FROM ALL OVER IOWA.

cIarinda.
The heavy rains in the last ten days
have seriously interfered with the rip
ening of the corn and there are grave
fears as to the outcome, as much corn
will undoubtedly be seriously damaged
unless the weather should change so
as to be more favorable in the near
future.
New Sharon.
w. S. Piersall reports eleven barrels
of apples picked from one tree, and
several bushels had fallen before pick
ing commenced. At 80 cents a bushel
and 100 trees to the acre, this would
figure up about $1,000 per acre, which
lis better than an average orchard In
the garden of Eden, or a gold mine at
the northpole. So Iowa is ahead In
both cases, as the Star puts it.
Abba.
The Union says there is a lively In
terest in Abba over gated horses. MT.
Ed. Whited sold his fine bay trotting
mare to Chicago parties for $500. Fred
OFT sold his pacing mare to w. p. Hall,
of Lancaster, Mo-, for $3.50. M. u.
Henion sold his brown three-year-old
trotting filly to Cedar Rapids parties
for $3.50. Billey Thompson sold his
chestnut single driver to Cedar Rapids
parties for SITS. These prices prove
that the people still want good single
drivers.
Upton.
Mrs. Mary Judson, OF this place, was
before the commissioners of insanity
CT. y x, i,,So M
and was taken to the hospital at Inde-
pendence by Officer Barclay. Her
mind has been unbalanced on the sub
ject of religion for some time and OF
late she has grown worse. Last Sat
urlay she attempted to take the train
for Chicago without buying a ticket,
stating she was called there to preach.
She succeeded in getting as far as
Stanwood but was returned from there
by officers to whom her mental condi-
ton was apparent.
Jefferson.
Bob Nelson, engineer at the city
pumping station, can do good many
stunts of a mechanical sort, but he
found last week that 1t was beyond
even his mechanical genius to blow a
six Inch steam whistle at the end of an
inch and a half pipe attached to the
city's boiler When the big whistle
was bought, 1T was expected 1t would
produce a blast like a report of a thir-
teen-inch gun, but when the thing was
fixed up lit uttered strange asthnatic
sound that was between a howl and
goan, and in volume was not much
superior to a boy blowing into bung-
hole. What was worse it evidenced an
extravagant desire for steam that
threatened to impoverish the town. and
the upshot of the matter was that the
big whistle has been sent back, a small
er one ordered, and the dreams of a
toot that should arouse the whole
county are at an end, says the Bee.

TOO GREAT EXPENSE.
Not - Reason.


It Is not because Pyramid Pile Cure
4 so expansive that many people de-
cline to CIV it trial, but because they
find it too great tax en- their cred,llity
to believe that the published letters
bearing testimony to the merit Of this
remedy are genuine and bona fide; es-
pecially to those who have realized the
suffering incident to piles is it in
credible that anyone who has been
afflicted twenty-five and thirty years
with the worst forms IF pretrudlng
and bleeding piles should be cured by
the application of simple remedy,
when their physician has assured chem
that the only relief is in a surgical.
operation. This is rightfully viewed
with dread by all those afflicted, as 1t
means at the least a great shock, to
the nervous system, with more than a
possibility OF utter collapse and death;
in the majority Of cases, too, there is a
return Of the complaint, owing to the
fact that the cause is not removed.
The proprietors of pyramid Pile
Cure agree to forfeit one thousand
dollars to anyone who will show a
single published testimonial to be not
genuine and unsolicited; this latter
feature is most gratifying, tnasmuch as
these letters are written solely out of
gratitude, and with the hope that those
who are afflicted as the writers have
been may learn that relief is at hand,
at comparatively trifling expense.
Pyramid Pile Cure is for sale by drug
gists at fifty cents a package. or will be
mailed by the makers 10 any address
upon receipt OF price.
Mr.. VIM. Lichtenwalter, head Of the

Montezuma. Oct. s.-There seems to
be two separate and distinct railroad
rumors afioat here, both enenating
from railroad men, as to the intention
Of the c., r. I. & p. system extending
their line from here to some point to
connect with some of their other lines.
One story, confidently told, is that they
will build to Monroe and connect with
their line to Des Moines, thereby get
ting much shorter line from Des
Moins to Davenport than they now
have. The other story seems to come
from an engineer, that they will surely
build to Malcolm and connect there
with the main line. Both stories say
the extension will be built next spring.
