ENGINEER IN COLLISION
WITH TRANSFER

Engineer James Davis, who was WIS.,
iting in Denver last week, in company
with his wife, started for home Satur-
day morning with Mrs. Davis and his
sister-in-law, Mrs. Zeno Davis. and on
approaching the Denver depot was
struck by a large transfer wagon and
bruised up some, the vehicle passing
over his grip and contents and crush
ing them completely. After accom-
panying the ladies as far as Cheyenne
on their way to this city, Mr.. DAYS
returned to Denver to secure satisfac-
ton from the transfer company. Some
of his Laramie friends to whom he
once gave advice regarding catch
ing street cars, city ways, ETC., are
now anxiously awaiting the genial en-
gineer's return, in order to give him
advice as to how to look out for the
dray wagons"

LOST SOME CATTLE
FROM POISON WEED

DIR. Wintermeyer. a former resident
of this city, but who has been living
in Denver for some time, lost fourteen
head of cattle Sunday and five others
were sick from eating poison weed.
The doctor was engeged in the dairy
business, having taken the Kline
ranch, toward the fish hatchery, and
on Saturday turned a bunch of about
100 cows into pasture, the animals
having been brought from his ranch
near Denver. Poison weed grows
freely in the pasture and the cattle
ate it readily, Before help could arrive
fourteen of the cattle were lead and
the other five were badly affected.
Alex Sellars went to the relief of the
doctor and helped him the best he
could. The cattle were all good milk
ers and the loss is quite severe

The Motor Boat of the Future.

Steam yachts are fast becoming a
drug on the market and man. million
aires are d~isposing of theirs at greatly
reduced prices and replacing them with
larger motor boats. Experts believe
that before long there will be gasoline
boats afioat at least two hundred feet
long. Experts in medicine long ago de
cided that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
was the leader among remedies for the
stomach, liver and bowels, and from a
standpoint OF merit, reliability and
cures was far ahead of any other medi-
cine. 1t has been this assurance that
persuaded thousands of sickly people
to try the Bitters, with the result that
they have since enjoyed better health.
Don't take anything but Hostetter's
when you suffer from bloating, heart
burn, poor appetite, clogged bowels,
headache, dyspepsia, indigestion, bill
iousness or malaria, fever and ague.

FISH NOTES.

Superintendent Campbell will make
a shipment of $4,000 young fish to
Green River tomorrow.
All the fish in the middle pond were
taken out Saturday and given a bath
in strong salt water for their health.
The superintendent will leave on
Thursday for Lander, to be absent for
several days, in the interest of the
branch hatchery at that place.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. A. Gonden, Mrs. f.
G. Let's and Mrs. Kemp of Omaha
spent Sunday afternoon as the guests
of Mr.. and Mrs. Campbell at their home
at the hatchery.
BY the constant use of traps, the raw
ages of the small rodents that have
been infesting the hatchery are minim-
lied. Several of the animals have
been caught and killed.
The three decoy ducks in the lower
lake are a great temptation for visi-
tors to make a sneak and pump them
full of shot. 1t is said that several
decoys have been stunt recently from
an overload of lead.
Superintendent Campbell in a recent
SEEMING expedition to Dale creek caught
a pair of fish new to him. They are
much like an ordinary trout in shape
and characteristics, except that they
are a bright silver gray in color, their
skin glistening in the light. Mr.. Camp
bell took some eggs from the female
and they are now Matching. He will
try to raise them and when they are
large enough specimens will be sent to
the bureau at the department of agri-
culture at Washington to be named
and described.

oTTuMwA,s FINANCES.

The most positive index to the f.
nancial condition of community is
contained in the condition of the de-
posts in that community's banks. FL
nancial institutions that are conserva-
lively managed and yet are aggressive
ly going after business create a feel
ing among people outside Of their city
that it is a good substantial commune
ty in which to be engaged in business.
There is no better advertisement of
a city's progressiveness and pros
perity than it's financial condition,
which, is nothing more nor less than
the condition of its financial institu-
lions.
Ottumwa's banks are well NAM
aged by business men, who, though con-
sentative and safe, realize the value
of progressive ideas in their business
as well as in other lines of activity.
They are known as being among the
most wisely managed financial institu-
lions to be found anywhere in Iowa,
and the statements just issued show
them to be in splendid condition, with
rapidly growing deposits.
On November 9, 1905, when state
ments Iby the banks we're called for,
the nine local banks showed total de-
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1906-02-10

posits Of $4,019,105.45. On January 20,
a little less than ninety days later, an
other statement, which was made at
the request of the treasury depart
ment showed deposits aggregating $4,-
446, 467.95. This is gain in little
more than two months of s427 ,362.50--
almost half million dollars. This is
equivalent to bank deposit of $40
Tor each and every man, woman and
child In Ottumwa.
This is certainly a splendid indica-
ton of goodItimes and needs no ar
gument to justify the claim.
When young man starts savings
bank deposit he is taking long step
in the direction of good and useful cit
izenship. He is placing himself in a
position to become factor in his
community and to assert his Individual
ity In way to make it felt. The man
who is working on salary should al
ways bear in mind that his employers
confidence In him is largely measured
by the ability he shoy to- live with
in his income and the amount he saves
from what he is paid for his work.

can do you have not his interests at

for a man to take it, he will choose
the man upon whom he thinks he can
