CHAPTER |.

Old Cadman Green knew everybody in town. Those whom he did not know were not. in his opinion, worth knowing: and his friends agreed with him before his face Behind his back they voted him an amusing old bore But it was the thing to think as Cad man Green thought. for he had the tradition of distinction, acquired through blur and brass. perhaps. but held tenaciously and acknowledged.
 Green was maintaining his reputa- ton in the same way as that in which he had acquired it.
 You see that woman in the car riage?" he inquired. Second Mrs. Percevale. Artists model before Per cevale married her, and had a little scandal all her own Tn the home town We'll. she's-hello,"
 This time Cadman Green contended himself with a whistle. and. as he whistled, most of his friends whistled too.
 William Wright with his pretty stenographer," said the old man.
 The person in question. seated in his automobile beside a decidedly pret- ty young woman. passed under the club windows. and the car. after speed ing short way farther. turned off in the direction of a respectable but modest suburb
 What do you think of that?" de- manded Green Wright and a lady friend. and seeing her home through the town in broad daylight. And I five underneath him"
 He burst into a chuckle and slapped his fat leg. while the others exchanged smiles and mods.
 Their servant told our gir, that Mrs Wright is internally Jealous of her husband" continued Green. T wonder-I wonder what she would say if she could see that?"
 He glanced about him He had kept up his reputation among his peers Now the news must be spread It was too good to retain. Green did not wish Wright any harm. but he felt that the joke was on him. and he wanted Mrs Green to agree with him
 By the time he reached the apart ment house he was bursting with the news Dinner was ready. and he held 1t only through the soup. indulging in the joys of anticipation until he could bear them no longer
 T saw an interesting sight today" he said. with an affectation Of casual ness
 What was that. Cadman?' inquired his wife
 '-OnIy our friend upstairs. Willie Wright. speeding through the town in ms new auto. with his pretty steAog- rapher Right under our club win dows. Lizzie. and then out toward Dotsboro You don't happen to know if the woman lives in Dotsboro. do you?"
 For goodness sake. Cadman, how should know? Do you suppose have time to inquire the residence of Mfr Wright's stenographer7"
 "Weli. guess it's Dotsboro all right" said Cadman Green
 The maid. who was waiting for him Go take his arms on the table before setting down the roast listened with an air of judicial impassivity. The Greens knew that their girl was a model of discretion. and did not hesi- tate to discuss anything in front of her. And. until the meal was ended, Margaret maintained her own reputa- tion.
 When the Greens were ensconced tn l their living room Margaret gathered | the pile of dishes near the kitchen afnk and shut all the connecting doors

Old MT. Batch-What are you wor- rying about?
 Young MT. Nubride-A little ques- tion that came up at home. My wife wants to know if I'd marry again in case of her death. and if say "cer- tainly not" she'll think I'm longing for she'll think l have her successor picked out.

INSPECT TABOR SHORT LINE.
Railroad Commissioners Investigate
Road at Patrons Request.

''Soa at nSQuSSts
Special to Times Republican.
Ia Dor. Nov. 1.-Two members Of the
Iowa board of railroad commissioners,
Messrs Wilson and Guyer, accom-
panied by an attorney for the board
made this city visit and inspected the
Tabor & Northern railroad in response
to demand from citizens of the city
and shippers. The members of the
board made a leisurely taken trip over
the line in special train provided by
President McClelland. of the Tabor &
Northern Railroad Company. of which
he is the company. for the convenience
of the state officials. Several citizens
of Tabor who are interested in secur-
ing betterments, were also members of
the party.
From remarks dropped by the two
officials an inference was gained that
they considered the railroad fairly well
managed altho observing few things
that require attention, and their re-
port will be awaited with eaeerness.
The Tabor & Northern railroad has
very close traffic connections with the
burlington route. 1t is one Of the very
few short lines of independent Iowa
railroads to make money or even keep
going. 1t Is popularity supposed that
Mr. McClelland makes a million, more
or less, each year out OF the road
which he devotes to his pet charity. the
Methods, hospital in Omaha.
The belief became current while the
members of the railroad commission
were on their tour. that the request OF
the shippers for lower rates on live
stock to South Omaha, will not be
given a hearing.

