CHOLERA AMONG HOGS
Disease Develops in Several Herds
Owned by Farmers Near This City
Caused by Excessive Rains and the
Drinking Of Impure Water.

REPORTS received at the packing
houses of Britain & Co, indicate that
hog cholera prevails among herds near
this city. The disease, however, seems
to be of a mild form and treatment
has been commenced which is believed
will be effective. While hogs in sew
eral herds have been i'll, the animals
for the most part have recovered and
some owners believe the disease is
something elses
Mr. j. F. Yetley, who resides just
northeast of the city, has lost five or
six animals by the disease. He was
fortunate, however, in having disposed
of his old hogs before there was OPP
portunity for contagion. He has sixty
or more pigs, to which he is apply
ing medicine recommended by the
government.
Mr.. Yetley is of the opinion that
the disease is caused by the excessive
hot weather and the drinking water
from stagnant pools. The heavy rains
have caused water to stand in the
yards, and the weather being hot, the
animals drink this water in preference
to walking to the troughs for clean
water l.a2ss ,.,.e..ss5.,...
MI Click IS also of the opinion that
this condition is responsible for the
outbreak of the disease.

Wealthy st. Anthony Farmer,
Defendant in Damage Suit,
Says It's a Conspiracy
wIFE,s AFFECTION ALlENATED
George w. Dewey is Plaintiff in
Somewhat Sensational Suit, and T. G..
Andrews is Named as Defendant
Allegations Set Forth by Dewey in
the Petition Filed in Court.

What is alleged by the defendant
to be conspiracy and blacknalllhs
scheme is a suit filed in the district
court in which T. c.. Andrews, veal
thy farmer of Liberty township. near
St. Anthony, is charged with having
had illegitimate relations with the wife
of George w. Dewey and to have alien
ated the affections of Mrs. Dewey and
caused her to leave her husband.
Mr.. Andrews, who owns "a farm of
200 acres, employed Dewey in 1903 to
assist in the work, and Dewey and
his family occupied tenant residence
on the farm. Plaintiff Dewey, in his
petition, makes the allegation that Mr..
Andrews made immoral advances to
his wife, and in time, by artitice and
undue influence, accomplished his pur-
pose. The allegation is also made
that as a result of his relations thus
established and which continued for
some time, an illegitimate child was
born in 1906 The plaintiff alleges
further that his wife, on first being ac-
cused of her intimacy with Andrews,
denied the charge, but later mace
confession of her guilt.
The petition recites that plaintiff
has been under great expense III pay
ing physicians bills during the illness
Of his wife, and has expended large
sums in the care and support of the
child; that finally, in May Of the pres
ent. year, Mrs. Dewey deserted him.
Because of the expense and for alien
ating his wifes affection, Dewey asks
judgment for damages in the sum Of
$4,000 and costs of suit.
Mr.. Andrews has engaged an attor-
ney to defend against the suit. While
the answer to the petition has not yet
been filed, the attorney says that the
defense will allege conspiracy to ex-
tort money from the defendant

