SEE TROUBLE AHEAD.
Des Moines People Preparing for
Struggle Over Street Car Franchise.

special TO III neS-HepuDllCan.
Des Moines, Oct. 23.-It is now be-
coming evident to most of the people of
Des Moines that what was stated in
this correspondence long ago Is true,
that a bare commencement has been
made in series of jockeying stunts
aent the street car franchise and bus
mess, which means a number OF years
OF trouble ahead for the city. But ii
also appears now quite plain that the
money lenders who took in the street
car plant as way of saving their
loans TO the old company and are now
trying to find a way to get their money
cut Of it with material additions. have
decided that they will throw the whole
matter into politics and make it the
controlling factor in the city elections
next spring. To this extent the pres
ent owners of.the property are con-
tributing nicely to the inevitable mud
die in municipal affairs Of next year.

The child was at the home Of a

the barnyard together. The piggies
were disturbed. and the mother-hog,
rushing at the girl, knocked her down,
and bit her in a dozen places, especially
mutilating the child's legs. Mrs.
Southwick was also attacked. but she
escaped with her baby in her arms.
and her shrieks brought Mr.. Southwick
to the scene. He beat off the mad
dened SOW. or the animal would have
killed little verna on the spot. un.
doubtedly. Her wounds are not, in
themselves fatal as noted above, but
doctors fear that infection may prove
so. altho every effort is being made to
avert such a disastrous climax.

The real opposition OF the company

plans by which the city will profit
either in reduced fares or otherwise
when profits become such as to war

: CHURCHES IN CHILE.
They Are Always More or Less In an
Uncompleted Condition.

They Are Always More or Less In an
UncompIeted Condition.
When walking through the streets in
any large town in Chile one is immedi.
ateiy struck by the fact that church
buildings are always undergoing re.
pairs.
One day you will pass church which
for weeks has had about six ladders
resting against the walls. Then an
other day you will find that they have
been changed to the other side. This
constant changing of ladders goes on
year in and year out, but no use ever
seems to be made Of the ladders.
though. perhaps, 4 new brick or bit
Of plaster will occasionally be added
to the building.
There would seem, however, to be a
very real reason for the presence OF
these ladders. The Chilean govern
ment, in fact. levies 4 tax upon church
buildings, but only when they have
been completed. In order to evade
this tax. therefore. no church ever has
been completed.
The law surely might be altered,
then. for the eternal presence Of these
ladders-certainly an ingenious idea
does not add to the appearance Of the
buildings or to the comfort Of pedes-
trians in the streets.-Lohdon Answers.
