against her at the launching failed to

She used to carry $500 people, but they
cut down her maximum, after the So

II in self defense, because Hogan was
after him with an open knife, intend

That was the gist Of the testimony
At tho coroners inquest held in Cen
er Point yesterday afternoon, and the
verdict of the Jury. Eight witnesses
were examined by Coroner D. w. King.
Several OF them said that there had
been bad blood between the two men
for the past two or three years. Sat-
urday night both were badly under the
influence Of liquor. Where they OBJ
tanned the liquor may be ascertained by
tho county authorities later. Both OF
them becasno abusive, calling each 9th

threats what they were going to do to
each other. They went to q restaurant
1t 1880 O'Clock Sunday morning. They
had : large crowd with them It was
expected that something would happen.
Cochran went homo after the shot
that killed Hoglan had been fired. He
was found In bed q few hours later by
Sheriff Taylor, who took him to the
county Jail in Marion. For several
years he has operated blacksmith
shop In Center Point. He is the father
of large family.
Hogan formerly lived with his par
erits In this city, but two years ago
went to Center Point with his mother.
He has been employed there since that
time and It appears there had been
had feeling between the blacksmith

ably that Cecil was drowned. The
theory that he has either been kid

rapidly. y
saw Auto Stop Nsar Home.
Tho father. Oscar Goldthorpe, was
working in his garden and saw an
automobile stop in front Of their resi-
denca He Il certain 1t stopped for
three minutes, and how much longer
no does not know. Just few minutes
after this the child was missed. The
twelve rods ana the garden Is east of
the house. There are about ten acres
IN the garden. Hundreds Of automo-
biles pass tho house daily on the main
Travelled road between Mason City and
Clear Lake. He was not particularly
attracted to this machine, but tho fact
that Il stopped where the roads were
the very best now concerns him moro
than It did ON Friday. It might have
been . reckless driver and the child
could have easily walked down the
open Lane 70 the main road, where 1t
might have been struck and killed or
badly injured. Then 1t could have been
picked up and carried away. An I'M
fortunate thing is that the big country
road drag was at work on the roads
that day and passed over this place
several times before any one thought
to make examination. Had tie ground
been spattered with blood 1t could
hardly have been detected.
Reward 60 Be Offered.
A large number from Plymouth. the
former home Of tho Goldthorpe family,
were at the farm Sunday, assisting in
the search and extending sympathy to
the parents. After such thorough
searches have been made 1t would
seem as II the people would think that
there was no use to continue the
search, but today men and women are
at the scene trying to do all they can
TO ind the little boy. It is probable
that reward will soon be offered for
any news that win lead to the recovery
OF the boy. dead or alive. Before this
is done people are endeavoring to as
certain positively that he was not
drowned or IL lost and can be found
within q radius Of two miles from
home. Mr.. and Mrs. Goldthorpe are
fairly prosperous and are hard-work-
ing and splendid young people. There
were three children in the family.

Avoid Stralaht Lines.

The third, and last, of the great fundamental rules of landscape design,
 Avoid straight lines.p Is. in the opin- ion of the writer, of almost as great importance as the first and chief rule which the greatest authorities have Iaid down for governing our garden planning. As the average young lady says of everything that meets her ap- proyal: Tt is just too cute for any thing" It permits the entry of more art in detail than all other rules com oined, and provides for intricacy of de- sign; ease of approach, access without apparent restraint, and availability of all parts withoNt departure from the shortest line between two given points" Compliance with this rule is accomplished with more pleasure than .n dealing with any other. yet it is a dangerous dictate for the novice or amateur to deal with.

HOLD CHlLDREN's INTEREST
Garden Cultivation Has Proved Great Success in the City of
 Albany N. Y.

At the annual convention of the American Civic association Mrs. John T. D Blackburn of Albany. N Y, told a most interesting story of Children at Work in Gardens in her home city, where, during the past two or three years, thousands of children have been interested to develop flower and vege- table gardens about their homes. At the close of each summer session garden exhibit is held where are dis played the best selections of flowers and vegetables. plants grown in pots from seeds and plants grown in win low boxes. Awards are made to the children for the best efforts. Concern ing this kind of activity for children, Mrs. Blackburn said: Gardening gave increased health and knowledge of na- ture, and furnished continuous inter- est through the summer. giving a pur- pose to life. It kept the children at home and off the streets, promoted common interest in the family and re- 1uced the cost of living"

FOR PROPER CITY PLANNING
Authority Makes Assertion That Beauty and Commercial Prosperity
 Go Hand In Hand.

There is no reason why our cities should not be sensibly planned. There Is no reason why they should be al- lowed to run wild and grow without care and scientific regulation. There Is no reason why commercial consid- srattons should ruin the beauty of a city, and there Is no reason why con- alterations Of beauty should interfere with it's commercial prosperity" So said Arnold w. Brunner uf New York city at the annual convention of the American Civic association in Wash ington when he responded to the sub jeet, "Our Surroundings and Their h. fuence" Continuing, MT Brunner said There is every reason why these two considerations should go hand in hand and supplement each other They do so when we destroy stun, and let in light and decency, when We open up eougested district and replace a mass of dfsgraceful tene- ments by playground. when modern harhor improvements sHpersede old wharves and neglected water fronts. We must make 1t clear that city plan ming properly understood. is intended to prevent blighted districts: to pre- vent the ruin of our streets; to pre- vent the spoliatien of our parks and squares. We must make 1t clear that 1t is not only a good financial invest ment but that if brings a direct return in the improvement of the welfare. comfort and happiness of the citizen. believe that our newer ideas of social justice will produce better cities. Cities will 5e cleaner, healthier. more beauti- fu1, for even the untrained already feel that their rights are not recognized and realize vaguely that their sensibili- ties are hurt by unsightly surround ings. The outside Of the other fellows house is of more importance 10 us than that of our own. and he must consider us as we must consider him.
 The future American cities will be beautiful and inspiring. and Washing ton will lead them all. When the LiEnfant plan is push d further, as it surely will be, the Lincoln memorial finished. and the glorious mall. lined with dignifed buildings. sweeps triumphantly up to the capitol as a climax, we shall have a scene. back ground worthy of a great nation"

Paint Adds to Appearance.

All buildings and appliances on the farm will be improved greatly. both in appearance and in seryieeability. by the addition of paint One may buy ready-mixed paints, or may purchase paste pigments and oil and mix them. All surfaces should be clean and dry before they are painted. Use a prim- ing coat made of equal parts of paint and linseed oil and cover with one or more coats of paint, which should be thoroughly rubbed into the surface.
