Prof. Cornell Of Wiota Schools -i Is Editor And Publisher Prof. R. J. Cornell of Wiota was in the city today on his way home after spending a week in tke office of the Trsynor Record atTreyuor, Iowa, getting an insight into the printing business in preparation for launching the Wiota Record, a new weekly newspaper he will publish at Wiota, th« initial issue of which is to appear on the 29th of the month. The paper is to be five columns, eight pages, with four pages home print and four ready print. Prof. Cornell has the push and vim to make it go and his first progressive move was thp purchase of an entire mew plant of the Great Western Type Foundry at Omaha, which plant is now on the way to Wiota. The Treynor Record says of him and his venture: BREAKING HIM IN •'Prof. R. J. Cornell of Wiota is visiting at tne Record home this week and is assimilating a few tips on the nps and downs of the newspaper business. He is to be the publisher of the new Wiota Rocojrd and came down to visit us so fts to get accustomed to working on'half ratious. We have already relieved him of all his money so. that he will get so he will like that 'broke' feeling that pervades theatmos phere wherever a newspaper man goes. Cornell docs not smoko or swear but he is practicing evening on our old two cylinder twenty horse power pipe and he has promise of making good at it. Next week we are going to let him drop a colum of newspaper just before going to press and if he does not swear then we are going to polish up his education with half a brick, for he will never amount to a whoop in tbe newspaper business without command of 2 languages—English and profane. We are going to take him to Omaha to morrow and let tho ready print trust and type trust get a whack at what is left of him aud when they get through with him he will be ready to swear that Jesse James was a gentleman and that burglars and highwaymen are the most polite people in the world as compared to the men that get the most of wbat the newspaper men earn. Then he will be a real newspaper man, competent to tell the farmers whereto he id in at and at what time to test their seed com. He will be competent to tell them when and how to vote and to do all other things necessary to the intellectual advancement of Wiota. Cornell is a good man and we prophecy that the Record II will beasmuchofa household necessity as its illustrious predecessor, whose name modesty forbids our mentioning, but which is published in this city, if you have any doubts as to what paper wemean."—Atiautio News June 17th.

An anonymous letter was received through the mail to the Journal— name and address unknown. While we usually demand the name of tbe author before publication, we are going to make an exception in this instance as we consider it a literary gem: To The Worm That Turned We wept tears of sorrow when we learned The niisery of the worm that turned And in our anguish loud we cried: "Point out the villain who so lied!" When in our boyish, youthful games' We called you various pet namesSuch as "Splinter" and "Spider" and "Sycamore Tall," And "Leas" and "PantB" and "Old Bean Pole,' And "Pumpkin Vine" and "Skinny," too You took it as boys have to do. You simply overlooked it all (You were so generously tall.) But things have changed in many ways Since those bappy, youthful days, And names that in boyish sports began Are not beiitting to the man. Show us the man who so latelv said That you ate naught but legs and head, And we will put a head on him That will make his body look mighty slim. We'll point out to him the broad expanse Between your necktie and your pants. A space that's large enough to hold A heart that's worth its weight in gold And lungs and liver, and stomach, too— Which always have proved staunch and true. Cheer up, dear friend, for don't you know, He's just some one who envies you: Some pocket-edition with sawed-oS legs And stomach so large they look like pegs. Then thank the fates that made you slim.

When the blaze was first discovered those nearest tried in vain to aavef.aome of tbe household goods but their efforts were futile, only a ohatt or two being saved. Mrs. Hunt was staying last night at the home of her son, Chas. O. Hunt in eastjtown, so it is a mere conjecture-as to its origin. She had some insurance on both house and contents carried in one of Patty's excellent Companies. New Postmaster Named Last Saturday, Congressman W. R.

