Abrams, field superintends ent for the Iowa Anti-Saloon League, who is at present working in this city and vicinity, was asked today as to the progress of the case in the supreme cotirt on which the validity .of the mulct petitions in Marshalltown, Des Moines and other cities of the state is attacked- Mr- Abrams said a decision was expect- ed at the present term or the court, and that it might be handed down at any time within the next four weeks. The case in question is one appealed by the Anti-Saloon League from Dee Moines, and in which Judge Bishop ruled against the league in its conten- tion that certain of the mulct petitions of several cities were illegal in that the technical requirements of the law had not been met. Rev. Abrams expresses himself as confident that the court will uphold the league in its cohtentlon. Provided the mulct petitions are de- clared invalid, Rev. Abrams and the league have a plan which they think will forestall the' securing of new peti- tions in some places, and of which he asked the T.-R. to tell the people. It is a sort of "blacklist." He says that the names on the new petitions will be pub lished by the league and they will be classified into groups giving each man's church affiliations, if he has any, and other facts. For Instance the Methodist signers will be given a place in one group, the Christians another, and so on down the list. In Just what manner these names will be published Rev. Abrams did not say, but it is presumed that if the newspapers refuse to devote the. neecssary space, circulars will be printed and scattered broadcast. Of course the object hoped to be thus attained is to discourage people from going on record as in favor of the mulct saloon. While those of decided convic- tions would probably not hesitate to place those convictions on record, the threat to print the names might deter some from signing the petitions, and would probably result in the failure of the saloonists to secure the requisite number of names in the smaller cities, where public sentiment is about equally divided as between prohibition and mulct saloons. AMUSEMENTS.,' Return of William Owen and Excel- lent Company. Mr. William Owen, one of the prom- ising and rising young actors of the present day, who has many friends in Marshalltown, opened an engagement at the Odeon last night. Either because of the unfamlliarlty of Marshalltown theater goers with the play presented or 'because they preferred something lowers. Work /or funerals, " weddings"! heavier, the audience was not parties, and ln^fnct furnish Jjowera for as large as it should have been. David Garrlck, an old English comedy that Nat Goodwin made popular in this country, was the bill, and it was ex- cellently presented and admirably staged. Mr. Owen was given a curtain call. H1b leading support this year Is the same as last season, and includes Mr. J. W. McConnell, Mr. J. D. Dell, Miss Camilla Reynolds, Miss Eugenie Du Bois and several others of almost equal merit. Preceding the regular bill last even- ing Mr. Owen gave the closet scene from Hamlet, thus proving the young man's versatility In both the tragic: and romantic. In the closet scene Mr. Owen was assisted by Miss Du Bois as Queen Gertrude, J. W. McConnell as the ghost of Hamlet's father and Alex Majors, Jr., as Polonious. r OBITUARY. GEORGE GISH MARRIED.

Miss Hattle Johnson, the 16-year-old daughter of Mrs. Oerena Johnson, died Monday a little before midnight at the home of her sister, Mrs. Charles E. Crltchfleld, on South street. Miss Johnson resided with her mother at Dunbar, but they had been in the city caring for Mrs. Crltchfleld, who had been ill with the fever. On her recov- ery, her sister, who had been nursing her, was taken with the same disease. She had been ill for six weeks before her death. A sad feature in connec- tion with this death is the fact that another member of the family has been stricken with the same disease. Mr. Ell Johnson, who recently returned home to Cushion after spending a month here caring for his sister, is lying very low and ft telegram was re- ceived by his mother Monday stating that he was dying and advising her to come at once. The deceased, besides her mother, her sister and' brother mentioned, leaves a sister, Mrs. Louise Selvog, and Ave brothers, Messrs. John, Benjamin, Cornelius, Julius and George Johnson, all of this city. The funeral will be held Wednesday afternon at 2 o'clock at Stavanger. Ileal Estate Transfers. Theodore A.

