Council Bluffs, Iowa, 1908
Land of Incas — In order to accommodate those who have other engagements early in the evening, the lecture by Frank R. Roberson at the high school auditorium tonight will begin at 8:30, instead of 8 o'clock. Mr. Roberson's address this evening will take up the subject, "The Land of the Incas," and will, it is expected, treat of ancient history and tradition as well as of modern customs. It will be illustrated with stereopticon views, as have been the addresses delivered by Mr. Roberson before. The subject for Mr. Roberson's lecture a week from tonight has, by request of many persons, been changed to "Imperial India," which is said to be one of the best of the lecturer's addresses. It will begin at 8:30 o'clock in the evening, like the lecture tonight.
Decision Thursday — Justice Cooper will hand down his decision Thursday in the case in which Harry Stein alleges that Richard Foreman gave him a $10 bill and received change for $20. Stein claimed that he received the bill without examining it and that when he demanded that Foreman repay $10, the latter refused. The case was heard by Justice Cooper Monday afternoon.
To Industrial School — Probation Officer Henry DeLong and Tracy Rodwell, deputy clerk of the district court, leave this morning for Eldora, where they will take Henry Rodman, Bertie, Earl and Ernest Zentz, who have been committed to the industrial school for boys. The boys range in ages from 8 to 15 years.
Bounty on Wolf — William Price of Boomer township brought to the office of County Auditor Cheyne one wolf scalp, the result of the wolf hunt there Monday. He received the $5 bounty allowed.
