Street Commissioner Cunning for the
construction of sidewalk in front of the
Jones property on Sherman avenue,
Cunning was ordered to make out sep
arate bill for labor, and the lumber bill
left with the mill company for Collec-
ton.
At the suggestion of Mayor Blowers,
Councilman Early moved that the fire
and water committee be empowered to
offer suitable reward up to $5 to any
team that should be the first to hitch
onto the fire engine and haul it to fire
above the engine house.

Of Councilman Mcdonald thought
that a circular saw could be put to effec-
tive use as fire gong until the city
could raise the money to purchase
something better. "If you have ever
been to a charivari where circular saw
was used, you can realize what a noise
can be made with one," remarked Nc
Donald. Councilman Early thought
such saw could be found at his saw
mill.
Councilman Mayes of the police COM
mittee asked if Marshal Olinger had
made his report for the month, as there
was little matter he wished to have
Strengthened out. G. Z. Cooper, who
was arrested for drunkenness on the
night of November 5, had come to
Mayes during the week, with a com
plant that he had paid the marshal $40
to be kept out of Jail, and understood
that he was to get some of the money
back. Cooper had promised to explain
the matter to the council, and Marshal
Olinger was sent to look the gentleman
up. He returned shortly and reported
the man was not to be found.
Marshal Olinger assured the council
that Cooper had misrepresented the
matter, and that he wished hearing
for Cooper in the recorders court the
next morning. His request was granted.
o. b. Hartley was given the floor
and stated that the calf for which he
had presented bill had been kept in
his barnyard at the request of the mar.
shal, who had promised time and again
to dispose of him. Mayes added. that
he did not think Hartley should be
blamed altogether in the matter, as the
calf was left there under orders.
Early wanted to know why the calf
wasn't killed or turned loose after a
reasonable time, at least before it ate
its head off at So a week. To this Hart
ley replied that it had been retained
over the legal time, and there was moth
ing to do but keep on keeping it, as to
turn it out then laid him liable TO fine.
Marshal Olinger interposed and said
he would see that the matter was
settled.

ONE FARMING RESULT
Some Interesting Figures AS To What
a Farmer, a Renter, Living Near
Busk, Realizes On His investment in
a Year.

Special to Times Republican.
Pocahontas, Oct. 1S.-Here are the
results from one Iowa farm: A farme
near Busk rented 240 acres, for which
he paid $3.50 per acre, or $500. He
raised $3.50 bushels of oats, by meas
ure, weighing 4,400 bushels, one loo
acres, which was sold at $3.50 for 81
500 bushels by weight.
He has a fraction less than 100 acres
of corn which he estimates at 1000
bushels, 5000 Of which he will sell al
rs cents per bushel, $3.50. This Is his
lowest estimate. Also so tons Of hay
for sale at 81 or total of $240. Hired
help cost him $3.50.
He supports a widowed sister who
gets the poultry profits for her wages
keeping up the house expenses. He
told me her wages or her net cash bal
ance is very close to $3.50 during the
year.
Counting his wages at $3.50, which Is
the highest he ever received during
the time when he worked as a hired
hand, we still have a balance Of ST.
$40. His investment is $1,000 to $1,000
in horses and machinery. He has kept
out twenty tons of hay, $50; LOCO
bushels of corn, $3.50; 800 bushels OF
oats. 5000; total, $3.50.
This should have been figured In,
but he did not consider that clear as
he had to have it for feed, nor has he
figured in his hogs and calves as he
is not going to sell any.

He Was Not Apprised Of the Plans Of
the First Presbyterian Church's
Trustees, His Colleagues, and Joined
With Residents in That Vicinity in
Protesting Its Lease to Undertaken.

Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, Oct. 18.-Aroused by the
impending decrease in the price OF
property in the vicinity of the First
Presbyterian church, on account of the
lease of the edifce to an undertaken
for morgue purposes, syndicate,
whose members were influential and
leading citizens, among them Senator
William B. Allison purchased the
piece at handsome figure.
After the Presbyterians had united
in this city the First church was va

the residence district, where property
brings a good price. The building is
south of the Stout residence. When
1t was announced that an undertaken

hold family councils. general gossiping
was tnGulged In, and finally they agreed
on plan to buy the building, thereby
preventing the handler Of the dead"

but finally advanced to the other
ohurchmen and saidi
II am grieved that you should adopt
such e. measure, that would hurt me

contributions"
The old senator allied himself with
the neighbors and the syndicate swept
down upon the trustees and forced a
sale, altho the price was $4,000.
The trouble had thrown the best
families into turmoil and it was evi.
dent that there would be plenty Of
excitement, but the amicable settle
ment allayed all fears.

LEFT CONGRESS FOR MINISTRY.
Varied Experience Of Rev. Il. o. Pratt
Now of Iowa Falls Methodist Church

Now of Iowa Falls Methodist Church.
Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Oet 1s.-Rsv. H. o. Pratt.
who was, by the recent Upper Iowa
Conference, held at Davenport, sent as
pastor of the M. e. church at Iowa
Falls for the ensuing year, has had
varied experience. In 1872 Mr.. Pratt
lived at Charles City and was nomln-
ated and elected by the republicans as
congressman from the then Fourth dis
trict, and served in the 43d and 44th
congresses. 1t was during the second
term that he was converted and he re-
signed his position and entered a theo-
logical school to study for the ministry.
Since then he has held some of the
best charges in the state, has served as
presiding elder, and altho now some
what advanced in years, is considered
one of the ablest ministers of the
Methodist denominations in the state.
When a minister goes wrong the fact
is heralded over the country and when
a congressman resigns a $4,000 posi-
ton to enter a profession which in a
pecuniary sense often means a mere
living, it should be known over the
wide world. Mr.. Pratt was succeeded
in congress by Hon. N. c. Deering and
he by Capt. A. j. Holmes. During Mr..
behring's administration the state was
redistricted and Hardin county be-
came a part of the Tenth distrdct
Later on it was again redistricted and
this county was placid in the Third or
monkey wrench district.