His name la JamqB Wilson and he was passing through Cedar Rapids en route from northen Minnesota to Marshalltown. About ten minute* after 19 o'clock last night he New ideas and Improvements are springing up every day. This is as true of the printing trade as of any other, and especially of the job printing busi- ness. There are few persons, if any who do not admire an artistic piece of job printing, a dainty letter head, en- velope, calling card or anything else In that line. If they only knew it they could just as well have the best work for the same price that they are asked for the inferior grades, and if they do not get It perhaps It is because they have not found the right place. One of the best equipped job printing offices In the state is that of Austin & Am- blad, who are located over 24 West Main street. They have two new Chandler & Price improved Gordon jobbers, one of which was placed in position this week. A three-horse pow- er motor has been added which greatly facilitates the work. The motor is the latest improved pattern. A new line of job type has been purchased, and in addition to what they already had on hanjl equips the office in first-class style with all materials necessary to do fine work. Their stock of paper, en velopes, visiting cards and everything expected to be found in an up-to-date job office is the best that can be bought. With all new material and a complete stock of stationery, the public can readily see that Austin & Amblad are In a position to do your work promptly artistically and at prices that will ad- mit of your using the best stationery for the same money as you would pay for cheaper grades. Messrs. Austin & Amblad are both well known in this city, in fact are Marshalltown boys, and they have built up a lucrative and growing business by methods that will bring success to any" firm—good mate- rial, excellent workmanship, prompt attention to the wants of their patrons and progressive methods. In order to keep up with the improvements that are being made in the printing business new material must be purchased fre- quently, and that Is what Austin & Amblad propose to do. If you want.a neat job of printing done take it to the Hawkeye office, over 34 West Main, and you will get just what you want, and in the neatest possible style. As the result of complaints that the C. & N. W. Railway Company was stealing a whole street in the south- east portion of the city, the force of workmen engaged in making excava- tions and preparing to lay more tracks was arrested Monday evening and the work was temporarily stopped. The men were arrested at 6 o'clock by Mar- shal Jones under a blanket information charging "John Jones and others" with obstructing the public streets. The street where the work is in prog- ress Is Halls, a street running east from Sixth avenue and three and one- half blocks in length. The Northwest- ern owns right of way on both sides ol the thoroughfare and has one track abutting the street on the north. The company is preparing to lay tracks in the street, and had done considerable work thereon when the men were ar- rested. The latter were not jailed, but were notified to appear in the mayor's court at 9 o'clock this morning. At that time Agent F. H. Garvin and others of the Northwestern officials ap- peared and the matter was satisfactor- ily adjusted. The railway company was able to show that it had the right to lay two tracks on the street, as this privi- lege was obtained in 1S91, when, for a consideration of $1,300 in cash and the deed to a portion of a lot on the north side of the street, an ordinance was passed by the city coun- cil giving the railroad right of way for one or more tracks. A resolution limited this right to two tracks, which, Mr. Garvin says, is all the company was planning to lay. He says the complaint was evidently lodged on the theory that the company was trying to monopolize the whole street and not leave enough room for a driveway, but this was not the inten- tion. While the city records show that the deed for the lot and the money were tendered, the deed WHS never filed for record and never reached the hands of the city clerk. What has become of it is not known, but Mr. Garvin says the company has since looked upon the lot as city property and has never made claim to its ownership. He says fur- ther that a new deed will be given if ii is desired. storms the wares dash against tbe totter, but this was my first actual experience of Minot's ledge "taking on a sea." To understand just what that means you must know that Minot's ledge light- house is built on a rock that is under wa- ter and that, excepting at extreme low tide, the gray granite tower is entirely surrounded by water. It is the American "Eddystone," but if anything it is more exposed than that famous light off the I English coast. Outlying ledges some-' what protect the Eddystone from heavy ' seas, and the rock 011 which it stands is above water in nil tides, so that it offers a better foundation than Minot's. This latter hns no protection against the full sweep of a northeaster except a ledge known as the outer Minot, and this iB en-1 tirely submerged at high tide. The crash which made me start was re- peated again and again during the night, as wave after wave swept in and broke against the tower, lu heavy storms there are times when from the shore, some miles distant, Minot's ledge lighthouse seems to he buried by the sea. The waves strike the tower about 20 feet above the base and send tons of spray as high as 2~> feet above tjie dome. The mass of water then comes crashing down upon the lantern and, streaming over it. falls like a cataract into the ocean. The lifeboat, which hangs from this parapet. 80 feet above the sea, would be dashed to pieces if it were on the weather side. Even where it hangs now. partly protect- ed by the tower, it would probably be broken by the cataract if the plugs were not drawn from its bottom to allow the water to run out freely. a ;, wwnan's MpMnare No woman's happiness can be complete without children s it Is her nature to lpve and want them.

