Knoxville. Nov 17.--Viewed from the
point of old age, the most notable
death which has occurred in this sec
tor of Iowa for many years was that
of the venerable William Cart, who
passed away at his home in Swan

Deceased was born in Louisburg,
Greenbriar county. Virginia. (now
West Virginia), Sept. ~. 1908. That
was during the administration OF
Thomas Jefferson. the third president
OF the United States; therefore 1t is
plain that Mr.. Cart lived during the
reign Of twenty-six Of our twenty
eight chief executives and until after
the twenty ninth had been elected. His
grandfather was q soldier in the war
of the revolution; his father served in
the war Of 1912, and his brother, An
drew in the war with Mexico. Only
three years ago Mr.. Cart informed the
writer that he could well remember
visiting a camp of American soldiers
with his father during the war OF

that incident occurred in the fail of
1914. when the narrator was years
old
Mr. Cart resided in Virginia until
1885 ind then removed to Ellihart
county, Indiana. Two years later in
1887, when he was 90 years old. he
made his first trip to Iowa territory.
After a few months spent In Black
Hawks domains, Mr.. Cart returned to
Indiana, and remained there until after
the very early pioneers had succeeded
in carving Iowa from the wilderness.
In 1854 he left Indiana and spent some
time in Kansas territory, then came to
Marion county and purchased the farm
where he resided more thar fifty-four
years, and where his death occurred.
Mr. Cart was united in marriage
with Nancy Cart, a distant relative,
in Elkhart county Indiana, in 1887.
she died at her home in Swan town
ship in 1890 ut the age of 10 years.
Six children were born = four still
living: Mrs. S. J. Poison. Mrs. S. Y.
Gose Hamilton Cart, and $. NJ Cart.
There are also seven grandchildren.

Nerve Pills have helped many thousands OF
people to solve by reason Of their extraordinary

The only sure foundation for health is rich,

Both Of these result from the use of DR.. A.

team against the Lincoln high
school of Seattle on Recreation
grounds Saturday, than was pitted
against Tacoma. Kienholz, the 1876
pound end who plays a whirlwind
game, will be out of it and Pritch-
ard played. Pritchard is 20
pounds heavier than the man he
replaces, but isn't the player. Mohr,
the big 220 pound right guard is
also bunged up with a wrenched
ankle and Mackenzie will play the
position. He is so pounds lighter.
Right tackle Hughes, who was in
jured against Tacoma, won't be in
playing condition and Johnson, who
is a little heavier, will take his
place.
Coach Kennedy has been putting
his squad through severe practice
all week realizing that the Lincoln
school is considered better than
Tacoma and that the Spokane team
won from Tacoma only by margin
of 6 to a.
Following are the probable line
ups:
Spokane-Jensen, center; Pritch-
ard and Fancher, ends; Fnglehorn
and Johnson, tackles; Anderson
and Mackenzie, guards; Herring
