reading the claims of some of the
medicines that are advertised as cures
for catarrh.
The results from the use of Hyomei
are so remarkable in the cure OF ca

fact, tho, that Mcbride & Will, one OF
the best known druggists IN this sec

mower of Hyomei to cure catarrh that
they sell it under their personal guar
antee to refund the money If the pur-
chasers can say that it did not help
them ought to convince the most skep-
teal that Hyomei can be relied upon
to cure all catarrhal troubles no matter
how serious or deep-seated.

Catarrhal colds. which are so COM

been cured in a day. Mild cases Of ca

WANT A PATROL WAGON.
Police Force viii Make Effort to Sc
cure "Black Maria"

After chasing and rounding up a
gang of tramps that were holding forth
in the south part of town Wednesday
afternoon, and after Spending several
hours in the chase Marshal Nicholson
thinks it is about time the city has a
patrol wagon and will soon take steps
to secure one, at but very Little cost
to the city. 1t is conceded a patrol
wagon makes much more effective the
work of the police force, saves time,
trouble and work. Last year Marshal
Nicholson started subscription paper
and raised about 5000 for tile purpose,
when his injury stopped the work and
it was dupred He will begin again
and feels sure he can secure almost
all of the amount necessary for its
purchase. The plan is to keep the pa
troll wagon at the uptown fire station,
using the grays of the ladder truck
to draw It. The driver OF the fire truck
would also be the driver for the pa
troll wagon. The idea is favored by at
least a portion OF the council.

about one-half what it should be. Ii
properly developed they could accom-

they do. The foundation OF education

movement is a university extension

Intelligent people, reading public, an
aspiring people, and loyalty among
these people. In closing he gave some
statistical figures showing that in the
literary and scientific courses OF the
chautauqua there We're 10000 people
enrolled as students. and the number
reaches into the different countries of
Europe and Asia. The Japanese and
Russians were among the chautauqun
students, and in this one instance WAS
found the only thing in which they had
ever agreed. In addition TO these
courses there are between $4,000 and
10000 people taking the summer lee
ture courses.
The literature department of the
Women's Club has been pursuing the
chautauqua course for the past two
years, and has two years additional

Program for Regular Meeting i
CHARGE of literature DepaYtrr,ent.


The regular bi-weekly meeting of the
afternoon at the club parlors, in charge
|of the literature department of which
Mrs. Benjamin Packer is chairman
The program opened with very
charming piano number by Miss Emily
Perkins. Of Moline. Ill. Miss Perkins
was recalled and played another de-
lightful selection.
An old-fashioned debate was one of
the features of the afternoon. The
question was, Resolved, that the
theory of evolution explains the origin
of man. Miss Edna Fularton and
Mrs w. j. Head affirmed, and the
negative side was taken by Mrs. David
Lennox and Mrs George NJ. Lyon. Mrs
II. Il. Sears, Mrs. Joseph Holmes and
Mrs Benjamin Nichols acted as judges,
and the decision was for the affir1na-
tive.
Miss Rachel Cannon followed the de-
bate with an exercise in conundrums
the answers to which were furnished
by naming some author. The women
showed their familiarity with current
literature by guessing correctly and
without much hesitation, nearly all OF
the conundrums given.
In closing the program DR.. Elijah
Brown Jones, pastor of the First Bap-
fist church. addressed the club on The
Chautauqua as an Educator" DR..
Jones main contention was that the
chautauaua movement attempted the
culture of the whole man. He said
the neglect of the ability to do is d
criminal wrong; a wrong to ones self,
family and state. The chautauqua be-
lieved that as . rule men simply lived

The Marshalltown Electric, Street &

a mileage in Marshall county, north of

this at the lowest rate named, the Iowa
Central, $4,000 a mile, gives 100000,
which, at the same rate of taxation,
will yield to the city $4,000 per year. 1t
will thus be seen that in about twelve
years the railway company will have
repaid into the city an amount equal to
the tax given by the city.

We're cut and dried and rounded up for

action. Any number of democrats
conceded this morning that this is the
stand that will be taken by the county
in convention. The sound money men
and the Parker faction scarcely had a
look in, and Chairman Charles Henry
failed of election for delegate from his
precinct. None OF the delegations was
Instructed.
No caucus was held in the Sixth be-
cause the representative of the precinct
will not be known until after the gen

In at least the First and Fourth ward
caucuses the union labor element ex-
erted considerable control, If not an
absolute one. In the First Chairman
Henry was turned out cold, and fail
ed to receive but three votes for dele
gate to the county convention In those
two delegations it seemed not so much
the desire TO put others In. as to boost
Henry out. This sentiment was freely
expressed by a number OF laboring
men after the caucuses were over In
this. as we'll as the other wards, the

for a week, had things cut and dried.
