Burglars Rob McKarahan's Store.

The Herald of Grinnell has the fol-
lowing concerning burglary at Grin
nell, which occurred q week ago Satur-
day night.
J. NJ. McKarahan's store now has
added to it's stock, two fine LeFevre
double barreled, hammerless shotguns,
a safety police revolver, and % pocket
knives, which were not there when the
store was opened for business, Monday
morning. And in the city Jail reposes
"Scotty" Gibson, Des Moines man,
with a police record, accused of stealing
the articles mentioned.
The theft was committed on Satur-
day night, entrance being secured to
the store through rear window, which
was pried up with a pinch bar. The thief
opened the doors at the rear so that es-
cape would be easy and then went to
work leisurely, helping himself to the
best of the portable goods.
Mr.. McKarahan discovered his loss
when he went into the store on Sunday
to look over his mail. A hurried in
ventory showed that goods worth about
$3.50 had been taken, besides the small
amount left in the cash drawer.
The police were notified instantly,
who notified the officers in neighboring
cities. Gibson was arrested while he
was trying to sell the revolver to a
pawnbroker. He was sweated little
while, and finally gave information
which lead to the recovery of the other
property. One of the shotguns had
been sold, and the other, with the peck
ct knives, We're found in the hay loft
of feedshed.
The Des Moines police notified Mr..
McKarahan who, with Marshal Shahan
went to Des Moines by the next train
identified the property, and brought
Gibson back to Grinnell, where he
waived examination, and was sent to

Audubon Buys New Standpipe.

The City Council made contract
Monday night for new standpipe or
water tank, whichever you may please
to call it. Their thought had been to
move the present tank off the founda-
ton, and use it while building new
one on the old foundation. Those bid
ding on the job didn't want anything
to do with moving the old tank for fear
it wouldn't hold together. So bids were
also taken en- bran new tank and the
Des Moines Bridge Company got the
contract at $247S which was less than
a hundred dollars more than the bid for
building on the old foundation. More
over the town has the use of the present
tank all the time the new one is being
erected. The whole outfit will be steel,
and an estimate is made that it will last
for fifty years. The Semi spherical
bottom will rest on steel posts and be
about II feet above the surface of the
ground. The tank itself is some 35 feet
high, and will hold $4,000 gallons of
water. 1t is believed that the Council
has done much better in securing new
outfit all through than to have followed
the original notion of building on an old
foundation.

An Omission In a Wedding Ceremony
That Didn't Count.
A distinguished officer of the United
States navy once told this story on
himself:
At the time of his marriage he had
been through the civil war and had
had many narrowing experiences
aboard ship. through all of which he
kept courage and remained as calm
as a brave man should. As the time
for the ceremony came on. however.
his calmness gradually gave way. At
the altar. amid the blaze of brass but
tons and gold lace marking the full
stampeded. and what went on there
seemed very much mixed to him.
Fearing the excitement OF the moment
would temporarily take him Off his
feet, the officer had learned the mar
riage ceremony letter perfect. as he
thought, and he remembered repeating
the words after the minister I'm me-
chanlcal sort of way.
After the ceremony was over and all
was serene again, including the off,
GERS state Of mind, the kindly clergy
man came up to him and touched him
on the shoulder.
Look here, old man." he said; "you
didn't endow your wife with any
worldly goods"
Whats that?" asked the bridegroom
with something Of establishment I'm his
voice.
why, repeated the sentence with
all my worldly goods l thee endow'
several times, and despite my efforts
you would not say 1t after me-"
The bridegroom seemed perturbed
for a moment. and then a beaming
light came into his face.

didn't lose blessed thing by my fail
ure."-Exchange.
