ST VALENTINES DAY
Letter Carriers Were Loaded
 Down With Extra Mall.

St Valentine Is king to-day and the mail man from the early morn ing hours was loaded down with val entines, as an unusually large num- Der was handled at the post ofice. Although the comic valentine Is not so prevalent as a few years ago. :he little cards so full of sentiment sent by persons whose hearts are gushing with amorOus feeling are becoming very popular.
 Although 1t was never intended that persons should maltreat the custom of sending valentines by put ting in a mail box some very classi- cal verses written on an excellent quality of paper and containing some beautiful picture, only to find at the bottom few words telling rhe re- ceiver that he is full of yellow juice. It is not many years ago since the residents of this city had a large amount of amusement because of a law suit developing as the result of sending. these valentines which cost 10 cents dozen. But the dealers in the better class of valentines had very good assortments to select iron, and the fellow or girl who could not find the right kind of love message must have been indeed fastidious. The flower stores also knew that to- day was "Val's" day, because they sold few extra punches of violets, roses and carnations, although the chap that really has that deep feeling selected the little blue flower to con- vey we'll, she knew all right. There are several valentine parties arranged for this evening, including that given by the Friendly league in their hall on Leavenworth street, a social by the Y. P. s. c. E. of the First Baptist church, and the valen- tine sale at the Second Congrega- tional church under the auspices of the Mission circle.
 The day is called after St Valen- titus, a Roman martyr, who was killed about the year 270.

Chicago, March 1S.-Judge Macken-
zie Cleland gave his fourth semi
monthly function" Saturday night at
the Maxwell street court.
That AN habitua drunkard can be
reformed was shown when Michael
Kelly, 5S years old, told the judge he
had not taken drink for two weeks.
Instead of drinking a glass of Beer
every two hours during the day the
defendant said he had found a new
drink habit

and l am just as happy" said Kelly.

Yes. your honor, he has not taken
a drink since he was here the last

ways have the coffee kettle on the
stove. and l am now the happlest wife
in Chicago. God bless you, Judge
William Moran, was another alleged
habitual drunkard who declared he
was cured of the habit. He, however.
admitted he had entered saloon, but
this was only to telephone.
Il promised my wife would tele-
phone her twice day SO that she could
see l was sober" said Moran, who is
employed by railroad company
Judge Cleland reprimanled him
mildly. IF you want to telephone to
your wife don't go into saloon. There
are drug storesSnd other places where
there are telephones"
The judge showed his pleasure when
he was told of the reconciliation Of
Louis Stockenberg and his wife. Louise,
who are now living in a newly fur
nished Hat. Stockenberg abandoned
her in Russia and came to his coun-
try. She followed him and found him.
Despite her pleadings he refused to
support her, and she caused his ar
rest.
Stockenberg was stubborn, but when
he was arraigned before Judge Gle
land, two weeks ago, he promised to
live with her again If he was given
an opportunity. The hearing Of the
case waa continued until Saturday
night. When the clerk called Stocken-
berg's name, the defendant appeared
with his wife. The latter was smiling
happily. and in broken English she

yanced in some Of the news dispatches
that Mr. Beverly was killed during a
quarrel He was not of quarrel
some disposition, and it is believed by
the latest disclosures that he was
killed by robbers.
Burdette. who was rice buyer, was
sent by his house from Huston 70
Angleton on February last and on
the 23rd his body was found IN a
BAYOU. The theory of robbery is sub
stantiated by the fate that his watch
coat and other articles were missing.
Burdettes sleeves We're rolled up ana
he had on pair of working gloves, in
dicating that he was engaged IN IN
spection work al the time of the trag-
edy. No marks We're found on the
hoay. The authorities buried Burdette
there. but a friend. learning or tne
mans death, had the body disinterred
and sent to Ackley.
MIR. Burdette was we'll known IN THIS
vicinity. and at one time. prior 10
twelve wears ago. was a resident or
Marshalltown. where he conducted the
Cascade laundry. His mother ana
other relatives reside in AcKley.

Nominees at AckIey
Special to Times-Republican.

Ackley March 1s.-At the citizens
caucus Frank Goettel and H. A. Car
stems were nominated as councilmen to
succeed L. E. Cordes and John R.
Heinz, whose terms soon expire The
two nominees are both prominent
young business men and as it was the
desire of the citizens to nominate en-
ergetic and progressive young men to
take charge of the city's business af-
fairs, much will be expected of them.
AS the old members have both served
on the council for some time, they saw
fit to step aside and permit others to
serve their turn in furthering the inter-
ests Of the town.
II. H. Heetland and Henry Heinold
were elected as school directors to fill
the vacancies caused by j. NJ Nix and
j. U. Johnson. The latter recently
moved to Kanawha. having served but
part of his term.

turaI Student From England.
Special to Times Republican.
Anes, March 1S.-For considerable
time past, the Iowa State College has
classed among her students large
number of young men and women from
foreign Shores but perhaps no school in
the state ever had as high a compile
ment paid to her as was paid to the
college here Saturday by very short
telegram received by Dean Curtiss of
the agricultural department. The mes
sage was dated at London, March 10,
and asked: Can you admit an eighteen
year old boy to your school beginning
April first for one year? Free char
acter guaranteed. Signed, Wray
wrayt" Prof. Curtiss Immediately
wired that he could admit the young
man and he has written Mr.. Wrayt in
full.
This message. coming presumably
from a wealthy Londoner or stockman
wishing to give his son the very best
education, speaks more plainly of the
great work the Iowa State College is
doing than any yet.
