BLOCKADE LIKELY
This City and Central Iowa Swept by
Worst Blizzard Of Winter = Snow
Drifting Badly, Interfering With
Traffic and Likely to Cause Serious
Blockade

A snow storm, which came out OF
the northeast early this morning, ac-
companied by high wind, developed
into a blizzard by daybreak. and gives
promise of causing serious delays to
traffic of all kinds, and even produc-
ing a complete blockade should 1t con-
tinue turnout the day.
Early this morning the movement
of trains began to be hampered by the
wind, snow and drifts. Trainmen VINO
arrived on the morning trains SAID the
snow was drifting badly in the cuts, ana
as 1t is moist and heavy and Is pack
ing hard under the wind. All OF the
morning trains We're from a few MN
utes to an hour late. and it was eX-
nacted th;- -,-,',~ thai their mOVe-
ments would become more irregul
as the storm cvlsiiaeu. fortunately
the temperature remains comparatively
high.
At 1880 o'clock this morning the
temperature had risen to Is above zero
from above, the lowest point reached
during the night. Mondays maximum
was 80, compared with % for Sunday.

who were unable to obtain seats were
turned away.
Those who appeared on the program
ranged from the tots of the first grade
Rogers school, to pupils of the elev-
enth grade OF the high school. Taken
collectively the entertainment was ex-
cellent and most successful In every
way, and reflects much credit on the
teachers and instructors who trained
the performers.
Musically. the high school girls glee
club was perhaps the best. Under the
direction of Miss Julia Krause, super
visor of music, the girls sang Schu-
berts Serenade and che Maiden and
the Butterfly" and gave both numbers
most eXcelently The girls glee club
of the sixth and seventh grades or
the Abbott school. under the direction
of Mrs. Jessie Liston. sang one delight
full number Way Down Upon the
Swanee River" Misses Gladys Man
chester and Halle Boswell sang the
solo. the club humming the accom-
paniment.
A dramatization Of Mother Goose by
the little girls of the first grade Rog-
ers, who had been trained by Miss
Hannum. proved the real hit OF the
evening. Dorothy Shove took the part
of the old lady who lived in the shoe
and had so many children she didn't
know what to do"
Another pleasing feature by the
younger children was the physical
drill, the usual class work. which
thirty children Of the fourth grade,

Seerley.
Members Of the eleventh grade, Of
the high school, put on part of the
fourth act. the trial scene. of "The
Merchant of Venice" The presentation
was in many respects remarkable. and
showed the excellent training the cast
had received from Miss Esse Hatha-
way. Carl Click. who took the very
difficult part of Shylock. carried 1t
with remarkable skill for an amateur.

JOKE IS
ON GROCER
Thought He Would Have Fun
With Cooper and Was
Surprised
EXPERIENCES OF MCLAUGHLIN
Man From the Buckeye State Who is
Visiting the Hub City Has Won
Fortune Which He Is Lavishly Dis
pensing.

Boston, Feb. 17.--This city Is atpres-
ent in the midst Of an excitement be-
You'd anything that it has experienced
in recent years..
Old and young, rich and poor, all
seem to have become beside themselves
over an Individual who was a stranger
to Boston until few days ago.
The man who has created all this
turmoil is L. I. Cooper. OF Dayton
Ohio, who is at present introducing
his preparations in this city for the
first time.
Cooper is man about thirty years
OF age who has acquired a fortune
within the past two years by the sale
Of some preparations of which he is
the owner.
Reports from ether cities that pre-
ceded the young man here were of the
most startling nature, many OF the
leading dailies going so far as to state
that he had cured in public places
deafness Of years standing with one
Of his preparations. Physicians gen
orally contradicted this statement,
claiming the thing to be impossible,
Iut the facts seemed to bear out the
statement that Cooper actually did so.
In consequence people flocked to him
by thousands, and his preparations
sold like wildffre.
Many of these stories We're regarded
as fictitious in Boston, and until
Cooper actually reached this city little
attention was paid to them. Hardly
had the young man arrived, however,
than he began demonstrations, as he
to- a,,I dol
people afflicted with deafness, and
with a single application of one of his
preparations actually made deaf peo-
pie hear again.
" One of those treated a day or two
ago, was Patrick Mclaughlin, a we'll
known grocer OF Cambridge, who. in
answer to a question by a reporter
said:
yves, 1t Is true that my hearing has
been restored by Mr.. Cooper. I have
been deaf for twenty years, and 1T
seems so wonderfully strange to be
able to hear again that l have not yet
become accustomed to the change. In
years past I had been to leading spe-
scialists both in this country and in
Europe, who had failed to help me,
and had long ago given up all hope.
when Mr.. Cooper came to Boston,
u went to have some fun at his ex-
pense, for really did not think he
could do anything for me. However.
the Joke is on me, and am truly glad
Of 1t. I now hear perfectly, and you
can publish the news to the world if
& you want to, for think others ought
to know about this man Cooper and
what he Is doing. I do not know how
to thank him enough for what he has
done for me-"
Statements CT this character have
been made by Others, and it seems to
4 be an established fact that Cooper's
work is genuine.

MILK DEALERS TURNED DOWN.
Board of Health Votes as a Unit in
Tablinq Petition.

The Marshaltown Wholesale and
Retail Milk Dealers association was
turned down cold by the board of
health Monday night, when the pc
tition presented a week ago was taken
up for consideration. The petition,
which was generally signed by dealers,
asked that the ordinance be held in
allegiance until some state law gov
erned the inspection of COWS and the
sale of milk. The dealers also asked
that the city reimburse the owners one
half the value of the condemned ami
mails, the figures to be fixed by three
appraisers.
Devine spoke earnestly on the sub
;ect, and moved to table the petition.
This was done by the vote of every
member present Devine said that a
farmer might as well ask pay for his
hogs that had died of cholera He was
utterly opposed to receding one lota
and considered that the board would
be negligent of its duty if it did not
comply strictly to the ordinance as
passed.

dangers, and said if he might be par
