ference of United Brethren churches
which is held in Vinton this year.
Rev. Peterson has had charge of the

berry Center churches for the past
two years and has done most excel
lent service. but he feels that the
three charges are most too many for
him and says that he will probably
not return to this appointment His
many friends both In his congrega-

this and hope that some way may
be provided whereby the work of
the appointment may be lightened.

Mrs. w. T. Davis of Williams Makes
Personal Canvass for Hos
pital Fund.

Mrs. j. l.. Kamrar of this city is
in receipt of the following letter
from Mrs. w. T. Davis of Williams
in relation to the fund being raised
for Mercy hospital: .
Williams, Iowa, Sept. %, 1912
Mrs. Kamrar. Dear Madam: You
will remember a Mrs. Davis who
spoke to you at the booth on Hos
pital Day ABOUT sending you check.
Well, have been collecting here in
Williams, yesterday and today, and
Mr.. Davis helped. We now have on
hand $40 and by the last of the
week hope to send you a check for
more, as we have some others yet to
see. l believe that Jewell and KAN
rar would contribute for an elevator
for the hospital. They have sent
lots of sick folks to our Webster
City hospital and 1 believe they
would be glad to help, as I find ev-
cry one willing so far here and ev-
cry cent helps the good work on.
would so like to see this thing fin
ished, now that it is commenced.
Wishing you success in this grand
work, l remain, helper,
Mrs. w. T. Davis,
.n R. F.. D. 4, Williams, Iowa.
Mrs. Davis suggestion about the
people in Jewell and Kamrar is a
good one and no doubt our neigh
bors in those places, as well as in
other communities throughout the
county, would be glad to help in
this work if only some one as loyal
to the cause as Mrs. Davis has prov
en- herself to be would bring the
matter to the personal attention of
the people in these different locali-
ties The local hospital is for the
benefit of the sick and afflicted all
over the county, as we'll as here in
Webster City, and our outside
friends are certainly interested in
any move for the betterment of this
splendid institution.

COMPLAIN
OF the FOOD
AND STRIKE

The track laying crew Of the Ore
gon Electric went on a strike yester-
day on account Of the cooking and
serving Of the food furnished by the
boarding camp. There were about 200
men affected, and with 15O laid off by
the contracting firm of Guthrie, Nc
Dougall & Co., the city is pretty we'll
filled up with idle men. They are
mostly Greeks, Italians and Austri-
ans, but there are few Americans
among them They are all pretty we'll
supplied with moneY, and seem to be
pretty peaceable and quiet for men Of
that class. There was no dispute
about wages, but there was a strong
protest on account Of the food. The
men claim they cannot work on the
food supplied, which is spoiled in
cooking and arrangements will be
made at once for new gang Of
cooks, and then the men will re-
turn to their work. Some of them
have already returned, but there are
not enough to start work. The strike
occurred about six or seven miles up
the river near Halls ferry where the
end Of the track is now. From pres
ept indications, the officials of the
road say, that within a day or two a
full crew will be at work, after which
time work will be rushed along at the
rate Of two miles Of track a day
1t is claimed that a Portland firm
has the contract for supplying all la
borers at so much per man, and that
this firm is not dissatisfied when the
men quit, as It gets its 50 for each
man sent up in the place Of the quit
ters. 1t is intimated that this had
something to do with the trouble.

PLANT 100 ACRES
TO LOGANBERRIES

Speaking of the loganberry busi-
ness, people will be interested to
know of the largest acreage yet
planted by any one grower. Refer
ence is made to the farm of L. H.
Roberts and his associates, who have
bought large farm On the Garden
Road four miles east of the city.
They have already planted 100 acres
of logans, 100 acres of potatoes, 40
acres of cherries and 35 acres of
prunes. This has been done quietly,
but 1t is well done, on the best of
soil and will produce a big crop of
money producing stuff. Potatoes
have also been planted between the
fruit rows, which materially in
creases the earning capacity of the
project. They have secured a fine
quality of loganberry plants, which
Will no doubt produce over half a
crop next year This will make
work for scores of laborers and
fruit pickers in season, and promises
to be a money maker for the owners
as we'll.

DOBBS TO SHOW HIS
WONDERFUL PICTURES HERE

Straight from the heart of Alaska,
where he has been for 10 years,
comes Beverly b. Dobbs, the Alaskan
photographer with a remarkable coll
lection of arctic films. For two
hours Mr. Dobbs leads his audience
over snow and ice; sometimes by
land, sometimes by sea, portraying in
a most intimate manner all Of the
strange hooks and crannies in the
land up there. One moment the
spectator is enjoying the more or
less sedate business of watching a
gold cleanup. the next he is leaning
forward as the little schooner crushes
her way through the polar Ice in the
wake OF an immense polar bear.
Later he Is travelling over the 500
mile mail route in the land Of the
great white silence, behind Eric
Johnson's famous mail dog team. The
next he is travelling the mighty Yu-
kon and watching the midnight sun
at Circle City and the next, ascend
ing in bucket line up the noun
tains at an elevation Of $500 feet in
a ride of three and a half miles to
the great Bonanza mine, the richest
copper mine in the world.
Dobbs and his camera will be at
the Grand Opera House Friday and
Saturday, April 30 and 27, with Sat
urday matinee.

