The building of whole blocks of fine
new residences in the west part OF
town by retired farmers during sthe
past five wears would indicate that at
least 100 new families had come to
town of this class alone. The direc-
tory shows that 124 travelling men are
living in Marshallltown today and the
presumption is that they have grown
in number. The paved streets, pure
water, unusually extensive sewage sys-
tenn, libraries, hospitals, schools and
all around beauty and pleasure of liv-
ing in Marshalltown has made it the
home of many new citizens. These
same forces will be at work in the
the future. Marshalltown will I'M
doubtedly see the buggy factory start
ed this fall. That will mean eighty
families or 200 more people. Someone
ought to build at least four commodi-
Gus apartment houses for travelling
mems families where the women left
at home alone could be relieved OF
ianitor work and not be isolated as
when in Individual houses. Such build
ings would command high rents and be
quickly taken. Besides they would

endowment of 100000. Let us have
normal school or college.
Again it only requires the invest

City WINS Victory In Supreme
Court Appeal of the Mar
shalltown L., Pa R'y Co.
ABOUT $4,000 is INVOLVED
Company Appealed From the City
Councils Assessment For Paving Ee-
tween and Alongside Street Car
Track on North Third and South
Third Avenue.

The supreme court of Iowa has at
firmed the decision of Judge Caswell
in the case of the Marshalltown Light,
Power g. Railway Company VS.. the
city The decision is of importance,
and affects the paving between the
tracks, and on one foot on either side
of the rails, on both North Third
street and South Third street and
South Third avenue. A little over So
600 is involved on the assessments for
the two streets, and as the West Main
street assessment was never brought
into, court, the decision will likewise
affect that making in all approximate
ly $4,000.
The street railway company's APP
peal was from the special assess ment
of the city council. In the district
court Judge Caswell, at the August,
1908, term, sustained the North Third
street assessment, and at the January
1904, term took similar action on the
South Third avenue assessment. The
assessment for North Third street is
s., $50; that for South Third avenue
So, 700. On West Main street the as
sessment will amount to about $500
Five per cent interest also attaches to
the North Third and South Third ave-
nue. assessments, from 1902 and 1903
respectively.
The appellant is entitled to an appeal
even from the finding of the supreme
court as federal questions involved
would give the street car company the
right to try the case in the United
States supreme court.

Standing of the Clubs.

Getting back to something like their
usual form the locals downed Boone
again yesterday without even as much
as giving them look-tn. One to U
was the final count, with Boone never
really having more than one good
cnance to tally. Again the visitors
aided in their own downfall. A pass
in the fifth to Bruggeman, with stol-
en- base and single few minutes
later, brought in the only tally of the
game.
The many bad breaks of the day be-
fore were entirely lacking, and both
pitchers received keen and snappy
support, altho there was nothing es-
pecially sensational about the session.
Neither team could successfully hit the
others pitcher, and both puttered
| along at a scoreless pace until the
fifth. when Mr.. Sedgwick, the visiting
twirler, emitted the pass to Brugge-
| man. Neither before nor after that
event were the locals ever near to
| counting, so local thanl.fulness must
of necessity be due to Mr.. Sedgwick
for walking the catcher
If Mr. Sedgwick had the locals tied
up, they were in no worse condition
than were the visitors, who proved
| totally unable to solve Mr.. Disch's de-
| livery. Twice they biffed him safe
both times in the second inning. which
totaled their hits. Barring that in

Williams threw low to link, and the
ninth, when Fisher walked, the WISH
tors during the other six rounds never
reached first. Mr.. Disch had the best
Of the pitching when compared with
the other man, for he was hit fewer
times and was steadier.
The visitors chances began to look
up in the second inning. After two
were away, Howard and Painter hit
safe, the former going to third on the
latter's hit. Haller, however, flew out
to Disch and the danger was over.
Only one other chance they had to
score, which was in the ninth. After
Bassy had flied out to Shaub, Fisher
walked and stole second. He took third
on Benson's out in center field. Pen
nington flied out to link, and the in

party unknown, probably crank. and
evidently for malicious purposes.
Train No. 10. a fast eastbound train.
