DECoRAHIANs AT MASON CITY.
Messrs. j. ID. Mullaney and Il. III.
Flemming Booming Central
Heights Addition.

Messrs. Mullaney and Flemming
who have charge of the selling de-
partment of the Central Investment
company, have closed a deal where
by they are now the owners of two
eighty acre tracts, one to the north
OF the Mason City and Clear Lake
track and the other just opposite to
the south of the road. The purchase
of the eighty to the south of the
road was just closed this week, and
the Central Investment company is
working to get it all ready for the
market
The whole section has been plat
ted into lots, with the exception of
thirty acres south of the tracks
which is being reserved by the COM
pany for free factory sites. The
company is planning on starting a
campaign for advertising and inter-
esting small factories to locate on
their free grounds. The west and
south thirty acres of the tract south
of the interurban road is set aside
for this purpose.
The Central Investment company
has done a great deal of work on the
eighty acres to the north of the in
terurban. The streets have all been
laid out and along each side of the
street a long row of fine elm trees
has been planted, about four of these
trees to lot. In all there has been
placed on the tract over three thou
sand fine elm trees.
The Clear Lake and Mason City
Railway company will erect about
the center of the tract waiting
room and depot, plans of which have
been made at this time. The COM
pany will also furnish free side
tracks TO factories. Work on the
construction of five homes on the
tract will be begun in a short time.
The committee from the Sisters of
Charity have been offered a site for
a hospital on this tract, and the COM
mittee have made one or two trips to
the Heights and think very favorably
of the location for their hospital
which they have been contemplating
here for some time.
The tract now owned and plated
by the Central Heights Investment
company is one of the most beauti-
full ones about the city. Off to the
southwest of all the smoke and dirt
of the city, it is located on one of
the highest pieces of ground adjoin-
ing the town. 1t is but eighty rods
from the nearest factory in the city.
On the interurban which furnishes
car service every hour, this place
should become the home of many of
our people within a short time after
the tract is placed on the market
The offer of free factory sites ought
to induce a number of western fac
tories to locate there.-Times-Her-

For one thing he has permitted

"Peonage? What's that?"
"A kind of slavery"
Mercy sakes! Are there many
colored people in Mexico?"
"A great many of the Mexicans
are Indians, or half Indian and half
Spanish. Diaz himself is part In

NO, there are probably more In

DEBORAH TEAMS WIN.
Luther College Defeats st. Olaf, and
High School Wins From West
Union High School.

DEBORAH fans have seen two Nigh
ty good base ball games the past
week, and DEBORAH teams were for
tunate enough to win both of them.
The game Thursday afternoon at
the fair grounds, between the De-
corah and West Union high school
teams, was without doubt the best
game these teams have played this
season. West Union came up in
automobiles, under the care of Fred
Schneider, an ex-Decorahian, and in
the afternoon put up mighty fine
game of ball. The boys on both
sides played an air-tight game until
the last inning. George Baker pitch
ed for DEBORAH and Wood for West
Union. At the beginning of the
ninth inning the score was 2 to 0
in favor of the visitors, and it look
ed like DEBORAH was in for a beating,
but the home team Fingered up, the
West Union pitcher lost his head
walked three men, and before they
knew it, our boys had run in three
scores and won the game.
The Luther College team had
been grooming themselves for the
st. Olaf College game Friday after
noon for some time previous, and
they were determined to win the
game, if such thing were possible
The team was in better shape than
at any time during the year. St
Olaf, under the coaching of Ben
Keefe, also had fine, well balanc-
ed team, and the big crowd at the
game saw by long odds the. best
game of the season, and one of the
best played here in years. For eleven
innings it was battle royal, game
that would do credit to major
leaguers. Estenson in the box fol
Luther and Christopherson for ST
Olaf, both piched fine, steady games
and they were well supported by the
men behind them It was nip and
tuck from start to finish, and any
body's game at any stage. Several
times each team pulled out of mighty
| tight places. In the fourth inning
st. Olaf made its only score by fast
work. In the tenth an error gave
them men on second and third, and
it looked like they would score, but
a foul fly out spoiled their last
chance. Luther had three men on
bases in the third, but could not get
a man over the plate until the sew
enth, when a bad throw let Guttebo
in. Then it was a tie until the
eleventh inning, when Storaasli
started out with a single, sneaked
second and on an overthrow went TO
third, and home on a single, and the
game was over, Luther had won
from their old-time rivals by the
score of to /. 1t was fine game,
that put fire into all who saw it.
1t was the last game of the season
for Luther.

