Jewell, June 26.-Special to the

JEWELS poultry and egg man, drop
ped dead at Ellsworth last evening
at about S o'clock. He went out on
his egg route yesterday and north
of Ellsworth his rig was stuck in a

overdone in getting out of the mire,
as soon afterward he went into
Ellsworth, called at a butcher shop,
took a glass of water and dropped
dead. His heart suddenly stopped
beating. Mr.. Crosley was SO years
of age and nobody was better known
in and around Jewell than he. The
news of his sudden death came as
great shock to the family and
friends.
He leaves a wife, two sons and
three daughters-Mont Crosley, in
the drug business at Randall, and
Len Crosley; Bessie Of Randall,
Byrd of Michigan, and Sadie of Des
Moines. He also has sister at Ne
vada, a Mrs. Low. The deceased was
a member of the Modern Woodmen
order.
Owing to some Of the relatives liv-
ing at distance, the time for the
funeral has not yet been set.

To Save the Trees.

The E. H. Martin Telephone COM
pany has decided to place new poles
along Des Moines street, from in
front of the court house to Ohio
street, to carry their telephone
wires. Years ago the company put in
high poles, fifty feet long, in order
to take the wires above the trees,
but the trees have become so tall
that they interfere with the wires.
The new poles will be about twen-
ty feet high and will be placed out
near the curb line. The wires will
be put in a cable and strung upon
These poles. The cable will come
beneath the limbs of the trees, thus
not interfering in any manner with
their growth. The city has strung
electric wires up that street and a
number of trees have been killed be-
cause the city's wires are lower than
those of the telephone company.

City Manager Plan.

Several of the towns of Iowa, in
Guiding Webster City, are talking
of adopting the city manager plan.
1t is likely that Waterloo will be
the first. They have had consider
able friction in Waterloo because Of
the division of the town by the riv-
er and they hope to overcome this
by adopting the manager plan and
securing a manager who Is big
enough to serve the entire city, re-
gardless of location or previous
fueds or factions.
The new law under which the city
manager plan can be adopted takes
effect on the fourth of next month
and there appears to be a strong
and growing sentiment in this city
in favor of the plan. At present
there are about twenty towns in the
United States operating upon this
system and so far as the Freeman
Tribune is advised it is proving sat-
isfactory and popular in all Of them.
One of the most advantageous feat
ures of the plan is the recall. If the
manager does not come up to re-
quirements he may be displaced and
another selection made. There are
many advantages in the system for
the progressive, wide awake town
and it will not be many years until
! a large number OF Iowa towns will
| be operating under it. OF course
much opposition is expected to de-
velop from reactionaries' and from
those who profit by old methods, but
it is believed the masses of the peo-
pie will favor it and that it can be
put in operation in most cities with
little friction.

G.. E. Buell., Steve Miller and their
wives and children are camping out
in the woods near the F. D. Young
farm. They went Thursday after
noon and expect to put in week
rusticating. They have good tents
and are we'll fixed for just such an
outing and can have just as much
fun and relaxation as if they had
gone to Okoboji or Spirit Lake, ex-
cept that the boys won't have as
good an opportunity to buy fish. But
they can do lots of fishing just the
same which will bring the exercise
sought in such an outing. The
campers got wet little yesterday,
but no serious inconvenience result
ed. A good time and safe return
to all hands!
