NEGRO INVENTOR HERE There arrived in our city, last Sunday morning, the inventor and patentee of one of the most wonderful inventions of this age of great inventions in the person of Mr C S L Baker, Mr. Baker is the inventor and patentee of the Friction Heater and the Super-Heating Union. He hold the controlling interests in the Friction Heater Company capitalized at $125,000 and the Baker Revolutionizing Super-Heating Molecules Union Developing company Capital $150,000 both fully paid and non-saleable. Mr. Baker was to have demonstrated the efficiency of his invention on the street cars of our city last January but owing to the rush of business the company is now doing he was unable to come here last January, he shipped one of his Friction Heaters here about January 1st and it was to look it on, preparatory to shipping it with a cartoid of other Heaters and apparatus from St. Joe to the James town Exposition, where he will exhibit his marvelous invention. He is to operate a coffee-stand where he will serve coffee made by his friction heater; he will give a button souvenir with each cup of coffee sold, he has employed 22 girls to serve coffee during the expiration. He will leave St Joseph, Mo, for Jamestown, Tuesday April 16th, and promised to either come himself, or send Mr. Coleman, one of his assistants to Des Moines, sometime next fall to make a public demonstration, at a small admission fee, the proceeds of which will go to some Negro church or churches here. Mr Baker is a quite unassuming man, forty five years old and well preserved, he is thoroughly conscious of the commercial value of his invention a fact of which we are proud, as usual invasive genius and business ability are foreign to one man, Mr. Baker says he finds more doubt among his own people as to the efficiency of his Heater, than he does among scientific men and capitalists. He has simply applied the principles of science in an unthought of way and has obtained results that are almost unbelievable, he can with his invention, heat a railway passenger coach without using an ounce of fuel, obtaining the motive power necessary to run his Friction Heater from the revolutions of the axle of the trucks beneath the coach; he can go into a new building when $5,000 and $6,000 worth of steam pipes are required and by using only 89 feet of pipe, heat the building with his Friction Heater. Mr. Baker has 5,000 shares of stock that he will offer for sale at the Jamestown Exposition, the price of the stock is $30.00 per share. The Friction Heater Company is expecting to place some of its heaters here in the near future, probably this fall, if so it will employ at least ten men to look after installing heaters and collecting rentals. Mr. Baker is a distant relative of Mr. J.C. Williams, junior of Cooper School LOOKING WELL Thus writes Rev. O. W. Gatlin, Pella Iowa, Pella, Is. August 10, 1905. To Whom it May Coner: This is to certify that I am "looking" better than I did three months ago, and that it is all because I am "looking" through glasses fitted to my eyes by Dr. Lew Arntz of Des Moines, opposite the street car station. Now this is no joke: I have tried several years to get the help I needed for my eyes, once in Fairflied, one in Burlington, twice in Chicago. It would take $75 to foot the bills all told. Each time I was told that all had been done that could be, but it I have met them and seen their need of help. I take this way to tell many more whom I may not see until it be too late to help them, or perhaps, not at all. I would rather have Dr Lew Arntz's ability to help the human vision than to be a millionaire. It is a fortune in itself besides in its use it scatters blessings on every side. If you have any trouble with your eyes no matter what it is, remember it will cost you nothing to have him examine them and that he will tell you just what can be done and will do it. if you give him a chance. I find him very reasonable in his charges. Remember he does more then merely like a pair of glasses; it may man a number of them as he develops your vision. You may be sure I am glad that my experience will let me say these things and I ask my friends to take this as a personal letter. Hopefully yours REV. O. W.