Saloon Cases at WaverIy.

During the last few days the court
has been busy with the saloon cases.
The case from Frederika against
c. Mas was the first to be tried.
The next to be tried was the one
against Luesenhop & Bredow.
The court granted permanent in
functions as prayed in each of the
above cases. The evidence was not
strong in either case. Permanent
injunctions were also granted against
j. NJ. Daley and Louis Christensen.
The cases against Richard Stephen
son and F. H. Smaller & Co. were
continued to the October term.
The court suggested to the attor-
neys in these cases that he could not
try them Immediately on account Of
work elsewhere, and thought he
could see no harm in continuing
them to the October term. The at
torneys acted upon the suggestion Of
the court.
Mr.. Acres, the attorney for the
plaintiffs in these cases, said in the
course of his remarks to the court,
that oft times town and city coun-
ellis place the tax so high that 1t is
practically impossible for saloon men
to run without being forced to sell
to minors, drunkards and others pro-
hibited by law, in order that they
may pay the tax and make living
for themselves and families"
This is undoubtedly true in many
instances, and town and city councils
should consider questions Of this
kind carefully and determine them
wisely and judiciously. In fixing
licenses and in selecting parties to
be granted permits, only the best
men applying for permits should be
considered, and the city should use
it's power to see that the laws are
lived UP to as nearly as possible. Mr..
Acres tries his cases quietly and
seems to understand the law
Thoroughly, which is applicable to sa-
loon cases.-Independe

STATE FARM FOR ABERDEEN
G. r. Boutwell, the Donor
Commercial Club Succeeds in its Eff.
forts to Secure Experiment Farm
and Station for Home Town

Aberdeen will have a state expert
ment farm and station.
That's another thing that's settled.
And G. R. Boutwell,, president of
the Aberdeen Townsite and Invest
ment company is the man to whom
the thanks of the whole community
are due, for making the thing pos
sible.
The plan to secure an experiment
station for Aberdeen originated with
in the Commercial club and its Of
ficers and members have labored in
defatigueably for weeks to bring it
to pass.
When Superintendent Farrell, of
Boise, was in Aberdeen in charge Of
the Farmers institute that was held
here early in March, he was inter-
ested in the plan and promised. to do
all that he could to locate an expert
ment farm and station here. He said
the authorities of the state agricul-
tural college were anxious to place
such a station in thi spart of the
state, but that it was doubtful if a
sufficient appropriation could be Sc
cured to purchase lands and erect
the necessary buildings. The Gooding
station, he said was established upon
a farm owned by former Governor
Gooding. who donated the land and
paid maintenance expenses.
With this hint in mind the men,
bers got busy at once and laid
busy at once and laid the project il
all it's details befor President Both.
we'll He had already been thinking
about the plan and agreed at once to
do as much for Aberdeen as Mr..
Gooding had done for the. town that
bears his name He declared that
the station might be located on any
40 acres he owns near the townsite,
that he would pay maintenance ex-
penses, and stand half the expense
of erecting necessary buildings, pro-
viding only that they should be such
buildings as would afterwards be USE
full on the farm. He will give the
use of the land and the building rent
free, for term of years and do
everything else within his power to
make the farm great success.
One of the reasons the agricultural
college authorities desire an expert
ment station here is that all of the
five stations already established are
