opportunity and enjoyed themselves
at this popular winter past time. The
ice is in good condition and the

warming room has been built, thus
making everything as comfortable as
can be desired by the skaters. To
the young men, who have taken an
active interest in securing this rink
and to those who have worked both
day and night in getting everything
in first class condition for skating,
the skaters Of the city owe a debt Of

Now that the rink is all ready for
enjoyment, it might be well if the
young men Of the city could get to-

We feel sure that Warren has some
excellent material for such a team
and if they would be given the pro-
per coaching, chances are that they
would be able to develop a strong
club. Several towns in this vicinity
have organized teams and have writ

Andrew Carnegie says that the
true secret of success is doing some

things better when you have been
trained. North Star College offers
you this training.
The fourth number on the Warren
Lecture Course comes off January IL.
The Robley Male Quartet, masters
Of Harmony, will then appear. This
musical entertainment promises to be
a treat from start to finish as this
organization Of musicians is receiving
great praise wherever they appear.
When you enroll at North Star
College you will be absolutely sure
OF getting the kind Of training that
will develop your ability to the high
est point.
We prepare young men and women
to get the most out of lfe-to make
the most Of their opportunities.
Today a knowledge of accounts is
essential to business success and
proficiency in shorthand and type
writing is the surest passport to
swift advancement.
Good wholesome food is given right
at the college for only s2.75 week.
This is a remarkably low figure when
you consider the high cost Of living.
We have yet to hear of a single COM

It is well to bear in mind that the
tuition charged at North Star College
is lower and considerably lower than
at most reputable schools. Why then
go to another school to expend more
money than is absolutely necessary?
Our school is accredited. Educators
have looked into our courses and
found them complete. Not long ago
we had the occasion to compare our
shorthand and typewriting course
with that Of another institution The
principal of said institution said this:
I'VE do not offer as thoro course as
you do.' This is surely recommen-
dation that is worth something.

SERIOUS EPIDEMIC
THREATENS HORSES
Pink Eye Has Broken Out Here and
In This Vicinity and is Believed
to be Due to Infection From
Army Horses.
GIVE SEVERAL REASONS
Sick. Horses From British Army
Camps Returned and Cars Not
NJ Properly Fumisated, sus-
eested by Local Men.
GIVE SEVERAL REASONS

A serious epidemic Of pink-eye has
broken out among the horses in
Keokuk and in this section Of the
state. That one cause for the prev
alance of the disease at this time is
the shipment of sick horses from
camps in the south, where animals
are being bought for the British gov
eminent, is the belief of some Of
the horsemen in Keokuk. Horses are
found to be sick in these camps, To-
cal dealers declare, and are shipped
back here and turned into stables or
pastures, and naturally infect the
other animals.
Another cause is said to be the
using of stock cars which have not
been properly fumigated One man
here purchased a fine animal recent
ly. 1t was shipped here in stock
car, and developed pink eye shortly.
The horse fell off in weight from l.
COO pounds to 1900 pounds, not eat
ing anything for ten days. The only
reason that could be assigned for
back in car that was not properly
fumigated.
That there is careless inspection or
something wrong at these places
where the cars are unloaded is the
belief of the local horse dealers. One
of the local men stated that some
horses were shipped through here
from the camp in the south, recently,
and the animals were too sick to
stand up. They were said 10 be con-
signed to a point in Iowa.
Another dealer here had an entire
herd Of animals in pasture become
infected, when some animals were re-
turned from these Lorse camps Of the
British army.
There was f.tal epidemic Of pink
eye here several years ago. Steps
probably will be taken to prevent
any further Infection of : animals
around here If possible.

Now there is talk of an interurban
line being built through Nauvoo aSain
and that eastern capital is behind the
scheme. Nauvoo has welcomed so
many of them in the past year that 1t
will do no harm to receive this one
with open arms and allow it to slide
along the rails and electric wires
through this beautiful city. Just now
in grape shipping time an interurban
line would be of great convenience
and kept busy moving this luscious
crop to the north. west and southern
markets. Nauvoo will be a very busy
town for the next four or six weeks.

DUNKARDS ACCUSED
OF GIRL MURDER
Fiendish Crime Of Last Fall 10 Laid
at Door Of Former Minister
and His Son.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servicel
SOUTH BEND, Ind, Aug. 13.-An
old canvas telescope bag which had
been abandoned with other rubbish
when Ellis NJ. Ebersole and his son
Newton, 20, moved from their home
near here, was exhibited today as
the chief evidence to connect the two
with the fiendish murder of Hazel
Macklin, eleven months ago The
father was a Dunkard minister for
merly. .
The fifteen year old girls body
was found in vault in Island park,
near here, October %, 1914 She had
disappeared a month before. The girl
had been strangled to death 1t was
learned she had inserted an adver.
tisement seeking work as a domestic.
Before leaving the home Of relatives,
she said a man had telephoned her to
meet him and that he would be wear
ing Dunkard's dress. The girl was
apparently assaulted and then
strangled.
The Dunkard minister is held under
the belief that he shielded his son.
Newton has been in trouble With 9th.
er girls. but always has managed to
prevent arrest, the police said.
They were arrested last night on
farm near Bristol. Elkhart county.
The unexplained feature is that the
Ebersoles, If guilty, should have left
behind them the bag which the police
searched for SO thoroughly, after the
body was found
Hazel lived with her uncle and
aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Miller.
They did not report her disappear
ance. The search was started at the
