town buggtes in Texas and Oklahoma.
The company is by far the largest
jobber of vehicles in Texas, and these
five buggy men sell every year a suf-
flcient number of buggies to take up
the output of a small factory. They ham
die an immense number of Marshall
town buggies, and were anxious to see
and go thru the factory in this city.
They had also been to some of the
buggy factories in Michigan.
The statesmen were most favorably
impressed with the tMarshalltown fac
tory, which they declare to be a model
one. AS result of their visit they
will be better able to talk Marshall
town buggies" and incidentally adver-
tise Marshalltown. The buggies made
by the Marshalltown Buggy company
are known as "Marshalltown buggies, !"
are shipped as "Marshalltown buggies'
and advertised as "MarshalltoWn bug
gies"

Day Resulted in Total of $e,12a
Pledged - Will Raise Issue or Pro-
Neutrality-suspicious. Made Within
Church Memberships Only.

The money to finance BILLY" Sun
days evangelistic campaign in March
came easily Monday, and more than
was wanted. by s1,123 was pledged.
The finance committee, of forty mem
bers, started out Monday morning, and
before evening had not only the $4,000
desired, but s6,123 as a total amount Of
stock subscribed. Rev. James MCGEE
was chairman OF the finance commit
tee, which worked under the direction
Of the Marshalltown Evangelistic asso-
citation.
A significant fact In connection with
the, raising OF the guaranty fund to
finance the Sunday meetings was that
only members of the different churches
We're solicited to take stock. While no
money is actually paid in the transact
ton, these guarantors for s6.123 stand
ready to pay the amounts they have
subscribed. should the meetings not
pay out. Heretofore, however. it is
said that there has never been time
but that the meetings were more than
self-sustaining. Whatever is left is
always turned over to some charitable
cause or institution.
In the financial campaign OF Monday
the members of the Methodist church
were the largest subscribers. Within
that church a total of $2,100 was sub
scribed.
At meeting Of the evangelistic as
ISOLATION. called for this afternoon at
the Methodist church, 1t will be de-
cided whether or not the stock issue
will be increased to the amount al
ready pledged, or whether the amount
over and above the original $4,000 be
prorated among the stockholders. The
largest stock subscriptions were 800.
Several were as low as 81, and the
average was $40.

the former home Of Mrs. Sawin's ia
Their, j. P. Hemmingson, 311 North
Third avenue, S. H. Bsekman, who has
been living in the house, filed a charge
of breaking and entering against Mr..
Sawin. Mr.. Sawin gave bond for his
appearance, and the hearing was set
for Jan -. Beekman's attorney claims
that Sawin took possession of the
house when there was no one at home,
and, that the household furniture was
moved out Beekman claims to have a
lease on the place until March 1.
The claims Of Mr.. Sawin's attorney
are directly opposite. He says Beck
man and his wife were employed to
take care of Mr.. Hemmingsen, and
that they had no lease on the house;
also that they were supposed to pay
rent from the time Mr.. tHemmingsen
was taken to Chicago, but that they re-
fused to do so. They had no lease, 1t
lis claimed, and Sawin took possession
of the house when it was unoccupied.
The goods were moved out, it is al
legged, by the administrator OF the
Hemmingsen estate.

Laurence Clifton Jones. the only col
ored graduate of the Marshalltown
, high school is making good in the
south.
AT the head of the academic depart
ment of tile Utica Normal and Indus
trial Institute, at Utica, Miss. he is
deeply interested in one Of the great
est lines OF human development = the
advancement of a race that is only 9
few years out Of slavery.
The Inspiration to do something
came to Laurence Jones as a boy In
Marshalltown. He realized that his
race was still in the midst Of strug-
gle, and determined to better himself
II possible. The fact that he was
poor was not barrier. He entered
high school and worked his way by
waiting tables at the Pilgrim and do
ing other odd jobs. He was encour-
aged by Ids teachers. Superintendent,
Crane took a. liking ito him and urged
him on to higher aims. Principal e. U
Graft and C. E. Quaife, as his teach
ers, also encouraged him by their help
and kind words.
Jones graduated from the high school
with the class Of '03, but was not sat
isfied. He wanted a college educa-
+, ton. He went to the state university
and there caught the larger vision. He
worked his way thru s. U. I, There he
also met encouragement, at the hands
of Professors Bolton, Shambaugh, Will
cox, Anslay, Mcbride, and Dorcas. He
finished at the university with the
class Of '0s. and Immediately went to
the southern school, where a position
was open to him. Il
The Utica institute was founded
Oct. %, 1903. Andrew Carnegie made
a gift Of 5000 to the endowment fund
on Jan. 10, 1908, and Mrs. Leeds, OF
New York City, gave another $4,000
last August to establish scholarship
for the education OF poor girls In 1907
the school received a bequest Of $10.-
900 by the late F. B Quinn, OF Cali
