLa,

v
Her Brother.
Albert Walker, the Northwestern
section man who attempted to murder
Mrs. Ben Oleson Wednesday night, and
was only prevented from so doing by
the brave fight that Mrs. Oleson put up
for her life, admitted this morning that
he would have killed her, also her bro
Their, John Johnson, who was in the
house at the time. Walker was given
his hearing in the mayors court this
morning and confessed his intentions.
He saS: Il had intended putting five
shots in her and five in Johnson"
Walker stated that he had purchased
the revolvers for protection against
Johnson, whom, he claimed, had threat
ened to kill him. When Walker at
tackled Johnson with pick last
"Wednesday he says Johnson threatened
to kill him afterwards for revenge.
AS Mrs. Oleson did not put in an APP
pearance at the trial to prefer charges
against him, he was held on a charge
of carrying concealed weapons, and was
sentenced to a fine of $50 or thirty days
in jail at hard work.
Altho Walker had the money when he
was arrested he chose the Jail sentence.
Mrs. Oleson and her brother are in con-
ference with County Attorney Stone
this afternoon, and it is very likely that
Walker will be held to the grand jury
with charge of assault to commit
murder
Commissioner w. S. Devine, of the
board of insanity, made an examination
Of the man Friday, and as he did not
show sufficient evidence of being insane

MORE MONEY MISSED.
Mrs. Thomas Rocky Has Money Taken
and Thinks the Silver Polish Agent Is

Mrs. Thomas Hockey Has Money Taken
and Thinks the Silver Polish Agent Is
Guilty.
Mrs. Thomas Hockey, of North Sec
ond avenue, thinks she was also VIC
tim of the young woman who purloined
81 from Mrs. j. A. Cattell a few days
ago. Mrs. Hockey says that a young
lady selling silver u lsh called at her
home Tuesday and succeeded in selling
her a box of her goods. While at the
Hockey home, so Mrs. hockey says, the
young lady asked for drink, which
she went into another room and got for
her. She never gave the matter an
other thought until she read in Thurs
days T.-R. of the Cattel case. Mrs.
Rockey at once went to the bureau
drawer, in which she kept her money,
and found 81 missing. She had not had
occasion to look into the drawer since,
and thinks the woman stole it. She
thinks this is the same woman who
visited the Catteli home and who lives
on North Third avenue.

LOCAL COMMENT.


/ No reform was ever instituted that
did not have to pass thru its ordeal OF
fire before it proved it's claim to per-
manency. Such is the present expert
ence of the new water ordinance. NO
such Juror has been raised over any
municipal matter in years. But, is this
permiscuous criticism justified? In the
first place it should be remembered
that business methods have long eeen
totally lacking in the water depart
ment. Scores of patrons nave USED
city water for years for Whlch tney
have never paid a cent, the fault pelng
due to incomplete records which 1ailed
to keep these patrons In sight. Like
wise faulty records have, In many
cases. failed to show the collection OF
past rents which had been paid and
for which receipts had been given, al
tho there is no suspicion that the city
did not receive the money. Added to
this situation has been hundreds of
services not properly reported, bath
tubs used and not paid for, hose taps
in use but not reported, etc. With all
these inequalities it has been care
fully estimated that of the 5l3,0oO,000
gallons pumped annually fully one-half
has been wasted; gone, no one knows
where, hence it has been impossible to
avoid turning river water into the
mains at times and more wells have
been continually demanded. The pro-
lection of public health and fair adj
ministration has demanded a change.
Facing this situation the city council
has set to work bravely to bring order
out of chaos. For nearly year the
CITY clerk has been working overtime
to systematize his office and the water
committee has been laboring upon
plan of new rates which should ac-
complish three things; stop the Woe
full waste of water, make every man
pay on an equal basis for what he uses
and still furnish the people of Mar
shalltown with the cheapest water SER
vice of any city of its class in the
United States. Reports from seventy
five cities We're tabulated and COM
pared and for each class the minimum
average was taken for Marshaltown
hence the council defiantly declares
thGt their water rates will challenge
comparison with any other city, mum
icipal plant or private.
1t has been the purpose of the coun-
ell to encourage the use of water meters
which allows a patron to pay for just
what he uses and the meter rates have
been placed at figure as low as
any meter rate in any city in Iowa. Tho
fiat rate has been changed from q
basis determined by the number of
faucets to one determined by the num-
Der of rooms in house which is the
basis used for fiat rates all over the /
country. Inequalities still exist even
upon this basis but no more so thar
upon the old. No fiat rate can be de
vised by man to fit all cases perfectly
Under the old plan if a residence was
supplied with bath room and closet both
up stairs and down there was no more
water used by the same sized family
than IL such conveniences We're pro-
vided on one floor only, yet the charge
would have been double. The pre-
sumption was that house with two
water closets and two bath rooms would
rouse more people as rule than the
louse with only one such convenience

Police Points.

When Agent j. w. Crandall went on
duty at the Fifth avenue station of
the Rock Island this morning he
found there an old man who seemed
to have completely lost his way and
he was unable to tell where his home
was or where he was going. He had
baggage. but no ticket, and he could
not give any information as to how
he got into the city. lie finally gave
his name as Chris Hitler and said he
lived in Hardin county. Mr.. Crandall
turned him over to the police. After
reaching the station the old man re
gained his faculties and gave the adj
dress of son-in-Iaw in Davenport, to
which point he was sent.
William Eckermann last evening
caused the arrest of Sam +. Jones for
threatening TO knock his head off"
1t seems that Jones accused Ecker
mann of talking about the Jones fam
iIy and that he made the above threat
to be carried into effect if the talk
was not stopped. Eckermann claims
he does not know Jones and that he
never saw him till after being arrest
ed. After a spicy hearing i'm which
Jones impeached the vcracity of the
police and the Witnesses for the state
and criticised the court, the magis-
trate imposed u fine of 81 for breach
of the peace.
