OBITUARY.
FRAvEL.

Peter Fravel born August 18th, 1889,
died Jan. 14th, 1909, age SO years,
months and 27 days. Born in Rhrinish,
Bavaria Germany, near Kaiser Lantern.
Came to America at age of Z years
with his parents, settled near Buffalo,
N. Y. In 1858 moved to Stevenson
county, ILL.,, where in 1862 he was mar
ried to Lucy Harmon. To this union
three children were born, Georgia H.
who died in infancy, Elbert E., Julius
E. who with their mother survive him.
Also three brothers and one sister Dan
Fravel of Nashville, Tenn, Henry
Fravel of Westbrook, Mimi, and Will
liam of Kinsley, Kansas, Mrs. Caro-
line Klingle of Cresco. Ia, besides
five grandchildren and about twenty
nephews and nieces to mourn his death.
Deceased came to Iowa and settled
in the fall of 1864, and the next spring
moved on the farm where he has re-
sided ever since.
Funeral occurred from his late home
and interment in New Oregon cemetery,
conducted by Rev. Hill.

Paving Proposed.

Elsewhere appears notices of pro-
posed action by the city council looking
to the paving of the principal business
streets of Cresco. 1t is universally
conceded that our business streets are
in wretched condition and that their
immediate improvement is necessary.
Whether this improvement shall be
temporary, as in the past, or perma-
nent, with up-to-date brick paving, is
the question, and we believe that the
almost unanimous decision of the tax
payers and property owners affected
by the measure, will be in favor of
permanent improvement. Enough
money has been spent in the past in an
effort to keep the business streets in
condition to pave the streets twice
over, and while the expense of paving
will be considerable, when once COM
pleted will call for no farther expense
for years to come. The expense of
the paving will be borne by the prop
erty owners on the streets paved, the
expense of paving adjacent to the
streets and alleys and city property
being paid out of the city's general
f1pd

Married in ST. Paul.

An interesting wedding of today was
that of Thomas F. Geraghty, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John C. Geraghty, Fair
mount avenue, and Miss Marcella Can
non, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Cannon of Cresco, Iowa, and sister of
DR.. Harry Cannon and John M. Cannon,
who were married this morning at St.
Luke's church by the Rev. Ambrose
McNulty. Miss Mary Kenny was Miss
Cannon's maid of honor and Martin
Kennedy, Jr., was the best man. The
wedding was Q quiet one, only the
families and close friends being pres
ent. A wedding breakfast was served
at the home of John M. Cannon, after
which Mr.. and Mrs. Geraghty took the
morning train for Seattle, where the
groom is engaged in business. st.

SCHOOL NOTES.

The first half year closed with final
examinations in all grades above the
third, on Friday. and the second seme-
ster began with full attendance Mon
day.
New subjects offered this semester
in the High School are Commercial,
Arithmetic, Commercial Law, and Com
mercial Geography. :. A new class has
been started in Botany also. The re-
port cards showing the grades and ex-
animation marks for the half year were
sent out on Monday.
The basket ball boys have made an
excellent record this year. They play
clean, fast, and accurate game, and
deserve large degree of.support from
the lovers of athletics. They have
played seven games against other High
Schools this year, and have come out
with the following excellent record:
Cresco %, New Hampton 20.
Cresco %, New Hampton IA.
Cresco "a, Decorah 25.
Cresco 26, Decorah 16.
Cresco 13, Lime Springs II.
Cresco Ia, Charles City 81.
Cresco 55, Calmar IL.
The next home game will be against
the heavy and fast Lime Springs team.
and the best game of the year will re-
suit. After we play Lime Springs, we
hope to persuade the athletic authori-
ties at Charles City to permit their
team to come to Cresco for a return
game. Austin will also play here in
the near future.
The High School literary societies
have planned a series of programs COW
ering the rest of the winter session.
The first joint program will be given
on Friday afternoon, Jan. 29th. in the
High School room. This program will
be Lincoln program, to which all are
invited. On Feb. Goth a Washington
program will be given, and the Grand
Army and the Woman's Relief Corps
will be invited to be our guests of
honor on that day. At the close of the
winter term, series of five programs
will be given by the grades and High
School, at which time an art and school
exhibit will be held.

