COMISKEY IS COMING
Chicago White Stocking. Base Ball
Team Plays Here April 15-cheap
Chance to See League BaII-RaiI-
roads Make Excursion Rates.

The chance to see league baseball at
home will probably crowd Finkle's park
at Marshalltown to the limit Wednes-
day April Is. Comiskey's great Amer
lean association team, already picked
as pennant winner, crosses bats with
the famous Iowa College team, of Grin
nell, that day. The Comiskey team is
an aggregation of winners. Callahan,
who led the pitchers in the per cent
age columns last year; Daily. the prem-
Ter second baseman and Sullivan, the
crack of all catchers are with the Chi
cago team and assure an exhibition
worth going miles to witness.
The Grinnell team is in perfect con-
dition and able to make Chicago play
it's best and snappiest ball. Comis-
keys men are, however. just on edge
at the beginning Of the baseball sea-
son, and able to play the game OF their
lives. 1t is sure to be grand exhibition
of the national game, and offers all OPP
portunity to see the very highest type
OF baseball, chance which will not
occur again this season outside of the
great league cities.
The big new amihitheatre at the park
is arranged so that every one COM
mands an excellent view Of the dia-
mond. Every possible arrangement for
the comforts of those In at
tendance upon the bame has
been made by the management and ex-
cursion rates have been secured on the
Iowa Central north and south and on
the Story City branch. The price of
admission will be made cheaper than In
the league cities, where Is cents and
$1OO is the usual price for desirable
seats. Admission to the game of April
LIS will not exceed so cents.
Hundreds of people from outside
towns will be sure to take advantage
of the low railroad rates and see the
greatest game Of the season at Mar
shalltown, Wednesday April Is.

GIVES RELIEF QUICKLY.
Regular Use Of Hyomsi Cures Most
Stubborn Case Of catarrh.

Regular Use of Hyomei Cures Most
Stubborn Case Of catarrh.
No other medicine gives such prompt
relief as Hyomei in the treatment of
catarrh.
This first breath OF this remedy
soothes and heals the irritated and
smarting air passages, and the regular
use for few days or weeks will cure
the most stubborn case. Some of the
reports from those who have been cured
OF catarrh by Hyomei read like mira
cles.
John S. Gray. of Richmond Hills, Pa.
writes: 81 am 50 years old and have
been sufferer with catarrh in the
head for twenty-five or thirty years. i
have doctored with many specialists
and they all told me that the disease
was incurable on account of my age.
After using Hyomei a short time was
greatly benefited and can now say that
am entirely cured. II has been SIX
months since stopped using the rem
edy and still remain cured.
In nearly every town and village OF
the country can be found those who
have been cured of catairh by Hyomei.
In Marshalltown there are probably
over a thousand people whose health
has been restored by this remarkable
treatment.
Mcbride & Will sold package after
package and every one has been with
personal guarantee to refund the money
IL It did not cure. Only two outfits have
been returned and in each instance the
money was paid back without question.
You run no risk whatever in buying
Hyomei and your word decides the
question as to whether you pay for the
remedy or not.
Can you afford to suffer longer with
catarrh when you can guy guaran-
teed treatment on this plan?

Mrs. Bertha Mason, II Years

Bullet Thru Her Body
WILL IN ALL PROBABILITY DIE
Bullet Enters tho Left Breast, Just

and Emerses Back Of the Shoulder
Blade-Admits Committing the Deed
Because Of Jealousy.

Because she felt her husband, George
Mason, wasn't true to her Mrs. Bertha
Mason, aged II years, tried to end her
existence Monday afternoon at her
home, tumble down shanty lying west
of the Iowa Central tracks leading to
the Timber Greek quarr.es of the Leg
Grand Quarry Company, southeast of
the city. Mrs. Mason has undoubtedly
altho she is still alive. Her condition
is extremely critical and 1t is not
thought possible that she can live long
er than the day.
Mrs. Mason was formerly Bertha M.
Cramer, daughter Of Charles Cramer, Of
Timber Greek township, and was mar
ried to George N. Mason en- July S, 1902
Her husband is %, and is employed in
the Timber Creek Quarries. Mrs. Ma
son has suspected that Ter husband was
quite intimate with another woman OF
the neighborhood, and has been encour-
aged in her suspicious. 1t is said. by
neighbors, who told her that Mr.. Mason
was not true to her. This belief,
strengthened by the talk of her friends,
and, perhaps, coupled with the loss OF
her child, which died shortly after birth
in February led her to attempt her life.
Mrs. Mason secured 3S-caliber re-
volver and, while her husband was In
the kitchen, placed the gun to her left
breast and fired. The hall went crash
ing entirely thru the body. passing over
the heart, which 1t narrowly missed,
penetrating the top of the left lung. and
emerging at point Immediately below
the left shoulder blade. 1t struck the
window casing, detecting, and fell to
the floor, where County Attorney
Northup found it.
Officers Are Summoned.
The sheriffs office was notified after
the suicide by parties who thought that
the tragedy might be other than sui
eide. The possibility of murder was
limited at, and Deputy Sheriff Hutson
and County Attorney Northup went to
the scene to investigate. Mrs. Mason
admitted to the officers that she had at
tempted her own life, aud said that her
husbands actions were the cause Ma
son says his wife's suspicious OF his
actions are groundless.
Woman Is Very Low.
Word from the woman's attending
physician at LeGrand this afternoon
states that Mrs. Mason's condition is
extremely critical. Her pulse is very
weak and extremely rapid, and internal
hemorrhages have occurred. There Is
every indication that the right lung is
filing up, and there IS scarcely one
chance in a thousand for her recovery.

Il Has Just Come TO Light in Chicago.
Chicago, April IA new scheme has
come to light in butter circles that is
proving very manipulators. A number
of firms are said to be engaged in the
manufacture of butter on the principle
of process butter, without complying
with the revenue laws. Retail dealers
have found it very profitable selling
the article, but are now likely to run
