CARPENTERS STRIKE.
Mechanics Working at Pottery Plant
Walk Out Monday as Result of Dis

| satisfaction.
| The Marshalltown Pottery Plant, al
tho not yet under active operations,
| has already become the scene of labor
troubles, and as a result of Disagree
ment with Manager Mathews eight or
ten of the union carpenters walked out
Monday. The men claim their
action Is the result OF the
preference shown non union men
over union men, and as result of
which they concluded to strike. To-
| day there are but two carpenters work
ing on the buildings, and both OF these
! are non union men. A meeting of the
Carpenters Union was held Monday
night, and a committee has been ap-
pointed to wait upon Mr.. Mathews with
view, IL possible Of settling the diff
fculties.
| Manager Mathews of the pottery
company, when seen today, stated that
| four carpenters employed at the works
had quit, and he was perfectly willing
that the matter should be adjusted as
| soon as possible. He further stated
that the trouble arose from cause for
which the company was in nowise to
blame. Owing to awaiting the arrival
of machinery, lumber, ETC., work for the
carpenters had become slack, and rath-
er than lose the men by letting them
go temporarily, they had endeavored to
| find work for all. while 1t was not all
exactly in the line of a carpenters
trade, he had found employment for
every one. Some of the men took ex-
ception to tn and without warning
walked out. 1t Is believed the matter
will be settled in few days, and will
not seriously interfere with building
operations.

Mr.. SIZE ANNOUNCES
Fourth Candidate in Contest for The
Shricvajty Appears.

The fourth candidate in the race for
sheriff before the republican primaries
to be held on March 10 makes his pub
|lic announcement today. The latest
candidate to make himself known is Mr..
William A. Size, who has been a resi-
dent OF this city for thirty-six years.
Mr.. Size came here in the spring Of
1866 and engaged in the brick manu-
featuring business. He has been in the
business ever since, in company with
John Sieg, until very recently, when the
plant was disposed Of. Mr.. Sizes BUSH
ness has brought him into contact with
residents of every section of the coun-
ty, and he therefore feels that he has
a wide acquaintance from which he can
solicit patronage at the polls. He made
the canvass for sheriff five years ago,
when Captain w. B. Mills was running
for a second term. While in the field
only three weeks he made very ored-
table showing, so creditable, in fact,
that he feels greatly encouraged over
the present outlook.

DEATH OF EARLY SETTLER.
John s. Hayne, One of First Settler
Of Marshall County Dies This Morn
-. e nId Are


ina of Old Age.
John s. Hayne, one of the first set
tiers and Oldest residents of this coun-
tv died at the home Of his daughter,
Mrs. Mary e. Warren, 205a South
First avenue. this forenoon at IL
o'clock. Complications brought on by
his extreme age caused his death, ana
altho he had shown signs of decline for
the mast three years his condition was
not considered serious until very re-
Gently.
John Hayne was 80 years Of age at
the time Of his death and was born IN
Jefferson county, Ohio. He came TO
Marshall county in June, 1854, and 10
Gated on the farm about six miles
west of the city now known by every
one as Haynes Grove. AT the tllhs
of his arrival there were but three
dwelling houses built on the present
site of this city, they being the homes
of the Rice Arson and Wells families.
In December of the same year MS
family arrived and they continued to
live on the farm until 1875. when they
removed to this city, where they have
since made their home.
Mr.. Hayne was a blacksmith by
trade and for years his shop at his
farm was the only one in the neishbor-
hood. On coming to this county he
brought with him from the east the
first reaper and threshing machine
ever used in the county, and the mrs.
threshing done with it was in Timber
Creek township. He erected log
dwelling house and also one of the, first
saw mills in the county. The house
was destroyed by fire five years later
and the saw mill was swept away by
the high water of 1881. A curious fact
in connection with the house was that
all the finished lumber used in its con-
struction was hauled by team from
Muscatine. A few years before COM
ing to Iowa Mr.. Hayne made a trip
TO California by the way of Cape Horn
and returned via the isthmus of Pana-
ma. Mr.. Hayne was among the very
few, now living, VINO had survived
long enough to see the rolling pra1rie
of this section of the county trans
formed into the present city of Mar
shalltown.

WHAT is A "coLD2"
The Word That Covers a Multitude
of Ills Expounded.

Professor Lohnberg, in the Vienna
Clinical Review, on an essay on colo
In the head says that the Ordinary
cold is no individual complaint, but
only collective name for large num-
Der of different complaints"
He continues, THE attempt to dis
cover a universal remedy against q
cold is Just as absurd as to search for
a generally efficacious remedy for
headache" The particular complaint
of which the cold is the symptom
can only be ascertained by careful ex-
animation of the nasal cavities and
neighboring parts" Hence sufferers
should be circumspect in the use of
remedies.
The professor says only that which is
true, but of which the mass of man
Kind is ignorant. Colds are of innu-
merable varieties, but the most COM
mon one is that which is persistently
misunderstood. 1t is attributed to any
thing but the right cause, which is a
microbe.
All its symptoms are those Of a high
~ infectious fever. and the public in
stead Of blaming the microbe of infec-
ton and striving to kill it will persist
in denouncing drafts. wet feet, low
temperature, etc.
They exclude air, the enemy of the
microbe. from their rooms; they supply
a temperature in which it can multiply,
and, having become thoroughly inocu-
lated by breathing the germ laden at
mosphere, they find that cold current
of air causes them to shiver. The shiv-
ering of the ordinary mind decides the
question of causation.
1t is significant of every fever that
it begins with shivering, and cold
is no exception.
Cold, wet feet, drafts, etc, are at
most only accessories. By putting a
greater etrain on the animal economy
they decrease Its resistance to micro
bal infection.

THE KADlAk BEAR.
His Winter Habits Much Like Those
of Bears the World Over.

Hig Winter Habits Much Like T0obo
OF Bears the World Over.
The Kadiak bear finds no trouble IN
getting all the food he wants during
the berry season and during the run Of
the various kinds Of salmon, which
lasts from June until October. At this
period he fattens up, and upon this fat
he lives through his long winter sleep.
When he wakes in the spring, he Is
very weak and hardly able to move, SO
his first aim is to recover the use OF
his legs This he does by taking short
walks when the weather Is pleasant,
returning to his den every night. This
light exercise lasts for week or so,
when he sets out to seek upon the
beach kelp, which acts as purge. He
now lives upon roots, principally OF the
salmon berry bush, and later nibbles
the young grass. These carry him
along until the salmon arrive, when he
becomes exclusively fish eater until
the berries are ripe. have been told
by the natives that just before he goes
into his den he eats berries only, and
his stomach is now SO filled with fat
that he really eats but little.
The time when the bears go into win
ter quarters depends upon the severity
Of the season. Generally speaking, it
is in early November, shortly after the
cold weather has set in. Most bears
sleep uninterruptedly untll spring, but
occasionally they are found wandering
about in midwinter. My natives seem
ed to think that only those bears which
have found uncomfortable quarters are
restless and that they leave their dens
at this time of the year only for the
purpose of finding better ones.-From

James II. kidder, in Outing.

and progressive young men, who is at

In 1892 she resigned her position as

worth which she possessed in her call

which brought large patronage, and
her school has the unique distinction
of being the largest private school of

The purchase of grounds and the erec-
