Would Equip the
City For Dro,D,,ings

The payment of bills for about $40
by the city for rent Of boats and for
other items of expense necessary for
the search of the Euziere boy last fall.
led Councilman Ed T, Austin to pro-
pose at the council meeting this fore
noon that the city should be equipped
for drownings. Some of the bills al
lowed had never been paid by the old
administration, altho 1t was claimed
that the debts had been incurred by
Councilman w. e. Nicholson.
Councilman Austin suggested that
the city get equipment adapted for
searching for drowning bodies. such as
the police department of Des Moines
has. This equipment consists of
boat, mounted on a light two-wheel
truck. made to be quickly attached to
the rear of the police patrol. The boat
is equipped with hooks. grapples. rope
and oars and is kept at the police sta
ton ready for instant use. Being
mounted 1t can quickly be taken to the
river behind the patrol whenever
drowning is reported. Such equipment
would cost not more than $50 or s75.

PLANTER IN ACTION IN OIL
STOCK SALE LAWSUIT ON
i STAND FULL DAY.
TELLS HIS VERSION HOW
HE WAS FORCED TO BUY
Put in Fear and Awe Of Prosecution
Hubbard Testified, He Bought Val.
entins's Stock for $3.50 and Raised
the Money on Notes-Makss Admis.
sions Regarding Negotiations.

It was a confession Of submission to
alleged financial buccaneers and sur
render to gentlemanly Strong arm
men that Ross w. Hubbard, a former
OFFICER of the now defunct Consumers
Oil Company, told Judge Willett in the
district court today and Tuesday. Hub
bard was the first witness called to the
stand in his suit against his former
business associate, r. c. Valentine, the
latter's father, E. E. Valentine, of Web
ster City, and Wesley Martin, also OF
Webster City. 1000
Hubbard is suing to recover $6,63u
he alleges he paid r. G. Valentine tol
663 shares of Consumers Oil Company
stock under duress and threats OF
prosecution under which Hubbard, 70
paraphrase his own testimony, stood IN
great fear.
Tells History Of Sale.
Hubbard was on the witness stano
part of the forenoon and all OF the
afternoon Tuesday. and a good snare
of today. Under the direct examination
of E. N. Farber, one of his attorneys
the witness told his version of what ne
alleges was his fleeing by R. c. VAL
entine, aided by Valentines father and
Martin.
Standing out prominently in his
testimony was his statement that ne
surrendered without a fight when val
entine threatened to prosecute him un-
less he bought out Valentine.
Altho testifying that the Consumers
Oil Company stock was worth moth
ing at the time he was forced to buy,
on cross examination Hubbard ad-
mitted that he sold $1,000 worth of it to
his friend, w. H. Steiner, very soon
after Valentine sold to Hubbard.
Equally important to the defense was
the admission wrung from Hubbard in
the cross examination Of c. H. E.
Boardman that Hubbard had diverted
to his own credit $1.400 of the oil com
pany's funds. Hubbard, however.
stoutly maintained that this money re-
paid him for funds he had advanced
for the company from his private &C.
count,
Buy or Go to Jail.
According to Hubbard's testimony r.
C. Valentine put up to him the alter
native OF buying him out or going "a

looked like II was trying to get my
money out Of the business. told him
that was not true, and he said any
way he had something on me and he
was going to make it public if didn't

Hubbard persisted in his cross ex-
animation that Valentine complained
only Of Hubbard's account being over
drawn, and Of Hubbard having misap-
propriated funds Of the company.
The witness was shown checks Of the
Consumers Oil Company, which r. c.
Valentine had left signed but blank
with Hubbard. These checks had been
filled out for various amounts up to

$515. totaling about $4,000. and had
been made payable some to the First
National Bank and some to the Mar-
shalltown State Bank.
Was Awed by Fear.
Hubbard testified to holding great
fear that Valentine would prosecute
him IL he did not agree to buy valen-
tines stock. 1t was all during the one
conversation, Hubbard testified, that
Valentine told him that his father. e.
E. Valentine, and Wesley Martin were
on their way to the city and would get
here at lis. It was then about noon.
the witness said.
On direct examination he had testi-
fed that he had been restrained, If not
by actual force at least by superior will
power to remain in the office until the
elder Valentine and Martin arrived.
On cross examination this force or
influence was shown to be mostly the
presence OF r. c. Valentine, whom the
witness admitted interposed no bar
rier between Hubbard and the outside.
Sale Finally Agreed To.
1t was after Z. E., Valentine and
Martin had arrived, and In their pres
ence and under their influence and the
influence and pressure brought to bear
by r. C. Valentine. Hubbard testified
that he finally consented to buy. Mar
tin, Hubbard testified. had added his
weight of influence to the pressure be-
ing brought to bear by giving it-as his
legal opinion during the conference
that Hubbard had been guilty of a
serious crime in the way he had
handled checks of the corporation.
Finally, the sale being agreed to,
Hubbard set out at once thac afternoon
to raise the money. He Gid raise
$4,000, he said, on his own and Mrs.
Hubbard's joint note. He paid the
amount in cash to Valentine, he said,
and that night he obtained note for
$3.50 on his own security and that of
his mother in law, Mrs. Culver.
The promissory note was turned
over to r. c. Valentine the following
morning, Hubbard testified. Hubbard
said the notes were paid and taken
up later.
Sold Stock; Company Inso|vent.
Hubbard had testified in direct ex-
animation that the Consumers OIL
Company was insolvent, and that its
assets had been dissipated a. the time
Valentine was trying to force him to
buy.
Regarding the sale of $1,000 worth Of
the stock to Steiner, Hubbard was
asked in cross examination:
$50 you knew when You sold the
stock to w. H. Steiner that the stock
was in an insolvent company"
81 did," he answered.
Hubbard persistently- denied that
what Valentine complained most about
was that Hubbard had taken checks
signed in blank by Valentine issued
them in favor of local banks. and put
the money in his private account.
These were the same checks to which
Hubbards attention had been called as
having been made payable to the First
National and Marshalltown State
Banks of this city.

