Seven Die in Iowa


 DIES MONIES, Iowa, May 21.-Tor- nadoes in central Iowa late today caused the death of at least seven persons and injured approximately 63 others, reports received here late to- night showed. Property damage was estimated at S750,000.
 The casualty list, though incomplete at midnight, gave four dead at Boone and 50 injured; two dead at Newton, ten injured, and one killed near Deni- son and two injured.
 Storm Area Large
 While the storm area extended from Denison, in Crawford county, east about 150 miles through Jasper county serious damage was reported only in the district near Denison, Boone and Newton, although detailed accounts from some sections were lacking be- cause of crippled communication.
 Boone was most seriously affected. Property damage in that city is es- timated near SS25,000 while the loss in the surrounding country will bring this to s500,000 it is feared.
 NeWtons loss exceeds $100000, prin- cipally borne by three washing ma chine manufactures there.

Wielgosz---Wanex

Miss Mary Wanex, daughter Of Mr.
and Mrs. Joseph Wanex. and Mr.
Browse Wielgosz, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Wielgosz, were united in
marriage Saturday, October fifth, al
ST. Mary's Church, Secretary, by
Rev. John M. Walsh.
The couple left for trip to Bal
timore and Washington. Upon their
return they will reside in Baltimore,
where the groom is employed.
1t seems a matter of great surprise
to many of the Republicans that
President Wilson should desire and
ask for a Democratic majority in the
Congress. The late President Nc
Kinley asked for a Republican Con-
gress during the Spanish-American
war, and some Of these Republicans,
including former President Roose-
velt and Senator Lodge, were among
those who stumped the country ask
ing for a Republican Congress, and
alleging that the election of Dem
ocratic Congress would be repudia-
ton of the then President McKin-
ley. How about the Republican
speeches Of Senator Lodge and Sen
ator Penrose in the United States
Senate, which are being sent out by
the tons ali over the country under
Congressional franks, that, of course,
in their minds. is all right, but for
Democratic President to ask the peo-
pie to elect a Democratic Congress
is an awful crime in the minds of
these very self-same gentlemen.
