GOES UP PILOT LADDER.
Presidents Daughter Boards Liner to
 Meet Fiance's Sister.

New York, Feb 1.-Miss Alice Roosevelt and her fiance. Congress-
 man Nicholas Longworth, boarded d
 revenue cutter and went down New
 York harbor to meet the steamer Kali ser Wilhelm der Crosse, uIon which
 Comtesse de Chambrun, Mir Long, Worfh's sister. was passenger. The c0mtesse. who was formerly Miss
 Clara Longworth of Cincinnati, has
 come to this country to attend Miss
 Roosevelt's wedding.
 At quarantine station the revenue cutter went alongside the big liner. An attempt was made to lower a com paniOn ladder for Miss Roosevelt. but the delay in doing this was too great
 and Miss Roosevelt boarded the steam- CT by the pilot ladder.
 Miss Roosevelt had an even more exciting experience with camera
 ''fiends" than the day before and was finally compelled to protest against be- ing bounded any longer. In company
 with Mrs Robert Goelat Miss Roose- welt drove in a victoria to the home of Mrs Ogden Mills on Sixty-ninth streer wheresthey dismissed the carriage. It soon became known that the presi- dents daughter was in the Mills house and a crowd of 300 gathered, including reporters and camera men. So intent were they upon their watch of the Mills house that none paid any attention to party of four women who twenty minutes later left q house four doors away It was not until the women had reached Madison avenue that the crowd realized that the party included Mrs GOelet. Miss Roosevelt and the celebrated Mills twins. daughters of Mrs Ogden Mills.
 When this was learned there was a grand rush for the party. At Seven- tieth street and Madison avenue Miss Roosevelt and her friends were over- taken and several of the more ambi- tious photographers lined up before the quartet and began rapid fire of shutters.t"' ,ii't 5ei
 Then it was that Miss Roosevelt's good nature. which had been severely tested. disappeared. Her face showed anger. and she spoke 10 one of the camera men who was within half dozen feet of her and in the act of pressing the bulb
 'N0w. please stop" she said. q ask you to please leave me alonc. Don't keep this up day after day. Really. 1t is too much. I posed for you on the boat when you asked .ne to. Don't you think it would he kind to allow me the privacy that should be mine!"
 Miss Roosevelt's plea had the de- sired effect. Even the brazen photo graphers. used to such admonitions from their victims. fell back. Only one who had not heard continued. Miss Roosevelt then turned to the oth- CTS and said:
 Wont you please make him stopi It's very embarrassing for my friends to be annoyed in this way. Now, please go." s+
 At this the last photographer fell back. and Miss Roosevelt. her first victory over the camera men won, proceeded with her friends north tc street, Ia the home of Mrs Goelet again.
 Miss Roosevelt had a narrow escape from injury in Fifth avenue Tues day morning. While seated in vic toria with Mrs Goclet | horse back of them became frightened at an auto mobile and plunged forward. Many persons saw the danger to the occu pants of the carriage. and several seized the frightened horse by The i,aaI

Needless Alarm.

