President Declines to Make July 3 .
Holiday.
Washington-Halfma flags over
the government buildings were not
necessary to symbolic the gloom
which settled over the several thous-
and clerks and employees when they
learned that President Wilson had de-
clined to grant them full holiday on
July 5. Petitions had been filed with
the president setting forth that as
July 4 was holiday and the following
day, Saturday, inaugurated the Satur.
day half holiday summer schedule. It
would be appreciated II the chief
executive would make Saturday com.
plete holiday, thereby giving the clerks
three full days in which to enjoy
vacation. The presidents declination
was due to the fact that he did not
care to establish q precedent.

Ackley. Aug. 15.-Four prominent
young farmers living near Kesley paid
s21 each for Joke which included u

of the joke He had ordered barrel
of beer for medicinal purposes only
during the hot weather and when 1t
arrived at Kesley he drove in late
Tuesday evening and loaded it into his
wagon and started home.
Four young 5okists saw the start and
securing q long rope they followed In
an auto. About three miles southwest
of kesley the road winds thru q grove,
and as Ruther was driving slowly, the
boys slipped out Of the car, ran up be-
hind the wagon and tied one end OF
the rope around the barrel and the 9TH
er to a nearby tree. When the wagon
got to the end Of the rope, it took the
barrel to the rear end of the wagon
and over the end gate. Ruther saw
it go out the back end apparently
without any assistance and he decided
his satanic majesty was dry and levy
ing on the fluid and he whipped up his
horses lest the old one should DECIDE
to fasten his clutches on the owner.
The Young fellows. elated at the sue

apiece to celebrate and the stuff loos-

automobile omnibuses put into regular
service by tho Auto Transportation
Company carried 600 people yesterday.
As an indication Of the success of the

last evening in the new machines. Dur
ing the day they were we'll filled and
patronage kept up today.
The machines commence operation

probable that the company will take

m. and will give hourly service to the
northeast part OF town up to IL p. m.
Many of the residents are finding
the machines solution of their trans

giving about a twenty-minute service
and every effort is being made to keep
the cars closely to the regular sched-
