APPLES IN ABUNDANCE.
Are Being Shipped Into the Northwest
In Large Quantities.

st. Paul, Nov. 4.-Apples are being
poured into the northwest. Every lit
tie hamlet in Minnesota and North and
South Dakota has received at least one
carload. They come mostly from the
south and east and as usual Missouri
is getting the largest part of the trade.
The unusually good crop, which is es-
timated at 100000 barrels, against
27,000,000 of last year, and the hne
weather have combined to break the
record in the number of growers who
are shipping direct to the northwest
this fall.
An unusual feature of the trade is the
large quantity of bulk apples shipped
from the southwest. Being thrown
loose into the car. they are not such
good keepers as the barrel apples, and
so are disposed of at much lower
price.
Up to date, the quality of the apples
shipped has been Inferior but from now
on it is expected that a higher grade
will appear, as number of Minneapolis
wholesalers have made good purchases
for storing, and these will be here soon.
The Ben Davis, apple experts say, is
doomed. It's proftablencss from COM
mercial standpoint resulted in over
production, which has caused a dis
couraging fall in the price.

Stuart Robson in Delightful Presen-
tation of Shakessearean Comedy at
the Odeon.
Stuart Robson, actor of the ola
school,, a lover of the classics and
portrayor of the legitimate because of
his love for it, was the attraction at the
Odeon Monday evening. Mr.. Robson
and an excellent company appeared IN
one of ShakespeareS most brilliant
productions, 1.-THE Comedy Of Errors
Mr.. Robson had excellent support in his
entire cast, and especially noticeable
was that of his double, Dronio of
Ephesus, Clifford Leigh, Edwin Holt.
as Antipholus of Syracuse, Adolph
Jackson's Antipholus of Ephesus, Miss
Eleanor Barry and Miss Frances Ora
ham Mayo. Mr. Robson himself ap-
peared as Dromeo Of Syracuse. The
lines abound in high class wit turnout
and the entire production We all that
could have been asked for. Tru> was
hard to realize that man Of u, APP
pearing in character bordering on the
Juvenile could so deceive an audience
behind his paint, but this Mr.. Robson
does The company Jared the same
fate as did Louis James and Frederick
Warde last week, and played to many
empty seats. Too many good attrac-
lions for the week. and the general
failing in popularity for the higher
order of the Shakespearean drama, are
responsible for the poor business to
which each of these superb attractions
played.

ELECTION BOOMERANG.
Considered as Good Joke and Has Not
The Desired Effect.

Considered as Good Joke and Has Not
':he Desired Effect.
As usual, the democratic one-man
machine threw his boomerang on the
eve of elet ton, or rather in the hours
of the early morning. When the polls
were opened this morning yellow fever
handbills were posted on the street cor
ners neares st the polls warning the pub
lie of the iniuuities of trusts" The
posters were printed on the backs of
yellow" sheets. the other side contain
ing sample ballot printed in the Re-
Hector Office. The important side Of the
quarter sheets bears the earmarks of
the Demo cratic Lord High Dictator,
and reads as follows:
What closed the glucose and threw
500 men o at of employment?
.i-..sf,. TRUSTS.
What moved the Iowa Central offices
to Minneapolis and took its 100 en-
ployes and their families UP there?
TRUSTS AND RAILROAD CoMBI-
NATIONS.
What makes coal IS per cent higher
than last year?
TRUSTS.
What makes meat s5 per cent higher
than last year?
TRUSTS.
What makes it cost you s5 per cent
more to live than last year?
TRUSTS.
Do you receive IS per cent larger
wages?
What party has been in power and
ty.
If you Il Ike it vote the republican tick
ct, if not then vote the democratic tick
ct, because they can not make it worse
and they claim they will help us.
While republicans in general con-
sidered the effort a huge joke 1t is
interesting to refer to the badness Of
the false insinuations. A leading mar
ket was telephoned and the butcher
says round steaks, largely bought by
the laboring people, ate the same price
today tn at they We're one year ago.
The coal dealers report an increase of
s1.25 on soft coal, and an advance of
81 on the anthracite product over
year ago. A leading contractor says
he is paying SITE for unskilled labor
this year when last year he obtained
the same class for $1.25 and $1.5O, and
for the services of mechanics he has
to pay from $3.50 to So, as against
1925 to $3.50 last year The reader
may draw his own conclusion.

Old Innocence.

