Young Son Lost.

Young Sterling Mckee. two year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Maynard Mckee,
who reside just northeast Of the city,
gave his parents and grandparents a
lively scare for an hour yesterday
morning while they searched for him.
The youngster had spent the night-a
coveted pleasure-with his grandpar-
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. H. B. Mckee, who
reside on Boone street, and early in the
morning went with his grandfather out
to feed the chickens. Mr.. Mckee re-
turned to the house for few minutes
leaving the child in the yard, and dur
ing that time che little one had dis
appeared.
Practically the entire neighborh0od
assisted in the search on foot and with
cars, but it was not until an hour later.
that Howard Mckee, the baby's uncle,
spicd little figure trudging along
down on Superior street and effected
the rescue.
The small two year old has the "rov-
ing foot" and has given his relatives
many an uneasy half hour while they
searched for him. A week or two ago
he was mile or so on the highway to
this city when his anxious mother
overlook him. He was enroute to
town with tight little bouquet Of
dandeliOns for ''grandma's."

Stanhope's Sewer.

Stanhope Record: Well, the hearing
on the storm sewer proposition was
held Monday evening, May 2nd, and the
usual number of prominent citizens,
who have property in town were pres
ent and as usual were "Ag'in It." Most
of them agreed that we ought to have
sewers, good streets, etc. but they adj
vanced no argument to show how it
could be done without some one fur
nishing the money. 1t was decided to
outlet the sanitary sewer west Of town
instead of south of town as was first
planned. To do this it will be necessary
to back up and take new start on
that proposition which will take about
30 days. Then the council will be in
shape to advertise for bids on both
storm and sanitary sewers.
Now if we will all pull together,
spend some money on permanent inl-
provements, and less on useless things,
we can make Stanhope one Of the best
little towns in central Iowa.

QUICKEST STARTER
LIKELY 1872 VICTOR
Ehortness Of Games Makes
Coming Title Tourney a
Gamble, Says Daily.
ny THOMAS J. GALLAGHER.

what do you think OF the champion
ship tournament" asked Charlie 1ennes
yesterday OF Maurice DAILY. who an
swered: Its a gamble. The games
are only 400 points and. without consid-
ering Roger Cont. there are four play
ers. each Of whom may make that man,
points in from two to five innings
Hoppe. Schaefer. Horemans and Cochran
are at any time liable to run two or
three hundred.
"The quickest starter will have the
best chance" continued Daily. For that
reason l believe Hoppe Is likely to win.
He Is a quick starter. But 1t does not
follow that any one of the four players
! have named will win by getting an
early lead. Each will be in sight at all
stages. None will be safe until he has
made the last point. Players who can
make runs OF 200 points and averages
Of from 40 to 100 In short games are
always dangerous.
THAT yong Frenchman, Cont, may
cause trouble. I saw him make a few
shots and am convinced he knows the
game He showed me he Is a good po-
eition player and a master of the masse.
j asked him what his system was and he
told me he had no system. that he mad.
points wherever he could. lf he lacks
system he will be at a disadvantage.
"The strength OF 1872 balkline of to-
day is In the systems mastered by lead
ing players. First class players of the
present time don't execute any better
than players of the past. but they man
nge better. Even without a system
Cont IL capable OF big runs. A few
nights ago a Belgian named Haardt told
fne that in Paris. In July. he saw Cont

TO DARKEN HAIR
 APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its Ma tural Color, Gloss and
 Attractiveness

Common garden sage Drewed into ! heavy tea with sulphur added will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. lust few applications will prove revelation if your hair is fading, treaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, hough, is troublesome. An easier Hay is to get bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at ny drug store all ready for use This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients.
 While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and at- tractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.

WRECKED OIL TANKER
 ATLAS ENROUTE SOUTH
 UNDER HER OWN STEAM

After having been patched up at the Standard Oil dock at Ketchikan the tanker Atlas that went aground at Snow Pass near Zarembo Island on December 20 left for San Fran cisco under her own steam on Jan uary 1.
 The leaks in the big ship were stopped up by barricades of wood and other materials held in place by settings of concrete. Tons of water were pumped out of the var ious compartments of the vessel Almost two thirds of an estimated cargo of 100000 gallons of gasoline and oils were discharged at Ketchi- Ian. The other third of the cargo, valued at $90,000, was lost when the Atlas hit the reef and three ot her tanks damaged.
 Capt c. s. Sullivan, master of the Atlas, is taking the vessel to San Franciso and will place her in dry dock. It is expected 1t will be three or four months before repairs will be completed and she is back on the run.
