The Heiqht of Man.

London Globe: M. Deniker, a we'll
known French anthropologist, has recent-
ly shown that while the individuals vary
in height, the average or mean height for
the same people remains fairly constant.
The lowest s%tatures occur among the
Monbutto of Africa. the Negritos Of the
Philippines (Asiai, the Caribs of Guiana.
and Venezuela America), n the Lapps
of Scandinavia (Europe). The Tenggeras
Of eastern Java, the Jews Of Russian Pos
land. the Salches of British Columbia, the
Mozabites Of Africa and the natives of
New Britain (Oceanica) are not much
taller. All these peoples are below the
mean Of LEO meters. Above this mean
come the Aderbaidjani of Persia and
Trans-Caucasia, the Kabards Of the eau
casus (Europe), the negroes Of the United
States, the Maoris of New Zealand and
the Ottawa Indians. All these are below
Ito meters. Finally, the very tallest peo-
pie are the Cheyenne Indians of the
United States, 1.74o meters; the Peals, OIL
the French Soudan, 1.741 meters: the
tiers, the Polynesians Of the Marquesas
islands (Oceania), Las meters, and, above,
all, the Scotch agricultural c.4ss Of CAL
loway, 1.7e2 meters. The finest men," ac-
cording to our authority, are the Galwe.I
gians, while the smallest are the Akkaa,
of the Monbutto country. The real|
"Brobdingnagians," then, are Scots, and
the "Lilliputians" are Africans.

Modern Life and sedative,.

London Spectator: 1t is only DOCTOR
and those connected with the sale Of drugs
who know the immense amount of soda
tives consumed by the public at the pres
ent day. Every man with a large ac-
quaintance numbers among his Immediate
friends some who take them in one form

common to our advanced civilization.
These drugs are many and various. and
are sold under different conditions. Many
of them are supplied over the counter

mention all the bromides and other drugs
which, on the one hand. diminish pain,
produce sleep and decrease irritability.
and. on the other hand, lessen the yigor
of the organism, alter the quality Of the
blood for the worse and tend to shorten
life. Although the sale Of still more DO
tent drugs or compounds Of them is re-
stricted to registered chemists, there is
frequently very little difficulty in procur-

patent medicines and sold under the pro-

What's the usa2

A revolution is taking place in duelline
in Paris. A number of eminent experts
have proposed a special kind Of revolver,
which, instead Of being loaded with metal
lie projectiles, is charged with arauna
balls, which are just solid enough not to
penetrate the skin. A number of trials
lave already taken place.
The revolver duel thus becomes like a
sword duel, with all its imposing cere-
monial, such as stepping up to the line,
loading and the order to fire. The adj
versary is not to be hit on the left side.
and this gives occasion to very clever
maneuvering.
Those who a made use of the new
method of duelling are quite satisfied al
the superiority of the new method over
the old one. One thing is certain, that
there Is no danger OF kiiling your d
by mistake.

Arthur G. Mundhenk, aged % years,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. n. w. Mundhenk,
of 202 North First avenue, died Sunday
afternoon at 2:20 O'Clock, after an ILL
ness with quick consumption, colnpli-
Gated with heart trouble. His death
was rather sudden, for altho he had
been afflicted with the disease for two
months he had been able to be around
until Saturday. when he was compelled
to take to his bed.
Arthur Mundhenk was born in Gill
man April Z. 1879, and with his parents

i member of the old volunteer fire de-
partment and for a short time, until he

THREE INJURED
N A RUNAWAY
Young Women Thrown From
a Buggy and Miss Cora Gal
loway Seriously Hurt
SKULL MAY BE FRACTURED
SKULL MAY BE FRACTURED
Miss Blanch McLarnan sustains Badly
sprained Left Arm, With Possibly
a Fracture in the Elbow Jont-Miss
Lottie Evans Slightly Injured-Horse
Frightened at Street Car

A runaway accident ut about 1880
O'Clock Sunday afternoon. at the corner
of Main and Third streets, resulted in
injuries to three well-known young
ladies, Miss Cora Galloway, Miss
Blanche McLarnan and Miss Lottie
Evans. Miss Galloway was very SER
iously hurt and it has not been deter
mined yet, to certainty, just what the
outcome will be. 1t is thought She may
have possibly suffered a fracture OF
the inner table of the skull.
The young ladies were returning
home from the A. c. Thompson home,
four miles north Of the city. Miss
Galloway was driving, and was APP
preaching Main street on Third just
as a Third street car swung around
the curve. The horse silied, running
the buggy on the curling, and upset
ting the occupants. Miss Galloway fell,
striking the pavement on the back OF
her head. She was picked UP in an
unconscious state, carried to the home
of DIR. E. L. Burkart, across the street.
Larnan and Miss Evans were also
taken to DIR. Burkarts.
Miss Galloway did not regain con-
seriousness until this morning, and suf-
fered a great deal from the shock. For
q half hour Sunday evening 1t was
thought she could not possibly survive.
This morning, however,, she became
rational, but gave evidences of the trou-
BILE in the region of the brain. Her
physician is not sure that the inner
table of the skull has not sustained a
slight fracture, and says that In any
event there is a great danger FROM
some cerebral trouble developing.
Miss McLarnan's injury may develop
into something more serious. Her left
arm was badly sprained, and 1t Is
thought that possibly slight fracture
has been sustained in The elbow joint.
The arm is badly swollen this morning,
too badly, in fact, to determine. AT
first 1t was thought that the left clavi-
Gle had been fractured, but such did
not prove to be the case.
Miss Evans is the least injured, her
right knee being quite lady sprained.
Miss Galloway is we'll known in the
city and has many friends who viii
hope that her injury will result in no
serious consequences. She is a daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs John Galloway, of
503 West Boone street, and has been
employed as a teacher in the rural
schools at different times since her
graduation from the high school few
years ago. Last year she taught at
Estherville, Emmett county, where her
brothers, Drs. A. C. ana w. p. Gallo
way, reside.

