Mrs. Carl Williams went to Oska-
loosa this morning to be present at the
funeral OF Charles w. Cole, former
Marshalltown boy, who will be ,remem-
bered by many friends here as the
youngest son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles

city. Mr.. Cole who was only 10 years
of age, died Sunday night at o'clock.
He had been i'll almost two, years, and
for over year had been taking OUT
door treatment, living in a tent in the
back yard at the Storm" Wheeler
home.
Charley" Cole was born In this city,
and lived here with his parents until
he was a lad or years old. His
father, for many years a conductor on
the Iowa Central, was transferred to
Keithsburg, and later to Oskaloosa,
which has been the family's home for

before going to the hospital. There
was slight hope for her recovery up
to 2 o'clock this morning, when
change for the worse set in and deatn
followed few hours later.
Miss Trautmann was born in White
water, Wis, Dec. q. 1877. She came
to this city with her parents in 1881.
and attended thei public schools until
1894, when her health would not per-
NIT further study. Later she attended
Cornell College for time, but had TO
give up her work because OF her
health.
Miss Trautmann was an excelleh'
young woman, an exemplary Christian
and member of the Methodist church,
and possessed friends as she numbered
her acquantances. There has been a
vast amount OF interest manifested IN
her illness, and her death will cause
general regret.
Beside the idolizing parents OF the
young woman. who have done every
thing in their power that their daugh-
ter might be saved to them, the de-
ceased is survived by two sisters, Mrs.
Sam McGrew, living three and one-half
miles southwest of the city, and Mrs.
4. T. Palmer. OF Coffeyville. Kas. An
other sister, Nettie, died in 1894
The arrangements for the funeral
have not been definitely made, pending
word from Mrs. Palmer. 1t Is very
likely the services will be held from
the house Thursday afternoon.

city's motion to dissolve the restrain

doubt as to the extent of the effect
the removal Of the dam has had on the
city's water supply, but it was certain
1T had had some effect, and SO long as
there was the least particle of danger

Confusion Over Primary Regis

General Election
POLL BOOKS ARE INSPECTED
And County Central Committee Finds
That There Arc 1874 Republicans
Who Will Lose Their Votes Nov. s,
unles. They Resister-Next Thurs
day Board. Will Be in Session.

The county central committee has
discovered 1894 republicans in the FIVE
wards of Marshalltown who will lose
their votes on election day unless they
register. These names appear on the
primary registration books, but not on
the books of the general election The
trouble Is that a great many think
they are registered for the general
election when they are not. Their
registration was for the primary last
spring.
If any man has moved from one
ward to another since the last general
election, or has become voter since,
he must register anew. No man can
be sure he Is registered unless he goes
around and looks at the book himself.
Let everybody register next Thursday,
when the registration boards will be
in session for the first time
The boards will be in session on
Thursday from a. m. until p. m. On
the following day, Friday. October %,
the boards will again be In session and
on Saturday, November 8, for the COR
rection OF the registry lists. On Tues
day. November s, on election day, there
will be an opportunity for only voters
who have been out Of the city on each
previous day OF registration to become
registered. AS 1T is always best to
register early, and gel 1t off ones
mind, the date to bear in mind Is next
Thursday October %.
The places Of registry are as follows:
First ward-No. 22s,a East Main
street, second dor east of Reflector Of

on Suggestion of a Minister Of the
city-Passsd Without Opposition.

The city council adopted new orr
dinance that will entail extensive
changes in the places of amusement.
churches and other buildings of pub
lie assemblages. All doors at the en-
trance of such buildings must be made
to swing outward, and the new law
not only affects such buildings as may
be erected in the future, but also all
present structures where there are
public gatherings.
The ordinance is one to provide for
the safety Of the public in case OF fires
or panic. In its provisions are In
cluded all places of amusement, such
as theaters and dance halls, churches
and other buildings where crowds
gather. Very few OF the halls and
churches Of the city at present COM
ply with the ordinance, which will be-
come effective as soon as official pub
LEGATION is made.
The ordinance is one drawn up and
presented under the direction of Mayor
Ingledue. who announced to the coun-
Gil that the suggestion came to him
from one of the ministers Of the city,
whose church 10 at present being re-
modelled. 1t Is argued that in case Of
panic the crowd would press against
the doors OF exit and thus make it
impossible to open them If they were
constructed to swing inward. The law
is similar to those in effect in the larg-
er cities, The property owners will be
given limited time in which to COM
ply with its provisions.

NEW CITY OFFICER
City Council Will Establish Office Of
sealer Of Weights and Measures -
Complaint From Coal Dealers 30.
cause of Variation in Public scales
inspires Action.

The city council has before it, with
the certainty of adoption. an ordinance
creating a new Office. that of city seal
err of weights and measures. The new
ordinance was up for consideration
Monday night and was passed to its
second reading, but final adoption was
postponed until the question of fees
could be determined upon.
The ordinance was inspired by coal
dealers of the city, who have COM
planned frequently Of late that the
public scales show u variation and do
not agree with their own scales. 4
will be the duty of the sealer to test
and adjust all scales over which COM
modities sold to the public are weigh
ed. 1t will be his duty to test any
scale on demand of the owners or OF
those who purchase commodities
weighed thereon.
To uroye his contention that there is
too great a variation in the public
platform scales, one coal dealer, Mr..
Weber, weighed the same load OF coal
on his own and on the three city
scales, and presented the figures to the
council. The net weight of the same
load on the four scales was 1850, 7,OSO.
7,170 and 1920 pounds respectively.
The owner is to pay the fees in case
the scales are found incorrect, but 9TH
erwise the one making the complaint
must pay The amount of the fees to
be charged, and which shall be the re-
enumeration of the sealer, was left un-
determined. 1t is probable the city Will
appoint Mr.. A. Sicard to the position,
as he at present is county sealer.
