Or. Myers.Townsend Addresses Meet
ing on "Parental Responsibility"
At the meeting Of the w. G. T. u.
held yesterday afternoon with Mrs. G.
8. Steward, Dr. Myers Townsend read
an interesting paper on Parental Res
possibility" or Scientific Heredity."
She said that true parenthood was an
art, the highest art, that it was Q, ques-
tlon Of mental endowment, rather than
environment, which determined the
character of children, and that parents
could make their children what they
would by endowing them with the re-
quired qualities or characteristics; that
It was time the fallacious idea that
the mind of child is as a blank piece
OF paper, on which we can write what
we will, was laid aside. as unworthy
the thought Of thinking men and wom-
EN-; for the mind is not a blank, but
" already indellibly stamped with its
parents characteristics. Parents have
TIN future veal or woe of the country
LARGELY in their own HANDS; they can,
II tfey will, practically eliminate the
many weaknesses of the human race.
DR.. Townsend's paper was listened
to with much interest, and the subject
will be pursued at some future meet
ing.

APPLES WILL BE HIGHER.
New York Crop Light, But Quality
Very Fine,

Very Fine.
Owing to the large crop of fall ap-
pies locally, not much interest has
been taken in winter supplies until
now. The New York crop was fair
size, but the quality Of the fruit is ex-
ceptionally fine both as regards size
and appearance. There are practically
no worms in the New York apples this
wear, but stock from Michigan is bad
ly affected and doubtless will not keep.
The recent severe storms in New York
and The east reduced the supply about
80 per cent and this, together with the
scarcity in Missouri and Arkansas, and
the entire consumption of both early
and late western apples will throw the
entire demand on New York ana
Michigan. AS New York apples are
far better in regard to keeping than
any others, 1t follows that the supply
will not be sufficient, and prices Will
undoubtedly rule higher. We have
people packing New York apples VINO

ENGINEER IS NOT
BLAMED FOR WRECK
Probability That ConductorWill
Have to Serve Time For G.
& N. w. Mishap
zlEcENFus is in SERVICE
Conductor spauldins Had Not Notified
the Engineer That Air on Ono Gar
Had Boon Cut of, Owing to Defec-
tive Brake Rod Investigation
Brings Out This Point.

The probabilities are that Engineer
"Lou" ziegenfus, of Clinton. one Of
the pioneer engineers on the North
western, who was pulling No. IL, the
Chicago special, east bound, a week
ago Saturday afternoon. and ran off
the derail west Of Third street, result
1ng in the ditching of the engine, will
not have to serve time for the accident.
Attic at the time of the wreck Engi-
neer Ziegenfus assumed all RESPONSE
bility, surmising that he had overes-
timated the holding capacity of his
brakes, 1t appears. upon the testimony
at the Investigation that q car had been
cut out at Boone, and the engineer
knew nothing Of 1t.
With this important fact In his favor
It Is thought by Northwestern trainmen
that the engineer will not have to
serve any time, and that the record OF
the mishap will not be marked down
against him. In the forty years Engi-
neer Ziegenfus has been on the road
there has not been so much as a
scratch Of the pen against him. He
has always been very careful, and the
accident was a surprise to all railroad
men who know him and his record.
It seems that on the day Of the wreck
when the train reached Boone, the car
inspectors found defective brake rod,
and reported 1t to the conductor, Frank
Spaulding. The air governing the car
was cut out at Boone, and the conduc-
tor did not inform the engineer that
the train was not solidly connected
with air. 1t is understood that Con-
ductor Spaulding will be the ore to
serve the time for the wreck, and that
his sentence can be expected any day.
Engineer Ziegenfus is on his regular
run, the same as usual, and has not
missed q trip, excepting when he was
in attendance at the investigation. He
passed thru the city Wednesday eve
ming in charge Of the engine pulling
No. s, the Omaha express.

Special Committee Will Canvass for
$500 Additional Subscriptions.
The Oskaloosa papers say that Mar
shalltown citizens are tight wads'
but the committee appointed at the
Odeon Sunday evening evidently thinks
different for at its meeting Wednesday
evening it was unanimously decided TO
make a general canvass of the city
for additional subscriptions.
The Y NJ. c. A. will need between
$1,000 and $500 to clear itself OF an
debt and pay for the furnishing OF the
building and all the extras included.
Exactly $4,000 In subscriptions nave
been raised The contracts for pulla-
Ag and plumbing We're about $lLoVV.

ance, $197. Expense Of bonds, tncluo-
ing interest, 1892. Paving the alley
1925, and finally the mortgage OF $3ooo'
which has stood on the old building
for years, will raise the cost OF the
building and furniture alone to $2b, 4oo,
and with the old mortgage added the
total would reach $28,400.

DO NOT DOSE THE STOMACH.
Hyomei, the Only Guaranteed Cur
for Catarrh.


No one should confOund Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is as far
superior to them all as the diamond Is
more valuable than cheap glass.
Their composition is secret, but Hy-
omei gives its formula to all reputable
physicians and is prescribed by them
generally.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil. famous for its anticeptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making
a pure LIQUID which, when used in the
Hyomei pocket inhaler fills the air
you breathe with germ-ki]ling, dis
ease destroying and healing powers.
that restore health to every part OF
the nose, throat and lungs.
The only way to cure catarrh, and
all other diseases of the respiratory
organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been Sc success
full in treating 90 per cent Of all who
have used it, that Hyomei is now
sold by Mcbride & Will under an abb
solute guarantee to refund the money
in case 1t does not benefit. You run
no risk whatever In buying Hyomei. II
it did not possess unusual powers to
cure, it could not be sold upon this
plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81. and comprises an inhaler, bot
tie of Hyomei and a dropper. The
inhaler will last lifetime, and ad-
ditional bottles Of Hyonlsi can be OBJ
tanned for 80 cents.

RAIN BADLY NEEDED.

Cisterns Turnout tho City Are About
Dry, and Fall Pastures Suffer.
The lack of fall rains is beginning TO
show dts effect on cisterns thruout the

a premium unless a precipitation Of
considerable quantity results. Fall
pastures are also showing the effects
of a lack Of rain, and there promises
to be but little moisture in the ground
by the time winter sets in in earnest.
Since the first Of September there has
been rainfall of only three and one
half inches. One and sixty-one hum
dredths Of this amount fell in Septen1-
Der. and 1.72 in October. In the month
Just closed the precipitation was only
II of an inch, making the total for the
three months even $50.
