and his wife followed him, trying
to subdue the flames, and in doing
so she was severely burned about
the hands. When the unfortunate

A DUTY of the Rich

A foolish New York woman has
paid 100000 for a fur coat. She is
foolish, in the first place, because
no coat in the world can possibly be
worth such a sum; in the second
place, because such things arouse
envy and discomfort and so rock the
social boat. A state of society in
which those who never earned dol
lar in their lives buy 100000 Goats
and ride in $4,000 automobiles is
open to criticism; those who have
the best of the unnatural condition
should be the most careful about ex-
citing dangerous criticism. Such oc-
currences are the life of socialism,
communism and bolshevism, which
oppose the system that has resulted
in the 100000 coats.-Knoxville Ex-
press.

A New HOldup Scheme

Osceola, Iowa--At O'clock on a
recent morning, Clint Wilson his wife
and two sons, Gerald, Is, and Clar-
ence, 16, left Osceola for motor trip
to Red Oak, with the understanding
that they would pick up Mr.. Wilson's
brother, Nelse, at Creston, and re-
turn him that evening. Though it
was not yet daylight, the beautiful
day was pretended by the hours pre-
ceeding dawn. Everything went well
until Mr.. Wilson and family reached
the Helms bridge about mile east
of Alton, where they had a surprise
they will not soon forget. On the
bridge by the light of the automo-
bile Mr.. Wilson saw little heap of
what he assumed to be dirt When
the car wheel struck this seemingly
harmless object there was an explo-
sion that fairly lifted the car from
the ground. Recognizing that the
upheavel was not caused by any part
of the car breaking, Clint stepped on
the gas, when as if shot by cannon
an iron bar struck the side of the car
with terrific force, and man ap-
peared in the darkness behind the
rapidly moving car, which hastened
on ACROSS the little valley and up the
next hill at forty mile clip. Autos

to be regretted that Mr.. Wilson con-

the officers at Alton or Creston, for
the would-be hold up man and his
pals, who were probably beneath the
bridge, might have been captured.

JUDGE REED RETIRES
Fine Testimonial Given to Federal
Judge on His Retirement.

An eloquent but simple eulogy or
the retirement from the United
States district court bench of Fed
eral Judge Henry L. Reed was sub
scribeG by a committee of the Du-
buque County Bar Association Thurs
day and ordered spread on the re-
cord.
1t vas the occasion of the last
term OF court presided over by
Judge Reed, who left fer Cresco, his
home, Thursday afternoon. The
testimonial was as follows:

STATE fpg TIE northern district Of

z A Testimonial
Early in 1904, President Roosevelt
sent to the senate of the United
States the name of Hon. Henry T.
Reed of Cresco, Iowa, as judge Of
the district court of the United
States, for the Northern District of
Iowa. The appointment was at once
confirmed and on the first Tuesday
of April, of that year, Judge Reed
opened his first term of court at
Cedar Rapids. During the period
between that. date and the present
he has presided over this court with
an ability, courtesy and geniality
that has met the universal approval
of the members of the bar who have
been brought in touch with his ju-
dicial work. A large proportion of
the lawyers in the Northern Iowa
district who practice in the Federal
court, have never known any United
States Judge but him, and the an
nouncement of his retirement comes
to them as a distinct shock. The
eighteen years of harmonious rela-
tions between him and them have
not prepared them for his retire
ment, but the reverse, rather.
Probably with the bar of no other
county in his district has Judge Reed
since his appointment, been brought
into closer official and personal re-
lations than with that of Dubuque,
and It's members cannot permit the
occasion Of his retirement from the
bench 10 pass without a formal ex-
preston of their high regard for
him, as a man and citizen, their
approval of his record and career
as judge, and their regret at his
retirement from the bench, and, at
a recent meeting, they directed the
undersigned to prepare and present
this testimonial to the court, and
to move that it be spread on its re-
cords.

A SPOT AGAINST THE SKY.
1T must be the King, surely he is
coming. Let's call all Of the dwellers'
of the forest together and go at n
to the edge OF the forest Major Pole
Cat was all beside himself. The
thought Of the Kings return with a
creature who might prove harmful,
had excited him.
"All right here we go. Call the Rat
of the Palace and the other creatures.
Tell Jack the Rabbit tt tell everyone
he sees hat the King is coming and
we're all to meet him at the edge of
the forest" Chief Perky started away
for he was such a slow traveller that
it was necessary for him to get a good
start or he would not get there in
time.
Major Pole Cat SEM Jack the Rabz
bit on his way to meet the creature Of
the forest and tell them about the
Kings arrival. I tell you thai Jack
travelled some too, especially SO since
he was getting anxious to see the fell
low the King would bring with him.
He found Billy Mink n Mr.. Chuck,
but neither Of them wanted to be-
lieve that the, King was coming for
was to his coming to the
forest dwellers.
o see they still remembered the
things that Jerry had told them the
year before, and some Of those things
were not true. But they decided to
50 to the edge Of the forest and see.
for they wanted to e the king, and
it didn't make any difference who
told them about It just so it was true.
They washed their faces and 2mooth-
ed down their hair and started away
anxious to see Tinker Rob.
The next fellow to meet Jack the
Rabbit was Sammy Squirrel. Said
he: II don't think the King is COM
ing. I think it is another trick of that
Jay bird, for he is always foolins the
forest creatures"
you had better come and see for
you would feel sorry If 1t happened
to be the King and you were the only
dweller of the forest not on hand"