ST PER YEAR
In Five Minutes.

Take your sour stomach-or maybe
you calliit Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas
tritis or Catarrh of Stomach; it doesn't
matter-take your stomach trouble
right with you to your Pharmacist and
ask him to open 50-cent case of Pa
pes Diapepsin and let you eat one %
grain Triangule and see if within five
minutes there is left any trace of your
stomach misery.
The correct name for your trouble is
Food Fermentation-food souring; the
Digestive organs become weak, there
is lack of gastric juice; your food is
only half digested, and you become af-
fected with loss of appetite, pressure
and fullness after eating, vomiting,
nausea, heartburn, gripping in bowels.
tenderness in the pit of stomach, bad
taste in mouth, constipation, pain in
limbs, sleeplessness, belching of gas,
biliousness, sick headache, nervousness,
dizziness and many other similar symp-
toms.
If your appetite is tickle, and moth
ing tempts you, or you belch gas or if
you feel bloated after eating, or your
food lies like lump of lead in your
stomach, you can make up your mind
that at the bottom of all this there is
but one use-fermeptationIof undigest-
ed food.
Prove to yourself, after your next
meal, that your stomach is as good as
any; that there is nothing really wrong.
Stop this fermentation and begin eat
ing what you want without fear of dis
comfort of misery.
Almost instant relief is waiting for
you 1t if merely matter of how
soon you take little Diapepsin.

HELPING WINSTEADS.
Charitable People Come to Relief of
Unfortunate Man.

Since the report of the helpless cir
cumstances of the Winstead family at
835 Monroe street, the people of To-
peka are responding. This morning
about $40 was sent to Mr.. l. ]. Hilty
for the purpose of buying supplies and
fuel for the family and food of all
kinds has been left at the door of the
home last evening and this morning
and afternoon The rush of sympa-
cumstances was so great this morning
that Mrs. Winstead found it neces-
sary to place a card on the door ask
ing that the kind people be a little quiz
eter in their efforts. Mr.. Winstead was
overjoyed at the kindness of the neigh
bors and friends and the nervous
strain, causing a relapse, made it nee
essary for a sign to be placed upon
the door-Mrs. Winstead meeting the
people on the steps and receiving the
contributions.
There has been a rather small re-
port going around over the city to the
gether unnecessary and the Provident
Association issued a statement saying
that family did not need such a con-
tribution. According to the doctor in
attendance upon the unfortunate man
and Mayor Green who has investigated
the case, the family is in sore need of
all that can be given to them and the
cause is a good one. 1t seems that the
whole fight is to do away with the
Sunday night performance at the Nov
city theater which has been proposed
Chief Eaton says that he will never
allow such a performance to be pre-
scented. Mayor Green is greatly in IA

THE UTILITIES BILL.
Both Reports Ordered Printed-Mr.
Morgan Explains.

When the judiciary committee made
majority and minority reports this
afternoon on the utilities bill as per the
Morgan motion of last Tuesday when
the bill was sidetracked, there was a
grand row on in no time
cunningham of Cowley moved that
the bills reported by both sections Of
the committee be printed and placed
under special orders for the last of the
Ryan of Brown offered a substitute
that called for Immediate action After
an acrimonious debate Ryan charged
the administration forces with being
ton
The Cunningham motion prevailed
and the utilities bill dropped back into
its old habit of dalliance and delay.
When asked today about his posi-
ton in regard to the utilities bill and
the criticism to which he has been
subject recently by certain news
papers, W. Y. Morgan of Reno, author
of the motion that sent the bill back
to committee, said:
Il was and am still honestly in IA
vor of control of utilities-by home
rule, however instead of by commits
sion as first proposed in the bill
Surely member may be allowed his
own opinion of what best constitutes
control of utilities. In my town Of
Hutchinson the city council has just
brought suit against the water, gas
and light plants for adequate service.
Surely 1 may be pardoned in wishing
to place control of Hutchinson utilities
in the hands of the Hutchinson coun-
Gil rather than in the hands of a state
commission in Topeka 1 have been
accused of placing the fatal obstacle
of delay in front of the utilities bill
through my motion. This charge was
refuted today when the special COM
mittee reported two bills back to the
house when my motion of Tuesday
only called for one
