SOMEBODY LIED-WHO?
Washington, Aug. 22.-Either
Senator Boies Penrose of Penn
sylvania or Geo. B. Cortelyou,
former national chairman of the
Republican party, is a liar.
This is the net result of the ex-
plantation as to how he came to
accept $4,000 from John D.
Archbold of Standard Oil made
in the Senate by Penrose.
Penrose said that Standard Oil
gave $125,000 to the campaign
fund in 1904, and that Roosevelt
and Cortelyou not only accepted
this, but wrote to Archbold that
they'd like to have $4,000
more.
Cortelyou, under oath, swore
that he had never heard of Arch
bold or any of his associates Civ
ing anything to the Republican
campaign fund.
Col. Roosevelt also has brand
ed Penrose's explanation as lie.

DR.: WILEY DECLINES
BOSTON POSITION

DR.. Harvey W. Wiley yesterday sent
a letter to Mayor Fitzgerald OF Boston
declining the Craftsmanship OF the Bos-
ton Board Of Health, recently offered
to him through Representative William
F. Murray of Massachusetts,. who was
commissioned by Mayor Fitzgerald for
the purpose.
DR.. Wiley was unable to accept the
position because Of previous contracts
and other matters which he found would
enable him to do a greater work in the
interest Of pure food and the public
health than the Boston position
In his letter declining the position, DR..
Wiley gives as the main reasons for his
action a fear Of a repitition Of the un-
cOngenial surroundings which led him to
resign as chief OF the Bureau OF Chem
istry, Department Of Agriculture.
Il may say that my experience in the
last two years as chairman OF the Board
Of Food and Drug Inspection" the let
ter reads, which consisted OF two per-
sons besides myself, has had q strong
influence upon me. 1 do not have the
honor OF the acquaintance OF the other
two members OF the board and l as
sumo that they are devoted to the pub
lie Service and sympathetic with all
movements which relate to the public
good. could not. however, contemplate
placing myself again in the condition
through which have passed in the last
few years. Ny idea Of a health officer
is that he should within the statute have
unrestricted freedom OF action and be
responsible for the results. l assume
that all orders OF the Boston board are
passed by a majority Of its members, and
it is easy to see that three persons,
each animated by the same desire for
the public welfare, might have entirely
different views respecting the methods
OF attaining IT."

'TlleInla.''

Manager Van Werden has secured
for the theatre gOers of our city /
special treat in the forthcoming en-
gageme nt Of the famous Northland
story of ''Thelma.' This world
read book will be presented in dra-
matte form at VanWerden opera
house for one night only, Wednes-
day, Dec. 18th. ''Thelma" is with
out doubt the most effective of Marie
Corelli's lighter stories, and it lends
itself to the dramatic scheme, max
ing it faultless play. 1t is a Nor
wegian tale, with a dash of the weird
mysticism of the old Vikings, the
Gods, Odin and Thor. The beaut-
full love story Of Thelma and Sir
and Thelma's unhappy life in Lon
don and the return of Thelma,
heart-broken to her old home in the
Alien Fjord, Norway, followed by
her husband to her snow-covered
home and their happy reconciliation
by the light of the Midnight Sun, all
presented by company of competent
players and mounted with special
scenery for every act.
A powerful side story embraces
the picturesque figure of Olaf Guild
mar. Thelmas father, a descendant
Of the Viking Norsemen. Later he
is stabbed to death by the witch and
he goes before he dies aboard his
Morse sea boat, sets it afire and
drifts down the stream in his Grim
son shroud of flame.
A scenic production will be given
in detail. the fire ship, the vision Of
the death-prophesying Valkyre and
the Midnight Sun. Seats will be on
sale at VanWerden & Kopp's, and
reservations should be made early
as this promises to be the best at
tended attraction of the season.

SCHOOL CHILDREN VICTIMS OF
IGNORANCE.
Fresh Air Indispensable to Proven
ton of DiSeaSe-SchOOlH Houses
Should be Ventilated.

