Finger by about six votes and DR.. Faux
by three. c.. W, Sears and T. G. Inghram
were tied yesterday at the close OF the

Of many probable illegalities in the 800

number OF certificates lack the official
signatures of the judges and clerks OF

SOMETHING IS DOING
The Commercial Club Are After
Better Railway Service.

The regular meeting of the Oska-
loosa Commercial Club Tuesday even
ing was well attended and business
started that may result in benefits
for the city later on. The matter that
the meeting most desired to take up
was the Ottumwa-O skaloosa interur-
ban. A committee of Ottumwa bust
ness men was to have been present
but was unayoidably detained by af-
fairs at home. This matter will be
up for consideration later.
The Mahaska County Fair received
some attention-of this, more later.
A subject that has been of much
concern to OskaIoosa business men
for months was called up by the
meeting and discussed at length No
definite action was taken for the time
being, but inquiry and correspond
ence will be started tending toward
an investigation to give foundation
for decisive action on the part of the
Club. The subject was the made
quate railway service to and from
the city furnished by the railways.
Oskaloosa has had no sleeping car
accommodations for months, the ser
vice formerly enjoyed having been
taken off by all lines. The absence
of accommodations west and south of
the city on the Burlington line Is
temporarily provided for by the new
motor car which is proving a popu.
lar and paying service. This car

L~OOP-THE-LOOP MAN FALLS

Trap-door in Wheel Fails to
Omen and BicYclist Is Injured.

CHICAGO, June s.-Nicholas Che
malo. who loops the loop on a bicycle
at an amusement park, gave the crowd
an extra thrill last night when he fell
thirty feet from the top Of the big steel
circle, and in consequence is now in
the hospital with three broken fingers,
a split knee and a deep cash in his
chin.
The mechanism Of the loop is so ar
ranged that when he whirls around the
loop a door In the track at the bottom
is automatically opened. through which
he rides out of the circle. This time
the device failed to work. and conse-
quently Chemalo started around the
loop a second time. but without mo-
mentum enough to carry him all the
way. When he was almost head down
he fell to the bottom of the loop and
the wheel fell on him.
While seriously injured 1t is said that
he will probably recover.

QUARRY BLASTING
Home Damaged and Life Men
aced, Former Chancellor's
Widow TeStifies.

Mrs. Clementine B.. Runyon, widow
of Chancellor Theodore Runyon. at one
time United States Ambassador to
Germany, was the chief witness today
before ice-Chancellor Emery in the
proceedings brought by her and a score
Of her neighbors in M%illington against
the Morris County Crushed Stone Com
pany and Achille Du Four, a contractor.
Mrs. Runyon and her neighbors are
trying to restrain the company from
keeping on with its blasting work on
the ground that 1t is too noisy and
dangerous and for that reason has in
jured property values.
Mrs. Runyon was armed with a man.
damus covering the explosions or blasts
for some time past. which, she said.
helped to destroy her peace of mind
and property.
In November, 1909, there were many
blasts, so she testified. referring to the
tabs" she kept on the company. On
the 22d of hat month there were five
blasts at noon and at s o'clock six
severe blasts, while on the next day,
she added, blasts shook the house she
owned and a small piece of the ceiling
In q ballroom came down. On Novem-
Der 81 there were thirty-three blasts at
noon and twenty during the afternoon.
I'm keeping a RECORD of the blasting
did you recall every blast on the
PREMISES" asked former Mayor Charl-
ton A. Reed, of Morristown. of counsel
for the company, on the cross-exami-
nation.
Very nearly all of them" was the
admission. Some I did not because
they were slight and they did not
amount to anything"
"Oh, yes" she volunteered, "one of
these blasts was very severe. like the
noise of a n or a thunderbolt. We
compared the noises at times to q pack
of firecrackers in a box, as we often
could not even keep account of the
explosions"
Smoke from the explosions" she
added, sometimes came into our yard.
l could smell it,"
Mrs. Runyon also testified that
Frederick Schmidt, the chief owner CT
the quarry, had made frequent at
empts to buy part Of her property, but
she refused to sell.
stones came down into my yard at
times like hickory nuts" was part Of
the concluding testimony given by Mrs.
Runyon.
Did you ever pick any up?" she was
asked on the cross-examination.
mo, SIR was the answer. But l
knew they ca lie from the quarry"
How many did you eee?"
''Oh." came from Mrs. Runyon with
a sigh, about 1000"
Elias Wilkinson, her son-in-law, then
told about the number of times he had
been in the Runyon house and heard
and felt the explosions at the quarry,
while other witnesses were on hand to
press the same points.
The defense is that the blasting was
carried on in a buslness-like manner
and with due regard to the surrounding
property and its owners.
