FAST AUTOMOBILE TRIP.
Average Speed Of Thirty Miles An
Hour Made.

Hour Made.
Special to Times Republican.
Hampton, Oct. 15.-Traveling across
the country at the speed of the aver
age passenger train now seems within
the possibility of the automobile. In
q recent trip from Hampton to Mason
City, a distance of about thirtythree
miles, r. A. Hartman Of this city,
made the remarkable time of one hour
and twelve minutes. The speed of the
motor car on race tracks has been
demonstrated as being equal to that
of locomotive, but to drive ma
chine across country roads at a rate
Of twenty-five to thirty miles an hour
has heretofore seemed impossible.
On the record breaking trip Mr..
Hartman carried three passengers In
a two seated Oldsmobile. The roads
were in perfect condition and the run
was made without a stop of any kind.
The trip between Hampton and
Mason City is a popular one with au-
tomobilists as the road lies thru a
level section Of the country and the
roads are always in the best of shape.
The best time that had been made on
this same run before this was made in
one hour and thirty minutes by a
Rambler machine.

Dubuque. Oct. Is. Prof. Watson,
clarvoyant, palmist, second sighter
and several other things, languishes In

ling. He will be given a preliminary
examination before Justice Clab, today
and In the meantime he must remain
in custody unless he produces $500 in
the coin of the realm. Justice Glab
for his appearance and altho 1t is said
that Watson has n roll big enough to
pad an arm chair he failed to exhibit
enough of it to satisfy the magistrate.
The complaining witness against
Prof. Watson is Henry Frank an aged
man who lives in the upper end of the
city. He charges the clairvoyant with
finn Tanning him out Of $50 in sound
money. for which he has nothing to
show but scrap of paper. The VIC
tim is an old man and is unable to
speak the English language and 1t was
necessary to have an interpreter for
him when he appeared against the aim
list in the police court.
Tuesday afternoon Mr.. Frank called
on the professor The first question
asked by the professor was regarding
the financial condition of his visitor
and when the latter said in broken
English that he had $40 he was asked
to produce it. The professor then
brought forth a small sack into which
he placed the money and then attach
ing a string tied it around the old
mans neck. The old man was told to
come back the following day when he
would receive advice that would make
him a rich man. The clairvoyant adj
monished him not to say word to
anybody.
Told Fairy Story.
On Wednesday the old man returned
to the clairvoyant and the latter took
possession Of the money and placed it
in an envelope and made a few magic
passes over it. The old man was then
told that he would soon come into q
fortune from the old country, but to
say nothing about 1t or the money
would never come. The professor
then gave Mr.. Frank receipt for $40.
saying he received the money for adj
vice.
After he left the clairvoyant the old
man became uneasy and told friend
of what had transpired. The latter ad-
yised him to notify the police and he
did and the arrest of Watson followed.
Watson had nothing to say when ar
raigned In police court, saying ne
would have lawyer represent him at
the examination. 1t Is not improbable
that the charge against Watson is not
strong enough to hold him.

chronic ailment terminated his life.
He was born in Ohio. spent most of his
early life in Kentucky and Indiana
and i'll 1854 moved to Henry county,
Iowa, where he was married to Miss
Mary Van Wrinkle. About ten years
later he removed to Wapello county
and has been continuous resident of
this county for nearly forty years.
His long residence in the county has
made him the acquaintance and the
friendship of many of the older citi-
zens.
OF him 1t can well be said, that an
upright, honest, conscientious and
faithful Christian man has gone to his
reward. In his words and acts he
measured up to the limit of his UNDER
standing and his beliefs. His purpose
was to be right and to do right, and
this embraces all that can be said Of

In early life Mr.. Robinson united
with the Methodist Episcopal church
and remained a faithful and devoted

such delight to illuminate his declining
years, he sank into the peaceful rest
of those who experience and know

than thirty years enables me to pay
this truthful tribute to the memory Of
a departed friend. l. N. Mast.
