Ed Thomas and Chas. Devore ac-

down the fineal OF the spire on the
M. E. church. 1t was bent in the
job Of taking it down, Strengthening

Webster City.
A good sized audience was present
at the Baptist church to see and hear
the handsome new Barkhoff pipe organ
Installed there last week. 1t is very
attractive instrument beautiful in con-
struction and rich in tone. The re-
cital was given by Professor Kenneth
e. Runkle of Waterloo, assisted by a
local quartet and Miss Coreyell of Wa
terloo soloist. The North West
.ern railroad company is making
some repairs upon it's bridge
over the Boone river in the northern
part of the city. A pile driver is being
used In the work. The bridge is a
new one, having been erected year
ago last fall. The repairs being made
are not extensive but are merely those
incident to all new bridges after hav-
ing been in place about a year.
Vinton.
The question of charging Vinton's
corporation limits, has been brought
before the city council and is in the
hands of the finance committee. The
new territory which might be annexed
adjoins west Ninton and is part of
that district known as Steel Town.I
There is also some territory on the east
which includes the G. d. Bacon and
U. e. Traer places and along the
southeast corporation line there are
quite a number of families living just
outside the limits. Taking in all the
extension of the city limits at these
places would mean the addition to
Vinton's census report of nearly zoo.
The move is looked upon in favorable
light by different members of the coun
ell and will likely be recommended by
the COMMITTEES

Grundy Center. March IT,
Editor Times Republican: In your
issue of today there appears special
from Des Moines. In this article the
writer undertakes to swallow up the
Anti Saloon League and the state mar
shall movement by the prohibition
party. Chairman Elwell, of the pro-
hibition party, reports forty-three
leagues formed and the primary pur-
pose of these leagues is to work up
public sentiment in favor of state con-
stabulary. Rankin, we'll known
talker, has been kept busy all winter
organizing these leagues" Permit me
to SAY TO the readers of your valuable
paper that I have absolutely nothing
to do with the prohibition party or the
formation of the leagues spoken of In
the above article. I represent the state
marshal movement which was formed
at Newton last spring with Rev. John
C. Willitis president and Rev. e. Ben
son, of Brooklyn. secretary. This move
ment is composed Of men of all parties
1t has no connection officially or other
wise with the prohibition or any other
party.
The state marshal movement has
large clubs organized in over forty
cities. These clubs are composed of
leading men in every place. At Vim
ton last week organized club with
152 men and the week before at Ft
Madison with eighty four men.
We. have two organizers in the field
and in few weeks a third man will
be in the field. one Of the foremost
and most eloquent Methodist preachers
in Iowa.
BY the Des Moines article 1t looks as
tho the prohibition party leaders We're
trying to steal the marshal movement
because of the popularity it has at
tanned when presented in nom parti-
san way. Honesty is an essential ele-
ment in all true refonners.

HAVE HAD THEIR DAY.
Old Fashioned Medicines for catarrh

Old Fashioned Medicines for catarrh
No Longer in Vogue.
For many years past the usual treat
ment for catarrh diseases was with To-
cal douches, sprays, inhalers and IL
quid medicines composed principally of
alcohol, all of which never cure but
simply give the temporary relief and
stimulation.
A thorough cure can be made only by
the treatment which removes the ca
tarrhal poisons from the blood.
A new remedy which meets the re-
quirements and which so far has been
remarkably successful in curing catarrh
is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membrane only
They can hardly be classed as Sc
cret patent medicine as they are COM
posed of such valuable remedies as
blood root, hydrastin, red gum of eu-
calyptus tree and similar antiseptics
combined in tablet form which cure
by eliminating from the blood and mu-
cous membrane the poisons of catarrh.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozenges to be taken
internally, allowing them to dissolve
in the mouth, thus reaching the throat,
trachea and finally the stomach.
If desired Trey may also be dissolved
in water and used as douche in adj
dition 10 the internal use. but it is not
at all necessary to use douche: few
of them dissolved in the mouth daily
will be sufficient. However, when there
is much stoppage of the nose. douche
made from these tablets will give i'm
mediate relief. but the regular daily
use internally will cure the whole ca
tarrhal trouble without resorting to the
inconvenience of douche.
DR.. Bennett stated that the Internal
treatment of catarrh by means of
pleasant medicated tablets is rapidly
taking the place of douches and local
applications and further says that
probably the best and certainly the
safest remedy on the market is the
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. as no secret
is made of their composition and all
the really efficient catarrh remedies
are concentrated in this tablet"
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets at so cents for full sized package
and he will tell you there is no safer,
more palatable, efficient and conven-
lent catarrh cure known to the trade.

Burlington.
A poor fellow, who claimed that he
had been working on a bridge gang in
the south, came into the city early
Tuesday morning. He was suffering
from smallpox. DR.. Harrell lost no
time. He sent the sick man to the
pesthouse and made inquiries with the
object of ascertaining whether others
had been exposed to infection. He did
not find anyone who had knowledge of
the man, except the physician, who
had promptly turned him over to the
health officer.

Sunday morning in the Christian
church Rev. j. NJ. Hoffman created
quite little surprise by announcing
that he would resign, the same to be-

said that he has been rendered other
positions which are better suited to
him. Mr.. Hoffman has not yet an
nounced where he will CO. but a short
time ago 1t was announced that he

Carriage Overturned. ilig1.a

Special to Times Republican.
Paullina, March 19.-The town of
Sutherland and vicinity was thrown in
to intense excitement yesterday when
place had been drowned in the Water
man creek, about six miles northeast of
the town.
The exact facts concerning the
drowning are difficult to obtain at this
hour, owing TO the excitement, but as
near as can be ascertained. are as fol-
lows: Mr.. Gleason, an elderly gentle
man, Delbert Bidwell, Oscar Bidwell,
and Clay Jordan, the three latter named
being young men, and all being promi-
nent business men and bankers of the
town of Sutherland, started out rather
early yesterday to attend a sale sew
eral miles in the country. from Suth-
erland.
They occupied a double carriage with
the top and side curtains all In place,
as the morning was rainy; in fact there
had been heavy rain during the hisH.,
causing the Waterman creek to be a
rushing torrent.
The unfortunate men did not under
stand the depth and character of the
stream and in attempting to ford the
same, the carriage was overturned ana
all borne rapidly down the stream, Mr..
Gleason and Delbert Bidwell to their
death.
Clay Jordan and Oscar Bidwell. the
latter a brother Of one of the drowned
men. were so far over come and ex-
hausted in reaching safety. that they
were unable to render any assistance
to their companions. and 1t was es-
pecially sad for Bidwell to have his
brother perish in his sight, and he I'M
able to rescue him.
The body Of Gleason was recovered
a few hours after the drowning, but the
body of Delbert Bidwell is still claimed
by the flood, altho hundreds OF men
are engaged in the search for 1t. Mr.
Jordan and Oscar Bidwell were brought
to town and are receiving medical
treatment, and it is hoped they Will re-
cover from the shock and exposure.
