From Drug Store Cigar Lighter.
Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, May 20.-A lady of this
city lost swell Merry Widow hat and
narrowly escaped severe burns in a
remarkable conflagration here yester-
day afternoon. With a lady compan-
ion she had just left drug store and
was crossing Fourth street, when a
grocery clerk noticed that her hat was
on fire. He shouted and attracted the
attention Of F. S. Humphrey, popcorn
stand man, who turned about just as
the lady brushed his shoulder. He
saw the wonderful creation of rose
buds and lace all In flames. and seiz-
ing the hat by the rim tore it from the

100 900 in passenger earnings.
Ten of the principal railroad COM
panies in the state have thus far re-
ported to executive council a netsin-
crease in passenger earnings of about
s435, 900, including the reports of the
two trunk lines named herein. The
Great Western, Rock Island and ILL
nois Central were included in the for
mer reports. There remains only the
Burlington, of the large lines, to make
a report.
1t is believed, therefore, that the
showing made under the 2-cent fare
law will be increased passenger earn
ings for all Of the roads of the state
taken together.
The, Northwestern company in
creased it's net earnings over $425,000
in 1907 as compared with 1906. Its
gross earnings increased $1.65O,OO0, but
its net earnings increased $1,225.OOO
Its total gross earnings in Iowa
amounted to more than $16,290,000.
The milwaukee, company's Iowa
business showed an increase Of $685.
900 in gross earnings, but an increase
of nearly $1,4O0,00O in operating ex-
penses, so that its net earnings are re-
duced about $1,135,000 as compared
with 1906.
over 100000 of the Northwestern's
increase in passenger earnings was or
travel wholly within Iowa, from Iowa
to Iowa points, and on which the peo-
ple of Iowa got the full benefit.
This increase is supposed to be due
to the 2-cent fare law.
The reports of the companies do not
disclose the specific reason for in
,creases in operating expenses to the
extent to which they actually In
creased.

Mt Pleasant, May 20.-The board OF
trustees of Iowa Wesleyan University
met in called session yesterday for the
purpose Of receiving the report Of the
committee on new president. They re-
ported unanimously in favor of DR.. ~
A. Schell,, as has previously been am
nounced. The board elected him unani-
mously and enthusiastically. One OF the
members in his enthusiasm, said:
dWhen Schell gets here things will be
moving. He is the peer Of any college
president in the United States. The
only thing is that we were fortunate
enough to get him." DR.. ScheH is at
present attending general conference.
The Inauguration ceremonies were left
entirely in the hands of the executive
committee, and will be held some time
during commencement week.
The plan to affiliate Keokuk Medi-
cal college with Iowa Wesleyan was
knocked out. The committee appointed
to investigate the offer made by Keo-
kuk Medical college at the February
meeting of the board, reported against
the proposition, and their report was
unanimously adopted. The Keokuk
school made q very fattering offer,
meeting practically all the demands OF
the trustees, but it was not thought
best to leave the school in Keoklk as
a part of Iowa Wesleyan, and it was
not feasible to move it up here.
The board also passed resolutions
commencing the students on their en-
thusiasm in their student activities this
year, and the marked success with
which they are met. It will be remem-
bere,d that Wesleyan won the state or
atorical contest, the biggest student
contest in Iowa. She also had a Win
ming basket ball team, defeated Upper
Iowa in college debate and Grinnell
, in sLn academy debate.
