The Driver and His Steed.

He drives his apopletic steed with
voice and reins and goad; no regula-
tions does he heed, no laws that rule
the road OF all his faculties bereft,
he is trying wight; he never fails
to take the left when he should take
the right. He swings his ancient
caravan across the street or lane,
and the anathemas of man fall on
his head in vain. He stops to talk
with neighbor linn, another hopeless
jay; they hold their teams and argue
in the middle of the way; they prove
the government is wrong, and roast
the idle rich, and travellers who come
along must pass them in the ditch.
Along the village street he reels, the
needless jay, by heck, and breaks off
fifty-seven wheels and makes ten
rigs a wreck. From left to right and
back he pulls, and takes up far more
space than would a herd of Durham
bulls if they were in a race. In all
the country out of doors the jay is
causing grief; of all the grievous
rubes and bores he's easily the chief,
and yet our statesmen rant and rave
until the welkin busts, and weapons
of destruction wave before the harm
less trusts. And what our country
needs, say. is less of this turmoil;
the law should gather in the jay,
and have him boiled in oil.-Walt
Mason.

CAUGHT RIFLING SAFE.
Sensation Developed at Cedar Falls
Friday Night.

Cedar Falls, Ia, Sept. 30.-Cor-
enlius Murphy, one of Cedar Falls
most prominent and wealthy resi-
dents, a man who has always stood
high in business and social circles,
was caught about midnight by Officer
Court attempting to rifle the safe OF
VIM. Laurence's place of business
Murphy was caught after a chase
extending down into the yards OF
the Chicago Great Western railway
and after Officer Court had fired sew
eral times at him.
MIR. Laurence and his son-in-law,
Henry Drohman, had been watching
this man and last night caught him
red-handed. About $40 was miss
ing from the safe and about this
sum of money was found on the
prisoner, besides keys that fitted the
doors of the building and safe.
Murphy promptly gave bonds and
was deceased 1t appears, according
to friends of Murphy, that Laurence
owed him 800 and would not pay,
so Murphy took this means Of get
ting even.
1t is the wish of every resident OF
Cedar Falls that Mr.. Murphy can
satisfactorily explain his acts.

NO RACE SUICIDE FOR EWALT
Marshall County Couple Are Parents
of Twenty-Five Children.

Marshalltown, Iowa, Sept. 80
What is without doubt the largest
family of children in the state was
augmented yesterday by the birth
of five pound girl, which makes
the eighteenth child of ID. X. Ewalt,
aged 10, a farmer living three miles
west of Albion, in this county. Al
together it is the twenty-fifth child
of the combined parentage of Ewalt
and his wife.
On October 3, 1911, the seven
teenth child was born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Ewalt, and then, it was gener-
ally believed in the family that she
would always be the baby" Such
proved not to be the case, however,
and as both parents are in good
health, it is not unlikely that the
family will be further increased in
due time.
Although Ewalt is 20 years ola
his wife is only 80. She is Ewalt's
fourth wife, and has borne him
seven children. She also had seven
by her first husband, total of four
teen at 80 years of age.
Mrs. Ewalt No. | was the mother
of one of Ewalt's eighteen children

ORCHARDISTS GOOD YIELDS.
Western Iowa Apple Men Dispose of
Large Crops at Fancy Prices.

Council Bluffs, Ia, Sept. 30
Apple buyers from Kansas City and
other points are busy in western
Iowa, and orchardists are having no
difficulty in disposing of their crop
at good prices. Large quantities of
apples will be placed in cold storage
in Council Bluffs and other points
near here, many of the farmers find
ing it more profitable TO hold the
crop for winter and spring delivery.
The crop is going to be larger than
it was btlieved it would be earlier
in the season, and reports generally
are that the apples are finer in quail
ity than last year The orchard at
the institution for feeble-minded at
Glenwood is yielding heavily of Wine
Twigs, and also of Jonahans, of
which variety it was believed there
would be few apples this year. Mr..
Colbert, who is the gardener at the
state institution, says they will have
good yield of all these varieties.
He says the Jonathans are not as
thick on the trees as last year, but
they are large, plump, sound and of
unusual good quality. Other orch
ardists in Mills county report the
same thing
At the state institution they have
just finished gathering their crop of
grapes The yield was eighteen tons
and the first had a market value of
over 81 900. The fruit was utilized
at the institution.

MINISTER'S AFFECTED.
Higher Prices of Cost of Living Cause
of Untitled Pulpits.

Sioux City. Ia, Sept. 30.-That
the high cost of living has manifested
itself toward the preachers through
out the country was the substance
OF an interview here today in con-
nection with the northwest German
Methodist Episcopal church confer
ence by Bishop Frank NJ. Bristol of
Omaha The hardships OF the min
listers have been many, he asserted,
in view of the fact that while the
increase of living has materially ad-
vanced, the salary of the minister
has remained almost stationary.
Rev. L. j. Breneer, superintendent
of the Upper Iowa district, declares
that unless better salaries are paid
to the ministers the congregations
will soon find themselves without a
pastor. He said that the very lowest
salary that should be paid preacher
is $500.

ROBBERS LOOT IOWA BANK.
Make Good Haul i'm the Town of
Lake Park, Near Spirit Lake.

Spirit Lake, Sept. 3O.-The State
bank at Lake Park, thirteen miles
west of here was broken into by
robbers, who secured $4,000 in cash
and escaped.
The lock of the vault was first
blown off and then the safe con-
tanning the cash, drafts, checks and
other valuables We're blown open.
In addition to the $4,000 in cash
the robbers secured drafts and other
papers.
The indications are that there
were five or six persons in the party
and they were evidently experienced
men, as they went at the work in a
systematic manner. The telegraph
wires were all cut for several rods
on each side of tn edepot. Nearly
all telephone connections were cut.
A sort of barricade was built out OF
woven wire at the bank corner also
in the rear, where it is believed men
were at watch.
The first explosion was evidently
about 1926 a. m, as that is the time
the clock in the bank was stopped.
Some of the robbers evidently came
from the west, as the motor section
car was stolen and run to Lake Park,
and after the robbery was run about
five miles northwest over the
Worthington branch line, where the
car was turned around and let go,
getting back at 6 10 a. m, where 1t
collided with cars in the yard and
was smashed to pieces.
One of the robbers evidently was
injured by one OF the explosions, as
there was blood on the bank floor,
also around the back way where the
entrance was made, and also on the
section car.
1t is thought the robbers headed
for. st. Paul in an automobile, as a
car with no number, containing six
men, went through Round Lake,
Mimi, a short distance north, with
lights out about a. m.