Alaska, paper tells in rhyme, from the pen nf a miner named J. U. Charters, how Dell McCord, of this city, who has a government mail con- tract, beat another carrier named "Windy Jim" in a race over the trails. The poem is as follows: On board the steamer Robert Kerr, 'twas March 6, Appeared a chap from Koyukuk, the subject of my rhyme. He had a chum, a stalwart pard. to go outside with him: The other one. an old-time sport, and known as "Windy Jim." The crew upon the steamer Kerr were startled by a roar, Like unto a cyclone, that shook the ice from shore to shore: As each man rushed to the boatside to ascertain the din, He met the forms of the stalwart pard and fabricating- Jim. •- Jim told of great feats he performed upon the icy trail, He macfe sometimes a hundred miles when other good men fail. He spoke of great things that he did in days that have gone by. But there I know, and so do you, that Windy Jim might lie. But Jim has found his match at last for speed upon the trail. In Dell McCord, the Iowa lad, who car- ries U. S. mail. Jim left his camp in early morning, at the hour of four, To Circle City he did head, some forty miles or more. The sky was clear, the trail was good; he went off with a yell; But Jim was slow, so had no show and was beaten in by Dell. ; When Jim was a chichako shy, he never told a fib; But now whene'er he tells the truth, he makes it awful big, As any sour-dough miner would and think it was no sin. So when the truth is stretched some- what, we say it sminds like Jim! Jim says he goes to Washington, and there he'll tell a tale To the postmaster general, regarding Yukon mall. I hope the contract Jim secures to bring our letters In; I'm sure he's honest, will do right, al- though he's Windy Jim. . .i mil > frs railway company has been i jg| > *wj called for tonight, at which plans for ; -g| co-operation will be discussed.

Mr. Gustav Kobbe spent n winter night in the lighthouse 011 Minot's ledge lighthouse and g«t a vivid impression of the exposed situation of the famous bea- con off Cohasset, Muss. This impression he endeavors to convey to readers of St. Nicholas: Crash! I was sitting one February night in the watchroom of Minot's ledge lighthouse, off Cohasset, Mass. With me wus the keeper. We were reading. Suddenly there came a shock ns if the heavy iron doors at the head of the staircase in the tower had swung to. The tower shook from base to dome. The wind roared round the lantern. Droning through it all was the dismal tolling of the tog bell. When that crash came, I gave a start. I thought it was nothing less than some •essel, lost in the tog, crashing on the ledge. But the keeper went on reading Quietly. "What was that?" I finally asked. "Oh." he said, "sbe'a just taking on a Kl." He had told before how ia great centers in tbe cerebellum, medulla and + spinal cord. J " "In smail doses it quickens the ac- 4. tivity of the heart and raises arterial J tension.

Languor, rest- lessness and prostration follow as a re- sult iu the system when the habit of its continuance is acquired. This is fol- lowed by muscular tremor and some- times dizziness, with nervous dyspepsia and insomnia; in fact, a train of de- pressing ails frequently not traceable to the beverage, which never inebri- ates, but is in reality the source." The gentleman concludes his long and very interesting paper on the sub- ject with the statement. "Companies similar to that of the Postum Cereal Company, Limited, of Battle Creek, are to be multiplied and stand as benefac- tors of the race. Whatever our per- sonal preferences, let us not class these changes in dietary to peculiar views and theories, bpt rather as generally recognized and accepted' truths, a valu- able acquisition of progress and inves- tigation, scientific and philanthropic." The rapid pace lived by American brain-workers has forced' them to seek food and drink that quickly and surely rebuild the exhausted energies, and such people as a rule feel the disastrous effects of a continued use of coffee.

