Mobridge, 8. D., Jan. 7.-Over a
score of persons, travelling in day
coaches, were injured about SO miles
west of here, Tuesday afternoon,
when the westbound Columbian pas
senger train on the Chicago, Milwau-
kee and st. Paul road crashed through
a small bridge near Wautauga- Twen-
ty-five victims were brought here

but all probably will recover.
The Columbian left the Twin Cities
Monday night and left Aberdeen for
the coast yesterday morning.
According to first reports received
here, the bridge near Wautauga was
on fire but later reports contra.dicted
this information. Railroad officials
declared that their meager advices in

collapsed but that the sleeping cars
remain on the tracks. Only the day

CRESCO HOWARD COUNTY, IOWA. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY g. 1920
Electric Light "Service" for the Farm

The rapid introduction of farm elec-
trio plants during the past few years
has brought with it the important
question of service.
"Service, it should be understood,
means the expert attention to his
electric plant which the owner may
never need but which he can have on
short notice if he ever requires it.
The average farmer looks at an
electric light and power plant as more
than a mere piece of machinery. To
him it is q means toward an end. and
that end is the furnishing Of complete
and dependable electric service on his
farm.
The farmer is not an electrician and
he doesn't want to be one. He is ex'
perienced with machinery and he
knows how to take care of if, but be
also knows that the best machinery in
the world some times needs expert et-
tention and he wants to know that
there's an experienced mechanic within
reach to give his electric plant atten-
tion if it becomes necessary. In other
words he expects Service"
There are these two main things to
be considered in the purchase of farm
electric plant. In the first place
there's the matter of other users ex-
periences. With the great increase in
the use of electricity on the farm in
the last few years, there is scarcely a
community in the country where elec-
trio plants are not already in use. 1t
is quite easy, therefore, for the pros
pective buyer to make inquiry among
his neighbors as to the satisfaction
they are receiving from their plants.
Where q particular make of plant is
giving good service to large numbers of
users, it is evidence of good design and
work manship in its manufacture.
|. The other thing to be considered
and it is equally important-is the mat
ter of local representation of the par
ticala- plant in question. If there is
an establahed representative of q
plant in aommunlty, prompt "ser'
vice." if 'r needed. is assured.
Such a req is in q position
t. stake car astomers.
The average bis s. good and
careful buver, and doubtless take
.in.s consideration the things mention.
dghere. If he does he can be assured
of enjoying continuous and dependable
electric service in his home!

"fIe-Flo" at Greene. i. We'll Received

John Cort has spared no expense IN
the presentation of "Flo-Flo', the two
act musical comedy which was the
attraction at Greene's last evening.
The company is large and probably the
best costumed that has been seen in this
city all this season. The lingerie scene
in the first act and 9 similar scene in
the second made the women in the audi
ence sit up and sigh with envy and
delight; and the men were not looking
at each other, either. l'
There's lot of pretty music in both
acts and most Of the songs were well
sung." Elinor McCune. Rhea Norton
and Hazel Alger won much applause
with their singing and with the cap
able manner in which they handled
their respective roles. The chorus was
comely and we'll trained.

went much better than it did on its

it could have had the inspiration of .

than Saturday, it would have been one
OF the most conspicuous successes of
the musical comedies of the season.

New York, Dec. 21.-What's the matter with Jack Dempsey?
 Dr. Frank Bonine, of Niles, Mich, one of the foremost ear specialists in the United States, may be able to an swer the question.
 It may be that the heavyweight champion of the world has gone back gone back because of an injured ear.
 According to a copyrighted United News dispatch from Niles yesterday Jack Dempsey arrived in that city to undergo an examination of his left ear by the noted surgeon His jour ney to the Michigan city was sur rounded by the greatest of secrecy.
 Dempsey left New York with his manager. Jack Kearns, ostensibly bound for his home in Salt Lake, where he intended to spend the hol- days with his mother, sisters and brothers.
 The champion left the train at Buffalo, while Kearns went OF to Chi cago.
 surrounded by friends. When asked where Dempsey was Kearns replied that the boxer had left him at Buffalo and from there he had gone to Ben ton Harbor Mich, to visit friends.
 The truth of the matter is that Dempsey was hurrying to Dr. Bonine.
 Upon reaching Niles the champion immediately entered the office of the specialist. The doctor hastened through with his work and left with the Dempsey. Before leaving. how ever, he gave an interview in which he declared that he expected Demp- sey to stay in Niles for an indefinite period, and that the pugiiist would undergo a series of treatments for his ink d ear
 The supposition is that Dempsey s left ear, which was severely injured in his fight with Jess Willard at Tol- oGn TIJlv 1 1918 had suffered more hurts during his fight with Bill Bren- nan in Madison Square Garden last Tuesday night.
 Following the Dempsey-Willard championship match the new title holder spent ten days at Dr. Bonine's S home in Niles. During this period the specialist treated the injured member regularly.
 Tuesday night ringside fans first noticed a crimson flow from Demp- sey's left ear about the fourth round The flow became greater as the con | test went on, and by the eighth round l looking pugilist- The amount of blood which spurted from his ear and his | inability to finish his opponent be- fore the twelfth round started an 1 endless gossip.
 l Ever since the bout the question
 Whats the matter with Dempsey ?'' ] has been asked wherever fight fans | have aSSem b1ed. | Fans were more or less shocked by | the champions exhibition. Some of the fighting experts de-
 clared that Dempsey had gone back. Can an ear injured internally cause
 a prize fighter to go back quickly? l One of the best known of New York's ear specialists yesterday de | clared that it can.
 "I am supposing that Dempsey is suffering with some sort of an inter nal injury to his left ear,' the spe- cialist stated. 1'I cant say that he is because Dr. Bonine hasn't examined the champion yet. It may be tha1 his mastoid cells are diseased an6 that pus is emitted.
 | Chronic discharging ears are com mon among boxers, for I have exam ined many of them.
 ''The cells become tender when dis
 eaSed and blood flows freely when the

