would say, while pointing to grin

are here you may as we'll have try to

A few lads would consent to trial

While they were pouring hot mass

his voice as to make it appear to pro-

"Gr-r-r-gr-h-uh. That's hot!''
This was too much, and, without
exception, the lads dropped the basin
and bolted.
The doctor began to d,spair cf ever
getting a suitable helpmate until a
small boy c.me and vas given the
basin and spoon.
After the first mouthful the ske E.

"Gr-r-r-uh-r-hr! That's hot"
Shovelling in scalding cruel as fast
as ever, the boy raped the skull and
impatiently retorted:
"Well, JEST blow ont, ye auld

The doctor sat down on his chair
and fairly roared, but when the laugh
was over he engaged the lad on the

Cockrell decided to leave Jackson fON
ever
Coclrell had am engagement with d
young lady upon the afternoon set fot
his departure, and as he had business
to attend to before he left the girl
suggested that she had better accom-.
pany him through the streets, as the
assassins, who were known to be lying
in wait for him would be less likely I'd
shoot at him when he was walking
with woman.
Cockrell agreed that it would be best
for him not to go up town alone, and
telephoned the young lady that hid
would call at her home at O'clock
and that they would then go uptown.
On his way to the home of the girl,
Cockrell had either to pass the resi-
dence of some Of his avowed enemies
or to pass near the court house, and
believing that the assassin would be
more likely to shoot from the court
house in the daylight than from resia
dence he chose the latter route. AS he
passed the court house and turned

in diameter and struck the door Of the

from the windows of the court house,
but it was top late to turn back and he
continued running. AS he passed I'm.

from the pain of the wound, Cockrell
staggered forward only to receive an.

pathetic feature of the CockreU
assassination was that the young lady
with whom Codkrell had the engage,

ing:
Gov. A. B. Cummins of Iowa will
be satisfied with running for reelection
to his present Office. without seeking

81 have no desire for the position
he said Nebraska has candidate for
the vice presidency in Judge Webster,
who is well known to the lawyers oil
of my state being given the honor Of
choosing the nominee, but am not aft.
er the place"
On the chances the democratic party
has of victory, Governor C,lmmins ar,
gued that the only hope of the party
lies in unity.
UNLESS conservative candidate is
named on a conservative platform and
both are supported by Mr.. Bryan the
democrats hive no show" he said. "Mr,
Bryan is weak about equally with Mr..
Cleveland. Neither can lead the party
to victory, but the support Of both is
needed by the nominee. If there is adv
solute unity it won't be a foregone con-
clusion that the republicans will win.
| think Judge Parker of New York is
the strongest man they have
Governor Cumnlins said that unity
among the democrats in Iowa will
probably reduce his majority. He was

City Water Supply Co., which were
purchased by a pool of Ottumwa citi-
zens last March at Is per cent have
increased in value and an offer has
been received from New York firm
