Photographs Of Representative Iowans
to Be Gathered.
There is In preparation in this state
a work to be called Men of Iowa, =
which is to include the photographs OF
the representative men in the state In
all walks of life. The idea is taken from
Notable New Workers." a collection Of
photographs of men of national reputa-
ton. classified into professions and the
various departments of commerce.
There is to be an entire absence of BIZ
ography and fulsome personal praise
that is so Objectionable to many men.
The only printed matter is the name of
fication. The object of the work is to
secure the portrait of every represent
tative man in the state in one volume
for the purpose of contemporary histori-
cal reference. In addition 1t will be a
valuable souvenir at home and abroad
and an enduring monument to the
greatness of Iowa, portraying the
statesmen, professional men, fnanciers,
philanthropists, merchants, manufac-
turers and al others who are earnestly
endeavoring to aid in the development of
the state. The selection oflthe subjects
will be made by gentlemen in the vari-
Gus professions and commercial bodies,
and only those who are carefully select
ed will be included in the lists. The
compilation is by the Iowa Historical
Company

tant Marshall County Suit
for Retrial.
Findings Of the Lower Court Re-
versed on Appeal OF LeGrand
Quarry Company.
Lower Court Gave Plaintiff
$1,000 Damages for Loss
Of Eyesieht.

An important opinion was handed
down by the supreme court at Des
Moines today in case appealed from
the Marshall county court under the
title of B. LAMA VS. LeGrand Quarry
Company. The decision of the lower
court is reversed on u appeal of the
defendant quarry company.
b. LAMA was a former employe of
the quarry company, and three
years ago while engaged in
blasting was severely injured by
premature discharge of the
explosive he was using As result of
the explosion LAMA lost the sight of
both eyes. Suit was commenced in the
district court for $4,000 damages The
trial came on before Judge Burnham
and jury, and LAMA was awarded a
verdict for $1,000. a motion to set aside
this verdict was sustained and q new
trial was granted. The second hearing
was also before Judge Burnham. and
the second jury awarded plaintiff dam
ages in the sum of S., 600 for the second
time.
From this second verdict the quarry
company, thru it's attorneys. appealed
to the supreme court. and the hearing
in that tribunal which has just been
concluded, resulted in the reversal of
the lower court. The case will now
come back to Marshall county for re-
trial. The grounds on which the SUI
preme court bases it's ruling have not
been received here.

Iowa Railroad Men to Meet Today
For This Purpose at Des Moines.
Superintendent CT w. Huntington, of
the Iowa Central, was in the city Satur-
day afternoon, being on his way home to
oskaloosa from Cedar Rapids, where he
had been to attend an informal meeting
of railway superintendent, held at the
office of Superintendent G. A. Goodell. of
the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & North
lern. The conference was the second one
held at Cedar Rapids. to discuss the
advisability of organizing a railroad
club, similar to number that are al
ready in existence in different parts of
the country. There is territory be-
tween Chicago and Omaha that the Iowa
superintendent think needs an organi-
cation of this kind, and meeting will
be held in Des Moines today, al
which time the railroad men will try to
perfect a permanent organization.
Railroad clubs are not for officials
alone, or.for any one class of railroad
men. Invitations have been extended to
representatives of the traffic, operating
and passenger men of Iowa roads, as
well as conductors and engineers. The
object of the club will be the exchange
of information, the betterment of knowl-
edge of railroad affairs and similar ques-
lions that might arise in everyday
railroad life in any and all departments.

