logan, Sept. 21.-Despite the fact
that Magnolia has electric lights for a
certainty, secured the next three meet
ings Of the Latter Day Saints reunion
for western Iowa, and is calling an
eelction for the purpose Of erecting a
monument to the memory Of the SOL
diers of the civil war, the Commercial
Clug of Magnolia is still after another
public improvements railroad or an
electric line connecting the town and
Its vicinity with at least one Or more
of the trunk lines passing thru Harri-
sonc ounty.
Anho Magnolia has been making
strenuous efforts to induce capitalists
to construct a railroad between Mag
nolia. and Logan, it was but recently
that they received the attention de-
sired This was accomplished by the
report Of civil engineer, reporting
fayorably upon not only the racttcabu-
tty of q route between Magnolia and
Logan, but also on the extension OF the
line thru Logan and Beebeetown to
Council Bluffs. But to more fully
comply with requests, the Commercial
Club will now carry its examination
TO determine the cost of construction,
eauipage, maintenance, public support,
and area Of territory tributary to the
proposed line.

ALLEGED DIAMOND THIEF AR
RESTED At MASON CITY APP
PEARS TO HAVE BEEN MYTH.
PROBABLY PLACED IN JAIL
TO QUESTION sHEARER
Arrest Supposed Now to Have Boon
Blind and That Effort Was Made to
Secure Confession From Man Ac-
cused Of Murder Of Henry Lucas
"Robber" Returned to Minneapolis.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, Sept. 21.-Were the
newspapers Of Mason City and the
newspaper correspondents buncoed
Was Charles Harding, the alleged dia-
mond robber picked up in this city
about a week ago, a myth? 1t seems
so and there seems to have been a mo-
tive in it all that has just come to light
and that was to place Plnkerton de-
tective in the Jail to extract if possible
confession from Jack Shearer, who
is held for the murder of Henry Lucas.
That is today the superstition but 1T
may possibly never come to light
Shearer was arrested thru evidence
worked out by Pinkerton detective
from the Minneapolis department. lr
evidence this mans name was given as
Mr.. Pleasure. More discriminating evil
dence was needed against Shearer and
il is the general oponiin that Charles
Harding, who occupied a cell in the
county Jail for about five days, was
none other than Pinkerton man, that
no diamond robbery occurred in Great
Falls, Mont, or any other place. and
that it was simply a shrewd move to
blind the people and get a confession
from Shearer. Nothing is known re-
earding the results but it is stated that
Shearer's attorney the day the man was
put in told Shearer to be on his guard.
Sheriff Holdren says that he took the
diamond robber to ST. Paul and turned
him over to a northern sheriff whose
identity he would not reveal.

FARM HOME DESTROYED.
Assistance of Neighbors Prevents
Burning Of Various Other
Buildings.

Boone. Sept. 21.--A farm house
owned by P. NJ. Saberg. OF this city,
located on his farm in Marcy town
ship. about five miles south Of Boone,
was burned to the ground yesterday,
with all its contents. The house was
occupied by Charles Ericsson and fam
lily, Mrs. Ericsson with her three small
children being alone at the time the
house caught fire. There was an in
surance of only $1,000 on the house.
The fire broke out about 1880 o'c:ock
in the afternoon. The neighborins
farmers responded at once to the alarm
and it was due to their prompt and in
telligent assistance that any of the
outbuildings were saved Through
their efforts the two barns, a big hay
stack and a tool shed containing many
valuable tools were saved from de-
struction. MIR. Ericsson nearly rode his
horse to death in getting to his burning
home from Moingona. Mr.. Saberg will

he never knew Of COWS committing
suicide in such q manner. He informed
Mr. Ennis that the best he could do
under the circumstances was to flush
them with milk. And then the thought
occurred to him that COWS gave milk
and didn't drink milk, but the immedi-
ate reply came from Mr.. Ennis that his
cows drank milk-they had been ed
ucated that way. He gave them the
milk and forced large quantities OF
lard down their threats. The cows
have been dangerously Ill. but he has
reasonable hopes of saving one Of them
and possibly both. If no can save
them he thinks he has variety Of cows
that no one else possesses.

5CROFULA
HEREDITARY BLOOD POISON

Scrofula is a disease manifested
usually by swelling aud liberation
of the glands, especially about the
neck. It is almost entirely hereditary
in its origin, being the dregs or re-
mains of some specific blood poison:
Where the blood is greatly weakened
with the scrofulous poison, the disease
attacks other portions of the system
besides the glands, and then we see it's
effects in weak eyes, poorly developed
bodies, running sores and ulcers, skin
diseases, especially on the scalp, ca
tarrhal troubles, etc. Scrofula usually
makes its appearance in childhood.
though manhood or womanhood may
be reached before the poison pro-
crosses to the stage of outward mani
festattiior S. s. S. IS the one real cure
for Scrofula. 1t is a blood purifier
without an equal, and it cures this
destructive blood poison by removing
