ENLOGIzED SENATOR ALLISON

Before closing his address at Des
Moines Senator Aldrich eulogized Sena-
tor Allison, his old friend and colleague,
in the following manner:

he attended the wedding of a brother

He also made tour of Italy and Swift
zerland and visited the sights and scenes
of his youth before coming to this coun

SENATOR ALDRICH
VISITS DIES MONIES
MAKES ADDRESS TO BANKERS
AND OTHER BUSINESS MEN
He Is Seeking Information That Will
Help Monetary Commission
lie EulOgizes Allison

Senator Atdrich of the little State of
Rhode Island who, by virtue of great
ability and long service is the leader of
the United States Senate, was in Des
Moines last week and made an address
before company of bankers and other
business men. Like Mark Hanna, Sena-
tor Aldrich has been pictured by some
newspapers in the west as man of
horns and hoofs ready to run down and
gore the middle west to its death. He
is the man who had the tariff bill in
charge and despite the opposition of
certain obstrephrous elements of his own
party succeeded in enacting what the
President calls the best tariff ever made
He is now, as head of the Monetary
Commission, seeking information from
financiers in all parts of this country and
Europe as to the best method of regulat-
ing the financial system of the govern
ment SO as to give the best service and
avoid the dangea of loss in panics
Now that Senator Aldrich has come
out west. mingled with its people and
talked to the leading citizens about the
affairs and interests of this great gov
eminent, his enemies even admit him to
he gentleman whose ability and char
acter command respect and admiration
The Evening Tribune says: 1T is not
necessary to look mt Senator Aldrich
twice to appreciate his elements of
strength. He has square jaw. a keen
eye, a powerful physique, a downeast
persistency and an amazing capacity
for detailed information. His pride has
been to know all the tariff schedules.
Occasionally he was bothered in the re-
cent debates, but on the whole he was
ready with plausible explanations of al
most every rate He displayed his ca
pacity for detail last night in talking
about the banking systems of Europe.
He made no misses, and never had to
correct himself 1t is hoped that
hereafter the Senator may receive credit
for being Us honest, pious and sincere in
his public life as those are who have
censured his actions and DETAINED his
character.

Nebraska requiring all saloons to close
their doors at eight o'clock in the even

To Prison for Life.

IN district court at West Union
last week Mike Halen pleaded gull
ty to murder in the second degree
for killing George Bennett at DEL
vein last November. Judge Hobson
imposed a life sentence. Attorney
Clements asked for mercy on ac-
count of defendant being drunk.
Judge Hobson said that excuse
would apply to two-thiIds of all
crimes tried in his court.
Halen is 26 years old and was en-
ployed in the Oelwein railroad
shops. On November 6 last, as
Night officer Young was making his
rounds about midnight, he was ac-
costed by Halen, who coolly inform
ed the officer that he had just kill
ed George Bennett, an old time
resident of Oelwein. To convince
the doubling officer of the truth of
his assertion, Halen produced two
pocket knives covered with blood
and showed his blood stained
hands. He said he had cut the
mans throat and would accompany
the officer to where the body lay.
A hack was called, and by direc-
ton of Halen was driven directly to
a vacant lot near Benefits home,
and there found the murdered man.
His throat was cut from ear to ear,
in fact the head was nearly severed
from the body. According to Hal
ems story, he and Bennett, starting
from Benefits home some time
after the saloons had closed, had
Quarreled. Halen said he first cut
him with one knife, and not killing
him directly, went back and finished
the job with the other knife. He
was taken to West Union that night
by automobile and Jailed.
Halen is single man and lived
in Oelwein a number of years. Aside
from his drinking habits he has al
ways borne a good reputation and
was not considered of quarrelsome
disposition. His victim, Geo. Ben
nett, was man past SO years of age
with family, and had lived in DEL
vein for many years. He was we'll
liked, very quiet and orderly, some
what addicted to drink, but rarely
used liquor to excess, and was never
quarrelsome.

"MA'S NEW HUSBAND"
Popular Musical Farce Coming to
the Grand Tonight.

That merry, romping, musical
farce, MAS New Husband" will
appear at the Grand this Wednesday
evening. From all accounts it is
one of the big laugh makers of the
season, and the management has
been obliged to promise return
dates in nearly every city it has
played in order to satisfy the pop
ular demand. The company has been
receiving glowing press notices for
clever, rapid fire work and for the
singing and comedy merit of the in
dividual members.
Much of the success of MAS New
Husband" is said to be due to it's
plot and the dexterous handling of
maze of side splitting situations.
The scene of all the mirth and mel
ody is laid in the Chicago home of
rich old sport bachelor, Culpepper.
His cousin, Maria Longfellow, has
recently lost her husband. Gull
pepper has loved her in the old days
and written her to come on from
New York and take charge of his
home. His letter arrives in the
nick of time to save Maria from
visions of starvation, as she just has
been eaten out OF house and home
and furniture by lot of impecuni-
Gus actors. One of these actors,
Herbert Short by name, has captur-
ed her heart. They arrange to mar
ry Just as soon as there is money in
sight to tied over the honeymoon.
Maria brings Short to Chicago and
as Culpepper has never seen her
little boy, Willie, lad of fourteen,
1T is agreed that Short will imper-
senate that youthful darling. 1t is
needless to state that Short is the
center of mirth and laughter His
escapade with Dorothy, the house
maid, with Mrs. Dickles, a guest,
with Madam Halliday, vocal teach
er, with a venerable tutor and old
humbug, Mr.. Hooker, and indeed
with every character in the play af-
fords little time for sanity or

