Audubon County Farmers May Be Stuns

The United States postal depart
ment is looking into stock sales of the
Independent Harvester Co, of Plano,
ILL.,, which company has been selling
stock to farmers in various parts of the
county. Representatives of this COM
pany operated in Audubon county last
summer and sold stock TO a number of
our farmers. 1t is claimed that the
stock offered for sale at $50 per share
above par, is worthless and not of a
kind that will hiring dividends.
In the state of North Dakota an eff
fort is being made to incorporate into
their blue sky law some measure that
will debar such companies from the
state that will not give complete &C
counting of it's fiancial condition. The
Secretary of State is asked to investi-
gate the company and to make public
the results of his investigation.
A committee of Iowa farmers and
stock holders recently went to Plano to
learn something of the financial condi-
ton of this company, but their attorney
was unable TO give them any satisfac-
ton. However it was found that the
company appears to have already sold
in excess of 100000 of its Capital
stock at and above par and that the
total assessed valuation for 1912 was
Sl69,4S2. 1t is to be hoped that our
farmer friends have not been duped to
great extent by this Company that
has evidently promised much and de-
livered nothing, for it has been organic
ed for nine years and has never paid a
dividend.
These stock selling concerns usually
put up good proposition on the sur
face, but as rule that is as far as it
goes. The better plan is to purchase
your farm machinery of reliable local
firm and then you know what you are
paying your money for.

Epworth League Held Track Meet.

At the Saint Patrick social held in
the parlors of the M. f. church Monday
evening, the first annual indoor track
meet of the Audubon Chapter figured
as the leading event. The rooms were
artistically decorated in the true Irish
colors of green and white, in the form
of shamrocks and harps. As the young
people arrived they were presented either
a shamrock or harp, this mark of dis
tinction determining to which group of
contestants they would belong during
the events of the evening.
Referee Butler started the contest
promptly at 500 o'clock, captain Frick,
representing the Shamrocks, and cap
tain Preston. representing the Harps,
selected their ablest athletes for the
following events: 100 yard dash; shot
put; high jump; hurdle race, hammer
throw; mile run; discuss throw; pole
vault; broad jump and relay race.
Up to the last event it was question
as to which side would win the honors
of the meet. but the Shamrocks were
not equal TO the fleet Harps in the re-
lay race, and as result the final score
favored the Harps with 4Si points
against 42i points for the Shamrocks
Much enthusiasm was aroused during
the progress of the contests and it was
sometime before the shrieking whistle
of the referee brought sufficient quiet
to announce that the hour for refresh
ments had arrived. Refreshments
served a la Cafeteria, consisted of bread
sandwiches, tied with green ribbon,
pickles, coffee, waters and pistachio ice.
During the lunch hour several beautiful
victrolia selections were enjoyed. closing
with the famous Sextette from Lucia
THE one hundred or more young peo-
ple who were present were reluctant
about terminating an evening of such
universal pleasure, and hoped other
similar events would occur in the near
future.

Spencer Fails to Close Deal.

The Atlantic daily of Monday con-
tanned the following concerning Audi
bon people: "A hitch in the deal be-
tween r. G. Spencer of Audubon,
owner Of the Cass County Advocate
plant, and o. o. Conley of this city,
who traded Nebraska land with the
plant as part payment on the land, &C.
Cured today, the day set for the final
completion of the deal, when Mr.
Spencer refused to go ahead with it,
claiming a flaw in the title to the land
which Mr.. Conley, by the terms of the
deal, is to transfer to him. Mr.. Conley,
upon making the deal the other day,
sold the material in the Advocate plant
to this paper and this paper in turn has
buyer for it in sight, so that any
failure in the deal anywhere along the
line will result in litigation. 1t is
thought that the matter will be adjust
ed and the deal gone through with &C
cording to the original arrangement,
but there was nothing doing this after
noon. Mr.. Spencer, who came down to
close the deal, went home to Audubon
without closing it. The Advocate
office is closed and the curtains drawn. -
Since.the above was set up in type,
we learn this morning that Mr.. Conley
has brought suit against r. G. Spencer
for $4,000, for specific performance of
contract. 1t is claimed that Spencer is
not satisfied with the abstract for the
Nebraska land which he took in on the
deal for the printing plant at Atlantic.
People here and elsewhere will watch
the future progress of the deal with
interest,

Installing New Soda Fountain.

Hamilton & Schmidt, the hustling
and progressive proprietors of the
Boosters Cafe, are installing new
sanitary iceless soda fountain. The
new fountain has all the modern appli.
ances, and is so arranged as to make a
handsome. appearance. The wood work
is quartered oak and the trimmings are
marble and brass. Electric lights are
conveniently arranged in various places
on the sideboard and when lighted
makes a nifty, neat appearance. The
fountain would do credit to a town
twice the size of Audubon.

IS MONTHS OLD CHILD DROWNED
Falls in Boiler Of Rain Water While
Mother is Preparing Noon Meal.

A very sad case of drowning occurred
in Audubon Saturday at noon. Peter
Fredericksen, the blacksmith, reached
his home at noon, and his wife was
preparing the meal. Their eighteen
months old daughter was playing on
the kitchen floor. A boiler of rain
water was standing on the floor, and all
morning the child had been playing in
the kitchen. Mrs. Fredericksen was
expecting company for dinner and she
was busily engaged about her duties.
When the meal was about completed
she went to the cellar for some fruit
and was gone but short time. When
she returned to the kitchen she was
Mortified to find that her baby girl,
Lucille, had fallen head foremost into
the boiler of rain water.
She took the child out of the boiler
and sent for physician at once. They
worked necessarily with the little one,
hoping to bring back the life that had
evidently been snuffed out in the twink
ling of an eye, but nothing could be
done Life was extinct and no human
agency could replace the life that only
few moments before was so full OF
promise for the future.
The parents were heartbroken, neigh
bors and friends did everything possible
To assist the bereayed ones, The news
of the sad accident spread rapidly and
cast gloom over the entire community.
The grief stricken parents have the
sympathy of all in this most trying
hour.
Monday afternoon funeral services
were held at the home conducted by
Rev. J. p Christensen, and interment
made in Maple Grove cemetery.

SHELTER FOR BIG GREER.
Milwaukee Capital VIII Build Plant
When Toll Road is Completed.

A modern smelling and reduction
plant for the Big creek mining district
in this county is planned by j. d. Nc.
Cord, Milwaukee capitalist and min,
ing promoter, who is now investigating
that district. The building of the mill
which is to cost at least $4,000, Mr..
McCord says, depends largely ON wheth-
er or not the toll road now planned for
the Big creek country from the south is
completed. The matter of financing
this highway, which is to be built as a
toll road and later given over to the
public as free highway has already
been taken up by number of men pro-
minent with development Of central
Idaho.
Mr.. McCord and the men he repre-
sents stand ready to construct the mill
provided there is in sight sufficient
body of ore to justify the enterprise and
provided transportation facilities are
obtained so that they can haul their
machinery into the district. Should this
mill be built it will be located in the ap-
proximate center of the Big Creek
country. The chemical reduction mill
represents new process for the handl.
ing of refractory ores. BY means of
chemicals the metals are extracted
chemically pure from the ore. The pro.
cess has passed the experimental state.
A similar mill is being successfully oper-
ated in Milwaukee. t4s=
Mr.. McCord says the size of the plant
his concern would build in Idaho would
depend on the amount Of ore in sight
and the conditions under which it would
have TO operate. Plants are built in
