The Edenville Tragedy. Three
Children Murdered in Eden
Township, Marshall Co., Iowa. -

Inc MOCu0r missing.
This terrible triple murder which came
to light Oh Tuesday morning of last
week, the second inst. is still mystery.
A neighbor entering the house occupied
by the unfortunate family upon an er-
rand, discovered the three murdered
children lying in ghastly death from
wounds inflicted with an AK, which
was lying near the door, bearing evil
dence OF the horrible use to which it
had been put. The house dog was a
few rods from the house, killed, appa-
rently with the same AK. The mother,
Mrs. Clark, was nowhere to be found,
and the most rigid search by large
organized party, had at last accounts
failed to find her or throw any light up
Oh the pcrpetrator of the deed. 1t was at
first supposed that the children had
heen killed by the mother in a fit of in
sanity, but tire failure Is find any trrce
Of her has thrown doubts OH this theory,
and raised thousand conjectures aud
surmises, which are wholly unauthen-
tlcated as Yet.
a correspondent of the Marshall
Time. gives the following particulars of
the tragedy:
"On Tuesday morning last, the alarm
was gi:ei, and sounded through our
ncighborhood and vicinity, that Charles
c. Clark, aged 8 years and 8 months,
Frank Clark agedl year aud IL months,
and Ivanora v. Clark. aged months,
were lying dead in their beds, with
their heads shockingly mutilated with
an AK, and the mother, Mrs. Mary
Clark, nowhere to he found. Iarrivcd
at the house, situated Oh the Edenviile
and Newton road, two and 4 half miles
south Of EdenvilIe, in about twenty
minutes after the alarm was given-and
such a scene! pray God to deliver me
from ever witnessing again. Here, Oh
God too true, lay weltering in their
blood, three darling little children,
asleep In death. Yes, dead! dead !!
Even by the hand who had thus far
reared them, and she, foryakcn them to
take her own life.
We immediately placed the bodies In
charge OF proper person, and ordered
all inquest to be held at IL o'clock n.
The intervening time was spent In
searching the adjoining cornfieldS,
ravines, creeks. &C., for the missing
wife and mother. Messengers were al:

THAT SUPPRESsIoN.-Once more We
will say word about the rather grave
charge that has been made, itcrated and
is now reiterated by ar. g." in the
Mechanicsville Press; aud in so doing,
we promise our readers, whom we i'm
agine are smiling derisively at seeing
the subject again alluded to, that this is
the conclusion SD fur rs we are concern
ed. In answering. or denying the truth
of the statement made by the ADvER-
TIsER that no suppression Of any part OF
the proceedings of the County Conven-
tions for 1858 aud 1869, as reported by
the Secretaries thereof, had occurred in
its columns; after affirming that the
Editor Of the ADVERTISER was present
ut both Conventions aud Secretary OF
the latter one, "R. G." says:
1--WE do say that the doings Of these
Conventions, relating to the conven-
ton system aud the primary election
system, 'Oerc suppressed"
In answer to this, zoe do say that the
editor was not present at the convention
Of 1888; and, moreover, that the report
Of its proceedings, as furnished by the
able Secretary, A. q. Miller, Esq, was
published rcr,batim in the ADVERTISER
As to the convention of the present year,
we were one of the Secretaries; anu are
we'll aware that 'R. g." has long felt
sadly aggrieved because a resolution
offered by him in said convention pro-
viding for substitution of the Primary
Election for the caucus nominating sys-
tenn In this County, and including a
plan for the operation Of the former
when adopted, did not appear in the
published minutes of the convention.
Now "R. g." knows very we'll that his
pet resolution was ignominiously lost in
division vote, and he should know
equally well that the substance Of de-
feated resolution or motion is no part OF
the proceedings" of the body rejecting
It. The resolution, In itself, was so su :
premely ridiculous, and the plan
proposed 10 palpably impracticable and
unwicldy, that we had fully intended
publishing It A. = campaign document
against the proposed change, but it was
unfortunately misIaid and lost. thereby
depriving the readers Of the ADvER-
TIsER Of an argument at "R. CTS" ex-
pense. As this is the conclusion of our
part III this controversy, let US say, once
more, that we have no insuperable oh.
jections to the election system, our po-
sition being simply this: That, in our
humble opinion, the actual gain by its
adoption in bringing the nomination OF
public finctionaries into the hands OF
the people At large, where It should be-,
is merely nominal and in no way com.
mensurate with the trouble and ex-
pense.

The Iowa Falls Sentinel gives the fol.
lowing as a specimen corn crop in Hsr-
din county this year: I'D. F. Alvord,
Of Georgetown, harvested five hundred
and twenty three bushels Of corn from
six acres Of land the present autumn;
and the crop was given only the cultiva-
ton he usually gives to all his products
over eighty-seven bushels per acre,
aud not an imperfect car In the lot.
An exchange says: If the moths at
tack the carpet, which they will first
do under the sofas and chairs, spread u
wet sheet on the carpet, and pass hot
fiat iron over 1t quickly, and the steam
will effectualIy destroy both worm and
egg. T.
Boil pint Of corn until it is a little
soft; put it into jar; add pint Of mo.
lasses aud four quarts Of water; mix well
together, and set near the stove. In two
days it will be good beer; in two or
three days it will be first rate vinegar.
The same corn will do for six months.
When the vinegar is made, pour it of,
and add molasses and water to the corn
It this way you will have n constant
supply.
BRAZEN FACED SECEsH.--The mana
gers of the Georgia State Fair made a
great fuss about forgetting the thresl,-
ing they got during the rebellion, and
invited the President and his Cabinet
and all the members of Congress to be
present ut the Fair, ut Macon. They
afterwards had the cheeh to except
General Butler, by name, from the in
vitations, and to ask the little loan Of a
war vessel to convey the distinguished
guests. Previous to the last application,
Secretary Boutwell, intended going to
the Fair, but afterwards, all the MEM
bers Of the Government very properly
declined having anything to do with
the secesh concern. So says the Rmai

The Capital Removal.

In regard to this project, the Burling-
ton Uawk Eye itemizes az follows:
"The proposition to remove the Ma
tional Capital to the Mississippi Valley
continues to be agitated with undated
vigor. Gen. Sherman, who warmly
favors the project, Is, no viewer, opposed
to making st. Louis the point, or in
deed any other city of Importance. He
says he would be Opposed to the sur
render of its vast commercial interes
subordinate to the mere political uses of
a capital"
He thinks new place will DC chosen
on the Mississippi River, several hun
dred miles above st. Louis. Nauvoo
has been suggested as the finest natural
site FIR a city with grand and snowy
architecture to he found OH the river
1t is not only u magnificent site for Il
great city, but in that vicinity are found
the most extensive quarries of the best
building stone in the Mississippi Valley
This is bringing the Capital pretty near
Burlington.
