A Spotted Eagle.

Not many people in the past few
years have had an opportunity to
see an eagle in Hamilton county. b.
A. Wilson of this city and Mr.
Birdsall, who resides south of town,
saw one yesterday morning. Mr..
Wilson was driving to town from
the country and mile south of the
Catholic cemetery saw an immense
bird perched on a telephone pole at
a crossroad. He stopped his horse
and watched it and in very few
minutes an auto passed down the
road, soaring the bird. Just at
this time Mr.. Birdsall drove along
and also noticed the Eagle and stat
ed it was the first one he had seen
in fifteen years. The eagle was, Mr..
Birdsall said, what he had always
known as a spotted eagle. having a
white head and white spots on its
wings.

The Street Fakir

Two street fakirs were working in
Webster City today. One was on the
corner by Louis Franks clothing
store this morning and had a pan
litter made OF wire which he made
himself before the crowd. Quite a
crowd was in attendance and many
were sold This afternoon a street
worker was on the corner by the
Richardson jewelry store selling raz-
ors, and shears. The package sold
for dollar and contained a razor,
and three pairs OF shears A local
dealer who was in the crowd stated
that he had the same shears and sold
them for ten cents piece. Few peo-
pie take into consideration the fact
that local dealers may have the
same article or better for a lower
price. 1t seems queer that people
would rather buy Of a street fakir
because he gives a poor specimen of
oracory than they would to patron
ize home dealer, undoubtedly a
friend OF theirs and one who at some
time would show his appreciation Of
their patronage.

Brakeman Injured at Randall.

. J. c. Wilkinson of Ames,- was the
victim of bad accident in Randall
yesterday. Mr.. Wilkinson is brake
man on the Chicago & Northwestern
railroad and while at work slipped
and fell between two cars which
were moving slowly. With rare
presence of mind he succeeded in
getting from between the cars be-
fore being run over but not before
his left hand had been badly mash
ed. He was brought to the hospital
in this city where his thumb on the
left hand was amputated. He re-
turned home this morning. Al
though the injury is very painful, he
considers himself lucky that nothing
more serious resulted.

MEETINGS At THE
METHODIST CHURCH
Are Being Well Attended-Cottage
Prayer Meetings Tomorrow
Afternoon.
Afternoon.

Monday night, which is often con-
sidered an off night for religious
gatherings, brought out good sized
congregation to the evangel1stlc
meetings at the Methodist church.
Mr.. Smith, the evangelist preached
on "What do People Call You?" His
address was based upon the Beatitu-
|des, one of which affirms that
BLESSED are the peacemakers for
they shall be called the children OF
God" This suggested some very
personal questions. What" asked
the evangelist, "are the people call
ing you,-the champion booby-prize
winner, an old hirt, an old cross
patch, an old drunk, or one of the
children of God?"
A special number by the men S
chorus was greatly appreciated.
The service last night witnessed
three conversions. The testimony
meeting which followed was spirited,
many participating in it. A cordial
invitation is extended by the church
to the whole community to attend
these meetings. There will be good
singing, led by the mems chorus. AL
SO special numbers by the chorus.
Mr.. Smith will preach tonight on the
subject, "Satan's Synagogue or Gods
Temple?" There's welcome for
all.
Cottage prayer meetings will lie
held tomorrow afternoon at three
o'clock at the following places and
with the following leaders:
Mrs. Corinthia Day, 622 Stockdale

WANT ATTENDANCE OF $4,000

The FreemanTrlbune is IN receipt
of letter from J. w. Let's, who is
ATTENDING the Dairy Cattle Congress
in Waterloo this week. The letter
follows:
Gentlemen: Am at the Dairy Cat
tie Congress in Waterloo. 1t lasts
until Saturday night and it is such
a big thing that it is we'll worth
|anyones time and money to come
and see it. 1t is estimated that
there are over 1000 dairy bred cat
tie here, with over rs exhibitors. A
telegram was received this afternoon
from W. P. Schancks of New York
that he was on the road with Ayr
shires, but little late. 1t is said
that the Schancks herd is among the
very best in the country. The man
ayers are delighted and are holding
up the judging until they arrive.
Ebert Hubbard Is in town and
was making the rounds Of the barns
and exhibition halls today in the
company of w. w. Marsh. Guernsey
cattle breeder and separator manu-
facturer, and Hugh Van Pelt. When
they were passing Mr.. Marsh's herd,
one of the finest cows was brought
out and Mr.. Hubbard stood with his
hat off, his long flowing hair and
sunburned bald spot showing, and
heard a lecture on dairy cattle such
as only Mr.. Pelt can give, and Mr.
Hubbard said, lit was grand
But l am away off my text. My
idea was to write you something
about this show, merely to let the
neigh bors at home know what
treat is in store for them. and so
near home.
This is the fourth year of this
show. The first year there was an
attendance Of 5000; the next over
10000 and last year over $4,000
paid admissions to the show Now
they are hoping for $4,000 and are
striving to make the town Of Water
loo turn out 1900 of that number
There is an exhibit of dairy cattle

same time. Senator Cummins and

The speeches will be given from the
judges stand in the arena, where the
cattle are to be judged. There are
buildings each side of the arena
about 200 feet a part. These build
ings are each 150x225 feet. Anoth-
er building, nearly as large, is across
the end of the arena and they are
all filled with cattle The EXhibi-
ton Hall is filled with all kinds OF
things that dairy men use. and tell
me, If there is anything on earth
too good for dairyman. There are
silos and all necessary machinery,
separators, gasoline engines, etc.
| took run through the cattle
barns this afternoon and over sixty
Jersey cattle were numbered to go
into the auction sale and more than
that number of cows. There is only
one show that | ever heard of that
beats this one, and that Is in Chi

That is OF strictly dairy cattle. The
