Spirit Lake June ia CHASTITY find
was made at the Baxter House, in this
city, Saturday. It seems that one AL
bert Sebring called at the hotel late
Thursday and asked for a room. The
boy clerk thought from the mans APP
pearance that he was intoxicated but
took him to room without his regis
tering. Not being registered he was
not called for breakfast. The chamber
maid looked into the room on Friday
but finding the bed occupied did not
enter. At about IL o'clock on Saturday
it was discovered that the man was
Cead. Coroner Rector was called and
held an inquest, giving the decision that
death was due to natural causes. 1t is
believed the man was sick instead Of
intoxicated when he appeared at the
place. He probably died Thursday
night as decomposition had set in so
that the coroner ordered the body
buried at once.
BY letters on his person the deceased
was found to have been a laborer on
the b. c. f.. & N. railroad, and had
received letters from friends in Okla
hcma. None, however. could be located.

Des Moires, June 16.-Another dis
tressing murder occurred in Dies
Moines Saturday night. Albert Hefiey
was stabbed fatally by Robert Morris.
The ARRAY took place at the home of
Hetiey, who Immediately afterwards,
and when he believed he was going TIC
die, made statement accusing Nor
ris. Heheys brother-in-law, Samuel
Wellington, lived with Hetley and he
had been at Greenwood parkSwith a
Valley Junction girl during the after
noon Morris, who had shown atten-
tons to the same girl, objected, and a
quarrel ensued at the park. Yelling
ton went home with the girl to Valley
Junction, and Morris proceeded to get
drunk and procure a big butcher knife.
About midnight he turned up at the
Hehey home in search of Wellington.
Hefley saw him and went out to drive
him away. A fight ensued and Hefey
was stabbed. Morris escaped, but was
arrested Sunday at Valley Junction
One Charles Hughes, who was with
Morris, was also taken into custody,
tho he had nothing to do with the
crime.
After Samuel Wellington returned
from Valley Junction he made the fol-
lowing statement:
Il had trouble with Morris early in
the evening over at the park. I was
with a girl who works in the same
place Norris does, and who Morris has
been going with until she turned him
down. Morris has worked In the Drexel
chop house in Valley Junction lately.
Before that l don't know just what he
did. He was night cook at the DreNel.
Morris went to Hefleys thinking that
I was in the house. 1 did intend 60
stay there ell night and I guess he
knew it."
Morris is said to be a bad man.
Several years ago, it is claimed, he
was taken from here back to Pontiac,
ILL.,, to serve a term.

citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is con-
slant reader of the Dayton Volkszei-
tung. He knows that this paper aims
to advertise only the best in it's COL

Pain Balm advertised therein for lame
back, he did not hesitate in buying
bottle of it for his wife, who for eight
weeks had suffered with the most ter
rible pains in her back and could get
no relief. He says: after using the
Pain Balm for a few days my wife said
to me, 4 feel as tho born anew ana be-
fore using the entire contents of the
bottle the unbearable pains had entirely
vanished and she could again take up
her HOUSEHOLD duties" He is very
thankful and hopes that all suffering
likewise will hear of her wonderful re-
covery. This valuable liniment is for

Charles City, June 15.-The county

Saturday settled the fight for the con-
gressional nomination. Four conven-
tons were held and all of them-Win-

Reconstructed for Haugen. Rule will

Haugen now has more than enough
instructed votes to give him the nom
ination.
Updegraff, in Clayton, and Senator
Smith, in Mitchell, dominated their con-
ventions.
The Rule men express much disap-
pointment at his failure to carry a
single county. The opposition to Haug-

The Charles City convention on June

of Haugen without a roll call.

Crops Are Best in Iowa Where Fall has

Des Moines, June 16-"It is fact"
says Director John r. Sage. of the Iowa
weather and crop service, that the crui,
conditions are the best at the present
time where the least rain has fallen
cry of drought, and people feared that
there would be no crops because there
would not be enough moisture to make
the grain grow. But, as matter of
fact. the crops are being seriously in
jured in good many sections by too
much rain. The rainfall during the past
month has varied from l to IS inches in
different sections. Up in the northeast
ern part of the state, as IN Allamakee
county, there has been the enormous
rainfall of eighteen inches-pretty
nearly enough for whole year. The
crops are, of course nearly drowned out
in the worst sections where the land is
fiat On the other hand, where there
mas been only an inch Of rain the crops
are doing well. Wherever there has
been fall of over ten inches the crops
are injured. The oats are too heavy
and are sure to fall down and be badly
injured in this way. The normal fall
for May is 40. and for June is $50. The
result goes to show that it is much cas-
Ter to stand drought at this time of
year than food. An inch of rain for
the past month would be called
drought, as compared with the normal
rail-, but where there has been the least
rain the crops are good. The damage 70
crops from the excessive rainfall in
Iowa will undoubtedly be considerable
but nevertheless, the chances are that
the crop output of the state, as a whole
Will be magnificent"

PUT TO THE TEST.

MarshaIItown People Appreciate a
Good Thing.
Everybody has their hour of trouble,
But people having any itchiness Of
the skin
Have more hours of trouble.
Nothing so annoying. Nothing so ir-
ritating.
Scratch it, it becomes worse,
Leave it alone and you can hardly
stand the misery.
Itchinesss comes in many forms
Eczema and horrid itching piles.
Relief and cure are here at last.
Marshalltown has put it to the test
Doans Ointment cures every form
Of itchiness of the skin.
People at home are learning that this
Is so.
Here is a proof in citizens state
ment:
Mr.. D. A. Penquite, of 511 South Fifth
street, says: "Doan's Ointment is
marvel. Two applications of it cured
me of itching hemorrhoides. which, de-
spite the use of innumerable remedies
said to be sure cures for just such con-
ditions, defied all my efforts to get the
slightest relief, let alone any permanent
result. A relative of mine. well nigh
discouraged by repeated failures to get
assistance for hemorrhoids, thoroughly
tested this ointment as we'll as l. His
experience, added to my own, compels
me to say that my appreciation of
Doan's Ointment can far better be I'M
derstood by myself than expressed in
ordinary Anglo-Saxon. My advice to
any sufferer from rectal troubles is to
call at Mcbride & Wills drug store, OBJ
tain Doan's Ointment and results will

FAKE HAIR PREPARATIONS.
Do Hair no Good, But Often Cause
to Fall Out

Many hair preparations are fake
because they are merely scalp irritants
They often cause a dryness, making the
hair brittle, and, finally, lifeless. Dan
druff is the cause of all the trouble with
the hair. 1t is germ disease. The germ
makes cutcle scales as it digs to the
root of the hair. where it destroys the
hairs vitality, causing the hair to fall
out. To cure dandruff, the germ must
be killed. Destroy the cause, you re-
move the effect" Newbro's Herpicide
is the only hair preparation that kills
the dandruff germ, thereby leaving the
hair to grow luxuriantly.