RELEASED WRONG PRISONER.

Thru a clerical error, the authorities
of the penitentiary at Kingston, Ont,
have released from custody Thomas NJ.
Riley, serving a term for manslaughter
on a pardon intended for Thomas Riley,
also serving time for manslaughter.
The mistake was discovered when
clergyman at London, Ont, received
letter from the freed Riley, now living
in Everton, Mo-, thanking him for his
efforts to obtain the pardon.
Tho surprised clergyman had made
no efforts to obtain Riley's release, and
started an inquiry which revealed that
the pardon was for Thomas Riley, serv-
ing a seven-year term for killing his
wife at Hamilton, Ont. and was
granted on the ground of Riley's III

October 9.-Harriet Hosmer.

| Ohe OF the most successful of all Amer
icah scuiptors was a woman Harriet
i1osmer, Who was born October 3. 1881.
IN Watertown. Mass. She was the
daughter OF physician. and as a child
she was extremely delicate, having in
herited something of the fratlty of her
mother. who died Of consumption when
harriet was small child. But Harriet's
lather knew that this constitutional
dellcacy could be overcome. and from
hef babyhood he accustomed her to out

spent her timS rowing. riding driving.

spend on the usual indoor occupations OF
girls. The result of this life was that by
the time she had reached womanhood sne
was without her peer in the neighbor-
hood for general health and ruggedness.
Her work as sculptor began when
she was little girl. In her outdoor life
she would gather all sorts of snakes.
insects and small animals from the
woods and fields and take them to a clay
pit in her fathers garden. where she
would study their habits and model them
in clay. Her first school instructor was
Mr.. Peabody. brother of the wife of
Nathaniel Hawthorne. and in spite OF
this good mans powers as an educator
he gave the tomboy up in despair being
unable to tame her wild spirits. She was
sent to boarding school. however.
where she received the best possible edu-
cation.
Harriet Hosmer was early convinced
that she wanted to become a sculptor
and her first problem was to secure the
proper preparation in anatomy. Refused

ASBESTOS COOKING.

The asbestos pad saves many an
anxious moment to the woman who
knows how to use it. For it solves
the problem of cooking things by gas
heat ithout burning them.
One of the objections TO gas stoves
practically the only objection-is
/ that the heat is SO intense that it
/ burns things. things cooked in the
oven and things cooked on top of
, The stove. But use ar asbestos pad
-and there is no more burning.
Have pads in little metal frames
these can be bought for five or ten
ceats-or cut up a big sheet # asbe>-
tos into suitable shapes and sizes.
Then learn to use them.
Always place a sheet of asbestos
under a cake. loaf or layer. If there
is any tendency to burn on the bot
tom in your oven.
Place a pad under potatoes to be
baked. cover them with an inverted
pan. and they will be baked to per-
fection. Potatoes baked in this way
should be frequently turned. Sweet
potatoes. especially. that often burn
before they are cooked through. can
be well baked with the help of an
asbestos pad.
Baked apples, too. are better baked
slowly with an electric pad under
them than rapidly baked. and some
times burned. fiat on the oven floor.
one good way to bake them is to
pare them. add little salt and stick
cinnamon in the core cavities and
plenty of sugar Put a bit of butter
on each and then add just enough
water to keep the APPLES from burn
ing. Place the dish holding the ap-
pies. covered. on the asbestos pad and
bake slowly. Or else prepare the 4p-
Piles with a little salt and cinnamon
sprinkled over them, pour a little
sugar and water syrup around them.
and haste from time TO time while
they are baking. uncovered.
Use the asbestos pads on the top
Of the stove. too. One good thing to
cook with an asbestos on the top of
the stove is bannocks. Make plain bak-
ing powder biscuit dough and cut into
rounds Put in buttered skillet and
cook over asbestos turning them often
until they are Drowned and brough-
" cooked. Their flavor is quite diff
ferent from that of baking powder
biscuits cooked in the oven.