Hollen is not known here, and so far
as can be learned never lived here. The
New York theatrical managers are not
contemplating closing their theaters be-
cause of the criticism.
A press dispatch sent out from New
York tells of Hollen's protest as fol-
lows:
Rev Elmer T. Hollen. of MARSHALL
town, Iowa, is in town and has at
tended several theaters where gambling
scenes are depicted. He makes viz
orous protest against gambling houses
being shown on the stage. OF one OF
the places he saw he said:
"'When l saw that gambling house
scene | fairly gasped. Certainly there
never was a more vivid presentation of
an abode of evil.
L am led to understand that your
district attorney has succeeded in
closing many OF the gambling houses
of the city. Why, then, does he allow
roulette tables and faro tables and card
games to be played on the stage of the
theater? How do you expect this great
work is to be kept up at this rate? Men
in evening dress and beautiful women
in low cut gowns move about the tables
in this gambling scene. Apparently all
are happy and contented. l consider
it bad thing for the youth of New
York."

Charles Goodman, farm hand living
near Luray, was arrested Saturday
afternoon by Constable Haas on a war;

DEATH GAME SUDDENLY.
Krs. Elmer A. Tuffree Expires
While Sleeping by Her
Husbands Side
HEART TROUBLE THE CAUSE
Had Not Been in Her Usual Health
for About q Week, But Appeared
to Feel Better Saturday Evening
Husband Awakens to Find Her
Dead.

| Death came painlessly and quickly to
Mrs. Elmer A. Tuffree, who, while
asleep Saturday night silently passed
| from this life. Mr.. Tuffree was dis
by his wife moaning, as tho she were
troubled by a dream, and rousing up,
he placed his arm under her head only
to find her iifeless. Heart trouble is
assigned as the cause of DEATH
Mrs. Tuffree has not been in her US
ual health for few days, but had been
able to be around the house attending
to her duties. Saturday evening she
told Mr.. Tuffree she believed she had
the grippe, altho she thought she felt
better than she had during the day.
She talked cheerfully while the family
was preparing to retire and after they
had gone to their rooms. About 4
o'clock Mr.. Tuffree was awakened by
sounds such as sleeper makes when
disturbed by dreams. He spoke to her,
but getting no response he attempted
to arouse her. He called to his son
George, who slept in an adjoining room,
to bring light, and when it arrived
father and son realized they were in
the presence of death.
Mrs. Tuffree was, prior to her mar
riage, Anna l.. Conrad, the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. M. Conrad, the former
now deceased, and was born in Chicago
Jan. %. 1854. She was SO years of age
and was united in marriage to Elmer
A. Tuffree, Sept, 20, 1883. in Chicago
Soon afterwards she removed to Mar
shalltown, where she has since made
her home. She was a kind and af-
fectionate wife. of a genial and happy
disposition, and had many friends
among her acquaintance in the city
Besides her husband she leaves one
son, George, her mother and three sis
ters. The latter are Mrs. Charles Dunn
of New York; Mrs. Warren Nicholson,
of Chicago, and Mrs. A. Sundell of
Minneapolis.
The funeral arrangements have not
as yet been made, owing to the uncer-
tainty Of the arrival OF the relatives.

Annexation.
AT o'clock the prospects are not
very good for a heavy vote being polled
in todays election for city officers.
More interest is being taken in the First
ward than all of the others put to-
gether, because of the spirited contest
for councilman. Both Mr.. Henry and
Mr.. Dteterich are confident of victory.
The vote at o'clock in the various
wards was as follows: First, 800;
Second, 80; Third, sO5; Fourth, 1856;
Fifth, 139.
The annexation proposition, for
which the voters are compelled to cast
their ballots at the city building alone,
is not creating much interest, and is
quite generally forgotten. AT o'clock
but forty 1.-TWO votes had been cast.
The home protection tickets workers
are out in force and are making a
fight for the head of the ticket. But
little battling is being done, outside of
