Lumber Wagon Auto.

The people of Waverly saw some
thing the other day that they never
saw before and the entire population
lined up along the curbing to see it
go by. 1t was an ordinary lumber
wagon passing swiftly down the
street without any horses propelling
it. The contrivance was invented by
Ed. Meyers, a former Waverly citizen.
now residing at GAINESVILLE. 1t is
composed of wagon frame under
meath which is swung gasoline
engine which furnishes the motor
power. The gearing is unique
continuance which is entirely Mr..
Meyers own conception. The steer
ing apparatus is patterned after the
automobile type Mr.. Myers claims
that he can do anything with his
wagonmobile that can be done with
the best autos and his street exhibition
in Waverly justifies this claim.
When completed these traction wagons
will cost about 5000 each. Their ex-
IRENE speed will be about fifteen miles
per hour and they will have hauling
capacity of five tons.

Forbidden by the Iowa law to
shoot the multitude of birds that is
rapidly destroying the cherry crop, the
fruit growers of this section are almost
in despair. They have resorted to
every known means to drive the birds
from the orchard, but the feathered
thieves have become accustomed to
the false alarms and are so bold that
they pay little or no heed to the usual
devices. No end of devices have been
unearthed. Some people have erected
scarecrows Of terrible makeup. while
the supply of mosquito bar has nearly
vanished. The ferocious house cat
has been called into the service and
now hangs within a cage all day
amongst the limbs of the cherry tree.
One Humboldt man rang a COW bell,
tied in cherry tree, at frequent
intervals one whole day to scare the
birds away. Independent.

Hard Earned Money.

Mark Twain was asked the other
day if he remembered the first money
he ever earned and promptly replied
that he remembered it well. For the
benefit of other boys the story should
be told. 1t shows how many ways
there may be of earning little money
In Marks school it was rule that
the boy who hacked or marred his
desk must either pay $5 or take a
licking. Mark was obliged to tell
his father that he was up against the
proposition. 1t would be a disgrace
to the name of Clemens. his father
said, to have a boy of his family
licked in school for such an act Of
vandalism. so he invited him upstairs,
meantime promising to give him the

A change in the design of the small
bronze cent which has made it's APP
pearance each year since it's adoption
in 1864 is being considered by con-
gressional committee and experiments
are also under way looking to the use
of a new metal-either pure nickel
or aluminum-to take the place of that
now used, which is 90 per cent copper
and per cent zinc. The contemplated
change is the outcome of the
agitation in favor of new designs for
United States coins of all denomina-
tions, not single one of the present
series seeming TO meet with general
favor. Expert numismatists go so far
as to say that never in the history of
the country has it been represented by
a less artistic set of coins. Since
1913, when the first cent was issued at
the mint, down to the present day
there have been no less than 200
different master dies for the cent, and
this despite the fact that in the last
forty-two years there has been no al.
teration in the design.

A land turtle marked Is years ago
by Len Myers, boy down in Black
Hawk county, was plowed up recently
and is an interesting proof of the
longevity of this animal, which has
probably lived on the little sand knoll
where it was found, for the past fifty
or even hundred years. Eighteen
years ago the boy found a little land
turtle on sand knoll and cut his
initials and the date on its shell or
csrapace. When the marks had been
left the lively little crawling creature
was given his liberty. While blowing
on the knoll recently, the coulter of
his breaking pillow struck hard sub
stance, the plow veered to one side
and little land turtle was turned to
light. An examination of it's
carapace showed the engraving, 81.
M, 1888" The turtle was Just as
large then AS it is now, and there is
no way of telling how old the creature
is. 1t may have been there before
the country knew the presence of a
pale face and when only the red men
inhabited the land now known as
Black Hawk county.

THE CAMPAIGN.

The campaign now drawing to a
close in this state for the nomination
for Governor is altogether the lowest
exhibition of Ward politics ever
witnessed in the state. In one of the
Wards in Davenport they undertook to
hold a caucus in a room with the front
door locked and only the sin
formed were admitted at the back
door. Finally the front door was
broken in and the voters asked to be
permitted to vote and were refused.
Such tactics are new in this state
and have been introduced by men who
care nothing for party or its principles.
The whole campaign has been one of
disintegratiOn, of trickery, snap
caucuses and snap conventions.
Can the Republican party of Iowa
recover from such shock in time to
elect state officers? "More than half
the time,'' says one we'll informed
resident of Des Moines, one who has
taken no interest in the campaign so
far as candidates are concerned, "the
Capital is empty of state officers, all
out in the counties working for their
candidate
OF course these men will work har-
der upon their return and the business
of the state will not suffer to any great
extent, but what a spectacle it is to
see men thus scrambling for au office.

ness to see such a disgraceful scramb-

The closing exercises of the DEBORAH
High School last week were greeted
by large audiences, which were more
than delighted with the splendid
programs presented. On Wednesday
evening the graduating class gave
the class play before an audience
that filed the opera house. The title
of the play was 'Niobe" and the
different characters were most pleas
ingly interpreted by the members of
the class. 1t was the unanimous
verdict of the delighted audience
that this was one of the very best
class plays ever given in DEBORAH.
The play has a good story. Niobe,
the Grecian statue, comes to life in
the house of an insurance agent who
has placed it there for safe keeping
This takes place one evening, while
the agent, Mr.. Dunn, is alone
Upon the family's return Dunn
accounts for the presence of the strange
lady by claiming she is the governess
whom they had been expecting
Suspicion is aroused by the strange
action of Niobe, and after many
amusing situations, an old maid,
Dunn's sister in-law, attempts to
test Niobe with an examination, which
ends i'll an open rupture, the old

family with her. Finally Mr..
Tompkins, the owner, comes to claim
the property, falls in love with Niobe
and forfeits single blessedness. 1t is
a very amusing play and was un
usually well rendered. One of the
pleasing fetures of the evenings
entertainment was the music splendid
ly rendered by the new Oneota or
chestra, a very creditable musical
organization recently formed.
On Thursday evening the gradual
ing exercises were held. the program
opening with two we'll rendered songs
by the high school chorus, followed
by short comedietta, 1.-THE Triumph