Sacramento, Cal, April 23.--Copies
of each of the initiative petitions now
being circulated in Colorado under
the new direct legislation law passed
in that state last winter were re-
ceived here today. Among these
measures for which the people Of
Colorado are working are:
A constitutional amendment estab-
fishing the recall of all elective Off
cials; a recall Of decisions Of courts
declaring laws unconstitutional; the
allowing of trial by jury and before
another Judge to anyone charged by
a Judge with contempt Of court not
committed in his immediate pres
ence; mothers" compensation
bill, promoted by Judge Ben b. Lind
say Of Denver, providing pay for
needy mothers to stay at home and
take care Of their children, rather
than having the state pay for the
children's care in a state institution
and a bill establishing state coal
mines, whse product is to be sold di,
rect to consumers as nearly as pos
sible at cost.
Another amendment sought is to
create a public utilities court, SINH
lar to the California state railroad
commission. Still another would
utilize all school houses after school
hours as forums for the people for
discussion of public questions.

STRONG TEAM.

From the results of the tryout for
the Varsity track team yesterday af-
ternoon 1t looks as though William
cite will have some track team this
year. Not withstanding the fact
that the season is early yet and that
some Of the men have only been out
once or twice before the tryout, some
fine records were made and to those
who are interested In this end of the
university's athletics, things look
bright for a winning team. The try
out uncovered some fast men, espec-
tally in the sprints, McInturff, who
won the quarter and the hundred, is
a new man and looks like a point
winner. Doane at the first night out
took the pole vault at nine feet five
and should raise that a great deal
before the end of the season. The
following are the results: 220, Lowe
first; mile, Burdette first, Marsh
second, Stearns third; time, five min
utes, seven seconds. High jump:
Mills, feet. Shot: Francis, first;

The Economical Cooking Fat

There is both economy and solid salts
faction in cooking with Cottolene. Not
only is It more economical than either
butter or lard-one-third less being re-
quired-but it can be used in fine cakes
and pastry with every bit as good re-
suits as butter, and for frying it exeelS
lard or other cooking fats.
Unlike lard, Cottolene makes food
wholesome, nourishing, digestible. It
is made from Cottonseed Oil, the use
Of which DR.. Wiley so strongly has
commended.
Cottolene shortens your food--length-
ems your life, and saves you money at
the same time.

This was at daybreak, and all cries
had stopped long before"
The officer stated that he saw no
bodies floating in the water At 1870
o'clock, he said, he saw a white light
on the horizon, but was unable to tell
whether 1t was from a lifeboat or a
steamer.
Pittman then went into details of
the scene, which Boxhall, fourth Of
ficer of the Titanic, had described
He said that he saw distress rockets
sent up from the Titanic, but saw no
morse signals, AS the Titanic sank
he looked at his watch and noted that
1t was 2:20 a. m,, according to the
ships time. He had not heard that
the Frankfort was near the scene.
How Ship Went Down.
The officer admitted that If every
lifeboat had been crowded they would
have accommodated only 1900 persons
He asserted that he transferred two
men, a woman and baby from his
boat to lifeboat No. T. at their re-
quest.
Asked to describe the Titanic's
laundering, he said.
"The Titanic was submerged to the
forecastle, and afterwards turned
over and went down perpendcularly.
I heard four reports like big guns in
the distance. This was probably
caused by the bulkheads bursting.

I saw on the ship wore a lifebelt ex-
cept a few members of the crew. I

Titanic sank
cries We're Pitiful.
Asked If he heard cries of distress,
he replied sadly;
"Oh, yes. ! heard crying, sobbing
and moaning and praying, too. But
there was no noises until the ship
sank"
Pittman started his testimony in a
laconic and brusque manner Com
ments on his stolidness were audible
In every part of the room. Then the
committee began questioning him on
the scenes on the Titanic when 1t was
found that there was no hope of saw
ing the vessel Pittmans demeanor
underwent a complete change, and in
a choking voice he begged the COM
mittee not to press him regarding the
death cries Of the trapped victims.
A Chorus Of Woe.
'The prayers and means Of the pas
sengers arose in a mighty chorus Of
woe when they learned that hope had
vanished" Pittman said. at was a

standing near a lfeboat, and he heard
him ask about boat loaded with wo-
men. Captain Smith, Pittman said,

WARDROBE NEEDS MUCH CARE
Amply Repaid, However, on the Score of Economy, as We'll as Having
 Proper Appearance.

People are not all naturally neat and tidy but often "a word to the wise is sufficient" If dress is taken on and thrown to the floor, perhaps in damp state, or even hung up undried, when next wanted for wear it will be found crushed and draggled; whereas, If care is taken to shape it we'll, place it on hanger and hang it where the air has chance to dry it. the garment will appear fresh and neat when wanted again. The wardrobe of an untidy. careless girl or woman will cost her twice the amount of her more tidy neighbor. and she will never look so fresh and trim
 Hats often suffer most. A hat comes bright and new from the milli- ner's, is worn day after day, tossed on a bed or chair when taken off and left for all dust and dirt to adhere to it. After months wear it is hardly fit to be seen. The girl who keeps her new hat for clear days, brushes 1t careful l ly, arranges the bows or flowers, then puts 1t away in box or covers 1t with paper, finds 1t a pretty hat as long as she requires it. "A stitch in time saves nine" is very true saying re garding all clothes. A garment Is sent to the laundry with small hole, re. turns with far larger one, and at last Is thrown aside only fit for the rag bag. If the same garment had been mended in time it would have lasted months.
 Stockings should have special no- tice. All thin places should be neatly darned before they become holes.
 A veil rolled each time it is taken of will keep neat much longer than when folded: gloves pulled out and smoothed will wear twice as long as if they were crushed and tossed into drawer.
 Dresses should be folded right side out and covered with paper or an old sheet. Keep all drawers, chests and wardrobes neat and clean and all arti- cles carefully sorted, not all mixed up In a state of confusion. Be neat and you will be amply repaid for the little trouble 1t causes you.