Des Moines, Nov. 27.-As winter
draws near there is tendency ON
| the part of school boards and teach
ers to take measures for the pro-
| lection of scholars in the public and
parOchial schools by mailing down
windows or putting storm sashes on
school buildings. OF course it is i'm
portant that the children should be
properly protected but it is the
height of foolishness to follow the
usual custom of excluding all fresh
air from the school room.
Where artificial ventilation sys-
tens are not installed it is essential
that the windows in the room shall
be opened SO that an abundance of
fresh air may be admitted. When
the weather is extremely cold this
system of ventilation will have to
be modified by periodically opening
windows but in mild weather win
doWs may be lowered from the top
and screened with cheese cloth so as
to admit an abundance of whole
some air.
Most people do not understand
that coughs and colds and respira-
tory difficulties so prevalent in the
winter season among school children
are due to the lack of insufficient
ventilation and to the experimenting
of rooms in which the children are
compelled to sit for hours at a time
The temperature of a school room
should not be above 68 degrees
Fahrenheit and it may be one or two
degrees lower. These precautions
will prevent many of those disturb
ing maladies incident to the winter
season.
People in general keep their
houses too warm. 1t is said this
super-heating of houses and school
rooms which invite so much throat
and lung trouble in the winter sea-
son. Coughs, colds, pneumonia and
tuberculosis are few of the evils
resulting from the super-heated I'M
ventilated living or sleeping room.
Bedroom windows should be kept
open wide throughout the entire
winter and children should be given
the advantage of common sense
environment both in the school room
and in the home. The fear which
possesses many people unduly with
reference to the open air is tradi-
ton which has cost the state of
Iowa many lives. Give the children
of the public and parochial schools
plenty of fresh air. Boards Of edu-
cation should see to it that as winter
closes in schoolhouses are equipped
with the simple devices by which to
admit an abundance of good pure
air into the rooms where children
are confined long hours at exhaust
ing toll. . r.

Farmer Near Lineville Fell Under
His Wagon.

Pat Kelley, who resides on his
farm four and one-half miles north
west of this place, was very serious
ly injured on Friday afternoon by
falling under the wheels of his
wagon while on his way to town
with a load of corn. The accident
occurred on the Austin Johnson hill
only half a mile from home. He
had gotten off the wagon and after
pulling up the steepest part of the
hill, attempted to get on the wagon
while it was moving, by stepping on
the brake beam. His foot slipped
from the beam and he fell in front
of the hind wheel which passed
over his right hand and right leg,
crushing and breaking the bones Of
the hand badly and breaking the
bone of the leg just above the knee.
He was carried to his home and DR..
Lovett of this place, called to attend
him. .... d, .a.H w.. '.
Both injuries are of a serious
nature and he will probably be con
fined to his home for several months
before he will be able to get around
again. Mr.. Kelley is nearly sixty
years of age, hard working and re-
spected citizen and his misfortune is
much to be deplored Lineville

Leon 14-West High 0.
(By r. !. Benefiel.)

| With an advantage in weight of
almost fifteen pounds to the man,
the local team had little difficulty in
| tearing up the line Of the West DeS
Moines seconds Thanksgiving day
and as result the locals emerged
from tie fray with the winners
share Of the glory The final count
was 4 to and in the winning Of
this game the locals have secured re-
vCnge for the beating administered
! to them at the hanuS of this same
| team on last Thanksgiving day. At
no time did the visitors have a look
in for the game as they were out
played at every stage of the game.
| Their best chance to score came in
the first period when Hartley at
tempted a drop kick from the 20
yard line, but the play was blocked
and the ball secured by Leon. Again
in the final period it looked as
though the visitors were sure to
score a touchdown as they had the
ball on Icons eight yard line and a
| first down. However the referees
whistle for the call of time stopped
the game and gave the local team
shutout
| The work of the team as a whole
was great surprise to many Of the
local rOOterS as the eleven had been
| organized but three weeks and mad
| played but one game during the sea-
| son. Several inexperienced players
were in the lineup but the form as
! displayed by the team as a whole
reflects great credit on the players
and the school which they represent.
individually, the work of Leeper,
Grogan, Sears and Brown in the
back field and Teale and Gettinger
in the line was of the highest order
and deserves of special mention.
Icons first count came after one
and one half minutes of play. West
High kicked to Leon and the heavy
backs at once began a terrific on
slaught on the lighter line of their
opponents and marched the ball
down the field in great style, Sears
going over the line for the first
touchdown Brown kicked neat
goal and the count was Leon =
West High 0. The locals came back
strong in the next period and by US
ing straight football almost exclds-
lively soon had the ball within strik
ing distance and Leeper plunged
through the line for another touch
down just as time was called for
the end Of the first half. Brown
again kicked goal bringing the total
up to IA for the locals. There was
no scoring in the third or fourth
periods although Leeper again went
over the line but referee Evans de-
clared the play touchback as a
West High player had possession of
the hall West High sent in two |
substitutes at the beginning of the |
third period and Chamberlin, who !
was substituted for Nazen at full |
proved to be the star of the visitors |
offense. His plunges resulted in |
several good gains through the !
heavy line Of the locals.
A crowd of nearly five hundred
witnessed the contest and all seemed
to be we'll pleased with the quality
of football which was offered.
