No license will be granted in the flu
ture to any transient auctioneers Of
any kind, and the license for peddlers
will be raised so as to make it prac-
tically prohibitive as the result Of a
conference held Friday afternoon with
Mayor Willard and a committee ap-
pointed by the retail merchants COM
m!ttee of the Marshalltown Club. This
committee presented a petition signed
by ia merchants, asking the mayor TO
take steps to prohibit such auctions,
and the above action was taken as
result.
The committee which presented the
petition to the mayor was composed OF
c. c. ST. Clair. chairman: E. E. Gid
ner, W. VI. Hodges, l.. c. Abbott a. F.
Balch. w. F. hines. and E. R. Lay
. Mayor Has Law on His Side.
According to City Solicitor +. Il.
Northup the mayor has a perfect right
to refuse licenses to any transient auc-
tioneer or those who come to the city
only for short space of time. With
this information at hand, the mayor,
who was readily impressed with the
position of the local retail merchants,
promised to refuse any such license.
He will also raise the fee on peddlers
licenses SO as to make it practically
impossible for any peddler to pay his
license and make enough out of his
sales to warrant his staying in town.
Auctions will be permitted in town.
but a restriction has been placed on
local merchants in this matter as well.
Only bankrupt stocks will be permitted
to be sold at auction. The only eXcep-
ton to the peddlers' permits will be
that Of agricultural or horticultural ar
ticles, which may be peddled from
house to house provided they are sold
by the person who raises them. This
ordinance is now in force here. and
will not be changed. The other city
ordinances which relate to peddlers
and auctions will be revised so as to
conform to this new ruling.
Club to Help in Litigation.
The committee presenting the petit
ton also promised that If any litigation
arose from these changes in the city
ordinances that the Marshalltown Club,
of which all the committeeman are
members, would stand part Of any ex
pense which the city incurred in set
Ting the case.

TEAM OFF FOR HARD GAME.

High School Boys at oskaloosa For
Next to Last Game.
Ready to fight for every inch of
ground they expect to gain, members
of the local high school football team
went this morning to Oskaloosa, ac-
companied by Coach Sanford and
Business Manager Miller as well as a
few rccters. Altho outweighed. the
local eleven expects to profit by dry
field. as they are fast, and with good
interference. should be able to gain
considerably against the down-stat
aggregation.
Neither team has been defeated. and
Oskaloosa has run up tremendous
scores against some OF the smaller
teams of southern Iowa. while Mar
shalltown has had little opportunity
with the exception of the Ames game
last week That Oskaloosa respects
the locals is shown by the fact that the
Oskaloosa coach was an interested
spectator at both the Ames and Boone
games played here. On account of the
poor defense put up by the latter and
the slippery field against Ames, Mar
shalltown displayed very few of it's
trick formations and played only
straight football. Therefore. it is rea-
sonable to expect that Sanford's men
ought to gain something by several of
their special plays which they have
been saving for a strong team.
Because of the high interest in the
Ames-Iowa game, PLAYED at Ames to-
day, only few football fans decided
to cast their lot with the high school
team, but many went to Ames, either
by automobile or train. Several groups
of high school students drove over,
while many others took either the
special train at 10 this forenoon, which
carried the Iowa team, or the regular
train at 11:25.

AMUSEM EN1S.
1.-THE Lady Buccaneers" Another Bur
!esaue Show, at the Odeon.

A small audience witnessed the per-
Torrance Of THE Lady Buccaneers at
the Odeon Friday night, and mani
tested very little enthusiasm over the
efforts of chorus and comedians to
please, alti1o members of the company
worked hard, as do all the burlesquers.
Fred G. Hackett and Will H. Conan
have the principal comedy parts. that
of an Irishman and a Jew They go
thru the usual run of antics, being
none too particular what they say Or
how they say it. Hackett's dancing
and acrobatic work was about the best
part of his performance. Dick Hahn
also did some very clever acrobatic
dancing in his speciality, the Scare
crow Bend
Besides large chorus there were
several feminine members of the cast
who demanded attention. F'lossie Nc
Cloud and Gertrude Ralston divided
the honors on songs. both possessing
plenty of life and snap. Miss Rails
toms song, when Evening Shadows
Fall" was one Of the most pleasing OF
the evening. Another pretty feature
was an old time cake walk presented
by the entire company with special
scenery, the whole spectacle being a
study in black and white.

COrdOvans Organize Home
  Builders Association.
(Cordova Times.)

The Cordoya Building Association met last night and effected a perma- nent organization by the election of the following officers: President, Nal colm Brock; secretary-treasurer, Ma thaniel Greene, who with H. A. Slater, A. J. Adams and George c. Hazelet will form the board of directors. A meeting of the directors has been call ed for Friday night, when plans will be outlined for the erection of more homes ir Cordoya.
 This organization is a timely one, as there is a demand for houses here, which it proposes to supply. These will be erected by the association for people who desire to purchase them on easy payments, thus giving them an opportunity of owning their own home by having the monthly rental ap- ply on the purchase price.
 A number of persons have already signifed their intention of taking ad vantage of this public spirited move ment to plan and have built for them the kind of home they desire to oc- cupy as permanent residents of Cor dova.

ROSE OF AUVERGNE"
 AND TRIAL BY JURY''
AT RED MEMS HALL LAST EVENING TO AOMlRING
 AUDIENCE.

The two above named comic operas given by some of Ketchikan's most talented people, were favorably re- ceived by the assembled audience at Red Mems Hall last night, though coming after "Pinafore," Queen Els ther" and the "Mikado," with all their wealth of beautiful music, gorgeous costumes and magnitude of product ion, the entertainment last night was somewhat of disappointment by comparison Having been given the best it is not easy to be satisfied with less.
 "The Rose of Auvergne" was per haps the better Of the two operas, and lost nothing in the presentation by Mrs c. C. Collins, Doe" Walker and Theodore Brown. Mrs. Collins was happily cast in the part of "Fleurette.' Her sweet lyric soprano voice gesture and carriage were charming and in character to dot.
 1 Doc Walker showed much orig inality and cleyerness and won much applause as the strong and tempestu- ous rival lover His "Alphonse' should have won the heart of any maiden, but in this case he loses to the less viril lover, Pierre" well i'm i personated by Theodore Brown. Both these roles were well sung and furn- ished the comedy of the opera.
 Trial by Jury" with cast of some 26 people, followed after a short in termission. Mrs. Collins and Mr. Brown were again the principles win ming new laurels and acquiring them selves splendidly.
 Mr. Pennell as the Judge" gave an excellent performance He was in good voice, and his adept flirting with the fair plaintiff would almost indicate long practice in that line, tho it might be only very good acting af- ter all.
 Walter Janggen was some big wig" to be sure, who by voice and ges- ture, very cleverely maintained Or der in the Court" Mr Dolan as coun- cil Lawrence Erickson, as foreman ol the jury. The jury itself and the four suffragettes which it included, all did their share in a most creditable man ner The bride and her maids were dainty in their wedding fnery, while the groom not-to-be was contrast in gloom. The fair spectators completed a very realistic court room scene which was brought to a happy end by the judge marrying the pretty plain tiff to the approval of all.
 The last performance of these two operas will be given tonight and those who have not already heard them might well take advantage Of this last opportunity.
 Mrs Harvey Stackpole contributed largely to the success of the operas by her efficient and brilliant support at the piano during the evening.
