Celebrate Birthday Anniversary.

Mr.. and Mrs. H. J. Savage enter
tanned a number of relatives and friends
at six o'clock supper at their home
Tuesday evening. The little party was
in commemoration of Mr., Savage's
43rd, birthday. It was birthday that
will long be remembered and in future
years may frequently be referred to
as the year when the nation experienced
the third Democratic landslide in the
past half century. Not all Of the peo-
pie had birthday on this day when the
people Of the United States were re-
cording deeds that will 60 down in
history to be read by the thousands yet
unborn. At any rate those present en-.
joyed the supreme hospitality of his
home. The supper was one that would
do justice to King, Prince or Poten-
tate and from the actions Of all, was
relished to the highest degree. and the
good housewife was freely complimented
for her adaptibility and proficiency in
the culinary art. Here's wishing Mr..
and Mrs. Savage many happy returns
Of the day.

rality have decided in favor of Wilson
and the democratic party. Like allgood

itself must in the end triumph for its
triumph is essential to the well being Of
the American people.
(Signed) Theodore Roosevelt"
At the time he issued the statement,
Col. Roosevelt sent the following tele.
gram to Gov. WILSON,

New City Well Tested.

Saturday morning another test was
applied to the new well being dug by
the city and it has proven satisfactory,
though the officials may conclude to
dig the well little deeper. The pump.
ing test proved flow of water average
ing SO gallons per minute and later this
was increased to 100 gallons per minute.
This would make the water supply suf-
ficient but the city council may con-
tinue drilling depth of few hundred
feet more, which from all indications
would give the city never failing sup
ply of water.

SOME MORE DOPE
ABOUT THE A. n. & S.
Twelve Day Extension Has Been Grant.
ed to Shaw BIZ His Assuming
Several Large Claims.

. The following from the Council
Bluffs Nonpariel of Saturday morning,
relative to the A. N. s. s. deal, is of in
terest:
A twelve days extension of time dur.
ing which former Governor Leslie NJ.
Shaw may take up the claims of the
principal creditors of the Atlantic
Northern and Southern Railroad. was
granted by Judge Thomas Arthur Fri
day morning to the syndicate which
bid in the railroad property more than
a year ago. f."
This extension may be the last to be
secured by the Short Line syndicate. as
on November 10 the Supreme Court
will be asked to restrain the prospec-
tive railroad purchasers from securing
any further extensions of time. How.
ever, If the principal claims are taken
over by Ex-Governor Shaw, the supreme
court proceedings will be with. drawn.
and there will be no further objections
from that source to another extension
of the time in which to complete the
payment for the A. N. g. s.
The formal order granting the 10
days extension was granted by Judge
Arthur at conference in Attorney
Hess Office Friday forenoon, at which
Judge John NJ. Reed of Des Moines,
representing Robert Ables, one of the
creditors, Judge W.. E. Miller of Des
Moines, representing the Shugart q
Barnes Brothers account, and w. A.
Follett of Atlantic, attorney for Re-
ceiver Harlan, were present.
The Ables claim amounts to $64, ST.
81 and the Sugart g. Barnes claim is
for 81 ,119,36. These two creditors Of
the road have been anxious to realize
on their account, and have resented the
continual delays in consummating the
A. N. & s. purchase.
With these claims removed the Short
Line syndicate will have time in which
to complete the sale of their 5000. 900
bond issue, upon which reliance is
placed to complete the purchase of the
road and to defray expenses of con-
structing the Council Bluffs Des Moines
line.

FORMER AUDUBON
RESIDENT dies
Dropped Dead While Trying to Start His
Autansbile Sunday Afternoon.
IVES Buried Here. rs

The sad news of the sudden and un-
expected death of ]. NJ. Hart which
occurred at his home in Wayne, Nebr.,
Sunday afternoon reached Audubon late
that evening. Mr.. Hart and his family
were out riding in their automobile
when Mr.. Hart complained of not
feeling very we'll. They had driven
a distance of about three miles when
the engine of the automobile stopped.
He got out to fix it and when reaching
for wrench, fell over forward, and
died instantly. Physicians pronounced
the cause OF his death heart failure.
Mr. Hart lived in Audubon eighteen
years being engaged in planning mill
while here. About three years ago he
moved to Wayne, Nebr., where he has
since resided. The deceased was man
well liked by everyone with whom he
came in contact and he had a large
circle Of friends in Audubon. He was a
member of the M. E. church of this
city and Of the Mason, Homestead and
M. w. A.. fraternal organizations.
J. NJ. Hart was born Oct. 5, 1852, in
Sparta, Noble county. Indiana and
died at Wayne. Nebraska, Nov, 8,
1912. He moved to Iowa in 1869 and
located in Carroll county. where Tenn
pleton now is. He was married III Au-

