HOW scHALLER FOUGHT.

r. e. Sears Has Interesting Note
Written BY Sac City Man.
r. Z. Sears has among his keepsakes
an old and faded bit Of paper which
bear the words, You can get Dobson
and Culbertson Of Carroll, il you speak
to them"
Without an explanation the words
mean but little. but back Of them Is an
interesting tale of the fight to secure
for Marshalltown the location OF the
Iowa Soldiers Home.
Mr.. Sears was one of the many Mar
shalltown men who worked unceasing-
ly for the soldiers home for this city.
In the joint session Of the legislature
during the latter sos the site was
made the basis Of a bitter fight. Phil
Schaller, Of Sac City. representing his
county in the legislature. was working
as hard for Sac City as Mr.. Sears and
his friends were for Marshalltown.
Schaller had exhausted his ammuni-
ton, and knew that Sac City could not
win. His note to Mr.. Sears, telling
him where he could get two more
votes, shows the fairness with which
the old warrior fought. He was for
as there was hope for him to win, but
he was not against helping the "other
fellow" when there was no further
hope for Sac City.
Mr.. Sears has preserved the little
scrap Of paper all these years, and
prizes it as momento OF the battle
that, finally, failed in joint assembly,
and had to be settled by commission.

Little Wildcat Dies
of Grief For Mate

Grief for its dead mate, so common
among animals, caused the death Sun
day Of the second Of the pair of Wild
cats secured few months ago for the
zoo at Riverview park.
A week ago one of the cats died fol-
lowing an indisposition that had been
noticeable for several days. At that
time the little cats mate was appar-
emily in the best of health.
Immediately, however, upon missing
it's companion, the little fellow which
remained refused all food and moped
about its cage, refusing to be COM
forted. Dainty n1orsels were prepared
for it by Keeper Pearse. in the hope
of attempting the cat to eat, but the
animal refused to be comforted and
literally starved to death.
