A new INDUSTRY
FOR OSKALO0SA
MODERN CREAMERY PLANT TO
BE ESTABLISHED HERE.
FINE OPENING is PROMISED.
Company Backed BY Harry o'NellI---
Will Start in Modest Way But
viii Meet All the
Demands.
FINE OPENING is PROMISED.

A butter industry is to be added TO
those of oskaloosa, and if the plans
now being worked upon mature, this
city will have a modest, but modern
and progressive creamery, in opera
tion in about ninety days.
Mr.. Miller, representing the West
ern Creamery Company of Omaha, is
in the city, in the interests Of the
proposed plant, and having canvassed
the field is convinced that there is
a fine opening in Oskaloosa for
thoroughly modern butter-making
plant operated upon the most i'm.
proved methods. Mr.. Miller has had
great success in establishing similar
plants throughout the country, and
commendation assures the creamery
for Oskaloosa. Little is being SAID
of the matter by the promoters of the
plant at this time, and few state
ments will be made until the plant is
in successful operation. Mr.. Miller
was induced to come to Oskaloosa by
the efforts of his friend, Harry Z.
O'Neill, of the local Traction & Light
Co. The company will be- financially
interested in the concern.
The plans will mature in a few
days, when the location of the plant
will be decided upon, and the work
Of construction will ne Immediately
undertaken. The building is to be a
brick affair of one story, with cement
floors. 1t will contain the most mod.
ern machinery for making butterand
will adopt the most approved and
scientific methods. The building
will probably be located upon a va.
cant lot just west of the light COM
pany's power house.
- The manufacture will be under the
supervision of Mr.. John Metzger, a
butter'maker of twelve years exper-
ience, who will be financially inter
ested in the company. Mr.. Metzger
has been in the cfyys~i s5itiss q aaHs
with the promoters of the deal md
viii make his home In this city.
The creamery will make no preten-
sions to being big concern, but for
the present will content itself with
being modest little industry, from
which it is hoped to develop, by pro-
gressive methods, an industry which
will amount to considerable among
those Of this city.
The company will pc capitalized for
a modest sum, Mr.. Miller. Mr.. Metz

will be offered to Oskaloosa parties.

SEVERAL LIVES SACRIFICED.
Big Plant of the American Cereal
Company Wrecked by Flames
Fire Started by spontane-
Gus Combustion.

q. Cedar Rapids, March S.-The
American Cereal Company's plant, the
largest of its kind in the world, was
destroyed last night with a loss OF
over $1,500,000. The fire is the di.
rect result of spontaneous combus-
tion which occurred in the hull
grinding room Of one of the eleva-
tors. .~ .... "m.... g. ..... .
Two deaths have been so far re-
ported. Joseph Skvor, an en-
ploye in the plant, was blown
through the side of wall and fell
in the middle of the street dead.
One unknown man was seen to ap-
pear at a window for a moment and
then fell backwards into the raging
flames. Several others are known
to have been in the plant at the
time of the fire, and as yet they
are missing.
The buildings were within a block
of the central fire station and, al
though they were themselves
equipped with appliances for ex.
tinguishing fires, they were soon be-
yond control Of the fire fighters.
The plant Of the company is con-
structed in the form of a triangle
and extends from B. TO d Avenues,
and from Third to Fourth Streets.
On Fourth Street are located the
main lines Of all the railways enter
ing the city, and as a result, there
is a complete cessation of all rail-
way service,

Strenuous efforts were made to pre-

hour the firemen succeeded fairly
well in keeping the flames confined
to the plant.
The first building to fall was the

went to the ground with a crash
and was burned. Then followed

appear downcast and ravenous. many OF

nese attacked Yenheitun, Alanpu and
Erthtaitzu, and also made four furious
attacks on the village of Iuhuantun
early this morning. On the fourth at

hurricane and drove them out of the
village at the point of the bayonet. A
captured Japanese said they had had
nothing to eat since Sunday, and that
they had been told either to capture the
Russians dinner or starve.
At Erdegou, on the center, a regiment
of chasseurs made night attack, but
the Russians were caught by the jap
anese flank, and many Of them were
killed, 80 being captured. At Bentsia-
putze the Japanese stormed as far as the
wire entanglements, but were repulsed
with great loss. An attack on the east
front early Tuesday morning resulted
In the capture of several Japanese posi-
tions near Oubenepusa, and the seizing
OF two Japanese quick-firing guns. The
japanese made a counter attack, and a
long and desperate struggle ensued, the
Russians capturing third uuick-fire
gun and holding the positions. The
cannonading in the neighborhood Of
Tatchekiao is now increasing In in
tensity. The Japanese apparently have
brought up reenforcements and are at
tempting to crush Gen. Gerngross. The
japanese are bringing up supplies by the
Sinmintin road, and apparently are
using the railroad as a line of cCsnmuni-
cations.

RACING AT FAIR GROUNDS.
Meetings VIII Be Strictly Under Rules
of Western Jockey Club.

st. Louis, April 23.-Secretary Hach-
meister of the st. Lotus Fair association,
as result of the receipt of numerous
letters asking whether horses racing at
American Turf association meetings would
be allowed to keep their st. Louis stake
engagements, made the following state
ment today:
The vaious meetings to be conducted
at the Fair Grounds track will all be
run strictly under the rules of the Wes-
tern Jockey club. AS these rules pro-
hibit the owner of any horse racing at an
unrecognized meeting from taking part in
racing under Western Jockey club rules,
no horses which have thus become dis
qualified will be permitted to start in any
kind of race over the Fair Grounds
track"
Mr.. Hachmeister also calls attention to
the second section of rule "a of the Wes-
tern Jockey clubs CODE which reads:
Amy entry or subscription fee paid in a
stake in respect to a horse which, or
the owner of which is subsequently de-
barred from the privileges of the course
shall not be returned"
This means that owners who have bolted
to the Corrigan association will be held
responsible for all stake liabilities incur
red up to the time of their disqualified
ton and forfeit order issued. These for
freit orders of course can hardly be col
lected unless the delinquents should be
later permitted to return to the fold,
and even IL such action is taken it is as
sumed that the applicant for reinstate-
ment would first have to make good all
such obligations.

Mrs. Eleanor Rawls Reeder is the
woman whom Senator Morgan of Ala
bama brought to public notice by his
story told in the Senate of her enter
the financial troubles of San Domingo.
She had nearly accomplished her ne
gotiation, when, according to the SEN
ator, it was betrayed to the admins
tration, which promptly thwarted 1t
by going into the business on its own
account. The report of her proceed
ing was an extraordinary narrative,
and some of the persons alleged to
have been concerned in it with her
have contradicted, or apparently con-
tradicted, it. Notwithstanding this,
Senator Morgan affirmed his mistaken
confidence in her absolute turth AMI
great ability. Her home is in Marion,
Ala, and she has recently written to
the Standard of that town a letter,
correcting a statement made about
her father, who, she says, was a ply
stefan, and not a teacher. In the
course of the letter she says: II am
not the clever diplomat the world calls
me, but simple, plain, southern girl.

women in the world today who could

Is said of her business success and
talent for high affairs of state is de-
served, she is an extraordinary woman,
and we doubt that there are many
simple plain southern girls who are
her equal in such enterprises.
