Minneapolis, May IA T. Oberg, of
Crescent, Iowa, a farmer, was arrested
here yesterday while shouting for the
police, saying that he had been robbed
of nearly $4,000. He was arrested anu
charged with drunkenness.
Oberg admits that he had been
drinking and having good time in a
saloon on Washington avenue, south,
and he has a faint recollection of some
body going thru his pockets. AS evil
dence of good faith he showed bank
book and check book on a Crescent
bank.
Oberg says he sold his farm a few
days ago and came to Minneapolis to
have a good time and look for more
land. He does not remember what
happened night before last. The thieves,
hes aid, overlooked $50 in cash which
he carried in a side pocket.
The police do not think the Iowa man
had as much money as he claimed.

Floyd Roberts, youngest son Of John
Roberts, of Round Grove farm, met
with a horrible accident by the explos-
ion of q dynamite cap. Both hands
were badly torn, but his left received
the full force, tearing away a finger
and otherwise mangling the whole
hand, pieces of the brass shell being
driven into the palm. The lad, a
youngster about s years of age, had
taken the caps unknown to his father,
who was using them to discharge dyna-
mite cartridges to blow up stumps, and
while at school attempted, under his
desk, to pick the cap with a pin.
Davenport.
F. Milo Lobdell, Of Davenport, has
the, record of being the most rapid
census enumerator OF the Second dis

in about nine hours, and at the same
time doing efficient work. He alone
enumerated one-eighteenth of the pop
ulation Of Davenport. His ability in
this line is due chiefly 2to rapid PEN
manship, combined with shorthand,
and a conversational knowledge of
several foreign languages. Mr.. Lob
dell has accepted an appointment in
the census bureau at Washington, to
which he goes some time this month.

giving a verdict in favor of the party

Several years ago a dog belonging to

of Thompson, both residents of this

at the trial of the case the jury dis
agreed. In the second trial the jury
gave a verdict in favor of Thompson
for $3.50, but Judge Wright before
whom the case was tried, gave an
erroneous instruction and ordered a
new trial, which has just closed, and
in which Thompson is given verdict
for $50 The trial each time occupied
two days and a good many witnesses
were present for both sides. The first
trial was before Judge Albrook, the
second before Judge Wright, and the

Federal AID FOR ROADS.
Senate Reports F%avorabIy on Highway
Bill Appropriatinq $4,000

Aid from the federal government Is
possible for roadmaking. A bill has
been favorably reported from the SEN
ate committee on agriculture provid-
ing for an appropriation of $500,OoO to
be expended in cooperative road build
ing. States or counties receiving the
benefit Of this aid would be required
by the bill to duplicate the sums used
in their territory.
The fundamental object of the bill is
to disseminate scientific knowledge Of
road construction and maintenance so
as to increase the interest in good
roads and in the means of securing
them economically. The appropriation
would amount to only about l per cent
of the total appropriation for rural
delivery, and it is estimated that the
resultant improvement of roads would
so facilitate the travel of rural carriers
as to save this amount in the long run.
Tile annual expenditure for country
roads in the United States from all
sources at the present time probably
exceeds $9O,000,000. and it is estimat-
ed that half of this is wasted through
unwise administration and faulty meth.
DDS of construction and maintenance.
The expert advice and supervision OF
work that would be possible with fed.
eral cooperation and the strips Of good
roads which their work would place
for the inspection and use of the peo
pie would hasten the time of univer
sally improved highways in this o