Rain Prevented A Full House. Cooper's Orchestra of Grinnell College under the auspices of J. K. Vande Brake and Glen Hunt, gave one of their grand entertainments in the Christian Church Friday night before an audience which though not as large as it should have been on account of the rain was nevertheless as thoroughly appreciative as though standing room bad been at a premium The Company is now touring the state during their vacation and from all reports have given satisfaction wherever they have held forth. Thsy are, both ladies and gentlemen, engaged in seeking an education at the College and should be upheld and enoouragsd in their laudable work of entertaining the public. Too great praise cannot be bestowed upon tbe two young gentlemen who engaged in the laudable purpose of trying to supply suitable recreation for our people during the interim between the amusements of winter and the beginning of the lecture course to be annouueed later. The gentlemen have succeeded in their purpose but at a peouniary loss to themselves which they bear philosophically and hope for better success next time. There is nothing definite about the. matter but they may be able to secure a return date with a mostly uew repertoire along about the holidays if it is the sentiment of our people.

Crrn looks fineand small grain also although the straw ia shorter than usual. A Project On The Way To Open A Swimming Pool Within Ten minutes Walk of Business street Some of our more enterprising citizens have conceived the idea of converting tbe big pond in tbe Bush pasture into a swimming pool with toboggan slide on the side and other etceteras as tbey may come to mind. Experts have been looking over tbe surroundings and claim tbe pond can be dreged to the desired depth with comparatively little expense and as it is fed by four living springs, that they can be easily piped into the pond and an outlet be made for the water to' escape into the creek a few rods distant. This would be an ideal place for picnic or excursion parties to while away a few hours and enjoy the shade ot those grand old trees almost bordering on the pond. Make Exira an outing place as is Lewis, Lake View and even Manawa. Let outsiders know Exira is on the map.

Peterman now rides ia bis horseless carriage having lately bought the one driven by C. L.

He is still obliged to go around on crutches, He visited over night with bis brother, Nick, and departed Thursday for his home in Racine, Wis.

Mr. Seibert has written to a friend to find out if the report was true. Cappie Dodge Buys Auto H. P.

FASTEST CRAFT ON WATER American Superiority to Be Shown at Mississippi Power Boat Association Regatta, to Be Held at ^Dubuque, la., on July 3, 4, 5 and 6. When W. H. Fauber of bicycle crank hanger fame, invented the hydroplane, he conceited and perfected what many people believe Is the ship of the future a craft the design of which will revolutionize water transportation and will eventually make ocean voyages at the rate of a hundred miles an hour a reality. A hydroplane is exactly what the name Implies: Hydro—(water), plane —(skim)—a water skimmer. Skip a flat pebble over the surface of water and If it skims or planes right It will go a long ways, because there is no resistance and the power behind It Is sufficient. Throw a rock, with twice or three times the force, through, instead of over the water, and It stops almost instantly. This Is the principle of the hydroplane. Instead of encountering and displacing the water, creating a suction and a W. H. FAUBER, Inventor of the Hydroplane.- friction like the old-style boat, ttie hydroplane, through its design, is forced to the top of the water, then glides over instead of through it. Therefore the hydroplane boat has as much greater opportunity for speed over the old-style boat as the rock you "skip" has over one pushed through the water. The bow of the hydroplane has a knife-like cutting edge and a peculiar flare which, under speed, brings the bow up out of the water. The bottom is flat and wide and from near the bow to the stern at regular intervals are notches or steps, like the teeth of a saw pointed backward. Under speed aid Is drawn under the boat by these steps and the boat has a continual tendency to leap out of the water. The result Is that when speed Is attained the hydroplane Is skimming over the surface of the water, scarcely touching it at all excepting for the stern. There is very little resistance, and powerful motors running at high speed are, therefore, able to push this style of boat over the water at a terrific speed. While all countries, especially France and England, have been making experiments with the hydroplane, SIR JOHN THORNCROFT, Exponent of the Hydroplane. the first great American meeting of these ships of the future will be at the Mississippi Valley Power Boat association's annual races and regatta at Dubuque, la., July 3, 4, 5 and 6. The greatest hjdroplanes in the world will be at this big racing event, and W. H. Fauber, inventor of the craft, predicts world records will be broken In every class. Illustrative that hydroplane racing is in reality a millionaire's sport and the hydroplane itself a millionaire's plaything, Is the entrance of the "Dixie IV." In these races. She was built in New York for Frederick K. Burnham, vice-commodore of the Motor Boat Club of America, and owner of the first, second and third "Dixies," which for years have held undisputed title to world's records for speed. "Dixie IV." cost $45,000. Dubuque expects 19 of these great boats at the races, besides a score of smaller ones and hundreds of ordinary power boats. The committees are preparing to entertain 50,000 people lrom all parts of the country, and the Mississippi Valley event promises to be the greatest and most Interesting water competition since the last effort of Sir Thomas Lipton to lift the American cup.

