ored with a visit from Fish Com.
missioner, Bowers and Engineer
VonBeyer of the Fish Depart
ment of the United States Gov
erment with headquarters in

Mr.. Bowers arrived in the

needs Of the local Fish Hatchery
and enlisting a greater interest
through Mr.. Robins among the
people Of the city in the work be
ing done here by the Government
Mr.. Burnham explained to the
Commissioner that another pond
was required and a much greater
outlay of money than has been
made for the past two years to
place the Hatchery upon a USE
full and advantageous footing.
Mayor Robins agreed to lend
all encouragement necessary on
the part of the city and to open
up a thoroughfare from the city,
making the Hatchery here asces-
ible to the public.
Mr.. Bowers agreed with these
gentlemen and promised to exert
his very best efforts to have Con-
gress make an appropriation each
year sufficiently large to place in

ed to improve and keep the
Hatchery fully up to the expec-
tations when located.

Will Robins Dredge Boat.

The Dredge Boat purchased by
Mr.. w. D. Robins for the pur.
pose of enlarging the canal
through his land in Town Creek
bottom has been at work for sew
eral weeks and every one who
has visited it and witnessed it in
operation are fully satisfied that
it will do the work with greater
ease and with better results than
by any other method which could
be employed to make a channel.
The boat was purchased from
Fairbanks Steam Shovel Co. OF
Marion, Ohio and was constructed
here, the machinery having been
shipped knocked down. The
size of the boat can be imagined
when it is known that it required
two cars of lumber to construct
it. The usual delay in getting it
to work was experienced, but af-
ter Mr.. Robins saw it in opera
ton he was assured then that he
had made no mistake.
The distance to be traverSed
through Mr.. Robins land is about
three miles. The present canal
will be wioeaed II feet and will
be deepened throughout. The
channel runs through some very
valuable lands and the drainage
will very greatly increase the
productiveness of every foot to
be traversed and drained. This
land has been brought into a
state of cultivation and the only
uncertainty in making a crop is
the summer overflows. With
this additional drainage the wa
ter will be carried off promptly
and the land increased two-fold
from it's present value.
We predict that not a foot of
the land in this territory can be
-
purchased within three years for
one cent less thau $1,000 per
acre. The holders Of all the land
in Town Creek south of Robins
have agreed to carry the channel,
to below the Verona and Plan
levee.
At this point the channel of
Town Creek is wide and deep
and the outlet sufficient to carry
off the water as rapidly as it is
emptied into it.

New York, Aug. 31-Thayt seven chill
dren, inmates of ST. Malachi's Home
for Children, at Rockaway Park, L. l.,
were suffocated in fire which des-
troyed portion of the home last night,
was discovered today by firemen dig
ging in the ruins of the burned build
ing. There were 750 children in the
institution, which was conducted by
the Sisters of st. Joseph of Brooklyn
Most of them were marched out of the
buildings in good order last night when
the fire alarm sounded, and 1t was sup
posed that all had escaped until the
bodies were found in smouldering em-
bers today.
Nearly all of those burned to death
were under 5 years. The portion Of the
dormirory in which they slept was di-
rectiy over tie laundry, where the fire
originated. How they were overlooked
last night, or whether there were 9TH
er bodies remaining in the ruins, could
not be determined this morning, as
most of the records of this institution
were destroyed or are inaccessible.
The names of the children are un-
known.

Stringhalt, spasmodic contraction

usually occurs In animals OF a highly
nervous disposition. One of the most
frequent forms of stringhalt is jerk
ing up OF the hind leg as the horse
travels. in many cases only when the
horse first starts.
This is often most severe in cold
weather and gradually increases MS the
animal grows older, but It does not
seem to cause any suffering nor In
terfere with the general health OF the
animal.
In most cases of chorea (stringhals)
medical treatment does not give BEN

DEATH OF HARDIN PIONEER.
T. N. Hauser Had Resided on Old
Homestead Over Half Century.

Union, Aug. 31.-Thomas N Hauser.
who emigrated to this county In 1850
and who has lived on the same farm
continuously since, died Saturday after
an illness of about a year. Mr. Hauser
was born in North Carolina on the 18th
day of September. 1882 Aug 6, 1874,
he was united in marriage to Miss
Nancy Bayles, who with ten children
survive him. In 1850 the newly mar
ried people came to Iowa and Hardin
county when this section was practi-
cally a wilderness. Their first cabin
was 12X14 made with round poles
without windows, and for light a log
was cut out, over which was pasted
creased paper The furniture with
which the first cabin was supplied was
hewn by Mr.. Hauser out of native tim
Der. But from this condition Mr.. and
Mrs. Hauser amassed a competency, at
the time of Mr.. Hausers death they
being owners of 800 acres OF good Har-
din county land.
Mr. Hauser filled many positions Of
honor and trust. For one term he rep
resented Hardin county in the state
legislature. Here, as well as In the
minor offices. his voice and vote We're
ever found on the side of right as
against greed. "Uacle Tommy" Hau-
ser, as every in this county called him,
was a man of the common people.

should never be allowed to suckle the
colt when warm.
Let the mare rest time when COM

the Iowa coal operators against COM
petition from the Illinois operators was
assured yesterday when the coal traf-
fic managers of seven Iowa trunk lines

coal operators, composing the Iowa
Commercial Coal Association, with the
coal traffic managers will be held in

will be held for the purpose of check
ing up the rates on Iowa coal and de-
termining what shall be the percentage
