THE OFFICIAL STANDINGS.
President Norton Issues Official Fig
ures - Boone Placed Third.

The Times-Republican received this
morning from President Norton the Of
fetal standings Of the clubs of the Iowa
State League at the close of the sea-
son, and In, the case of five of the clubs
the figures differ from those published
in this paper In Tuesday, the day fol-
lowing the seasons close. While the
differences are immaterial I'm the cases
Of most Of the clubs, they are impor-
tant in regard to Oskaloosa and Boone,
as Mr.. Norton puts the latter in third
and Oskaloosa In fourth, whine, as run
in the T.-R, Oskaloosa was third and
Boone fourth. In the case of Marshall
town Mr.. Norton has credited one less
game won and one more game lost,
which lowers the percentage nine
points below the IRIS figures. 1T
has been the experience of the T.-R.,
however, that Mr.. Norton's Official
figures of the standings of the clubs
are not always to be relied upon. Both
this season and last IA they were
furnished on request by Mr.. Norton,
and both times he acknowledged errors
when they were pointed out to him.
Mr.. Norton may be correct and the t.
r. man, who has kept a record Of the
games and figured the averages from
day to day may be wrong, but the lat
ter will "have to be shown" Mr.. Nor
toms figures are as follows.

Searchlight Club of the Railroad Y. NJ.
C. A. one of the most notable and VAL
liable series Of gatherings to be held
in this city this winter. From solid
worth the series of twelve lectures Will
far surpass the entertainment course,
and, unless the plans of the executive
committee fail to materialize, the ar
ray of talent will be the most brilliant
ever assembled on one program in this
city before.
The prospective speakers, one or
two of whom have already been seclir-
ed, include two governors Of western
states, q cabinet officer, a noted Iowa d.
vine and DR.. T.. A. Steiner. Until a pro-
gram Is made up Secretary Fellingham
refuses to give out the speakers names.
With such a rich prospective feast tho
membership is due to be larger than
the associations quarters can accom-

the series of lectures begins On Tues
day, October II, and the others during
the fall and winter come on the follow
ing dates: October 81, November IA
and 2s. December IL, January 16 and
80, February 6 and 20, and March 6 and

| LaFollette will be the speaker, will
come in April, but the date has not yet
been fixed.
Each lecture will be preceded by
supper at $3.50 O'clock by the Ladies'
Auxiliary on the gymnasium floor. The
hour from z o'clock until 8 o'clock,
when the lectures begin, will be one
Of %sociability, and for the classes, such
as Superintendent Coffeen's Bible class,
to meet. The lectures will be in the
auditorium, as usual. To those who
hold sustaining membership tickets
the lectures will be free. To others vt
| will be $3.50 for the course, exclusive
| of the suppers, for which a charge OF
80 for single meals will be made, and
for the entire number, eleven, twenty
| five cents the meal. The last one, the

elaborate affair. for which 80 cents a
plate will be the charge.

Adulteration
Of Foods
"a Practice That Cannot be Too Strong
ly Condemned - Adequate Laws
Should be Passed at Once.

The people of the United States GER
tainly have a right TO demand pure
food laws of the most rigid character
and. they should be enforced without
fear or favor. Adulteration and sub
stitutions are not alone dangerous, but
positively dishonest and should be
brought to an end.
Many physicians ascribe the great
prevalence of dyspepsia, constipation
and other arrangements ofthe digestive
tract to impure or improper food.
Good, plain, wholesome food is the
best, of course, always.
No food that is adulterated or a sub
stitute should be sold except for exact
~ what it Is. The Malta-Vita Pure Fool
Go. offers to the public the breakfast
food that is not only the most delicious
you ever tasted, but it is an absolutely
pure grain product. No foreign sub
stance is used to sweeten it. 1t is
made OF the best wheat grown. treated
with barley malt which, acting upon
Che gelatinized starch Of the wheat,
turns into Maltese or Malt Sugar,
which gives 1t that delicate, delicious
sweetness that all Malta-Vita users
miss when they try any other breakfast
nASOoE dtId SAbGIt
eweetened breakfast foods cannot re-,
place 1t.
The great value of Maltese as a nu-l
tritive substance cannot be exaggerat-i
ed. In the living organism 1t is trans
formed into assimilable sugar more
rapidly than saccharose or cane SUI,
gar. 1t is very easy to digest and, hav-l
Ing not SO sweet ri taste as came sugar,
II can be taken in much greater guam,
titles than the latter.
"Malta-Vita" Is no meaningless coin
ed word; it stands for its literal trans
1ation from the Latin and means ex-
actly what 1t says-""Malt Life The
original phrase "For' the blood Isl the.
life'' is the starting point and final win,
ming post Of. Malta-Vita, which con-
tains a considerable percentage of
Maltese, a natural sweetening agent
easily digestible and readily assimil-
ated by the human economy, forming
rich healthy blood.
Malta-vita is appetizing In the morn
ing, at noon and at night. 1t puts the
tingle of new life into sluggish blood,
builds up bone and muscle, refreshes
the brain and nerves.
And Malta-Vita is so good to eat!
One dish Of it, with a little cream or
fruit, will start the day just right for
You. It is the perfect food for child
rem and grown folks.
Malta vita-so delicious that 1t melts
IN the mouth, SO crisp, so refreshing, so
satisfying-is 10 cents now at all gro
GERS. Same high quality, same big
package as when sold for 10 cents.