Here's poor man coughing away
his lungs-at least so his relatives
think.
It's cough, cough; hack, hack, hack;
all day and sometimes all night.
Must be consumption" think the
alarmed ones.
And of course, there is always pos
sibility that they may be right.
But in most cases, they're wrong:
because Dyspepsia is SO much more
common than Consumption.
And Dyspepsia causes chronic cough.
just like Consumption.
The dyspeptic cough, 1t is well to
remember, can be quickly cured by
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
No need to be alarmed about 1t,
unless you make up your mind to ne
glect it.
Then, indeed, you must look out for
danger; for the Dyspeptic Cough often
grows into a Consumptfve Cough II
neglected, by the constant lung irrita-
ton which it causes.
So the best way is to waste no time,
but begin at once the use of these IA
nous little tablets, the timely use OF
which has saved many a sick person
from ending in a consumptive's grave.
Remember, however, if you please,
that Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will
positively NOT cure Consumption, but
prevent it.
OF course, they can always be de-
pended on to cure all the other symp-
toms of indigestion.
They are universal cure, for one
universal disease.
They cure nothing else, but what
they do, they do thoroughly and well.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
result of the most thorough investi-
cation into the inside causes and the
cure of Indigestion, that has ever been
attempted.
They have solved a problem, the
answer to which a hundred thousand
physicians in America are today CROP
ing for in vain.
They cure the most severe, long
continued chronic, complicated cases OF
Indigestion that can be found. They
are far ahead of the most modern med
ical practice, because the most success
full physicians Of the day. In the cure
of diseases of the digestive organs, are
using Stuart's Dyspepsia Iaplets as d
basis for their success
They stoop to Stuarts to CONQUER.
And Stuart's lift them up. out OF
the rut.
If, therefore, you are victim of this
dread disease, which counts It's vlctlms
by the million, brace up and take new
heart for YOU cannot fail to cure your
trouble. if YOU will only put your faith
In this great remedy, stuart's Dyspep-

Testimony Concluded in the Celebrated
Paving Case at Iowa City.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa City, March 16.-The celebrated
paving case, Saunders VS.. Iowa City
and the Warren Bros Bitulithic Com
pany. which has been hanging fire
since early last summer, has gone to
Judge o. A. Byington for decision, and
the latter has taken it under advise
ment.
The plaintiff offered evidence which
showed that the Identical pavement
which was to be laid in Iowa City at
1913 had been laid in Duluth, Mimi,
for $1.14. and that Warren Bros. have
furnished the bituminous surface,
which they claim to sell at $1.45 per
square yard, to Davenport Arm for
so cents a yard.
The case is practically certain to go
to the supreme court, however. decided
The issue involved is the laying Of BIZ
tulithic paving on Iowa avenue. Lee
gal talent from New York is here to
take part. It is generally considered
to be a fight between the Warren and
Barber people, with the city as stamp
ing ground.

Summer
BENEFITS NORTHWESTERN IOWA
The Value of Land in kossuth and Ad-
joining Counties Will Be Greatly In
creased-over $4,000 900 Arc to Be
Expended In Retaining Smaller
Lakes and swampy Lands.
Special to Times-Repuhlican.

! Special to Times Republican.
| Spencer, March 16.--Over 800 miles
| of bitches to drain vast acres of the
swampy land Of Kossuth county and
other adjoining counties, are proposed
for the coming spring and summer
Many acres of land In the northwest
ern part of the state will be drained
this summer, and this, together with
will greatly increase the value of the
land in northwestern Iowa. Iowa has
an acreage of over 10000 in waste and
lake lands. The best of the northern
lakes. Clear lake, Okoboji, Spirit and
several other smaller lakes. will never
be marred by the drainage magnate
but rather kept for the purpose of con-
Quoting summer resorts. The lakes
are favorite resting places for thou
produce the clearest of ice and afford
the best of winter sport, ice boating.
But the smaller lakes, Of acreage OF
from 200 to 700, will be drained to-
gether with the swampy lands Of the
state and made to yield the crops Of
other improved land.
The amount of money to be expend-
ed in retaining the waste lands OF
Iowa will exceed $3,000,000, according
to the best estimate Of drainage engi-
neers who have been over the ground
During the last session of the state
legislature bill was passed by which
terms all the reclaimed lands would be
reverted to the state. which could do
whatever 1t desired with them. The
theory many OF the statesmen had was
than the land where there was a lake
could not be successfully reclaimed
and made to produce crops. The con-
trary has been proved and the fine
farms In this part of the state will
stand proof to the adverse OF what the
solons at Des Moines two years ago
thought and said about the draining
OF the swamps and smaller lakes. The
lakes, while shallow. have been the
favorite breeding places for thousands
Of ducks and muskrats and are the best
hunting grounds in the state.
