Judging from the action brought
against Peter w. Hooshagen, by the
State Of Iowa, on complaint of c. l..
Cook, formerly in Mr.. Hooshagen's en-
ploy, and now the owner of shop OF
his own. Some weeks ago Mr.. Cook filed
an information against Mr.. Hoosha-
gen, charging him with violating the
Sabbath Observance law, and after a
hearing at that time Mr.. Hooshagen
was found guilty by Justice Pentony,
and fined the stupendous sum Of $l.OO
and costs.
On Monday Mr.. Cook filed another
information against his former en-
ployer, charging him with the same
offense. When arrested Mr.. Hooshagen
entered plea of not guilty, and asked
for jury trial. A jury composed OF
Clarence Cox, j. A. Strickland, w. u,
Hawks. H. Mcbride, Sherman Harris,
and Wayne Barker was empanneled
and several witnesses were heard IN
the case M. ]. Yoran appeared foI
the state, and Mr.. Hooshagen made
his own defense After few minutes

EXCITING NEWS

Considerable excitement was created
on Tuesday afternoon when the word
was passed about town that message
had been received by the Sheriff OF
the county. from officials of small
place in Nebraska, stating that the
officials of the Nebraska town had
picked up a boy in the railroad yards
and when they searched the lad they
found on his person a Farmers q
Merchants State Bank check book
bearing the name of Howard Fisher.
At first it was feared that Howard
Fisher, who had left last Friday Tor
the Pacific coast, had been killed by
some hold-up gang. A second mess
age brought the news that the young
man arrested in the yard was Howard
Fisher of Manchester, and that when
first arrested had withheld his true
name from the officers. Just why
the young man was picked up by the
officials has not been learned here

A BRILLIANT PIECE OF WORK.

Charles Baumgartner and w. B.
Hawkes. met with an accident just west
Of Dyersville on Monday evening
which might easily have proven faI
more serious in it's results than it did
although it was serious enough to
satisfy both of the gentlemen. 1t ap-
pears that Messrs Baumgartrer and
Hawkes. were at Dyersville on busi-
ness that afternoon, and started for
home at six. When they turned in on
the new piece OF roadway west of Dy-
ersville their Ford car struck wire
which had been strung across the
road as a signal for traffic to follow
the old road No danger signal had
been put in place, and the wire could
not possibly be seen in the night
The result was that the wire struck
both Mr.. Baumgartner and Mr.. Hawkes.
in the face inflicting ugly gashes. Each
one had to have the wounds dressed
before being able to proceed home
Had the wire struck the men four
inches lower the chances are that far
more serious injuries would have re-
suited.
II seems unbelievable that men who
have intelligence sufficient to do the
most common kind of road work
should place an obstruction of this
kind on a main travelled highway, and
neglect to put up proper danger sig

CHRISTMAS IN RUSSIA

On this day OF days when throughout
the whole civilized world men meet
each other with smiling faces and
wish each other the joys of the season
what Of Christmas in Russia? There
the simple peasant has been taught
the false doctrine that ito live in to-
day only is necessary-the morrow will
take care Of itself" But there is a
higher law than Leninized dictum.
The law Of life requires the accum-
ulation today for the possible needs
of tomorrow. AS a result of the dis
regard of this fundamental law of life,
we hear the piteOus crys Of starving
little ones in the great fertile land
of Russia. America, out of her &C
cumulation of days past is prepared
to give-and give she will with free
hand and generous soul.
A concrete example of this American
characteristic of foresight, a charac-
teristic which is yearly growing more
pronounced is the splendid sums be-
ing distributed to members OF Christ
beforeC Christmas days. Thousands OF
dollars have been accumulated by
thousands of thrifty people in order
that Christmas buying may be anti
cipated. Those who have so steadily
and Systematically saved their pennies
and their dollars buy with an intel
ligent idea Of the value of these saved
dollars, and our merchants have CO.
operated with them in selecting for
them gifts of usefulness and value
at fair prices. The buyer and these
good merchants Of ours believe in
and practice the rule Of the Square
DEAL" The difference between Christ
mas in Russia and Christmas in Amer
lea is the difference between lawless
waste and wise systematic exercise
Of the right to save and the realiza-
tion on the part of the American ci-
tizen of the sense Of individual re-
sponsibility.

"The noted high resale value o.

"The third economy, resulting from
