Iowa Alumni Buys at okoboli
Acting for the alumni of the state
university. Prof Thomas H. Macbride
purchased property at Lake Okoboji
to be known as Lakeside Laboratory.
The property includes five acres of
land, several buildings. an electric
light plant and numb, of boats.
The land is well shaded and so situat.
ed on high ground that 1t is ideal for
camping. The plan is to have it open
to the students and alumni of the
state university. While 1t will be of
inestimable value to them in their
studies, it will also serve to adver-
tise the state university in northwest
ern Iowa and bring the institution in
closer touch with the people living
there
This is one Of the most progressive
steps ever taken by the state univer.
sity. 1t will have one of the best
botanical and geological research in
the country.

Mr.. Titcomb was born in Augusta
March A. 1913. and was one of the two
sons Of Samuel and Julia A. UimbalD
Titcuiiib. His carly education was ac-
quircI in the schools of his native city,
after which he entered Harvard Col
lege, where he took up the study Of
law and from which institution he
graduated in 1911. During the following
year he became associated with his Ia
Their in the practice of law under the
firm lame of S. Il l.. Titconb. and con-
tiru"d with him until the death of the
latter in January. 1892.
Stree that time he had conducted the
business, enjoying large practice. The
larger part OF Mr.. Titcomb's practice
was probote Practice, and as the trus-
tee of estates he probably represented
more different interests than any man
in this section Of the State. His knoWl-
edge of probate practice and probate
law was of the best and he was con-
sidered an authority on such matters.
He was a man of never failing
courtesy and friendlness to all, and a
kind husband and father Over and
above these characteristics there stood
out conspicuously his sense of justice.
Courteous as he always was, generous
as he never failed to be, devoted as he
was to his friends and ready as he was
to respond to the calls of friendship.
if it became his duty to act in a judicial
capacity, not friendship, nor self-in-
tereSt, nor any other consideration
could warp his judgment or lead him
to decide by any other scale than that
of absolute justice.
Mr.. Titcomb was closely identified
with The school interests Of the city
for many years, and also with the city
government, having served as a men,
Dor Of the common council in 1890 and
1891, and was twice chosen mayor, in
1901 and 1909. He was largely interest
ed in banking. He was president of the
First National Bank, having been
elected to that office Aug. s, 1901, sue
ceeding the late Oscar HolWay. and
previous to that was chosen u director
of the same institution March II. 1884.
He was also Il director of the Northern
National Bank of Hallowell, having
been chosen to that position in Janu-
ary 1892 He was chosen trustee of
the Augusta Savings Bank Jan. g.
1893, and vice president of that InSti-
tuition Feb II. 1905. He was also a
trustee of the Lithgow library

ATLANTIC SALOON
MEN THREATEN TO
. OPEN TOMORROW
Police Worried Over Evidences
of Possible Defiance at
Jersey Resort.

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 12.-Encour-
aged by information from Cape May
county tina the grand jury there had
also failed to indict for Sunday selling,
and angry at what they term "discrim-
nation against them in forcing them
to close their doors for the last two
Sundays, Independent saloonmen In
timated today that they would open to-
morrow.
They do not believe that the local
organization. which has just won a
hard battle for control of the city,
would care to antagonize them by at
tempting to arrest every nan who let
his side door swing ajar. Even if this
difficult task be carried out. they are
confident that the October grand jury
will follow the example set by its prede-
cessors, and fail to find true bills.
Those who run only saloons feel that
they are getting the worst of it from
their own friends, ard it is limited that
il would not take much persuasion TO
get them to bolt and join the indie
pendents in the promised revolution.
City officials admit that they are
worried, for IL even fifty places opened
up. simultaneously tomorrow the police
department woul find it difficult to
close them, for there are moi enough
bluecoats on the coils to make the at
tempt effective.
If the authorities try to force the
Indictment of some of the boilers as
an example to the rest, the indepen-
dents say they will form an associa-
ton of their own, fight to clear their
friends in the courts, N throw all
the weight of their influence against
the party in power.