PROF. RAYMoND's LECTURE.
First Of the Second ssri.. ia the Uni

First of the Second Series In the Uni.
versity Extension Course.
The first lecture in the second series OF
the university extension course was de-
livered Monday evening in the east court
room by Professor Raymond. OF the Chi
cago University. This lecture departed
radically from those Of the nrst course,
IN the elimination of theoretical discus
sion and the presentation OF historical
facts. Mr.. Raymond talked on the gen
eral topic OF Constantinopleaa and for one
-FOUR dealt With historical facts. He
said that from the time of the ancients
the city, because of it's location was
considered the key to the military situa-
ton of three continents, and for this
reason each conquering people estab-
iished It's seat of government there The
surprising beauty of the city, its people,
the sultan and his despotism and the
corruption of the Turkish administra-
ton, and the present revolutionary
movements, were all referred to, and the
lecture proper was followed with stere-
opticon views which were very enter
tanning and instructive. The lecture was
pleasing and one worthy of larger au-
ditorium and a full house.

% PUT ON new TRAINS
Chicago Great Western to Better
Its Passenger Service Early
Next Month.
Nos. l and 2 to Be Made Fast
Thru Trains and Two Locals
to Be Added.
Railway Mems Club Is to Be
Formed..D. W. Wheater in
Rock Island Wreck.

1t is understood thru information that
| is thought to be reliable, altho as yet 1t
has not been announced officially, that
the Chicago Great Western railway is
planning to materially better its train
service early in February, and Will put
on two new local trains on this divi-
sion.
Nos 1 and 2, now leaving this point
for the west and east, respectively, at
4:46 a. m. and 1885 p M, are to be made
thru trains, stopping on this division
only at Des Moines, Marshalltown, Wa
terloo and oelwein. AT present each
of these trains is local on a portion of
its run between Kansas City and Chi
cage. No. being local from Chicago to
Oelwein, and thru the remainder of the
way, and No. local from Kansas City
to Oelwein. then thru to Chicago.
To relieve the fast trains of the local
business two new passenger trains will
be placed into service. Altho the sched-
ule is not yet made it is said that the
new train west will leave Oelwein about
1 o'clock p. m. arriving here at about
3 O'clock. The train east Will arrive in
this city about $50 p. M. passing No.
8 at this point.
This new state of affairs will greatly
increase the roads service and business
as we'll. AS the conditions are now the
thru trains and 2, are not quite fast
enough to compete with other reads in
to Chicago, and with the many stops
cut out the time can be reduced and
trains. can arrive in Chicago two or
three hours earlier In the morning.

Repeat.
| So far as known there was hut one
Marshalltown man in the bad Rock Is
| land wreck. that occurred early Satur-
| day morning at Victor, caused by the
blowing up OF the engine boiler, while
the train was running fifty miles an
hour. Mr.. Daniel w. Wheater. Of 52s
North Third street, representative OK
Shannon, Mott & CO., wholesale -four, OF
Des Moines, was in the wreck, and says
that he doesn't care to repeat the ex-
perience again. Mr.. Wheater boarded
the fast train at Marengo. and Was a
passenger in the chair car. which was
one OF the only two cars of the entire
train that did not turn over, even tho 1t
did go into the ditch and stand at an
angle of about forty-five degrees. Mr..
Wheater says that before any of the
passengers knew what had really hap
pened, for they did not hear the noise
of the explosion, they thought the train
was passing depot that was on fire.
Huge sprays of fire fell like myriads of
rockets on all sides Then came the
jolt, jolt, caused by the cars running
over the ties. which lasted but few
moments before the front coaches and
sleepers tumbled down the embank-
ment, tearing down the right of way
fence, and lay on their sides in an adj
joining field. Where the boiler lay, COM
pletely overturned in a pasture ten rods
away, hole three feee deep was pored
in the ground The cab was thrown
over fence In the opposite direction.
To the wrecked boiler there wasn't a
single attachment left excepting the
throttle Many of the flues were blown
all to pieces. ut is miracle" added
Mr. Wheater. that we weren't all
killed. Every one who witnessed the
scene was Of the same conclusion II
talked with one farmer who lived three
miles distant from the scene of the
wreck, and he told me that the concus-
sion from the explosion was so great
that one of his men, who was carrying a
half-busfel basket filled with corn, had

dishes on his kitchen table ratified as i'll
