Local Horses Will
Contest.

Favored with fair weather, the tri-
city trot, postponed from last Sun
day, will be pulled off tomorrow at the
Davenport mile track, where the
chief events that have been put off
from day to day on account of the
rains of the week are to be run this
afternoon, a large crowd going from
this city and Moline.
The entries in the tri-city trot are
confined to local talent and there is
great speculation on the outcome. In
addition to the tri-city event. there
are to be a 2:2O trot and 2:25 pace, in
which there are to- be some twenty
five horses from the western circuit
entered.

Not Over-wfse.

There is an old allegOrical picture
of girl scared at grasshopper, but
in the act of heedlessly treading on
snake. This is paralleled by the man
who spends a large sum of money
building a cyclone cellar, but neg
lects to provide his family with a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy as a safe
guard against bowel complaints,
whose victims outnumber those of
the cyclone a hundred to one. This
remedy is everywhere recognized as
the most prompt and reliable medi-
cine in use for these diseases. For

The first contest will be called

Onyx Dave Rose at WatertOWn.

Being like Micawber, with more
time than anything else on my hands,
[ concluded to be again refreshed by
listening to the set speech of David S.
Rose. He hasn't changed his spots
since his hurculean efforts to beat the
street car company and save the peo-
pie of Milwaukee in 1898. His same
old Bluebeard methods were on tap:
The same carefully studied tread as he
came into and passed through the hall
to the stage; the careless and sat
home'' style after be sat down, just be-
fore being introduced; the same cum
ningly arranged and craftily delivered
Boulanger speech, with each subject
supplied at the end with climax. The
same flippant devil may care chal-
lenge to the opposition of coward you
dare not defend such shameless action. y
The same arrogant assertion of what
wonders had been accomplished by
this plumed knight of the dear people.
In short the same prince of Four Flush
ers. Our chinless friend certainly new
er had, hasn't now or never will have
an equal in him-haming his audience
into believing his plausible statements
at least for the first time. True his
performances shows his hypocrisy
later-but then it is too late to check
mate him. He accuses La Follettee
OF about everything but murder, leav-
ing the impression that La Toilette is

worry ou' thick headed friend when
assailing his opponents. He don't
mention democratic platforms, either
state or national; says nothing about
the railroads being under-taxed $780,

putting up for his enormous expenses.
Certainly somebody must be generous
as Dave is considered tight as the
bark to a tree" and in getting any
thing out of him one must use a cork
screw. He assumes that his audience
is ignorant and not posted. He appeals
to Elks, K. of P. farmers, mechanics,

dead Bennett Law)
His platform is Bunco David's shape.
1t the railroad companies can have a
powerful friend at Court to veto a

much is it worth?
If the silly fools q was one of them in
1899 would take the correct measure
of this political buccaueer others of his
his ilk would think twice before asking
for the job of Governor. Remember
this, Robert M. La Toilette is a poor
man today and the railroad companies
are the gents who are fighting him.

every tax payer in the city, and for the

every other interest likely to arise in
the district that will require legislative
action.
Watertown has sent of it's citizens
able men, both republicans and dem
OcrOts, as its representatives in both
houses of the legislature and local in
terests have been conscientiOusly cared
for. But at no session has there been a
question of such vital interest to the
people of our city as is contained in a
plank common to both party platforms
relative to tax reform, and we need a
man identified with our home interests;
man knowing the needs Of his fellow
citizens, and having will and ability
to labor along rational lines for the legal
correction of the evils so justly COM
planned of.
Robert Jones would make a safe rep

Sept. 29.-Gust Seefeldt, aged about
IS years, a we'll to do farmer living with
his family on farm twelve miles from
PestigO. this state, was shot and killed
by his 17-year-Old son at an early hour
Monday morning. Mr.. Seefeld had been
in the habit of beating his wife and
children and this morning he started
to quarrel with his wife because she
refused to help him hunt for his hat, as
she was busy taking care of 6-week-
old child, and he pounded her with a
stove poker, cutting cash in the ton
of her head. He also kicked her.
The boy came in from the barn, took
the old family shotgun, loaded with fine
shot, went to his father and shot him
in the abdomen. He then picked I'D
his mother, who was in an unconscious
condition, and carried her to her room
and put her to bed.
Leaving his sisters, aged II and 10
years respectively, with her and his
dying father, the boy then started for
the village to notify the family doctor
to take care Of his mother. After doing
this he went to Justice of the Peace
Slight and Constable Zimmerman, told
OF his crime and gave himself up.
The father was still living when the
boy left home. but was in an unconscious
condition, and lying in pool of Flood
on the floor. When the doctor arrived
the father was dead.
The boy was then told to go to the
District Attorney Hutchinson at Marin
cite and state the case, which he did.
He returned from Marinette at about
noon and left for his farm home, where
the inquest was held Tuesday afternoon.
Officer Zimmerman and Justice SLIGHT
having charge of the inquest. A jury of
six men was called in at the farm home
and decided as follows:
"That the son of Gust Seefeldt was
justified in ahooting the father, as that
Was the only way in which the son
could save the life of his mother"

Yet it well might be that never for
The pain in the heart should cease!
How many go forth at morning
Who never come home at night!
And hearts have broken for harsh
words spoken
That sorrow can never set right!
We have careful thought for the

And smiles for the sometime

But oft for our own the bitter tone.

And then mamma, course, would let

And you'd think thathe was blazin =
He's so red,
And his nose is like berry,
And he's bald as Uncle Jerry
On his head.
Why, he isn't worth brick,
All he does is cry and kick!
He can't stop.
Won't sit up-you can't arrange him
I don't see why pa don't change him
At the shop.
Now we've got to dress and feed him,
And we really didn't need him

When they know I'd good deal ruthe1
