Story City Branch Many Years.

A telegram received this forenoon
death in ST. Mary's hospital, at 8
o'clock this morning of John Bell, q
well known Iowa Central engineer of
this city. The telegram came from
Miss Alice Gardiner, stepdaughter of
the deceased, who had been with her
father ever since he underwent sur
gical operation at the hospital last
Monday
Mr. Bells death was not a great
surprise, altho TO his many friends
the news will also prove shock, for
hope had been held out for his recov-
cry, despite the fact that his condi-
ton was known to be critical.
Mr.. Bell is survived by two children,
Ruth and Lelie Bell, of this city, and
three stepchildren, Miss Maude Gardi-
ner, of Minneapolis; Miss Alice Card
iner who has kept house for her father
since her mothers death four years
ago, and George Gardiner, of this city.
Miss Maude Gardiner did not reach
Rochester from Minneapolis, until
after her fathers death.
John Bell was one of the Oldest en-
gineers on the Central, and had had a
passenger run on the Story City branch
for many years.
The body will be brought to this
city for interment, and is expected
either this evening or tomorrow morn
ing.

New goods are arriving every day

things for those who failed to get
just what they wanted. For instance
one large manufacturer sent Hellberg
large order in addition to what He'll
berg had previously ordered. He did
this because he had confidence that
Hellberg would do what was right
and proper, and because his experience
with Hellberg was such as to lead
him to believe that he would appre-
ciate and that his trade would aD-
preciate the new goods, some of which
were of special design Everyone can