FOR THIRTY CRIMES Frank Wedley and Wife Held at Davenport. BURNS CROSS ON FOREHEAD. Cskaloosta Man Outdoors Mediava "FlameJunta." Davenport—in the arrest of Frank Wedley, the colored burglar, and his wife, Leona Wedley, the Davenport police effected the capture of two of the most successful and notorious burglar known in Iowa for years. Attired in men's clothing, Mrs Wedley aided her husband in his work and together they are known to have entered at least thirty houses in this city, including a number of the wealthiest families in Davenport. In a satchel carried by Mrs. Wedley were found a revolver, black-lack and flash light. Wedley, when arrested, had a revolver in each of his hip pockets and over $400 worth of jewelry and silverware poured into an unrecognizable mass, which he offered for sale at a manufacturing jewelry establishment here. Wedley had on two previous occasions sold stuff to the same firm. The bulk of this plunder was stolen at Ottumwa, where Wedley and his wife also shipped it by express to the point and had disposed of. Just what the couple did with the large amount of plunder they secured as a result of their robberies here is not known, but it is a certainty that they immediately shipped it away to some distant point for disposal. One of the homes robbed in Ottumwa is that of Charles Walsh, democratic national committeeman from Iowa. The Wedleys are as fine a looking couple representing the colored race as could be found anywhere. They are of the mulatto stripe and dressed in white, with gold and diamond when arrested and when the house occupied by them in this city was searched to $1,000 worth of silks, satins, lace, jewelry, silverware, etc. were found. All the women were wearing watches, chains, table silverware, souvenir spoons, etc. had been mutilated beyond recognition. WOMAN SOBS ON STAND Famous Sporge Trial is Begun In Davenport. Davenport—Sobbing as she told how surgeons drew from her husband's body a big roll of gauze which she claimed had lain there for fourteen months forgotten and left in the abdominal cavity at the time of a previous operation, Mrs. Johannes Arp, widow of a wealthy farmer, related from the witness stand the story on which she bases her suit for $5,000 against three of the leading surgeons of eastern Iowa. Her husband died soon after the offending sponge was pulled from his body, and she received a certificate that it caused his death. The defendants to the suit are Drs. A. L. Hagebock, J. T. Haller and J. B. Wayhaus, and the medical and legal professions are lined up on the two sides of the case here, for the hottest sight in the history of the district. The defendants charge that Drs. Henry and Carl Matthey, if they found the sponge as described, had themselves left it in Arp's body at an operation they had performed on him. GIRL'S BURNS PROVE FATAL. Nellie Brown, 17 Years Old, Dies Near Elmo as Result of Burns Elma Brown of Birmingham Elma — well-known as a 17-year-old hildeger of Mr. and Mr. Heler Brown living near Lowther, died from the results of burns received a wake ago. She was in the field with her father, who was engaged in cultivating. Noticing some waste burning beside the railroad track a short distance away, she went over and attempted to put the fire out by stamping on it. Her Jerrs caught fire and, becoming frightened, she started to scream and run. This attracted her attention and she was asked for her assistance, but before he could reach she was terribly burned about the thighs, hips and walst. Her arms and neck were also severely burned. Her dress had been almost completely burned from her body. She was quickly summoned, but the extent of the burns was such that recovery was impossible. METHODISTS HELP PRIESTS. Executors of Estate Finish Work of Giving Money to Clerery Iowa Falls.—Six executors of the Methodist faith and two shrewd lawyers have just finished administering an estate of $,000 that was willed to a score of Catholic priests. This centric will was made by William Gallagher of Franklin county, who died a bachelor and provided in his will that his estate should go to the parts of the country and six Methodists were named as executors of the will. These executors called in two attorneys to help them settle the estate and $,4900, the net amount of the legatees. The estate amounted to $7,831 and after paying debts, etc., $,4900 was left. The executors' fees amounted to $216 and the lawyers' fees to $630. Sibley Veteran Takes Own Life. Marshallnawn.—Andrew M. Culver, an inmate of the Soldiers' home from Sibley, jumped from the second story of the Soldiers' home hospital here and died from congestion of the lungs, resulting from broken ribs penetration.

