MIGHT HAVE AVOIDED EXPENSE.
Wealthy Chenille Resident Could
Have Saved $4,000 by Purchas-
ing Railway Ticket.

Mason City, May 20.-The pur-
chase of railway ticket from Aus
tin, Mimi, to Des Moines would have
saved John l.. Weber, a wealthy
resident living near Chenille, a
small town four miles north OF
Northwood, more than $4,000, ac-
cording to a decree of the district
court of Austin, which has awarded
Mrs. Sadie Weber, $500 for al
legged alienation of affections of her
husband The costs in the case,
which was tried twice in the district
court and had been considered by
the supreme court of Minnesota,
were 1882.
The case was started about five
years ago. John L. Weber took
strong grounds against his daughter
in-law as TO her care of his sons
nome. Mrs. Weber finally decided
to leave and told her father-in-law
she would go if he paid her way to
DeS Moines. This he refused and
she soon after filed suit for damages,
alleging that had the senior Weber
not interfered she and her husband
would have gotten along all right.

STARVING CATS RESPONSIBLE.
Haunted" House at Davenport Fill.

Life HideOus.

Davenport, May 20.-The authori-
ties recently made an investigation of
stories told by neighbors that terri
tying sounds had been heard at the
home of Mrs. Wilhelmina Fahlen-
kamp, who was sent to the Mount
Pleasant insane hospital after keep
ing the body of her son for two
weeks after his death before report
ing it, and it developed that a dozen
starving cats were responsible.
For the past two weeks people in
the neighborhood had claimed to the
police that the house was haunted,
but no attention was paid to them.
Several families moved from the
neighborhood on account of the fear
that the house was haunted.
The officers found a dozen cats,
several already dead and the others
dying of starvation. They had be-
longed to Mrs. Fahlenkamp.

HURT BY CHICKEN HAWK.
Frank Goerdt of Earlyille Suffers
Blood Poisoning From
Wounds.

Earlville, Iowa, May 20.-Frank
Goerdt, ST., who resides a short dist.
ance east of this place, is suffering a
severe case of blood poisoning, from
injuries inflicted by large chicken
hawk, which Mr.. Goerdt had shot.
After the bird dropped to the ground,
supposedly dead, Mr.. Goerdt picked
it up and carried it to the house to
show TO other members of the fam
lily. Upon reaching the house the
hawk revived and began TO fight. 1t
embedded its claws in Mr.. Goerdt's
ahnds. Fortunately other members
of the family were on the scene. They
were compelled to kill the bird be-
fore they were able to free Mr.
Goerdt. The wounds on Mr.. Goerdt's
hands were given medical attention,
and 1T was thought that no serious
results would follow. Later in the
week Mr.. Goerdt's hands began to
pain, and when medical aid was sum-
moned it was found that blood poi
soning had set in, and for number
of days caused grave apprehension as
to the outsome.

farmer living south of West Liberty,

Church Members i'm Minority,

Mason City Dispatch in the Des
Moines Register and Leader: There
are 5000 of the people of Cerro
Gordo county who are in no way con-
nected with its churches or Sunday
Schools, according to DR.. K. @.
Brown of Fayette, who in an address
at the County Sunday School Conven-
ton gave an outline of the work that
ought to be done in the county. Two
thousand are of foreign birth, he
from any church. There are 5000
church members, 1000 of whom are
Catholics. ~
Such information as this will come
as sort of surprise to many, in
asmuch as Mason City has been a
prohibition city for thirty years or
more. 1t is the common belief that
those communities that do not have
the regulated liquor traffic are the
ones where church members are in
the majority.
The story of Mason City's liquor
fights and the condition of the traffic
there is much repeated story One
out Of every twenty-five of its in
habitants were arrested during the
last year for intoxication, according
TO the report of the chief of police,
and more than $4,000 worth of liu-
uor was shipped in by express Bust
ness men have made efforts to put
the traffic on an open basis by secur-
ing sufficient number of signers to
the mulct petitions. But they have
failed each time.
The theory that prohibition terri
tory has church members in the ma
1ority is wrong one. For instance,
Maine, the pioneer of prohibition
states has but 1913 of it's people mem
bers of churches. The following east
ern states, all of which have the reg
ulated traffic, have a much higher
percentage: New Hampshire, "A per
cent; Vermont, AZ; Massachusetts,
52.4; Connecticut, so. The figures
are more startling in the west. In
.>orth Dakota, which is prohibition,
only 34.3 per cent of it's people are
church members. Minnesota, having
the regulated traffic, is credited with
percentage of 41.2. In Kansas, a
prohibition state, the percentage is
26.4 Other western states having
the regulated traffic, and their per-
centages are: Wisconsin, 44.3; Ne
braska, 32.4; Colorado, 33.4; South
Dakota, 34.S.

Mill Burns at Prairie du Chen.

Prairie du Chen, Wis, May 49,
Fire at one o'clock this morning COM
pletely wiped out the planning mill
OF Keller & Martinez, causing a loss
Of over 100000, partially covered by
insurance. The mill was located near
the river, some distance from water
plug, and for this reason the firemen
were unable to do anything in the
way of saving the building. This is
the second time Keller & Martinez
have suffered from fire, their plant
being destroyed two years ago. About
forty men were employed at the mill.
The mill will be rebuilt.
