LIED TO CONVICT RIVAL.
John G. Gates Moved to admission
of His Guilt by Picture.

Cedar Rapids, Ia, Feb. 5.-That
truth really is often stronger than
fiction and that moving pictures of
narrowing scenes sometimes have
their virtues, has been proved in
Cedar Rapids by the confession last
week Of John c. Gates that he swore
20 false testimony which sent his
friend, Charles Jack to the peniten-
Jiary.
A few nights ago Gates attended a
local moving picture theatre and wit
messed a film which showed bow a
man had been sent 10 prison Through
the false testimony Of q friend AS
the prisoners swung along in a lock
step to their cells, Gates was seized
with remorse and went to a lawyer
aud made an affidavit that Jack was
innocent of the crime for which he
served eighteen months in the state
penitentiary.
Gates and Jack both lived at
Iraer, Ia, and both loved the same
girl. Gates claimed that Jack met
him on dark street and at the
point of gun demanded $1,000, and
ticket to the end of the Rock Island
road. Jack was convicted on Gates
testimony.

HAUL SAND BY WHOLESALE.
Farmers Bring Loads Across Missis-
sippi River For Cement
Making.

McGregor, Feb. "a continuous
stream of farm wagons laden with
sand has been crossing the ice bridge
of the Mississippi from Lower Town,
Prairie du Chen, to McGregor for a
week. The farmers of Clayton coun-
ty are going into the use of cement
in building this year in wholesale
fashion. 1t is estimated 400 loads Of
sand already have been brought over
the river. Some of the farmers are
not taking time now to haul it out
to their places, but are dumping it in
Piles in town, later to be carried out
after ice crossing for heavy teams is
no longer safe.
1t is said several hundred loads
nave also been teamed out of Eliza
der and Farmersburg by Clayton
county farmers. AS soon as warmer
weather comes, this abundance of
sand will be converted into cement
floors for stables, hog pens and milk
houses and cement fence posts, walks
and foundations for new buildings.

pounds pressure of air, initiating his
body until even his clothing was no

Bohemians lie. = Kul,eIik,

Concerning the recent visit of the
great violinist, habei.k, to Cedar
Rapids, the Gaze hes the follow
ing story of local interest:
His memory is wonderful, and
his exhibition of its ability surprised
many of his admirers at the passen-
ger station. He remembered the
men he had seen in Cedar Rapids
ten years ago.
At the railway station, the violin
list was given a demonstration of his
popularity. From FIT. Atkinson, a dis
lance of Isl miles, came sixteen Boz
hemians to hear their countryman's
musical message from far off Bo-
hemia. Among them was an old man,
Augustine Hludek. He had heard
hubelik pay in Prague, Bohemia,
when kubelIk was a mere boy. He
had heard many of the leading VIC
linists. One virtuoso, now famous,
boarded in his neighborhood, and
Hludek heard him practicing his les
sons. But he must hear Kubelik's
violin speak again, especially when
kubelik would be as near as ISL
miles from his home.
FIT. Atkinson, however, was not
the only place represented, for Bo-
hemians came to Cedar Rapids from
many Iowa cities and farms. They
came to listen to this young man,
whose violin would again carry their
imagination to the villages in Bo-
hemia, where music is a part of a
mans life and where no event passes
without being set down in history
in folk songs that belong to Bo-
hemia alone.

Wolves Hungry and Bold.

Eagle Grove, Feb. Evolves in
Iowa are now uncommon, but there
are few in the northern part of
Wright county, and children going
home from school, near Cornelia,
four or five miles northeast of Clar-
ion, met with an experience. Two
wolves were feasting on the carcass
of a horse when they noticed the
children approach. They ran after
them, but the children took to a
tree and waited there until the
wolves returned to the carcass. The
deep snow probably had prevented
the wolves from getting enough to
eat.

BEWARE THE STOVE pEDDLER.
They Have Been Making Haul in
Jones County.

Anamosa Eureka: Stove peddlers
have been working in Jones county.
One Of them was rounded up here
last Tuesday, in an attempt to eX-
tract 2 county license. 1t was found,
however, that the law relative to
such had q hole i'm il big enough to
drive through all six teams that the
concern had securing the county.
The firm is a st. Louis one, and is
working out Of Olin which has been
made temporary base. The fellow
who was here stated that they had
disposed of two carloads of ranges,
which means that one hundred resi-
dents Of the county have given ten
TO fifteen dollars more for ranges
than could be demanded by local
dealers. The highest priced stand
ard range sold locally retails for S65.
The transients have been peddling
ranges Of the smaller sizes for $40
each. Tlis means that about $4,000
has gone out of the state into the
Pockets of those without interest in
the roads, the bridges, the enter
prises or the interests of Jones coun-
ty. 1t is hard to understand why
these fellows are able to market a
product at an advanced price over
local dealers who remain to face the
complaints and stand back of guar
antees. The little note, payable in
80 or 90 days without fail, which
is carried by the transients, appears
to be slick way of getting into
favor with buyers. 1t seems more
attractive than book accounts carried
by merchants, that may run a year
or more. But the little note will
bite hard when it takes a hold.
