Good Samples of Timothy.

j. R. Canham, who lives out on the
Fuller farm about three miles west
Of the city, brought in some samples
of clover and timothy hay which he
raised on his farm this year, each Of
which stood a trifie over four feet
high. Mr.. Canham sowed the seed
about two years ago in soil that his
neighbors all around him said would
never produce anything in the shape
of tame hay. However he thought
he would give it a trial. Last fall
it appeared to him by the way the
seed was coming up that his neigh
bors were about right and he plowed
it under with the exception of strip
of ground which he left to see what
would happen to the seed. He said
that the clover and timothy he raised
on the strip Of ground was just a
good as any he ever raised in Iowa or
Illinois and it proved conclusively to
him that the same could be raised
here just as abundantly as any place
he ever farmed.

The deceased was born in Mans
field, Ohio, Oct. %, 1884, and was
nearly 7S years old. His early life
was spent in difficult circumstances
to obtain anything Of an educa tion,
having been left an orphan at the
age Of 8 years. Friends got him in
terested in educational matters and
after acquiring good understanding
in this way devoted a number Of
his years to teaching. He was mar
ried April 80, 1860, and as result of
that union four girls and three boys
were born. One Of the sons and one
of the daughters arrived here yester-
day to attend the funeral. The de-
ceased was soldier in the war Of the
rebellion and served his country
three years and nine months. He
has lived in this county about thir-
teen years, the first three years Of
which he resided in Mitchell.

for the New Buildin.

In conversation with President
Graham, ofthe University, he stat
ed that the executive committee Of
the Institution held meeting a few
days ago and awarded one or two con-
tracts for material that means that
work will be resumed on the building
in possibly a short time. The con-
tract for the iron work was let to the
Shorthill Co., Of Marshalltown,
Iowa, and the cut stone work was
awarded to G. E. Babcock Co., of
Kasota, MINI. Prices have been Sc
cured on the mill work and this will
be let in a few days.
There is only one thing that will
likely in any way interfere with the
resumption of the work on the build
ing, and it is decidedly important
matter at that. The committee
fears that it will be unable to secure
sufficient laborers to do the mason
work when everything is ready.
There is so much building going on
at the present time and so much
contracted ahead that stone masons
are very scarce.
The Williamson Bros. have been at
work at the University most all sum-
mer in dressing the rock and they
have enough on hand now to to COM
plete that part of the work on the

basement and foundation and as soon
as the stone dressers get enough mat
erial ahead Mr.. Scheurenbrand ex-
poets to put the stone masons at work
laying the foundation. He may be a
little delayed in starting on the
stone work, owing to the fact that
some of the lumber which must be
used at practically the outset will
have to be shipped from the state of
Washington, and it will take at least
month or perhaps six weeks before
itfcan be delivered here.
AS to the size Of the building it will
have a frontage of 66 feet, 6 inches
on Third street, and extend back 30
feet on Rowley street. which will be
the dimensions of the main building.
The basement will be eight feet in

the basement will be above ground
There will be one story above the

WANTED THE EXPERIENCE
Two Young Fellows From Iowa
Tackle the Harvest Field for
Novelty of the Thing.

On Tuesday of last week n. P.
Hubbard was in town from his farm,
a miles northeast and wanted to
secure some harvest hands. A couple
of young fellows accosted him for a
job. They were both nicely dressed
and cid not have the appearance
Of having very much experience in
that line Of work, but they were will
ling to go out and try it. Mr.. Hub
bard finally acquiesced in the matter
and took the young men home with
him, first telling them they better
get pair Of gloves for those soft
white hands. The young men put in
four days of good hard work in the
harvest field, and the first night they
didn't know whether to stick the Job
through or not, but Mr.. Hubbard
told them to eat all they could and
sleep all they could and perhaps they
could weather it through. The
second day, after they had learned a
few things, Mr.. Hubbard said the
boys got along in fine shape and made
two as good workmen as be had
ever had. Saturday he brought the
two young men to town and paid
them off. When they got outof the
wagon one of them handed Mr.. Hub
bard business card and it bore the
address of Charles Roe, attorney at
law, DesMUins. Iowa. and the other
being Lewis Thomas, of the same
place. Nh. Hubbard said he did not
think at any time that he was en-
tertaining the ordinary hobo but be
was little surprised that he was
employing two business men. Mr..
Roe said he would frame that money
when he got back home, and declared
that those were four of the most
pleasant days he had put in for a
good many years. He stated they
were on their way to Montana and
were simply making a tour of the
country not la hobo, but travelling
from one place to another. Mr..
Hubbard said that he enjoyed the
society Of his workmen very much
indeed and would just as soon pick
up another duo Of men who were as
agreeable and conscientious as they
were

