Circumstances Seem to Con-
denim Three Men Accused
of Cummings Murder
HEARING BEHIND CLOSED DOORS
This Action Was Taken in the Trial at
Mason City, on Motion of Attorneys
for the Defendants-story of Drunken
carousaI and Fight Which Preceded
Cummings Death.
Special to Times-Republlcan.


Mason City, Nov. 16.-Wftnesses for
the state revealed facts in connection
with the recent mysterious death of
Michael Cummings at Plymouth, which
weave net of strong crcumstantial
evidence against the three men charged
with Cummings murder. The prelim-
mary hearing occupied all day Satur-
day, and was concluded this morning.
No witnesses were called for the de-
attorneys for the defendants that the
hearing was held behind closed doors.
The story of the affair as revealed
by the testimony of the witnesses for
the state, brings out facts which were
not even limited at in testimony at the
coroner's inquest. A fight which oc-
Cured at the home of Frank Fallesek
on the night of Cummings death is the
event about which the whole story
hinges Fallesek is brother-in-law
of Frank and Albert Dedina, two of
block from the Cummings home. Leo
Cummings, 16 years old. and the
youngest son of the dead man, testi-
fled that he with the two Dedinas and
Vince Novratial, the third of the trio
of prisoners, took his father home at
about II o'clock. The old man could
not walk at that time. Albert Dedina
alone took him to his room and he says
set him up on the bed. The son and
the two others waited outside. Just as
Albert Dedna came outside they heard
the noise like some one falling from
bed Leo wanted to return but the 9th
ers dissuaded him and he left the
house never to see his father alive
again.
The fight at the Fallesek home oc-
Cured at about midnight. Mrs. al
Lantz, who lives across the street and
who is the wife of the town marshal,
was awakened at near that hour by
the screaming of Mrs Fallesek, who
had come running across the street in
her night clothes. She was crying
"help" and murder" and said that
big tight was going at their house At
Just that time an unknown horseman
rode twice around the block at full
speed, and a helpless form was car
ried from door of the Fallesek
house. Mrs. Lantz's husband was at

this time several blocks away on duty.
The two Dedinas had come down
from Austin on that night with a grip
full of liquor This had been left at the
Fallesel home and the carousing was
carried on there during the evening.
That Cummings after being taken
home the first time at shortly after ii
O'clock. in some way reached the
Fallesck home again, and there con-
Stunning more liquor became engaged in
drunken fight which caused his
DEATH is the contention of the state.
According to the testimony of the ply
stefan who examined the dead body.
the neck was broken. the lower jaw
fractured, and there was a loAg cut
over the left eye. The theory tina tVCum-
mngs received these injuries as a re-
sui; of falling from the bed was at first
advanced. The bed was only eighteen
inches high.
All three of the alleged murderers
are now out on bond. The bondsmen
in each case forfeit $4,000 should the
accused men leave the country Nov

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP.
Many Explanations of Badness Have
Been Advanced-The Most Correct is
ThaA AZ MinrohAa

4 ~ nat OF MICROBES.
The term "microbe" refers to a para
/ site plant or fungi also called bacteria,
"A microbe is so small that it can only
be detected by the aid of a micro
scope. Some microbes are harmless,
while others produce various diseases,
and derive their titles thru the form
of their growth or because of the dis
eases they create, which diseases are
infectious or contagious.
Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger
many, and Dr. Sabourand the leading
dermatologist Of France, discovered
that microbe caused badness, and
their theory has time and again been
amply verified thru research expert
ments carried on thru the observation
of eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges in the Sebum, which is the nat
ural hair oil, and if permitted to -four
ish, it destroys the hair follicies. and in
time the pores entirely close and the
scalp gradually takes on shiny ap-
pearance. When this happens there is
no hope ST the hair growth being re-
vived.
Dandruff Is a contagious disease
which a nicrobe causes, and later pro-
duces itching scalp, falling hair and
badness. Dandruff is caused by the mi
.crobe diseasing the sebaceous matter,
which dries up and scales off. Some
times the cuticle surrounding the hair
allows the natural oil of the hair to
force its way between the flakes of
scarf skin direct to the hair, and the
microbe being between the flakes before
them apart and they scale off as dand-
ruff!
We have remedy which positively
will remove dandruff, exterlninate the
microbe, promote good circulation in
the scalp, tighten and revitaliZe the
hair roots, grow hair and cure bald
ness We back up this statement on
our own personal guarantee that this
remedy, which is called Rexall "93"
Hair Tonic, will be supplied free of all

ceedingly pleasant to use, and will not

go i'm the city of Muscatine. BY a de-
cision rendered Saturday at Davenport,
and received in this city today. Judge
Bollinger finds that the mulct petition
is insufficient because of the absence
of date with 500 signatures on the
article of consent. This means that
Muscatine will go dry again at once,
and it will be at least a year before
any effort can be made by any Of the
saloonkeepers to reopen their dispen-
saries of wet goods.
The decision marks the elimination
of, one of the greatest fights ever put
up against the bottle. For more than u
year a campaign has been waged
against the saloon in Muscatine. The
anti-saloon league started the attack
last fall, when it compromised with
ions of the mulct law relative to the
operation of the bar rooms. Billy
Sunday continued the fight, and when
he left, the Law Enforcement league
organized by him, got busy and closed
every saloon in the city on New Years
day. Evidence was secured against
the saloon men showing that they had
operated illegally, and permanent in
functions were granted against many
of the men and the buildings. The
saloonists were next to act. They cir
culated a petition of consent, securing
as they thought, list of names suffi-
cient to warrant them to operate UNI
der the mulct law. There were tech
nicalities they overlooked, however,
such as the date of the signatures,
his address and other like negligence.
1t was just one of these that defeated
the wet measure. The board of coun-
ty supervisors allowed the petition,
and the league appealed to the district
court. The hearing was made by Boil
linger, and his decision came seven
weeks after the hearing. On the
strength of the finding of the super
visors. the city council gave a number
of saloonkeepers permission to oper-
ate. and they are now liable to prose-
cution.

HANCOCK ELEVATOR BURNS.
Entire Town Threatened for Time
Loss is 5000.

Hancock. Nov. 16.-The large ele-
vator here owned by j. "A. Bunting. of
Atlantic burned down at an early
hour the fire for a time seriously
threatening the destruction of the en-
tire town. The only thing that pre-
vented general fire was the fact that
the elevator was encased in sheet iron,
this acting like a huge funnel and pre-
venting the spread Of the flames. A
lumber yard adjoining was in immin-
ent danger several times and was saved
by hard work on the part Of the citi-
zens.
The elevator was managed by w. K.
Stevenson. who was in Omaha at the
time. The loss is $4,000 with insur-
ance of $4,000. Twelve hundred BUSH
els Of grain were destroyed. The fire
is believed to have originated in the
slack stored in the basement of the
elevator

While driving to town on election day
son of Thomas Folsom discovered a
strange bird of huge proportions in the
grove near the home of Arthur Ben
rens, two miles northeast of Postville.
Procuring shotgun he cut loose
broadside at the bird and so wounded
it that it fell to the ground, where it
put up such fight that it was neces-
sary to dispatch it with a club before
he discovered that he had brought
down a great grey eagle that measured
seven feet and six inches from tip to
tip of wings, and from appearances the
bird was an old-timer.

The interest which has gradually
