FARMER HURT;
FILES A SUIT;
VESSEL SAILS
immigration inspector, Sc
riouSIy injured, Starts
Libel Just Too Late

Edwin Farmer, federal immigration
officer, received serious injuries this
morning while boarding the British
freighter Saint Ronald, off quaran-
tine. Farmer fell some distance to
the main deck. He received frac-
tured shoulder and other bruises. He
was attended by DR.. W. C.. Hobby and
removed to Queens Hospital. ......
Inspector Farmer had accompanied
customs and quarantine officers to
the Saint Ronald, an arrival from
New York by the way of Panama
canal. He had completed the ascent
of Jacobs ladder and was about
to step to the deck when his foot
caught in round and he was thrown
to the metal plating -.
Dr.. Hobby placed Farmers injured
shoulder under an X-ray The ex-
animation revealed several broken
bones. The patient was reported this
afternoon resting easily 1t is ex-
pected that he will be laid up for
some time because of the accident.
The Saint Ronald met fine weather
in steaming from Panama to Homo
lulu. Thel vessel is believed to be
loaded with war material and NUM-
lions for the Russian government.
Captain E. Bennett declined to say
anything concerning the nature of the
cargo carried to the Orient in the YES
sci. The steamer is announced to
steam to vladivistok after it has been
supplied with about $50 tons of coal.
The freighter is credited with a
prompt despatch through the Pana-
ma canal. The vessel was not him
dered in the least in negotiating the
waterway. There had been no trou-
BILE or delay for some weeks.
The Saint Ronald will remain at
Honolulu a few hours taking fuel and
supplies. H.. -. H.. q, -. -. H..
At 1910 o'clock today the British
steamer St. Ronald cleared from Its
berth and sailed away from Honolulu.
At los o'clock Alexander Lindsay, Jr.
and w. B. Lymer,. as attorneys for
Farmer, filed in federal court libel
against the Vessel, its tackle, etc., and
the freight due for its cargo.
The libel asks that Farmer recover
from the vessel damages in the sun
of $4,000 for b broken right arm which
he suffered while aboard the ship
Farmer alleges that upon reaching the
rail of the ship there was gangway
running from the deck to the raj
which was insecurity and negligently
placed. D.
He further alleges that he stepped
upon the gangway, which Immediately
fell, throwing him violently, down upon
the deck below, fracturing his right
arm at the shoulder joint and break
ing the arm.
Shortly after the suit was filed il
was learned that the vessel had left
Honolulu. Information from the Gus
tom house was that at LOS o'clock II
was 10 miles at sea off BARRIERS Point
Had the vessel been within the three
mile limit the marshal would have
overtaken it in launch and served
the papers upon the captain.
The suit has been withdrawn as far
as the local federal court is concern.

The torch has been applied to the
ancient American frigate Omaha at
Bay View beach, near San Francisco.
The old war vessel which has been
doing duty in various roles in the vi

nothing but a pile Of ashes and metal

A movement to save the old frigate

Court Dwarfs.

Until about little more than a
century ago dwarfs we're frequently
kept as court toys. Records of them
might be multiplied almost indefi-
nitely.
Bebe, the dwarf of Stanislaus,
king of Poland, lived to be ninety
years Of age, dying in Paris in 1858,
and is variously described as having
measured thirty-fve inches and
twenty-three inches. Julia, niece of
Augustus, had two dwarfs, each
twenty eight inches in height, and
Henrietta Maria had two whose
joint height was seven feet two
inches. The Emperor Augustus had
a dwarf named Lucius, whose height
was two feet and weight seventeen
pounds. The last court dwarf in
England was Coppernin, who be-
longed to the Princess of Wales,
mother of George III.

An Irishman excused himself
from going to church by saying he
had such an excellent telescope that
with it he could bring the church
so near he could hear the organ
playing.
1t was Pat who observed, after
watching two men shoot at an eagle
and kill it, that they might have
saved the powder and shot, as the
fall alone would have killed the
bird.
And it was Pat again who, telling
a story as original and being in
formed by one of his auditors that
he had read it in the translation of
a Latin work, cried OUT "Confound

stealing ones good thoughts"

One Lesson Sufficient.

When Willie's father came home
to supper there was vacant chair
at the table.
"Well, where's the boy?"
civilian is upstairs in bed" The
answer came with painful precision
from the sad faced mother.
'Why, wh-what's up? Not sick,
is he?" Can anxious pause.)
ut grieves me to say, Robert,
that our son, your son, has been
heard swearing on the street. I
heard him."
Swearing? Scottl I'll teach
him to swear" And he started up
stairs in the dark. Halfway up he
stumbled and came down with his
chin on the top step.
When the atmosphere cleared
little Williams mother was saying
sweetly from the hallway: "That
will do, dear. You have given him
enough for one lesson"

WAGNER MADE IT HOT.
The Composers Resort When Money
and Fuel Were Scarce.

Here is an anecdote of Wagner's
early life as related by List: s'Wag-
ner, Bulow and ! were all quite
young when we lived together in
Leipzig and had good time
that is, L enjoyed myself, but Wag-
ner was already fermenting with his
political and philosophical ideas,
and our prosaic circumstances of
fered little ground for the idealists
of the future. We called Bulow
'Kritikus,' and we, especially l, al
ways feared his sharp tongue lit
tie. Of course all Of us had little
money, but Wagner put our slender
purse to great strains. He could
not bear money worries, and we let
him feel them as little as possible.
"Once, after IA long autumn, it
became cold suddenly, and Wagner
with his nerves suffered from the
sudden change in the temperature.
He demanded heated room at
once. For two whole days the de-
bate ragged between him and Bulow
as to the immediate purchase of
wood with our reduced purse.
81 was not asked, because Bulow
knew that ] would yield, but he
as treasurer contended that it was
ridiculous to buy wood in the month
Of September. But | am freezing
said Wagner in rage, to which the
Bulow suggested that he
90 out and get warm by running or
warm himself by his muse. Laugh
ng at his cheap, spiteful advice,
Bulow and went out, but when
we returned after two hours we
we're thunderstruck to find Wagner
n the room heated to suffocation.
He sat at his writing table deep in
lis work. His face was red.
" Where began Bulow, but the
words stuck in his throat, for
glance around the room showed |
lin how Wagner had helped him
'elf. Several chairs and our work
.ables lay on the floor, permanently |
crippled. Wagner had cut off their
egs and made the fire with them.

