Conieisky's Automobile Wins.

At the Postville automobile meet
yesterday l. FL. Conigisky entered his
four cylinder. 1S-horse power Buick
car in the races and won first money
There were a large number of ma
chimes present, but only four entered
the race and from all reports it was
an exciting one. Will Noecker drove
the machine. The race was ten miles
and the machines started five minutes
apart, the DEBORAH car getting away
last, but with Noecker's masterful
driving it made the fastest time of the
four, making the ten miles in twenty
one minutes, which is going some
alright for rough country roads. Still
better time would have been made, if
an accident hadn't happened to the
third starter Part of the route led
across a field and the machine broke
down, which necessitated Mr.. Noec-
ker to swerve his machine and climb
a bank to get by. The purses were
$40, SIS and $40.

Charles City Bags Two Games.

It's too bsd-we hate awfully to re-
cord the fact-but nevertheless the
DEBORAH base ball team went down to
defeat last Sunday and Monday in
two games With Charles City. In Sun
days game DEBORAH got row OF goose
eggs and Charles Citv scored seven
times. and duplicated the score on
Monday, while DEBORAH chased one
score over the plate Rogue and
Bidne we're instrumental in securing
the score by two-base hits. In Sun
days game Bidne pitched a good
game, and if given the proper support
would have made the score look de-
cidedly small for Charles City. But
what's the use of pitcher pitching
his head off when he doesn't get the
proper support. But never mind
about defeat or two, DEBORAH Is
going to win a few games before the
season closes, and tomorrow at Ossian,
the Calmar sluggers will line up
against DEBORAH. and one of the real
base ball games of the season can be
looked for.

DEBORAH c. H. R. Defeats Cresco.

The ball game at the fair grounds
last Friday, where the Cresco court
house rats were arrayed against our
own swatters from the marble palace
on the hill, was sure wonder. After
numerous eyeopeners to the fans in
which each individual player on both
teams. not forgetting his jumps who
had difficult role to fill, showed up
in great form. The result was 30 to
l8 in favor of DEBORAH which was
going some. 1t was lesson to the
big league, who are seldom able to
make over three or four runs in a
game and frequently not more than
one to nothing even after several extra
innings have been played.

Public Schools Open Next Monday.

Next Monday, August 3lst, the city
schools will open for another years
work. Everything is now in readi-
ness to receive all the children of
school age within the city limits.
Some of the teachers are here ready
for work and others are on their way
TO DEBORAH, after spending a profitable
vacation. Many have been away at
tending summer schools and other
educational gatherings
The personnel of the teaching corps
is the same in the high school and
upper grades as it was last year.
Several changes have been made in
the lower grades. The new teachers
come highly recommended and are all
state normal school graduates.
The buildings have been thoroughly
cleaned. as we'll as the yards, making
the schools safe and inviting place
for children to spend their time.
The high school attendance promises
to be larger than usual and | hope
this will be the case in the elementary
grades.
make an earnest plea to parents
and citizens to cooperate with the
school in enforcing regular attendance
of school children. Anyone knowing
of children not attending school will
be doing a favor by communicating
the fact to me. 1t is one of our first
duties to administer the proper train
ing to all of our future citizens, thus
making them more useful and better
able to take their part in our body
polite. 1t is in this sense that we
make our public school the safeguard
of the nation.
The state seeks to protect the child
by requiring attendance between
certain ages. See to it that this law
is not violated The child cannot at
tend school if he is employed. and the
business man that employs such a
child is a transgressor of the law.
The business man that helps a child
into school by not employing it, is a
public benefactor.
/ ask the citizens of DEBORAH to take
note of the above suggestions and thus
help make the city schools more
efficient.
Very truly yours,
H. q. Johnson, Supt

Failed to Show Up.

Hopkins Bros. base ball team, of
Des Moines, were billed to play De-
corah two games of ball yesterday,
one in the afternoon and one in the
evening by electric light, but for
some reason they failed to put in an
appearance.
They wrote Manager Smith last
week for the games, and he wired
acceptance of terms. etc.. and booked
them, and billed the town according
ly, and a large crowd anxiously
awaited the arrival of the team, as
the novelty of night base ball game
was something everyone wanted to
see. But Hopkins Bros never showed
up. and never extended courtesy
enough to even let Manager Smith
know why they didn't 1t was keen
disappointment to many people. and
if they received Mr. Smiths accept
ance of their proposition, the least
they could have done would have been
to wire reason for not coming.

Not Washburn-Crosby.

Makers of Gold Medal Flour not
concerned in Minneapolis receiver
ship. 1t should be understood that
the Washburn- Crosby Co., makers of
Gold Medal Flour, are in no way con-
cerned with the recent Minneapolis
Touring mill receivership. The slight
similarity in names has led to some
confusion.
One need have no fear that the
Gold Medal housewives, whose pic
lures have adorned the magazines and
papers will cease to appear. We shall
see them the same as ever. And the
Washburn Crosby Co. continue to be
the largest milling concern in the
world.
Therefore while the receivership in
question is most unfortunate. it does
not concern all Minneapolis -four
mills. The Washburn- Crosby Co. :,
makers of the widely advertised Gold
Medal Flour shipped 5000 cars last
year more than their nearest compe-
titor. And they are fiourishing still
