IMPORTS HIS OWN TEA.
Olson, the Grocer, Makes Notable
Move in Business.

Move in Business.
To the Tea Drinkers of Marshalltown
and Vicinity:
For the first time since ! have
started in the grocery business, have
been able to import my own teas Last
spring I placed my order with one OF
the largest importers Of this country,
for a large quantity Of Japan tea,
the best that cash, money could buy.
I have just received the samples of
my purchase and can truthfully state
that they far excel any teas have had
heretofore.
These teas will arrive about Sept.
list, when ! will place them on sale
at such prices as will command the
attention of all the tea drinkers. For
the information of my patrons as to
why the quality f,these teas is super
Tor to others being imported, will state
that my importer controls all the teas
grown in a certain portion of Japan.
This particular portion holds the same
relation in producing high grade goods
as Minnesota and Dakota do to other
states in producing high grade wheat.
Therefore you can readily see why
dwell on their good qualities.
We personally guarantee them to be
first crop pickings and free from any
adulteration.
Remember we give no prizes with
our teas but give the consumer the
value in good teas at the same price
that you would pay for an inferior
article. GEO. A. OLSON,
- 121 West Main.

FIRST WARD SEWER
Streets and Alleys and Sewage Dis-
posal Committees to Build Joint
Sewer Which First Ward Citizens
Have Wanted for Years.

After pleading for a storm and san
itary sewer for years residents of the
First ward living on Lee. Union and
Swayzie streets are at last to have
their prayer granted. BY resolution
the city council Friday night ordered a
twelve-inch sewer, connecting with the
Marion street sewer and running to
Sixth avenue and Lee streets, to be
built Connecting sewers which will
drain into 1t will be also laid on
Swayzie and Lee streets.
The sewer is to be a joint one. of
sufficient size to carry the surface
water which periodically floods the
cellars of the neighborhood, and to
take care of the sewage Of the district.
Tn the building of 1t the streets and
alleys and the sewerage and sewage
disposal committees will join, forces
The only question with the council
was whether or not the money to be
spent in building it could be equit-
ably divided and charged against the
separate funds. This being thought to
be easily possible the resolution was
passed. The estimated cost is about
50 900

screamed with fright, and the thief,
with one leap, was out Of the window,
which opened onto the porch, and was
gone. For two hours the family made
an unsuccessful attempt to get the
central office to notify the police. They
finally concluded that the telephone
wires had been cut, which was not,
however, the case 1t was after be-
fore the police We're notified.
The thief got into the house by re-
moving a screen of the window thru
which he escaped. He had taken Mr..
Crinklaw's trousers from the bed room,
where they had been left, into the
dining room, where he turned the pock-
cts inside out. There We're no valu-
ables in the garment, and nothing was
taken from the house. The family be-
lieves that the thief had been in the
house but a short time.

George Herman Charges Elk
Mayor With Assault and Bat
tery--Pierce Arraigned
PIERCE OBJECTS TO TALK
Exception is Taken to Statement Made
in Council Meeting by Councilman
Herman - Pierce Admits That He
Struck Him or Tried To = Says Al
legation Made by Herman is Untrue.

+. G.. Pierce, ex-mayor and a well
known politician of the city, was halied
into Justice Millard's court this morn
Ing to answer to charge of assault
and battery, filed by Councilman
George Herman, of the Fourth ward.
Herman alleges in his information that
Pierce struck him with his fist late
Saturday afternoon. Pierce entered a
plea of not guilty, but the time for
hearing had not been set up to this
afternoon.
The alleged assault, which Pierce did
not deny to Times Republican re-
porter was caused by a statement
made in Friday nights council meet
ing by Herman. This SO euraged
Pierce that when he and Herman met
on East Main street Saturday hot
words speedily followed. Then Pierce
struck, or attempted to strike, the
councilman. Herman was apparently
uninjured by the. blow and made no eff
fort to retaliate.
Said Pierce Wanted Money.
1t was during the discussion of The
Mcdonald resolution, authorizing the
mayor to make settlement of the glu-
cose company's case against the city.
that Herman gave utterance to the
statement relative to Pierce. He said
that he was informed that Pierce had
said that he (Pierce) would testify in
the city's behalf in the case provided
fee OF 500 was forthcoming.
Pierce Denies 1t.
This morning Pierce denied ever
for money In any way relative to his
connection as witness in the case. He
branded 1t all as false. He did say
however that he had offered his help to
the council in gathering evidence In ana
preparing the case, provided the coun :,
Gil would pass resolution saying that
the contract between the city and glu-
cose company, on which the suit Is
based, was in the possession of the city
clerk The resolution was prepared by
Pierce, but was not adopted by the
council. A resolution passed some
time ago by the city council declared
the contract to be missing.
Pierce said he did not know whether
he hit Herman or not, but he tried to,
and If he did he hit him on the Jaw
He said he only struck once, and as he
left the place, Herman, in threatening
him with arrest, hurled oaths after
him.
