is little more than forty miles

towns, but chiefly known as pas

produce an abundance Of grain and
hops. while the smaller holdings
grow great quantities OF the fancy

Among the important towns in the

FOR IMAGINARY ILLS

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, July 9.-Toledo, with Its
golden rule mayor, Jones, in its day
has nothing on Mason City with its
white wings mayor, 4. A. Potter. Mayor
Potter is something Of philosopher,
and after month of presiding over po-
lice court, has reasoned that work Is a
sure cure for lot Of imaginary Ills.
When a man is busy he generally keeps
out of trouble, and when a man finds
that he must work for himself and
family either voluntarily or tnvolun-
tarily, he soon joins the volunteers.
That is the basis of the squad of
white wings that adorns Colonel Pot
ter's municipal street department, and
the habituals who renew their acquafn-
lance with the mayor as police judge
are mustered into the ranks at once,
and single enlistment into the army
generally has the desired effect. Under
Mayor Potter's new military rules all
fines are paid-either in money or
work. If the man has the money, and
the family will be the ones to suffer
by his paying his fine, the mayor
makes Jail sentence and puts the man
to work All long time and short-time
prisoners are put in white suits and
put on the streets, either to help the
regular street force. or set to cleaning
up alleys, vacant lots, and unkempt
yards, etc. This work is charged to
the property owners. who heretofore
have been indifferent to the clean up"
orders, and they are compelled to come
across when they pay their taxes, so
two much needed accomplishments are
recorded--the compulsory renovation Of
unkempt lots and alleys in the heart
of the city, at the expense of the own
ers, generally men Of means, and re-
lieving the city of the burden of feed
ing prisoners at the expense Of the tax
payers.
Colonel Potter is member Of the
Tourist Union of Hoboes No. ST."
which was immortalized at the national
convention at Britt a number of years
ago, in all the humorous literature OF
thatsday, but he is no respector of per-
sons, and the hobo who drifts into the

BABE BROWNS in CREEK.
Buggy Topples From Bridge and Man
and Woman Have Marrow Escape.

Hawarden, July s.-The 1Omonth-
old child of Mrs. Helen Coberly, Of
Tulsa, Mo-, was drowned in flooded
creek west of Hawarden yesterday.
Mrs. Coberly and her father, H. NJ.
Angle, whom she is visiting, escaped
with their lives. but only after several
hours work by physicians were they
resuscitated.
Mr.. Angle, Mrs. Coberly and the
baby were driving. They came to Jim
Green creek. which had risen high out
of its banks as the result of the heavy
rain of the night before. The horse
had crossed the bridge but piece Of
washed out ground in the roadway
gave way and the vehicle toppled into
the creek.
Mr.. Angle battled with the waters
for q long time before he finally sue
ceeded in getting his daughter to the
shore, where he lost consciousness.

Mayor Potter has appointed George
