A Pleasant Reunion.

Mr.. and Mrs. Nels Torp residing
on west Bank street had the pleas
ure of entertaining all their chill
dren and grandchildren in this city
over Sunday. 1t is the first time all
have met together under one roof,
and the first time the three grand
children have ever met. Those pres
ent were, Mr.. and Mrs. James N.
Torp and daughter Catherine, of
Ft. Dodge; Rev. and Mrs. c. Evans
Lamale and son Dwight, of Columbus,
O.; and Mrs. Andrew L. Peterson
and daughter Janet, of Chicago. Mr..
Pedersen was unable to be present.
Other friends dropped in to call dur
ing the afternoon and the day was
an especially happy one for Mr.. and
Mrs. Torp.

ONE THOUS-
AND CARS TO DATE
The National Sewer Pipe Company
Sends 1OO0th Car to Brad
ford, Iowa.

*The National Sewer Pipe com
pany's factory has now been in op
Grafton about year and today the
thousandth car of the products OF
the factory was shipped. 1t was
consigned to Chris Nelson, a con-
tractor, at Bradford, this state. Thi.
is certainly a good showing for the
first years business and means an
average of about three and one
thirds cars per day for every work
ing day in the year.
There is every indication that the
National Sewer Pipe company is go
ing to prove a great thing for Web
ster City and for the stockholders.
It's products are coming to be known
by the trade all over the country
and it is building up a reputation
for good goods and right prices that
must eventually put it among the
leading factories of it's kind in the
United States.

Threshing Going On.

Threshing is going ON at a rapid
rate all over the county. The
smoke of the steam thresher may be
seen lifting its dark plumes along
the horizon in almost any direction
one cares to look. The yield of oats
is good and they are threshing from
30 to 60 bushels to the acre, with
an average of perhaps 40 bushels.
The majority of farmers are hauling
and selling at prices offered, which
have been from 27 to 33 cents. In
Illinois they are selling their oats
now, almost to man. In one coun-
ty, it is said, sixteen out of eighteen
farmers have already sold at market
prices. One reason given for the dis
posal of oats SO early in the season,
is that the prices offered during har-
vest last year were better than Of
fered later. Another reason is the
war in Europe, which is an excuse
for prices of foodstuffs fluctuating in
one extreme or the other.

ANOTHER BAD AUTO
MOBILE ACCIDENT
Hobart Argraves Sustained Three
Broken Ribs and Car is
Badly Damaged.

Another automobile accident oc-
Cured Sunday about noon one mile
east of Highview, which resulted
fortunately for all concerned. The
machine owned by Antoine Erickson
of Elmore, Minn.,a land driven by Miss
Gertie Argraves, who resides about
twelve miles northwest of the city
was more seriously injured than any
of the occupants. 1t is charged by
the engineer of an Illinois Central
passenger train that the party was
racing with the train. The car in
which six people were riding was
being driven from the Argraves
farm home to this city, four young
people being in the rear seat and
the front seats occupied by Miss Ar
graves and Mr.. Erickson. AS the
car approached a high narrow piece
of road about one mile this side Of
Highview, which was bordered by a
ditch on either side, Miss Argraves
turned her steering wheel to the left
trifle and her companion, fearing
that she was turning it too far to
the left, grasped it and gave it a
sharp turn to the right, cramping
the front wheel entirely and throw

ing the car completely over. Mr.
Erickson threw Miss Argraves clear
of the car and himself escaped in.
jury. The occupants of the back seat
were all scratched and bruised to
some extent but only one, Hobart
Argraves, sustaining broken bones
having three fractured ribs. He was
brought at once to this city where
his injuries were dressed.
J. M. Steeley of the Parkhurst &:
Lavender garage, heard about the
accident from the engineer on the
Illinois Central passenger train, and
drove his car to the scene where he
was requested to bring the wreck
ed car back to the garage in this
city. He drove the machine in on
it's own power although it was badly
wrecked. The windshield was brok-
en-, as was the radiator, and the TOP
was torn and mashed. The front
axle was badly bent and minor
scratches sustained by the car which
was an Overland.

