His name is Nathan Boynoff and he
just tumbled into possession of S37S
because some friends back east tried
to pull a hoax on him by filling box
of clothes that belonged to him with
some supposed worthless junk that
now turns out tobe genuine German
dyes worth on the open market just
an. even s42 per pound.
Mr.. Boynoff was formerly a travelling
salesman with headquarters in Spring
field, Mass He sold the shoes and
used to experiment good deal with
different dyes in an effort to find some
thing suitable for dyeing shoes He
purposes. When he came to Webster
City four years ago, he left some
clothes and other things in Springfield
and some time ago wrote for them.
His friends packed them and then, just
for good measure. filed the box with
all the dye: he had in the place.
While down in his cellar cleaning up,
Mr. Boynoff ran upon this old box Of
clothes, opened it up and. just thru
curiosity, looked closely at the cans
he found. They were German dyes

MILWAUKEE RAILROAD BUYS BIG
TRACT AT ATKINS, NEW ri.
VISION TERMINAL.
ACTION LONG EXPECTED
FINALLY TAKEN BY ROAD
Immediate Steps to Be Taken Toward
Building Of New City Northwest Of
Cedar Rapids-New Shops Expected
to Be Ready For Occupancy in About
One Year-Means Saving to Road.

Cedar Rapids, Aug. 1.-THE Chicago,
Milwaukee q ST. Paul Railroad Com
pany late yesterday closed a deal for
the purchase Of seventy acres of land
at Atkins twelve miles west of Cedar
Rapids. on which it will erect new
shops.
The shops at Marion will be removed
and the hundreds of employees of the
road will move to Atkins.
Atkins instead of Marion will be-
come the division point.
Contracts for the shops buildings
were 70 have been let at Chicago today
and work will be started inside Of two
weeks.
The shops will be ready for occu-
pancy in about year, it was said at
Atkins today.
The closing of this deal sets at final
rest, rumors which have been current
in Cedar Rapids and Marion for sew
eral years regarding the disposal of the
shops. Rumor has had it that Van
Horn, Atkins and Covington were to be
the final location Of the shops.
Final Option Closed.
The present deal has been pending
several weeks but it was not until late
yesterday that the final option was
closed.
The company paid from $3.50 to $4OO
an acre for the seventy acres.
One tract which is imm ediately ives:
of Atkins contains forty acres and on
this will be erected the round house
and shops. The other land lies along
the tracks for distance of about
half mile and ranges from % to 100
feet in width. The price is considered
cheap and no attempt was made by the
half dozen persons who owned the land
to hold up the company.
Division Superintendent Wood, AMI
Assistant Superintendent E. l.. Sim
clair and Mr.. Wood, the real estate and
right of-way agent Of the road, were
at Atkins yesterday and went to Chi
cago last night to let the contract. Six
contractors also were present prepar-
ing to bid on the work.
Reason For tho Change.
The reason for moving the shops
from Marion is TO extend the division
point to the 100-mile distance. Sa-
wanna, ILL.,, is the first division point
east Of Marion, and it is ninety-four
miles from Marion. Under the law
the company is compelled to pay its
men for run Of 100 miles, no matter
whether they run that distance or not.
There IS difference Of twelve miles
in the round trip, for which the COM
pany is compelled to pay and from
which it derives no income.
