DARLING WILL DRAW
FOR NEW YORK GLOBE
Artist Has Been Assured by PhysI-
clans Arm Injury viii be
overcome.

]. N. Darling ("Ding"), the cartoon
list, has made arrangements to re-
move to New York City, and with the
promised recovery of his arm, expects
to draw for the Globe.
Physicians in Chicago, who have
made repeated X-ray examinations Of
his arm, have informed him that its
disability is due to particle of bone,
splintered when he broke the elbow
several years ago, which has lodged
in the joint and over whose ragged
edge the nerve has become frayed.
by keeping the arm straight instead
Iof bending the elbow, in drawing,
they hope he will be able to prevent
further laceration Of the nerve, but in
case the injury becomes augmented it
may be necessary to undergo an oper-
alton. The first theory of paralysis
has been abandoned by the physi-
clans, Mr. Darling said recently on
his return from Chicago, to the infinite
relief of his friends and himself.
Mr.. Darling will return from New
York Immediately and Ii is understood
|
will arrange to remove there at once.
In telegram conveying the informa-
ton as to his decision to go east he
expressed his regret at leaving Iowa,
which always has been his home, and
it Is probable that he will commune
cate with Iowans from time to time
through features in the Register and
! Leader.
Mr.. Darling began newspaper work
on the Sioux City Journal, where he
was reporte- and afterwards made
cartoons and came to Des Moines
about five years ago. He and his wife
have a large circle of friends in
social, musical and artistic Des
Moines, who will deeply regret their
removal to New York.

Sensible Method OF
Removing Wrinkles
(From Woman's Realm. J

If crows feet appear prematurely
about the eyes, apply lotion made
by dissolving an ounce of saxolite In
half pint of witch hazel. This is the
best, understanding treatment known,
as 1t tends to restore normal condi-
tons 1t tightens and strengthens the
skin, likewise the underlying tissue,
the loosening and softening of which
not only adds in the same direction but,
by increasing the circulation, helps to
bring healthy color to the face.
The same solution, acting as it does
naturally affects not only every wrin-
kle and line, but hanging or flabby
cheeks and chin as well. Tell the
druggist you want powdered saxolite,
in which form it is most effective.
When your face wears a tired express
sion, battle it with this refreshing, re,
vivifying liquid.

OF freight rates to Mississippi river
points in Iowa, according to an opin-
ion expressed by John Dewitt, Keo-

today from Washington, D. c., where
he has been for the past few days
studying the freight rate question.
Keokuk is not to make a single
handed fight in the rate controversy.
The City of Power" will look on with
interest to the freight rate fight and
will hold in readiness to do anything
in the way of bringing forward evil
dence to help the cause along.
Upon his return to Keokuk today
Agent Dewitt had little to give out
regarding the subject which Is Of vital
Importance of Keokuk at the present
time. He has been in Washington
comforting with the interstate COM
merce commission and familiarizing
himself with the steps being taken by
the state in the freight matter.
He says that the legislature appro-
priated $4,000 for commission to
bring about an adjustment of freight
rates to the Father of Waters" 1t is
hoped to secure a reduction OF the
rates to points in Iowa and place
them on an equal basis with st. Louis
and Quincy.

Bride and Groom Wero Too SWIFT for
Pursuers.
Cupid defended nobly, and favored
In every way with his willy crafts,
fleeing bride and groom until the very
chase OF two touring cars after a third
automobile, carrying with all the
swiftness throbbing motor could
turn, the lucky welded couple, headed
for Sandusky short time after one
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Mr..
ana Mrs. Ralph e. Cushman. seeking
to elude their friends at the Same time
gave the chubby lad with his bow
and culver. the ride of his life.
No one knew 1t was stall" when
the groom ordered cab from liv-
cry stable and not one of the wedding
party got Jerry to the noise" until
gray touring car drove up to the front
door of the Chute residence, at Tenth
and Exchange in the very eyes OF the
merry-making guests, the bride and
groom clambered aboard and were
away The pair hadn't gone a block
though till they were started after in
hot pursuit by the members OF the G.
N. A. T. club and q number OF their
friends, in two other autos.
The brother of the groom, it Is said,
was wise to the secret tactics the
bride and groom were going to employ
in getting away. and ordered the
cars from a garage.
The chase waxed hot but with a
good hundred yards lead, Mr.. and Mrs
Cushman were whirled to Sandusky
while one Of the automobiles broke
down Several in the crippled car
climbed into the auto that still re-
NAMED in condition and the pursuit
was resumed.
Bride and groom reached Sandusky
only to find that the north bound
train was late on account of wreck
at Quincy. Just as they were about
to leave for Fort Madison to catch the
Santa Fe train for Chicago, several
of their friends ran up the road
to give them a parting shot. The
second automobile had its troubles
and the CHATS and company had to
"hoof 1t" to the wayside station.
One good Joke Of the whole affair,
was that several of the pursuers of
cupid and the newly weds took the
train to Burlington, expecting to
find them there but the groom knew
what he was about and the Santa Fe,
not the Burlington, is two fares to the
merry today.

1DS AND ENDS.

SHEEP-Moderate supplies Of sheep
and lambs met with fairly active de-
mand from all quarters and trading
started out in healthy form. Good fat
stock ruled about a dime higher in most
instances, while feeder classes moved at
figures steady to possibly a little stronger.
Receipts amounted 20 less than 1900
head, making a four DAYS total of $4,000
head. The new offerings included few
fat sheep, the same as recently, and un-
finished strings from Wyoming were the
general rule.
Improvement in fat lambs was largely
reflected by sales OF good westerns,
warmed-up stuff being neglected because
OF Its doubtful dressing reputation. One
band of fed native lambs reached S5.75.
but they were not the kind that passed
over corn field In an aeroplane." West
ems are also quotable up to $5.75 some
i5-pounders from Idaho bringing II yes

Fat sheep with quality acted equally
as well as killing lambs but volume of
business was necessarily small. Choice
~ pound wethers that were cashed at
much of q workout and good ewes
ranged around $30013.30 Fat yearlings
were the rarest article on the list but
prices scored no advance that can be
quoted definitely.
Almost everything in the way of feed
ers changed hands yesterday, leaving the
trade in good shape to handle the fresh
supply. Country demand seemed re-
SPShSlNS hiu DiObu at Jne opening ana
outlook for complete clearance was
promising. Weighty lambs suitable for
dry-lot feeding drew the best inquiry
and were purchased at $50 and better.
Plain little lambs got fair action under
AO0, but prejudice against this class of
stock Is becoming more pronounced and
the 35Gp45-pound classes are not very ready
sellers. Feeder ewes still moved at bar
gain rates, from S2609265 down to sl.25
for the poorest culls. Three days pur-
chase OF feeders on country account
amounts to 10000 head.
