4The Shepherd of the Hills Coming.


Gaskill and MacYitty announce for
production at the opera house on Tues
day, March 4, Harold Bell Wright
Naturalization OF his very popular novel,
"The Shepherd of the Hills" In max
ing the dramatization, Mr.. Wright was
collaborated with by Fishery w. Rey-
nolds.
The Shepherd of the Hills" is story
of humor and pathos told in a simple,
direct manner; of love, mystery and
heroism, with its scenes all in the Ozark
mountains. southern Missouri, where the
author lived and preached for some
years. There are several exciting in
cidents. including the night ride of the
splendid heroine over the hills through
q storm; an attack upon the shepherd,
and the moral victory of man when
a panther is about to spring upon his
rival, but there is no melodramatic touch
to the play.

BILE IS NATURES DISINFECTANT

Science now teaches that disease
is due to an implanted germ of some
kind. Not only infectious disease,
but all other disease colds. throat
troubles, intestinal troublesall
these things are due to implanted
germs. These germs once in the
body, multiply by millions. Nature
provides for their determination, but
sometimes ID unequal to the task.
When nature begins to lose in this
fight Of determination, you soon feel
the excess toxins or poisons-your
head aches-your tongua is coated
you are dizzy and you grow worse
unless this multiplication Of germs is
checked, stopped. or inhibited, as the
Doctors say.
The flow of Bile mnst De eeceler-
ated before you get relief, Bile is
the disinfectant that stops the null
duplication Of germs--that inhibit
further germ growth. Release this
Bile and relieve the trouble.

At the Benevolent Home, After Forty
Years Residence In keokuk,
Aged over Sixty
Six Years.
WAS BORN IN SWEDEN
She Was ehrlstian Woman and a
Devout Member Of the
Swedish Methodist
Church.

Mrs. Anna Christine Malm died at
the Birge Benevolent Home at ll:45
o'clock this forenoon. aged nlnety-six
years, eight months and fourteen days
She was native of Sweden, coming
to this country at an early day and
had been resident of Keokuk for for
ty years or more. She was member
OF the Swedish Methodist church and
her Hfe was that Of a sincere christian
woman. She possessed a sweet, low
abb disposition and her associates we're
greatly attached 10 her and will feel
deeply the absence of her gentle smile
and kindly words of sincere tender
ness. She had been at the home for
over four years and in all that time
has been a favorits among all who
We're associated with her.
While she was declining from the
complications which accompany old
age, it is evident that seribus at.
tack of erysipelas FASTENED the day
of her death. Sunday afternoon a
small spot appeared on her face which
spread rapidly on one side of the face
and finally overspread nearly her en-
tire face. This, with her feebleness by
age was more than her delicate system
could bear and she passed away to
the better land, mou1ned by hosts OF
friends who knew and admired her
many excellent qualities.
She is survived by two daughters,

Small Bone in the Cheek is Broken
When He colIides With
Heavy
Plank.
KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS
Force of the Blow Puts Him Asleep
For TWO Mnutes-Doctor,s
Examination Reveals
Hurt.

Henry Martin, one of the drivers
for the Gate City Steam Laundry
was the victim of peculiar accident
this morning. He struck a plank
which was laid across some bricks in
front of the federal building, and
broke a bone in his face. He was
completely stunned by the accident
for few minutes.
Martin had gotten out Of the wagon
to get some laundry from the govern.
ment building, and ran into the plank
which was sticking out from the pile
of bricks, according to his story The
force with which he struck the plank
was sufficient to throw him to the
ground, and he was picked UP uncon.
scious.
Mr.. Martin recovered consciousness
in few minutes and returned to the
Office where he washed the blood off
his face. He felt the wound painins
him a great deal and finally went to
a doctor. An examination by the doc
tor disclosed the fact that one OF the
small bones in his cheek had been
broken by the point of the lumber.
The wound was dressed and while
Mr.. Martin is able to be around, his
injury is giving him considerable
pain.

OLD TIME RESIDENT
DIED IN CHICAGO
G. w. kretsInger, Who Was Once Assoc
ciated With the Late Pro-
fessor Jameson.

The announcement comes from Chi
cago of the death In that city yester-
day Of George w. Kretsinger, aged six
ty-seven years. Many Of the older
people of this city. when called to
their mind, will have a recollection of
Mr.. Kretsinger as he was for time, a
resident of this city and was connect
ed for a time with the late w. w
Jameson In conducting private
school in Keokuk. Some of the keokuk
grandfathers were probably among his
pupils
In Chicago paper of this morning
is printed sketch OF him IN connec-
tion with the announcement of his
death, and in giving his war record
in which he was active and adventur-
GUS, it says:
Mr.. Kretzinger was born at Ply
mouth, Ohio, August IL, 1916 and was
the son of Issae Kretsinger. who was
one of the first abolitionist ministers
in Ohio and Illinois. At the age of Ia
he ran away and enlisted in the army.
As member of the Blackhawk caval-
ry he was engaged in warfare in Mis-
souri, against the guerrillas.
He was one of the fourteen scouts
of that regiment and was frequently in
the Confederate camps of Quantrell,
Price and other leaders. Afser being
taken prisoner add exchanged he
joined the army OF the Potomac and
served through the wilderness cam.
paign.''
The same paper states that latter
graduating in law at Otterbeln uni
versity. Ohio. few years after tie
| close of the civil war. Mr.. hretsinzer
studied law in the office of Judge Dill
lon in Keokuk, Iowa. There is an
error here for there is nothing to show
that Judge Dillon never resided here Oh
maintained an office in keokuk, but
with whom he read law, if with any
body In this city. nobody could be
found who could give any light on the
subject. He may have depended en-
tirely on his graduation papers in law
obtained in the Ohio university, and
obtained his license to practice law or
/ private examination. as it is believed
that he did enter the practice of Law
before leaving Keokuk. "a few years
later" continues the Chicago paper
"he moved to Chicago, where he has
been an active member of the bar eve,
since. He incorporated the Santa Fe
Prescott and Phoenix railway com
pany in 1891, and was its general coun
sci for several years. He was fo
eighteen years general counsel for til.
Monon railway. Afterwards he repre-
scented the Grand Trunk system in thi
| city, while maintaining general prac
tice."
The Chicago Bar Association tool
prominent notice OF his death and az
pointed committee to represent tn
bar at the funeral. At the bar meetin
Judge kehlsaat pronounced a fittin
and eloquent tribute to his memory
saying in closing:
His career as a soldier was bri
. liant and creditable. 1t Is hop.d tina
he has left some record of those tel
rible days. In his family relations h
