Iowa Lawmakers Advance Minor Education Bills In Des Moines

Iowa lawmakers moved forward with a slate of minor education measures. Key bills raise state superintendent salary to 4000, create inspectors at 200 each, and boost department appropriations by 141,800. Bills expand high school and rural school aid, and require agriculture manual training and domestic science in public schools. Public utilities reform allows cities to withdraw from state commission rules, with a compromise amendment. A Taylor bill targets patent medicines, while Iowa reports state assets near 11 million dollars and Governor Clarke urges a soil conservation commission. Public intemperance measures face indefinite postponement amid divisions.

The senate passed the De Wolf Bill to prohibit discrimination and rebates in insurance rates with a 27 to 12 vote.

Life Saving Crew Rescues Orphans in Flood

Captain Charles Carland and six Chicago life savers rescued fifty elect children and their attendants from the Fort Wayne Orphan Asylum after five trips across half a mile of rushing water. They saved four matrons and six men, while one earlier attempt had ended in drowning. The rescuers arrived amid extreme danger as the building flooded and survivors endured hunger and cold. They later carried the children to safety and were thanked by merchants.

Butterless Supper Amid City of Mexico Gun Practice

In Mexico City a family endures a butter shortage while rival factions practice shooting in the streets. The husband declines to go to the grocer, the wife insists, and they improvise by opening jelly as their child begs for a taste. The scene highlights urban tension and domestic calm amid conflict.

Doubtful Citizen and a Dining Needle Prank

A printed quip shows a citizen debating promises while a typesetter explains a soup misprint as a noodle. The tale includes a waiter-turned-innocent misstep with a needle in soup and a joke about printing errors. Dr Pierce’s pellets are advertised for stomach and bowels.