popular songs together with pleas

The selection of new president
for Upper Iowa University 1t now
seems is to result in the choice of
Professor r. Watson Cooper of
Hamline university, st. Paul, MINI.
Prof. Cooper has for number of
years being teaching English at
Hamline and has had distinguished
success as an educator. He is also
speaker of ability and is widely
in demand as lecturer. For some
time he served as pastor of the
Plymouth Congregational church
in st. Paul, as well as speaking at
many other gatherings in the twin
cities. 1t is understood that Pro-
lessor Cooper has indicated his
willingness to accept the presidency
of Upper Iowa and his election now
seems assured. 1t is necessary that
a choice be made before commence
ment IL the work of the school Is to
go on without interruption as

His Foot Caught Upon a Root and
He Lurched Forward.

with her. Evidently she makes some
pretense to responsibility"
Aunt Eva" said Daniels, 1.-THE
young lady in question is of irreproach-
able character. She is working
girl, but none the less to be respect
ed on that account"
From that day Lawrence Daniels
had no peace of mind at Lake Lin
wood. He was at Adams Ferry prin-
cipally because his aunt had told him
to come, and, as she was wealthy and
favorably inclined toward him, her re-
quest was not to be disregarded. He
thought rather sorrowfully of the
evenings when he had called on Pearl
Amboyne, and of the talks they had
upon literature, art and other things.
They had read the same books and
spent many pleasant afternoons at
the picture galleries. That was in
the days when he was struggling for
bare existence.
Then somebody discovered that he
could write, and he found himself
upon paper where his salary ran
into large figures, and he was hailed
by that proudest of journalistic titles
"a good mani" Then he fell into
the good graces of Aunt Eva. That
meant receptions and afternoon teas
and an introduction into one of the
smart sets" of New York. Pearl
Amboyne saw him once or twice after
his rise in fortune. 1t was very easy
for him to tell her that he could find
little time to call upon her, for men
who obey the commands of a city ed
itor have little time they may call
their own. She saw him for the
first time in months at the landing at
Adams Ferry.
Pearl Amboyne and her mother
were permitted to go their own way
at the ferry. They did not seem to
be aware that they had been socially
ostracised. They cared little about
the Traver's set or the other Select"
guests of the hotel. Pearl spent her
days rowing her mother about among
the islands of the lake. There is an
amiable tradition that in this body
Of water there are 1865 islands, one
for every day in the year. In leap
year, so the story goes, an additional
island appears, which is lost to view
on the last day of December. There
were islands enough for everybody,

Feeding Farm Hands.

Every farmers wife knows what ire.
mendous appetites farm hands usually
have; but while they eat well they
work well, too.
Here's good suggestion about feed
ing farm hands. Give them plenty
of Quaker Oats. A big dish Of
Quaker Oats porridge with sugar and
cream or milk is the greatest break
fast in the world for man who needs
vigor and strength for long days
work. The man that eats Quaker Oats
plentifully and often is the man who
does good work without excessive ia.

in Quaker Oats not found in other
foods, and for economy 1t is at the

Just what 1T means for farmer boy
TO 60 to college and get definite re-
suits out of it is being shown in the
work of the newer generation on west
ern farms. The result of training and
OF broader ideas is seen in the meth
DDS OF to-day as they take the place
OF those of the early settlers who
were hampered by the need of expert
ment and trial before they learned
what was best to do and how to do it.
Not every boy seeks an education
with the idea of being a farmer when
school is over, and when one does the
outcome is interesting. Such an ambi-
ton has animated one young man of
the western section and it has worked
out in practical results. His expert
ence Is good example of what edu-
cation means on the farm.
Il always wished to be farmer-a
dairy farmer" was the way James R.
Carver put it, as he stood at the door
OF the big barn on his fathers farm.
THAT was why went to college and
I spent my time trying to learn how
to be the best farmer possible"
1t was difficult to realize that this
frank-faced young man, clad in blue
overalls and dark shirt with wide
hat shading his bronzed face could
write "B. S., M. S." after his name
and that he had spent five years out
of the "a of his life in college halls.
He is master of half section of
fine bottom land equipped with build
ings and conveniences usually found
on modern farmers place.
But 1t was not up to his idea and
the changes that he has made and the
new ideas he has put into practice are
a good exhibit of what may be expect
ed in western farming in the future.
He had learned that grain is better
feed when ground and feed grinder
was put in. Then an elevator that
would carry the grain to storage
rooms above, where, if necessary, 49,
900 bushels can be cared for, was
added.
II do not propose to sell grain ex-
cept on foot; it's more profitable that
way" said he.
Pipes were laid carrying water to
all parts of the farmyard and to the
house, where the conveniences of a
city water system are enjoyed as a
part of his modern plan. Great tanks
give the cattle and hogs plenty Of
fresh water constantly and it requires
only the starting of the engine to set
all the machinery in motion.
