Catarrh Poisons.

Catarrh Poisons.
Catarrh is capable Of changing all the
Ife-giving secretions of the body into
scaldng fluids, which destroy and in
flame every part they come in contact
with. Applications to the places affect
ed by catarrh can do little good save to
soothe or quiet disagreeable symptoms.
Hence it is that gargles, sprays, atom
iZers and inhalants only serve MS tenn
porary relief. So long as the irritating
secretions of catarrh continue to be
formed so long will the membranes con
tinue to be inlamed, no matter what
treatment is used
There is but one remedy that has the
desirable effect, and that remedy is

The Bells of Shandou.
With deep affection and recollection
often think of those Shandon bells,
Whose sounds so wild would in the days
of childhood
Fling round my cradle their magic
spells.
On this ponder, where'er wander,
And thus grow fonder, sweet Cork, of
thee;
With thy bells of Shandon.
That sound so grand on
The pleasant waters of the River Lee.
have heard bells Ginning full many
cline in
Tolling, sublime in cathedral shrine:
While at n glib rate brass tongues would
vibrate,
But all their music spoke naught like
thine;
For memory dwelling on each proud
swelling
Of thy belfry kneeling its bold notes
free,
Made the bells of Shandon
Sound far more grand on
The pleasant waters of the River Lee
have heard bells tolling "old Adrian'e
mole" in,
Their thunder rolling from the vatican,
And cymbals glorious, swinging uproari-
Gus,
In the gorgeous turrets of Notre Dame;
But thy sounds were sweeter than the
dome of Peter
filings DER the Tiber, pealing solemnlyl
o! the bells of Shandon
Sound far more grand on
The pleasant waters of the River Lee.
There's bell in Moscow, while on tower
and kiosko
In st. Sophia the Turkman gets,
And loud in air calls men to prayer
From the tapering submits of tall min.

Such empty phantom l freely grant

But there's an anthem more dear to me:

Mrs. Mccoy Wins Action Against
Fred Dannenbrink. Asking
For Guardian
JuRYsvERDlcT SATURDAY NIGHT
Plaintiff Proves That Her Grandfather
is Of Such Condition Mentally as to
Be in Need of Guardian to Prevent
squanderins Preperty-case May Be
Appealed.

The case of Sophia Mccoy, of Mon
tour, VS.. Fred Dannenbrink. we'll
known wealthy Tama county farmer,
came to close Saturday afternoon, af-
days in the district court. Mrs. Mccoy
asked that a guardian be appointed for
her grandfather, the defendant. in order
to prevent him squandering his proper
ty. The jury retired at about o'clock
and returned at 6:3O with a verdict for
the plaintiff.
The three questions that were asked
the jury by the court, in instructing
We're, whether or not the defendant
were of such unsound mind as to be in
capable of handling his property;
whether or not he was, according to the
evidence, an habitual drunkard, and
whether or not he Is a spendthrift, so
that guardian is needed to protect his
property. The jury answered each ques-
ton in the affirmative. These questions
were put to the jury by the court IN
order to satisfy the legal status, each
being sufficient8ground for the nam
ing of guardian.
The evidence in the case did not go to
show, as was attempted that August r..
Nuese, of Pickering, with whom Mr..
Dannenbrink has been. and is at pres
ent, living, had any undue influence
over him other than what was judicious
and for the best.
The court will probably appoint a
guardian for Dannenbrink on Wednes-
day, when Judge Caswell will convene
court again for the purpose of cleaning
UP the remainder of the docket, as far
as possible. He went to Toledo this
morning, where he convened the Tama
county court, and will return here
Tuesday night.
1t is probable that in the Damien
brink case an appeal will be taken.

There is every indication that the G..

been unsettled, and which for the past
week has delayed work on the new
station, will be speedily settled. Land
and Tax Commissioner Woodruff of the
Great Western, is in the city today and
viii make proposition to the members
OF the council that will, without doubt,
be satisfactory, and will be accepted by
the council Mr.. Woodruff's proposition
Is that the company will make an alley
way twenty feet wide along the north
line of the company's property extend
Ing between Third and Fourth avenues
and connecting with the north and
south alley running between these
streets. This alley the company will
pave with brick and put in first-class
shape for the use of the city. Thru a
misunderstanding of the legal depart
ment Of the road the matter has not
been attended to before this, so that the
delay to the new depot has been the
result. This proposition will. without
doub., be accepted by the city and the
work on the new building will be re-
sumed at once. The company also finds
it necessary to move the power cables
of the Marshalltownr Light, Power &
Railway Company. that at present cross

the Great Westerns expense and will
be taken up Fourth avenue to the new
alley, and thence west to the street car

High School Football Team Badly
Beaten by GrinnelI Eleven Saturday.
The high school football team of this

a football gridiron. MarshalltoWn

opponents for a single touchdown,
While the home team piled up a score
of 50, during the two halves. The Wis
itors put up stiff article of football
for the first fifteen minutes of the game,
and repea tedly held the Grinnell boys
for downs. They weakened, however,
after Grinnell made her first touch
down and from that time turnout the
game Grinnell scored almost at Will.
The home team made two touchdowns
in the first half and kicked one of the
two goals scoring, IL. In the second
half they scored II more by straight
line bucking for good gains. The
game was witnessed by a fair crowd
and halves of twenty-five and twenty
minutes were played. Conger, of Grin
nell. and Phillips, of Marshalltown,
acted as the officials. For the home
team the playing of Shifflett. Bump,
Gilley and Sears was especially good.
while Johnson and Lander played the
star games for the visitors.