Gun That shoots Twenty-Five Miles

dun J nat SnO0tS IWeMty-tne Miles
The l6 inch breech loading rifle
just built at the Watervliet Arsenal
for the defense Of New York Harbo1
marks an epoch in the whole history
Of artillery warfare. The great can
non is half again more powerful than
its nearest rival an English gun of
16 25 inch bore. 1t is one of a series
OF coast defense guns provided for by
the Endicott board appointed during
Cleveland's first administration.
Eighteen such rifles are to be
mounted for the defense of New
York City, ten for San Francisco,
eight for Boston, and four for Hamp-
ton roads.
The most dramatic feature Of the
American rifle is the range. The
greatest actual performance in long
range shooting is that OF the Krupp
gun, fired before the Kaiser in
April 1892, which carried about
twelve and Que half miles. The new
American rifle will have, theoreti-
cally, the amazing range of twenty
one miles. In, other words, war
ship earring such rifle could anchor
in New York Harbor and throw pro-
jectiles into New Rochelle or Pater-
son or Hastings. In the course OF
it's fight the shell would rise six
miles above the ground.

DOWN At HIS OLD HOME.
+. A. Fosdick Recalls Former Times
by Trip Back to His Old
Home in Iowa.

J. A. Fosidck recently made a trip
back to his former home in Waterloo,
Iowa. While there he got in CONVEX
sation with the reporter for the
Waterloo Courier, to whom he recited
many interesting incidents of his
life in those early days Of Iowa. The
following is an extract taken from
the Courier:
John A. Fosdick OF Mitchell, S. D.,
arrived in the city last evening and is
the guest of Geo. E. Logan. Mr..
Fosdick is a Black Hawk county
pioneer and this is his first visit to
this section since 1880. He was a
brother-in-law to DR.. Wasson late
editor of the LaPorte City Progress
and came to this county in 1856, set
tling at LaPorte. He conducted a
store the first year and then he and
DIR. Wasson built a steam saw mill
in that village. 1t was located on
the bank of Big Creek just below the
present Rock Island bridge. He.
lived in LaPort, seven years, after
he remained until 1880.
MI. + OSQlCk possesses an eXCellenL
memory and related many interesting
stories of early days. The winter
Of 1867 was extremely severe and
most of the deer in the country were
killed, the animals eing so helpless
that itwas easy to capture them with
a club or an AK Mr.. Fosdick states
that at one time the carcasses Of "a
dead deer were piled up in the store.
One of the incidents recited by Mr..
Fosdick was his experience of being
lost in blizzrad in the winter of
1856, when he and the DR.. Wasson
mentioned above put in the greater
share Of the night on the prairie try
ing to find a habitation for shelter,
in which they were successful along
about midnight. It was a storm
that will be remembered by every
pioneer resident Of Iowa. In speak
aing of his visit to The Republican
editor Mr.. Fosdick said that great
many Of the men whom he had known
in the early day bad died during his
absence and that there were very
few of the old pioneers left in the
country.

IN TROUBLE AT PLANKlNToN
Father Stanton, Formerly of ethan
is Connected With Some Cues
tiOnable Actions out West.

llOllaDle aCtlO1lS OUT west,
The following special from Plankin-
ton appeared in the Yankton Ga
zette under date of August 5:
The Catholic priest, Stanton by
name, who located here less than a
month ago.. has gone wrong. He
started out last Thursday to visit his
parish and took along as guide Albert
Grambhiler, thirteen-year-old
farmer boy. The story as to what
happened during the afternoon upon
the prairie with the priest is indeed
disgusting and can better be des-
cribed by CHASING the inhuman
monster among the pace makers for
Oscar Wilde. The lad was so fright
ened he did not mention what had
happened until the following day
when he told an older brother.
A commi ttee from the church men,
bers waited upon the priest, who
denied the. story, but he did not
tarry in these parts long after dark
ness came the night following the
interview. He came here from Ethan
about four weeks ago and is said to
have attemped to burn his residence
there while under the influence of
liquor. His whereabouts at present
are unknown TO the general public
The Plankinton Herald this week
made reference to the escapade in
which the priest was associated and
refers to the same as outlined above,
and the paper thinks there is strong
grounds for the truth of the state
ments thatare being made out there.
Father Stanton was in the city on
Tuesday of this week and he appeared
to be in some kind of trouble. 1t was
known here that in the latter part
Of June and the early part of July the
priest became more OF less intoxicated
and that he was relieved from any
further connection with the work of
the church at Ethan, where he had
accomplished a great deal of work
in building up the society. It is un-
derstood that after he was relieved
from the work in this parish that
the vicar general stationed Father
Stanton at Plankinton until the re-
turn of Bishop o. German, who at the
time was in Rome, when some ar.
rangements would be made as to his
