Meeting of Bar Association.

The meeting of the Ardmore Bar
association that was to have been held
at the district court room Friday
night was postponed until Monday
morning at 10 a. m.
The reason for this was from the
fact that many of the attorneys were
out of town.
Secretary Shelton stated yesterday
that he had assurance that the meet
ing Monday would be largely attend
ed as there were many questions of
Importance to come before the body.

AKERS
SAYS ENFORCEMENT
SAYS CITIZENS MUST DO THEIR
DUTY AS WELL AS OFFICERS
TO OBTAIN RESULTS.

1t has been intimated that the
city authorities and the sheriff S
force of the county were not work
ing in harmony in the cleanup CAM
paign just iaugurated, but the fol
lowing from Sheriff Akers yesterday
will prove conclusively that those
who were imbued with that idea
were mistaken. In speaking of the
matter, Mr.. Akers said: You can
say for me that I am heartily in
favor with the movement, and the
sheriffs force of this county will
render every possible aid to the
cleaning up of the town and coun-
ty We have been criticized some
in the past, but / want to say that
if the citizens of the county had
done their duty as we'll as the Off
GERS there would be little need fol-
cleanup crusade at this time. For
instance, we have caused innumera-
bic arrests, and the cases have gone
to trial before a jury, but as was
stated in a recent article of the
the best business and
professional men of Ardmore when
summoned to serve as jurors, would
with excuses 10 be relieved
Of jury duty. Now, | believe that
the jurors of the county are honest.
but when you empanel a jury that
are unacquainted with local condi-
tions, and they listen to the pre-
ponlerance of the evidence that the
defendant usually has, there is but
one thing for them TO do, and that
is acquit. On the other hand, if
the jury was composed of men who
were acquainted Win local condi- |
tions, and able to give proper cred
ibility to the testimony of the wit |
nesses, you would have noted
change of conditions.
"Yes, We shall certainly work to- |
gether in this matter and will make |
this a clean town and county, but |
we must work together, and the citi-
zens are as much responsible as the |
officers. Let's all get together and |
results that are permanent will be |
accomplished"

LOST WEST POINT
MAN NOW HOME
Ed Lewis Arrives From Kansas City,
Passing Through keokuk En-
route Back Home.

Ed. T. Lewis, the West Point man
who disappeared from his home some
time ago, causing considerable COM
ment by his sudden departure, was in
Keokuk for few minutes Sunday
evening, while passing through on the
K line train, going from Quincy to
Fort Madison. Monday morning he
took train out of Fort Madison to
his home in West Point, and is once
more back with his relatives.
1t seems that Lewis was i'll at the
time of the disappearance and lis
sickness is given as the reason for
the fact that instead of going back to
West Point from his trip to Farming
ton he continued on toward Kansas
When it became known that the man
had large amount of money with
him. several were of the opinion that
he had been wavlaid and done away
with by some robber. Lewis, how
ever. says that save for the amount
paid for board doctor bills, ETC., he
still has the $1,000.
Upon his arrival in Fort Madison
Sunday from Kansas City and Column

was looked after and that he boarded
the right train for home.

EUGENE BLAIR's PLAY
This Picture Promises to be Treat
to the Lovers Of the Silent
Drama Who Attend
Dodges.

Tomorrow night at Dodge's will be
shown a pictorial presentation of the
long popular story by Charles Reade.
Technically excellent, it is a notable
addition to the already long list OF
Edison picture dramas.
The novel is brilliant one. full of
dramatic suggestion Wealth and pen.
ury are contrasted; scenes OF riotous
extravaganza change to those If hun
ger and misery; charity and goodness
of heart is Pegs character at one
moment, and next she is selfish and
arrogant But the point to have
brought out was that, with all her
faults, Peg Wellington was at heart
a good woman.
The theatre goer's of Keokuk will
remember four or five years ago when
Epgenie Blair appeared at the Grand
opera house playing Camille at the
matinee and Peg Wellington at tnnI
evening performance. This great
drama left favorable impression
and the picture to be shown at
Dodges tomorrow night will no doubt
bring back the scenes of the play and
will leave the same impression as
the production made at the grand
opera house several years ago.
Two complete shows will be given
tomorrow night, the first at 7:45 and
the second at 8 o'clock.

STUBBORN ECZEMACASES
YIELD TO POSLAM
Called Greatest Skin Remedy in
Europe or America"

"Poslam did for my wife, who is
spending the winter abroad, what
no doctor could do. Half the jar en-
tirely cured her of the most disfig-
uring form of scaly eczema, which
simply covered her face Fourteen
days after the first application her
face was fair, smooth and without a
spot or blemish. We look upon it as
nothing short of miracle. 1t is the
greatest skin remedy we have ever
found either in Europe or America
and we have tried celebrated special
lists, all sorts of cures and many pat
ent remedies This statement, made
by Mr.. A. E. Gardner, of Bridgeport,
Conn, is but one of the thousands Of
similar expressions regarding the ac-
tual accomplishments of poslam in
the eradication of every form of skin
disase, eczema, acne, letter, BARRIERS
Itch, psoriasis, shingles, etc., besides
the minor skin affectations (such as
pimples, blemishes, red noses, hives,
fever blisters), in which results are
seen SO rapidly.

