Algona, Aug. IA D. Hatch, who
lives about four miles west Of this
city, last evening, was found dead at
his home, where he lived with his wild
owed mother. His mother had been
over to one of the neighbors to help
the women on threshing day, and did
not get home until late in the evening.
On her return home she discovered
that the chores were not done and be-
gan to look for her son, but couldn't
find him She was about to give up the
search when she went around the
corn crib, only to find that her only son
was dead. At his side was double
barreled shotgun, with which he had
ended his life. 1t seems that he held
the gun at his left e;ir. and with a
stick in the other hand touched off the
trigger. The charge entered just back
of the ear and blew almost the entire
back of his head off. The cause OF
this act is not known. He was a sin
gle man, about 40 years of age, own
ed a good farm and was seemingly
making money. The coroner was noti-
fed and at present an inquest is being
held.

dozen German and Scandinavian
ministers in the city yesterday after
noon upon the invitation of Rev.

the hospital they will do SO. The men
are here, not as representatives of any

Special to Times-Republican.

Burlington, Aug. IA gentleman

name of w. e. Osborn, applied to the
police for assistance yesterday shortly
after noon. He was evidently good,
honest, hard working man, a farmer
in prosperous circumstances. Coming
into Burlington on a train, he had
made the acquaintance of a tall, bib
tongued fellow, who introduced him
self as Mr.. Miller and proved a very
entertaining conversationalist. Ar
irving at the station Mr.. Miller ac-

Osborn if he had $500. Mr.. Osborn re-
piled in the negative, but stated that
he had $50. OF course, under the cir
cumstances. $50 could be made to do.
AS soon as the little matter at the ex.-
press company's office had been at
tended to, he would join Mr.. Osborn
and they would go up to the bank at
the next corner, and Mr. Miller would
return the little loan to his old friend.
Mr. Osborn waited and waited in
vain. Mr.. Miller never returned. 1t
was found later that Miller. or what
ever his name may be, slipped up the
stairway in the Grimes block. A few
minutes later he made his exit down
the outside stairway, or perhaps came
down the fire escape. Mr.. Osborn wait

lengthen into hours. He looked into the
express office, he gazed anxiously down
street, and he beheld no trace of his

Waterloo, Aug. 1.-THE entire west
and middle west is to be represent
ted at the coming convention OF
the Young Women's Christian as
ISOLATION students to be held at
Cedar River park beginning Friday.
Over four hundred young women are
already registered and more names are
being sent in every mail. 1t is expected
that between 600 and 800 will be in at
tendance at the time Of the opening
session next Friday evening, August
18.
A feature of the convention is the
great scope Of territory represented by
the workers of the Y. w. G. A.. Up to
this morning thirteen states Of the
west were represented. Among the
states furnishing representatives are
Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Ar
kansas Illinois and Indiana.
The annual convention Of this as
ISOLATION was formerly held at Lake
Geneva, but the annual meeting grew
to such proportions that 1t was found
necessary to divide the convention and
hold it in two different sections, Wa
terloo was chosen as the meeting place
of one section, the convention to fol-
low the bible institute at the Chautau-
gu grounds.
The meeting which will open next
Friday will be second only to the inter-
national Evangelical Young Peoples
meeting held here two years ago in the
area of territory represented.
The meetings are open to the public
| and Waterloo people are invited to at
tend and assist in making the conven-
ton a success.

Mason City, Aug. 1.-THE fidelity OF
a dog was clearly demonstrated here
the other day. Mrs. Michael Toner
was found dead in the Coldwater, a
small stream running thru Dougher-
ty. The family had a Shepherd dog
they value very highly. This dog has
fondness for Mrs. Toner. In the ear
ly morning she arose, and it is thought
that while under some temporary de-
rangement she went to the stream and
drowned herself The dog accompan-
led her to the stream, hours after, 1t
is thought the deed was committed the
dog was found on the bank near where
the body lay in the water. Strangers
We're first to approach and discovered
the body. The dog would not allow
them to touch it and they had to send
for members of the family before the
faithful dog would relinquish his
watch. The dog was wet and it is
evident from the appearance of her
clothing that he had tried to pull her
to the shore.