white city most beautiful. People by
the score have said 1--WE did not think
that a few hundred dollars would make
such change. We can now walk here
and there, without blush coming into
our countenance when we are called to
visit here. What an improvement.
The plots are now finely kept, the tall
weeds and grass are gone, the graves
have been filed. the drive ways are
kept clean and soon flowers of many
sorts will grace those places. On decora-
ton day last year. it looked more like
a flower garden than a cemetery, this
is surely as it should be-. / would that
the men and women who have dear
ones asleep in Maple GROVE and Airing.
ton Heights would continue to give of
their means towards identifying these
sacred places still more. If all will
help and cooperate, land all should be,
this is the last milestone in the earthly
carer Of mani these places will be kept
In sweet remembrance. People from
far and near will say, the people in
this community believe in blessed
hereafter, or else they would not be so
deeply interested in keeping in loving
remembrance those so true and good
who were once ours in this world and
shall be ours again in the sweet beyond.
1t is a mark Of Christianity and civili-
cation to remember those whom we have
loved and lost for little while. The
writer is proud of the men and women
who have given Of their means or time
to make this wonderful Improvement.
May no flower that grows be too sweet
to bedeck these beds, May no one re-
fuse to give time or aid to this import
ant cause. This coming year still
greater efforts will be made towards
Improvement. The writer has conf
dence in the people of this community,
we believe that every man or woman
worthy the name Of an American 'citi-
zen will be ready to respond and say
let the the good work continue, we are
deeply interested and will show our in
terest by doing our part. A thousand
thanks are due all those who have
showed their love and respect and given
of their means and time to this import
ant cause. Rev. Freedline.

.fhs White City"

When the writer first caught sight
of Audubon with her fine homes. her
school buildingsand churches, her pros
porous business interests. At once he
thought Of john J. Audubon the great
naturalist, whose namesake our thriving
city bears. Here nesting among the
hills is q town Of several thousand men,
women and children, all of whom are
Interested in industries, schools and
churches. AS far as beautiful homes,
wealth and intelligence is concerned,
Audubon stands second to none in the
state Of Iowa. Intelligent and up-to-
date teachers, with as fine lot Of
boys and girls as can be found any
where under the SUMS rays. these young
people are building that one imperish-
able monument, namely Character.
Earnest and devoted ministers of the
gospel stand in their pulpits proclaim
ing gospel messages of love and truth.
Her business men are wide awake and
interested in the towns welfare. All
and in all ours is most beautiful city
in which to live.
However it is Of another city the
writer desires to call attention. Yon-
der on the northern slope Of the hill,
where the flowers bloom and the leaves
60 to their death and where mans last
and long vacation shall take place is
the White City" When my eyes
caught first sight Of those sacred plots,
I said this will tell the story. as to
whether or not the living have forgotten
their dead. I was surprised beyond
measure. Here and there plot was
beautifully kept, but alas four out Of
every Ave plots were lost in the weeds
and tall grass, here and there sunken
graves, and holes in the ground which
had never he.n filed. Verify it looked
like q neglected country grave yard.
Time and time again have we stood by
the side Of men and women, in loving
sympathy trying to ease their broken
hearts, and the one predominant
thought in our mind was this. Why
does not our town with all her wealth
provide way for taking care Of this
most sacred spoti Why it Is here that
your dear cones sleep. and here many
moro that now enjoy life in as beautiful
. town a. the sun shines on, here many
moro win ere long sleep. Cannot some
thing b donef Yes. something was
done One Of the leading citizens Of
the town conceived q plan and the plan
has worked. In less than two years
wonderful change has been wrought.
II looks a. though the plot owners at
last arc reading the word Immortality"
In blazing letters above every mound
that marks the resting places of our
beloved dead. All yes these dead shall
live again, and must never as long as
time last be neglected or forgotten.
Thousands of people go every year to
visit these cemeteries and / am happy
to say. they do not find Gods acre a
neglected place. II has become the

enough counties are missing or are in

Tuesdays election brought many sur.
prises not only to the nation and state
but 70 Andubon county. From present
indications Roosevelt has carried the
county by small majority as the
table Of votes on another page Of
this issue win show. Gov. Clarke
has also carried the county by q small
majority.
Congressman Green has been re-elect-
ed. this county giving him substantial
majority. The great surprise Of the
election was the vote for Green in Cass
county where he received majority 81
800, He. was bitterly fought in Allan
tic by the press, but its influence does
not seem to have effected the voters Of
that county. Green's majority win
likely be smaller than two years ago.
The closest race Of all was that OF
Jacobsen and Foley for Representative,
and unofficial returns indicate that
Jacohsou's majority is,two. The cleo
ton Of Representative hung in the
balancs al day yesterday. As the
dinerept townships reported first one
would he in the lead and then the other.
The Official canvass may change the
majority one way or the other. =
The Democrats. elected practically
every oflcer In the county. The great
surprise was the defeat Of Howard E.
Kittell tpr County treasurer. He had
given thb county excellent services and
both Democrats and Republicans really
conceded his election, but inasmuch as
saints and sinners are punished alike,
Kittell had to 60 down to defeat with
the Test Of them.