WEBSTER COUNTY
Will Gravel ROADS
Board of Supervisors Make Prepara-
tions for Treating us
Miles.

The board of supervisors of Web
ster county have decided to gravel
IT'S miles of roads in that county
during the next eight years, or about
twenty-five miles a year. Hamilton
county's board ought to get ready
to do the same thing and if the
work is properly done this part of
the state will be one of the best to
travel in and there will be much
more travel than at present. Web
ster county figures out that the pres
ent rate of tax levies will complete
all the county roads in eight years
and that the money will be wisely
and satisfactorily used. The people
Of Iowa are now ready for good roads
and they are ready to pay for them.
All the public will demand is sood
work at legitimate prices.

May Be ORGAN|zA-
ton Of AUTO THIEVES
Believed That Gang is Operating
Throughout State at Present
Time.

Automobile owners in Webster
City and Hamilton county will have
to be careful or their chug wagon
will come up missing some of these
fine mornings. 1t is believed by the
authorities that an organized band
of auto thieves are now working in
Iowa. Some one steals the machine
and passes it on to pail who in
turn passes it on to still another.
The operations reach from Illinois
to Nebraska. A car was recently
recovered at Council Bluffs that had
been stolen at Galesburg, ILL.,, and
the officers traced other cars to Des
Moines and elsewhere. The thieves
change the registered number as
soon as they get the cars. They al
so put new tires on them and in
some cases cover them with coat
of paint. In fact, many things are
done to make it difficult to identify
the property.

OF DEMANDs-FoRCED INTO ACTION

ed all newspaper men at l o'clock
yesterday afternoon in order that
they might receive instructions in
regard to the publication of news in
event of a state of war coming into
force.
ASSURANCES TO AMERICA.
Tawaaki Kato, the Japanese for
eign minister, simultaneously with
the dispatch of the ultimatum, con-
ferred with George w. Guthrie, the
American ambassador, and made to
him a broad statement calculated to
assure the United States that Amer
lean interests in the far east would
be safeguarded. and the integrity of
China upheld.
Owing to doubts whether COM
munications with Berlin were assur-
ed, Japan in order to insure the ar
rival of the ultimatum forwarded it
to Berlin by six channels, including
Washington, London and Stockholm.
The government also notified Count
Won Rex, German ambassador to ia
pan, likewise, and retarded the time
limit for reply until Aug. 23.
Count Okuma, the japanese pre-
mier, yesterday invited the peers,
the newspaper men and the leading
business men of Toxic to come to
his Office at noon, at o'clock and
at o'clock in the afternoon, re-
spectively, when he made known to
them the terms of the ultimatum
and announced that he would give
out the negotiations in connection
with the alliance.
PREPARING FOR WAR.
AS it is not considered likely that
Germany will comply with the Jap
anese demands, preparations are
proceeding for campaign by force
of arms. The British regiments in
China have received instructions to
hold themselves in readiness for
transportation.

farm HOME BURNS TO
GROUND NEAR HOMER
.. -
Amos Godsell Family Lose ALI By
Fire-Insurance to Amount
of $1,000.

While Mr.. and Mrs. Amos Godsel
who reside on the old Henry Daily
farm south of town, were visiting al
the home of neighbor last Friday
night, the residence on the farm
was burned to the ground.
Just as they were starting away
from the neighbor's home, a tele-
phone message was received to the
effect that Mr.. Godsell's house was
on fire, but by the time they reach
ed home, the house and all it's con-
tents had been totally destroyed by
fire. A practically new piano was
burned and no doubt relics and pa
pers that were invaluable.
No one has any idea how the fire
started. There had been fire in the
cook stove that day, but the flue
had recently been examined by an
insurance company, SO it seems
could not have been defective.
No other buildings were Destroy
ed. An insurance of $1,000 on
house and furniture will in some
measure repair the loss, but Mr.. and
Mrs. Godsell will have the sympathy
of all in the loss of their home.

at Iowa Falls.

