A MAY Pole Dance.

Norris & Rowe, whose new big shows
will exhibit at Marshalltown Saturday,

new novelty for their many hundreds
of juvenile admirers. 1t is nothing more
nor less than a May pole dance execut-
ed by girls and boys on ponies. The
May pole is tastefl,lly decorated and
draped with hundreds of various color
ed ribbons. The children are dressed
in picturesque summer costume and
the intelligent little ponies are gaily
caprionised In and out of the mazes
of the dance go the joyous children and
demure ponies aud all enter heartily
into the festive spirit Of the affair The
whole effect is SO gracefully pleasing as
to win for 1t the enthusiastic plaudits
of the adults as well as the youngsters.
This Is but one Of the many extra now
elites provided for the thousands Of
Norris s. RoWe's admirers.

DISAGREE REGARDING VALUE.
Eneinemen Doubt E'ractieability Of the
Strouso Stoker.

A difference Of opinion exists in tha
minds of several enssinemen of the Cen
trail, who have seen the Strouse stoker
for locomotives, regarding its practice
ability. One Of the appliances has been
attached to engine No. so, which is on
the eastern division. The arrangement
is one built on the plan Of a coal chute,
with one end inserted in the fire box.
Along this chute, operated by a separate
engine OF small power, a stoker, SIM
liar to a diminutive snow plow of the
ordinary sort works back and forth.
To the chute the coal is fed, thru a hop
per, and the backward and forward
motion of the plc'w-like attachment,
shoves it into the fire box and spreads
it as it falls. The tireman's work is to
feed the hopper with coal. The chief
claim made against it Is it's complicated
parts, which, should they become out
of order. would render it useless and

Mr.. Wells Address,

In an address Mr.. John w. Wells re-
ferred to the wonderful development of
the state since the days of the early SET
tiers, and incidentally recounted some
interesting history. In part he said:
In taking a look at the map of Iowa
one is impressed with its regular lines
its rectangular counties, like great
checker board, laid out before you; but
do you know how near hat symmetrical
form came near to being distigured?
One of the first propositions for the
admission of Iowa as a state, placed its
western boundary on north and south
line, running thru about where the city
The people voted this proposition
down, ard it was By the energetic
campaigning of three young men that
this decision was reached. The three
young rnen We're Enoeh w. Eastman,
Frederick ID. Mills and Theodore S.

hamlets and raised their voices in
opposition to the scheme OF these
men, Mills lost his life in the Mexican
war. Mills county WAS named in his
memory Enoeh w Eastman died in
Eldora, nearly twenty years ago. and
Theodore S. Parvin died in Cedar Rap

WAS IT A COMET?
Peculiar and Brilliant Electrical Dis
turbance, Followed by Rapidly Nov
ing Cloud, Late Wednesday Night,
Causes Wonderment.

A peculiar electrical display, or the
fight OF meteor or comet, which pro-
duced the brilliant lighting of the sky
at about 1880 Wednesday night, has
aroused speculation concerning the
cause For several seconds the sky to
the south was so bright with blush
green II :, as to cause the pavement
to reflect the glow. Thru the center Of
this lighted area a line Of brilliant light
was marked.
Fully dozen people in the business
part of the city saw the light. but des-
criptions vary Some describe the CEN
trail line Of light as uneven, such as
might be produced by an electric light
wire, while others claim the line to
have been like that made by comet,
and further supstantiate their belief by
stating that it left behind a trail OF fire
that chung in space for several seconds.
Those who saw it differ as to the di-
rection OF it's flight, some saying from
east to west and others from southeast
to northwest. 1t was seen by residents
in the extreme southern part OF the
city, who say it appeared south Of
them.
Following the display, by probably
not more than ten or fifteen minutes,
a peculiar gray cloud preceded by
chilly breeze, came up from the south
east and passed over rapidly to the
northwest The rapidity Of its coming
and going can be understood when 1t
is known it passed from horizon to
horizon in little more time than the
time required to walk a half block.

DR.. Pye's Address.
Rev. Pye spoke at some length, and
in a happy vein. which kept his aud
fence in continual good nature. His
talk was sprinkled thruout with good
natured anecdotes and amusing stories
in which he poked fun at the old set
tiers. He said in part: The courage
of the old settler is usually appropriate
ed by the men, but l am sure no man
ever settled until woman did it, This
is usually spoken of as a. compliment,
but every housewife will admit that an
egg is a settler and of course stale
egg is an old settler. altho have
known OF people who had too many of
these for their own enjoyment. real
ize that the old settler has not been
estimated at his real worth. He is the

pioneer of the growing states.
His priyations were many. His diet
was restricted to the few and we'll tried
