IOWA CITY, In., Mnrch 1 1. (Special.)
Students of tho University of Iowa nro
thoroughly enraged at tho alleged sending by
tho Unlvorslty of Minnesota Debating lenguo
of their secretary, Guy L. Caldwell, to spy
upon Iowa's preliminary debate. Tho ques
tion dubated at tho preliminary was to bo
debated with Minnesota next May. It was
noticed In tho course of tho debate that a
stranger had blundered to a seat in the sec
tion reserved for tho Irving Literary so
ciety. When seen copying tho charts and
diagrams nnd taking notes of the debaters'
arguments ho was questioned by those sit
ting near him. Ho replied that ho was re
porting for n Chicago newspaper. When
leaving the hall shortly before the closo of
tho dobato he was followed by Bevcral tus
plclous students. At tho door ho. broko Into
n run, but was captured before reaching his
hotel. When called upon to surrender his
notes ho at first .produced a blank notebook,
but.Tater surrendered his notes. Iowa will
refuse to - debato . with Minnesota on tho
original question and will probably refuse
a dobato this year on any question. The
alleged spy was fully Identified as Guy L.
Caldwell, secretary of tho Minnesota Debat
ing league.

UoV. Father K. J. McLaughlin, mentioned
as a possible successor to the Into Arch

of his church. Ho Is pernonnlly a popular
man and has done a great work for Clinton.

since that time has buPt a church which
cost between JC0.000 nnd $70,000. nnd U
parochial residence which cost $15,000, be
sides a school that cost $8,000. There Is
good reason to believe that if he does not
receive this nppolntment he will not be
forgotten by Home when tho diocese Is
divided, and will then be numeil as tho
bishop of tho new sen. Father McLaughlin
Is a man of striking appearance nnd ono
wljo will attract attention at any place nnd

I have used one bottle of the Wine of Cardul and one package of the Black-Draught, and it has done me good. Before
starting to use it, I was not able to do any of my housework: without a pain, and now I can do most any kind of work and
never feel a pain. It did me all the good in the world.
I cannot help but to give it praise. I will never be without it in my house again. I want one more $1.00 bottle and a
25c package of Black-Draught. GEORGIANA REED.
Wine of Canlui did for Mrs. Georgiana Reed what nothing else could do. It transformed the suffer
ing, disconsolate sufferer into a strong, grateful woman,-who not only rejoices in good health, hut delights
that she can do all her housework without pain. Of such a cure as that any physician might he proud.
Wine of Cardui has even more remarkable cures than Mrs. Reed's to its credit. Thousands of despondent
and chronic sufferers who regarded suffering as a duty of their sex have experienced the comfort and joy of
health by taking Wine of Cardui. They have realized that the terrible distresses neglectful women suffer
are unnecessary whsn wim nf Carrlm
