Mastery magic, as interpreted by
Kellar. the man of mystery and VAL
adon the wizard wonder. which will
hold forth at the Odeon Tuesday, Dec
s. comprises all the intricate and deft
delusions known to modern necrom-
ancy and includes a large number Of
other feats which have never been
seen or attempted before. The program
of these two master magicians includes
some Of the most surprising accom-
plishments and astounding demonstra-
tons of dexterity ever yet attempted
by mortal man and the enumeration of
few Of the most pleasing may not be
amiss In view of the dual Importance
of the engagement and the marvels
that will be performed. The use Of
darkened stages Is disdained and usual
black draperies are conspicuous by
their absence. On clear, open stage
with nothing to conceal in the least
the slightest movement Of anyone
thereon, these Satellites of Satan" as
they have been called, perform with
grace and ease their mystic feats.
From q simple pile OF sand poured
on Il plate Of glass laid on the stage,
beautiful roses grow in luxuriant pro-
fusion and are plucked and presented
to the ladies. Coins strangely ascend
and descend crystal ladder as hidden
and ell sorts Of things are plucked out
of the ambient air. Real oranges are
reared In the presence of the audience
and astral bodies are projected in agi-
tating manner. The masterpiece OF
Kellar is the "Levitation> of Princess
karnac." in which he causes beau
tiful girl to float in the air without
any support OF any kind, while VAL
adon wins applause and wonderment
by making people disappear myster-
iously and concludes his performance
by making himself vanish from the
center of brilliantly lighted stage.

WEBERTAKESPARTNE

Prominent Fuel and Feed Man Sells
Half Interest in His Splendid BUSH
ness to Robert Hedderman-chans
Effective Monday.
An important business change
took place today when Henry Weber
sold an undivided half interest in hts
successful fuel and feed business to
Robert H. Hedderman, the well known
railroad contractor. The interest con-
veyed to Mr.. Heddeman consists Of
half the value Of all the wagons, hors-
es, hay presses, ETC., owned by the
Weber Company and includes the prop
erty at 502 South Center street. The
entire property invoiced $10,Soo and
Mr.. Hedderman paid half that sum, or
$500 for his acquired interest. Be
ginning Monday he will in future be
actively identified with the manage
ment and conduoG' Of the firm which
will hereafter be known as Weber &
Hedderman.
The marvellous increase of the Weber
business has made it's proper manage
ment too great a burden for one man.
The new firm will be in position to do
bigger and better business, serve its
present trade better and take care Of
new customers. Mr.. Hedderman's ad-
vent into the firm does not mean so
much division as an enlargement of
the business.
1t will carry larger supplies of COAL
wood, flour, hay, mill feeds, continue
the same system Of fair dealing and
prompt service, and remain thankful
to old customers and ready for new
ones. Its prices will still be lowest
and its qualities the best. It will still
give customers their choice Of scales
and weigh every order over half ton
on city scales. In fact, the new firm
is out to do business on the same lines
with the old one and do twice as much
of it. Either phone. See them at
500 South Center street or talk with
them about prices. 1t pays.

A Musical Treat offered Public In
"Lew" Dockstader's Minstrels.

"A MUSICAL T0dS Su0t00 ObhN sib
"Lew" Dockstader's Minstrels.
A great many theatrical patrons OF
the city passed by one of the rare treats
Of the year Friday evening. The attrac-
tion was "Lew" Dockstaders minstrels,
in feast of song and comedy that prov
ed one of the delightful evenings of
the season. Comic opera or musical
comedy seldom fails to draw with
Marshalltown audiences, but last even
ing, with more good music than is US
ually offered in comic opera, and
enough comedy to suit the most fas-
tidious in that direction, Lew Dock
stader went begging for house. Mr..
Dockstader has a magnificent product
ion this year. His show is not the
ordinary old-fashioned and sterotyped
minstrel. but a combination of the
elements of the olden days, with min
strelsy up-to-date. In his company of
fifty, all appearing in blackface and
evening attire, are some Of the best
know minstrel men In the country, in
Guiding Carroll Johnson, Neil O'Brien,
Manuel Roman, Bert and Frank
Leighton, William Mcdonald, Billy
Cawley, John King and many others.
The first part is devoted almost entire
ly to artistic solo and chorus work.
with a little comedy interspersed to
l!ven things up. A snap shot Of Dixie
life introducing many members of the
company, is one Of the features OF the
second part, in which some exception
ally clever buck and wing dancing is
shown. Carroll Johnson appears in the
second part in an original sketch, and
Mr.. Dockstader, from his airship, views
Marshalltown. Mr.. Dockstader, after
alighting, appeared in a political mon
ologue that was decidedly clever.

Threatens a Shortage.
COMPANY CALLS FOR CARS
Central Agents Are Notified to Use
Special Effor. to Secure the Release
Of Loaded Cars, That They May Be
Used to Supply the Rapidly Incroas-
ing Demand.

Within the past two or three days
the Increased activity in shipping cir
cles has been marked, and railroad men
say the fall rush Of freight Is on. A
portion of the oats and corn crop is
on the move. and will continue in in
creased volume from now on. The
coal market is liveler and the mines
are clamoring for empty cars to take
care of their output Operating off,
Gals OF the Iowa Central are exerting
every effort to supply the demand, and
agents along the line have been noti-
fed to push the work Of the unloading
cars.
The increase In the amount Of grain
moving is most noticeable, as there has
been but little OF this commodity tran
sported until within the last week. At
almost every station along the Story

probably put on night force at the
beg ginning OF next week.
From the southern end of the line,
the coal mines in the vicinity of Oska-
loosa, Abba, Hooking and Eddyville,
has come big demand for empty box
cars and coal racks, to be loaded with
coal for company and commercial use
along the line of the Central and Min
neapolis & st. Louis.
Orders have been issued from the
headquarters of the operating depart
menl at Oskaloosa to hurry south all
available equipment of this sort. The
furry in the fuel market is accounted
for by the coal wave that has just
passed, and the likelihood of colder
weather IN the near future.