A Queer Election.

In ancient days, it has been aver
red, the people of Grimsby formed
an admirable notion of the wisdom
required for corporation honors.
The burgesses assembled at the
church and selected three of them
selves as candidates for the mayor
atty. The candidates were conduct
ed, with a bunch of hay tied to each
of their backs, to the common
pound, in which they were placed
blindfolded with a calf, and he
whose bunch Of hay was the first
eaten by the calf was thereupon de-
clared mayor for the ensuing year.

Methods of Elephants In Crossing
River With Steep Banks.

/
1t is a great sight to see line
of elephants crossing a river with
steep banks. They 60 down slowly,
I striking the ground with their
trunks before each step and never
making slip or miss, although
YOU feel every minute as II they
were going to take header into the
water. Then they wade or swim,
as the case may be, and they swim
beautifully, not hesitating to cross
half a mile Of deep water if need be.
| must say, however, that the
sensation Of sitting on the back of
a swimming elephant is the reverse
of pleasant You fancy yourself on
an enormous barrel which may roll
round at any moment and take you
under. Besides that, elephants swim
so low in the water that you are
sure of a wetting, which in India
means an excellent chance of fever.
Having crossed the stream, they
must climb to the top OF the bank,
and this is the most peculiar opera
ton of all. Down on their knees
they 20 and with trunk and tusks
dig out a foothold for themselves
and SO step by step work their way
to the top, their position being
sometimes like that of fly climb
ing up a wall. AS they reach the
top they give lurch sideways and
shoot one leg straight over the
bank, then give lurch to the other
side and shoot out the other leg in
the same way, which brings them
into the position of boy hanging
by his arms from the edge of roof.
Then they come to their knees and
finally, with great scrambling and
kicking of their hind legs, bring
themselves to level ground again.
In spite of these perilous ascents
and descents / never knew an ele-
ohant to miss his foothold, al

The Avesta.

In its present form the Avesta,
the old zoroastrian scripture, is
only fragment Of the original 10
roastrian scriptures. 1t is general
ly understood that those ancient
scriptures consisted of twenty odd
books of a million verses. The de-
struction Of the two original copies,
the one at Persepolis, the other at
Samarkand, is attributed to Alex
ander the Great. The Avesta, be-
ing only imperfect remnants of
these originals, is in compass equal
to about one-tenth of our Bible.

What. Wrong with Census?

Editor Times Republican: There is
something decidedly wrong in the
methods used in getting the population
of Marshalltown. When cities like Fort
Dodge and Mason City show much
greater population, and everything goes
to indicate they are no larger. either
they are stuffing the enrolment or Mar
shalltown is not getting her just dues.
Many years ago it was found that one
of these cities was using the names of
departed residents who had been en-
rolled in heaven long enough to become
naturalized, while Marshalltown
enumerator refused to take family Of
five because they had not been in the
state six months.
When Marshalltown has more manu-
factories, larger school census, more
voters, larger postal receipts, more
residences than either Of these cities
mentioned, with new families coming
in who find it difficult to secure places
to live, It seems hardly reasonable that
the other towns lave a greater popula-
ton.
In taking the United States census In
1910 in the Second ward. found it very
difficult at times to get all the members
OF q family. Some were working on
farms, some in cities far away. and
some had been away from home several
months. had almost to force the in
formation from them. From curiosity
I kept q record of the additional names
secured In this way and there were
nearly one hundred. It may be that
our enumerators are too timid. Respect
fully, George L. Sieg.

BATTLE DUMMIES TO-DAY.
Ansons Leave For Cedar Rapids Fol-
Series of Three Games.

Series Of Three Games.
Fifteen members OF the Arson squad
left this morning for Cedar Rapids,
where the local team will meet the
Dummies in a series Of three games,
opening today. The squad taken to
Cedar Rapids included Manager Rich
ards, Anderson, Cahill, Wright, T..
Ryan, M. Ryan, Martini, Chapel,
Hammerschmidt, Unger;fe Lehman,
Gruno Slattery, Richardson and Har-
ter. Guy Beard. who was taken to
the Deaconess hospital Friday morn
ing, suffering from an attack Of grip,
was not greatly improved today, and
it Is not probable that he will join the
team at Cedar Rapids.
The squad was given a most stren-
uous workout Friday, and the excep-
tionally warm April weather had the
effect of easing sore shoulders and
crippled arms. Improvement in the
work is noticeable daily, and the squad
goes to Cedar Rapids in good condi-
ton.
One Of the greatest improvements
noted is in the work Of Gruno, the Ell
gin pitcher, who had the ball breaking
right Friday and was able to fool his
mates during batting practice. Gruno
is most promising recruit and is re-
garded as q conner. His Elgin team
mate, Lehman, is also showing better
form, especially in his fielding. Gruno's
determination to find berth, his apti-
tude and his capacity for work has
made him popular with the fans.
Martini kept up his good stick work
Friday, and succeeded in sending the
pill over the center field fence during
the batting practice. Anderson, Chap
pei and Cahill are also hitting the ball
hard.
