MAIN-DANAGE EST
MATED AT $1,000

The fact that four Of the pianos
sold yesterday by the Crafts company
were strapped TO the sides Of the big
automobile truck usea by that com
pauy in making deliveries with four
inch straps last night probably saved
the lives Of four negroes, and re-
duced greatly the amount Of damage
done the truck and the pianos.
The big Crafts truck being driven
south across Main street at Second
street was struck by Main street car
No. s22, westbourd. about o'clock
last night. The truck, hit on the left
side. was lifted suddenly and thrown
TO the street on its side. Trolley traf-
NJ was held up for nearly half
hour, until the straps binding the
pianos in place could be cut, the
pianos moved and the truck righted

capped without serious injury, though
he was considerably shaken ana SUI

Des Moines, Jan. Guy NJ. Gillette,
democrat and senator-elect from the
Ida Plymouth Cherokee district, will
have a seat in the senate when that
body convenes a week from today. His
certificate Of election has been sent by
the secretary of state. At the time
the official canvass Of the vote was
made it was decided that in case a
contest is filed before the certificate Is
issued a certificate shall not be issued
until the contest is settled.
The attorney generals office reversed
itself at the close of the year and the
certificate was sent to Mr.. Gillette.
When it was announced that George
F. Coburn. republican, had contested
Mr. Gillette's election it at once was
suggested that J. U. Sammis. retiring
senator, would occupy the seat until his
successor was elected and qualified.
Giving the certificate eliminates all
possibility Of Mr.. Sammis sitting in the
senate.

Things Women Should Know

"At this season Of tie year the COM
plexion requires better protection tnan
is afforded by powder. Dissolve an
original package Of mayatone IN nall
pint witch hazel and you have a COM
plexion bea utifier that makes the skin
soft. lovely, smooth and satiny. Gently
massage face, neck and arms with this
in the morning and your complexion
will need no further attention all day.
ANY woman can keep her hair clean,
light. fluffy and beautifully lustrous by
dry shampooing every week or Two.
and at the same time avoid danger OF
catching cold from washing the head.
Mix four ounces powdered orris root
with an original package OF therox;
sprinkle little on the head and brush
thru the hair.
Embarrassing wild hairs and fuzzy
growths are quickly and safely re-
moved by one application OF delatone.
Make paste by mixing powdered DEL

Des Moines, Jan. Before the week

hers of the legislature vii! have es-
tabiished them selves for the winter in

peared. There is really little excuse
for any Of them making their appear
arice before Friday. Always the first
brigade to appear is the brigade Of
seeks for the petty offices at the dis
posal of the legislature. They will be
on hand early, and are said to be unus-
ual1y numerous.
The message of Governor Carroll has
been completed and vii, be ready when
the legislature is organized. The in
augural address of Governor Clarke, so
1t is said, is practically finished.
The state house force is busy clean
ing up the legislative rooms and get
ting them In shape for the session.
Everything has been renovated. Work
Of installing the new elevators ordered
two years ago is not yet done nor will
it be fully completed when the session

CLARKE HEIR TO TROUBLE.
Governor Carroll Leaves eetnersome
Question for Successor to Settle.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Jan. 7-Governor Car
roll will probably bequeath to his sue
cessor one troublesome question which
IL to be left up in the air where it has
been a long time. This is the matter
of the demand on the part Of the state
Of Illinois for delivery to officials OF
that state of certain prominent bust
ness men of Shenandoah who are ac-
cused. in a somewhat indefinite way,
OF getting the best Of a bargain in the
sale of stock Of company which was
moved from Shenandoah to Monticello.
Governor Carroll did not exactly refuse
TO issue the acquisitions but he put 1t
off and it is still being put off and
probably will remain SO. A governor
has an absolute right to refuse to
grant papers If he chooses and in this
case it appeared that the acquisitions
were desired more as means of fore
ing q compromise on financial matters
than otherwise. 1t is not probable the
new governor will be disposed to per-
nit the threat of prosecution to be
used in civil matters.
