Tague, a chauffeur em ployed by George F. Schutt, manager of the National hotel at Washington, D. C., owner of a White Steamer touring car, iu company with Harry S. Gray, proprietor of the Main street livery of this city, were about to drive the machine east froni the Court house on Main street last Tuesday evening, an explosion oc curred, destroying the car and hor ribly burning iboth men. Mr. and Mrs. Schutt and Mrs. B. E. Schutt of Cresco were making a return trip to Washington from a tour of the middle west, and arrived in 'Manchester about o'clock, stop, ping at the Hotel Clarence. The driver took the car to the garage and finding the building closed, asked Jlr. Gray, who was standing across the street, where he might find Mr. Gill. Mr. Gray stepped into the car, hav ing offered to direct the chauffeur to tiie residence o? Mr. Gill. In turning the car around, it is supposed that a defective plug, which was attached to the gasoline tank, permitted an escapement of the gas, filling the air with its ignitable fumes. As tile driver turned on the power, which increased the flame beneath the steam chest, an explosion occurred and the machine was instantly en veloped in flames. Both men were stunned for a fraction of a second, and powerless to escape, the deadly fumes and four walls of fire making it impossible for them to command their faculties. Mr. Gray fell from the car onto the pavement, his face and hands badly burned, while Tague remembers climbing over the hood and' tumbling to the ground, his clothing and hair on fire. His face and neck, both arms, chest and parts of his body were frightfully cooked, and until medical assistance was given him, it was feared his burns were fatal. The unfortunate men were hurried to the offices of nearby surgeons who relieved them as far as medical science permitted, and then taken to their apartments. The car had collided with an electric light pole and was burning itself away. Witnesses of the accident ran to the fire station and hauled a hose cart to the scene and soon had the flames extinguished. Three tires exploded, and all the yood work was burned and charred. The upholstery and cushions were destroyed with the leather top. It Is thought, the engine and other parts of mechanism may be used in re-building the car. In surance to the amount of fifteen hun dred dollars is carried by Mr. Schutt, who has owned the car since June. The party remained in the. city until Friday, leaving for Washington^ Mr. Tague is a married man, and a licensed chauffeur, having been in the employ of Mr. Schutt for the past year. He is recognized as a careful driver and an expert. During the day, he had noticed the car was run ning imperfectly and at Independence with a machinist, had made an invest gation, but could not ascertain the trouble. A constant leakage finally resulted in the elegantly equipped car's destruction, which' Mr. Schutt believed to be due to a defective piece or pieces in the working parts. STRAWBERRIES AGAIN FOR LAMBS. FEAST The "Lambs", a cognomen applied to the Manchester team by certain parties in Strawberry Point, are a frolicksome bunch of rascals when turned into the Patch where the Point occasionally, raises strawber ries. These Lambs again delighted ir nibbling and later relishing a feast Wednesday afternoon from only nine or ten Strawberries, but a savory flavor still remains in their systems. The Pointers scored in the third inning, Rogers fluking around the bases in his customary manner, and handing one run to the credit of the team he represented. Dye held down the box and also fell Into numerous holes, being hit seven times with considerable exactness and force Waldren allowed three hits and was right there with much pep. The Lambs found Dye five times in the sixth, Brown of Anamosa, who had been called by Manager Grems to hold first while Hans was backstop ping on account of Burke's injured mit, took a p§ek at i,he clouds and distant corn field and unpretentiously rapped the twisting horsehlde for a home run. The next four men up each followed with singles, scoring three runs in that inning. The rest was easy.' MORE HONORS FOR DELAWARE COUNTY EDUCATOR. Prof. Charles E.

This department considers the following, from the Oskaloosa Globe, the most amusing thing that has appeared in a Kansas paper this year, and it Is worth a place ifi your scrapbook, for you will want to laugh over it again some day: "Tiie Globe man went to church Sunday night to listen to the clasa sermon, hear the music, and all that. He didn't particularly feel funny when he wont in, for every one seemed to be In a rather serious mood. It. doesn't take much to amuse you in church though, does it? Among the musical productions was an anthem. Now, this is no slur on the choir, for the anthem was a beautiful one, and especially well rendered. But when you coma to analyze an anthem, the way it is sung, It is liable to appeal to your risibilities. This anthem was the one, 'Oh, That I Had the Wings of a Dove.' To start out with, just imagine the average choir member with the wings cf a dove. What they want is a flying machine. B'J to the knitting. The first tenor ambled to the front and told how ho wanted 'the wings of a dove, the wings of a dove, the wings of a dove,' three times, just that way you Bee. About the time he got through, the fair-haired soprano got in the game, and also wanted the wings of a dove three times, but ex plained the reason by saying, 'that I might fly away and be at rest, be at rest, be at re?t,' three more times. Then the alto got the fever, build me a nest, build me a nest, build me a nest,' thrice again repeat ed. But she scarcely got through un til the bewliiskc-red bass alsd decided he'd 'build me a nest na tree in the wilderness, the wilderness, tho wilderness,' The first tenor, the fair-liaired soprana, the alto and the bowhiskercd bass were now calmly perched 'on a nest in a tree in the wilderness.' This was too much for the rest of the crowd. The whole dog-goned chorus rushed in, and de clared, in loud and 110 uncertain tones, that if they had the wings of a dove they'd fly away and be at rest on a nest in a tree in the wil derness. Are we to be blamed if we thought it would look mighty funny to see the crowd sitting around 'oii nest in a tree in the wilderness,' but when a 200rpound bass, a 240 pound soprano, and then the whole choir want to squat down 'on a nest in a tree in the wilderness' and be funny to us. Can you blame us?"— Emporia Weekly Gazette. The plaintiff alleges that on May 1, 1907, she entered into a written contract with him whereby she leased the second floor of the Cofflt's build ing to him for a term of nine years and three months. She further al leges that the defendant threatens to remove certain property consist ing of pianos and other musical in struments, regardless of his obliga tions under tbe lease, and that she will be put to great trouble and ex pense following the property and establishing her lien for the rent, as it may become due.- She asked for and was granted by Judge Smith a writ of Injunction re straining Air.

A home run by Allen and ten other hits by Anamosa tells the tale of Manchester's whipping at Anamosa Sunday. It was by a large margin that Captain Cobb and his champs were defeated by St. John's crew. Tile doctors and pall bearers were the only busy people at the scene of carnage. They carried away the dying. St. John had no need of us ing a razor, but handled a white wash brush, which was just as effec tive and even more picturesque. Ana mosa massed five runs in the first three innings, and three more in tho eighth. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind Yon Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of COLESBURG.

This is certainly commendable on their part. I also notice that there is an effort to pay off the debt against the Fair grounds. I s'neerely hope there may be some plan devised by which this may be accomplished. We have as fine Fair grounds as may be found in any city of the same population. There is no good reason why tiie peo ple of this community should not be able to cancel this debt, and leave the grounds to future generations for agricultural fairs. Our officers are men of ability and they will do all within their power. But the officials cannot do it all, and it Is utp to us as citizens to help. Therefore, let those get busy who want to promote the intevests e! our County fair. I would like to hear from others on this subject.
