Then Robs Safe of Money

Directly after the noon hour on
Monday Dr. Il. o. McConnaughey, on
going to his dental Office in the new
Mccarthy building, noticed stran-
ger standing in the waiting room of
his Office, and upon entering the
room the doctor was approached and
begged for some cocaine. The doctor
repeatedly refused the stranger and
turned and left him and entered an
other room. Soon after the stranger

safe in the Office had been tempered
with. Examination found that some
money. amounting. to between six and
ten dollars. was missing. The safe
had i. been left unlocked. but the door
leading to the room had been locked.

been hanging around DR.. Robinson's
office as we'll as the Offices of DR.. Nee

visited the Schlumberger pharmacy.

WILL GIBSON NOW PARTNER
Well Known Automobile Expert Buys
Half Interest in Bruce Rogers
Garage on West Broadway

Announcement is made in another
column of the purchasing by Will
Gibson of a half interest in the auto
mobile business conducted by Bruce
Rogers. The transaction was made
the latter part of last week. and Mr..
Gibson is now half owner of the con-
Germ. 1t was made by reason of the
large volume of business being done
by the Rogers firm. and the necessity
of having an expert on the job all
the time. Mr.. Gibson has for years
conducted a repair shop in the same
building occupied by the Rogers gar
age, and had built up very lucrative
business This he will still maintain.
and personally superintend, but in
addition will look after the demon
stration and sales end of the business.
and be a competent assistant in the
handling of the business. The same
line of cars now handled will still
be kept. namely: the Willys-knight.
Overland and Haynes. The addition
to the firm does not mean that Mr..
Rogers will in any way divert his
attention to other lines, he will al
ways be found at the old stand. Many
friends of Mr.. Gibson extend congrat-
ulations and best wishes for his sue
cess in his new undertaking.

FOURTH WEEK
DISTRICT COURT
Renfro e. Lewis Win Case Against D.
e. Bremser for Use Of Plans and
Specifications
HOG CASE ATTRACTS ATTENTION
Case Of State VS. Cassebarth, Indicted
for Incest, Now Occupying the
Attention Of the Court.

The district court is engaged in the
trial OF jury cases this week and will
adjourn over the term before the end
of the week.
Court has been in session here now
for almost four weeks. The first week
was devoted to the trial of the Mac
Murtry VS. jain case, it being a spe-
cial term. The regular term COM
menced on the fourth day of Septem-
Der. The case on trial when the pa
per came out last week was that Of
Renfro & Lewis VS. D. e. Bremser, of
Dow City, and was brought to recover
$750C for the use of plans and speci-
ficatiOns in the construction of a
tired on Wednesday night and re-
turned verdict on Thursday fore
noon for the plaintiff and allowed
him the full amount of the claim.
This was followed by the case of
John Mathys VS. Clarence Bryan.
which was an action to recover dam
ages on account of the sale of hog
by the defendant to the plaintiff which
was affected with hog cholera. In
this case the defendant sold and de-
livered the hog to the plaintiff and
soon after the defendant discovered
hog cholera on his place and told the
plaintiff to return the hog because of
this discovery. The hog was returned
and later on the plaintiffs hogs be-
came affected with the cholera and
some of them died, and this suit was
brough9 to- recover damages. The
evidence failed to show that the de-
PENDANT. at the time he disposed of
his hog, knew that the hog was af-
fccted with cholera and the verdict
was directed by the court in favor of
the defendant.
The case now on trial is that of the
State of Iowa VS. Cassebarth. indicted
for incest. The case will probably
last the remainder of the day and
possibly longer. 1t is the kind of case
that attracts attention and the at
tendance is all that could be expected.
There rpobably will not be more than
one dase tried after this criminal
case. y

COLLEGE UNDER
GOING REPAIRS
Workmen Busy the Past Month or SO
Changing the Entire Outside as
Well as Interior of Buildings
MODERN FIRE ESCAPES ADDED
Expense of RemodeIins and Decorat-
ing Much Higher Than Was at
First Anticipated.

During the past month or two the
Denison college building and dormi-
tory have taken on an entirely differ
ent and newer looking appearance.
Workmen have accomplished wonders
and while the expense has been much
greater than was at first anticipated,
the results have been wonderful and
amply justify the outlay of money.
All rooms in the college building
have been painted and vanished and
many of the partitions have been TAX
en- out, thus making the recitation
rooms larger: new floors have been
laid: desks, tables. blackbOards gone
over and given d new appearance
New toilets are now installed, the
roof reshngled, a cement coal house
built, and many Of the rooms replast-
cred. Fire escapes of modern pat
tern have also been placed, and win
dows frightened up to keep out cold
winter winds The building is now
in tip-top shape and the students will
appreciate the wonderful change
made.
At the dormitory all of the bed
rooms have been repapered vanished,
cleaned from top to bottom, new
plumbing fixtures added in the bath
rooms; linoleum laid in the halls, and
the large dining room thoroughly rem
ovated. papered, vanished and placed
in strictly sanitary condition. All
kitchen furniture has also been gone
over and the heating plant renewed.
The $4,000 appropriated for the
purpose of remodeling the college will
not quite cover the expense, but the
school board is determined to house
tho students attending the college in
the best of shape, no matter what the
expense may be.
Mrs. John Silletto, who has charge
of the dormitory, is giving the best
of satisfaction. and those who are
rooming or boarding there are entire
ly satisfied.
