Joseph Haynes, farmer living Just
beyond the Tama county line. and a
patron of the Carlton line. was in the
city today and said that the Carlton
patrons had refused to accept the con-
tract offered by the Marshall Telephone
Company on the ground that it was a
one sided contract, and offered them
no relief Of what they had complained
of-poor service. Mr.. Haynes said that
their contract expired on April Is ana
a renewal was submitted by the Mar
shall company, calling for rental Of
SO cents per month for each phone.
and keeping the telephone line in good
shape at all times. If crosses existed.
and were not remedied promptly, Mr..
Haynes said that the contract called
for the service being cut off. Mr..
Haynes said that the farmers wanted
the company to guarantee good ser
vice, but the company would guaran-
tee nothing. At meeting of the
Carlton company it was voted to refuse
the contract. The Carlton line Is
member Of the Marshall County Nut
ual Telephone Company which was or
gained a year or more ago.
President "A. A. Moore. OF the Mar
shall Telephone Company, was asked
about the cutting OFF of the Carlton
line and said that the line had been cut
off. but not until the company had been
notified by the patrons that they no
longer wished the service by refusing
to sign the contract.
Mr.. Moore said that the contract was
an exact duplicate Of those In force
with all other members OF the Mar

Moore, expired in January. and the

A fortunate accident. that was triv-
ial In itself ana did not damage but
might have resulted IN derailing and
wrecking the Northwestern westbound
fast mail, No. IL. happened in the
yards this morning when brake beam
under one Of the mail cars was broken
and fell. The beam dropped to the
track under the car about 100 yards
east of the Third avenue crossing just
after the train had slackened speed to
stop at the station. Iowa Central
switchmen saw the beam fall and sig
nailed the trainmen who stopped the
train, which was brought to stand
still before 1t reached the union sta
ton platform. With it's long iron rod
attached it was being dragged over the
ties and rails under the car. Had the
beam dropped while the train was
running at high speed in the open
country 1t would probably have been
torn loose and might have derailed one
ore more Of the cars.

Persons who cannot write their
names are s4uired to use as a substi-
tute the sign of the cross (X). An
ciently kings and mobiles used the
same sign, but not ignorantly. 1t was
used by those who could not write as

himself by his Christian faith to the
truth of the matter to which he affixed
the cross. Hence, although people
now write or subscribe their names

Jananese Dentistry,

There are mighty few fancy touches
to the manner in which the Japanese
native dentists conduct their business.
The victim is seated on the ground,
the dentist bends over him and forces
his left hand between the patients
jaws in such a manner that the mouth
cannot possibly be closed. Then the
dentist grabs the doomed tooth be-
tween the thumb and forefinger of the
right hand and with one deft wrencl

A StiIted Livinu.

Thousands of men in England earn
their living during a considerable por-

walk and work on tall stills. Most of
them are employed in the hop fields,
where they have displaced the high
stepladders formerly in use. During
the pole stringing season the stilt
workers, 70 feet from the ground, per
form the work with ease and without
loss of time or motion. A trained stilt-
man will do the work OF four men work

last cure for thinness is to omit every
