BURGLARS ON CLAY HILL
ENTER SEVERAL HOUSES AND STEAL
CONSIDERABLE PROPERTY.
Several Homes Visited by Burglars. Evi.
IDENTIFY People Acquainted With Neigh
borhood. Who Steal Money. Cloth.
ing. Eatables. Revolvers, Etc.

The people living few miles north
of the city on Clay Hill hare since
last week Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings, been loading up
with revoivers. shot-guns, etc.. hop
ing that the burglars who visited their
homes ON these nights will call
around again, so as to give them an
opportunity to fill them with lead.
The first suspicion of there being
something wrong was on Monday eve-
ming, when Jos. Rastetter's family
heard people prowling about the yard
on Monday night, but missed nothing.
They secured two revolvers and placed
them in the bureau drawer in their
bedroom, aud the next night the burg
lars relieved them of the revolvers.
On Tuesday night they made regu-
lar roundup. At George Fryes they
stole all the eggs they could find
about the place. At Charles Brog-
hammers they entered his house, going
through his overalls. hut were evil
IDENTIFY frightened away before they
found anything of value, for nothing
was missed. Mrs. Broghammer
awoke just as they left the room.
At Jos. Rastetter's they stole lot of
things from the pantry, and also two
revolvers, as noted above, one of which
was found the next day in the road
between Rastetter's and Bert Tyler s.
On Wednesday evening they re-
turned to the home of Jos. Rastetter.
but were frightened away before
taking anything. The same night
they went to the home of Mrs George
Tyler. who was surprised to waken
and find two men in her bedroom,
searching the dresser. They also en-
tered the sleeping-r room of her son
Will, who was home from California
visiting her. and stole from him a
suit of clothes, fifty dollars in money,
and gold watch and chain. They
also secured some silverware, etc.
from the house, in all amounting tt
about $500 worth.
Going over to the home of John
Barthell. they entered his room and
gave him chloroform, or some sort OF
anaesthetic, so that he did not walker
until ten O'Clock the next morning,
helping themselves to various thing:
about the place.
At Will Browns and Ben Jaastad's
they searched about the yards, but
took little if anything of value.
A large number of matches were
used by them at each place. and theiI
actions give every evidence of being
amateurs at the business, many believ'
ing that they were people who live
not far away from the scene of theil
depredations.
During the same night thieves went
to the home of Rev. Bakken in Glen
wood township and entering his house
through the cellar stole various arti
cles. Besides what they secured il
the house they stole butter and cream
from the cream house. and some fort,
or fifty chickens At MIR. Nerli's the,
stole his flock of chickens. new hat
pair of shoes, etc.

IOWA'S SAD PLIGHT.

If the last two legislatures could re-
convene and undo half the work they
did it would be blessing. The state
is in regular uproar over the child
labor. teachers examinations and pri-
mary election law. The idea seemed
to possess the st. te that every thing
that did not suit us could be regulated
by law. The state superintendent
was allowed to roam the corridors
and tell the solons that his office could
examine teachers better than could
the county superintendent and that
his scheme would take the matter out
OF politics. AS result, his office has
been filled the past month and will
the month TO come with what are
called readers" probably Tor want
CT better name, and they have thrown
the teachers of the state into an up
roar. 1t seems that every question
must be answered to nicely or the
papers will be rejected. The primary
law is the conception of lot of re-
formers who are bound to head off
their politi al opponents. Changes
were rung on that awful word "poli-
ticians, - and we were told that no
mora would the dear people be bother
ed by bosses" Now no one seems
to understand the law and the "bos-
ses' are busy concocting schemes
making it impossible for more than
one mal of any particular clique or
ring to appear upon the ballot, and
also TO COMPEL the defea ted candidate
on strength of party loyalty to accept
the result of vote upon United States
senator no matter how corrupt the
vote may have been at the so-called
primary. The idle rich women of the
state infested the lobbies of the legis-
lative halls and prevailed upon the
solons TO pass law making it an
offence If a boy under IA accepted pay
for work and placing penalty upon
any man who paid him. This law
looked innocent enough until vacation
came and the boys started after work.
Now the state is in an uproar because
some of the employers and some
parents have been arrested hauled be.
fore court and fined. Money was
placed in the hands OF the labor com.
missioner and he is determined to en-.
force it and simply says if the law il
bad. repeal it. Today thousands OF
boys between 10 and IA years of age
are roaming the streets because the
law seems determined to breed an
army of idlers. What the state needs
is good long rest from Legislative
session, and it gives one a chill tc
think another one will be in session
in little over a year and the good
Lord himself cannot predict what il
will do. -vinton Eagle.