Anamoss.—As a parting gift Jasper Mason, just freed from prison after thirty-one years confinement, has been given a new clock which he had in his cell twenty-three years of his confinement. The clock will now begin ticking on the intermittible hours for Buse as if did Mason, enjoying the sunshine and liberty. Oskaloosa Man Outdoors Mediaeval "Flagellants." Oskaloosa—As a mark of his own sincerity in his belief Dr. Paul Bettix, until the 6th professor of Greek in Central Holiness university, has burned a cross an inch and one-half long and three-quarters of an inch wide on his forehead. The tortures which the flagellants of the middle ages inflicted on themselves, the sufferings of the old crusaders, whom Bettix would imitate in large degree, can have been no worse than the agony endured without a sign of suffering by the ousted professor, as the acid ate into the living flesh. Moreover, this, says Bettix, is but the beginning. All his followers new crusade must mark themselves as have cone "With the sign of the cross." He, himself, explains his relation with the Central Holiness university in the statement, "My resignation was given me today, and I am going to work with you." The great work to which I am called. Bettix was discharged as a result of his self-mutilation and because of the sermon which he preached on March 31, of which the following is: "Brethren, in the name of King Jesus, unfurl today the standard of Christ's own volunteers for the crucise of the twentieth century (or, I, gopee to every creature; I gopee to every postolic consecration; 4. On faith.) "I call for 144,000 apostolic men to evangelize every living soul of our race within the next few years. One of the apostolic souls is devoted to souls. Needed at once, 3,000 apostolic volunteers for South America, 40,000 for China, 33,000 for India, 15,000 for Africa, 12,000 for Russia, etc., to go without scripture nor purse, on the basis of the sermon down in Matthew 10 and Rev. 14, 17. "The mark of our apostolic covenant is the Sign of the Cross indelibly marked on our forehead: (ref. Rev. 14: 1-7, which gives Goel's own testimony by liberal Christ following)." "Now let devils, sinners and professors do their worst, and let us see which side God is on. The war is on. God is on. Halleujah Yours in the Holy War." BLOW FOR LIQUOR MEN Supreme Court Turns Burden of Proof on Them Des Molles—Druggists and saloon-keepers who sell liquor to habitual drunkards may be easily mulled for damages by injured relatives, according to a supreme court decision handed down in a Clay county case. Bistline-Hill, a Clay county family committee, suicides after having become intoxicated on liquors secured from Ney Brothers, druggists at Webb, in that county, according to the claims of the widow, who brought suit for damages against her husband, presided over the trial of the case, ruled that the burden of the proof that Bistline killed himself as the result of his intoxication and not from the murder, but the supreme court reverses this ruling and orders a retrial of the case. "The statute creates a new right of action and to sustain such the injured person is not required to establish all the elements of an injury actionable under the statute, and to give an opinion on the case." "The statute indulges in the reasonable presumption that an act done to the injury of his family by a person whose faculties are abnormally excited can be punished." "The act of a character not ordinarily to be expected from a sane and sober person, is the result of intoxication." It is insisted by the supreme court that the seller of incidences must "personally know" the buyer is not addicted to the liquor habit should be strictly enforced. "If the seller does not know he can refuse to sell," says the opinion, "the seller should know, it is an election on this part to take the chances." WILLOUGHBY ESCAPES. Man Wanted in Des Moines Gives New York Police the Slip. Des Moines.—D. E. Willoughby, wanted by many Des Moines and Mitchellville persons, and especially by the police, who sailed from New York in the nick of time to escape from two policemen who had a warrant for his arrest on charges of embezzlement, filed Jan. 3 in Justice Cope's court. Willoughby was charged with patrons by selling them valuable Colorado lands. Chief of Police Jones and his nephews, who became interested in Willoughby's schemes to the extent of a week after the transaction had been made.

Sutton's wifihalf for the present on account of Jones and Smith being under bond of $1,000 to appear before the grand jury to answer to the charge o burglarizing the West Side library. Seveal hundred school students extended the hearing before Judge Fatal Burns From Benzine. Dubuque - Adela Mielan, aged 22, resting on Kucfardan avenue, was seen in the school glove with benzine. The fluid became ignited, burning her hands, arms, hair and setting fire to her clothing. The seriousness of her burns and the awful fire to her narcissus system makes recovery doubtful. CARE OF THE SICK ROOM. Above All Things the Walls Should Be Kept Dry. When the bedroom becomes a sick room there is an added reason why extreme precautions should be used to keep the room in a thoroughly sanitary condition. Above all things, the bedroom should never be damp. It should be nice and dry always warm and comfortable in winter, cool and airy in summer, and bright and sunny some parts of the day. If there is any anisolcion of dampness in a bedroom it is probably due, if there is wallpaper on the wall, to the absorption of water by the paper which frequently acts as a blotting paper and holds quantities of water in it. The use of wallpaper on walls is to be depleted. It means disease, ill health and unhappiness. It is frequently the cause of lung trouble, not only because of its dampness but also because of its power to retain infection of many kinds. The desired method of treating a bedroom wall is to tint it for the alabastined wall is a perfect wall. It never flakes off, chips or peels. It absorbs moisture and expels it, it opens the pores of the plaster and makes a room livable and breathable. It floor in the bedroom should have light shades and durable rugs that can be easily shaken and a floor that is thoroughly oiled or varnished, that will not absorb moisture. The cracks in the floor should be thoroughly filled and covered. Woodwork in the bedroom should be attended to carefully, window sills should be thoroughly varnished or waxed, and the window casings kept in perfect order. The doors should be wiped off frequently as also the window sills. In the bedroom, as the presence of dust on woodwork is a menace to health as well as an evidence of poor housekeeping. Parisian Champions Barmaids. The Paris Matin says, apropos of the proposal to abolish the British barmaid: "One must have lived through a dull winter's night on the shores of the Thames; one must have looked in the laughing eyes of some waitress for a reflection of the absent blue sky, in order to understand all the horror of the proposal to replace charming barmaids by men." SARSAPARILLA TIME. Make Your Own Sparaparilla or Spring Blood Medicine. Mix one-half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one ounce Compound Kargon, three ounces Compound Syrup Sarapillaria. Shake well in a bottle and take one teaspoonful after meals and again at bedtime. Any good drugist can supply these ingredients. I said to be a splendid Spring Blood Towel innovator because of its gentle action in restoring the Kidneys to normal activity, forcing them to filter from the blood all impure matter and acids, destroying micro-organisms which produce ill health and sour blood. Everyone should take something to cleanse the blood at this time of year, and the above simple prescription is the best way to treat foods of home remedies generally used. Mix this yourself, then you will know what you are taking. WOMEN IN NEW FIELDS British Smart Society Takes to "Hopping"—Woman Veterinary. Work in the hop fields is the latest "rest cure" fad for London's smart set, and the luxurious society "hoppers" claim that a week's hopping is far better and more pleasant than a rest at any well-known health resort. The tents of these well-to-dokkers are expensively furnished, and easy chairs, soft beds and up-to-date camping outfits are among their hopping appliances. There is a woman veterinary surgeon who is an official inspector of animals. She rides through the streets on the lookout for animals suffering from any disablement, and before reporting a horse as unfit for work, she examines its injuries and whenever possible applies remedies to alleviate its pain. She carries a leather case filled with bandages and other surgical appliances. Carnegie Fund Participants.