LOCAL COMMENT

This is the year of all years that
Marshall county farmers can afford
to improve their buildings. Lumber
may be cheaper when hard times
come, but it will be much harder to
get.
When a man knows that his job is
in danger unless he makes extraor-
binary efforts it is sometimes astonish-
ing what work he can do. This applies
to ball players-and the rest of us.
When Marshalltown men hold back
and insist that so far as their aid is
walk or else ride in a Marshalltown
buggy, the civic spirit is at work which
will build up a great town.
What is the matter with Marshall
town manufacturers erecting a perma-
nent exhibition building at the state
fair grounds with mammoth sign on
top made In Marshalltown"? The
buggy company has leased building
there for two years and will exhibit
two car loads of vehicles. The Len
nox Machine Company always shows
it's gasoline engines. The Lennox
Furnace Company Always has an in
teresting furnace exhibit. If MARSHALL
town had a permanent building, and
her oil company, h-i' pickle factory,
bridge foundry, dlror forge factory,
steam traps, governors, farmers FORCES.
packing house products, lighting ma
chimes and others could all exhibit in
one building, the retail merchants as
sociation could we'll afford to hire the
Marshalltown band for week Count
less thousands would come to the Mar
shalltown exhibit, numberless columns
of newspaper space .rould boom it and
tho advertising woula be worth all it
cost.
The recent agitation over alleged
neglect of Canada thistles and other
noxious weeds, brought out COM
plant from some residents of the out
lying streets. The complaint however
was more in the nature of suggestion
than complaint. On all the streets
farthest out there are many vacant
lots, most of them owned by men en-
tlrely able to improve them and being
held for the inevitable rise that
comes as the street is built up and inn
proved. The complaint is that these
lots are neglected, that weeds in many
instances cover them and line the
walks in front. Next door, perhaps
homeowner keeps his lawn and park
ing neat with mover and dandelion
knife and across the street another
homemaker faces the weedy wilder
ness of the vacant lot that some spec
ulative owner is holding until the neat
ness and general desirabiity of the
neighborhood tempts buyer to pay
him a good profit on the investment.
To the men who are trying to build
UP neighborhood by improvements
there is something in this dog in the
manger policy Of the vacant lot owner
that stirs to rage. Why he shouldn't
keep weeds down. and his walks de-
Gently free from snow in winter. they
fail to understand. But he doesn't do

Standing of the Clubs.

About the worst piece OIL news liiit
trickled over the wires into Oskaloosa
last night was that the Quakers had
been down to in the postponed bout.
The locals squelched the aspirations OF
the tall Mr.. Patterson, and during the
process gave Mr.. Shaw a beating of
the first water. The shock to the few
visiting faithful from Oskaloosa was
indeed great. BY amassing two sim
giles in the opening round, and because
of couple of pooh pooh plays at about
the same time, the exasperated Quak-
ers escaped shut-out.
Because of defeat No. the local ath-
letes are, now in hot pursuit of Mr..
Patterson's men. A wildly enthusiasts
tic crowd of 433 persons, not including
those visitors tore its hair when the
locals tied the score and took the lead
in the second Outbreaks of clamor-
Gus applause marked each of the locals
scoresome efforts.
The pitching of Mr. Dick, who never
fails to make hit with the crowd, had
the Quakers baffled and keen support
after the opening inning made things
even tighter While Dick had nothing
fancy in the way of strikeouts he was
steady and effective, almost all the
time. Much gratitude is also due the
lean finger for his timely soak in the
second inning which tied Ythe sepre..
also for his hits later that helped ma
terially in increasing the lead. In fact.
it was the tail-enders of the list who
took large hand in the beating OF
the opposing twirler, altho all the caste
got in on the hitting. While Mr.. Shaw
was bumped copiously, he stood the
gait we'll, and was game to the finish.
In spots he was brilliant, notably-fn the
second, when, after getting his first
clouting, he famed the entire outfit,
including Mr.. Brown.
After the fourth inning the game was
all for the Brownies, with never a
doubt as to the outcome. To Mr..
Thomas is due the credit of opening
the batting rally in the second, that
put crinp in the visiting pack. Gift
items bunt forced him at second. Krue-
ger lined out a two-bagger and Dick
scored both with a drive to the left
field fence. Kensel missed Spencer's
grounder, and Dick dug for home, beat
ing the throw. Long and continued
applause Nothing doing in Oskaloo-
sa's delegation. Giffen cracked open
the fourth with hit over first for two
bases. Bockewitz and Kruger sim
gled, Giffen counting. Dick unlocked
a single, the other two coming home.
Thomas single, Giffen's sacrifice and
Krueger's hit Melted another in the
seventh Dicks second double, and
Browns 2-bagger in the eighth chas-
ed home another, and the last. After
the first inning the Quakers never
came closer than landing on third once,
to scoring. The we'll satisfied populace
was piling out of the grand stand in
the ninth when Mite broke out with
a double. Shaw hit to Williams. who,
aided by Giffen, took after the catcher
to down him between second and third.
He got past Kruger, who had closed
in for the finish, but Shaw had strayed
off first, and "Hinie'' and Thomas
edged in on him. In the meantime
Mite lit out for third again. Williams

him The ecora in detail.
