CURATOR HARLAN LECTURES.
Head OF Historical Department
Speaks Before Local Society.

The tercentenary celebration OF the
landing OF the Pilgrims was enjoyed
by over 100 members and friends OF
the Historical Society Of Marshall
county Monday night at the Y. NJ. c.
A. auditorium. when E. r. Harlan,
of Des Moines, curator Of the histori-
dress and the pupils Of the seventh
grade Abbott school presented Lcns-
fellows Miles Standish."
In a most capable manner n. RI
Harlan traced the footsteps of the
Pilgrims, beginning with 4 discus
sion of the early European difficulties
and differences Of religious and phil
osophical opinions and the necessity
for an outlet of the spirit and an op-
nortunity to rear their families In
their own way. This led to the au-
ticipations and DEVELOPMENT of the
institutions as affecting the phases
Of liberation and individual,sm thru
the ages.
Mr.. Harlan concluded his discourse
by questioning the theory of any per-
sistent toleration, whether anything
permanent in the search for absolute
spiritual liberty could be obtained.
The description OF the departure and
trip as we'll as the mental conditions
Of the people in their movements
thru the strenuous years was clearly
presented.
Following the address Mrs. Lora L.
Richardson, principal Of the Abbott
school, presented her pupils In a
dramatic presentation of "Miles
Standish." All Of the children played
their parts exceptionally well and the
entertainment was thoroughly en-
joyed. Those taking the principal
parts were; Lois Winslow, Priscilla;
James Peterson, as Miles Standish;
Kenneth Simpson, as John Alden;
Ira Hufraker, as Squanto and Ralph
Goodale, as Elder Brewster.
An old fashioned social hour and
pretty candle light tea was enjoyed
after the program.

TlMMoNs ARRESTS HUNTERS.
Aneered by Frequent Trespassing
Marietta Farmer Nabs Trio.


Marietta Farmer Nabs Trio.
Angered by the repeated tres4
passing upon his land by hunters,
John Timmons, Of Marietta, Monday
took into custody three young men
from this city who were accused Of
hunting on Timmons premises.
Timmons is deputy game warden and
also the owner Of a Marietta town
ship farm with timbered acreage
along the river His farm is a fine
place. for live stock and hunters but
the former do not thrive when there
is multiplicity of the latter about.
And Timmons ayers there are too
many hunters and it takes con-
siderable portion Of his time, which
might be devoted to more profitable
employment, to chase hunters. There
are good hunters, who close gates
and shoot only at game and then
there are hunters who can't tell the
difference between a cow and cot
ton-tail. The latter class is the
larger, Timmons believes.
Monday Timmons discovered Leo
Pagano, Frank Solomone and Felix
Loddo, all of this city, on his prem
ises. The first two named carried
guns, the latter had ferret. Tim
mons demanded to see their, hunting
licenses but they had left the very
necessary hunting papers at home.
Making known his authority, Tim
mons detained the boys and tele-
phoned to the city for an officer.
Bailif L. D. Hampton, of municipal
court responded, but by the time he
arrived Timmons had found another
means Of conveyance for the trio and
had come to town. Hampton, know
ing nothing Of Timmons' change ia
plans, searched far and wide for
Timmons and finally returned here
alone, referring urgently to an occu-
patton which required q man to hunt
over vast tracts Of Iowa land in
search Of owners and law breakers
who were not there.
Hunting on enclosed premises
without a license was the charge
flled by Timmons against the three
men. Pagano and Salomone entered
pleas Of not guilty and were held
under bonds Of $50 each for ap-
pearance Dec. 23. On learning their
guns were to be held and wishing
to mako another hunting trip today,
the defendants finally changed their
pleas to guilty and were fined $40
and costs each. Loddo, who did not
carry gun, also pleaded not guilty.
His case was dismissed.
The men declared they did no
shooting on Timmons' place, Loddo
having released his ferret, which thew
followed on to Tlmmons' land, whore
the animal had located a rabbit.
