Rich reqsioed consciousness
Tuesday morning and WAS seen
by . Star reporter. who visited
his bedside. Between Qasps, he
told The Star man his name.
He was reticent concerning the
shooting, acting as though he
had no knowledge OF the crime
he had committed.
"a no talk now" said the wop
TO The Star man. TOO sick.
Come back tomorrow"
But the doctors at the hos
pltai say the wop will not live
that long.
Three months ago there was a
railroad accident near Garrison
Mont. Imam Rich. the wop. who had
been one of thousand wops EN-
ployed I'm construction camp. was
crushed and MANNED. After that
he went about with a cork leg.
The power 10 earn was gone. He
sought recompense of the railroad
But he spoke no English The In
tricaeies OF the law puzzled him
The red tape OF railroad claim de
partments reused his anger and
suspicion.
They we're trying to cheat him.
So he reasoned. He didn't know
whom to trust. So he distrusted
every one. II society was against
him. well. he would be against so
ciety. So be it.
He brooded on his wrongs and
went insane with anger.
At 2:30 yesterday afternoon the
wop entered the office of A. NJ.
Lee, claim agent OF the Northern
Pacific. Second ay. and King St,
and was told by Dryden, Lees
clerk. that the claim agent was in
Tacoma and probably would not re.
turn until night
Il win sit down here" said the
wop. doggedly.
He went away after a little. re.
turning in an hour. He again
asked for Lee. and was told by
Miss Vera Lockhart. the stenogra.
pher. who occupied the office with
Dryden. that Lee was still absent.
Rich asked Dryden for 90 cents
to buy something to eat. Dryden
refused. Mumbling, Rich sat down
in the corridor.
For some minutes the office was
still. save for the clicking of the
typewriter. Then
Please" said the wop at the
counter. II am hungry"
Dryden went toward him. II may
be he resented these Interruptions
of the office routine. Or It may be
his heart was touched Miss Lock
hart says Drydens hand went to-
ward his poeket-she believes for
money to give to the wop.
II may be the wop misunderstood
that hipward gesture.
The wop whipped out his gun and
fired-twice. Dryden fell dead.
The typewriter halted at the
shots In the middle of word. and
Miss Lockhart fled. screaming. into
a small room adjoining. Three
bullets crashed through the door as
she slammed II shut.
She dashed her bare fists
through the glass of the window,
and called for help. No one hear

a money order order to renew for the
paper another year. / am pleased to
know that you are the new postmaster
at Cresco, the appointee of our good
President Woodrow Wilson. ! am still
very much interested in Cresco and
Howard county. Were l back there
now would find many new residents
and would miss many old ones, but the
local columns of your paper tell of some
Of the old friends knew years ago.
Since leaving Cresco have lived in
several states, the latest Of which is
Florida, but Iowa leads them all in soil
and wealth. This part of Floridais
quite new but is being developed by
new settlers from the north. Good
roads are being made and surfaced with
mari or shell. Pineapple culture is one
of the paying industries. Oranges and
grape fruit were very cheap here this
last winter. We live one-half mile
from Lee Branch station which is
miles from Punta Gorda. We can GO
by train before noon and come back by
5p. m. In Charlotte Harbor at Punta
Gorda is a great place to catch fish and
several car loads of fish are shipped
from there every week in the season.
saw one big fish that was caught
there that weighed 275 pounds. Water

friends. Will close this letter with
best wishes for everybody.

TO CALIFORNIA; FAIRS
Take the Superb No-Extra Fare Pacific
Limited
Through Weekly Tourist Car Service

Your enjoyment on your trip to Cali
fornia this summer will be much greater
if your train affords you every con-
venience and comfort enroute.
The ideal train to California is ''The
Pacific Limited" of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul Railway. This
famous ''train of double destination"
goes direct and through without change
of cars to both San Francisco and
Los Angeles.
1t arrives at both California termini
in the morning. This is much apprec-
lated advantage, for with hotels likely
to be crowded, it is desirable to have
all day for getting located.
Every Tuesday through tourist
sleeping car to Los Angeles is operated
from this town connecting at Marion
with ''The Pacific Limited" providing
service also to Denver, San Francisco,
Portland and points intermediate.
The fares are SO unusually low this
year that you will surely want to take
full advantage of them. BY adding a
little to the direct round trip cost you
can see the wonderful Pacific North
Coast and return through the vast
mountain wonderland pierced by the
Milwaukee," picturesque Trail of
The Olympian. This route affords you
greater extent of beautiful and varied
scenery viewed from the train than any
other road on the continent.
For information about fares, time of
trains, sleeping car reservations and for
descriptive western literature, apply to
local agent of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul Railway.

State Free Employment Bureau

Des MONIES, Ia, July IA, 1915. The
T,,;rtv-sixth General Assembly of Iowa
nrovided for the State Free Employ
oent Bureau to be operated in con-
nection with the Bureau of Labor Sta
+;st;cs This law became effective July
9TH and the Bureau is now ready TO re.
ceive applications from employers OF
oil classes who are in need of help, and
of all nersons of either sex who want a
iob. Service is free to all. Appilca-
lions must be directed to the State
Free Employment Bureau, state oapi
-, Des Moines, Iowa, and can pc
made by mail, telephone, or IN person
~ TAT East Locust street. Employers
should give full name and address OF
individual or firm; to whom, when and
where the help wanted should apply
the nature of the employment, wages
hours of labor, probable length OF en-
nlovment and such other information
needed to find the worker fitted for the
particular job.
Those seeking jobs should give name
and address, or telephone, work de-
sired, second choice of work, age, ma
tionality, single or married, wages ex-
perience and such other information
that may help in finding suitable 1oD.
It will be the effort of the Bureau TO
bring together farmers, manufacturers,
storekeepers, proprietors OF hotels ana
restaurants, those in need OF off1ce
help or domestics, ETC., with the un-
employed qualified for the job.
Whenever there is an untitled JOB
there is economic waste; whenever
there is an able bodiedid idle person there
is economic waste; when the two fail
to get together, the waste is double.
Through this Bureau the state aims to
prevent waste. To get results en-
ployers and employees must cooperate.
The State Free Employment Bureau
will make every effort to do its part

Trouble Brewing for haugen.

''T. A. Potter, who was elected may
