wELLMAN DOOMED TO FAIL.
Arctic Conditions Not Favorable
Airships. Saws Baldwin.

Des Moines, Aug. 15.-At least one
man believes that Walter Wellman will
never reach the north pole. That man
is Evelyn Baldwin, four times arctic
explorer and leader of the famous Bald
win-Ziegler expedition.
II do not agree with Mr.. Wellman,
that arctic conditions are favorable to
airships," said Mr.. Baldwin in Des
Moines yesterday. "There Is little
doubt that the airshfp will fly. The
difficulty will be to guide 1t and land
where desirable. Even if the airship
can be made to fly here, is no reason it
will fly in the land of the midnight
sun. Wellman will never make it,"

Waterloo, Aug. 15.-A middle-asaa
man. who is described as acting most
peculiarly, has been frequenting Chau-
tauqua and Sans Soucl parks for sew
eral weeks. At the most unexpected
times and in the most out of the way
places he has been seen skulking about.
They're are no complaints of any depre-
dations that he has committed, but he
is said to have frightened girls and
young women in the evening hours by
his queer actions.
The timber and foliage along the
river form safe retreats for this man
who is believed to be somewhat de-
mented. He is believed to exist on
the herbs and such wild fruits as the
forests afford. supplemented by the hsh

Mason City, Aug. 15.--Will Mason

is the question that is provoking con-
siderable comment and is giving POST
master Kotchell just a little uneasi-
ness. The fact that the Milwaukee
Construction Co., who is the lowest
petitor, has given rise to the story again
nearly $4,000 below their closest COM
peitor, has given rise to the story again
which had currency here some weeks
ago. Mr.. Ko,chell, while in Washing

chtect and he says he had definite
understanding that the roof was not to
be tin but either slate or tile.

Johnson md Paving.

Councilman Johnson has resorted
to every imaginable excuse to block
the paving Of Baltimore street. In
the start he emphasized the declara-
ton that he certainly did want Bal
timore street paved and ever after
that proceeded to delay the move
ment in that direction. For weeks
he succeeded in having the matter
postponed on one pretext or another,
until the council ceased to have pa
thence and wisely concluded 1t was
best to delay the matters no longer.
This did not prevent Mr.. Johnson
from making further objections every
time he had the slightest opportun-
ity and up to the very last he held
out against paving, grasping at every
straw to prevent it if possible. His
last struggle against 1t Monday night
just before the contract was award
ed was most pathetic. but it was
case of considering the public inter-
ests rather than his feelings and
that is what the council thought
about it.
So, they awarded the contract and
said pave. Notwithstanding his pro-
test to the very last. He voted
against paving just as it was claimed
all along he would do, when the
final test came.

The antt-spitting ordinance meets
with general approval. but is seems
ridiculous for the council to take
such action in view of the fact that
in some sections hog pens are al
most on the sidewalks and have an
odor so foul that passersby are all
but knocked down. Perhaps, 1T
-would-Reaw well for the health Of the
community for the city authorities
to get busy in abatIng hog pens,
when they are found to be nuisances
like one or two are on Monticello
avenue. 1t seems little bit out OF
the ordinary to limit the filthy actions
of man and give hogs unlimited
privilege to spread filth. Why not
look after the hogs, too?

Two cases of horses frightened by
automobiles and resulting accidents
occurred here Wednesday afternoon.
The first was that in which team of
handsome gray horses from the L. S.

narrow piece of country road with
steep banks on each side. The auto

the team go down the bank, and Desja-
don flying over a wire fence, speeded
away. The horses were scratched but
not seriously injured and Desjadon, al
though somewhat bruised, was able to
stop his team without much damage
being done. The second accident was
that of Mrs. Allen Peck and Mrs. Hiram
Bingham of West Cornwall. They