In the accepted institutions 45 professors have received more than $69,000 and the widows of some professors have been assisted. One-half the accepted colleges are in New England, New York and Pennsylvania, and, with one exception, the entire list lies in the northern belt of states. FIND OUT The Kind of Food That Will Keep You Well. The true way is to find out what is best to eat and drink, and then cultivate a taste for those things instead of poisoning ourselves with improper, indigestible food, etc. A conservative Mass. woman writes: "I have used Grape-Nuts 5 years for the young and for the aged; in sickness and in health, at first following the same diet, I have a variety of ways as my taste and judgment suggested. "But its most special, personal benefit has been a substitute for meat, and served dry with cream when rheumatic troubles made it important for me to give up the 'coffee habit'. "Served in this way with the addition of a cup of hot water and a little fruit it has been used at my morning meal for six months, during which time my health has much improved, nerves have grown steadier, and a sense of well-being has been named by Postum Cereal Co., Ltd.

Mrs. S. A. Moore, proprietor of a restaurant at Waterville, Mo., says: "Before using Doan's Kidney Pills I suffered everything from kidney troubles for a year and a half. I had pain in the back and head, and almost continuous in the loins, way all the time. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills brought great relief, and I kept on taking them until in a short time I was cured. I think Doan's Kidney Pills are wonderful."

Many times did the German emperor press the title of prince upon Herr Von Bulow before the latter would accept. The statesman wanted the title, but could not afford to live up to it. Of this the kaiser knew nothing, of course. At length, about 18 months ago, a relative of Von Bulow died, leaving him $1,350,000. A few days later, he showed the kaiser a note, notices that he was not tune. The monarch grunted, "So that was the reason—my prince," he said, yaying stress on the title. "Why did you not say so before?" SLEEP BROKEN BY ITCHING. Eczema Covered Whole Body for a Year A Year of Eczema Remedies Prove a Success "For a year I have had what they call eczema. I had an itching all over my body, and when I would retire for the night it would keep me awake half the night, and the more I would scratch, the more it would itch. I tried all kinds of remedies, but could get no relief. "I used one cake of Cuticura Soap, one box of Cuticura, and two vials of Cuticura Resolvent Pills, which cost me a dollar and twenty-five cents in all, and am very glad I tried them, for I was completely cured. Walter W. Paglush, 207 N. Robey St., Chicago, Ill., Oct. 8 and 16, 1906." Day of Guillotine Ended. Since the prison of La Rochette, where the French guillotine used to be kept, has been pulled down, the machine of death has been kept in a shed belonging to the state executioner. Since there is no place in Paris where it seems desirable to put up the guillotine, no more executions take place there. The president of the republic gets around the difficulty by commuting the death sentence to imprisonment. Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury.

Notice.—To our correspordents and subscribers in general, for the last 8 or 10 months we have been crowded for space for our news, owing to numerous correspondents from the different towns of the middle west andthe many new towns that are clamoring to have space in our paper, also the many worthy papers, essays and poems often sent for publication and with our limited space each week, that we cannot ac- comodate them all, in fact we have often left out the editorals and race echoes to accomodate our outside news gathers; but many of our readers like to have editorials to read each week, therefore we have decided that we will discontinue our regular correspondents where we have less then ten actual subseribers; news can be sent from ‘those points occasionally. We also ask jour correspondents to condense each article and be brief with your letter. Whooping Cough.
