MODERN REST CURE.
Local Man Applies Doctors Advice
In Original Way.

Not long ago little, weakened
sort of man dropped into one OF our
stores and sat down with sigh. One
of the clerks approached him and
inquired if there was anything he
could do for him. The man said
that he did not want anything, and
added that he just stepped in to rest.
A few minutes later the proprie-
tor stepped up to the man and ask
ed the same question as had his en-
ployee. The sickly one informed
him that he did not come in to pur-
chase, and added: "Sir, you see, it
is like this; my physician has in
structed me that | must avoid work
and seek places where it is quiet.
Noticing that you did not advertise,
l naturally came to the conclusion
that this store would be the ideal
place for me to come and rest, and
not be disturbed"

in William Wright's pasture, near

which the frightened animals ran
when the storm broke-many of the
dead creatures having stuck their
heads thru the fence ere the bolt
struck. The owners of the cattle
destroyed were Pemberton and Bye,
ten head; Harvey Hansen, six head;
Clyde Hampton and Will Enlow,
three each; and Walter Enlow and
l.. r. Hoffman, two and one, respec-

RATHER IN CLOTHES CLOSET.
Recent Accident at KeOkuk May
Clear up Old Mystery.

Keokuk, Ia, June 21.-A rattle
snake mystery which has baffled five
local doctors for three years may DE
cleared up. In view of something
which happened couple of days
ago, the doctors are wondering IL
the circumstance which puzzled them
years ago may not have resulted from
a similar cause.
A woman was looking for bed
covering or clothing in closet in
her home when she felt something
sting her on the hand. She paid
little attention TO it until the wound
began to swell A doctor was called,
and cauterized the wound first. He
thought a bee or wasp might have
stung the woman. Later herr arm
sweIled and it was necessary to give
further treatment.
Investigation of the closet dis
closed a young rattlesnake with one
rattle in the closet. The snake was
dispatched at once.

ROBBERS AT CHARLES CITY.
Nothing Lacking But Creepy Music
in MelOdramatic HOldup.

Charles City, Ia, June 1.-Two
sashbuckling bandits with black
masks and armed with revolvers en-
tered the Beach pool hall and barber
shop near the Illinois Central station
at midnight. Seven men were play
ing pool and the bandits after firing
several shots at the ceiling ordered
the men to line up and throw up
their hands.
Osmer Vogel, in charge of the
pool hall at the time, refused to do
SO, but soon found that discretion
was the better part of valor. While
one of the bandits covered the men
with a gun, the other went through
their pockets Walter Burton, a
mail carrier, was lucky in having q
number of bills in a pocket into
which the robber did not go down
deep enough to discover them. An
other had transferred his watch to
one of the pockets in the pool table.
SO saved it, The others were robbed
of what money they had and then
the cash register was gone through.
In all between $25 and $50 was OBJ
tanned.
The men were then told they
would be shot if they attempted to
follow them, and the bandits backed
lout of the door.
Telephone messages were soon sent
out to the police The sheriff soon
arrived and efforts were made the
remainder of the night to track the
robbers. The bloodhounds were
sent up from Waterloo and are now
in the scent in the direction of Ionia.
Earlier in the evening the Illinois
Central freight station and three or
four box cars were entered by rob
bers but very little was obtained by
them. 1t was presumably done BY
the same bandits who robbed the
Beach pool hall

TRIAL OF BOOTLEGGERS.
Dispute Arises Over Authority of
Mason City Mayor.

Mason City, Ia, June 21.-Can the
mayor hear bootlegging cases and at
tach penalties? That is just now
the question. City Attorney Breese
thinks that there is an ordinance
that admits of it, but there are other
attorneys who hold differently. They
hold that it is an inditable offense
and are cases for the grand jury and
district court. Mayor Potter has
heard the evidence in one such case,
found the party guilty, and attach
ed a fine of $50. In this way the
fine all goes into the Golfers of the
CITY. while if before justice or the
district court, the fine goes into the
county.

FINDS PIPE OLD HONEY.
MarshaIltOwn Man Discovers Thirty
Pounds i'm Attic of His
Home.

John Twigg, a carpenter, living
at Marshalltown, repapered his
house recently and he was inspecting
the job. In one of the rooms he dis
covered a discoloration on the ceiling
which had spoiled his new paper.
Twigg investigated by going up In
the attic and saving a piece out of
the flooring. He found the cause of
the discoloration and also discovered
decidedly unusual situation. There
between the flooring and the side
wall, where the joists joined, he dis
covered thirty pounds of honey, some
what discolored by age, but neyerthe-
less perfectly good. There were no
signs of bees, however. Twigg over
looked the damage to the wall paper,
used some of the honey himself and
gave some to his neighbors. Then
he delved back into the past.
He discovered that Frank Nichol-
son, who built the house, had fifteen
years ago discovered a bees nest In
this same place in the attic. Nichol-
son took out what he had supposed
was all the honey and got rid Of the
bees. But a quantity of the honey
had been left, and in time the weight
of the honey as it became old and
broke the cells of the comb,
causing it to seep thru onto Twigg's
wall paper.
