light, and warnings are being sent
forth from here warning farmers and
land spectators to beware of the con-
tracts offered by the company for sig
nature, and which were exposed in dis
patches from this place few days
ago.
The following agreement is the one
made by the Algona company with the
local land agent who is to go out into
the country and induce farmers to sign
contract which he believes expresses
simply his willingness to sell. The
contract:
"Algona, Iowa. Dear Sir: Your let

ceived and after making inquiry find
that you are we'll recommended. We
enclose circular which will explain the
real estate business. We are sending
you under separate cover a package Of
application blanks which you are to use
in listing farms. 1t has been the habit
of real estate companies to charge, at
the time of listing, a retaining fee.
However, we are expecting to do big
business during the next few months
and so you need not charge any retains
ing fee whatever. List the farm free of
charge, and be sure to make an (X) In
the blank space to show that no money
has been paid.
"A great many of the people who are
buying farms now are spectators, and
SO it is not necessary that the owner
must agree to give possession of the
place right away. If you can list the
place at a fair price and the owner will
give possession by March l, 1908. that
will be all right. When we think we
have good chance to make good deal
and we write you what we want, we
want you to hustle and find it. Don't
wait until the weather is better, or UNI
til the roads are better, or until this or
that happens, but get right out and
work. OF course, we want you to list
every farm you can find so that we will
know what is for sale, but when we.
write for something special don't waste
too much time in talking to man who
has farm for sale unless it is just
what we want. Do not tell every Tom,
Dick and Harry about the farms you
list, keep the business to yourself. Do
not try to do business with three or
four men around. The best way is to
go to the farm, then you can see the
place and do business with the owner.
We want to get all the farms listed
before the farmers know of the advance

Webster City, Feb. 1S.-Edward
Lemke has been given his first bath in
thirty years. Lemke is the aged miser
and recluse who for the last forty
years has lived in filthy howell east
of this city and who a few days ago
was found dying of cold and hunger III
u reeking hole under his shack,
and was by his son and daugh-
ter. Fred Lemke. of Chicago, and
Mrs. Fredericka Lemke of Des Moines.
The old man struggled when he was
led into the bath room and he realized
what was to be done, but his weakened
condition would not permit him to
make much resistance.
Lemke is short and stopped. When
he was undressed it was found that ne
had taken off no underclothing for
years. AS the garments became worn
he would cover them with new ones.
He had on several undershirts and eight
pairs of drawers liz various stages of
disintegration. A number of under
shirt neckbands were found round his
neck. The shirts had actually rotted
away until no other vestige of them
remained.
During his forty years residence a
mile from here Lemke has spent prac-
tically no money. He came frequently
to town to pick up his food in alleys,
back yards and other places where he
could find the discarded edibles of the
townspeople. Things Of value as well
as any worthless articles, he picked up
in his rovings and carried to his hovei.
1t stands in the center of dense
thicket. The shack is almost ready to
fall to pieces with age. The window
panes were broken out years ago.
The front door has dropped to pieces
and a few rotten boards have been
propped up in front of the doorway.
Near the house stands a small wagon
shed with a small wagon beneath It.
Both have dropped to pieces with age
and look as If the slightest breath
would blow them away. Another shed
is filled with numerous barrels OF cobs.
reels OF barbed wire, old wagon wheels
and packing waste picked UP along the
railroad track. The house was found
SO filled with truck picked up by the
old man that it was impossible to pene-
trate more than four feet towards the
center. Without exaggeration it may
be said that it is next to impossible to
name an article commonly known
which cannot be found in the old house.
Mrs. Fredericka Lamke. daughter of
the old man, took him to Des Moines
after having him dressed in new suit
of clothes. The opinion is that the old
man is mentally deranged and an at
tempt will be made to have guardian
appointed for him.
He has $1,000 in bank here and is
believed to have thousands hidden
somewhere about his howell. He re-
fuses to discuss the matter. He has
enriched himself by various real es-
tate deals and by the purchase Of tax
titles.

WANT TOWN TO CHANGE NAME
Webster City People Believe Webster
Is Nuisance.

0pcCldl 10 llulcS.NNe PuUAASel.
Webster City, Feb. 1S.-Webster
City, Hamilton county, or Webster,
Keokuk county. ought to change its
name. This appears to be the consen-
sus of opinion of Webster City business
men who are now formulating plans to
accomplish the change of the name Of
one of the cities.
The reason for desiring the change
is that the similarity of the names Of
the two places results, and for years
has resulted, in great inconvenience to
the business men of both. Mail mat
ter addressed to Webster City parties
is continually being sent to Webster,
and vice versa. 1t is no unfrequent
occurrence for express packages and
freight shipments to be missent in the
same manner. Many of the shipments
by freight and express are of much
value and it is often important to the
addresses to secure them at the ear
Hest possible moment.
