Increasing Their Business.

Bowsher & Bowsher, the big i'm
plement and harness firm of this
city with a number of branch stores
at other towns in this. county, have
added a new department to their
business. They have always sold
harness as well as implements, but
this year they have engaged in the
manufacture of all kinds Of harness
on quite an extensive scale. They
have installed powerful electric
harness, sewing machine and have
three expert harness makers at work
turning out the best harness ever
made in Decatur County, and their
harness department is a busy place
for they have a large number of
special orders booked for this
springs delivery. They are prepar-
ed to make any kind of set of har-
ness you want, and you can have it
plain or trimmed to suit your taste.
And not only in this harness de-
partment are they busy, but in all
the other departments are they busy
receiving car load after car load of
new goods for the spring trade.
There are now ten people employed
regularly at the Leon store and their
weekly pay roll is quite an item.
There is nothing in the line of i'm
plements, wagons, buggies or har-
ness which Bowsher & Bowsher can
not sell to their trade at the best
prices to be. found in Decatur coun-
ty. Call in at the big store and see
them. E.. y

New Depot in Use at Last.

After waiting until we almost de-
SPARED of ever getting to use our
fine new depot, on account of the
many yards of official red tape which
had to be used among the railroad
officials, the long looked for order
came last Saturday for Agent Ketch-
am to commence using the new de-
pot on Monday morning, and the
early morning train was the first
regular train to stop there. All
day long there was steady stream
of visitors going to see the new de-
pot, as many of our citizens had
never seen the interior. Agent
Ketcham devoted the entire day to
showing the visitors over the build
ing and it is sure a fine one. The
travelingmen are unanimous of the
opinion that it is little the finest
depot on the Burlington system. A
number Of the ladies went down last
week and hung the pictures which
Agent Ketcham had secured and the
waiting room looks like a parlor.
Leon has good reasons to be proud
of her depot, and we are the envy of
all the towns on the Burlington sys-
tenn.

Horse Sale was q Dandy.

The big horse sale held on last
Wednesday afternoon at the brick
sale pavilion was one Of the best
ever seen in Leon. About fifty head
of horses and mules changed, hands
at good prices, for there were a
number of good buyers here, and
the-bidding was by men who wanted
the stuff. The top. price was $210
for horse sold by the Leon Horse
Co.; Those who attended the sale
were unanimous of the opinion that
it was one of the best sales they
ever saw. Another big sale will be
held in Leon on Thursday, February
End, and the buyers who were here
last Wednesday and q number of
others will be here again. If you
have anything to sell better list it
at once, as everything is sold in the
order it is listed. These horse sales
are conducted on the square and the
farmers are finding out that it is
better for them to put their horses
through the ring and let them bring
the top price than to sell to outside
buyers at smaller price.
Remember the date Of the next
sale and get your stuff ready.

ing the marriage of DR.. S. H. Stover

DR.. Stover is one of Decatur coun-
tvs most prominent young men

anton. He attended the Leon school
and then graduated from the Kirks-
Vile College of Osteopathy and went
to Preston where he located and has

she is an estimable young lady we
are certain, or she could never have
won DR.. Stover. Many friends of

Robbery at Weldon.

Last Wednesday evening January
II, another robbery was pulled on.
in Weldon. The Monroe general
store, DR.. Jamison's Office, Jim Bow
er's blacksmith shop and the Luce
barn being entered. Evidently the
job was done by local talent. 1t
was not until about nine O'Clock
Thursday morning that it was dis
covered. In at Monroe's store Geo.
Lowman stepped to the back window
on the~north side to read something
and. remarked to Olan Monroe that
there was glass broken, but moth
ing especially was thought of it at
the time. In a short time Burrell
Monroe who has charge of the hard.
ware department came in and went
into the hardware room and noticed
that some of the stock knives were
missing and also some razors and
little change he had left in the
drawer and on further investigation
they found that the clothing stock
had been disturbed and some other
things taken but it is impossible to
tell how much goods were taken.
From the tracks on the ground at
the window, previously mentioned,
it was a foregone conclusion that
this is the place that they entered,
the tracks indicating that there were
two parties, one evidently having
on one shoe larger than the other.
1t was also found that they had
entered DR.. Jamison's office and took
three pint bottles of whiskey, one OF
the bottles, emptied being found on
the street in the morning. At Jim
Bowers blacksmith shop they took
several "neverslip" horse shoes, and
at the Luce barn east of the picture
gallery they took fine eight dollar
lap robe belonging to Mr.. Arnold
who clerks at the Lockwood & War
rem store. This petty thleving Ia
very annoying to the merchants and
it is the opinion of nearly everyone
that it is parties living in this neigh
borhood. They are knocking on the
penitentiary doors.-Weldon Amer

The Revival Continues.

