FORTUNES INVOLVED
IN SOLDIER RIVER
DRAINAGE PROBLEM
Case Row on Trial to Deter
mine Future Progress of
Important Work.

Logan. Ia. Jan. 2a-To the exclusion
of untried criminal cases the Soldier river
drainage case is being tried by Judge o.
ID. Wheeler, and it is thought that the
case will occupy the entire Week.
The Soldier river drainage project was
planned by Engineer j. s. Wattles of
Missouri Valley, and contemplates the di-t
version CT the river at the point of over
flow in the hills. and thence running in a.
ssouthwesterly direction into Dry lake.
thence into the Missouri river total dis
lance of sc miles. with total cost of
SloouJO for excavation. to which must be
added the damages now estimated at s60
t"V. The Soldier river drainage project,
as planned and approved is designed TO
reclaim 1900 acres of swamp and other
lands subject to overflow especially dur
ing high waters.
The Objections to the drainage project
as planned by Engineer Wattles and 9TH
ers may be briefly stated as follows: The
engineering drainage plan does not fol-
low the natural or general course OF
drainage of the Soldier; that j. S. Wat
lies IS not disnterested engineer as d-
rected by law: that the drainage law is
unconstitutional IN that it does not pro-
vide for damages possible damages
caused by changing the natural course of
stream there raising the water level in
the vicinity where there is no ris.lt-of-
way. that previous drainage projects sim
liar to the one in question have been fully
considered by the district courts and de-
cided against, and from the decisions no
appeals have been made on the part of
the promoters of the presnt plan OF drains
age.
To all of which the present promoters
reply that the present petitioners and
supervisors have acted under the new and
not under the old drainage law, that the
present plan is similar to tine plan of A.
M. Mum and c. G. Elliott. both rccog-
niZed as expert drainage engineers

GREAT HoAxEs OF HISTORY
Speaking of Cook, the Cardiff Giant,
Made in Chicago, Fooled Good
Many Parsons.


From the St. Joseph News-Press.
The Cardiff Giant, that petrfied, pre-
historic man hoax, certainly turned things
upside down when it was fed to a guilt
BILE public in 1865
w. G. Newell, an old farmer of Car
diff. N. Y. found" this specimen OF an
historic age, while digging we'll. The
figure lay like a giant at rest, with the
trunk of a tree gracefully reposing upon
its huge breast. News of the wonderful
find" spread throughout the land.
The giant made an immediate and enor-
nous stir Examined, discussed and in
dorsed by many men of scholarly stand
ing, it went with the public as true
specimen of strange historic being, and
proved big drawing card as museum
freak.
But the Cardiff Giant suffered the mis-
fortune that follows in the wake of pop
ularity-he was initiated and the bust
ness of taking the fake became exceed
ingly profitable. p. r. Barnum bought
the Cardiff Giant-the real one, he claimed
and carried it about the country for the
general edificaton of wonder seekers.
The Cardiff Giant is gone now, nobody
knows where. "IIe" disappeared from
view when it was learned that she" had
been manufactured in Chicago from
block of gypsum sent from Ohio and Sc
cretly buried in New York state to await
discovery at the hands of a guileless
farmer.

But finally an old playmate, who knew
iiardekopf so years ago in the fathers
land. asked him to marry her. He con-
scented, and now he is entitled to the
wedding gift left him, which has grown
to $4,000.
Hardekopf is 60 years old and his
wife is five years his Junior. Things
went fairly we'll with him until he got
past the age of 80, and he scorned to
ask woman to marry him in order TO

At that time friend came to live with
US, and l noticed that after he had
been with us a week he would not
drink his coffee any more. l asked
him the reason. He replied, I have
not had a headache since left of
drinking coffee, some months ago, till
last week, when began again. here at
your table. l don't see how anyone
can like coffee, anyway, after drinking
Postum!
Il said nothing, but at once ordered
a package Of Postum. That was five
months ago, and we have drank no
coffee since. except on two occasions
when we had company, and the result
each time was that my husband could
not sleep, but lay awake and tossed
and talked half the night. We were
convinced that coffee caused his suffer-
ing, so he returned to Postum, con.
WINGED that coffee was an enemy, in
stead of friend, and he is troubled
no more by insomnia.
Il, myself, have gained pounds
in weight, and my nerves have ceased

So the neighbors sadly said,
AS they gathered round his bed,
When they heard that he was dead
He caught a little cold,
That was ALL (Puck.)

Neglect of cough or cold often
leads to serious trouble. To break up
cold in twenty-four hours and cure
any cough that is durable mix two
ounces of Glycerine, a half-ounce of
Virgin Oil of Fine compound pure and
eight ounces of pure Whisky Take a
teaspoonful every four hours. You can
buy these at any good drug store and
easily mix them in a large bottle.
