gregational society here became sc
weak that its church disbanded, the
property was sold and Presbyterian
church was organized in its stead rms
was the fatal blow to the school, since
the students were thus deprived OF .

international Judging Contest.

Ames. Iowa, June S.-Perhaps no
single feature Of the International Live
Stock exposition has created wider in
terest or had more far-reaching results
than the students Judging contest. Last
year when there was some uncertainty
about the continuance of the contest,
Mr. John Clay, Jr., of Clay, Robinson &
Co, and Mr.. Alvin II. Sanders, of the
Breeders Gazette, generously came to
the rescue and contributed $3.50 each
for the payment Of prizes, thus insuring
the continuance of the contest. Hon.
w. c. Edwards, of Rockland, Ont, con-
trbuted $50 and last years contest was
by far the keenest and most interest
ing that has yet been held. The con-
testants numbered twenty seven young
men, representing six agricultural col
leges of the United States and Canada,
and thirty-six farmers sons. from eight
states. Messrs. Clay and Sander will
this year continue the $500 contribution
to be divided into twelve prizes. rang
ing from 500 down. The rules and
conditions governing the contest will
be published in the preliminary classl-
fication which will soon be issued by
the exposition management.

DAMAGE IN MoNoNA COUNTY.
Supervisors Estimate Loss by Floods
VIII Reach $4,000,

! Onawa, June S.--The supervisors Of
| Monona, at their recent session. made
a computation, as near as could be
made at this time, of the losses by
| floods, and think the damages to
bridges. grades and approaches will
exceed $4,000. Five bridges are gone
in Supervisor Johnsons district, and
many grades washed out and injured.
The Turin grade between Onowa and
Turin was under water for some time
and is injured considerably as the
grade was low The Perry grade is
higher and better mode. and is not
thought to have suffered so much. The
grade across Blue lake is badly injured,
and Will have to be practically rebuilt.
Blue lake is higher now than for many
years, and begins to look old fashioned.
The year of the lake going dry has
vanished, and land at the south end of
the lake, where corn was raised for
several years, now has water enough
to float a steamboat. Gard lake is al
so full to overlooking. with u good
stream at the outlet running into the
Missouri river.
About the only amusement that has
that of wolf hunting The high water
on the West Fork and Little Sioux riv-
ers has driven all the wolves onto a
narrow ridge, which extends from the
Gives settlement west, and there are
plenty of wolves to be found close
around the farms. Jake Prichard has
a pack of hounds. and there have been
many exciting chases after the animals
this week Owing to the ground being
so soft that the horses could not run
fast the wolves have managed to escape
in several cases. but Jake's
fox hounds from Smithland will be talk
en-, with a number of greyhounds to the
Oliver settlement, and the party who
start at sunrise, expect to capture a
number of wolves and have some sport
There is one large gray wolf that has
been seen a number of times that the
party is especially anxious to capture.
He is reported to be monster animal
and a tough customer with more bad
habits than is attributed by the Record
to the Gray Wolves" in Chicago. This
wolf is thought to be a timber wolf
escaped from the western ranges. and
is likely to prove a tough subject for
the dogs to handle

A Farmers Money Gone.

Waterloo, June S.--According to the
reports of those who We're visitors to
the Wallace sideshow yesterday there
was something doing in the way of
gambling and suckers We're more num-
erous than blackbirds on a newly
plouglled field. 1t appears that there
were four schemes whereby the unwary
We're fieeced of their hard earned cash,
but the two which did the biggest vol
ume OF business were the roulette
wheel operated by woman, and the
shell game, not operated with shells
the same. Those who bucked the tiger
found they We're painfully short In
every instance, except the campers, who
We're in most part boys from Waterloo
and vicinity.
The biggest loser on the roulette
wheel, operated by a woman who was
certainly master of all the beguile-
ments and allurements necessary to ex-
tract the nlckels, dimes and dollars
from the pockets of those who would
beat the other fellow at his owu game,
was Harry Lansing, young farmer
of Waterloo township. He lost be-
tween $3.50 and $500, according to his
own admissions.
Mr.. Lansing says he begin playing
small amounts, and had every assur-
ance in his own mind that he would
succeed in winning. Tie smaller
amounts were doubled until he found
that he had invested over $3.50 in the
institution.
When his money was all gone he
quiz.
Mr. Lansing naturally felt hurt tc
have his pocketbook so devastated and
his only hope then was to appeal to
the officers of the law. He told his
story to Sheriff Law and warrants
were issued for the arrest of the parties
