Husky Wayfarer
Swings Heavy Grip
on Footpad's Bean

Cedar Rapids. July 19.-'Hands up.
says the desperate hold-up man.
Go to thunder!" says w. T. Car
penter. swinging his heavy grip and
landing II plumb on the roughneck's
beezer.
The stick up man Is loose again!
Judging from the report at the sta
rough specimen that one might mag
inc, however.
Late Thursday evening w. T. Car
penter. living at 421 South Seventeenth
street, was pursuing his way to home
and bed. when he heard someone
walking behind him. He walked faster,
and likewise did the man behind. He
slowed up and the man behind fol-
lowed suit. He walked on his tiptoes
and went quietly for a while, the man
behind continued to mimic him.
Staying at an even distance several
PAGES behind the homeward bound
traveller, the follower seemed to have
no other intention than to keep close
to the man he pursued.
The situation became uncanny and
suddenly Carpenter wheeled and asked
the man what his idea in following
him was. In return the fellow whip
ped out a gun and told the traveller to
hold up his hands.
After having been bothered by be-
ing followed for several blocks 1t
seems that Mr.. Carpenter was not In
an amiable frame Of mind and with
a devil may-care recklessness he
swung his heavy travelling bag and
BAN! the poor holdup became the
recipient Of a hundred pound blow,
right on the bean.
Now there are bandits and bandits,
but few Of them have the nerve to
face a husky gentleman when he
seems inclined to playfully tap them
on the beezer with a heavy travelling
bag, so without waiting to return the
tag" the gunman struck off going
east on Fifth avenue at his best speed.
The man is described as being thir-
ty or thirty-five years old. five feet,
eight inches tall and at the time was
wearing a soft light hat and a dark
suit.

Least Ono More Year.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa City, July 19-The Iowa Pat
riotic League, Of which $4,000 high
school students in the estate have been
members during the past school year,
will be continued next year, according
to information recently given out from
the extension division Of the university
of Iowa, which has fostered the league.
The league was organized during
the time of war for the purpose or
training boys and girls of Iowa to do
their part in combating German prop
uganda. When the arimstice was
signed 1t was continued, and the chii-
dren took up the study of reconstruc-
ton problems. The work Of the
league which consisted Of reading IN
current magazines and books on the
problems confronting the nation was
concluded by local and state essay con-
tests in which there was widespread
interest.
The decision to continue the league
another year has come as a response
to many letters from superintendent
and principals Of schools all over the
state. The national program Of Am
determination which is being carried on
in Iowa by the extension division OF
the university is expected to be con-
Siderably strengthened by the WORK
the Patriotic league.
That the league will be many times
larger next year than this is the be-
lief of those promoting it. Many
schools that signed up last autumn fol
the work were forced to discontinue II
when the influenza epidemic came
Contests will be conducted next year
ON a larger scale and it is the hope o.
the university that every high school
etudent in the state will be an active
member.

Of Police L. NJ. FIattery, among other

In another part Of your communica-
ton you refer to the police method
of filing charges. AS rule the police
man files some charge and then fol-
lows the advice of the police magis-
trate as to what formal charge to file.
In this connection desire to say that
you personally have asked for the re-
lease Of more persons arrested by the
police than any other public officer In
Fort Dodge in many years. The police
made an arrest of three women
charged with disorderly conduct, con-
sisting Of prostitution, and you per-
sonally sent a note to the sergeant In
charge asking for the release Of one OF
these women after she had been sem
fenced to thirty days in the city jail
for her conduct. You finally procured
her release upon grounds that seemed
proper to you. Why blame the police
men and why charge them with allow
ing immoral women to remain In Fort

MANY ARTISTS STILL HOLD
 FAST TO ARTISTIC IDEALS.

It is refreshing to discover amidst multitudes of "artistes'' in and about the theatres and concert halls, one who still cherishes the determinat ton to hold fast to the artistic ideals which gave the first inspiration for artistic endeavor. Sucn an artiste is Madame Desiree Luoovska, the re- markable interpretative dancer in New York who recently refused an enormous salary to "popularize" her dancing art.
 Madame Lubovska declared that art was popular in its highest form, and the duty of an artiste was to open the eyes of the public to these beauties rather than to cIothe real art in false and garish colors to at tract the notice of the unregenerate.
 1 am not a high brow, as the term is understood" she protested. "But I believe that art is as true as nature, and that its enjoyment is as natural as any desires. At any rate g she continued, eff we are to go through life to our allotted span, car ryfng our aims and ambitions, they might as we'll be rag of real dia- monds as one of limitations"
 And with that inspiration this art iste at least holds true to her artistic convictions.

PLAZA.

Eugene O'Brien is seen in his first Selznick picture, The Perfect Lover," adapted from Leila Burton Wells novel, 'The Naked Truth" and is playing for the last times today at the Plaza theatre.
 The Perfect Lover" is the story of an artist, a worshipper of beauty. He becomes the rage among the smart set in New York. No woman can re- sist his charms. He is the perfect lover." What happens to him proves a breezy, thrilling story of love, art and intrigue.
 Pearl White in the first episode of the serial of a thousand sensations, ''The Black Secret" and a good all around vaudeville bill is also showing in conjunction with "The Perfect Lover"
 The Mysterious MT. Browning" which comes to the Plaza theatre to- morrow for a three-day run, Is a pie ture that is unusual in it's theme as any that has been produced this sea- son. It is a story that has been told in real life.
 Some few years ago such a story as ''The Mysterious MT. Browning was actually told by the Denver papers. A certain respectable business man, with a secret mission, became an un- derworld worker at night. His prowl- ings excited suspicion, but for years he was able to lead his dual existence without discovery. The story is an interesting one and is full of excite ment and pathos. The stars are Wal ter Miller, Paul Panzer and Edna Maison. A corking good vaudeville has also been booked for the last half of this week.

 BALL TO BE
 GREAT EVENT

The theatrical ball given by the American Legion Thursday night at the Casino undoubtedly will stand as the feature event of the season. The committee on arrangements has pro- vided not only for the appearance of famous musical and vaudeville stars to comprise a program that never has been equalled here, but also has concocted several unique numbers for the dancers.
 One of these will be a dance staged by the audience in the midst of a bowling snowstorm. The illusion will be an excellent one, having been in vented by a well known New Yorker mixed up in the producing end of the stage game. Another dance which will be novel, will have the dancers bathed in the flood of the moons rays.
 The vaudeville program is a stellar one, including Johnnie Nester, the singing iceman, whose exceptional vocal abilities electrified New York audiences. Mrs. c. B. Maddock, one will give a short classic program. MISS J uH0 hulSHt, liS Cl1dI1Il1uS SO- prano, and the famous team of Miss Maude Kellar and Billy SeItsam- these three Bridgeport stars will also assist. The latter two are won derfu1 dancers and are in line for na- tiona1 honors very shortly.
 Music for the dancing will be pro- vided by Murray's famous orchestra and 16-piece jazz band. Souvenirs yu;1 "a fiuen in the 9ndiAnca