INJURED EAR MAY BE
 SLOWING DEMPSEY UP

head is hit in the neighborhood of the ear. Not only that but there is danger of driving the pus into the brain cavity. Death invariably fol- lows. Dempsey injury may only be an external one and not serious. But he is likely to develop what he has fought shy of for Q, long time-a cauliflower ear. Infected mastoid cells are difficult to cure, and they frequently affect other organs in the head, infection resulting in death.''
 Should the titleholder be suffering from an internal ear injury, it seems only logical that boxers who meet him hereafter will seek to direct their punches at that member, knowing it to be one vulnerable spot on the heavyweight's body. Should the champions ear be infected he will go back, no doubt, if he isn't already on the decline.
 This story is built on supposition to a large extent. It may be that Dempsey's injury is only external, as Jack Kearns said yesterday in Chi cago. On the other hand, should disease be in the delicate organisms of the ear, it is apparent that Demp- sey faces the hardships of a has been -dreaded by every boxer in the ring.

New York, Dec. 23-Joe Lynch should be a popular champion. The new bantanweight king, crowned by virtue of fifteen-round decision over Pete Herman, likes to fight. He promises to meet anybody worthy of a chance at the title he has won and if he lives up to that promise he will be the most popular bantam who has held the championship in years.
 Lynch is idolied in Gotham because he is New York boy. born and bred on the West Side. He is also New York's first bantamweight champion in two decades. Terry McGovern was the bantamweight champion for a short year, but Terry was not an out-and-out New Yorker, having been born in Johnstown, Pa
 The new champion has come to the front in rapid strides.
 It has been only in the last two years he has attracted more than passing attention and only within the last six months that he took his last long steps toward the title. In knocking out Jack Sharkey a few months ago, Lynch earned the right to meet Herman and today he is champion and the possessor of Tex Richards diamond-studded belt.
 Herman had his admirers in the Garden last night. In fact, the title

 Forfeit Of $2OO
Guarantees His Appearance Against Sammy Goode In
 New Haven Monday

Louis Bogash, we1terweight title contender, today posted a. forfeit of $200 with the New Haven boxing commission to guarantee his appear ance in that city next Monday night where he is scheduled to box Sammy Goode, the Pacific Coast whirlwind. This bout is scheduled for 15 rounds and will signal the opening of an- other season in the Elm City.
 Goode is reputed to be one of the best scrappers developed on the Pa cific coast of recent years and in con- senting to meet Bogash he tackles an admittedly hard customer. Although Goode;s fame is merely local he will strive to show Connecticut boxing fans that Bogash is not invincible. He has done good work in four round bouts and is making appreciable pro- gress over the longer distance.
 There will be Al rounds of milling. Battling Repka of Shelton meets Patsy Bogash of Bridgeport.

Joe Lynch Will Be
 A Popular Champion
New York Bantam Outclasses Herman In Championship Match In Madison Square Garden--Verdct Received With Great Cheers

ex-champion was a favorite in the betting right up to ring time when even money prevailed. But Herman did nothing when he got into that ring to justify the confidence that had been shown in him.
 Lynch carried the battle to Her man from the first tap of the gong and won 13 out of the 15 rounds. Herman made but one flash in the whole bout and that came in the tenth when, seeming to realize that title was slipping away from him he flew into Lynch and sent the West Side boy back to his corner tired and blowing.
 If Herman thought Lynch would come back tinnidly in the eleventh, however, he was badly mistaken for the red headed little scrappe1 flew out of his corner at the bell and it was all Lynch from that time on. Herman hurt his chances with the judges by much running away and much clinching. He fought one of the poorest battles of his career He was cleanly outclassed and the verdict of the judges was received with cheers that shoow the ancient Garden to its very foundation.
 Surely, Lynch will be a popular champion, the tenth of his class in America, and the sixth recognized bantam champion of the world.

AMERICAN LEAGUE FACTIONS ARE NOT
 BURNING RATCHET

New York, Dec. 23-War between the rival factions in the American League looms directly ahead today. Statements issued by Colonels Rup pert and Huston and Harry Frazee, of the insurgents, and answer by Ban B. Johnson who has constantly defied the rebellious faction, can only lead toward a renewal of active hostili- ties, according to baseball men here today. F'razee is the latest to fire a broadside. In a letter to Ban John son made public today. he suggests that Johnson tender his resignation as president of the league and strongly advises'' Johnson to teEmi- nate further attacks on the Boston American League club, or me, per Sonally.'
