Bathing was the moat popular feature and despite the fact that 800 new bathing suits were added to the stock last week, the run at the Kursaal was so great that all could not be accommodated. This feature is becoming more popular with the women, an unusual number of them being notice able among Sunday' bathers. Nordln'a band rendered two musical pro grams that greatly pleased the large audi ence and many of the popular selections were applauded for a repetition.

K. T. IOWA'S TAXABLE PROPERTY Reports to Auditor at Det MoLes Show Odd Conditions. DAVEIIP0ET HAS EICH PEOPLE Polk Coaaty la Ahead la Aasul ( Merehaadls Reported -Seott Coaaty Has Memey aad Credits. (From ft Staff Correspondent). DES MOINES. la., July 80. (8pecial. Reporta to th state auditor from tie county auditor . as to the value of per sonal property of various kinds In the va rious counties of the state disclose soma Interesting situations. For Instance, ts money and credlta reported by Scott county In 1908 were 88.927,060 ftnd In 1307 were $7,04.2Mi while In Polk county In 1108 th money and credit reported wer 84.9$1,870 and in 1907 only H.932.K32. Fur thermore th corporation stock turned Into the assessor In Scott county In 1908 was 88,834,200 and In 1907 ' 89.430.4fl0. while In Polk county the stock turned In In 19M wa 82.922,8 and In 1907 8a.230,6Dl. Des Moires seem to have enjoyed a much prosperity as Davenport and It might ordinarily seem that It money and credit ought to In crease rather than diminish. The figure seem to show there are mere rich people In Davenport than any other county of th state. The reports thus far to th state auditor cover every county but even. The county auditor of Appanoose, Black Hawk, Calhoun, Dubuque, Guthrie, Lucas and Pocahontas have not reported. On these report the executive council art aa an equalizing board to equalize th assessment, but the council doe prac tically nothing with th personal prop erty In the line of moneys and credlta and corporation stock. For personal property other than live stock Davenport leads the race in Iowa on the total footings. Its personal prop erty other than live stock Is valued at 819.770,2r2 and Polk come next with $14, -463,278. The wealthiest counties of the state given In their order are: Scott 819.770,2fl Polk 14,453.:7 Linn 8.4H2W) Woodbury 8,S07,H Des Moines 6.940.4ft) Clinton 6.74S.W0 Pottswattamle B.4M.14I Benton, Johnson and Lee have over four and a half millions and Cedar, Clayton, Jasper, Mahaska. Page and Wappello have over four million and less than four and a half millions. Polk leads in the amount of merchandise reported, showing $4,990,427, but Woodbury is a clost second, with $4,768,208. Scott re ports $2.4tT7.196 and Linn $2,256,099. All other thu far reported ahow less than two mil lions. Moneys and credits and corporation stock are usually taken aa showing the health of a community. It must therefore be taken that Scott county I easily the rich est county In the state that has thus far reported to the state auditor or else ther are notorious tax dodgers In Polk county. Here are the figure in order for the coun ties that lead the state on those two line of wealth so far aa the report show up tothls tlm: Money and Credit. 1907. $7,043,220 4.274.801 . 9f!2.r32 $.301,674 S.132,461 8.072.928 8,028,064 Corporation Stock. 19(7. $9,430,460 S.230,ttV 1,20,440 1.122.642 1908. $6.27.nfi0 4.i:.2S2 4.931.870 Scott Linn Polk Cedar Benton Washington Clayton .... 8.168.920 S.R21.1fi5 8,993,648 ISO. $8,434,200 2.922,fi6 1.267 W7 Scott Polk Clinton Des Moines. l,012,iU I Linn 1,008,435 Of the seven counties not yet reported Dubuque and Black Hawk with tho cities of Dubuque and Waterloo when they report should ' make a conspicuous showing, both In moneys and credits and In corpora tion stock. The final figures will be in teresting for several reasons. But for the benefit of the members of the legislature who were Interested In the attempt of Bloux City residents to get a commission to study the tax question there Is In the reports to the state auditor abundant of argument for the commission. The Polk county report Is one argument and the Woodbury county report is another. Wood bury county Is In a long list of counties that report over one million and less than two million dollars of moneys and credits notwithstanding the fact that Sioux City Is the third largest city In the state and one of the wealthiest. In corporation stock Woodbury is nearly as conspicuous for being low In the list. Watching; Slew Religion. Whether the "power of tongues" religion that has attracted considerable attention In this city Is worthy the attention is a debatable question with many who have followed the newspaper accounts of the mission's work. The religion Is not new. It is reported to hava come to Iowa from Ohio, though there is no authentic informa tion on that score. It came to Des Moines with Mrs. Scott M. Lftdd. wife of Judge Ladd of tiie Iowa aupreme court, who moved here about four years ago. Mrs. Ladd Is reported to have conducted a sim ilar mission at their termer home In Shel don, O'Brien county. ' The mission In this city waa started In the southern part cf the city on the bottoms In the section Inhabited by the poor of the city. Whether It is really the "power of God" that moves the converts aa Is claimed or merely the stuplfylng at mosphere of the unvtntllated room In which the sect meets Is for poople to judge for themselves. The public has been led to believe that the courts will settle the question. This Is perhaps not likely. Resi dents In the neighborhood of the mission have sworn out a warrant for Mrs. Ladd charging her with disturbing tha peace of the community. When she returns to the city this will probably be served and the court will decide whether or not she disturbed the peace. When the converts of this doctrine meet they gather about