I eh&U always look back on 1880 as the red letter period of my career. It WH the season, under my managers, ment, the Chicago team came home 'with the pennant. In my opinion, the members of that was one of the greatest bunches of baseball players that ever cast their shadows on the diamond. As it happened, all the league forces that year tone made up of first-class material ifae men under my direction out•classed them all. i. I have had a more or less Intimate iacqualntance with all the crack base!ball teams that have been making •history for the past forty years. I l^on't want to say a word that would .• iseem to imply that I undervalue th« lability of present-day players or over estimate the cleverness of those who ihave been and are no longer: but I !don't mind telling you that, in my .. (opinion, there have been mighty few nines superior to that which held th« National championship from 1880 to 1883. Unlike the majority of clubs in the ileactw that time, the Chicagos did not depend on the services of one flret class pitcher, but had two, Corcoran And Goldsmith, both top-notchers, •laying them on alternate days. I bad two catchers, also, both of them oraokerjaoks, Flint, who ranked as th« premier artist of his day, and Mike Kelly, who was also invaluable In the field. With Quest on second, .Williamson on third. Burns shortstop and Dalrymple, Oore and Beal In the Held, there was nothing further to be 'desired. I stuck to first base, believing then, as I do still, that it was my stronghold. Strong at the bat? Well, rather. In 1880 Oore ied the league with an average of .866, I was second with .888, Dalrymple was third with .332 -and Burns was fifth with .309. In folding Williamson led the third basemen with an average of .893, while the fewest hits of the year were made oil Corcoran's pitching. Among the £rot basemen I held second place, with a percentage of .977. Sullivan of the Worcester team was first that year with .982. Make any money that season? Yes, we made a little, just enough to raise salaries and keep the organization together for the next season. We had the consolation of knowing that we were the only club in the league that made a cent, most of them coming out of the little end of the horn on account of bad management. It began •. to look as If there was money in the game, however, and the club dlrectore were by no means discouraged. The team that had been such credit to Chicago in 1880 was good Th« UgoMl Poultry Faad Manufacturer tatha world.

