Supervisors Hear Attorneys on Closing
Of Timber Creek Road.
The board of supervisors, which be-
gan the work of its regular May ses-
sion Monday, heard attorneys repre-
senting claimants and the county over
an alteration resulting from the clos
ing of certain piece of private road
in Timber Creek township. The con-
troversy began between two neighbors,
Doud and Hilsabeck, and resulted In
Doud closing road that led past his
place to the Hilsabeck farm, on the
ground and it was private property,
and had never been a public highw way.
It seems that as the road had been
used by the public for a great many
years, the supervisors deemed that 1t
was not right to lose it. and therefore
passed resolution at the last meeting
ordering Doud to reopen it. Doud en-
ployed counsel to present his claims
before the board. He alleges that the
road is private property and that he
has a right to close it. An effort is
being made by the board to bring the
Interested parties together and sue
ceeded within $50 Of a compromise
Monday. If this can be done there will
probably be no litigation, but If 1t
proves that the parties can't get to-
gether suit will probably result.
The board did but little else Mon
day except allow an unusually large
number of bills.

Two Million Little
Children Starving
Poor and Rich Alike Suffer From Lack
Of Good Food.

We notice that John Spargo. in his
new book, 1.-The Bitter Cry of the Chill
dren," says no less than two million
American children between the ages of
five and fourteen are victims of chron-
ic under-feeding.. They are the easy
prey of disease, nervous, irritable,
weakened both physically and mentally
and unfit for that perfect development
which Nature intended for them.
Mr.. Spargo speaks particularly Of the
children of the poor, but what he says
is, in thousands of cases, true of the
children of the wealthy and the COM
fortably well-to-do. Many children who
have "all they can eat" are really un-
derfed. For the food which they are
given is not food from which they can
get the nutrition they need.
There is no other food, so far as we
know, so nutritious. so strengthening,
for children as Malta-Vita, the perfect
matted whole wheat food. This is not
only because Malta-Vita is so rich in
all the nutrition the body needs for
sustaining health and strength. More
important by far is the fact that the
nutrition of the matted wheat is SO
easily digested and assimilated that all
its life-giving elements are taken up
by the system, forming rich, red blood
in abundance and giving growth and
vigor to body and brain. Malta-Vita
is insurance of perfect health for chill
dren And it is; so good to eat!

decided this morning to postpone the

1t would be wiser to wait until tomor-

Away at st. Johnsbury, VI.
A telegram received in the city this
morning by Messrs A. r. and P. S.
Balch, Of the Marshalltown State Bank,
announces the death of their father,
Mr.. John w. Balch, at st. Johnsbury,
VT. Mr.. Balch's death was very sud
den, and was probably due to heart
trouble, with which he has been suf-
fering since severe illness of pneu-
monia last winter At that time
it was not thought Mr. Balch could
possibly survive, and his son, Mr.. A.
F. Balch was with him from early in
March.
The elder Mr.. Balch had many
friends in this city, where he has Wis
tied at his sons homes great many
times. His last trip to the city was a
year ago last winter Mr.. Balch was
a native of Concord, N. H., and was 81
years of age. For forty years he has
been resident Of st. Johnsbury, where
he was engaged in the manufacturing
business until his retirement about
fifteen years ago. Mr.. Balch was con-
nected for many years with the firm
of Ely, Balch & Co., manufacturers OF
steel hoes, forks and rakes.
Mr.. Balch is survived by his wife
and the two sons in this city. Mr.. p.
s. Balch and wife will leave tonight
at 1885 for st. Johnsbury, where they
will arrive Friday morning. The fun
eral arrangements wil~sot be made
