SHOOK HANDS WITH VAN BUREN,.

Madrid Reporter News.l
Mr.. r. D. Clark, who has recently be-
come a citizen of Madrid, was born
near Terre Haute, Ind. in 1881. He
has distinct recollection Of the
time that President Martin Van
Buren, made tour of the states.
This was in 1899. At that time Mr..
Clark's father lived near town called
Cloverland, ten miles east of Terre
Haute, on the great thoroughfare,
known as the national road. There
were no railroads in the state of In
diana at that time President Van
Buren, rode in a four horse stage
The announcement was made that on
a certain morning in the month of
October, 1889, the president would pass
thru Cloverland on his way from In
dianapolis to Terre Haute but the stage
would only stop long enough to change
horses. Altho Mr.. Clark was only s
years old, he walked distance of two
miles that morning to see the president
of the United States, and shook hands
with him. Mr.. Clark says that Presi-
dent Van Buren, was clearly shaven,
had a round face and large bright eyes.
The president did not get out OF the
coach but the people gathered around
1t and shook hands with him while
the change of horses took place.

Some cities have established free golf

come to curdle the milk of human

what the railways particularly do not

from the evils of the old vicious sys-

The figures Of the population Of the
United States at the decennial CEN
suses as supplied by the census bu-
reau show the total number Of negroes
in the year 1900 as 100000, speaking
in round terms, and in 1900, s,S41 900.
The negroes formed in 1900, 1888 per
cent Of the population; in 1910, 1903
per cent; in 1850, 1858 per cent; in
1850, 1412 per cent; in 1880, 1911 per
cent: in 1890, 1872 per cent; and in
1900, 1859 per cent.
1t Is interesting to observe, for ex-
ample. from the figures OF the areas
Of the various states and territories
with which the volume opens, that the
total continental area, including Alas
ka. is about equal to that Of all Eu-
rope; that while the area conceded to
the thirteen original states by the
peace treaty of 1888 was $4,000 square
miles their present area is but $4,000
square miles, the other 100000 square
miles forming in whole or in part thir-
teen other states, while the remaining
twenty four states and territories were
created from territory added by pur-
chase or annexation. OF the 90 mil

practically one-third, speaking in
round terms, are found in the thirteen

A BIAS THE COLLAR.


What can you expect Of a man who
wears a celluloid collar?" is Bert
Keltzs sententious remark about
the charge specifically and without
reserve. He declares the chief ex-
ecutive of the state of Iowa to be
guilty of sartorial crime in regard
to his neckwear and talks like man
who is able to back up his stateemnt
with proof. If Mr.. Keltz is stating
fact the people of Iowa have a right
to rise up as ane man and demand
either the governors resignation or a
change Of collar from celluloid to
linen. The laundrymen of the state,
and the washerwomen as well, should
never suffer under such an indignity
at the hands, or rather, the neck,
of the governor OF the state. The
dignity of the great commonwealth of
Iowa is at stake and the matter should
be investigated by committee Of
Cummins men at the very earliest op-
portunity. Let there be light on the
governors collar.
STILL HAS THE HUNTING COW.
Sam Squires, near Algona, still
cherishes his breed of hunting cows
and is doing great execution with
them, says the Courier. His present
leading hunter is tall COW, so tall
that he has to stoop but very little to
conceal himself from the ducks or
other game that he is after. He puts
a hitching rein on her as he would on
a horse and starts toward the flock of
ducks, geese or cranes that may be in
sight. and she needs but little guiding.
When he wants to get little closer
to the birds he pushes against her
side, and she takes the hint and moves
in the right direction. Then Sam
rests his gun on her nesk or on her
back, or shoots under her in any old
way and he always gets some meat.
He ties the birds together and throws
them across her back, and finally
comes home with the COW all covered
with game. He gave one of this breed
Of cows to his son John, and this
spring so far John has killed 100 mall
lards, forty-six geese and thirty-two
cranes. We have spoken for a calf.
