MECHANICS LIEN ASKED.

w. D. Faus Brings An Action Against
the Illinois Central Railway.
Webster City, Sept. 15.-A mechah-
les lien in favor of w. D. Faus has
been filed in the office of the county
clerk, against the Illinois Central rail-
road. The property covered by the
lien is the viaduct at the Bossert eros
sing and the piers and abutments OF
the east bridge over the Boone river.
The filing of the lien came about over
difference of s1,569.3S in the amount
charged by w. d. Faus for the work,
and the amount as allowed by the COM
pany.
Mr.. Faus has done a great deal of
cement work for the Illinois Central
railroad about this city and Cedar
Falls. At the latter place last year
he did in the neighborhood of $4,000
worth of this sort of work. The cons
tract between the railroad company
and Mr.. Faus for the work in this city
was entered into with G. III. Scribner,
Jr., for the railroad. After the com>
pletion Of the job, Mr.. Scribner meas
ured the number of cubic feet in the
work for the company. The difference
between the figures Of Mr.. Scribner
and Mr.. Faus is the cause of the lien
being filed. Mr.. Faus claims that the
job figured $17,S4T9S, while the COM
pany claims that it figures but $16,27S.-

BEAUTIFUL ISLANDS WITH
NO BAD PEOPLE IN THEM.

Away from the ordinary track of
ships and blessed with splendid cli-'
mate are the Cocos- Keeling islands In
the Straits archipelago. Their history
is as strange and romantic as their>
present life is curious and peaceful.
In 1925 a Scotch sailor named Ross
landed. and, seeing that the isles weres
very good, he took possession and set
tied there with his family. The natives
were gentle and teachable, so that Ross
had no difficulty in making himself
their ruler. In 1851 he hoisted the Brit
ish flag as precaution against the
visit of a wandering French n-Ot-
war, and six years later the isles were
formally annexed by the British gov
eminent. With rare justice, kindness
and wisdom Ross devoted himself to
governing the people over whom ne
had so quantity established himself as.
king. and at his death he bequeathed
his mission of government and proprie-
torship Of the Cocos- Keeling to his son.
The present ruler Of the islands. J. =.
CIunies Ross, is the third in success
sion. IIe was studying engineering at
Glasgow when his fathers death calico
him to the ru1ership fifteen years ago.
Abandoning his European ambitions, ne
settled in his kingdom, married Co
cos wife and devoted his life to the
welfare Of the natives, who are mis-
children rather than subjects. The
work of the Rosses in thus ordering
these East Indian islands forms las
cinatint, story, and the Cocos-keeling
group though generally unknown, Is
perhaps the most picturesque in the
British empire. The little horseshoe
shaped cluster Of islands, three days
steamirg south of Java, are blessed
with a perfect climate, luxuriant soil,
and man here is seen at his very best.
The Inhabitants number about 600. OF
whom 400 are Cocos born and the re-
mainder cody laborers from Java. Un-s
der the rule of the ROSES, the only
white residents, schools have been es-
tablished, and all the islanders are well
educated, the schoolmaster in chief be-
ing A. Ross a master Of arts OF Glas-
gov university. Every male Is also
trained to work in brass, iron and wood
and is skilled artisan. Every CocoS
girl similarly serves a term Of appren-
ticeship in Cunies Ross house, learn
ing sewing, cooking and the whole
round of domestic art under the tuition
of his wife. Formerly the Cocos par
ents used to arrange their children'Ss
marriages, but under the new order
each man and woman is free agent
and chooses a partner according t.
European usage. Marriages are cele-
brated according to the Mohammedan
law, but polygamy is prohibited, and

Mill Company at Cedar Falls Will be
Compelled to Act.
Special to Times Republican.
Cedar Falls, Sept. 15.-W "A. Dusahe'
president Of the Waterloo and Cedar
Falls Mill Company has been served
with original notices by Deputy Game
Warden David Omen that III f1shWay is
not constructed by the company in the
dam at this place and at Waterloo
within sixty days, the state will cause
the work to be done and the expense
be charged UP to the property of
mill company. The notice is ac-
.on1panied by minute directions for the
construction of the fishways. and the
deputy warden says the state means
business.
The office Of the state fish and game
warden some time ago gave notice to
the company that they should 'mmed-
lately put fishways to the dams here
and at Waterloo to conform with the
of the law, but for some
reason the work was not performed.
And now the state appears to be in
earnest in forcing a compliance with
the plain provisions of the law.

