Quito a party ot boys and girls from the
Washington avenue tchool went to Dig lake
yesterday afternoon to skate. The weather
of the pant day or two had made the Ice un
Bate , but they did not nnd It out until they
had sampled It to a rather unpleasant ex
tent. The Ice suddenly broke and Madge
Hollenbcck and Oaba Troutman found them
selves walot deep In water. The rod mud
at the bottom ot the lake commenced to give
way and the girls to sink slowly , The buys
who were with them tried to rescue them , but
came very near falling In making the st-
tempt. Dr. I. U. Parsons was out hk.itlng
and , seeing the predicament the filrU were
In , pulled them out. Iloth were reporUd to
bo feeling pretty well last evening , consider
ing the unpleasant wetting thsy had en-
Joyed. _

crovted serenely through It all , however , am
will be In as good a condition to receive thel
guests today as they ever were. A lot
canary birds , cockatoos , parrots and othe
fancy birds are expected In this morning ,
addition to a lot of poultry that has beei
delayed. What to do with them all Is

members of the association conslderabl
There are already about 1,000 birds on exhl

Some of the members of the Western low
Poultry association ore worried lest some on
will think that It Is they who are giving th :

association aim the Pottawattamle Count

tlrely distinct. The Western Iowa assoclt

on the ground , that Its members raised gam
fowls for the pit. They accordingly went

Ing $7,835,273.
The funded debt outstanding Is $602,583-
364 and the floating debt Is $22,569,229 ;
total debt , $685,162,594 ; debt per mile , $21-

Wabash from Harvey to Albla Is. no longer
counted , although the Iron Is yet on the
ground.
The Interest paid on roads In Iowa Is
$7,796,693 , but this falU probably $000,000
short owing to defective reports. The roads
falling to pay their Interest ore the Chicago
Iowa & Dakota , the Chicago , Santa Fo &
California , the Mason City & Fort Dodge ,
the Omaha & St. Louis , the Sioux City &

AS TO FATALITIES.
The number of persons killed In Iowa dur
Ing the year was flfty-fivo , of whom seven
were passengers and forty-eight were em
ploycs. The number Injured was 429 , o
whom sixty-two were passengers and 36'
- were employes.
The total cost of construction Is statei

, tion Is $23,631,895. Only seven roads on-
iwcr the commissioners' questions as to
the present cash value of the roads , and
the commissioners ask for power to compel
the companies to furnish the Information.
The total earnings from all sources for
the year are $355,133.106 , a decline of $20-
690,533 for the year , but Iowa has little of
this loss , for Its proportion of earnings Is
stated at $40,699,679 , a very slight falling
off for a year which began with panic
and ended with general depression.
The total operating expenses are $107-
328,401 , and the proportion of operating ex
penses for Iowa Is $28,020,531. Dividends
paid during the year -amounted to $15,118-
.315. The number of railway employes In
Iowa Is 29,308 , Including general ofilcers.
Their compensation Is $16,378,740. The
number and compensation of employes show
a small reduction owing to the hard times ,

fore the commissioners' rates went 'Into '
effect In the spring of 1889. The total ton
nage of the entire lines Is 55,678,640 , and
that of Iowa Is 15,936,900 , with the Chicago ,
Durllngton & Qumcy telng omitted , that
line having refused to furnish any Infor-
a matlon with regard to the division of ton
nage , or In fact anything bearing on the
tonnage of that line.

EXPOSURE
to cold often results in bron
chitis. The symptoms are :
Common cold of a catarrhal
nature ; short , painful , -dry
cough , with rapid and wheezy
breathing. Unless arrested ,
inflammation rapidly spreads
through the bronchial tubes to
the air cells of the lungs. Dur
ing the progress of the disease
great attention must be paid
to the nourishment of the pa
tient.
SLOCUM'S
Of Norwegian Cod Liver Oil , with
GUAIAGOL
is the best remedy that can be
given. It maintains the
strength of the patient and ex
pels the morbid secretion from
the bronchial tubes. The
breathing becomes easier , the
fever disappears , the appetite
is restored and a speedy re
turn to health follows.
