Mrs. W. Il. Klemme went to Cresco

| Mrs. w. Fl. Klemme went to Cresco
yesterday to visit friends. 80. Ada
Prann was down from Cresco last
week visiting her cousin, Miss Alice
Prann. Andrew Smith and family,
of Cresco, were visiting at Geo. Brink
mans last Sunday. The occasions
are indeed, when old acquaintances
and friends meet to celebrate golden
wedding. On Monday, July 18th, Mr..
and Mrs. T. S. Blackburn celebrated
their golden wedding anniversary, as
sisted by their children, most of their
grand children and two great grand
children. The house was beautifully
decorated with ferns and cut flowers,
white and yellow predominating.
Dinner was served on tables placed
under trees on the lawn at which
thirty-one members of the family
were seated. Numerous presents were
presented by the family and congrat-
ulations and flowers were sent In by
friends. Altogether the occasion was
one to be remembered by all present,
and the wish of their many friends
is that the remaining days OF their
life may be filled with pappiness.
Among those from a distance that
were here to attend the golden we'd
ding of Z. S. Blackburn and wife were:
James Blackburn and wife and son,
Ray, of Royal, Neb., Mrs. E. Fl. Jones
aud son, OF Weyauwega, Wis, E. J.
MoQuatters, wife and children, of
Northwood, Ia, Mrs. L. @. Schorr, of
White Rock, S. De-. ole Fl. Rorum,
who was employed on the farm of @.
.. Bleckeberg in Madison township,
died this week Monday from extreme
heat He had been out in the field
and helped put on one load of hay,
and it being SO warm they decided
not to load any more hay until in the
afternoon. While the horses were
being put away, Mr. Rorum went to
feed the pigs and while doing so drop
ped to the ground, death resulting
few minutes after he was found. Mr..
Rorum was called at dinner time, but
when he did not come in right away
nothing unusual was thought Of as he
was In the habit of finishing his work
before he came to meals, so he was
not discovered until after dinner.
Medical aid was summoned at once,
but he was dead within few minutes
after he had been found stricken with
the heat He has been resident OF
this county two or three years and
had taken out naturalization papers.
The funeral was held from the Madi,
son church and interment was in the
church cemetery. Ridgeway Review

The public creamery at Sioux City
is spreading tuberculosis among hogs
The farmers bring In milk from herds
of cattle afflicted with tuberculosis.
The cream is separated from the milk
and then the SKINNED milk. is sent
back to the farms and feed to the
hogs. The disease is SO prevalent that
three per cent of the hogs are con-
demned after slaughtering. This does
not include the hogs culled out by
the farmer, stock buyer, or packer.
DIR. johnson, chief of the Sioux CITY
bureau of animal industry, says his
bureau at present can not inspect all
the dairy herds. He hoped that in
the near future all dairies will come
under government inspection. This
seems to be required. The govern
ment inspects animals offered for sale
at the stock yards and condemns the
diseased. The inspection of dairies
is more important matter because the
milk is consumed by the human fami-
ly as it comes from the dairy and
without boiling, whereas the meat is
cooked before eaten. n.-Dubuque Times

Sheriff Campbell had a as mile chase

telephoned in the forenoon that a
man was wanted for stealing horse
at Lamont, south of Dubuque. The
man and horse were stopped south Of
Cresco by one of the Baker boys and
Will Weist, who had heard of the
affair and who had suspicion that
the man was the one wanted. They
questioned him so closely that he
weakened and "ducked," leaving the
horse, a fine colt. The Sheriff round
ed up man who tailed closely with
the description given by Baker and

was not the man, and he was released.

Saturday evening, considerable
excitement was caused by the report
that the east bound passenger had
run into car Of brick and wrecked it
and had damaged the passenger
engine considerably. 1t seems that
the freight was switching in the

the brick yard switch and run it on
to the main line before and in trans

track the car of brick and one other
car were by some accident lett on the

recovery of S400 has been filed in city

EoeItn, it being an action brought on the
ground shat the defendant had collected
bills placed in his hands and lad never

DeRoehn left the city suddenly. several
weeks ago before body writ could be
served upon him and nothing has since
been heard from him. He had an Office
in the Strong and conducted general
collecting agency, getting bills from
many merchants. Crosby Bros. placed
1t large amount in mis- hands and it is
claimed that they nave evidence that he
collected about $500 which he failed to
turn over.
When it was discovered that he had
left the city an attachment was placed
ON what little office property he had.
Owing to the fact that he could not be
notified that the case was pending con-
tinuance was taken for 30 days. The
attorneys for Crosby Bros. are Cowles

ed Saturday, Attorney Moulton was told
that DeRoehn had been in Boston since

Administration Fears Re-
organization Panama Force
MAY BE NECESSARY.
Great Secrecy Observed = Fundamental
Differences Said to Exist Be-
tween Shonts and
Wallace.


Washington, June 27.-While great
secrecy is maintained as to the actual
conditions in isthmian canal affairs, as
developed at the Taft-Shonts- Wallace
conference in New York, there Is cabinet
authority for the statement that the
administration is much worried over the
prospect OF grave complications, per-
haps new reorganization of the execu-
tive force and other farreaching diff
culties.
More and more credence is being given
here to the stories OF fundamental differ
ences between Chief Engineer Wallace
and President Shonts Of the canal com
mission. Letters, which have reached
here from Americans on the isthmus
and which came by the same boat that
brought Mr.. Wallace, declare that Amer
leans there are full of confidence in Wal
lace, but not in the commission as q
whole.
They believe that if Wallace retires
the whole canal project will be threat.
ened, serious delays win certainly fol-
low, and efforts viii be made to con-
vince the country that a mistake was
made in turning from Nicaragua TO the
Panama route