Moines, and in which Judge Bishop ruled against the league in its conten­tion that certain of the mulct petitions of several cities were illegal in that the technical requirements of the law had not been met. Rev. Abrams expresses himself as confident that the court will uphold the league in its cohtentlon.

Provided the mulct petitions are de­clared invalid, Rev. Abrams and the league have a plan which they think will forestall the' securing of new peti­tions in some places, and of which he asked the T.-R. to tell the people. It is a sort of "blacklist." He says that the names on the new petitions will be pub lished by the league and they will be classified into groups giving each man's church affiliations, if he has any, and other facts. For Instance the Methodist signers will be given a place in one group, the Christians another, and so on down the list. In Just what manner these names will be published Rev. Abrams did not say, but it is presumed that if the newspapers refuse to devote the. neecssary space, circulars will be printed and scattered broadcast.

Of course the object hoped to be thus attained is to discourage people from going on record as in favor of the mulct saloon. While those of decided convic­tions would probably not hesitate to place those convictions on record, the threat to print the names might deter some from signing the petitions, and would probably result in the failure of the saloonists to secure the requisite number of names in the smaller cities, where public sentiment is about equally divided as between prohibition and mulct saloons.

AMUSEMENTS.,' Return of William Owen and Excel­

lent Company. Mr. William Owen, one of the prom­

ising and rising young actors of the present day, who has many friends in Marshalltown, opened an engagement at the Odeon last night. Either because of the unfamlliarlty of Marshalltown theater goers with the play presented or 'because they preferred something

lowers. Work /or funerals, " weddings"! heavier, the audience was not parties, and ln^fnct furnish Jjowera for • as large as it should have been. David

Garrlck, an old English comedy that Nat Goodwin made popular in this country, was the bill, and it was ex­cellently presented and admirably staged. Mr. Owen was given a curtain call. H1b leading support this year Is the same as last season, and includes Mr. J. W. McConnell, Mr. J. D. Dell, Miss Camilla Reynolds, Miss Eugenie Du Bois and several others of almost equal merit.

Preceding the regular bill last even­ing Mr. Owen gave the closet scene from Hamlet, thus proving the young man's versatility In both the tragic: and romantic. In the closet scene Mr. Owen was assisted by Miss Du Bois as Queen Gertrude, J. W. McConnell as the ghost of Hamlet's father and Alex Majors, Jr., as Polonious. r •

Johnson. Miss Hattle Johnson, the 16-year-old

daughter of Mrs. Oerena Johnson, died Monday a little before midnight at the home of her sister, Mrs. Charles E. Crltchfleld, on South street. Miss Johnson resided with her mother at Dunbar, but they had been in the city caring for Mrs. Crltchfleld, who had been ill with the fever. On her recov­ery, her sister, who had been nursing her, was taken with the same disease. She had been ill for six weeks before her death. A sad feature in connec­tion with this death is the fact that another member of the family has been stricken with the same disease. Mr. Ell Johnson, who recently returned home to Cushion after spending a month here caring for his sister, is lying very low and ft telegram was re­ceived by his mother Monday stating that he was dying and advising her to come at once. The deceased, besides her mother, her sister and' brother mentioned, leaves a sister, Mrs. Louise Selvog, and Ave brothers, Messrs. John, Benjamin, Cornelius, Julius and George Johnson, all of this city. The funeral will be held Wednesday afternon at 2 o'clock at Stavanger.

New ideas and Improvements are springing up every day. This is as true

of the printing trade as of any other, and especially of the job printing busi­

ness. There are few persons, if any who do not admire an artistic piece of job printing, a dainty letter head, en­

velope, calling card or anything else In that line. If they only knew it they

could just as well have the best work for the same price that they are asked for the inferior grades, and if they do

not get It perhaps It is because they have not found the right place. One of the best equipped job printing offices

