Will Probably Finish Today.

The board of supervisors, which mas
been in session this week, will prooaply
finish its work this evening and ADJOURN
until the October meeting. The plans
for building the Thirteenth stree'
bridge have been occupying the atten-
ton OF the board today, and 1t looks
az If the bridge would be built this
fail providing the funds will admit OF
the expenditure. 1t is the sense OF .ne
board that as long as the new prldge
is to be put in it had better be SUB
stantial structure in every way than
one that will necessitate renewals every
few wears. The supervisors figure that
II will be cheaper in the end to invest
a. little more In the beginning. 1t mas
heen found that the bridge will cost
more than at first anticipated, for 1t
will have to be larger. The first estl-
mates were for a 2S-foot span, but
bridge of that size has been found to be
TOO short. The board is now figuring
on a bridge forty feet long, twenty-fouf
feet wide. with 3-foot sidewalk on
either side. Teams will be given pas
sageway on either side Of the street car
track. instead OF on one side only, SO
that the crossing Of the track may be
avoided. 1t will be steel turnout, with
abuttments of piling and boards. The
bridge will set on 1S-foot steel piers,
thirty inches in diameter, filled with
concrete. The board has made an eff
for, to get the Marshalltown Light,
Power & Railway Company to stand
part of the expense, but it's communica-
ton to the officials of the company has
not met with an answer.

YOUNG SOLDIER DEAD
First Veteran Of the Spanish American
War to Die in the Soldiers Home
Passes Away Wednesday Evening
Contracted Consumption While in the
service--Was Native of Fort Dodge

Harry II. Hamilton. of Fort Dodge,
veteran members of the Iowa Soldiers
Home, and the first Spanish American
war soldier to die at the institution.
| passed away at o'clock Thursday ev-
ening in the hospital, as the result OF
consumption, contracted In the serv-
| ice.
| Hamilton was only "a years of age,
| and was a native of Fort Dodge. He
| was a member of Company G, Thirty
ninth United States infantry, and en-
listed at Clinton. in September 1899
| He was discharged May 6. 1901 at San
| Francisco, when his regiment was mus
tered out Of service.
| Mami!ton's death was due to his
service in the Philippines, where he
was exposed to all sorts of weather
| and lived, for several months, in the
swamps of that country. His exposure
brought on a severe cold, which soon
developed into tuberculosis, from which
he was suffering when he came here
| from Fort Dodge, on November 8, last,
for treatment. He has been in the
hospital ever since. His father, Mr..
c. NJ Hamilton, and brother, Mr.. c. Q.
Hamilton. both of Fort Dodge, arrived
in the city Wednesday evening.
Hamilton is the young soldier who
was used by +. A. Maison last winter
in his evangelistic work" in this part
of the state, as one who was suffering
from consumption and would be given
whatever funds We're turned over to
him. Maison stated that the young
man needed a change of climate o.
treatment in a tuberculor institute, and
that he was anxious to help him.

solicitor for the company. is plalntlff,
and Roxie f. Scott. Marshalltown
milliner, is the defendant. The suit has
| been threatened for several days, ani
was commenced today. adding another
to the rapidly growing list of insurance
suits which are now pending in the
courts here.
Mr.. Lundy sues Miss Scott for
| s206.S0 on a note she made and de-
| livered TO him as the first annual prem
I ium on a $1,000 Insurance contract II
the Central Life Assurance Society, of
| Des Moines, of ten years life. Mr.. Lun-
| dy alleges in his petition that the note
| is now past due, but Miss Scott refuses
to pay it, and sues for the amount.
Miss Scott filed her answer today
She acknowledging making and deliv-
| ering the note, but claims that Mr.
Lundy secured 1t for the company by
| false representations. She states that
he told her in return for her paying
an annual premium of $206.S0 for ten
wears can aggregate of S2,06S without
INTEREST," at the end of ten years she
would receive back $4,000 and her IN
yestment would pay an annual dlVl-
dend of is per cent. She alleges that
Lundy told her the Central Life AS
surance Society had a larger surplus
than the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany of New York, that 1t had the
state OF Iowa behind it, and was as
strong and reliable as an Old line
company.
Miss Scott now alleges that these
demonstrations were false and fraudu-
lent. and refuses to pay the note there
for. She claims that her petition reads
only for the $4,000, or not as much as
she pays in on her annual premiums,
and for the accumulations. but does not
state on the face of 1t what these ac-
cunu!ations were to be and the 10 per
cent annual dividend is simply an out
side statement.
Major Charles Mackenzie, who
brought suit against the Northwestern
Life and Savings Company on behalf
of Miss Cathcart, testing the contracts
issued by that company, is the attorney
for Miss Scott in the present actios.
In the Cathcart case referred. 10 ~

the plaintiff secured a settlement pc
fore the case was brought into court.
