Good Football Game.

Friday afternoon goodly number
of people gathered at the old fair
ground to witness football contest
between the high school team and a
team composed of young men of the
town. The game had been the talk of
the town sports for nearly week
and as result there was much inter-
est and enthusiasm. While both sides
played good game, the score was
overwhelmingly in favor of the town
team, which outclassed the school
team in weight. Although they lost,
we have heard the school team highly
praised for the manner in which they
played, and too, the young men of
the town who were almost entirely
without practice deserve to have
bouquets tossed at them. We see no
reason why other contests could not
be arranged. Outdoor sports should
De encouraged by every community.

Mrs. S. w. Gardner Burie,
Tuesday.
Buried

The many friends throughout the
state of Mrs, S. w. Gardner, and es-
pecially those of the Sweetwater, S.
c., church community, were shocked
and distressed to learn of her death
which occurred at her residence Mon
day morning at nine o'clock.
Mrs. Gardner has been in poor
health for number of years, but was
able to be up and about the house, so
her death was unexpected and a
great blow to her loved ones and
friends.
The funeral services were held this
afternoon at o'clock from the res
idence. The interment will be in the
family cemetery.
Mrs. Gardner was 79 years old, she
and her husband have lived in this
community all of their lives, and she
was loved and honored by both young
and old. Mrs. Gardner was conse-
Grated Christian woman, devoted
wife and mother, and one Of those
beautiful characters that are an in
spiration to all who come within their
influence. She was the soul of kind
ness and hospitality and she will be
greatly missed in the church and
neighborhood. She and her husband
were such devoted couple that the
greatest sympathy will now be ex-
tended to him and to her children
whose loss is so great.
The pallbearers yesterday were
Messrs Wiley Glover, Will Williams,
John Reese, T. j. Briggs, John Mum
dy and John Mealing. The funeral
services were largely attended and
many beautiful flowers were sent to
cover the grave where she was laid
to rest.-Augusta Chronicle.
The ;announcemnt OF the deaUn Oh
Mrs. Gardner caused genuine sorrow
among her Edgeield friends. She was
devout Christian woman. Before
her marriage she was Miss Mollie An
derson and was reared in the commu-
nifty in which she has resided through
out her long life. Mrs. Gardner was
the mother of six children who reflect
lasting credit and honor upon her and
her aged husband who survives her.
The Edgefeld friends of Mrs. Gard
ner did not know of her illness and
were greatly surprised to learn Of
her DEATH. Besides her devoted hus-
zand with whom she had passed so
many happy and helpful years, Mrs.
Gardner is survived by six children,
five sons, S. W., Jr., j. A., j. NJ, H.
S., and S. Q. Gardner and one daugh-
ter, Mrs. j. S. Reynolds.

BRINGS SUIT FOR
Big DAMAGES
FORMER AUDUBON MAN HERE
SATURDAY PREPARATORY TO
BRINGING LAW SUIT.

George b. Scott, a former resident
of Audubon, but now employed on
the Tribune in Fairfield, was in the
city Friday and Saturday consulting
his attorney and arranging to bring
suit against DR.. w. H. Horn, of Cher
okee, for alienation of his wife's af-
Hfections.
George Scott and his wife were
residents of this city for about three
years. Her maiden name was Essie
Herrick and she was born and raised
at Extra. 1t was while Mr.. Scott
was employed at Extra that they be-
came acquainted. Later he went to
Guthrie Center, where he was en-
ployed and after their marriage sew
en- years ago, they went to Guthrie
Center to make their home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Scott broke up house
keeping here about the middle OF
September, when she went to Council
Bluffs to make her home with a rel
alive. About the first of October
Mr.. Scott left and finally located at
| Fairfield. Mrs. Scott sued him for
divorce about the first Of October,
and she was granted q decree of di-
| vorce in the district court of Pot
| tawattamie county. Very little OF
their trouble was known here, for it
was generally conceded that they
were getting along nicely.
While in the city Saturday Mr..
Scott said DIR. Horn had interfered
with his happiness for sometime past
and he claims that 1t is due to the
attentions Of DIR. Horn that Mrs.
Scott transferred her affections from
him to the doctor. He is veterin-
arian and is practicing his profession
at Cherokee.
Just when the marriage took place
is not known here and It was not
known that Mrs. Scott had remarked
until last week. The announcement.
of course. created quite little SEN
sation fnasmuch as the public in gem
eral knew nothing of the divorce pro-
ceedfngs. The outcome Of the case
will be watched with considerable in
terest here and In Extra where both
parties are well known.

BE SLOGAN OF THE NEW
STATE OFFICIALS.

Changes In state government look
ing toward efficiency in administra-
ton, which was much discussed
issue in the state campangi this fall,
will undoubtedly come before the
Thirty-ninth general assembly this
winter. Just what changes willy be
suggested. however, is more or less
problematical.
II will probably remain for the
session itself to sort Of evolute this
legislation, II 1t is to assume prac-
teal form. There are various ideas
held by legislators and others inter-
eeted in state government and many
Views were expressed and changes
suggested in the fall campaign.
Az matter Of fact, in spite of the
attacks made to stir up partisan
feeling in theh last campaign, Iowa's
system of government is recognized
J - much in advance Of the majority
Of the states. Changes have been
made from time to time by the leg
islatures In biennial session and 1t
- TO be expected that changes will
continue. bringing the form of gov
eminent up to date to meet chang
Ing conditions.

state food regulations. These duties
should be done under one depart
ment, friends of this bill claim.
Newly elected officers taking Of
flee will be spurred to efficiency in
administration and the making of q
good showing for their offices be-
cause Of the criticisms as to state
government emphasized particularly
n the last campaign. They will have
the same machinery to work with or

have preceded them.