No town will become a good busi-
ness center so long as its business men
rely on few merchants to make the
effort to bring trade to town. Too
often the men in few lines of trade
are about the only ones that reach out
after custom. Other merchants wait
until these men induce the people to
come to town and content themselves
with trade that naturally drifts to
their place. A public spirited man
should ask hiraself il he is doing his
part to attract people to come to town
to trade, in helping the entire bust
ness community, and no town is sue
cess unless all lines are working to
extend the trade as far as possible and
trying to bring a larger territory in
the circles in which the town is the
business center.

The people of Iowa pay annually III
road and bridge taxes over "a, 200. 600
This sum is in addition to the poll
tax. 1t is probable that the total an.
nual expenditures for road purposes
are between 81, 500. 900 and $1,000, 000-
This sum of expenditure is equal to
one-half the expenditure of the entire
state government. 1t is estimated that
Iowa has approximately 100, coo miles
of country roads and that at an ex-
pensc of s. per mile, or total OF
$500, 0c0 per year. these roads could be
main aimed in good condition during
almost the entire year by the proper
and systematic use of the road drag.
If our road work were systematized
and conducted bv responsible men
$3.50, O0C could be expended each year
to better advantage as regards results
than the total expenditure of over
eight times that amount. These facts
are CLEANED from an address delivered
by Director A. Marston of the Iowa
highway commission, at the Good
Roads School of Instruction at
Council Bluffs.

1t was thought few years ago that
the limit had been reached in the
construction of sky-scrapers" in the
congested portions of the large cities.
But the necessity of securing the
greatest possible amount of floor space
in the least possible area or ground
steadily pushes the great buildings
further upward toward the sky. The
great Singer office building in New
York city now under course OF con-
struction will make the many other
high buildings of the great American
metropolis look insignificant beside
it. The big tower which extends
above the IA story structure has al
ready reached height of over 800
feet, and when complete will be 6l2
feet high. it's foundation being only SO
feet square. 1t will be forty-nine
stories, high. 742 feet from the base
ment to the top of the flagstaff. There
will be o Il acres of floor space in the
building, and it will accommodate
about 5000 people, nearly twice as
many as there are living in Decorah.

the building. and there will be twenty
elevators in it. 1t is great under
taking from an engineering stand
point, the most interesting feature
being the means adopted for resisting
the great wind pressure. which al
times reaches a velocity of 90 to 4
miles an hour.

man at Times.
From the Manchester Chronicle.

From the Manchester Chronicle.
The fact that Queen Maud of Norway
is called Harry in her own family has
gone the round of the press and some
writer's have gone so far as to express
surprise at royalty sanctioning the use
of nicknames which these publicists
seem to think undignlfed.
Is t too much to expect royalty never
to unbend and become human? The very
limited choice of names that appear for
use at the christening of a baby Prince
or Princess is really very good reason
why royal families should have pet
names among themselves.
Almost without exception English
Princesses are named either Victoria,
Alexandra. Louise. Mary or Maud. Among
Princes Albert has been most popular,
while Alfred, Edward. George and Fred
erick practically exhaust the list
Among the German Emperors family,
Wilhelm and Frederick for the sons, Vic
toria, -Nexandrina and Margaret for the
daughters are as usual as Olga, AleNan-
dra, Nicholas, Michael and Alexander in
the imperial family of Russia.
The adoption of nicknames in our own
royal family was only part of the sim
pie, humanizing methods of education and
upbrluging instituted by Queen Victoria
and the Prince Consort. The Queen her
self had never known the true JOYS OF
family and nursery life in its best sense.
and she was always anxious that the
young days of her children should be as
happy and unsophisticated as those OF
any among her subjects.
Since his accession the nursery name OF
s''rum-Tum'' has been allowed to lapse,
but to this day King Edward is known
To his royal consort and his nearer rela-
tives as "Bertie." while many young