an organ which Is placed In the middle of the rom. There Is little or no preaching. A song or two Is sung and someone speaks wtrnlng the unsaved to repent and seek salvation and telling of the punishment to come if they do not heed. There is more singing. They kneel and pray, it Is during thla prayer that tha alleged "manifestations of the spirit come. The petitioners at tha throne of grace are loud and emotional. Some can not contain their feelings and they shout and shriek. They become nervous and tremble. The excitement works on all Then someone falls to the floor unconscious and his or her limbs twitch and Jerk. He Is said to bo "under th power" and It Is whlls In this state that they have the "power of tongues." They jabber and no one Is able to understand what they say They are not able to understand them selves. They hava been known to lie In this state for forty-eight hours. They always come out of It Intensely weak and must be assisted from the place. People who have gone to the mission as curiosity seek ers have noticed that the rooms are never ventilated even in warm weather. None of tho followers of Mrs. Ladd and tho Strang religion aver claim apy other power than thla "(tower of tongues." Tnera ITS! Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer is the ideal summer drink. Cooling, satisfying and refreshing, it adds to the enjoyment of the outdoor .luncheon for it is a food as well as a drink. Pabst brews for food qualities as well as for purity and flavor. Pabst found the only way to get all of the food-values out of the barley-grain was to follow Nature in making tho malt, by growing it slowly and scientifically, and he there fore perfected the Pabst Eight-Day Malting Process. Pabst Malt is richer in nutriment than other malts. Pabst Bl-ueRibbon Tke Beer of Quality is a more healthful, wholesome food than other beers. The Pabst Perfect Brewing Process blends the rich food values of Pabst Malt la no claim to healing and no one has ever claimed to have been healed. There are no miracles. They simply get "under the spell." Those who have been under the "spell" once seem anxious to go again and always return to the mission. The critics of the religion would not be so severe If the religion did not seem to have such bad effects on the physical con dition of the persona who get this "power of tongues." They say too, that It Is wrong to take children to the mission and allow them to Imitate their elders In get ting excited over the prayers and then, In a poorly ventilated room sink In a faint and remain there for hours without med ical treatment. Then again, they frankly confess that they would be much more ready to believe that God was having some Influence In the matter of their unconscious or semi-conscious condition if this condition would come over them in a well ventilated room, and If the converts did not faint Just fol lowing a somewhat prolonged state of high excitement of shouting and dancing and shrieking and moaning In connection with their prayers. In other words, It Is too easy to explain the unconscious condi tion of the converts by the unventllated rooms and the excitement; too easy to ex plain It by natural every day matters to Justify attributing it to tho Almighty. Persons who have gone to the mission meetings to get Information as to the meetings and to study them at close range have been forced to seek the open air even when they have been sitting quietly In the room. They argue that a person highly excited would be much more likely to faint under such conditions. The further criticism against the re ligion is that at these meetings girls and women are allowed to fall In the faints and lay about on the floor in the aisles and on the platform while the public meet ing Is' In progress, and that, too, at a public meeting attended by many men of not overly strict morals or refinement and who are not above passing comments that cannot be repeated here. The ministers of Des Moines, however, and the church people generally, will have nothing to do with the matter. They are following the advice of a certain wise Jew In Christ's time, that If the religion be from God It cannot be hindered and If not from God It will some to naught. Let Little Fellows Free. A. M. Steldley has appealed from the Lee county district court to the supreme court the case in which he waa convicted of stealing a bowl and crock of butter and three cans of fruit from the cellar of Christina Nelson of Melrose. The ques tion put to the supreme court In the appeal la whether or not Bteldley's attorneys did right In arguing to the Jury that because big offenders frequently escape the law Steldley, a little offender, ought to be ac quitted. The district court auutalnsd the objection to that Una of argument by hla attorneya. The attorneys preslsted In the argument and the court ordered It stricken out of the record. Steldley appealed. Honor for securing the Joint freight rates and the schedule decided upon by the railroad commission Is being claimed by the Iowa State Manufacturers' association. In thousands of petitions presented to the railroad commission the members of the association asked for practically Just what the commission ordered, via., 80 per cent of the sum of the locals, through billing, a minimum shipment for 28 cents and the railroads to absorb the transfer charges. Evidence is not lacking that the associa tion was chiefly Instrumental In getting tha bill passed by the legislature last win ter. Just after the bill waa paased the officers of the association got together and as the result of Investigations, decided to ask for th 80 per cent schedule. The railroads sent a committee to tha associa tion and It was agreed that the railroads would consent to that schedule, but they later backed out. The association, however, held steadily to that till tha end. Have Hoot prist it.
