buque county last Wednesday, Mrs.

her II year old son were drowned in

Ball PLAYER Breaks Leg.

During the third inning of the ball
game between Postville and Lansing
at the Waukon fair Thursday. Catch
err Otto Boucher of the home team
was the victim of a most unfortunate
and regrettable accident. He was
blocking a base runner named Burk-
hart off the home plate when he col
lided with him with sufficient force
to cause a compound fracture of the
left leg a little above the ankle,
which will lay him up for some time.
Leo Boucher and DR.. Flynn drove
over Immediately by auto and found
the fracture had been properly re-
duced and Otto resting as comfort
ably as possible. A good feature OF
the affair is that it was purely an
accident and not due to dirty ball
playing. -POstville Review.

SNAKES INFEST SAC CITY.
Exhibitor Turns Pets Loose Follow
ing Poor Business at the
County Fair.

Sac City people would like to get
revenge on a snake exhibitor who
was at the Sac county fair, held
three weeks ago. A few days after
the fair large snakes were discover
ed on the ground and several were
killed, among them being a rattle
snake several feet long. A snake,
said to be a boaconstrictor, ten or
fifteen feet long, was seen to leap
from a tree few days ago, and this
reptile has not been captured. The
presence Of the snakes IS explained
thus: The owner conducted snake
show at the fair, but he did little
business and quit discouraged. Dis
gusted with the business at the close
of the fair he turned his pets loose
and left town.

IOwans and ChicagOans.

It's really amusing to those who
know different, to read in the Chi
cago papers about 1.-The farmers of
Iowa who came in to see Gotch
'wrassle' and spent most Of their
time looking at the high buildings
and so much of their money that
most of them will have to walk
home" The persons referred to by
the Chicago scribes either went to
Chicago in their own automobiles or
in lower berth Pullmans, says the
Dubuque Times-Journal, and as far
as being attracted by the SCOT COW
cred and homely architecture of Chi
cago, lit is to laugh" Were he not
legitimately prosperous, the average
Iowa farmer could reap golden
harvest selling gold bricks to the
average Chicagoan.

Another New Fake.

This from an exchanged new
fake is being worked on the farmers.
A man will hire out to farmer and
incidentally announce that he has a
considerable sum of money coming
from a farmer in another part OF the
state for whom he has worked. At
ter few days a check will be receiv-
ed which the present employer will
be asked to identify; then the hired
man skips and the farmer is left to
make good forged check he en-
dorsed."

Burtis to Build Homes.

We have it from good authority
that Mr.. Burtis Of the Postville Clay
Products Co. will soon have a propo-
sition to submit to the common peo-
pie whereby they can obtain homes
of their own by rental payments dur
ing a certain specified period. If
this be true, it is the best piece of
news we have heard in a long time,
and may the Lord especially bless the
people of Oshkosh, Wis, for the
kindly interest they are taking in
the American workingmen in Post
vile.

Didn't Like His Name,

o. II. He'll of Brooklyn doesn't like
his name, so he told Judge Grant,
and explained that he would like to
have it changed to Hill. The judge
told He'll to draw up his paper and
come back on Oct. 8, when the
change would be made. 1t is to be
hoped the judge will consent to abol-
ishing the Objectionable place. But
after all what's in name? Hill
may be just as bad, or He'll just as
good under any other cognomen.

splinter" in Hogs Inside.

A piece of pine about one foot long
and one inch square was removed
from the side of hog belonging to
Mr.. FREEZER, near Logan, the other
day. The enlargement has been no.
ticeable on the hog since last spring
and was thought by the owner to be
a tumor. Running the hog through
the dipping tank is thought to ac-
count for the long piece of wood in
the side of the porker.