In the state is that of Austin & Am­blad, who are located over 24 West Main street. They have two new Chandler & Price improved Gordon jobbers, one of which was placed in position this week. A three-horse pow­er motor has been added which greatly facilitates the work. The motor is the latest improved pattern. A new line of job type has been purchased, and in addition to what they already had on hanjl equips the office in first-class style with all materials necessary to do fine work. Their stock of paper, en velopes, visiting cards and everything expected to be found in an up-to-date job office is the best that can be bought. With all new material and a complete stock of stationery, the public can readily see that Austin & Amblad are In a position to do your work promptly artistically and at prices that will ad­mit of your using the best stationery for the same money as you would pay for cheaper grades. Messrs. Austin & Amblad are both well known in this city, in fact are Marshalltown boys, and they have built up a lucrative and growing business by methods that will bring success to any" firm—good mate­rial, excellent workmanship, prompt attention to the wants of their patrons and progressive methods. In order to keep up with the improvements that are being made in the printing business new material must be purchased fre­quently, and that Is what Austin & Amblad propose to do. If you want.a neat job of printing done take it to the Hawkeye office, over 34 West Main, and you will get just what you want, and in the neatest possible style.

As the result of complaints that the C. & N. W. Railway Company was stealing a whole street in the south­

east portion of the city, the force of workmen engaged in making excava­tions and preparing to lay more tracks was arrested Monday evening and the work was temporarily stopped. The men were arrested at 6 o'clock by Mar­shal Jones under a blanket information charging "John Jones and others" with obstructing the public streets.

The street where the work is in prog­ress Is Halls, a street running east from Sixth avenue and three and one-half blocks in length. The Northwest­ern owns right of way on both sides ol the thoroughfare and has one track abutting the street on the north. The company is preparing to lay tracks in the street, and had done considerable work thereon when the men were ar­rested. The latter were not jailed, but were notified to appear in the mayor's court at 9 o'clock this morning.

At that time Agent F. H. Garvin and others of the Northwestern officials ap­peared and the matter was satisfactor­ily adjusted. The railway company was able to show that it had the right to lay two tracks on the street, as this privi­lege was obtained in 1S91, when, for a consideration of $1,300 in cash and the deed to a portion of a lot on the north side of the street, an ordinance was passed by the city coun­cil giving the railroad right of way for one or more tracks. A resolution limited this right to two tracks, which, Mr. Garvin says, is all the company was planning to lay. He says the complaint was evidently lodged on the theory that the company was trying to monopolize the whole street and not leave enough room for a driveway, but this was not the inten­tion.

While the city records show that the deed for the lot and the money were tendered, the deed WHS never filed for record and never reached the hands of the city clerk. What has become of it is not known, but Mr. Garvin says the company has since looked upon the lot as city property and has never made claim to its ownership. He says fur­ther that a new deed will be given if ii is desired.

storms the wares dash against tbe totter, but this was my first actual experience of Minot's ledge "taking on a sea."

To understand just what that means you must know that Minot's ledge light­house is built on a rock that is under wa­ter and that, excepting at extreme low tide, the gray granite tower is entirely surrounded by water. It is the American "Eddystone," but if anything it is more exposed than that famous light off the I English coast. Outlying ledges some-' what protect the Eddystone from heavy ' seas, and the rock 011 which it stands is above water in nil tides, so that it offers a better foundation than Minot's. This latter hns no protection against the full sweep of a northeaster except a ledge known as the outer Minot, and this iB en-1 tirely submerged at high tide.

The crash which made me start was re­peated again and again during the night, as wave after wave swept in and broke against the tower, lu heavy storms there are times when from the shore, some miles distant, Minot's ledge lighthouse seems to he buried by the sea. The waves strike the tower about 20 feet above the base and send tons of spray as high as 2~> feet above tjie dome. The mass of water then comes crashing down upon the lantern and, streaming over it. falls like a cataract into the ocean. The lifeboat, which hangs from this parapet. 80 feet above the sea, would be dashed to pieces if it were on the weather side. Even where it hangs now. partly protect­ed by the tower, it would probably be broken by the cataract if the plugs were not drawn from its bottom to allow the water to run out freely. a ;,

Dell McCord, of This City. Made No­torious by S-wllt Walk Over the Trails. A Circle City. Alaska, paper tells in

rhyme, from the pen nf a miner named J. U. Charters, how Dell McCord, of this city, who has a government mail con­tract, beat another carrier named "Windy Jim" in a race over the trails. The poem is as follows:

On board the steamer Robert Kerr, ' twas March 6,

Appeared a chap from Koyukuk, the subject of my rhyme.