WAS HE RUN OUT7
Enemies Of Phenomenal kraus circu-
late False Stories in MarshaIItown
and Chief Of Police Of Clinton An
swers One Lady's Letter In No In
certain Way,

sWers One Lady's Letter In NO IN
certain Way.
The enemies Of Phenomenal Kraus
and the Great Anselme in Marshall
town have been circulating false and
misleading stories about them. They
have told on the streets caused to
be generally circulated a story to the
effect that Phenomenal Kraus and the
Hot Springs Doctors were run out of
Clinton. Mrs. Clara Pope, I'll North
Center street, took occasion to try ana
verify these false stories and wrote as
follows to the chief of police of CLIFTON:
Marshalltown, Iowa, Sept. 10, 1905
Dear Sir: Will you please answer
these questions for the cause of suffer-
ing humanity: Did the Hot Springs
Medicine Company, Phenomenal kraus
and the Great Anselme, as they call
themselves visit your town, and II so,
did they do any good for the people?
1t is being talked here now that they
were run out your town. Is this true?
Enclosed find stamp for reply. Won't
you please be prompt? Address Mrs.
Clara Pope, Ill North Center street,
Marshalltown, Iowa.
Below is given the answer from the
chief of police who took the pains to
send a copy to Phenomenal kraus:
Clinton, Iowa, Sept. 13, 1905.-Mrs.
Clara Pope, M%arshalltown, Iowa. Dear
Madam: Phenomenal Kraus and the
Great Anselme were here five weeks.
He established an institute here; has
leased building for five years, paid one
year in advance; has a staff of doc
tors in charge and they are over run
with business.
There were thousands of people in
this city and vicinity who were treat
ed by his specialists Of Hot Springs
doctors, and used his Hot Springs
remedies. With the exception OF two
cases / have heard Of no N COM
planning or denying that they were not
benefited. One case was of O. lady
who purchased a bottle of the oil for
a compound fracture for her mothers
arm or limb; and the other was a
mar 73 or "a years of age who was
deaf and was treated; he claimed that
he was not benefited and wanted
Kraus to pay him $1,000 to say that he
was benefited.
He was not run out of this town.
When he first came here he obtained
a license for his shows for four weeks,
at TIL expiration OF which time he re-
newed 1t for another period. He did
everything he promised to do here In
the way Of business. Yours very tru-
ly, o. H. Rundgren, chief Of police.
The real facts about the Clinton in
stitute are that there is not room
enough in the institute to accommodate
all of the patients. Neither can Phe-
nomenal Kraus get enough master
specialists to care for all Of the peo-
pie. dit.

Articles OF incorporation for the
,Marshalltown. Buggy Company, capt.
talized at s150,000, are being drawn UP
by the lawyers today; Mr.. w. o. AL
len has, sent for the men who are to
be associated with him In the factory
here; they will arrive next week and
the buggy factory will begin operation
by October /, and be in full operation
secured and the machinery overhauled.
Yesterdays work by committees re-
suited in subscriptions for 1870 shares.
amounting to $50, 900 of the stock, and
it was found necessary to call off the
canvass as, Mr.. Allen wants at least
fifty shares for distribution among the
workmen who accept permanent en-
yployment with the company. A few
signed by their w request today. BY
the time the factory can be fully
equipped for operation more than 100
men will be on the pay roll.
Mr.. b. w. Sinclair arrived home
from Fostoria this morning, and re-
ports hat he not only found every
thing to be true as represented by Mr.!
Allen, but that the people Of Fostoria
had given the Aliens a recommendation
far beyond anything Mr.. Sinclair had
ever expected to receive.
He began early in the morning to call
on every merchant on both sides of the
street and without an exception the
answer was They are money makers;"
.'They are square and honest" Even
the two competing banks replied,
''They are money makers, but we don't
know much about the extent of their
business, because it all goes thru their
own bank" Marshalltown banks have
already received favorable reports from
the credit rating companies.
Mr.. Z. w. Allen, the brother, is the
banker He began twelve years. ago
with O. w. Allen in the buggy fac
tory at Fostoria, which the two now,
own. Five years ago he went into the
banking business. and the two are
the largest stockholders IN the bank.
In five years the banks statement
shows a growth from deposits of $685.
900 to s6s2,oOo.
When Mr.. Sinclair returned this morn
ing he said: Boys, they are all right"
and he promptly signed for a share Of
the stock. So far as he could learn,
and he tried to ask everybody, the AL
lens had never taken advantage Of
anybody who ever invested with them.
Mr.. W. o. Allen said today: Il have
wired for Mr.. w. A. Tuttle to come.
He will be the manager of this factory
and live here. He will put in $4,000
or 100000. He is a man about 80
years old, schooled in the buggy BUSH
ness all his life. and is now working
on a salary as a salesman twice what
we will pay him here" Mr.. j.. w.
Nichols, another exceptional salesman,
of twelve years experience, will move
here Immediately, go or the road for
the factory, and invest in the COM
pany. Two department superintend-
ents have already been engaged who
will take stock as well as positions
with the company. Ray East, former
ly OF M%arshalltown, but for the past
six months in Mr.. Aliens employ as
a salesman, will return and take a po-
sition as bookkeeper. A secretary
and treasurer has not vet been engag-
ed, but Mr.. Allen knows of the man he
very soon. These men are all expected
to arrive next week.
