LIFE AFUNNY PROPO SIIION.

A man comes into this worlb with
out his knowledge or consent and he
leaves without his will. During his
stay on earth his time is spent in one
continuous of contraries and misunder-
standings. In his infancy he is an an
gel; in his boyhood he is devil: in his
manhood he is everything from lizard
up; in his duties he is fool. If he rails
es family he is a chump; if he raises
q check he is thief, and then the law
raises Cain with him. II he is poor
man he has no sense IL he is a
rich man he is dishonest but considered
smart. If he is in politics he is graft
er and crook. If he is out of politics,
you cant place him and he is an un-
desirable citizen. If he goes to church,
he is a hypocrite, and if he stays away
from church he is sinner. If he do
mates TO foreign missions he does it for
show; if he doesn't, he is stingy and a
"tight wad." When he first comes
into the world everybody wants to kiss
ihim; before he goes out they all want
to kick him. If he dies young there
was a grand future before him; il he
lives TO ripe old age, he is only in the
way and he is living to save funeral ex-
penses. In order to be entirely healthy,
he must eat nothing, smoke nothing,
and see that the air is properly steril-
lied before breathing Life is funny

mended for passage, the committee stat

THE object of this bill is to prevent,

Iowa Field Meet Doomed.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa City, Dec. 1.-Altho no definite
action has been taken it is probable
that the Iowa state field meet is for
ever doomed and that the Missouri
Valley championship track and field
meet will take its place eventually.
1t was found last year that it was
impossible to hold the Missouri Valley
and Iowa state meet in Des Moines
and have both success, so the small
er event will be absorbed by the larger.
The one stumbling block is the like
lihood of Kansas City having stadium
so that the event will be held there ev-
cry other year instead of continually
in Iowa's capital. Des Moines wants a
big event every year and several dual
meets would never satisfy the athletic
followers of the state.

Clinton, Dec. 1. - Joseph Mcneil,
former member of the Clinton police
force, and a man with a long criminal
record, has just been arrested at Joliet,
ILL.,, for breaking and entering and is
facing a long term of servitude in the
Illinois penitentiary. He is the man
who a few years ago came to Clinton

deputy sheriff of this county, badly
wounding the officer whose work in
connection with former case against
him he always believes landed him in
prison, the chooting having been for
revenge.
MCNEIL was a member of the Clin-

In 1890 he was arrested for breaking
and entering, receiving a four years
sentence. Governor Boies pardoned him
