"The growing child especially needs
those elements that are found in whole
grain preparations" says the writer of
recent magazine article on The
Best Foods for Growing Children
Malta Vita is the perfect whole
wheat food. rich in every nutritive
element demanded by the body of the
child and just as healthful and
strengthening for the child's parents
and older sisters and brothers. Being
pure grain product simply the
whole of the best white wheat and a
little salt, mixed with pure barley
malt extract-MataV Vita supplies the
body with all those food elements
which make bone. blood. muscle and
brain and bring perfect health.
The malt extract is added after the
wheat has been thoroughly cooked and
steamed and converts the starch of the
wheat into maltose or malt sugar,
which is highly nutritious and easily
assimilated even by very weak stom-
achs. Physicians recommend maltese
for its strength giving qualities and
Malta-Vita is rich in it. After being
treated with the malt extract, the

Won Hoesen of Brooklyn. n. Y, who
died there at the age of 80 years two
months ago. The estate is estimated
at S1,5O0,000 in money.
The startling news, which was who'll
ly unexpected, came to Mrs. George
Haynes, niece of the deceased, Sun
day morning in the form of letter
from an attorney who is set

moderate means. The husband Of Mrs.
Barbour and Flavius Haynes are en-
ployed as trainmen on the Northwest

mer previous to moving to the city.
The letter which will be sent to the
Brooklyn attorney apprising him of the
whereabouts of the heirs so far as this
branch of the family is concerned will
be hastily prepared 1t will carry in
no unmistakable terms that the afore-
said heirs and heiresses are here and

1t is stated upon good authority that
the Upton Canning company, now To-
Gated at Upton. Iowa, is seriously
thinking of moving it's plant to Iowa
City. Several pieces of land are be-

factory, including one in East Iowa
City and another one short distance
north OF the city limits. The factory
is said to employ in the neighborlood

resertative j. P. Conner, two young
men giving their names as A. B. Mack,
aged 10, of Pittsburg. Iowa. and James
Milne, aged II, of Chicago, are held to
await their hearing on Wednesday in
this place. They were brought before
a justice of the peace, but the devel-
opments in their case were such as to
make it seem advisable to defer the
hearing.
In addition to the appropriation OF
man Conner, the young men are ac-
cused Of the burglary on Saturday
night OF the Broadway grocery store at
this place, in which tobacco and canned
goods were taken, some of these being
recovered in the Conner home, where
the youngsters had made their
bivouae.
Two men answering to their de-
scription are also wanted in Dewitt

lace, a diamond brooch and ear rings
and other valuables were taken, ar

are in washington and when they are
away their beautiful home stands idle
with nc occupants, Raymond. the only
child of Mr.. Conner, is in Denison at
tending school here, but is staying at
the Merchants hotel. but Sunday he
went down to the house and noticed
that things had been disturbed and
in the evening laid in wait to see who
was frequenting the house, but after
waiting until midnight he went
to his room in the hotel after finding
no new clue. Yesterday noon dep
uty marshal went down to the house
and found two young men lying on
quilts and other bedding before a fire
place wherein they had built nice fire.
Upon search it vas found that they
had stolen numerous articles and that
they were genuine crooks. Most of the
articles found on them consisted OF
jewelry in the line of a gold watch and
chain, watch fob, earrings, necklace
and articles along this line. 1t was
found that they had cut hole in the
back door and lifted the latch and af-
ter entering they had no trouble in
going and coming from the house as
they pleased. They had made use of
the house as though it was theirs,
they had taken bedding down, before
the fire place and had eataIbles of many
kinds with them and apparently We're
not in want for anything in the line of
eatables or comfort. 1t seems that
they would prowl around nights and
steal and toward morning return to
the Conner house and sleep in the day
time. They were safely lodged in the
county Jail and will have their hearing
Wednesday,.
