there is every prospect that hand
some $4,000 residence will be built in

The project was discussed at a con-
ference of ministers at Hamburg last

odist church in the Council Bluffs dis
trict. and 1t is believed an assessment
of 81 each could be made and easily
collected without working any hard
ship on the church people. This fund
OF $4,000 Is estimated to be ample to
build suitable home for the presiding
elder in this city. The erection OF the
building. however, would not be COM
menced unuil a considerable portion of
the tax has been collected.
The idea OF permanent home for
the presiding elder is a new one In the
west. and If the Council Bluffs district
decides to build one 1t will be the first
in the state. However, in the older dis
tricts OF the east the presiding elders
are frequently accorded perrnanen
houses at the principal city in the dis
trict. 1t is argued that the presiding
elder. as the head OF the district, Is as
much entitled to and in need OF per-
manent and suitable home as any Of
the pastors under him.

MAY BOYCOTT ROCK ISLAND.

Special to Times
Indianola, Nov 3.-The stock ship
pers in this vicinity are planning q
boycott" on the Rock Island railway
because of the poor service they have
recently been giving here. For some
time the service on the branch between
here and Des Moines has been such
that shippers are unable to get their
stock into Chicago until day late
which means big shrinkage In the an
imals. The accommodations train be-
tween Winterset and Des Moines is
supposed to leave Indianola at o'clock
which would enable them to make con-
nections with the fast service into
Chicago. but it does not arrive here
until after o'clock, and in consequence
of the delay in switching, etc, does
not make the connections The stock
men are now shipping their stuff to
Chicago on the Burlington via Chari-
ton. The poor service, 1t is said, is
also damaging to the packing house at
Des Moines, as shippers are sending
the stuff that would go to them to the
packing house at Ottumwa. The out
come of the stock shippers fight on the
Rock Island is awaited with interest.

Give u UP.
Des Moines, Nov. 3.-Suit has been
Instituted in Justice William A. This
court on a note for $3.50 alleged to have
been given by Miss Ruth Richardson
of Rockwell City, Iowa, to Mrs. Fred
West, keeper of a lyingin hospital In
northwest Des Moines. Miss Richard
son is asked to pay $3.50 for the adop-
ton OF the baby, which was born in
the home several months ago. 1t so
happens that Miss Richardson, after
giving birth to the child, SO loved the
baby that she would not part with 1t.
Her shame was made known to her
parents who reside on farm near
Rockwell City, and the mother immedi-
ately declared that there was no use
giving up the child Mrs. Richardson
came at once to Des Moines and took
the baby. Efforts We're made by Mrs.
West to secure the child, who she
claims is her own property until the
$3.50 is paid.
Miss Richardson has addressed a let
ter TO the Humane Society setting forth
her side of the case and asking what
she shall do. She admits having agreed
with Mrs. West to pay $50 20 have
the child adopted into some home after
its birth. She also claims that Mrs.
West is indebted to her for a sum equal
to $40 or more for work done in the
laundry at the home, and for other
duties performed in the capacity OF
domestic at the home.
The child Is now in possession of Mrs.
Richardson, who insists that she doesn't
charge anything at all for Its care or
adoption Mrs. Richardson has adopted
the baby as her very own and says that
she took the step of her free will and
was not influenced by Mrs. West to
take the baby. The note calls for the
payment of $3.50 for certain services
and the Richardson's claim that Mrs.
West has not performed the service.
The note was sold by Mrs. West to
her attorney, Harry holland, and by
him to a man named Rogers who brings
suit for the amount.