Washington, Nov. 11.-'Iowa repub
licans are in earnest in supporting
Senator Cummins for the presidency"
said former Congressman S. F. Prouty,
who Is here on a supreme A'urt case
They will not only back him for the
omination but will make an agrees
sive fight. It Is my belief that in the
last analysis this contest will center
about few strong candidates and
that Senator Cummins will be one OF
them, and that he stands an excellent
chance to be nominated
"A fight will be made to carry Min
nesota for Cummins. 1t is my opinion
he will carry that state. Not only
that but look to see him carry other
early primary states in the middle
west. I believe he will get in addition
TO Iowa and Minnesota. the Dakotas.
Nebraska. Kansas Missouri, Colorado.
perhaps Utah and considerable other
strength"
Judge Prouty talked with various
republicans while here.
Judge Prouty believes the republican
nomination will in all likelihood go to
man west of the Alleghenies He
does not believe either Root or Weeks
can be nominated.
Judge Prouty said tonight ne has no
desire to get back into the congress-

MURDER OF HOWARD JONES
Writes to Governor Clarke Saying He

Would Be Sent to Native Land
Guidiee Awaiting Second Trial at
Red Oak For Brutal Crime.

Council Bluffs Nov. 11.-Francesco
Guidice once convicted of the murder
of Howard Jones, Northwestern fire.
man. late at night in May, 1912, and
now held in the Montgomery county
Jail awaiting his second trial On the
murder charge, has written Governor
George w. Clarke, asking that he be
deported from this country and given
a chance to fight in the armies of his
native Italy.
Guidice in his letter to the governor,
written from the Red Oak jail, told him
that he was not naturalized as an
American citizen, and that he felt he
should be sent home to Italy, where he
could fight the battles of his native
land
Howard Jones was murdered as he
left the Northwestern roundhouse late
on the night of May q, 1912, and Gui-
dice was arrested the next morning.
There were many circumstances tend
ing to connect him with the crime. and
a mob was formed which visited the
county Jail here on the night OF May
%. but rumors of the impending mob
action had reached the ears of the Of
hcers, and Guidice had been spirited
away before it arrived.
Baked at getting the Italian, the
mob marched up and down Pearl street
and Broadway. wrecking every store or
business house operated by an Italian
or Greek. and doing damage esti-
mated at considerably more than $1,000
before the fury of the mob was spent
and its members dispersed.
Guidice and his attorneys took q
change Of venue from Pottawattamie
county to Mills, and his frs, trial was
held there. as will be his second. He
was convicted and sentenced to life i'm
prisonment, but the supreme court on
appeal. after lengthy consideration,
granted the Italian new trial be-
cause of some errors by counsel and
others at the initial hearing.
His second trial was originally set for
the term OF court now in progress at
Genwood, but recently by agreement Of
attorneys on both sides, the case was
continued over until next term.

HOPES EVERY MAN AND WOMAN
ADOPTS THIS SPLENDID
MORNING HABIT.

Why is man and woman, half the
time, feeling nervous, Respondent, wor-
ri some days headachy, dull and un-
strung; some days really incapacitated
by illness.
II we would practice the drinking OF
phosphated hot water before breakfast,
what a gratifying change would take
place. Instead of thousands of half
sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty.
muddy compilations, we would see
crowds of happy, healthy. rosy checked
people everywhere. The reason is that
tn, human system does not rid itself
each day of all the waste which it &C
cumultes under our present mode Of
living. For every ounce of food and
drink taken into the system nearly an
ounce of waste material must be car
ried out, else it ferments and forms pto-
main like poiSons in the bowels which
are absorbed into the blood.
Just as necessary as it Is to clean the
ashes from the furnace each day, be-
fore the fire will burn bright and hot,
so we must each morning clear the in
side organs Of the previous days ac-
cumulation Of indigestible waste and
body toxins. Men and women. whether
sick or well, are advised to drink each
morning, before breakfast, a glass Of
real hot water with a teaspoonful Of
limestone phosphate in 1t, as harmless
means Of washing out Of the stomach,
liver, kodneys and bowels the indieest-
ible material, waste. sour bile and tox-
ms: thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary canal
before putting more food into the stom-
ach.
Millions Of people who had their turn
at constipation, bilious attacks, acid
stomach. nervous days and sleepless
nights have become real cranks about
the morning inside-batn. a quarter
pound Of limestone phosphate will not
cost much at the drug store, but is suf-
ficient to demonstrate to anyone its
cleansing. sweetening and freshening
effect upon the system.
