Eldora, April 22.-The first i'm
pressions of stranger within the
gates Of Eldora are OF n prosperous
community whose members. individ-
uallyTa d collectively, possess great
pride in their homes and environ
ment Eldora has miles Of paved
streets, hundreds of honey residences
amid well-kept surroundings, and a
general air of well-being which is
reflected In the prosperity of Its fl
nancial institutions and in the stocks
of those engaged in merchandising.
This evident contentment may be in
part responsible for the fact that
many who have been renters have
been compelled to buy homes or be
classed as tenants without a place
to tenant.
Residence property in Eldora has
doubled and in some instances tre-
bled in value within the past two
years. Some new residences are
planned for the present year, and
the work of remodeling the building
OF the Hardin County National Bank
is under way. The Masonic frater-
nifty is laying plans for the CONVEX
sion of the business building recent
ly purchased, into modern temple.
The Masons have evolved a rather
novel plan for financing their under
taking. They will avoid the usaul
building corporation and in it's stead
are forming mutual association. No
stock will be issued. Instead the
members will make loans to the as

some of the biggest real estate deals
in Hardin county, tells me that the
high price of farm lands is perrna-
ncnt and that these lands are worth
the money. He doubts. however. the
permanency of the present values Of
city property. He says the demand
for farms does not equal that of last
year, indicating that the mere spec
.,iiator in Iowa soil has had his day
and that future sales will be for
permanent Investment or by bona
fide farmers.

over that another hoop was shrunk
ana locked to the forward hoop. There
also was a patch of 1877 feet which
was attached at the muzzle of the
gun.
The bore of the gun was treated to
a uniform rifiing. the lanes and
grooves which impart a rotary motion
TO the projectile. The six-meter sec
ton Of the gun at the muzzle, how
ever, was unrified, probably designed
to steady the projectile and defeat its
slight tendency to tumble" or yaw
and fail to travel directly to Its mark.
Such "tumbling" is caused by the con-
fict Of two forces, one spinning the
projectile to the right, the other send
Ing 1t forward. Such force had to be
obviated as the shell had to travel up
ward "a miles on Its arc In order to
cover the horizontal distance Of 70
miles.
Clever Expedient to Proionu Life.
The life Of the giant gun, which was
$4,000 pounds in weight and 122 feet
long, under the heavy pressure of its
high velocity projectile was very lin
tied. But when the Germans found
the span of the gun amounted to only
80 pounds they hit upon u clever ex-
pedient. They bored out the 21-centi-
meter tube, which was very thick, to
"a centimeters and later to 20 centime-
ters. giving it just so much more life
at each caliber, with only change to
larger ammunition required. The shell
hurled by the cannon weighed 264
pounds and was 10 inches In length.

Precious Stones, Supposed to Have
Formed Part Of Famous Jewels Of
Russian Royal Family, un-
earthed by Federal Officers.

Washington.-Traffic by bolsheyist
agents in precious stones, supposed to
have formed part of the famous Jewels
OF the Russian royal family, has been
unearthed by federal authorities.
The 131 diamonds found on Nells
Jacobson, Swedish sailor, by customs
officials in New York July %. it be-
came known, were inclosed in a pack
age addressed to "Comrade Martens" !"
Using this as a lead. federal officials
began an investigation which they de-
clare has definitely connected Ludwig
o. A. h Martens, self-styled soviet am
bassador to the United States. with the
traffic.
Disclosure Of the fact that the pack
age was intended for soviet agents in
this country was withheld by customs
authorities when Jacobsen was arrest
ed, although the details as to the seiz-
ure of the jewels themselves were then
made public.
Identifies Martens Aid.
Jacobsen. officials say, identified
during the course of the investigation
photograph of Santerl Nuorteva, for
mer secretary of Martens, as a person
to whom previous packages had been
delivered.
Introduction of the alleged incrimi-
natory evidence of the traffic in pre-
cious stones between soviet representa-
dves In this country and abroad at the
last hearing in the last deportation
proceedings against Martens resulted
in postponement of further hearings to
enable the self-styled ambassador to
obtain evidence, If possible, in refuta-
tion of the charges.
Counsel for Martens already has
asked that the government commits
sion be sent to Stockholm to investi-
gate the system in which he is ac-
cused of being implicated.

Cling is described by government off,
