CRESCO HOWARD COUNTY, IOWA. FRIDAY DECEMBER g. 1916
Shooting Affair Near Elma.

AS the result Of drunken row fol-
lowing night of drinking and card
playing, Jacob Eggenschwyler is in the
Jail at Cresco and his victim, Frank
Meyer, is at the Rochester, MINI, Hos
pital awaiting the result of his injuries.
Thesem with two others had spent
all of last Friday night at the Eggen-
schuyler home, one mile south and
about forty rods west of Elma, and for
some reason not clearly known to even
the participants themselves, Eggen-
schuyler drew a revolver, a 38-calibre,
and shot twice at Meyer, the first shot
tearing away the outside Of his left
ha I'd and the second penetrated the
left lung and lodged near the spine.
Although the shooting occurred about
five O'Clock in the morning, doctor
was not summoned until nine o'clock
and all the parties were at the place
when Sheriff Ferrie arrived about three
O'Clock and took Eggenschwyler into
custody.
At last accounts, Meyer was slowly
gaining strength and hopes for his re-
coVery are entertained

Mining Beer in Elma Cellars.

One day last week while Fred Stretch
aud Herman Schwake were engaged in
excavating the cellar for Alvin Gross
new hardware and tin shop on the west
side of Busti Ave. opposite Miller's
store they struck mine of olden
golden glory, a case of private stock
that had nestled in the bosom of moth
er earth for score or more of years.
The men were at work with team and
scraper. Mr.. Stretch wasLdriving the
team and Mr.. Schwake was holding the
scraper. On the fatal roundsthe scrap
er struck something that made sound
like breaking glass and there was an
immediate outburst of gas, and Henry
yelled "Whoa, Whoa-up stop, halt. y
What's the matter inquired Fred, draw
ing rein, Oh! replied Henry, drawing
a cork, I am just going.to set 'em up!
here, have one on me-" and he handed
Fred bubbling, sparkling bottle of
beer. The scraper had broken several
bottles. Oh, why didn't theyidig that
cellar with spade, one of those toy
spades like children use to play in sand,
then they might have saved all of the
salvage.
An old inhabitant explains that a
blind pig was located in building situ'
ated on that lot some twenty years ago,
and that the proprietor had habit of
burying his surplus stock in a hole in
the bottom of the cellar. After the
fire many years ago it was evidently
forgotten, or perhaps they thought it
was spoiled.
But the stuff that made Milwaukee
famous can make town lots in Elma
draw the spot light and we look for an
advance in vacant lot values right
away. The beer is said to have tasted
very good, although stronger than the
stuff we get now.-Elma New Era.

MT. .AnV

Joseph Mlady was Born ou the 9th

years old emigrated to America with
his father Francis Mlady and seven of
his brothers and sisters. The family
settled in New Oregon Twp. in Howard
county, Iowa, where the deceased en-
gagged in farming, which calling hepur-
sued successfully until his death. In
the year 1880 he married Miss Marie
|Dvorak AS a result of this union
there were boSne to them three child

Of those dependent upon him. He was
extremely liberal in his views and ac-
corded to others the same measure of

Build Church At Chester.

Rev. Father Whalen, formerly assist
ant to Father John Have when the
Decorah and Bluffton parishes were
combined, has been appointed to build
Catholic Church at Chester, Iowa.
Chester has never had resident priest

be the priest in charge. While the
church is building he will reside at
Cresco, where he is chaplain of Mercy
hospital. He will divide his time be-
tween the hospital and the building at
Chester.
In the past several months Father
Whalen has been curate at Lawler. He
visited here with Father Hogan the
fore part of this week and left yester-
day for his new duties, which We hope
will be pleasant for him and beneficial
to the church. .-Decorah Journal.

BIG CLEVELAND REPUBLICAN
OUT FOR WILSON
Cleveland, Oct. 2T.-The Hughes
campaign here got terrible jolt to-
day when Homer H. Johnson, lead
ing lawyer and lifelong Republican,
announced that he would probably
vote for President Wilson"
Johnson was a delegate to the Chi
cagO convention that nominated
Hughes and is a member of the Re-
publican county executive commit
tee of Cuyahoga county, which in
clUdes Cleveland. He is an ex-presi-
dent of the Cleveland chamber of
commerce and is one of the most
public spirited men in the city.
president Wilson has handled the
difficult situations of his administra-
ton as well as they could have been
handled" said Johnson.
81 have the highest admiration for
Wilson. 1 think highly of Hughes,
too, but I think there is no necessity
for making a,change.
"In all this carping criticism and
fault finding that has been INDUCED
in this campaign, sight has been lost
of the paramount issue, the diplo-
matte problems to be handled and
the big questions that will have to be
decided when peace comes.
President Wilson is a bigger man
than his party. have the utmost
confidence in him and in his ability
to handle the big questions that will
come up for settlement after the war.
"The issues to be decided after the
war make the presidential election
this year a question Of men rather
than parties.
when it comes to a choice this
year between two splendid men l be-

experience and he has shown that he

LEGA0RN IS POPULAR BREED
Fowl Is Hardy and Prolific With Alert
Style and Carriage-They Are
Great Producers.

The Leshon may be- said TO be the
smallest OF the practical and popular
breeds Of domesticated chickens in
America. They originated in Italy
but have been bred in this country
for MANY years.
OF this breed there are nine recog-
ni2ed varieties, several Of which were
created in this country. They com
prise a group cf useful fowls, char.
acterized as being rather small in
size and graceful in conformation,
says Wisconsin Agrlculturist. They
are hardy and prolific with alert style
and carriage. The modern LeshorH
is rather long in back and body and
well upon legs. The cOncaye sweep
Of back to tail without any decided
angle at juncture of tail Is n charac-
teriSt!c peculiar to the breed. The
tail should be well spread and car.
ried at IN angle % 40 70 10 degrees
above the horizontal. The neck should
be rather long, gracefully arched, and
rather slender, especially in the fe-
male. The comb should be rather
small In size, the females dropping
slightly TO one side. The eye should
be reddish bay in color, the shanks
and the skin yellow.
The Leghorns are very popular with
the operators Of egg farms on ac-
count Of their white shelled egg and
also because they are nonsitters. The
white egg IS very desirable for sup
l,..ag q fancy cs- trade, but on the
common market no extra price is
( paid for them.

SUBSTITUTE FOR GAME BIRDS
Flesh Of Guinea Has oamy Flavor
and Is Gaining Popularity In Some
OF Eastern Cities.

The flesh Of the guinea has n gamy
iavor and n coming into use as a
substitute for game birds in some Of
the eastern cities. The young guinea,
two-pound size, is quoted by some
commission merchants ut from ~ TO
20 cents each, while old guineas are
quoted on the same market at -
cents each. Guinea eggs sell al the
same price as hen eggs and have the
advantage Of having much thicker
