Slerif's Officers Put in Entire
Night on Wild Goose Chase
to Dillon Neighborhood
GIRLS STRANGE ACT CAUSE
Cora stanfield, Aged IS, Uses Imagin.

sibIe For Actons-cIaimed to Have
Been Assaulted.

Cora Stanfield, a girl between II and
16 years of age, daughter Of Lee Stan
field, living one mile north of LeGrand,
was responsible for the arousing of the
lon Friday night, after reporting to her
employer, John Rubenbauer, that two
men had assaulted her. The girl did
not allege anything criminal in the as
sault, but claimed to have been tied to
u tree by two men. who then left her.
The girl was released from her bonds,
where she had been tied to the tree, by
friends who were searching for her Fri
day evening, and who heard her cries
from the roadside.
To go back of Fridays story the
sheriff office. on Wednesday night, was
informed by Mr.. Rubenbauer, who lives
one and one-quarter miles southwest
of Dillon, that his domestic, Miss Stan
field, had been assaulted by man,
while in the coal house getting some
cobs. The man had cut the girls hair
off, but had otherwise not harmed her.
The sheriff thought the story strange,
and did not even investigate, altho he
told MIR. Rubenbauer to keep "a watch
for the cu]prit. and let him know II
there were any further developments.
When second message from Mr.
Rubenbauer came Friday night all the
sheriff's officers started post haste for
Dillon. The trip was made in an hours
time, and the country was found In
arms. Stern faced men. armed with
shot guns and rifles, were patroling the
roads and searching the timber The
sheriff heard the story again, and di-
vided the searching party into four
squads. encircling some timber and
fields and meeting at the center. Nc
one was found.
The more the sheriff and his officers
searched, the more confident they were
that some one was bidding for motor
iety, and that there was but very little
to the assault story. To make a long
story short, Miss Stanfield was APP
preached, and. closeted with the sher-
ifs officers and Mr. and Mrs. Ruben
bauer, finally confessed, after an hour
and half's time, that she had both
cut off her own hair and tied herself to
the tree. The girls object, it seems, is
to get away from farm work. that she
may attend school. Her parents. she
claims, want her to continue working
but she is anxious to go to school. Miss
Stanfield confessed to have been d
reader of trashy literature and this
probably assisted her in her magma
tive powers
1t was O'clock this morning before
the sheriff's officers reached home from
their hard trip.

Nowadays scientists believe that in
cleanliness lies the secret Of prevention
of diseases.
To prevent disease, remove the

Just as unclean habits breed many
diseases, so careless habits will breed
dandruff. Improper use of another's
brushes combs, ETC., will surely cause
dandruff, and, in time. will just as
surely cause badness.
It's nlicrobic infection, nothing more
nor less.

CAPACITY OF 40 ARC LIGHTS
Committee Decides to Adopt Enclosed
Arc Light, Several Of Which Are
Already in Use-Will Make Entire
System Up to Date, and Provide
Additional Service.

The committee on water works ana
electric lights of the city council, late
Friday afternoon, closed contract
with the General Electric Company, of
Chicago, for the installation of a large
new dynamo in the cty's lighting plant.
The bid of the General Electric people
was in competition with bids of the
Westinghouse Electric Manufacturing
| Wayne Electric Corporation, TT.
Wayne, Ind; and the Western Electric
Company of Chicago. The contract
price for the new dynamo Is $1,000.
MIR. John Kennedy, an electrical ex-
pert of the General Electric Company,
who has been in the city week MAX
ing u thorough inspection of the sys-
tenn, has filed his report with the COM
mittee. The report will be presented
to the council at the adjourned meeting
Monday night. In effect the report
states that it will cost too much to re-
pair the present machinery and lamps,
in an effort to make them give salts
mends that no expenditure be made on
the old material, us the dynamos are
already so overloaded, and have been
for years, that it Is his wonder that
they have carried the load as long as
they have, without causing a great deal
more serious trouble.
The new machine that the city has
contracted for is General Electric
brush arc generator, OF ITO light ca
pacity, which will carry forty more
lamps than the Two dynamos, under
the present system. operate. The new
generator is the most modern type of
arc machine built.
The committee has decided on using
the enclosed arc lamp, of which there
are now in operation fifty-three Of the
1870 lamps Of the system. The entire
system will be the same style of lamp
as against four separate and distinct
styles now used. This will reduce the
cost of repairs to minimum, as the
repairs can be bought in single order,
instead of making SO many different
orders. Some of the repairs to lamps
used in the present system are more
expensive than they would be ordinar-
IL owing to the. fact that the lamps
are so Anticipated and out of date that
the repairs are no longer kept in stock,
and have to be made to order
1t has not been decided how many
| lamps will be purchased, in installing
the new system, that matter having
been left by the committee to bring be-
fore the council Monday evening. The
lamps needed will probably cost ST.
600, making a total investment of 81
800 in the new system. The city has
for sale the machinery at the sewage
disposal plant, which should bring ST.
500 or $4,000.
Mr.. w. j. Ferris, of Chicago, a sales
| man in the employ of the General
Electric Company, was assigned to
represent the company at the opening
of the bids Friday afternoon. Mr.
Kennedy returned to Chicago Friday
night.

NORTON OUT OF 1T.
Burlington Man Will Not Be Candidate
For President of Iowa LEAGUE.

For President OF iowa League.
According to a story purporting to
come from Burlington, and published
in a Des Moines evening paper, Frank
c. Norton, president Of the Iowa State
League, will not be a candidate for re-
election at the meeting to be held this
fall in Ottumwa. Norton's refusal. so
it said, is not on account of his fear
that he might not be able to land the
lob, but is due to his having had
enough. Norton has felt keenly the
criticism of papers of the circuit which
have roasted" him for failure to pro-
vide umpires of the right kind. or more
often no umpires at all, and Norton
thinks the presidency, which pays a
salary of $500. is not worth the grief
which goes with it. From Burlington,
It is said, Norton has already assurance
of enough support to elect him should
he want the place, but he does not, and
will not accept.

LOCAL COMMENT

The subscription for 100000 worth
of stock in a proposed buggy company
in almost ten hours time is sufficient
answer to the information given Mr.
Allen by some one, to the effect that
Marshalltown was virtually dead in
it's she'll" and would Chill" any
scheme to open it's buggy factory. The
trouble heretofore has been entirely
with the schemers. Marshalltown cit
liens, as a class, are land investors,
sure thing spectators, and do not buy
gold bricks knowingly. Mr. Allen
came along with scheme that looked
like good business, and it was snapped
up. Had 1t required twice the local
subscriptions, one more days time
would have produced them. Should
another proposition, just as good. pre-
sent itself tomorrow, there would be
no difficulty in raising another $4,000
for it. Show US the worthy enterprise
and unlimited capital is ready in Mar
shalltown.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1905-09-16

What this buggy enterprise means
to the city can hardly be realized to
it's full extent. Should it succeed and
pay to 200 stockholders a dividend OF
10 per cent, as Mr.. Allen hopes to do,
the impetus given to investments In
local factories will be immeasurable.