Marshalltown theatergoers will be
glad to hear that Tim Murphy is soon
to appear here in "Old Innocence" a
comedy that is imbued with the in
gradients that the purer minded most
desire.
Not an offensive line or situation
mars it's happy progress. The dialogue
fairly scintilates with epigramatic wit
and brilliant situations interpreted by
an unusually clever company of far
|ceurs, whose names in cast means
thorough knowledge of the art. The
individual effort of Mr.. Tim Murphy,
as Jason Green" the aged philanthro
pist proclaims him an artist of inter-
national reputation. Miss Dorothy
Sherrod, as May Green" Jason's wife
has a part perhaps the best in which
tshe has ever been seen. The remaining
characters are in the hands of COM
petent players who help form COM
pany that for individual brilliancy is
far superior to any that has been seen
in support of this popular star.
Mr.. Murphys appearance in this city
will be at the Odeon on next Friday
levening.

No Excitement About the Polls

Indications Are That for the Most Part
There Is But Little Scratching

Democratic Boomerang Considered
as Joke and Hopeless Effort.

The general election Of 1902 will be
remembered as one of the most quiet
in the history of the city. There is alb
solutely no excitement manifested at
voters are apparently going to the polls,
casting their blanket sheets and going
about their business. But very little
work is being done by any of the can
didates, which gives the appearance
that nearly all have concluded that
straight tickets are being voted.
The indications in most of the wards
are that there is but little scratching,
altho claim is being made in the
Fourth that considerable marking up
of the ballots; is being INDUCED in. The
Second led iii the vote at o'clock, with
the Fifth at the bottom of the list In
the Fourth l.he vote was also small at
this hour, lad those about the polls
said they had never seen the 1evee" so
quiet on an election day.
At O'Clock the First ward had polled
204 votes oft of a total registration of
655, and with nearly TOO voters in the
precinct. II was a little light for the
middle of the day, and not quite up to
standard. The Second had cast 325 out
of a total re gistration of CTS. or almost
half In Thu. Third 261 votes were cast
at 2 a'clock and in this ward there are
about S25 votes, and a total registration
of 697. The Fourth had but 154 votes
in out of total registration of about
500, and the Fifth 102, out of about 500
qualified voters.
The judges and clerks in the different
precincts are as follows:

HOW CUSTER WAS SLAIN.
Old Indian Named Appearing Elk
Claims to Have Shot the General.

Philadelphia, Nov. 4.--According to a
story told by former Sioux chief, now
an Episcopalian rector, the man who
killed General Custer was Appearing
Elk. The former Sioux is the Rev.
Philip Daloria, of Flora, S. D. He says
old Chief Appearing Elk, and knowing
that about year ago he converted the
that the warrior had been in the Little
Big Horn battle, asked him who had
killed Custer.
II did," he said. The story as told
to the rector by the old warrior fol-
lows:
1--WE had surrounded the last cluster
of soldiers when my pony was shot
from under me. When got on my feet
again I discovered that I had been
wounded Suddenly man in blue
doomed up in front of me.
II knew he was a big chief. He was
swaying like a drunken man from ex-
haustion and loss of blood because of
many bullet and arrow wounds. 1 felled
him with my tomahawk and then sat on
his body to be sure that should not be
robbed of my spoils. In order to make
doubly sure took the revolver from
the holster of the dead man and stuck it
III my belt"
Appearing Elk died last spring.

The members of the First Church of

of the ground and the furnishings.
The congregation was first organized
April 80, 1892, by one of Mrs. Eddy's
loyal and faithful students, with twenty

worthy addition to the architecture or
Marshalltown, as well as a dignified
and restful home for the congregation
for many years to come. Christian Sci
entists look upon their church buildings
as concrete manifestation OF the splr-
itual truths of Christian Science, and
consequently in the present structure

indeed the contrary is true, yet the
quiet distinction of the simple, deeply
overhanging cornices and gables, the
soft mellow mosaics of the loaded win
dows and the purity of the color

fail to make a building that the. people
of Marshalltown will enjoy and be
proud of.
The general contract for the building
was awarded to Mr.. Fred Nissen, of
Marshalltown, and it will be con-

Hugh M. G. Garden, of Chicago, the ar

the fact that the city prohibits the
piling of ashes, except In certain
places, and the building of bont1res
likewise, both are disregarded openly
Many of the rear yards of the stores OF
this city have the appearance of never
having been cleaned, judging from the
accumulation of miscellaneous refuse.
The railroads also come in for their
share of disregarding ordinances. Two
of these provide that trains shall not
be run thru the corporate limits of the
city at a rate to exceed six miles per
hour, and another that no train shall
blockade a public crossing for longer
than five minutes. Anyone who has
occasion to visit the depot district need
not be told how often each day these
are disregarded.
While all of these are small matters,
yet the result from many of them
may at any time prove serious, and a
more careful observance would not only
in many cases improve the citys APP
rearance, but would also do much to
improve city government. Those that
have been mentioned are but very
few observed in a half hours walk
about town, and represent but small
per cent of the many ordinances that
are practically dead.
