Ballsing.
A number of the leading business and
professional men of tha city were given
an opportunity Wednesday night to realise
something of the scope of the work of the
Associated Charities. They were the guests
of the association at a banquet served In
the dining room of tha Creche on East
Pierce street.
"We have not Invited you here." ex
plained Miss Caroline Dodge, prealdent of
the association, "for the purpose or with
the Intent of begging. We want you to
sec for yourselves the children In our homa
here and to learn of the work that we are
doing. This little affair tonight Is In Its
small way a mark of our appreciation of
the assistance and aupport we have re
ceived in the paat from tha business men
of the city."
Among those at the banquet were: Mayor
Thomaa Maloney, Major Oeorge H. Rich
mond, chief of police; Assistant County
Attorney Dillon Ross, Colonel TV. F. Baker
of the Board of County Supervisors, Rev.
Marcus P. McClure. pastor of the First

Hess. Charles W. McDonald. Lewis Cutler,
W. H. Dudley and Dr. Mac Hanchett.
On arriving the gueata were shown
through the building by Mlas Dodge and
Mrs. Johnson, the superintendent. After
the excellent menu had been dlapoaed of
the women very thoughtfully had the
cigars handed around and a aoclal hour
waa enjoyed with a number of short
Impromptu talks. Miss Dodge as preal
dent of the association told of the finan
cial and general condition of the creche
and the association In general. She waa

of the association that he would urea
and vote for a liberal appropriation from
the county board; Victor E. Bender. Dr.
Hanchett. Adolph Beno, Major Richmond,
Mrs. Lewis Cutler and Mra. Johnson, the
superintendent.
Mrs. Cutler told of the campaign that
a special committee was waging to ilesr
off the debt of the association by secur
ing pledges of $S a year each from ISO
women of the city. This would mean
It.OOO a year and In a few years the in
debtedness caused by the purchase of the
creche property and Improvements to the
building would be wiped out -
It la needless to say that every man
who waa a truest at the creche laat night
left there with a warm spot In hla heart
for the noble band of women who are
devoting their time, energies and money
In caring for ao many little children and
for others who may be In trouble or In
want.

and some real estate In thia city, but after
the death of her husband, which occurred
in St. Bernard's hospital from paresis, she
hit the toboggan slide snd she rspldly be
came a mental wreck from alcoholism.
She was first declared Insane In August.
136, snd after a short sojourn In St.
Bernard's hospital was removed to the
state asylum at Clarlnda from which place
ahe was discharged as cured In May, 189&
A year later ahe was again aent to St.
Bernard s, where ahe remained about six
months. She then returned to her father's
home near Lincoln. Neb., and nothing was
heard of her until In December, 1808, when
the Omaha authorities brought her across
the river and turned her over to the Iowa
authorities. The local commissioners de
cided that the woman's residence waa In
Nebraska snd she wss sent back across
the river In custody of a deputy sheriff.
The Omaha authorities flatly refused to
accept the woman and the officer waa com
pelled to bring the unfortunate woman back
to Council Bluffs. This was over ten years
sgn and the woman haa been a source of
trouble and care to Pottawattamie county
ever since. She would be discharged from
the hospital or the asylum only after a
brief period to be brought back again.

DES MOINES. April 22.-(Special.)-At-torney
General Ryers returned this morn
ing from Chicago, where he went with
President Sykes pf the Corn Belt Meat
Producers' association and Clifford Thorns,
attorney for the association, and whlls
In Chlcsgn the three held a conference
with Judge Prouty of the Interstate Com
merce commission and representstlves of
the railroads on Important matters affect
ing live stock rates in Iowa.
The Corn Belt Meat Producers' associa
tion has been seeking certain concessions
on interstste business and has a suit pend
ing before the commission. The confer
ence was to secure an agreement, if pos
sible, without a trlsl of the case, sad this
was substantially accomplished.
Under this It is likely that the feeding
In transit rate on western stock will be
made to apply to Iowa, as to other states
and on all Interstate business. Then It was
greed that the railroads would make a
rate en double-deck cars of sheep for Iowa
shippers the same as for shipments of
csttle, which Is done elsewhere, but has
not been done In Iowa.
The other matter of great moment was
that of the application ot the tone system
for msking rates to Chicago on live stock.
At present ths Missouri river rate of H
cents applies to stock sll over the west
ern hslf of the state, ami then the break
Is sudden, dropping to the 14 cent rate
for the eastern Iowa points. The proposal
of the shippers Is for a gradual reduction
of the rate eastward on the zone plan.
While an agreement wss not reached on
this, It is believed the change will finally
be made.
Threshertnen la Cooventloa.
The state association of threshertnen Is
In session here with sn attendance of about
200. The association rejoices In having
secured at the laat session of the. legisla
ture a bill which Is Just what they de
sired in regard to bridges. At present the
owners of threshers sre required to lay
planks across the bridges when the trac
tion engines go over, but under the new
law about a year Is given In which the
counties must so strengthen the bridges
that no planking will be necessary, after
which the traction englnea will go along
the roads without hindrance. The associa
tion expects to secure other legislation and
to protect the interests of men who own
property valued at tao.000,000. A legisla
tive committee Is maintained.
Parole Board MeetlagT.
The State Parole board met today, with
the largest amount of business ahead of It
on record, there being on file more than
150 applications for clemency. A large num
ber of these will be disposed of easily, but
others will require further Investigation.
At this time the board also will take up
for consideration for the. first time a num
ber of the applications which were acted
on adversely ' by tho legislature, including
the cases of ,.6rman McPherson. Betsy
Smith, Joe Warren, A. D. Storms and W.
P. Olyndon. The Storms case will hardly
be disposed of now, as there Is need of
further Investigation. The" McPherson and
Glyndon cases are old ones, both having
been before the legislature several times.
All sre lifers.

that the finance committee would have
little to do other than clerical labor. But

of salariea of pioneer educators of the in
stitution, who have been ill-paid for many
years. Iowa has been notoriously niggardly
in the apportionment of funds for salaries,
and those who have given their Uvea, prsd
tically. to the university and the state,
have never received anything like the re
muneration that other atste universities psy
men of similsr caliber.
Weak Over-worked Women
Who are broken down and made invalids by the drudgery of never ending household carei
and duties, or by over-frequent bearing and nursing of childern, and many other cares,
burdens and strains which the weaker sex have to bear, are deserving of profound sym
pathy. But while sympathy is commendable what these unfortunate women most need is a
good, honest, square-deal Restorative Tonic and Strength-giving Nervine and Regulator
one compounded and carefully adapted to act in harmony with woman's peculiar, deli
cate, ever sensitive organization.
Who so well fitted to select, carefully proportion the ingredients and compound a
remedy for the cUre of these distressing and often pain-wracking weaknesses and derange
ments, as the carefully and thoroughly educated and regularly graduated physician who
has had a long and successful experience in treating just this class of cases.
