Hardin County Asking How Ii
Can Make Future Provision
For Enormous Expense
THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT
Auditor Newcomer is Now Preparing
the Statement, Which Includes
Comparison With Previous Years
Matter Of Court Costs Expected to
Surprise Many.
to Tlmes-Repub1lcan.

Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Jan. 2S.-Tbe financial state
ment now being prepared by Auditor
Newcomer will be interesting reading
for tho taxpayers Of the county. The
matter of court costs for the past three
years will undoubtedly surprise many.
For 1902 the entire court costs were
s1o,o15.os; for 1908. $9,02886: for 1904,
$S,025.11. This last year includes the
cost in the Blydenburgh case which 1t
was generally believed would cost the
county $4,000.
AS compared with 1903 the expenses
for 1904 were:
For grand jury, 5000 less.
For coroner, 500 less.
For county fund, $4,000 les.
For bridge fund, $4,000 less.
For road fund, $4,000 less.
The big and ever increa sing expense
is the matter of caring for the insane
wards in the asylums. For 1909 the
county paid for caring for her insane
wards, s6,374.46: for 1903, $7,l27; and
for 1904, $S,30744.
Hardin county now has sixty in
mates in the asylums, an average Of
four from each township in the coun-
ty. The number increases faster than
it diminishes. IL every county in the
state averaged an equal number there
would be 5000 to be cared for or 1000
to each OF the three asylums.
The question naturally suggests this
question: What will be the method
of providing for this enormous expense

The boys had succeeded in removing

not happen to catch them in the act

YOUNG MEN SCARCE
Some of the Young Ladies' of Hampton
Seek to Remedy Unfortunate Sltua-
ton by Attiring Themselves in Male
Clothing and Acting as Escorts at
Party,

Special to Times Republican.
Hampton, Jan. 2s.-The Whist Club
OF this city, social organization COM
posed Of about twenty of the
prominent young ladies OF this city,
held a very unique entertainment last
Thursday evening. Owing to the
scarcity of young men, one-half of the
young ladies attired themselves in
mems clothing and escorted the other
half to their regular card party. One
of the features of the party was a
mock marriage ceremony, which WAS
performed, one Of the young lady men
acting as the parson.
These young ladies claim that the
shortage of eligible young men in
Hampton demands that they take the
part themselves. They say that there
are more young ladies than young men
in Hampton and that they cannot all
find escorts so they have shut the
young men out from their parties and
will hold them behind closed door,, by
themselves.
During the last year the young ladies
here svailed themselves of every OPP
Iortunity and gave leap year parties
and picnics and dances one after an
other saying they would show the
young meE how the entertaining should
be done. Then they hit upon the hap
~ plan OK dressing in their brothers
and fathers clothes and passing as
men. So completely were they chang
ed that one young lady passed down
the street a:tlred in male clothing and
was not recognized by her acquaint-
ances.

A Bold Coyote.

j e. Burkhart, living northwest of Ell
bert five miles, had an exciting experi-
ence with hungry coyote Monday even.
ing. Mr.. Burkhart was at work late in
the evening in his potato cellar when a
coyote, which had been prowling around
all evening, chased his shepherd dog in
to the cellar. Mr.. Burkhart thereupon
closed the cellar door and resumed his
work, when the coyote chased the dog to
the door again, which was forced open.
At this time Mr.. Burkhart picked up a
strong club and with his two dogs gave
battle to the coyote, which was soon dis
patched. Mr.. Burkhart says the coyotes
are more numerous and troublesome this
spring than ever before in his knowledge.
