IOWA WINS DEBATE.
Defeats Minnesota university's Debat'
ers by Decision of Two to One.

Defeats Minnesota University's Debat-
ers by Decision Of Two to One.
Iowa City, May iowa defeated
Minnesota last night in "a well con
tested debate on compulsory arbitra-
ton of disputes between capital and
labor. The debate was close, Iowa re-
Iceiring two votes and Minnesota
one.
Iowa argued that the recent coal
strike had shown that the disputes be-
tween labor and capital We're of vital
%concernato all the people and that their
prevention should be one of the OBJ
|jects of the administration of JUS
tice.
Minnesota argued that Compulsory
arbitration was impractical. incapable
of successful operation and that labor
disputes We're now solving themselves
by a natural process of evolution.
Iowa pictured the evils that would
happen to every citizen by another such
strike as the coal strike, bringing home
the cost to each judge.
Minnesota held that labor would not
accept the awards If adverse without
trouble and that compulsory awards
against capital would be confiscation of
property.
Iowa pointed to the acceptance of the
coal commission awards as ar instance,
showing that the awards of compulsory
arbitration would be accepted by both
capital and labor.
The two debating teams were evenly
balanced and every DICTATOR made an
appearance.
The Minnesota team was H. L. Wild

For Iowa, G. E. Hill of Burlington,

SALOON FOR SHARP COUNTY.

Last Wednesday County Judge Gal = win Mobiey granted saloon license to John L. Eady, who will open up bus mess at Hardy. Although the county went "dry" at the last election, it is contended that as the northern dis trict voted for license, that portion of the county is entitled to saloons. Other counties in this state, which have two districts, take this view of the matter, and saloon license is granted in one district, if it votes for the liquor license. John L. Eady appeared be- fore the court, by his attorney, Hon.
 T. l. Herrn, and advocated that the northern district is entitled to saloons by reason of it's vote at the late elec- tion, with the result that the license was granted Sharp County Record.

MURDER TRIAL POSTPONED.

The trial of Rufus Johnson, indicted for murder in the first degree, set for Tuesday, has been postponed by court until Wednesday morning at S:3O o'clock, when court convenes. This delay was caused by the failure of two important witnesses for the defend ant, John Howard and Floyd Thomas, the latter of Cross county.
 The defendant was brought into court Tuesday afternoon and the members of the family were present as witnesses to the proceedings. Making up the jury for this case may consume several days.

WHITE RIVER EXTENSION.

Hartville, Mo-, February 4.-Several large land deals in Stone county are reported as result of the certainty of a railroad running through that coun- ty. A surveying party is now in the vicinity of Scholten postoffice, on what is known as the ridge route. Chief Engineers RohWer and Tonni- son of the Missouri Pacific were at Galena, Stone county, last week. It is thought that the new line to be built by the Missouri Pacific south from Springfield will intersect the White river line, either at GaIena or Reed Spring. Much bridging and tunneling will necessarily have to be done in this mountainous country. There will be scores of deep cuts also. Galena is in the valley on a direct line between Kansas city and Memphis.

WORLDS WAX SUPPLY.
II Is Not Obtained from bees Alone,
nv Most of Us Have Always
Been Taught.

Bees are by no means the only pro.
ducers of animal wax, although prob
ably 90 persons out of 100 would say
so if asked.
The very biggest animal in the world
is one of the most important wax pro-
ducers, and fine wax it is. Itis sperm.
aceti, and it is obtained from the head
of the sperm whale.
When sperm whale has been killed
and is brought alongside, the first
thing that the whalemen do after the
chains are passed around the flukes to
hold the big creature alongside of the
whaliAg ship, is to cut the head from
the body.
This head alone often weighs several
tons, and it is no light job to raise it
from the water. Immense tackles are
used, and as the whalers, who stand
on the whale and on stagings rugged
over it, cut through the vertebrae with
their keen cutting-out spades other
men on the deck of the ship heave and
haul on the tackle until the mighty
head is clear of the body
Often head like that will be so big
water the tip of the mouth will be
high in the air, as high as the spars of
the whaleship.
Then the whalers begin to cut into
the head until they open what Is known
by them as the cease" This contains
the spermaceti. 1t is a beautiful. clear,
whitish fluid, and it is dipped out with
buckets and put into special casks. 1t
is stored away in the hold in a separate
place from the whale oil. and it brings
good price at all times, for the de-
mand for spermaceti is unceasing.
The Chinese obtain great deal of
extremely fine wax from n small in
sect called pela. 1t lives on trees, and
the Chinese cultivate the pela just as
other races breed the honey bee The
pela, however, produces nothing eX-
cept wax.
This insect produces small masses
of pure white wax. and it is used by
the Chinese and japanese for making
candles to be burned in Buddhist tenn
pies. The wax is used also for me-
dicinal purposes.
Another wax insect lives in certain
districts of India. 1t is not propagated
as the Chinese pela is, but it produces
very valuable wax, which will be
made an article of considerable COM
mercial Importance some day.-St.

CALIFORNIA SCENERY.
There Is n Glory in II Tint Inspires
the Poets of the Western
senbonrd.

As long as there remains the love
of beauty in the human soul, so long
will the glory of California scenery,
and that of the whole Pacific coast,
prove a source of inspiration to the
poetic mind, says Herbert Bashford,
in Atlantic. Descriptive verse has
been from the beginning a marked
feature of the literature of this re-
gion. In fact, the term Landscape
poets" may be properly applied to
this bevy of songbirds which seemed
to the late Maurice Thompson to
have taken complete possession of
the entire western seaboard." Suf-
flee to say, that if volume of verse
were written by Californian which
reflected nothing of the states scenic
beauty or it's warmth of color, it
would not only come as surprise
to most reviewers, but the loyalty
of the poet might be seriously ques-
toned. While all this display
of local color may seem too apparent
an effort on the part of Californians
to place upon their work the stamp
of a definite locality, and may be con-

Vogue of the Peacock.

Bird fanciers are predicting vogue
for the peacock. They say that people
who can afford it have been lately buy
ing hundreds of them for their coun-
trv places. Ornament is one consid-
Grafton, but there is another thing that
recommends the brilliant creature in
a more practical way. Some one dis
covered not long ago that thSre is no
watchdog equal to the peacock as a
guardian against thieves and maraud-
ing tramps. Perched on the roof of an
arbor or outbuilding of the estate, a
peacock will announce in shrill, discord-
ant notes that can be heard mile
away the presence of suspicious look
ing strangers within the grounds.
