EXPENSIVE JOY ride
Party of Five Have Narrow Escape
4 When Car Turns Over.

Wanted - information concerning
the identity of five young men, who
Sunday morning took possession of an
automobile, a property other than
their own, drove it recklessly about
for mile after mile and abandoned the
car, broken and battered, a hopeless
wreck on South Eleventh street,,
G. Harold, Mayor.
But the boys have this to be thank.
for for. None of the party of five or
more were killed when the car skidded
and rolled over and over. The lads
picked themselves up as best they
might, following escape from serious
If not fatal injury and hurried away
from the scene of the disaster before
anyone might discover their identity.
Apparently they have succeeded
The car taken by the young JOY
riders was the property of Frank w.
Else. The boys found it parked near
the NJ e. Church while the owner was
at service Sunday morning. Just what
time the car was taken is not now
definitely known.
The accident occurred about 11:20
o'clock on South Eleventh street u
short distance from the U. G. Deck
residence. Mr.. Deck who was an eye
witness to the accident supposed
someone would be badly hurt as the
car rolled over several times. The
boys were driving hard and the car
was being urged to the limit of its
power when the driver lost control
and it skidded and finally landed in
the ditch, hoplessly damaged.
Thinking to render first aid to the
injured, Mr. Deck hurried to the scene
of the accident and was not a little
surprised to see the former occupants
take up the road on a run and start
toward town, going west on the NJ. Il
st. L. railway tracks.

know, but we will get our help direct

Mr.. Else missed his car after the
conclusion of the service and when
the matter was reported to the city
police the missing car and the acct
dent were connected.
A cap of one of the lads was picked
up near the scene of the spill and the
owner NAV have the same by calling
at the police headquarters and claim
ing it.
After the car had come to rest and
the boys started toward town one of
them returned and picked up a grip
that appeared something like those
made for musical instruments and car.

that suffrage is the Invest topic in
Iowa today.
AT present we have fifteen town

really very active" says Mrs. Dewitt
when asked regarding her county &C
tivities. Some of them are still
working at the county canvass, some
are arranging for meetings at school
houses, and some are arranging for
township socials and teas. The ex
ecutive board of the county consists
of the county officers and the town
ship and ward chairmen.
The first meeting for which this
board arranged was an election rally
which proved to be the biggest politi.
cal meeting of the county during its
election campaign.

shouldn't we vote?"

this time the list of voters, copied

In addition to the executive board
and the press committee there will
be five special committees working
after the first of the year. One of
the most important OF these is the
finance, since Mahaska county is f.
nancing its own campaign. A clev-
er little suffrage farce will be given
to raise funds for this work.
ITO place pennants in churches,
school houses and market places. to
decorate conveyances. to procure the
use of billboards and to place signs,
are some of the duties of the public

Before next June there must be
suffrage talk and suffrage poster in
every township and hamlet in Ma.

there may be a talk in every school