The Rev. j. B. Smith family, for
merly of this city, now of Waterloo,
were the victims of an avoidable au-
tomobile accident last Thursday af-
ternoon while returning to their
home from Iowa Falls, to which
place they had gone from here.
When somewhere on the highway
between Iowa Falls and Waterloo, a
big touring car attempted to pass
them on the wrong side, striking
their car on one side of the rear so
violently as to throw both children
out over the doors. The young lady
who was riding with the children
was severely bumped and bruised
about the head. Mr.. Smith was cut
and bruised about the hands and
head and it was not thought at the
time that Mrs. Smith was seriously
injured, but the following morning
she was unable to be up and the
next day was taken to the hospital
where she was doing very we'll at
last reports.

FORCED INTO ACTION.

Inspired utterances express regret
at the inability to maintain neutral
ity, but say that Great Britain, the
ally of Japan, is compelled to de-
fend herself against the agressions
of Germany. Moreover, it is pointed
out that Germany is making Prep
arations day and night at Kiau-
Chau, where it is storing provisions,
while its warships are securing the
seas of eastern Asia, to the great
detriment Of commerce, and that its
converted cruisers are seizing Eng
lish merchant vessels. Such actions,
it is argued, are directly calculated
to disturb the peace of eastern Asia,
and, accordingly, after full and
frank communication with Great
Britain, Japan has found herself
compelled to send an ultimatum to
Germany.
The Japanese war Office summon

Toxic, Aug. 17.-Japan sent al
ultimatum to Germany Saturday
night at o'clock demanding the
withdrawal of German warships
from the orient and the evacuation
of Kiau-Chau and giving Germany
until Sunday, Aug. 23, to comply
with the demand. Otherwise the ul-
timatum states Japan will take ac-
ton.
The general expectation here is
that the ultimatum will be followed
by war.
TEXT OF DEMANDS.
Following is the text of the ulti-
matum:
eve consider it highly import
ant and necessary in the present
situation to take measures to remove
the causes of all disturbances of
the peace in the far east and to
safeguard the general interests as
contemplated by the agreement of
alliance between Japan and Great
Britain.
''In order to secure a firm and
enduring peace in eastern Asia, the
establishment of which is the aim of
the said agreement, the imperial
japanese government sincerely be-
lieves it to be its duty to give the
advice to the imperial German gov
ernment to carry out the following
two propositions:
"First-To withdraw Immediate
ly from Japanese and Chinese waters
German men-of-war and armed YES
sells of all kinds and to disarm at
once those which cannot be with
drawn.
"Second-To deliver on a date not
later than Sept. Is to the imperial
Japanese authorities without condi-
tion or compensation, the entire
leased territory of Kiau-Chau with a
view to the eventual restoration Of
the same to China.
"The imperial Japanese govern
ment announces at the same time
that in the event Of it not receiv-
ing by noon on Aug. 23, 1914, an
answer from the imperial German
government signifying its uncondi-
tional acceptance of the above ad-
vice offered by the imperial Japan
ese government, Japan will be COM
PEELED to take such action as she
may deem necessary to meet the

OIL INSPECTION
NETS BIG AMOUNT
Report of State Inspector
Shows Great Profit For
the Treasury.

For the first SiN months III 1914
there were 74,7sS.5S gallons Of kero-
senc and 124,07s.5a gallons Of gaso-
line inspected by the state department
and u total of $49,719.2S collected in
fees OF this amount $7,750.91 was
required for salary ana expenses OF
the inspector and his deputies while
the balance $4l, ,719.2S was covered in
to the state treasury.
Inspector Jackman in his report to
the governor makes the statement
that his department has received but
few complaints of inferior oil being
sold. During the month of July the
Eartles Northern Oil company object
ed to paying the inspection fee and
took the matter into court where they
obtained an injunction against the
state and at the present time the mat
ter is before the supreme court where
it has been advanced OH the calendar
to December 16. on which date it will
be argued. it is thus advanced in
the hope that the decision of the court
will be rendered before the converting
of the legislature. 1T has been stated
in some quarters that if the oil COM
Dany wins the state Will have to re-
fund all money that has been collect
ell for inspection fees, but according
to the best legal authority this is not
the case.
