CAN AFFORD NO RELIEF.
Special Meeting Of School Board Called
to Hear Linn Township Complaint.

What to do with certain school chill
dren who are outside the independent
district of Marshalltown, and yet live
nearer to the Hartwell school than to
the next district school, is question
that is puzZling the board of Linn
township. To attempt to reach some
decision whereby relief could be offered
8 special meeting of the Marshalltown
board was held Friday night, at which
time the Linn township board appeared
and explained the situation. County
Superintendent Hostettler was present,
as was also County Attorney Stone
The city has been annexing both
east and west Linn township territory
so that the districts have been pretty
badly cut up. Marshalltown stands as
an independent district, as wedge in
the very center of Linn township. Sew
eral years ago portion of Linn district
No. was annexed, and few months
ago part of No. 2, west of town, was
taken into the district. There are pat
rons living just outside of the limits of
the annexed territory who have chill
dren of school age whom they want to
send to the city schools. Some would
as soon have them attend the Hartwell
school, which is near by, but in doing
SO they must pay tuition to this dictrict,
even tho they may live only across the
road. If they do not do this the chill
dren are compelled to go to the next
nearest district school west, and in
some instances it makes the distance
too far for small children to 60 and
farther, in Tact, than the state law pre-
scribes they can be compelled to go.
1t was decided after the conference
that there was nothing that can be done
at this time. and the matter will be-

Men Who Were Selling Stolen Cloth
ing Leave Town as Soon as Officers
Get on Their Trail.
The gang of tramps which was do
ing thriving business in the sale of
new clothing that was supposed to have
been stolen, left town in hot haste Fri
day night as soon as they learned that
the police were hot on their trail. Of
.ficers shadowed the men all day in
the hopes of finding some clew that
would enable them to lodge charge
against the outfit. Although they We're
followed all through the south part of
the city and their movements closely
watched, nothing was learned that
would warrant their arrest. Late in
the evening the men evidently learned
that they were being watched and made
haste to leave the city by the first train.
1t is known they did a good business
here for one of the party was reported
as having a big roll of money. The
men departed on a passenger train and
purchased tickets for Carroll. The
officers of that place have been noti-
fled in order that they may be watched.
1t has been learned this afternoon
that part at least of the trousers dis
posed of were stolen in this city. The
tramp who was arrested while he had
in his possession pair of pants was
released last night. He stated that he
bought them of another man. This
statement was not at first believed
by the police, but it now appears that
he was speaking the truth. When
the article appeared in the T.-R. last
night Mr.. Henry Altschuler, of the P.
A. Stern clothing store. began looking
among his clothing thinking. he might
have had some stolen. He reported
to the police that he was short four
pairs. The pair recovered from the
fellow arrested was returned to the
Stern store this afternoon and they
prove to be one of those missing. Mr..
Altsckuler says they must have been
stolen without his knowledge on
Thursday, as the store was not open
Friday.

reason to believe that this report will

regarding the pumps and other ma

will not be known for some time how

ENEMY OF THE TARANTuLA.
Wasplike Insect that Kills the Rep.
tile at First Sirhf

Wasplike Insect that Kills the Rep.
tile at First Sight.
That deadly pest of the Southwest.
the tarantula, whose bite is certain
death to both man and beast has at last
found its nemesis in the form of small
wasplike insect that is found quite nu-
merously in some regions.
The discovery of a tarantula killer
will be interesting news to the residents
of the Southland. The wonderful phe-
nomena is no more than the black wasp
with silvery wings, which is common
in this locality. Henceforward he will
be known as the tarantula killer and
will be looked upon as a blessing to
mankind by all who are mortally afraid
of the tarantula.
The female wasp keeps close look
out for the tarantula, which keeps just
as close lookout from fear from the
wasp. The latter lights quickly on the
starantula, stings it once. which pro-
duces drunken stupor, and then drags
his lifeleSs victim to a grave previously
prepared to receive him. 1t must be re-
=
dead. just dead drunk. but he coils
himself into kind of knot, and when
safely deposited by the wasp in a de-
sired location the victim is a sorry-ap
pearing aspect.
Underneath the tarantula the wasp
digs another hole, and in this she makes
herself at home until she has laid her
quota of eggs on the body of the tar
aatula. The warmth of the tarantula 5
body is sufficient to hatch the eggs, and
in due time the young tarantula killers
show themselves and then begin to
feast on the PROSTATE body of Mr..
Tarantula. The remains are sufficient
to keep the young wasps in food until
they are large enough to hustle for
themselves. at which time they sally
forth to sting other tarantuias and,
make homes for themselves. This state
ment results from close study made on
the matter by a farmer residing near
Guth' ie. who became interested in
watching the movements of the wasp
and kept n close watch afterward,
learning ,herefrom the facts above
given. This should exempt the black
wasp with sllvery wings from further
execution at the hands of the human
family.
