Wins a Bushel OF Candy.

Perry, Ia, Nov. 1S.-Robert Nc
Kinney of Redfield won about BUSH
ell of horehound candy on the recent
election and his bets were perhaps
the most unique of any in the vicin-
ity. Mckinney is not gambler, but
he is an ardent democrat and for
years he has believed his party was
the most popular. I'll bet you a
pound of horehound candy" was the
way he would back his faith and in
variably he lost until last Tuesday.
A pound was the limit with any
one man, but the wagers were so nu-
merous that when the final results on
president were made known Mckln-
ney had eighty-one pounds of the sore
throat candy delivered him by his re-
publican friends. There was bushel
of it all told.

Strike Oil i'm Iowa.

There is considerable excitement
at Blanchard, Iowa, over an oil dis
covery. For some time large quaint
tiles of oil have been taken from a
we'll which provides the railroad walt
ering tank with water. The oil is APP
parently refined through it's passage
through water at considerable
depth and burns with great brilliancy
in lamps A report just received from
a Chicago chemist who made an an
alysis of the oil, is that it contains
the greatest percentage of gasoline
ever shown in this country. There is
considerable paraffin in the oil also.
Several have offered to finance the
find. Blanchard is a small town in
the extreme southern portion OF Page
county, right on the line between
Missouri and Iowa.

A SENSATIONAL CASE.
Father and Son Face Trial at Algona
on Serious Charge.

Algona, Ia. Nov. 16-On a change
of venue this county will hear the
case of the state against w. H. Whip
pie and his son H. F. Whipple. The
crime is an unmentionable one, the
accusing witness being the daughter
of the former and sister of the lat
ter. The crime for which these two
men will stand trial is alleged to
have been committed at Rutland. For
two or three years the most ugly ru-
mors have been afloat in the neigh
borhood in which they live, and, it
is stated that the Woodman Lodge
took the matter up and found them
guilty. 1t is also stated that trial
was to be or had been held in the
local Methodist church 1t is stated
that the girl, Miss Luella Whipple,
aged II years, had made a written
confession. duplicating both her faith
er and her brother. 1t is also stated
that later she repudiated the sworn
statement stating that she told the
story under duress. Maurice O'Con-
nor of FIT. Dodge is to assist the at
torney for the defense. The trial
will come up at this term of the
court.

Legislature to Decide Contest.

A very pretty contest in the legls-
lature is certain from the senatorial
district comprising Cherokee, Ida and
Plymouth counties. The returns
showed that George F. Coburn was
elected by small plurality over Guy
Gillette, democrat. When the count
was made it was found that the re-
publican was apparently one vote
behind. But it also appeared that a
large number of votes were discard
ed because of persons voting the pro-
gressive party ticket and placing an
X in front of the name Of Roosevelt
where there is no square. These were
discarded on the theory that they are
identifying marks placed there so
that the voter might identify his BAL
lots afterward. 1t has generally been
held that unnecessary marks OF this
kind are not to be classed as identi-
flying marks. If they are counted
then Coburn is elected. The state
senate will decide who is elected.

A Gravity Clock.

A unique timepiece has recently
been invented by Eugene Walser, a
matchmaker in Los Angeles. Four
years of work has perfected clock
which keeps accurate time, but is
without spring in its entire make
up. The motive power is gained by
the clock rolling down an incline,
regulated by a wonderful arrange
ment of weights on the inside of the
clock. There is no winding to be
done, but every thirty days the clock
is lifted to the top of the incline and
begins to slide downward. The dial
does not revolve with the case, but
remains as an ordinary dial with the
figure IL at the top The incline is
of polished wood, sixteen inches long
with an eight and a third per cent
grade. There is no relation between
the wood and the clock-it is simply
a matter of properly adjusted weights
which move the hands and control
the downward motion of the time
piece.

Man is Declared Dead.

ago, Nov. Z, William Karnatz, one
time wealthy farmer of Worth coun-
ty, arose from the breakfast table
at his home, left the house and from
that hour not scrap Of information
has been received from or OF nm.
This was testified to before Judge
Kelley in district court here last week
and his share of the estate of his late
father, amounting to between "a, 1000
and $4,000, was ordered divided
among the heirs.
Karnatz was then a boy. There
had been no trouble in the family and
his leave taking was apparently with
out cause. Search and inquiry has
been made for years but no informa-
ton has been secured. Legally ne
was declared not son of Christian

Our Precious Pie.Plant.

'Who but some confounded old
Yankee woman" once exclaimed a
physician, renowned throughout the
medical world, " would ever have
invented rhubarb pie?"
Voice and manner, no les than
! language, implied his contemptuous
mental association of acid herbs with
acid temperamentS. Perhaps he had
so often prescribed "Tinct. Rhu. /"
that it's purely medicinal suggestion
was overpowering; possibly he had
experienced the pangs and penalties
of rhubarb pie in eXcess-"pie such
as grandma used to make" with a
sodden under crust fit to test the di-
gestion of an elephant.
Grandma's granddaughters. who
bake their crust first and pile in their
rhubarb afterward, provide dish as
wholesome as it is delicious. Yankee
housekeepers of today may as fairly
resent the aspersion cast upon their
desserts as that upon their DISPOSE
tons.
The plant, indeed, is herb of
J pedigree, with recorded history OF
over four centuries. 1t was first cul-
tivated in the white-walled gardens
of Morocco and Algiers, amid fruits
and flowers and fountains, and was
! brought thence by the Moors to
: Spain.
Andrew Borde-"Andreas Parfor-
atus'', as he liked to sign himself in
punning Latin-the merry old monk
who obtained a dispensation from his
VOWS that he might travel and study
medicine, was the first Englishman
TO learn it's virtues. He fell i'll dur
ing his Spanish travels, and shortly
afterward wrote home to friend:
1 II sende you the seeds of Reubarb,
/ the which comes out of Barbary. In
thes lande ytt is had for grett treas
ure"
Not until two hundred years later,
however, did rhubarb really become
{ known to- English gardens, whence
in due time it was brought to those
/ of America, to be employed first as
/ tincture. then as sauce, and to
attain a final apotheosis in pie.
Rhubarb. apart from it's useful
ness, has value for its beauty. The
giant Chinese variety, with its encr-
nous leaves, is often employed by
/ landscape gardeners to produce bold
sub-tropical effects; nor do they al
ways disdain the charms of the more
modest pie-plant itself, of which the
tall, graceful spikes of white flowers,
and large leaves deeply veined and
stained, are as certainly handsome as
the succulent stalks are palatable.-

A REMARKABLE WOMAN.
Age Has Not Impaired Mind of CerrO
GordO County Octogenerian.

Mason City, Iowa, Nov. 16.-This
county is the home of remarkable
woman. She is Mrs. Cornelia Can
non and she has been a resident of
this county for the past fifty years.
She is now approaching ninety years
of age and it is probable that there
are not a dozen people in the county
so thoroughly posted in past and
present events as she. For over for
ty years she has lived within three
miles of the city but in all this
time has never came to town." She
simply has no desire to come. The
city has grown from a hamlet of 500
to city of $1,000 in this length of
time. She is lady very highly es-
teemed and is the recipient of num-
erous visits from her large circle Of
acquaintances.