Cotton OOE: Exira, Iowa PERSONALLY I HAD f£EA50M To SMILF ALL OVER,. enough for me, and since the directors left it to my judgment, I made no changes in the nine the next year. That I made no mistake was the verdict of all the fans when we came In with the pennant a second time. As before, our success was due to our strong batting and really great team work. During the entire season we played as one man, having but one object in view—the capture of the championship. Not a man of the nine permitted himself to indulge in an attempt to do record playing, and sacrifice hitting was the order whenever a point could be made In that way. The race was an unusually exciting one. Rather early in the season it became apparent that the contest between the four leaders might leave the result in doubt until the very last week. It turned out exactly that way and the entire country waited the outcome with bated breath. When the '"en8" caine our record was 56 games won and 28 lost, against our most formidable rival, the Providence team, which won 47 games and lost 37. Personally, I had every reason to 6mile all over. Once again I led the batting list, with an average of .399, and I stood at the head of the first basemen, with .975 opposite my name. When the time caire to make up the team for the following season, 1S82, I couldn't for the life of me see any good reason to make a single change. The other clubs in the league, all of them, had but one object In life—to snatch that pennant from my team and me, and I argued that the boys who had kept the championship in Chicago for two seasons would be more likely to repeat the trick than a bunch of fresh ones who were new to me and my ways. So all the other clubs went to their utmost limit in strengthening their teams, but I just left mine as it was. From start to finish the race that season was a hot one. Honors were so equally divided during most of the summer that the fans were kept guessing and the betting in the pool rooms was something unprecedented. I want to tell you that there wasn't the faintest suspicion of crookedness on the part of a single placer the whole season. As a result of the fierce rivalry between the teams, banner crowds greeted the players everywhere Wherever we appeared that year the bleachers and grandstands were packed to their utmost capacity, and sometimes there was hardly enough room on the grounds to play the game. An era of baseball prosperity had come for sure, and all the clubs were making money. Again we won. We played 84 games victor in 55 and losers in 29. Again Providence was close at our heels and Buffalo not a great way behind. Bos ton jumped from sixth to fourth and showed signs of returning vitality, My personal record was not so flat tering a3 usual. Brouthers of the Buffalo club headed the batting list with .369, while I came second with .367. When we returned home It seemed as if the entire population of the Windy City had turned out to welcome us. The enthusiasm was so great that nothing was too good for the men who for the third time had made Chicago the baseball center of the universe. There was just one thing that interfered with my perfect enjoyment of the sltuatlon-~before we set out on that campaign William A. Hulbert, our president and the founder of the league, one of the best friends I ever had either in or out of the profession, passed out of this life. In the midst of the glad hurrah that greeted us on our return it saddened us to remember that the man who had done F0LEYKIDNEYP1IXS Fon BAOKAOHK KIDNEYS ANO BLAODKH so 'much lor us Individually and so much to make the game respectable by rescuing it from the hands of the gamblers was not in the wildly cheering crowd. Once more let me say that the secret of the club's success in winning the championship for these three successive years lay In its team work. Added to this was the faot that long practice in studying and perfecting the fine points of the game gave us an enormous advantage over our competitors, who had not yet got onto the value of concerted action. I realized that there was a few weak spots in our make-up, but the general fitness of the team was so good that these blemishes were lost sight of In the general rejoicing. I suppose I shouldn't have realized any outside criticism at the time, and probably wouldn't have appreciated any advice, but as I look back I must admit that I can discover one or two little things which, if recognized and remedied at the time, would probably have given us a more satisfactory start-off than we had the following season. CHAPTER XIII. I Take a Tumble With the Boys. If this were a strictly personal account of my life, with the history of baseball in America left out, I might dodge some of the disagreeable things that now and then got sandwiched in between the almost constant smooth sailing that fell to my lot as manager of the banner team of baseball artists in America. One of the things I might escape would be the necessity at explaining to you how it happened that I let Boston get away with the pennant in 1883. To be frank with you, it has always been more or less of a mystery to me. The only change in our personnel was the substitution of Fred Pfeffer for Joe Quest at second base, and that should have meant additional strength for us. That it didn't turn out that way was no fault of the new man, for he proved himself to be a crackerjack. It is possible that overconfldence may have had something to do with our slump, although we must have been onto the fact that our opponents were after us hot and heavy. From the start it was plain enough that the contest was going to be a battle of the giants and that Chicago, Boston, Providence and Cleveland were the only ones In it. Excitement ran high all over the country and the big newspapers began to devote considerable space to our dally doings on the diamond. Until about that time baseball had not figured very prominently in the press. Recently on looking over the files of a big New York daily for the year 1880 I was surprised to find so little mention