children. only they are so careless they
do not properly cultivate this precious
gift. E;ut the little boy in England had
another talent not at all common. SO
soon as he was old enough to use
pair of scissors he began cutting out
OF paper the animals and things he
saw. Horses, dogs, deer and even peo-
pie We're shaped by him in this way
rudely at first, then more and more ac-
curately, till they looked as natural as
if an artist had painted them. Just
give that boy an old pile of newspapers
and pair of scissors, and he made no
body any trouble and got into no mis-
chief.
When he became older he got black
paper and cut his pictures out of that,

ettes In France in the year 1859 the
king had minister Of finance whose
name was Etienne de Silhouette. NJ
Silhouette used to amuse himself by
covering the walls of his rooms with
outline pictures, which he afterward
filled in with a black color to make
them look like shadows. Ever since
then black outline picture has been
called silhouette.
The English boy never learned to
draw paint or model. His delight was
just in cutting out pictures with his
scissors, and after he used the black
paper his pictures attracted attention
because they were so artistic. When
he had grown to be a man he became a
soldier. He was Captain Tharp of the
British army and went to India, where
he remained q number of years. In
India the boy who had made paper
cut outs was in his glory. There he
beheld real tigers and leopards and ele-
phants and monkeys and hippopota-
muses., and snakes and wild goats and
strange, beautiful birds-you could not
name half of the new kinds of crea-
lures he saw. He studied them and re-
membered them. according to the old
habit of his boyhood

Breach of Promise Suit Against
the Millionaire Lumberman
Is Sensational
HARD BLOW TO THE DEFENSE
Court Rules Out All Testimony Re-
fleeing on the Character of the
Plaintiff, Which Leaves Little Ground
for the Defense to Stand Upon =
More Letters Read.

Tuluth, Mimi, Sept. 16.-Great holes
We're torn in the line of defense at the
Ham Potter breach of promise trial
yesterday, when at the behest of Attor-
ney HOLSTER Judge Ensign excluded
all testimony toucl ing on the charact-
CT of Miss Ham 1T was a staggering
blow TO the Potter side of the arg l.
ment, as the Geferse had been built
along the conten tion that the plaintiff
was woman Of immoral character AMI
that under the rcumstances Potter
should not be required to fulfill his oft
repeated vows.
The ruling came. when the defe sc
put it's first witness OH the stand, w. *.
Delor,n.er, an aged liveryman from
Dubuque He was expected to prove
that Miss Ham was much older than
she admitted, that her reputation was
very bad, that the house she lived in
had bad name and at her solicitation
men had been sent to her house. Prac-
tically none Of this was admitted and
the testimony which he did give fell flat
under fire of cross-examination.
Under the ruling of the court, it was
immaterial whether men called at her
house, as boarders lived there, and the
fact that there were frequent visitors
at the rooms did not prove that the
calls were for improper purposes.
Delorinier's test .mony was to the eff
feet that he had we'd in Dubuque sl:.-
ty two years and that Miss Ham, as a
girl of years VISITED his house in 1S4a.
He said she was married in 1871 to
Fred Barrows, and that the husband
left the city the same day. Concern
ing the charge that she had asked that
men be sent to her home, he said that
the only thing of this nature was the
assertion that if he sent men with bug
gies out to her home, that she and her
sister Kate, would go out riding with
them.
Colonel d. f. Lyons, of Dubuque, who
was formerly Miss Hams attorney,
was put on the stand TO testify as to
the settlement which had been made
with her at the time the former breach
of promise suit was threatened.
Under the rule that it is improper
for an attorney to tell any of the Sc
crets of a person by whom he has been
retained, all of the important portion
of his testimony was excluded.
More letters from Potter to Miss
Ham were introduced during the day,
many of them written during the last
ten years, and they showed great lack
of the old-time warmth of feeling, Miss