Mrs. Bell Norman and Daughter
Struck by Way Freight Near
Mendon, III and Seriously
Injured.
COULD NOT SEE TRAIN
High Corn Hid View of Track
Horse Was Killed and Buggy
smashed-occupants Not
Fatally Injured.

Hidden from view by high stand
ing corn, the accommodation way
freight on the Carthage branch of
the Burlington railNoad bore down
upon Mrs. Belle Workman and daugh-
ter, Miss Rachael, as they were driv-
ing to their home, a mile west of
Mendon, last evening about o'clock,
throwing them forty feet from the
crossing and injuring them badly,
though probably not fatally. The
horse was instantly killed and the
buggy smashed into kindling wood.
Mrs. Norman sustained a fracture
of the collar bone, and was also gen.
orally bruised. Whether she was in
ternally injured can not yet be ascer.
tanned, but it is thought the fracture
and external injuries are the most
serious. Her daughter sustained a
fracture of several ribs on the left
side, and she was also bruised con-
siderably.
There were no witnesses to the ac-
cident except the enginemen and the
women, but from the situation Of the
crossing, the approach of which is
lined with high standing corn, it is
evident that the women drove upon
the track without knowing of the i'm
pending danger. The estimated speed
of the train was fifty miles an hour,
and when it struck the buggy hurled
it forty feet from the crossing. A
shaft was run through the horses
body, and it was dead when found.
Drs. Knapp and Vessels were sum.
moned Immediately after the accident
and rendered aid to the injured wo.
men before their being taken to a
nearby farm house. DR.. Johnson, OF
Quincy, was called in consultation.

USE FEET AS HANDS.
A Custom Somewhat Common Among
the Yellow Races,

A French savant. NJ. Lannelongue, in
communication to the Paris Acad-
envy OF Sciences maintains that among
the yellow races, the Chinese, the Jap
anese and the Malays. the foot is used
as an organ of prehension. like the
hand. to a far greater extent than is
generally supposed. He says that while
in Tokyo he saw young man sitting
in theater box grasping the rail with
his feet just as though they were hands,
ever and anon using his right foot to
scratch his left thigh. The fact that
the japanese usually sit on their heels
at meals and in the house develops
the feet and toes. and the prehensive
function Is still further encouraged by
the fact that the Japanese who adhere
to the ancient customs wear forked
stockings and dispense with the inf1ex-
ible and constraining European shoe.
Chinese postmen navigate their boats
lying down, steering with their hands
and rowing with their feet The oar
is held between the big toe and the
others. The natives frequently use
their feet TO collect and to pick up
small objects lying OH the ground, and
sometimes even catch mice with their
toes. M. LannelonSue holds that the
yellow races. who are able to use their
feet SON., what as the elephant uses
his trunk or the monkey his tail, enjoy
very considerable advantage in the
everlasting struggle for existence over
the less fortunate Caucasians. who are
able to employ their feet only for loco
motion purposes.-P Philadelphia Ledger.

interest in the Controversy of the
Theatrical Syndicate and
the owners.

Much interest is manifested by the
public regarding the controversy be-
tween the Theatrical Syndicate and
the Theatre Owners Association,
(the open door advocates). The fol
lowing is from Klaw & Erlanger in
the Dramatic News of July 90, re-
garding the dropping of Mr.. Savage
by the syndicate:
"On June %, shortly after his re-
turn from Europe, Henry w. Savage
issued statement to the newspapers
In which he said that hereafter his
attractions would book direct with
the National Theatre Owners Asso-
citation wherever the syndicate, rep
resented by Frohman, Klaw & Err
LANCER, had no theatres, but other
wise would book with Frohman, Klaw
& Erlanger theatres. In other words,
as several of the papers put it, he
was going to be on both sides.
This was in direct contradiction
of the statement signed on May 81,
by him, David Belasco, Charles Froh-
man, Henry B. Harris, Frederic
Thompson, Charles Dillingham;, Cohan
q Harris, Jos. Brooks, A. H. Woods.

fractions named in the list therein set
forth would be booked through any of
the various agencies Composing the
National Theatre Owners Association,
but that the time would be booked as
heretofore through the offices of Klaw
& Erlanger. Mr.. Savage's declaration
has been held in allegiance until the
return to this country of all the par.
ties interested.
ION the arrival of Mr.. Frohman
and Mr.. Dillingham; from Europe on
last Friday, conference of produc
ing managers was held, and on Mon
day Mr.. Savage was notified that his
position was untenable and that he

Statue to Philin Sidney.

The name of Sir Philip Sidney is.
of course, held nigh in honor among
Dutchmen, who cannot forget that
when he died at Zutphen, in 1856. he
was fighting in their cause against
Spain. A committee has recently
been formed at Zutphen to arrange
for the erection of statue to Sidney
at that place, and subscriptions are
appealed for not only in Holland but
in Great Britain.
