Beverly, Mass, Sept. 7.--As Presi-

the circuit he admittedly opens the
presidential campaign for 1912. In
view Of his recent speech at Hamil-

he will as he meets his various OPP
ponents In each state, take up the

territory, attacking them In their own
localities and defending his policies.
Inasmuch as the trip is to include
over one-half Of the states in the union
and as 1t is mapped out to take in
much Of insurgent territory as we'll
as democratic territory, the president
will have his hands full and straight

TROUBLE AT MASON CITY.
Greeks and Americans Come Togeth-
er i'm Resort" and Shooting
Results.

Mason City, Ia, June 12.-Greeks
and Americans had a clash again
last night which came very nearly
resulting disastrously for two of the
Americans. And this time the sem
timent favors the Greeks. A fellow
giving his name as George Hart and
his 'paP Harry BAN, as the story
goes, were tanking up. They are
plumbers and are husky lads. They
went over into the Greek settlement
and when they thought they had
spotted a place where beer might be
had they went in and demanded it..
They were refused when the two
Americans went to starting a rough
house. In a very short time Hart
was shot through the back and BAN
through the thigh. The police were
called and the two wounded men
were taken to the City Park hospital.
No effort was made to remove the
bullets. Hart is the more seriously
injured. The ball got him just above
the hip and near the spine and went
into the body. AS it is a thickly pop
ulated community it will be a hard
matter to ascertain who did the
shooting. No arrests have been
made.

Joke ON Supervisors.

Who lie joke was on is not yet
fathomed. Two big beer bottles that
had been drained of their contents
were found posing on the table in
the supervisors room in the court
house this morning when Supervisor
Scmers ushered Supervisor Johnson
of Black Hawk into the room. The
optics of the two supervisors looked
like base balls but Supervisor John
son, who had just returned from
Clear Lake, where he was on fish
ing trip, however, recovered his
breath quicker than Mr.. Somers. The
court house officials were called on
the carpet and it was discovered that
some of the ladies of the offices had
enjoyed a picnic supper early last
evening in the Recorders Office, but
they stoutly denied having anything
to drink" or of even bringing cof-
fee in such looking receptacles. OF
course what mostly disheartened SUI
pervisor Johnson from the wet dis
trict of Waterloo was the lonely EN-
ptiness of the fiagons. Mason City

Peril in Fast Driving.

West Union Argo: Cliff Usher
while driving the j. NJ. Usher Ford
car Thursday evening, had the novel
experience of having the car turn
completely over with him, yet of re-
ceiving only few scratches himself
He was on the west Fayette road go
ing south through the cut below the
w. c. McCleery place, and having
been on the side of the road was
turning back in when the accident
happened 1t is very unusual thing
for an auto to turn over in the mid
die OF smooth road. and the pre-
sumption is that the speed must
have been high. The top, windshield,
radiator, and almost every part of
the car above the frame got broken
up in the smash
