The so-called local traffic. too. which Is so important factor in the aggregate m the ally large and varied. The crop news made the grain-carrying railroads prominent. The most conspicuous movements were in stocks associated with the interests that make up the so-cslled Western contingent. Rock Island made sensational jump of 5h points; There were more substantial and better maintained advances in some of the other grain carriers, notably Missouri Pacific. The disclosure by railroads are profiting materially by reason of the increased demand for soft coal since the mining of anthracite has been suspended Pennsylvania and Hooking Valley were the leaders. But the advances were largely re- when 1t was perceived that the general market failed to respond in sympathy. the rise was discontinued and gave prominence to reaction The closing was heavy and showed all of the animation gone out of the market The hug ging of the gold export point by foreign sx- change and the interior demand for currency which sprang up over the holiday interval were oppressive influences which were reinforced by the poor bank statement.

"The School for Scandal"

Many and various have been the re-
yiyals of THE School for Scandal, but
10 revival has ever failed to attract
attention. Its wit, its story, its ele-
gance, its grace give it unique place
ip the memory of the theater-goer. The
play will never grow old, because Its
merits are fundamental The costumes
of the times only add a zest to the en-
1oyment of the present-day audience
The white wigs, the satin brocade
coats, vests and breeches and red
heeled buckled shoes of the men, the
ladies looking as if they had stepped
from a Vatican painting and were
bisaue statues turning to life give ami
nation and picturesqueness to the
scene that make it infinitely more in
teresting than the blank monotony OF
present-day dress.

day night by swallowing the contents
of a small phial of strychnne, pur-
chased ut s.: 80 Wednesday night at the
t'reyer drug store. His dead body was
found at II o'clock in the barn by Louis

absence of her husband from the house.
The news of the suicide, which
spread rapidly even at the late hour
sensation. Elliott was a Woodworking
man and was Well liked, having lived
at Liscomb all his life. The general
opinion is that family trouble is the
cause for his taking his life. Elliott
and his wife had not been getting along
Very we'll together, and it was only
about three weeks ago that Mrs.
Elliott returned home after an extended
stay in this city, during which time she
worked as a domestic at the f. l..
Meeker home, and lived with Mrs. Min
ME a. Smith at 800 West Church
street. Elliott came to the city and per-
suaded his wife to return home, but it
was generally understood that even
then their married life was not happy.
Mrs. Elliott Was prior to her marriage,
Lille Large. daughter of ABB Large.
Mrs. Elliott began to worry Wednes-
cav night when it became late and her
husband had not returned home. She
was afraid something had happened TO
him and summoned q neighbor, Louis
Adams, to search for him. Why Ad-
ans went to the barn he does not
know, but he. did so and there found
the lifeless body of Mr.. Elliott lying in
enc of the stalls. The body was then
fast growing cold, so that life must
have been extinct at least an hour or
two. The small bottle in which the 10
cents worth of strychnine had been
placed at the druggists was found in
the dead mans pocket The body
showed no signs whatever of a painful
death, such as strychnine would cause,
ond for that reason friends and neigh
bors notified Coroner Lierle at & this
morning of the death. The coroner will
sc to Liscomb this evening to investi-
gate.
Elliott was the son of the late Ross
Elliott, one of the pioneer residents of
Lscomb township, and was IS years
of age. Besides his wife he leaves two
children. hoy II and a daughter
10 years old. He is also survived by

about / 600 people made up the passen-
sers of the two special trains. leaving
here at and o'clock There are sew
cral conditions that are thought to be
responsible for the light attendance
mainly the threatening aspect of the
weather "Wednesday evening. The fact
that the state fair will begin next week,
and a low rate will be made that that
others who might have taken advan-
tase of the trip to the capital city will
wait for fair week. 1t was anticipated
ty the grocers that at least 1,50O people
would make up the crowd, and possibly
the number would reach 1000.
Conductor Cannon was in charge of
the first train. which left the Great
Western station at o'clock. Conduc-
tor Druse had the second train. which
left one hour later. The first train was
composed of twelve coaches, all well
filled. The second carried but eight, and
they We're only partially filled. The
run to Des NIoines was made in two
and one-half hours, the first train be-
ing reported in the capital city at $3.50

Hurt.

Leo Goodman. driver of fire truck
No. 9, of the city department, is plain

against the Iowa Central Railway
Company. Goodman wants damages in
the sum of $1,000 for injuries sustained
in collision with the truck and a Cen-
tral switch train, on the night of July

Goodman alleges that as he was
about to pass over the crossing an en-
rloye of the company motioned Tor him
to come ahead, and upon his signal he
did so. When he got on the track the
train was backed into the truck, result
ing in his being thrown to the pave
