Well Cook Crlem He 'Would Hntlicr
Die Thnn do There.
There was a scene nt tho court house
yesterday morning when Wells Cook, tho
aged citizen und former prosperous bust
ness man of this city, was Informed that
the commissioners on Insanity had com
mitted him to tho asylum and that Deputy
Shorlff Peterson was ready to convoy him
there,
Tho old mar., whoso hair Is snow white,
with the tears coursing down his furrowed
checks, appealed to those about him not
to allow him to be consigned to a living
tomb. "I am not Insane," ho said, "nnd
tt Is an outrage to send mo to nn asylum,
God knows It will make mo Insane, though."
When Deputy Peterson told tho old man
that tho carriage was waiting to convoy
them to tho depot and for him to put his
overcoat on, Cook clung to tho Iron work
of tho detention room nnd force had to
bo used to remove him. As ho was leaving
tho court house ho turned to those follow
sort of nn agreement at tho meeting hero
as to their general recommendations to tho
legislature. Tho prevailing sentiment among
members Is that tho Iowa legislatures have
neglected the laws rclutlng to municipali
ties, not so much becauao they desired to
do Injustice to tho cities, as that the needs
ot tho cities havo not been presented to
the general assemblies.
No attempt will be mado at this tlmo
to effect a general revision of tho mu
nicipal laws of tho state, although they aro
almost In a hopeless tangle, and In many
respects aro crude and unsatisfactory. The
laws relating to public Improvements need
revision. It Is hard to make public Im
provements under the .present laws without
incurring danger of heavy lawsuits for
damages. Another matter which members
of tho commlttco think needs attention is
that relntlng to tho courts In the cities
nud towns. Tho growth of Iowa cities Is so
comparatively recent that legislation along
that line Is Imperfect.
Tho committee adjourned tonight. The
report will not bo completed until next
winter, hut they will recommend revision,
especially with reference to special assessments.

Thn beet sugar Industry Is growing
throughout tho country," ho said. "The
largest sugar factory In tho world Is at
Sallnus, Cal.. whero 3,000 tons of beets arc
used daily while the factory is in operation.
Thero has been tho largest number of new
factories established tho last year of any
In tho history of tho Industry In this coun
try. Michigan alouo nas eiovcn new iau
torlcs. Last year a number of Iowa farmers
grow beets for factory use. They wero
farraors near Mason City, Clear Lake, Fort
Dodgo nnd Waterloo, nnd they mado con
tracts with the factory at St. Louis Park,
Minn., for the sale of the bcots. Investi
gation showed that theso farmers made
good profit on their crop. In many cases
tho not ptocccda would equal the value of
the land."
Mr. Saylor says ho expects Iowa to pro
duce beets commercially and In time to
havo n largo number of factories, as It
his been demonstrated they will pay all
through this section of the country. Ho
has prepared his annual report, which he
has Just forwarded to Secretary Wilson,
showing tho progress of tho beet sugar
Industry, and this will soon be published
by tho department. Ho will travel dur

Tho state of Iowa Is In for a good deal
of trouble over tho construction of the new
collegiate building at tho Stato university,
which should have been completed before
this time, but Is still far from completion.
This Is tho finest building of the State uni
versity, and now slnco tho two buildings
much used have been burned It Is Impera
tive that the collegiate building shall be
completed In time for use at tho beginning
of next term. The contractor, n Chicago
firm, has been careless and negligent nnd
hns had trouble with subcontractors and
employes, and this week the Board of lie
gents, acting on the ndvlco of tho archi
tects, took tho contract away from tho Arm
and will finish the Job. Tho subcontractors
will contlnuo to work, and the building will
bo rushed to completion. Tho matter of
settlement with tho contractor Is likely to
cnu'so troublo which will lead to lawsultB.
Tho temporary buildings nt tho State uni
versity will bo finished In tlmo for uso ,nt
tbo next term.

, John P. Worrell was killed on a Bsndbnr
In tho Missouri river, nnd whether It Is In
Iowa or Nebraska Is n question to deter
mine. John W. Anderson and George A.
Oliver will appear for the defendant, Frank
Dennis, who Is now In the Monona county
Jail.
A. tho request ot tho Iowa authorities
the county surveyor, Italph Fessenden, has
prepaied a pint of tho river, which shows
tho location of tho sandbar and bunks at
the point where tho body wns discovered.
Tho plat will bo Introduced on the trial and
will not bo mado public until then. The
body was found at low water at a point on
the Nebraska side, but which at high
water Is ncurer tho Iowa bank.
Ills duties In these two capacities are at
times so exacting that ho finds himself
worn out nud In a low nervous condition.
At all such times he confidently turns to
Pnlne's celery compound and has never been
disappointed.
Ho says of this wonderful remedy:
St. Paul, Fob. 16, 1901.
"Dear Sirs I havo been familiar with tho
merits of Poino's celery compound for n
number of years, and havo used It when
seriously 'run down' from overwork, both
mentally and physically. But Its good
qualities never appealed to mo so forcibly
as during tho last campaign. Tho hard
work devolving upon me, ns Secretary of
tbo Stato Central Committee, affected my
nerves greatly nnd mode It difficult for me
Pnlno's celery compound Immedi
ately restored tho tone of my nervous sys
tem and enabled ma to secure refreshing
sleep.
It benefited mo nt once, and I-do not
hesltato to recommend It to my friends
who find themselves In tho same nervous
condition.
"Very-truly yours,
Chas, C. Whitney."
Paine's celery compound marks u tremen
dous strldo In tho cure of disease. No other
remedy has ever succeeded In driving out
tho underlying causes of nervous and or-
gunlo trouble so surely nnd rnpldly. No
remedy represents so comprchenslvo n
knowledge of nervous exhnustlon aud the
best means for Its alleviation,
It euros where other remedies bocauM
they nro cither silly nostrums or well
meaning but old-fashioned and Ignorant
preparations hnvo been tried nnd found
futile.
Pnlno's celery compound was first pre
scribed by Prof. 'Edward 13. Phelps. M. D.,
LL. D., of Dartmouth Collego, In his prl
vato practice. It has been recommended
by lenrned specialists In nervous diseases.
By Its merit alone It has en mod the high
est commendntlons from phystclnns, tho
press and tho public. It not only regulates
the nervous system, hut nourishes It; Bends
moro nnd better blood to supply tho wastod
nerves und takes tho killing strain off tho
kldnoys.
When pains appear In different parts ot
the body nnd one feels tired nnd depressed,
tho uso ot Paine's celery compound will
drive nway the rheumatism pnln or tho
attack of indigestion nnd correct tho fall
ing appetite, which keeps pace so closely
with tho digestive powers.
Palno's celery compound has proved itself
to be the most ndvanced remedy yet dis
covered for tired brains nnd worn out
nerves.
Nervo tension Is disguised under a good'
many symptoms that leud thoughlleBs por
sons to npply somo useless local remedy
when tho only lasting relief will come from
puriflod blood, kidneys moused to work,
stomnch secreting abundance nf dlgestlvo
Juices nnd a toned-up stato of the nerves.
For all this thero is no need of further
proof ns to' the vnluo of Palno's celory
compound than enn he furnished by tho
rendors' own neighbors if ono will tako the
pains to make Inquiries.
Tho best teat of tho worth of Pnlno's
celery compound Is to uso It yourself.
