Requires A Day Current.

This is an age of electricity sure
enough. A lady who called at a
neighbor's house the other morning
was greeted by the head of the family.
To the inquiry as to whether his wife
was-at home the response was in the
affirmative. ''She is using the electric
sweeper in the parlor, daughter is
using the electric ironer in the sitting
room and the youngest girl is busy in
the kitchen with the electric toaster.
All we need is an electric cooker to get
us a square meal" And the latter is
in market.
1t might be remarked that the above
did not take place in Audubon but with
a day current it would be likely. Our
people are not unlike other folks.

InfantiIe Paralysis Spreading.

Reports of new cases of infantile
paralysis are being sent to the State
Board of Health at Des Moines from all
parts of the state. Last week we re-
ported number of cases, and two
deaths in Calhoun county. Two new
cases are reported from this county
So alarmed has the epidemic become in
Mahaska county that the local board of
health has closed the public schools at
New Sharon. All new cases that APP
pear are being put under strict quarin-
tine, and everything is being done to
prevent the spread of the disease. In
Calhoun county is the first instance
where the disease has attacked pigs.
One doctor wrote that he had seen as
many as three pigs out of pen of five
paralyzed in their hind legs. Hereto
fore only chickens seemed to be affected
with the disease.

An Ambitious Editor.

In recent address at Oskaloosa LATE
Young declared that he has two crown
ing ambitions, though later on he con-
fessed to others. He said however, that
it was necessary to mention only one,
and that was that he might live long
enough to see the style of ladies' hats
change. He had started out in the
world as a printers devil and decided
to acquire two things. One of them
was printing Office and the other two
pairs of suspenders, SO that he would
not have to switch every time he want
ed to don his Sunday trousers. -Keokuk

NOT APPEAR ON PROGRAMME.

Ed TO DooRs-oTHER ARTISTS
GAVE SPLENDID NUMBERS.

Much disappointment was expressed
last night by the crowd that packed
the Grand theatre to the doors, at the
fact that volney Mills, the Grand Forks
vocalist, was unable. to be present and
appear on the programme of the eve
ming. Mr.. Mills nd been scheduled to
deliver a number of selections
However, the other artists who ap-
Feared on the programme gave a.
number Of most excellent renditions
and more than made up for the fact
that there was a change in the per-
sonnet. Miss Eunice Jacobson appear
ed as an extra number, and Mrs. E. r.
Wright substituted some for Mr.. Mills.
Miss jacobson gave a splendid read
ing Of Lovey Mary. She portrayed
this unique, yet distinguished book
character in a style that was decidedly
pleasing and won for her an enthus-
iastic applause.
Miss Bertha Hagen, who is perhaps
the most talented pianist in the city
for her age, pleased the large crowd
by several excellent renditions. Her
work showd much talent and the very
fact that she appeared on last eve
rIing's programme with such a COM
pany of artists, is an excellent compli-
ment to her ability.
Mrs. Wright responded in her usual
manner with tones that charmed and
touched the heart.

GARDNER
HOTEL ON FIRE
ABOUT THE BIG
HosTELRY INDICATED THAT
THE BUILDING WAS A5LAzE
LAST NIeHT-GUEsTs AND MAN
AGER GREATLY WORRIED.

About 8 o'clock last evening, guests
at the Gardner hotel began to get the
odor Of burning wood. Upon examina
ton 1t was discovered that all the
floors above the first, were filed with
the smell of burning timber and the
guests began moving rapidly about in
search of the supposed fire.
Manager Leimbacher, who was in the
lobby. was notified of the condition
and he began a hurried examination
but failed to find the source of the fire.
Guests started to pack their clothing in
readiness for hurried exit from the
building.
Everyone in the lobby was uncon-
cerned, as the odor on the first floor
was not OF all perceptible., However,
in the Railways on the floors above,
guests and employees were searching for
the origin Of the fire, as the smell was
decidedly plain and distinct.
After almost an hours hunt. the
search was given up, but the employees
were told to keep a sharp lookout for
any slight indication Of blaze break
ing out.
About this time the guests in the
lobby leaned over the big fire in the
CRATE and his nostrils caught the odor.
which was so strong on the second,
third fourth and fifth floors. It seems
that the wood which was being burned,
was of peculiar makeup and gave rise
to an unusual smell, which instead Of
going up the chimney, for the greater
part, fioated out and up staircases and
the elevator shaft causing all the
worry and disturbance on the floors
above.

the banquet would be given if there
were sixty plates sold among the
members of the organization. How
ever, a great many more than this
have signihed their intention OF
attending and the date will be set as
soon as the spokesman can be Sc

hold Of either John Lind, the famous
ex- governor of Minnesota, or Judge
