How to Avoid Pneumonia. .

We have never heard of a single
instance of a cold resulting in pneu,
monia Or other lung trouble when
Foley's Honey and Tar has been
taken. 1t not only stops the cough,
but heals and strengthens the lungs
Ask forFoley's Honey and Tar and
refuse any substitute offered, DR..
G. J. Bishop of Agnew, Mich, says:
II nave used Foley's Honey and Tar
in three very severe cases of pneu-
monia with good results in every
case. Frost & Spies.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1905-01-26

The reason that coughs and colds
produce constipation and weaken
the lungs is because they interfere
with all digestion. That new dis
covery known as Kennedy's Laxa-
tive Honey cures all coughs,
Group, whooping cough, and assists
in expelIing colds from the system
by gently moving the bowels. 1t
is pleasant to take and contains no
opiates. Sold by Fox Bros

Town Of WaShburh Meets.

A public meeting of the residen is
Of the town of Washburn was held
in this city last Saturday afternoon,
and was pr sided over by Chairman

pretty clever in handling the meet
ing, When motion was to stop tie
litigation now going on Mr.. Row e
put the question, and seemed to be
the only person 10 the room to dis
cover that the motion was lost, and
he 50 declared. A motion to adjourn
was discovered by him TO have car
ried, although others present were
very much in doubt as to the result
of the voting. The meeting accom-
pllshed nothing, ard was a victory
for the town board and their thrt e
and quarter percent tax policy.

Carnegie has offered Leon, Iowa, a
$4,000 library building, and the offer has
been accepted by that enterprising
little city. Leon has for several years
enjoyed free public library, the same
containing over 1900 volumes of good
books, and now that it will have a per-
manent home, is matter in which all
are rejoicing. The value of a free library
to the people of a community can scarce
ly be estimated, and we congratulate

ing him to be the rightful heir of the
Servian throne. He has also placed
similar papers in the hands of the
American ministers at Belgrade and also
at Dresden, SaNony, where he was born.

be direct descendant of King Lazar,
of Servia, who was killed by the Turks
during the Turkish invasion of Servia

the Servian Throne, Strew also lays
claim to the treasures of King Lazar

GETS ALlFE JOB.
RlngqoId County Man in the
immigration Bureau.

DR.. P. L. Prentis of Iowa has been
appointed to be inspector of immigra
ton at Vancouver. His jurisdiction
will include all of the Puget Sound
territory. He has been stationed for the
past year at Winnipeg, Canada. The
transfer to Vancouver is material
advance in the service. He is under
the administration Of the treasury de-
partment. He will assume the duties
of his new Office at once.
DR.. Prentis was representative in the
legislature from Ringgold county for
three terms. He lived at Delphos. He
was first appointed to place under the
treasury department about two years
ago. He has advanced, his administra-
ton having been very creditable. He
was first at Sault ST. Marie and was
then advanced to the post at Winnipeg
The immigration service has been
thrown under civil service by the or
der Of the president and this means
present position permanently; that is
in the present place or in one higher
Promotions are said to come lively il
this branch of the service.
Probably no man was so effective in the
senatorial fights which ended with the
great battle of 1900 as DR.. Prentis. He
was loyal Cummins man. 1t was he
and DR.. B. L. Eiker OF Decatur count,
that broke the reservation open in 1900
But for them the fight would not have
been SO vigorous, for when they spill
from their natural territorial alliance i

apparent that it would be necessary t.

before the opening Of Congress. In case
there is no extra session this fall Mr.
and Mrs. Hepburn will remain in Clar-

Alldredge Wins at 0ttumwa.

James H. Alldredge, of Leon, was the
winner of wrestling match with j. ID.
Gallentine, of Keokuk, at Ottumwa last
Wednesday evening. The following ac-
count of the match is from the Ottumwa
Daily Courier:
In as lively tussle as the lovers Of
the wrestling art are privileged to see,
J.,H. Allredge, of LEON; champion of
Iowa, last night proved himself superior
to ]. H. Gallentine, CT Keokuk. Large
in stature, muscled and deep chested,
Gallentine showed himself hard prop
osition to deal with, secured the second
fall but yielded after hard struggle
in the decisive round to his opponents
superior wind and agility. Alldredge
by his victory over Gallentine last night
retains the championship of Iowa.
The Grand opera the scene of the con-
test was comfortably filed with an in
teresting crowd ofsportsmen.
The contest was referred by James
Owen. Alldredge gave his weight at
2OS pounds and Gallentine as 225. The
Police Gazette rules, which governed
the match seemed to suit Alldredge
early in the start, as he rendered futile
his opponents effort to roll him over as
they lay on the mat. He successfully
baff1ed Gallentine's every move that
meant the securing of a sure grip, and
| finally did the trick himself. After
eight and one-half minutes Of eXactlng
labor, Alldredge held Gallentines
shoulders to the mat, squeezing him
down with half Nelson crotch.
When the men grappled again, Gal
lentine was the aggressor. Although
his opponent succeeding in dislodging
him and giving him tight squeeze,
he got the upper hand. With a half
Nelson on the arm and neck followed by
a crotch hoist, he succeeded in putting
/ Alldredge where he wanted him, after
one and one-half minutes of time had
elapsed.
/ In the last chapter-the one that told
the tale-it seemed almost toss up be-
tween the two men until Alldredge got
the hold that did the work. Except for
the fact that Gallentine seemed a bit
winded, he was as slippery and hard to
corner as a contrary oyster, but was
unable to battle his opponent and take
the offensive. AS the pair rolled over
{ on the mat there was nothing to lndl'
cate that the affair would not be con
. tinued the rest OF the evening, so ag
. gressive was Gallentine, and so deter
.. mined, skillful and stubborn his oppo
. nent. Alldredge laid down on his mar
. and then squeezed him up in the middle
and sought to bring his shoulders t
! the mat but he .wriggled away. Onl.
once did he do it however for withou
much warning that the contest wa
