What Did the Agent Do?

Up in Minnesota Mr.. Olson had
a COW killed by a railroad train. In
due season the claim agent for the
railroad called.
We understand, of course that
the deceased was very docile and
valuable animal" said the claim
agent in his most persuasive claim
ageutlemanly manner, and we
sympathize with you and your
family in the loss. But, Mr.. Olson
you must remember this. Your COW
has no business being on our track
Those tracks are our private prop
er-y and when she invaded them
she became a tresspasser. Technic-
ally speaking, you as her owner,
became a trespasser also. But We
have no desire to carry the issue
into court and possibly give you
trouble. Now, then what would
you regard as a fair settlement be-
tween you and the railroad COM
pany?'
Veil" said Mr.. Olson slowly,
"Ay bane poor Swede farmer but
Ay shall give you two dollars. -

Clear Lake, Oct. 1s.-Prof. P. G.
Holden, OF the extension department OF
the state agricultural college at Ames
stands very high in the estimation OF
farmers of this state. When he de
clared in his speech here that retired
| farmers did not make good citizens in
a progressive city, were against build
| ing up the town and public improve
| ments in general. it was thought that it
would go unchallenged. But here comes
one of the old residents OF this county
and contributes the following in reply.
He is so modest that he will not permit
the use Of his name. This is what he
says:
When l read IN the papers and hear
speakers tell that retired farmers are
no good. set pretty mad. Maybe we're
not any good in town, may be2were n Of
any good on the farm. maybe the young
people don't want us around in the
way What are YOU going to do with
us" l suppose you think we ought to
be 'OseriZed.' Maybe we wouldn't be
any good In heaven and possibly we'd
be too green to be of any good in the
other place.

try, lived on corn pone and pork,

5000 FOR MURDER OF HUSBAND.
Mrs. Driver Awarded Damages Against
Man Who Killed Him.

Man Who Killed Him.
Iowa City, Oct. 1S.-Mrs. Oliver
Driver was awarded $1,000 by Musca-
tine county jury, at the close Of the
damage suit brought by Mrs. Driver
against Guy Baker for the killing Of
her husband. Mrs. Driver sued for
$4,000
Guy Baker was put on the stand in
his own behalf. and testimony was
also introduced for the defense
thru Frank Brown, r. A. Ashton and J.
w. Rife. The defense showed that
Driver had not accumulated property,
and argued that he would not have ac-
cumulated anything in the future. This
was to offset the testimony for the
plaintiff as to the value of the deceased
to his family from financial stand
point. The defense endeavored to show
as in the murder trial, that Baker killed
Driver in self defense.
The case was originally brought in
the Johnson county district court, but
a change of venue was taken by the
defend ant to Muscatine county.
