Little Lewis Macgoey Has Bone in
Toe Broken by a Circus
L. Horse.

Little Lewis Macgoey, younger
son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. l.. Macgoey,
was unfortunate enough to receive
a slight injury which might easily
have been very serious one Satur-
day morning about s o'clock, while
he and his brother Billie and anoth-
er small boy were watching the cir
Gus unload in the Northwestern
yards. The lads heard Cne of the at
tendants, who was unloading horses,
say 'look out boys" and they all
jumped without waiting to see what
threatened them. Unfortunately
Lewis moved in the wrong direction
and was pushed over by one of the
circus horses and the animal in step
ping caught his foot sufficiently to
break the bone in the big toe How
ever, the show horses are so we'll
trained that this one stood perfectly
still and Lewis crawled out from un-

BRYAN OPENS Will
L|ANS CHAUTAUQUA
Many From Hereabouts Hear Ex-
Secretary Lecture on "The
Causeless War"

Many from this city went over to
Williams Sunday afternoon to
hear the lecture by w. J. Bryan up
on "The Causeless War" Only
about thirty went on the train, but
dozens went overland in their cars.
The crowd was the largest ever seen
in Williams. 5000 or 1000 persons
being present for the lecture. Two
hours before the hour of the speech
the tent was nearly full and an hour
before, not only the tent was full,
but the space between tent and out
er wall-which, after Bryan arriv-
ed was taken down-was packed
with people to hear the late secre-
tary of state.
Admirers of Bryan were delight
ed with his lecture, while those who
are not admirers, saw between the
lines of his speech only the building
of political fences for future con-
quests.

Place was Crowded.

The Webster City rest room was
full on circus day from s in the
morning until 8 in the evening with
people from all over the county. Ov-
er two hundred and fifty persons
found rest and were benefited by
the room during the day. Several
were i'll and required the care of
the matron and many babies were
cared for besides the full quota of
adults. Such room upon such a
day is a blessing pure and simple
and fulfills the mission of its exist
ence.

MAN HAS AN ATTACK
OF TRENENS HERE
Sheriff Nelson was Taking Him to
the Hospital at Knoxville
Is Barber.

An exciting time was had Friday
night about $50 o'clock with a
barber from Blairsburg who had
been taken yesterday by Sheriff Nell
son before the federal court at Fort
Dodge and committed to Knoxville
for inebriety. The sheriff with his
charge had returned to this city
when the unfortunate man had an
attack of tremens. Eight or nine
men were necessary to hold the man
before he could be gotten into the
county Jail for safety. His rawlings
and sufferings were pitiable in the
extreme. He was taken to Knox
willie Saturday.
Those who ever have witnessed
the sufferings of a man in this, the
last extremity of alcoholic indulg
ence, have temperance lesson
which they never will forget.

Slight Collision,

A slight collision occurred Monday
afternoon at the congregational
church corner on Bank street, when
a Ford car with two ladies in the
back seat, going north, ran into a
larger car going east. The east
bound car was damaged to such an
extent that it had to be towed into
the garage for repairs. This car was
the property of Robert Fisher, as
near as could be learned, but it was
to ascertain the name of
the driver of the Ford.

RECKLESS SHOOT
ING KILLS COW
Valuable Animal Belonging to Chas.
Swanson Dies From a Gun
shot Wound.

Chas. Swanson, who resides in the
southeast suburbs of the city, just
east of the F. A. Huddlestun farm,
lost a valuable COW Thursday night,
the animal having been shot by
hunters or boys on the Swanson
premises.
Thursday night the cow did not
come up with the others at night
fall and a search was made for her.
She was found to be very sick, but
no wound was visible, so the veteri-
nary called did not find until the
next morning what was wrong.
Then the COW died, and upon skin
ming the carcass, a wound was found
in front of the flank. A full charge
of buckshot had been received in
one of the vital parts of the body,
from which the COW bled to death
internally.
Mr.. Swanson would not have TAX
en- s1OO for the ANNA, and consid-
cred her his most valuable COW.
This is the elimination of years
of promiscuous shooting every year

N. Little Loses His
Pocketbook. .--

M. n. Little, of Calexico, Califor
mia, who is here on a visit with hi!
niece, Mrs. Richard Riley and fam
lily, on south Superior street, had his
pocket picked Sunday night during
the jam at the Illinois Central de-
pot while getting on the train, at
least that is the supposition, al
though the book may have been lost
by him. If it was dropped on the
depot platform and found by any
body Mr.. Little will give a liberal
reward for it's return. The pocket
book contained $2S in money and a
Wells-Fargo travelling check for 500.
Mr.. Little and Mrs. Riley were at
the depot to take the o'clock train
westbound on trip to Brooten, Min
nesota. w. J. Bryan, who opened
the Williams Chautauqua Sunday
afternoon was on this train going to
Fort Dodge, where he spoke that
evening. There was a very big crowd
at the depot, many people getting off
the train and many others boarding
it to hear Bryan in the evening at