of the game. There was no account of any game played outside New York and Brooklyn, and even those were given very little space—not a third as much as was ta^ ken up by pigeon shooting. In October of that year the Chicagos played with the Metropolitans, and the report of the game does not cover more than three inches. One of the statements in it amused me a whole lot. It was to the effect that when the score stood 4 to 0 in favor of my team we put on our coats and quit, with the excuse that we had to catch a train. I don't recollect anything of the sort. But if A GEJMEfcAL EARTHQUAKE f, BASE BAIL it actually occurred it goes to prove that the game was a mighty informal thing in those days. Well, we dropped the pennant in 1883 and Boston got it. Nor was that the bitterest pill I had to swallow. I fell to twelfth place in the batting list, my percentage being only .307. Brouthers stood first, his percentage being .371. It seemed as if the twirlers were getting a little too foxy for my style of hitting. I had been patting myself on the back a long time over my batting career, and to have an experience of this kind was tough. The big baseball event of that year was the adoption of the code known then as the trlparte agreement, but now termed the national agreement. A. G. Mlils, the new president of the league, was active in promoting it, and it was accepted by the league, the American association and the Northwestern league. Among other things it provided that no contract with any player should be made loneer than aeven months, beginning April 1 and ending October 81. At that time the stealing of players was a growing evil and one that made a heap of trouble. To put a Btop to the practice, it was provided, that on October 10 each year the secretary of each association should furnish the secretaries of the other associations a reserve list ol players, not exceeding fourteen in number, then under contract with each of Its several club members, and of juch players reserved on any "prior "annual reserve list who had refused to contract with the said club'B members, and of all other eligible players, and such players, together with all others thereafter regularly to be contracted with by 6uch club members, "Are and shall be eligible to contract with any other club members of either association party thereto." That was a mighty strong doBe, but that it broke up the stealing game there is no denying. Many of the players didn't take kindly to the proposition, however, and there was more kicking over it than there had been over anything else so far. Later on It led to the Brotherhood revolt and a general earthquake in baseball circles. That is why I mention It in this place. Next year came the Union association fiasco. It was a short-lived affair, but on account of the influence It had on the game It cannot be left out of its history. The season of 1883 had been such a money-maker that Henry V. Lucas, owner of the St. Louis club, believing he saw millions in it, organized his Union association, and its speedy failure brought financial shipwreck to him. The new baseball trust—that Is about what it amounted to—was organized In Pittsburg with a big flourish of trumpets. It was announced that at least fifty leading league players would break their contracts and Join the new venture, but when the time came not a baker's dozen showed up. It was a goose-egg of enormous proportions. Only five of the original clubs played out their schedules, and it gave up the ghost at the olose of its first seaBon. And all the time the league—which had promptly expelled the deserting players—was having a most exciting and prosperous season. All of the clubs had signed more players than they actually needed In order to keep them out of the reach of the Union association. My ohib had no less than nineteen men on the salary list that season, some of whom were never called on to play. The men In my bunch that did the work were Corcoran, Goldsmith and Clarkson, pitchers Flint and Kelly, catchers Anson, first base Pfeffer, second base Williamson, third base Burns, shortstop and Dalrymple, Gore, Kelly and Sunday In the outfield. Well, It so happened—how I'll never tell "you—that we got started wrong foot first. At the end of May we were only In fifth place, Boston and Providence being the leaders. By the end of June we had not improved our position and matters were beginning to look rather dubious. Just about that time the Providence boys were playing great ball. Radbourne, their pitcher, was doing some tricks that were sending his club to the top, and It looked a sure thing for Providence If he could keep the pace. In September and October the Chicago folks rallied a little, but, although we won every gaipe we played in the latter month, the best we could do was to beat New York for fourth place. It was a consolation to have Providence jump in ahead of Boston, Iftit you are perfectly correct in supposing that the position occupied by my club at the "close of business did not satisfy A. C. An son. I realized that some changes In our make-up was necessary. It was one of the hardest duties I had to per form, this weeding out of material that was no longer up to the mark, a job I never got entirely hardened to. Larry Corcoran, who had done such Eplendld servioe for us, was on to the fact that his pitching days were about over, asked for his release and got it. Goldsmith had not been doing work of the first class and he was also sent out Into the cold world. Clarkson and McCormlck, who had played with Cleveland the previous year, and who knew how to rattle the batsmen, were signed as pitchers. I didn't see how I could Improve on the rest of the make-up and I didn't try to. During the winter of this year the league got into a lively shindy right under Its own roof. The deserting St, Louis club, of which Mr. Lucas had been president, was taken back as penitent, and President Mills was so riled over the matter that he resigned The three offices of president, secretary and treasurer were turned over to Nicholas B.

