The Hygiene of Perfumes.

Perfumes are not Selected for their hy- gienic value. but such they have. Doc tors tell us that handkerchief may be made antiseptic by the use of perfume
 The action of the spirit of the scent and the essential oils can destroy the germs Lavender is supposed tO sooth the nerves. that Is why the bed linen is lavender scented. Jasmine induces nerve exhaus- ton and depression. Don't use strong scent; use delicate, clean perfumes only.

ECHO OF A STRIKE
Fred Anderson Charged With
Shooting Into Crowd of
Moline Union Men.
ON TRIAL IN COUNTY COURT
Men Had CODgregated in Front of
His Boarding HOuse-In-
sane Case.

Fred Anderson, of Moline, is on trial
before jury in the county court on
charge of assault with deadly
weapon on a crowd of striking union
holders, into whom he is accused of
firing a revolver while they were gath
cred in front of his boarding house,
where a number of the men holding
the strikers places lodged.
Anderson is teamster for Will
liams, White &, Co.. one of the factories
affected by the molders' strike. Sew
eral of the non-union employees of
Williams, White & Co, who boarded
with Anderson. so the story goes, were
followed home from their work one
evening by a number of the strikers
and threatening remarks made to-
wards them.
Anderson says he feared the strik-
ers meant to cause trouble. and for
the purpose of showing them that he
was prepared. and, if possible to
brighten them away before they start
ed anything, he fired revolver shot
in the air, not intending to injure any
one. No one was hit.
On the other hand the strikers avow
they created no disturbance. They
had been idling in the neighborhood
of the factory, as was their custom
to get a glimpse of the men who were
filling their places when the latter
knocked off work and started for
their homes. They were simply pass
ing AndersOn'S house, which is in the
vicinity of the Williams. White & Co
shops. and that without any provoca-
don whatever they were attacked.

DEADLY SHAM BATTLE.
Five Persons Wounded at Waucoma
While Watching Mimic Battle.

Five Persons Wounded at Waucoma
While Watching Mimic Battle.
Waucoma, July THE real battle
of Manila bay was less sanguinary
than was the. mimic affair given on q
lake near this place on Saturday even
ing.
AS a fitting finale to the celebration
Of the day in this patriotic little town
1t was planned to give realistic i'm
itation of the manner in which Admiral
Dewey destroyed the Spanish feet on
the morning of May l, 1898. For this
purpose an imaginary Spanish fort
had been constructed and the Ameri-
can feet was made up of q number OF
senting warships. On these boats
were q number Of men carrying shot
guns and Roman candles and other
fireworks to be exploded towards the
fort.
The signal for the battle was given
and the work of destruction proceeded
In q most picturesque manner and the
people we're enjoying the spectacle
highly. But suddenly the applause
and shouts Of approval we're mingled
with cries Of pain, and two or three
people In the audience on the land
were seen to topple over. 1t was then
discovered that some of the gunners
had by mistake loaded with real shells
that small shot we're not only demol-
fishing the fort but were puncturing the
innocent bystanders. Those injured
were: Miss Quinn, load Of buckshot
striking her in the breast; Mrs. Robert
Scott, slight wound in the neck; Joseph
Goddard, wounded in the leg; Mrs.
Henry Logue, struck in the leg by
shot; Joe Lynch. part of hand torn of
by giant hrecracker.
Doctors were called as soon as the
accidents were discovered and tended
to the wounded. None of them are
dangerously hurt, unless compiled
lions should set in.

MURDER IN POKER GAME
Enoch eurrell Kills Frank Thompson
For 80 Cents.

Lamont, July 9.-The quiet little re-
union grounds at Davis City, small
inland town seven miles east of here,
has just witnessed a murder scene
that will long be remembered. Enoch
Burrell killed Frank Thompson with q
blow from his fist A report comes
that these two men with others, had
been playing poker in the park across
the river from the town. 1t seems
that Thompson had been losing and
owed Burrell 80 cents. AS the other
men arose to go home Burrell asked
Thompson when he was going to pay
him that 80 cents, and Thompson re.
piled, when you are big enough to
take it, "whereupon Burrell hit him a
terrific blow, and then another, in the
left temple which killed him instant
ly.
Burrell fearing rough treatment at
the hands Of Thompson's friends, i'm
mediately took his departure, going
with his father to the home of rela
tive near town. The news was sent
at once to the sheriff, who started
after the murderer and placed him ir
Jail at Leon.
While trouble over 30 cents was the
immediate cause of the tragedy, there
had previously been bad feeling be
tween these two men. About one yeal
ago they had fight, when Thompson
proved the better man, weighing near.
~ 200 pounds. Burrell Is small man,
weighing about 145 pounds, and is
rs years old.

/ Aarshalltown, July 9.--At the reg
ulAr monthly meeting Of the school
beard Superintendent William J..
Crane made report on certain state
ments published from the report Of
the recent Investigation made by Dr..
Hoffman. He stated that certain
statements made by DR.. Hoffman were
incorrect according to the school rec
ords. "A committee was appointed to
investigate the sanitary conditions In
the various schools. 7s7 - .9-s5
Superintendent Crane, who has
been investigating the matter In the
report, said that the report OF DE-
Hoffman ~ published In the newspa
pers, which showed that there had
been 1877 pupils between the ages OF
IA and Is years out of school on &C
count OF the fever, was incorrect. Mr..
Cranes report showed that there had
been 167 pupils sick, whose ages
ranged from to is years. The for.
mer's statement, he claimed, led the
public to believe that large per cent
Of the pupils sick were from the high
school building, while this was only
true Of q small proportion. He further
said that the statement Of DR.. Hon.
man regarding the water tank in the
high school building was SO worded
that the inference was drawn that
water was being used from 1t. The
truth Of the matter was, SO he claims,
that water from this tank was not
used until the sickness had subsidized,
his authority being the statement Of
Janitor ]. G. Carter. "A committee,
appointed from the members of the
board, will make thorough inspec-
ton Of the sanitary condition In the
various buildings and report with
recommendations.
