COMPLICATION IN SALE.
Base Ball Association Gets $500, But
ST. Paul Nav Not Get Williams,

Base Ball Association Gets $500, But
st. Paul May Not Get Williams.
There promises to be complications
in the sale Of Thirdbasenan Williams
to the ST. Paul club of the American
Association, unless the st. Paul man
agement makes terms with Williams,
which as yet is has not done, and which
it now looks as tho 1t would not do.
Tim O'Rourke, OF Waterloo, was in the
city Monday for the purpose of at
tempting to reach terms with Williams
but he left without succeeding. The
ST. Paul association has not offered
Williams terms, but has insisted that
he come to ST. Paul and terms would
be arranged there. Williams refuses
to go until he knows what the terms
are to be, and as result, while the
local association has the purchase
money and has assigned Williams
contract, to ST. Paul, Williams is still
here and intends to stay. The result
may be, in case ST. Paul cannot induce
Williams to go to that city, that it
will demand the purchase price re-
turned. This the local association will
not do unless 1t is forced to. In the
meantime Williams is the property of
St Paul. the local association having
relinquished all right to him by the
assignment of his contract. While
Williams will remain here for a time,
at least, until the case is settled or st.
Paul makes him terms to his liking,
the local management will not play
him for fear 'or further complicating
matters and laying itself liable.

SMOKING a CIGAR.
Curious Bet That Shows an Impossible
Way of Smoking.

Curious Bet That Shows an Impossible
Way of Smoking.
Il have a customer who thinks he
smokes twenty Wadworth Bros Chi
cos day." said B. A. Morgan. "As a
matter of fact, he gives away good
many. but is firm in his belief that he
smokes more cigars than any other
man in Marshalltown. He says he is
willing to bet that no man can smoke
even one cigar continuously un-
til it is consumed without TAX
ing it from his lips, and he has
won good many boxes of Chicos on
this simple bet.
"Of course, this mans trade keeps
me buying Chicos right along. but
aside from what I sell him, Chicos
have the largest sale of any cigar in
my case.
II warrant it clear Havana filler,
and although it sells for five cents it
is equal to any ten cent goods.

Rainy Weather Handicaps Car
nival Company and Kept
Many From Attending
NO FREE ACTS WERE GIVEN
Because of the Rain the Open Air
Shows Could Not Be Put On and for
the Same Reason tho Stadium Did
Not open-shows Are Respectable
What They Comprise.

With a blare of brazen music, the
din of the ballyho, the Patterson
Brainard Carnival Company opened its
doors Monday evening for the first of
it's performances during this week at
the grounds at Twelfth and Main
streets. The downpour Of the after
noon handicapped the company in get
ting it's shows ready for the opening,
and also kept away hundreds who
would have peen on hand last night.
AS result of the rain the free shows,
"leaping the flames" and the tight rope
stunt were rot put on. For
the same reason the Stadium, the
largest show OF the aggregation was
not opened.
All of the other percentage shows
however, were opened and doing bus
mess. and all seemed to be getting
their share. The show fronts present
good appearance, and are clean and
neat There is the usual array Of
vaudeville, and scenic shows with a
picture show; two places of fun called
Bum Fizzle" and 'Giggle Alley" the
latter very much like the "Katzen-
TANNER kastle" of last years street
carnival.
In addition to the percentage shows
there is the regulation Ferris wheel,
propelled by its noisy gasoline engine,
and the "steeple chase" which is the
fancy name for a fancy merry go
round.
The percentage shows occupy the
north and west sides of the canvas
walled enclosure, and all of them are
what would be called respectable.
There was no attempt made in any of
those in which women performed last
night to be smutty, either in dress or
by action.
The most important of the percen-
tage shows is the Stadium, which is
in miniature one-ring circus, with
circus acts. 1t gives but two perform
ances daily, at 4o'clock in the afternoon
and at 9 O'CLOCK in the evening.
The Edison's Kinodrome is one Of
the very excellent shows Of the carni-
val. 1t is a moving picture show
where a vast number of fine views of
the San Francisco ruins are shown.
Others down along the line are the
Navajo Girls" vaudeville show, of
song and dance people and living pic
lures; Rosa Lee a serpentine and
fire dance show with some moving
pictures; the Minnie Ha- Ha" show of
optical illusions put on in connection
with d farce, and the Southern Plan
tation Negroes, colored vaudeville
show. In addition there are the Bum
Fizzle" and "Giggle Alley" fortune
teller or two, ard the usual refresh
ment and other stands intended to sep
arate the spender from his change.
1t it Estimated about 500 paid admis-
sion at the gate. The grounds are
open afternoon and evening, when
performances are given.

LOVE LETTERS in COURT.
Twenty Burning Love Missives Read
as Evidence in Tart lie Case.

Twenty Burning Love Missives Reac
as Evidence in Hartje Case.
/ Pittsburg, July 3.-No sensation
which ever has occurred in a divorce
trial in the Pittsburg courts equalle6
that which developed in the case OF
Augustus Hartje against his wife
With her cheeks paling and blazing by
turns, Mrs. EIartje sat inl the court
room and heard res,d twenty letters
which her husband alleges, were writ
ten by her to Thomas Nadine, the Irish
coachman, whom Hartje has named as
co respondent
The letters We're filled with the most
loving sentiments, breathing passion
ate regard in every sentence, assuring
the coachman of the writer's undying
love; that she had left her husband
for him. and would never love anyone
else. She accused him of growing cold
toward her. but said her heart was on
fire with love for him and always
would be So
Interspersed with all these loving
messages was much practical advice,
such as admonishing him to be careful
about brushing the horse dust out Of
his hair, not to neglect his bath, to put
talcum powder on his feet and be sure
and change his socks daily. The
crowd in the court room wanted to
laugh. But Judge Frazer suppressed
all levity. He looks upon this as a
tragedy, not comedy.
The libellant rested his case on the
reading of the letters. and the defense
is now on. After sitting all day. hear
ing those letters read, Mrs Hartje went
on the stand cool. collected, not shak-
en- particle by the terrible ordeal she
had passed thru.
She denies authorship of the let
ters.
The defense will seek to prove that
they are forgeries.
The case has become more perplexing
than ever. Hartje evidently is not
satisfied. His lean. cadaverous face
was more drawn yesterday after those
letters were read than at any time
since the trial began and yet the let
tiers. if he proves them genuine, viii.
gain him the liberty he seeks and the
control of the children the woman loves
as she loves her life.

were about to return from their Euro

and not let Hartje see him going
aboard the boat. After getting safely
aboard his directions for the evening
are as follows:
II will wait until know he is in
bed. Then you be around the door
Just be there sitting some place, and
when you see me follow right after me,
but not too close. If there is no one
in the hall just turn right in my door"
There has been much testimony dur
ing the trial to show that the Hartjes
occupied separate rooms on the Baltic
returning from Europe. In another
letter it speaks of sending him some
money (this is; on board the boaD, and
says:
BE very saving of this, for dear
knows what may happen before you
are safe in my arms again. Go to bed
early and take good care of yourself.
I got down on my knees and prayed
that we might be aboard this boat to-
night"

Enumeration Of the School Children of
the City Shows a Total Of 1896, an
Increase Of Seventy Five Over Last
Year.

The taking of the school census has

121. OF the total Of 1916, there are

the count showed 1869 boys, and 1862

greater had the school census been
taken the same time this year as it
was last. Last year the count was
made in September, but the new school
law compelled the secretary to have
the census completed this year by
