SHOT At TRAIN
Gus Damage Done Bullets and
Rocks Crash Through Train ut Barn
well. HiIda and Denmark But No
One Is Hit.

Excursionists returning from Auguc-
Ia last night on Knights excursion re-
port a serious rocking and shooting
into the train at several stations in
Barnwell county. Many windows in
the coaches were shattered with oul-
:, lets and rocks, but from what can be
learned no serious injury was done TO
passengers.
At Barnwell. when the second section
of the train started off, a volley OF pis-
toll bullets crashed through the wir-
dows. The shots were fired, 1t is
thought, by passengers, who got off at
the station, and they being near the
track and below the elevation OF the
train the bullets ranged high in the
coaches, many of them striking the
ceiling. This accounts for there being
no n hurt.
Sheriff Burch was on the train and
says as the train pulled out of Barn
we'll, no less than fifty shots were fired
at it. The sheriff was sitting with
Jack Lee, of Lynch, when the first
shot fired struck a window a few seats
ahead. Hardly before passengers could
bow their heads to get below the win
dow sill shots came thick and fast. A
bullet PASSED through the rim of Mr..
Lees hat.
The performance vas repeated at
Hilda,a little station this side of Barn
well, and at Denmark, but the disorder
was not as bad as at Barnwell.
At n of these places a negro wom-
an was struck by a rock and pretty Sc
riously hurt.
There was no rowdiness on the train.
The people were well behaved until
they reached their destination when
there was a disposition among them to
get rowdy. There was some drunken
ness on the train coming back, but ap-
parently not enough to interfere with
the peace.
The Coast Line will investigate the
trouble thoroughly and if possible have
the guilty parties punished to the ex-
tent of the law. The Offense is quito
serious and is cause enough for the
| courts to pass penitentiary sentences
on the guilty parties.-Florence Times.

MIXED UP MESS.
Man Who Wa. Seeking His Runaway
Vito Finally Runs Away With the
Mother Of the Man Who Ran Away
With His Wife-The Old Lady's
Husband in Pursuit.

Special to Times. Republican,.
Fort Dodge, Sept. IA short
time ago man from Sioux City
named Clark arrived here and told a
most pitiful story of his wife running
away with another man.
A letter arrived from the sheriff at
Sioux City the same day saying that
this story was true and that the local
officers should do all in their power to
aid him. Clark told story Of how his
wife was insane and had been led
away by this man Riley.
Clark heard the couple were here in
Fort Dodge and succeeded in finding
Riley's mother who had been married
again to man named Cody. This
woman told Clark she would aid him
to find his wife If he would promise
not to prosecute her son. This Clark
Promised and so stayed around here
for days waiting for his wife to come
back as Mrs. Cody promised.
Clark frequented the sheriff's office
during this time and told how this Mrs.
Cody was trying to get him to run
away with her and let his own wife
go. AT the time he would swear at
the woman and say that he was going
to kill her son If he saw him.
A New Story Received.
Now, II a story received here is true
Clark has at last fallen victim to this
siren, who is old enough to be his
mother and has skipped out with her.
Mrs. Cody's husband Is horse trader
with considerable money and he is
pursuing the two, and threatens to get
them both.
The way the information was re-
ceived here was through a badly
spelled letter sent the Messenger from
Sioux City and signed "Tatel Tail"
1t is headed worse than ever, and
reads as follows:
The Letter.
Editor Messenger-Do you remem-
Der Mr.. Clark, from Sioux City that
lost his wife? that is lost her by John
Riley stealing her. Well, Mr.. Clark
has run away with the said Riley's
mother and her husband is after him
red hot. The old man has all kinds Of
money and will probably catch them.
They say that Clark had his wife
living for him before she ran
away
You can send word to Sioux City
about Clark If you wish.

convicted last Tuesday OF the crime of
burglary committed on April 16, last,
at Iowa Falls, where unaided he broke
into the home of Rev. Hargreaves, Sc
curing several articles of small value
The time Of sentence was fixed by
Judge J. H. Richard, who is holding
court here, for yesterday, but the
prisoner was unable to be brought in
to court. Sheriff Mitterer reported
that Howard was under the doctors,
care and was suffering from inflam-.
nation of the kidneys. The prisoner
received the best of medical attention,
Doctors Morse, Gethman, Underwood
and Marsh being In attendance.
But little has been learned about the
career Of the unfortunate young man.
He told the other boys in the jail that
he had been discharged from the Sar.
Quentin penitentiary just week be-.
fore he got into this trouble last spring.
He was twenty-four years old and has
relatives in London, Ontario. The on.
ly letters he has written while in pri..

lowing persons: Fl. Parnell, 2O3 Vic

On August II, Howard, made an al
most successful attempt to break from
the Hardin county Jail. He had Sc
cured an old case knife and made it
into saw, with which he had sawed
the iron bars of the jail windows, but
the watchful eye of Sheriff Mitterer
discovered the defective bars, and the
prisoner was consequently shut up In
the cage, while as a rule the prisoners
are allowed the freedom of the corri-
doris. During his illness, Howard was
well cared for, not only by the sher-
lit and physicians, but the other pyis-
oners showed themselves to be excel
lent nurses. Brooks, VINO is in for rob-
berry committed at Iowa Falls, showed
himself especially competent. The
county will bury Howard here. He was
a Catholic and received the rites of
his church from the Reverend Father
Convery, the last of the week.

How to Make
Children Healthy
Proper Care, Clean Teeth, Clean Skins
HealthfuI Stomaohs, Plain
Wholesome Food


The Ills of man or woman are more
often than not the result of improper
care or training in childhood. The
child does not know, and the parent
as too often careless or negligent and
for this the child must suffer through
grown-u up years.
How often do you see child who
uses the tooth brush properly,F yet
many misshapen mouth comes from
that and many a stomach trouble
comes from bad teeth. This is only one
instance.
How many parents study what their
children should eat Many cases of con-
stipation are caused by wrong food. A
gentleman, the publisher of we'll
known magazine, came into my office
the other day and In speaking of these
matters said: "Our little girl was pad
" constipated. We finally took her to
q we'll known Sanitarium and they
told us that the breakfast foods we had
been using were to a considerable extent
the cause. We tried several Of those
( recommended by the doctor at the San
1tarium, but the child didn't like them.
although she improved somewhat In
health She always was fonder of
Malt-Vita than any other breakfast
food so we got her that. She enjoyed it
and after using 1t a short time she was
completely rid Of the trouble"
Now the people who make Malta
Vita do not advertise is as cure for
constipation, but they do claim and
with facts to back them that 1t is the
most perfect natural food on the mar
ket, and used regularly will restore to
normal condition any person who is
suffering from arrangement Of the di-
gestive apparatus and besides it is just
the best you ever tasted.
Wheat has in 1t all the elements Of
the human body. Wheat makes meat.
Hutchison, the great British food ex-
pert, says that proteids, water and
little mineral salt will build tissue and
nothing else will. Wheat is rich in pro-
feids. almost IL per cent, and Malta
Vita is the whole OF the wheat. That's
why Malta-vita makes muscle, Malta
Vita also makes blood, bone and nerve
force because it is all Of the wheat and
prepared in such way that 1t Is
quickly absorbed by the blood Malta
Vita is now 10scents at all grocers.