ULY 3, 4, 5 AND 6 THE DAYS Greatest Marine Racing Machines In the Country Are Entered in First American Competition for Highest Speed on the W«ter. Not since Sir Thomas Lipton last tried to lift the American cup has a nautical event attracted the widespread national attention being directed to the annual regatta this year of the Mississippi Valley Power Boat association at Dubuque, la., July 3, 4, 5 and 6. Two scores of the greatest marine racing machines in the country will be entered and 50,000 people from all parts of the land are expected to be present to see the world's records broken as predicted by W II. Fauber, inventor of the hydroplane, the new demon of speed. In no field, excepting the conquest of the air, has there been the wonderful development during the past two or three years that has been seen in motor boats. A few years ago a boat making ten miles an hour was considered a millionaire's delight. Now the same boat is a "tub" and the millionaire toys, Instead, with a hydroplane which will sltlm over the water almost at lightning speed—50 to 55 miles an hour. The Mississippi Valley races at Dubuque will be the first American competition of these new high-powered marine racers. The greatest boats produced in America this year have been entered, including "Dixie IV.," speed 55 miles an hour, "Vita II.," speed 50 miles an hour "Red Top," speed 50 miles an hour, "Yankee," with GOO horse power motors and speed estimater at between 50 and 55 miles an hour. Resides these there will be many other great boats, all in the international defender class, which it cost a fortune to build, and which are expected to trim the French and English speed liends in later races. All of these boats will receive their first public trials iu the Dubuque races. It will in fact be virtually the elimination for the international events to follow. When Fauber thought he had the hydroplane idea perfected lie built 15 models before he secured one which demonstrated the success of his theory. Each of them rose to the surface of the water under power, but as the power was Increased the bow would sink and the motors had to be shut off to prevent them from going bow first to the bottom. The sixteenth boat built along his new idea was almost the same as the others, but contained some changes. The motors were installed and the motor started. The boat darted off like a streak, so fast, its occupants hardly knew what had happened so last, in fact, they shut off the power In fright. From that day the hydroplane has been a success and models are now in existence which have attained a speed of 57 miles per hour —faster than a limited passenger train. Boaters and visitors will come to Dubuque from all sections and from all directions. The cruise of power boats will be one of the big features of the regattas. Power boats will begin to leave the fartlier reaches of the northern Mississippi, lower Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, St. Croix, Illinois and other rivers late in June, bound for the regatta city, and scores ot boats will come from the great lakes. As the fleets progress the boats will be joined by others until the night of July 2, when the northern fleet anchors at Cassville, Wis., the northern rendezvous, and the southern fleet anchors at T3ellevue, the southern rendezvous. There will be hundreds of boats of all descriptions all ready to follow the reception fleet, which will come out from Dubuque to meet them, back Into the harbor the morning of July 3. The 3d will be devoted to the reception of visitors, and the big races start the afternoon of July 4. This day the 40foot class for such boats as "Dixie IV.," "Eph," "Red Top III.," "Hoosler Boy," "Disturber II.," "Vita II." and "Yankee" will race for the championship and prizes of $1,000 cash each and the Webb $1,000 sliver cup. The same day the 20-foot class, considered by many the most spectacular, will race, and speed as high as 40 miles an hour are promised for these boats, which are no longer than a fish pole. In the evening an illuminated boat parade will be held and an aquatic fireworks display, which it is promised will be the greatest ever held In the west. On July 5 the 32 and 26 foot classes will be run and another parade will be held In the evening, together with fireworks. On the 6th the handicap for winners will be one of the big features, as will also the races against time by the champion.

Statesman Born at Sea. The life story of the prime minis ter of New South Wales, the Hon James Sinclair McGowen, who arrived In London recently for the coronation is a peculiarly romantic one. He was born on the Pacific. It was in the days of sailing ships, and the West ern Bride lay becalmed. But in the hour of the future premier's birth breeze sprang up, and the babe was hailed by the crew as .an omen of good fortune, and christened after the captain, whose name was Sinclair. Mr McGowen's birth was registered at Stepney, as he was born at sea under the British flag. Here comes a strange coincidence. Mr. McGowen was never out of Australia till he left for the coronation, and the taking of the cen sus coincided with his voyage. While on the high seas his name was counted among British-born citizens, and once more the fact was recorded at Stepney. Walked Far to Find Calf. There was an astonishing sequel a sale of a cow and her calf a days ago. At the Talycafn Mart, near Llanrwst, Wales, they were sold a Colywn Bay farmer, who disposed of the calf at the mart. The cow removed to Colwyn Bay, where was fastened up. During the night, however, she broke the chain that held her, and escaped out of the cowhouse. Next morning she was discos ered lying down by the mart door where she was separated from calf, having walked ten miles during the night.—London Answers. IDEAL FARM SSSiS Uv 4s* nly $42.50 Per Acre.
