therefore, AT that uuromantic period
when faiutucss i'm ones womankind is

girl swayed as she stood listening To
the Gospel, turned deadly pale and
clutched nj her brothers arm.

OF Borneo.

strange tribe has just been dis
covered in Borneo by DIR. \. w. Nieu-
wenhuis, the distinguished Dutch ex-
plorer. As he was travelling through
the district of Sarawak he heard from
his guides that at Il little distance
there was a mountain tribe which no
European or America had ever visit
ed. and straightway he went thither
and in a day or two found himself at
the headquarters of these unknown
aborigines. At once he saw that they
differed from all other natives of
Borneo, and ne spent some weeks in
aeqnainting himself with their curl
Gus customs and also in studying
their countrs. which is entirely IN
known to foreign travellers. In this
way he accumulated mass of new
material. which he intends to give tt
the world at an early date in the
form of a book

which he returned to Europe. where
he at once obtained an appointment
as director of the Botanical garden
at Buitenzorg. In 1899 he went again
to Borneo, intending TO thoroughly
explore the inferior of the country

Louis Avery, of Des Moines, is eX-
pected in the city today and will be
the guest of the Blackburn home over

John Sharp and wife and sister-in-
law, of Lovilia, were guests of the

this week. Mr.. Nnarp is just back
from visit to the home of his mother
in Georgia.
John Barquette, chef of the Hotel
Downing, who has been off duty for
the past two weeks on account or
rheumatism, is able to be around
again. He will go to Galesburg Mon
day for short visit at his old home
before returning to work. Z
The Maple Leaf club met Thursday
evening at the home of Miss Luella

idly and the members are very much
interested. The meeting next Thurs
day evening will be at the home OF
Mrs. John Williams.
The doc" Williams who was found
dead in bed at Buxton one day this
| week, was not the DR.. Williams who
came into prominence during the tria

other person entirely. He was an ole
man who treated corns and peddlet
preparations of his own make, but
was in no sense a professional man
| Attorney G. II. Wocdson argued the
motion for a new trial in the Fielding
case Friday afternoon, and presented
some strong reasons why the defend
ant should have a new trial. HI
dwelt especially on the misconduct o
the opposing attorneys and made thu
statement that Mahaska county hat
had more cases reversed by the su
preme court on the ground of the mis-
conduct of attorneys than any othe

CREAMERY PLANT
IS NOW ASSURED
SITE SECURED AND WORK OF
BUILDING STARTED.
CAPITAL STOCK is INCREASED
officers Chosen and Enterprise Well
bodybuilding, Grounds and
Equipment Will Be of the
Very Best.

The final arrangements for the es-
tablishment of new and promising
local enterprise were made this
morning when the Oskaloosa Cream
cry Co. purchased site for its new
$4,000 brick building. The location
selected is on the east side of South
Market street, just across the Bur
lington tracks on the site now occu-
pied by the Gottschlich foundry. The
lot has 60-foot frontage on Market
street and tapers back to point
along the railway right-of-way. The
new Hawkeye Overall company's
building will be 20 feet south of the
creamery line, thus assuring botn
buildings plenty of light and air. The
location is ideal for the purpose, and
the new creamery building added to
the Hawkeye building will make a
wonderful Improvement in that part
of town. The lot was purchased
from John Crookham, who owns all
the property between the railroad
and the creek He will provide a
new location for the foundry just
south of the Hawkeye plant, and put
up more substantial building, thus
insuring still another enterprise for
that neighborhood.
Creamery Company Organized.
/ The Creamery Company has been
organized with the following officers:
Chas. M. Porter, president.
J. w Garner, secretary.
F. B. Shafer, treasurer.
John Metzger, manager.
! Directors-George Kalbach, j. w.
Garner, G. M. Porter, F. l.. Christie,
F. B. Shafer, John Metzger and Phil
Hoffman,.
The other stockholders are Sam
Baldauf, DR.. B. o. Jerrel, H. l.. Spen-
Ger, M. B. Miller, Guy Woodin, and
the Oskalocsa Traction and Light Co.
The paid up capital stock of tAe
new enterprise has been increased to
$4,000 from $1,000, as was originally
intended, and the authorized capital
is 100000 )
Work Will Begin at Once.
Work on the new building will be
begun at once, and pushed to COM
pletion. Some of the brick was de-
livered on the ground this morning.
The building will be of Oskaloosa
brick, 30x50 feet, will be equipped
with all the latest machinery and
will be a model plant in every par
ticular. Mr.. Miller, who has the con-
tract, is an expert builder, and having
stock in the company himself will
see that everything is done right
The success of the enterprise is due
to the efforts of Harry O'Neill, who
launched and succeeded in financing
the deal. Such institutions are very
successful elsewhere, and the Oska
loosa Creamery Co. bids fair to be an
important factor in the industrial cir
cles of the city.
