Father Started Sons in Dairying In

Story of How They Cleared Over
$1,000 Within a Year Japanese
Papers Request.

| Special to Times Republica
Webster City. March S.--Considerable
attention was attracted last fall by the
phenomenal good fortune OF Leo and
Leslie Hughes, sons of George W.
Hughes. formerly of this city. but now
of Cedar Falls, having moved recent
ly to the latter place from Sioux City.
The boys are 13 and IA years old re-
spectively. To teach them thrift and
economy their father gave then a
start in dairying by giving them a COW.
They cared for the cow, sold milk, fl
Inally bought another animal. then a pig,
etc, until within a year, with the start
OF nothing but the one cow they cleared
something over one thousand dollars.
From the daily papers the story reach
ed the American Boy and just recently
was printed in magazine in Japan
together with fine half tone cuts of
the boys. This paper is called the
"Shonan."
In letter accompanying the paper,
written Mr.. Hughes by the editor, the
boys are asked to write a few lines of
sympathy for the Japanese in their
struggle with the Russians The paper
is peculiar in construction as the stories
apparently begin at the bottom of the
last page and read up and backward
to the front.

Persons with weak heart get out OF

Tana, March s.--A man giving the
name of William Elliott, came to Tama
yesterday morning March y and pu;
up at the Midland hotel paying a
weeks board in advance, saying that he
was here to look at land.
Finding time heavy on his hands he
went to the Tama Hardware Company
and rented a double ba.rreled shot gun
and went hunting in the afternoon.
In some unaccountable way the gun
was accidentally discharged and he
was seriously injured. He managed to
get to Mr.. John Hegardt's slaughter
house where Mr.. John Schaller and
John Hegardt Jr., were working. They
Immediately brought him to town and
he is now at the Midland hotel under
care of Drs. Thompson and Rowland.
He is doing as we'll as could be expect
ed under the circumstances and will
probably recover, though his case is
serious

condition at present to give any infor-
nation as to his residence or people.
The gun Mr.. Elliott rented was a
double barreled. 12-gage hammer gun.
The only way he could have received
the accident was by going thru wire
fence and pulling the gun after him
when something caught the hammer,
-. a
first class gun and above the average
used for renting purposes. The wound
is in the lower part of the pubic region.

Centerville.
An attempt was made Friday to
pump out the water from the new well
at the waterworks plant in order to test
the evidences of gas found there but
after pumping several hours, it was
found that the water had been low
cred but five feet and the effort was
abandoned, for the time at least. Drill
ing was again commenced and at noon
Saturday the depth of over 100 feet in
the Trenton sandstone had been reach
ed. 1t is estimated that the Trenton
sandstone is about two hundred feet
thick and that after going thru it into
the next strata it will be impossible
to ever test the we'll for gas, as the
flow of water will be too great to ever
pump 1t out. The Trenton stone is the
gas bearing stone and contains no
water.

A compromise has been effected be-
tween the patrons of the rural tele-

been averted. The patrons of the

in this city. numbering nearly $50,
own their lines and for the past year
have been paying the Missouri Valley
company so cents per month each for
use Of the central exchange and the
repairing of their lines inside the cor
poratson only. A meeting of the pa
irons of each of the twenty-seven lines
was called and they decided that they
would offer the telephone company 40
cents per month rental on one-year
contract and if not accepted to put In
an exchange of their own The tele-
phone company finally agreed to ac-
cept the new rate If a contract would
be made for term of five years.
