An Editors Tin,

A wife who loves her husband will
not object to cutting his hair every
week or two, instead of every two or
three months. Any man can learn to
shave himself. A box Of backing
costs ten cents, will last months. A
chunk of soap. some hot water and a
rag will take the grease and dirt out
of an old suit of clothes. Most any
man can go to bed an hour sooner
once in ten days and have his wife or
daughter crease his pants. A brush
and a little elbow grease will take the
dust out of ones clothes. Flowers are
thick along the streets and it is q
mighty slow poke who can't swipe a
buttonhole when coming down town.
Of course it costs 10 or Is cents q
week extra to have a nice. clean collar
and cuffs every morning. And there
you are. After all, then, the differ.

At the great Water carnival in Ger
many every year, a feature of the fes-
tival is always furnished by the rival
animal dealers in the old world. The
diving elephants are the supreme carl
of interest at this festival. Captain
Henry Amberg, foreign agent for the
Sells-Floto shows, on his last visit, Sc

in Laramie on June oath, if the water
is of the proper temperature and the
weather propitious, the great double
herd Of Sells-Floto elephants will be
given a bath in the river or in a pond

river at Denver the elephants were 50
overjoyed, while bathing, at being for
the time freed from their trainers,
they INDUCED in huge water spout
jokes until the whole picnic took on g
serious aspect, the elephants absolute

A MELODRAMA WHICH
APPEALS TO AUDIENCE.

Tomorrow, Wednesday,, evening oc-

seat sale has already begun at the Lar
annie Drug store and Laramieites are
looking for a very pleasing attraction.
The Evening Chronicle of Spokane,
Wash, makes this comment: odd
Arkansaw," by Fred Raymond, auth
or of The Missouri Girl" opened for
the week at the Columbia theater last
night, to an audience which filled the
house to its fullest capacity. The play
itself is one of those melodramas,
which in spite of some of he thrills
the audience and tells a story which
holds the interest from start to inisd.
1t is a tale of the hills of Arkansas,
and some of the characters are exceed
ingly droll and amusing. John q.
Odell as John Rogers, known as "O'd
Arkansaw,' has a strong part and his
Interpretation of it was convincing
Grace Bell Gilmore, who plays Sue
is a clever actress inc was a favorite
with the audience, Fan Hays, the
gawky Mary Slocum, who don't know
nothin' and allus did," is n Of the
brightest spots of the play, CLAIR
Nicholson, as old jeremiah Snodgrass,
creates a character which stands our
in a class Of comedy by itself. Thea
|tergoers who liked Zeke in The Mis-
souri, Girl" are at a loss to decide
which is the better part. HI others
in the company handle their parts
creditably, and taken as a whole "Oid
Arkansaw' is a pleasing production.

Mason City, Sept. THE demand
for laboring men turnout the country,
and the strenuous efforts of large
concerns to obtain and hold men, has
had an illustration here, and the
courts have been appealed to to pre-
vent employees Of one company from
leaving.
The Northwestern States Portland
Cement Company filed a suit in The
district court to prevent John Olhins
of Des Moines from influencing the
laborers at the cement plant to leave
their work here and go to Des Moines
or other places. Olbins was formerly
employed at the cement plant here,
but is, now working in Des Moines,
when he is not trying to get the for
eigners to leave here.
Olbins is, familiar with the German
and Austrian languages. as well as
English; can interpret from one to the
other, and therefore has, great in1u-
ence over the men whose language ne
speaks and who do not understand
nglish Olbins has been determined
his efforts and has remained in the
ad calling to the men after being
sdered from the premises. He also
Is been with them frequently at
ghts.
There are about four hundred men
5.sorking at the plant, gathered here at
great expense to the company, from
various parts of the country They
are largely Austrians and entirely ig-
norant OF English, so they are easily
led by a man who understands both
languages.
Oblins took away eighteen men to
the mines in Duluth, MINI. He gets d
for these men from the
great industrial companies who are
badly in need of laborers.

Cedar Rapids, Sept. Coroner King
and Captain Kroulik have cleared UP
the mystery surrounding the hndins
of the body on the Rockford road
Thursday night, After careful
search all day and the tracing down
of many clues they finally found the
mans coat, hat and vest all in pile,
not far from where his body was found
in the water.
From letters and papers found In
the pockets of his clothing it appears
that the mans name was John Welsch
and that his home is in Sigourney,
Iowa There was cash fare slip
showing that he had paid his fare on
the train from Sigourney, Iowa. There
was also a card showing that he was
member of Sigourney lodge No. %.
E'raternal Bankers Reserve Society.
The last receipt for dues paid is dated
July and it Is probable that he has
been dead since July, judging from
the condition of the body when 1t was
found.
Coroner King telephoned to Sigour-
ney and learned that Welsch had
been missing from home for about a
month. He was woodworker by oc-
cupation He was member of the
NJ w. A as we'll as the f. B. r. He
left a wife ,in Sigourney, Mrs. Mary

How Welsch met his death is mys-
terry which probably never will be

ceipts for the fair were only $275 short
of last year, which was a good one
Exhibits were never better in stock,
fowls and machinery The building
assigned to school work from the coun-
try was filled with excellent exhibits.
The only departments which were not
up to the usual standard were the
canned fruits, jellies and pickles, fresh
fruits and vegetables. A fine display
from the Industrial School for Boys
occupied one end Of the floral hall.
Here all varieties OF vegetables were
found and their remarkable size was
proof of the scientific farming that Is
being done at the institution.
The Eldora Boys band and the In
dustrial School band furnished plenty
OF music for the day. About $50 boys
from the institution attended in the
afternoon, with their family managers.
They were especially enthusiastic at
the bail game also during the exhibit
ton Of the acrobats and tumblers. Be-
fore returning to the institution they
wore taken over the grounds to see all
the exhibits.

was given by Jack" Perkins 2-year-
