BROTHERS live
ALONE IN WOODS
SOMEWHERE IN IOWA" NEAR
MISSOURI LINE THEY FISH
AND HUNT. o."

Hamburg, March 22.-Somewhere In
Iowa, not far from the Missouri base
line in the hills east of Hamburg, two
brothers have their home in dug out
and exc out an existence trapping,
hunting and fishing. For obvious rea.
sons their surname Is deleted. They
are known as "BilP' and "Jim."
On the sunny side Of hill about a
block from the Missouri border in q
dug out, partly lean-to shack, these
two pals and their six hound dogs
have spent the greater portion of their
lives. Neither can read nor write and
beyond a common knowledge that the
sun rises and sets, the change of sea-
sons, they know little of worldly at
fairs; but they both are experts with
the rifle, hook and fiddle. 49,.
Their almost complete isolation
from mankind brings them much clos
er to nature. They are accustomed to
the silence and the woods; the music
Of singing birds, wild flowers and the
dogs are their only amusement and
pastime. .

YOUNG WOMAN d.
CANNOT BE AROUSED

Ackley, March 22.-An extraordin.
airy case of a person lapsing into un.
consciousness and resisting the efforts
of physicians to restore her to ANNA
ton is now puzzling the doctors OF
this city and several from nearby
cities who have been called into con-
sultation.
Saturday, just before noon, Miss
Mary Brandt, daughter Of Dick
Brandt, living seven and one-half
miles north of Ackley, called at q To-
cal dentists Office complaining of a
toothache. The dentist found small
abscess and was making preparations
to lance 1t when he observed that the
yound lady had tainted. He called in
physician after few vain efforts
to restore her to consciousness, and
after an hours efforts on his part had
failed she was taken to the Miller hos.
pital. Since that time every effort
to arouse her has failed. Physicians
arc unable to discover a cause for her
conditions as she seems to be other
wise normal.

CANNOT ACCOUNT
FOR CATTLE'S DEATH

Des Moines, March 22.-John NJ
Russell of Palmer has written DR.. J. l.
Gibson, state veterinarian, that he is
losing a number OF cattle and he is
unable to account for their death I'M
less it comes from eating hay which
he sailed freely when it was put up
last summer. He says he has always
thought this was good for cattle but
since he stopped feeding the salty
hay his cattle have gotten all right
He believes that with the great
amount Of moisture last summer and
the use Of the salt some chemical ac-
ton may have taken place In the hay
which has rendered it harmful. DR..
Gibson is cooperating with him in try
ing to determine just what is the
cause Of his trouble.

ever, during the night he became
worse and died. He left family of

WANT TO CORNER

stuffs in Iowa seems to be under way.
Two representatives of the syndicate
supposed to be handling the buying
were here last week and bought hun,
dreds Of dollars worth of dyes 1t is
said they have visited all other imports,
ant cities in central Iowa.
Retail prices are being paid for the
dyes. -
The supply of dyes in this country
has been greatly lessened by the war,
as the biggest share of them came
from Germany. Prices already have
advanced sharply and it is presumed
the syndicate is buying on the as
sumption that still greater pric

NO TROUBLE OVER
SUNDAY MOVIES

Charles City, March 22.-Life was
dull in Charles City Sunday. William
Waterhouse, manager Of the Hildreth
theater. was not arrested and there was
no threatened battle between the sheriff
and an indignant populaoe.
For three successive Sundays Wa
terhouse was arrested for operating his
moving picture show on Sunday. There
were rumors that he would be arrest
ed this week and he telephoned to the
attorney for the antimovie forces ask
ing if he would be.
The board Of trustees Of the Con-
gregational church declined to permit
the holding Of a mass meeting there to
discuss the Sunday movie situation.
Local residents are inclined to believe
the truce between the promovie and
antimovie forces Is only temporary.
