Minister Becomes
Night Patrolman
Mason City Pastor Puts on Blue Uni
form for Experiences
Sake.

MASON CITY, Ia. June 29.-(special)-
Doffing the robes OF the church for the blue
uniform of a patrolman OF the city's force.
Rev. w. w. Carlton, pastor of the First
Methodist church of this city, Will serve on
the night police force for at least one night.
The force is short a man, and when Mayor
Kirschman suggested this fact to Rev. Mr..
Carlton he offered to go on the job for at
least one night, simply for the experience,
Rev. Mr.. Carlton is the preacher who came
into the limelight OF publicity a few months
ago by being offered and refusing the place
of chief Of police. one of the conditions OF
the agreement by which the preacher
serves on the force is that the mayor will
prosecute any case the preRcher-policeman
brings to him during the time he is on
duty. Just what Rev. Mr.. Carlton intends
to accomplish by making this agreement
a part of the bargain he has not divulged.

PROTECT sALOoNKEEPERs

Old Ordinance Relative to Minors
and to Be Enforced.
Woe betide any jag cure graduate or
minor who hereafter shall enter a saloon
In Council Bluffs and partake of a drink
Of intoxicating liquor. Announcement lie
made by the municipal authorities that an
ordinance Of somewhat ancient vintage is to
be taken out of the cellar and uncorked, or
in other words is to be henceforth rigidly
enforced. The ordnance in question is to
be enforced for the protection of the retail
liquor dealers who have been given some
hard knocks recently. The ordinance is
known as No. 2e9, and provides:
That all minors. habitual d~runkards and
all persons who ave taken any of the So
called cures for drunkenness, who shall
enter any store, building or place where
intoxicating liquors are sold, or kept for
sale, within the city limits of the city of
Council Bluffs with the intent to purchase,
receive or drink any intoxicating liquors OF
any kind therein; or who shall loiter in
any store, building or place, or who shall
purchase, receive or drink any intoxicating
liquor of any kind therein, shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor.
The penalty for violation of any Of the
provisions OF this ordinance Is a fine of not
less than IS nor more than $50.
In discussing the matter yesterday,
Major George II. Richmond, chief of po-
lice, said: while so many restrictions are
being placed around the saloon men, 1t
seems to me as it does to other city Of
f~icials, that they are entitled to some pro-
lection as well. II they are not TO sell to
~runkard and minors, the drunkards and
minors should be kept away from their
places. 1t is my intention to ask the sa-
loon men to furnish me with the names OF
all persons coming under the restrictions
of this ordinance who ma attempt to vio-
late its provisions

slight Injury Causes Death.

SIOUX FALLS, s.. D., June 2~s.-(Special.)
As the result of ar apparently trivial in
jury, James Pike. one OF the best known
farmers in the vicinity of Aurora, is dead.
He was engaged in blowing his corn and
while riding the corn pillow the seat Of the
machine chafed him. Although the injury
was quite painful, he thought little OF It
at the time, and apparently never dreamed
that It endangered his life. Some days
later, however, blood poisoning developed.
This, with the complication OF a weak
heart, made It impossible for the physicians
TO save his life.

at = N. 10th St Mrs. -
In a beautiful two-story house, located
near Capitol avenue? Omaha, Neb., lived
Mr.. and Mrs. J. b. Martin and their four
small children. The Oldest child was Q
years old. She had been a cripple all her
life and had to be taken care of as a baby.
They had asked several of the best doc
tors In the state, but they had given her
case up rs inourable.
In this house also were five boarders,
and Mrs. Martin had all the work to do.
1T cannot stand It much longer, II I
don't get some one to help me-" Mrs.
Martin would say when her husband re-
turned in the evening.
After advertising for sometime in sew
eral papers there came a girl to apply for
the position. She was very good at first,
but after working here for several months
there was q great change In her; she began
to get careless and cross and these are
SOM OF the things she would do: Rise
about 7:06 a. M. let the bread burn in the
oven. break dishes very often. and would
always be late in getting meals.
One day there was TO be a party at this
house and Mrs. Martin had this girl do
extra work. This made her very angry.
When she was going TO make the cake she
made various mistakes. She used two cup
fulls OF salt in II instead Of sugar. and in
stead OF using extract for flavor she used
cough medicine. Imagine the taste of that
cake.
Mrs. Martin did not know this. so when
the cake was cut and passed to the guests
there was great excitement. The party
broke up and everybody went home, some
feeling very sick from II, When Mr., Mar
tin came home In the evening he was told
everything hat had happened. He then
went to the girl and said: Leave this
place at once. and DO not come back
again" She ala as she was told, feeling
very sorry over what she ala.
Mrs. Martin now had all the work TO
herself. She knew n she did not get help
she could not stand II. She ala her best
for a long time, but finally she took sick
and had to remain IN bed for some time.
Mr., Martin then thought II best TO ad-
vertise again. This time he advertised in
the Omaha Bee, and with great success.
Three DAYS after he put in the advertise
ment they had employed another girl. She
aid everything nicely and was always
happy, So Mrs. Martin was soon we'll.
She IL still working AZ this place and
everyone IL satisfied so 1T pays to ad-