He had a chum, a stalwart pard. to go outside with him:

The other one. an old-time sport, and known as "Windy Jim."

The crew upon the steamer Kerr were startled by a roar,

Like unto a cyclone, that shook the ice from shore to shore:

As each man rushed to the boatside to ascertain the din,

He met the forms of the stalwart pard and fabricating- Jim. •-

Jim told of great feats he performed upon the icy trail,

He macfe sometimes a hundred miles when other good men fail.

He spoke of great things that he did in days that have gone by.

But there I know, and so do you, that Windy Jim might lie.

But Jim has found his match at last for speed upon the trail.

In Dell McCord, the Iowa lad, who car­ries U. S. mail.

Jim left his camp in early morning, at the hour of four,

To Circle City he did head, some forty miles or more.

The sky was clear, the trail was good; he went off with a yell;

But Jim was slow, so had no show and was beaten in by Dell. ;

When Jim was a chichako shy, he never told a fib;

But now whene'er he tells the truth, he makes it awful big,

As any sour-dough miner would and think it was no sin.

So when the truth is stretched some­what, we say it sminds like Jim!

Jim says he goes to Washington, and there he'll tell a tale

To the postmaster general, regarding Yukon mall.

I hope the contract Jim secures to bring our letters In;

I 'm sure he's honest, will do right, al­though he's Windy Jim.

ON MINOT'S LEDGE.

Tons of Spray Dnxh Over the Very Dome of the Famous Lighthouse.

Mr. Gustav Kobbe spent n winter night in the lighthouse 011 Minot's ledge lighthouse and g«t a vivid impression of the exposed situation of the famous bea­con off Cohasset, Muss. This impression he endeavors to convey to readers of St. Nicholas:

Crash! I was sitting one February night in the

watchroom of Minot's ledge lighthouse, off Cohasset, Mass. With me wus the keeper. We were reading. Suddenly there came a shock ns if the heavy iron doors at the head of the staircase in the tower had swung to. The tower shook from base to dome. The wind roared round the lantern. Droning through it all was the dismal tolling of the tog bell.

When that crash came, I gave a start. I thought it was nothing less than some •essel, lost in the tog, crashing on the ledge. But the keeper went on reading Quietly. "What was that?" I finally asked.

"Oh." he said, "sbe'a just taking on a Kl."

He had told before how ia great

centers in tbe cerebellum, medulla and + spinal cord. J

" "In smail doses it quickens the ac- 4. tivity of the heart and raises arterial J tension. Larger doses often over- X stimulate the cerebral circulation, i •}• causing great heaviness' of the head. ! j / tlashe.s of light before the eyes, insom- 4* nia, restlessness and even delirium. Ad- + ministered in sutlieient quantity, it j j . would doubtless prove fatal to man.' j

"To thousands of people coffee, of f J which caffeine is its chemical structure, is therefore a poison. Languor, rest­lessness and prostration follow as a re­sult iu the system when the habit of its continuance is acquired. This is fol­lowed by muscular tremor and some­times dizziness, with nervous dyspepsia and insomnia; in fact, a train of de­pressing ails frequently not traceable to the beverage, which never inebri-ates, but is in reality the source."

The gentleman concludes his long and very interesting paper on the sub­ject with the statement. "Companies similar to that of the Postum Cereal Company, Limited, of Battle Creek, are to be multiplied and stand as benefac­tors of the race. Whatever our per­sonal preferences, let us not class these changes in dietary to peculiar views and theories, bpt rather as generally recognized and accepted' truths, a valu­able acquisition of progress and inves­tigation, scientific and philanthropic."

The rapid pace lived by American brain-workers has forced' them to seek food and drink that quickly and surely rebuild the exhausted energies, and such people as a rule feel the disastrous effects of a continued use of coffee. It Is to furnish this classi of people with correct food and drink, selected and manufactured in the most scientific manner, that Postum Cereal Food Cof­fee and Grape-Nuts have been placed on the market. All ftrst-class grocers furnish these.