The revival meetings continue at
the Christian Church with unabated
interest. The bad weather we have

Heart searching sermons of the great
evangelist. People are still coming
to the Lord in nearly every service.
Already sixty-five souls have come

and make it the greatest day of all.
1t will be known as New Converts
Day" and we want every one who

to be there. A little souvenir will be
given by evangelist Harris to each
for Christ during these meetings,
whether they came by letter, state
ment, or confession and baptism. At
the close of the free lecture Sunday
afternoon, we want to get picture
Ol I'LL tne converts anu OLQeTS VINO

Kryl Coming.

Why do successful musicians all
wear long hair?
This question has been asked
time and again, and it is going the
rounds anew now, anent the appear
ance here at Leon Opera House on
Thursday Feb. 9, 1911. of Bohmuir
Kryl and his own concert company,
for Kryl has shock of blonde hair
beside which even the reddish name
of Paderewskl pales. Kryl was ask
ed this question many times, but he
never ventured reply, any more
than did the great Pole. But it is a
fact that musicians of the first rank
are almost without exception long
haired. True Sousa is not, but Sousa
is bald, and he has beard. But
besides those named, Kubelik, Ha-
rold Bauer, Kochian, and any num-
ber of present day leaders, and such
noted geniuses of the past as Beeth-
oven, Liszt, Wagner, and any num-
ber more, have been distinguished
by the length Of their locks. There
is seemingly something in long flow
ing hair that make for music. 1t
certainly adds to artistic touch; !;
one could no more imagine Kryl
with short hair than one could
think of Paderewski without his halo
Of red. But. hair or no hair, Kryl
can certainly play more notes on the
cornet than any cornetist, ever did
here before-so said the New York
Herald. .g =.
MI. Kryl at the concert will be
assisted by Miss Helen Norris, So
prano, who has filled successful en-
gagements with grand operas in
Paris, Milan, London and New York;
Miss Marie Edwards, who has made
such great hit en- tour as soloist
with Walter Damrosch and his New
York Orchestra-she studied the
piano under Leschetizky in Vienna,
Austria; Mr.. Saraslay Chimera, who
is also Mr.. Kryl's soloist when on
tour with his band.
Josephine Kryl, violinist, will also
appear with the company. She is
a great hit wherever she plays she
is the daughter of Bohmuir Kryl.
Her last study was done under ia
roslay Kochian, the world famed
virtuoso. Leon Opera House, Thurs
day FEBRUARY 9, 1911.

Bought . Big Wagon.

William Goodman, of northwest
of town was in Leon Saturday and
purchased a heavy mountain wagon,
81 inch Charter Oak with inch
tires and four horse abreast double
trees. Something which the editor
has not seen in this country hereto
fore. He also bought a fine new
set of home made harness which the
firm of Bowsher & Bowsher manu-
factured to his order. Mr.. Good
man drove his four fancy horses
abreast through town and turned
them around by the north lumber
yard by simply speaking to them,
and without touching the lines.
Taking into consideration that these
four horses had never been hitched
this way before shows without 81
doubt that Mr.. Goodman is the top
notch horse trainer of Decatur
county -. g.

Flynn-Zimmerman.

Mr.. John Flynn, of southeast of
Leon and Miss Elida Zimmerman, of
near Lineville, were married at Char
iton Tuesday of last week at the
Catholic priory by Rev. Father Me-
Gillin. The bride was charmingly
attired in a gown of brown satin, and
the most conspicuous part of the
groom's attire was his beaming
smile. They were accompanied to
Charlton by the groom's sister, Miss
Alice Flynn. These estimable young.
people are we'll and favorably known
by. large circle of acquaintances.
They returned to Leon Wednesday
evening by way of Des Moines, and
will shortly go to housekeeping on
the groom's fine farm. Their many
friends extend hearty congratula-
tions and wish them every happiness.

THE SENATORIAL DEADLOCK.
Byers has Withdrawn from the Race
and FRANKIE is Deserted.

There is practically no change in
the senatorial deadlock at Des
Moines, except that Byers has with
drawn from the race and FRANKIE has
lost his two votes. 1t is reported
that Garst will lose his support next
and Funk will be aided. The Byers
support was thrown to Kenyon, and
in the vote Tuesday Kenyon was only
one vote behind Young. 1t seems to
be Young against the field, with the
odds in favor of the field. The fol-
lowing is the vote on Tuesday:
