who had been cooking meal.
The Caldwell fire department turned
ont in fine style at the first alarm, but
the structure was in flames before any
thing could be done to save it. Mr..
Wood, the miller, tried to extinguish
the fire with exterminators but was un-
ahl. to do so. The mill which was huilt
about 1897, was owned by the Caldwell
Miningcompany, ii corporation, of which
Mr. Foote owned most Of the stock. 1t

"That the Il. & M. bank has the right

no final dividend had been declared
and none had been paid and the final

Fesis tho Loss Of Business-Iowa
News.

Mason City, Sept. 11.--Ever since
the Rock Island lost the line of track
from Fort Dodge to Des Moines to the
M. & st. l.. there have been succeeding
rumors that the Sibley branch Of the
Rock Island would be eventually con-
nected with the Iowa division by the
purchase of the Newton & Northwest
ern line from Gowrie to Newton.
But now since the Crooked Creek
officials have been figuring upon ex-
tending their line into Fort Dodge the
rumors take a new turn and it Is said
that underlying this extension Is a
deal which will eventually land the
Rock Island in Fort Dodge again.
where that road formerly did big
business, amounting to over 100000
annually, OF which 1t now has nothing.
Action at Standstiil.
There Is nothing new In the situa-
ton regarding the Crooked Creek rail-
road. The officers Of that company
who have been figuring on an extern
sion to Fort Dodge. have not been as
rapid about closing the contract with
the business men Of Fort Dodge as
was anticipated, and it is rumored that
they do not want to pledge themselves
to transfer their line to trunk line
now In Fort Dodge In return for the
bonus asked of the city. II such Ia
the case the local committee can be
relied upon to refuse to make q deal
with them, as the money subscribed
was promised with that understand
ing, and no committee would have the
power to change the agreement.
The general opinion is that the
Crooked Creek company has not made
any deal with any trunk line for the
sale of their road but that they believe
1t is feasible proposition OF they
would rebuild their line from Webster
City to Lehigh and extend in to Fort
Dodge, making all OF 1t In first class
shape.
May be Rock Island.
The proposed extension from Lehigh
to Gowrie Is not viewed with much
favor in Fort Dodge. II 1t is built 1T
is quite generally believed that 1t will
be the Rock Island that will buy the
Crooked Creek company, and not the
Northwestern. The Rock Island Is
at Gowrie with no southern terminus,
for its Sibley line and IL they bought
the rejuvenated Crooked Creek road
they no doubt would build to Dowa
from Webster City and connect with
their b., G. r. & N. line.
1t Is known that the Rosk Island
would like to be in Fort Dodge again
to get that juicy 100000 a year bust
ness which they lost thru the superior
generalship Of the M. & st. l.. in buy
ing the old d. NJ. & Ft. d. There is
no positive reason to believe that the
Northwestern is making any effort to
come to Fort Dodge.
While 1t is true that IL the Rock Is
land gets back to Fort Dodge it will
probably likely do more business ana
give better service than before, and
citizens there would like to see the
Rock Island running trains there again,
nevertheless 1t is ,the Northwestern
road that is needed because of it's more
extensive mileage in that part Of the
state

Kenney of this city has fallen heir to
a portion Of an estate in Ireland that
is valued at over s1,O00.O0O. Over
twelve years ago it's owner died. In
the British empire it is the law that an
estate. when there are no heirs or they
cannot be found. falls to the crown.
For number of years the rightful de-
scendents of the former owner Of the
land could not be located, and the gov
eminent seized the place. Then one
of the lawful heirs, Mrs. More, who
resides In Salt Lake City Utah. be-
came informed of the conditions and
fought the case for five or six years
making as many trips to the British
Isles in her efforts to secure the place.
She finally won her suit She then
commenced to locate the other heirs
of the estate. One was soon found to
live in Australia. She at last learned
of Mr. Kenney's location and came TO

said to amount to over $1,000,000. but

"and is acting madly. It's heart is sem
sual and carnal. Without the head or
heart 1t is going towards destruction"
He said that he visited with the pope
and conyersed with him on the mat
ter.
From the course of his remarks his
hearers think that he expressed the
pope's belief.
"The government of France is driv-
ing Catholic teachers from the coun-
try and the people demonstrate. but
cannon and arms rule and the work
goes on" he said. "The French gov
eminent is heartless and is mad.'
