KILLS his FIRST DEER.
Joe |. Warner, Former Leon Resi-.
dent, Kills q Deer at 600 Yards
on California Hunting Trip.

The following account of a hunt
ing expedition in which Joe l.. and
J. C. Warner, former residents OF
Leon, now residing at Stockton, Cal
ifornia, participated, is taken from
the Stockton Daily Independent OF
July 18th:
After a three days hunt in Os-
pital Canyon, County Recorder James
H. Kroh, Deputy Recorder Charles
II. Campbell, o. H. Grubbs, Joseph
l.. Warner and J. c. Warner returned
home Sunday afternoon with two fine
bucks, shot by Kroh and Joe War
ner, Kroh's capture weighed $50
pounds and Warmers tipped the
scales at 80 pounds.
Kroh reports that he saw no less
than Is deer and that doves and
quail were in abundance. He ex-
planned that he believed that the
hunters who had invaded the upper
part OF the valley, during the past
two weeks had driven many Of the
deer to the lower part, where his
party hunted.
Warner, one Of the best shots in
the county, told his friends that he
killed the young buck, which was the
first he had ever shot, at distance
ef 900 yards. Shortly after the ar
rival of the party at the farm house
which they made their headquarters
the host informed his visitors that
a big mountain lion had made raids
ON the calves of the section for the
past five years, always evading those
who went On his trail. The next day
Warner spotted the huge feline 400
yards away in the underbrush and
raised his gun for shot. He missed
the mark and tried again. This
time his aim was better and he saw
the fur fly from the beasts neck as
the lead gEazed it's hide.

DIR. EIKER is PRESIDENT.
Well known Leon Physician Elected
President of State Board
of Health.

DR.. B. L. Eiker, of Leon, who has
been a member OF the State Board of
Health for several years, was elected
president of the board at the annual
meeting of the board held at Des
Moines last Wednesday, succeeding
president A. c. Moerke, of Burling-
ton, whose term expired, by the
unanimous vote of the board. DR..
Eiker had made no effort to be
elected as president, but the members
of the board realized that he was the
man for the place, and it is an honor
worthily bestowed for DR.. Eiker has
been an ardent supporter of many re-
forms in the interest of the health
of the people of Iowa. The Des
Moines Register and Leader in speak
ing of his election as president of
the hoard says:
DR.. Eiker, the president of the
board, has been at the head of a
movement during the past few years
to abolish the present health board
and substitute a commission in it's
stead. lit is understood that DR..
EiEer will continue his efforts to de-
ve1ope sentiment favoring this
change. Dr.. Eiker's position before
the legislature last winter was that
the health board was unwieldy and
that too much of the work is dumped
upon the secretary. Better service
oCuld be rendered the state, he con-
tended, by a commission OF three
men on the job constantly.

Chautauqua Giving Satisfaction.

We have received copies of the
Cedar Rapids papers in which they
give the Redpath-Vawter Chautau-
qua big boost, the program having
given general satisfaction and the
attendance this year was the largest
ever had in the city. The Redpath-
vawter Chautauqua was held last
week at Northwood, Iowa, and Ed
X. Pitman, editor of the Anchor at
Northwood. who formerly resided in
Leon, says the program this year is
the best they have ever had. If you
have not already bought your Chau-
stauqua tickets, buy them now and do
your part towards helping the local
association dispose of the guarantee
number of tickets. Remember you
can not buy season ticket at the
8Chautauqua gate for less than $500,
but you can get them now from the
local merchants or at The Reporter
office for $1.50. Just think of 1t,
only III cents for each Of the SPLEEN
did attractions on the program.
That is mighty cheap for such ex-
cellent attractions.

Many Fail to Get Teachers Ger
tificAtes.

County Superintendent Long last
Saturday received the report of the
state examining board which made
the markings on the examinations of
applicants for teachers certificates
who took the examination in this city
last month. There were 1872 ap-
plicants for certificates, and only 48
were successful. OF this number
but three received first grade GER
tificates, 20 second grade, and rs
third grade. This was only 80 per
cent of those who took the examin-
alton. Either the examination is
very difficult or some of the appli-
cants are woefully deficient, for we
noticed in looking over the grading
that some applicants received as
low as four per cent in some of their
studies,
