A Radical Temperance Measure.

HOW THE IOWA PRoHIBITIONISTS MAY PUT
DOWN NUISANCES-CLARKS BILL.
The Iowa Senate has passed CIark's Prohibit
ton bill, which, probably, is the most radical
temperance measure ever enacted in this
country. The act is known as the Additional
Penalties bill. and the main points are aS follows :
Actions to enjoin nuisances under the Prohb-
ition law shall be brought in the name of the
State by the District or County Attorney of the
proper court. In case he refuses. any citizen of
the county may do so. The general reputation
of the place shall be admissible as evidence.
The court in session, or the judge in vacation.
Shall grant a temporary injunction without
bond. Whoever is convicted of keeping nlIis-
ance under the Prohibition law shall be fined
not more than 81 600 nor less than $500, and
the person shall not have an opportunity to
purge himself. If the existence of the nuisance
be established it shall be abated under the judg-
ment of the court by Selling and removing all
removable property within the building and by
securely closing the same. If the property of
the defendant is not used as homestead for
one year, unless sooner released, as provided.
the owner may secure the opening of the build
ing by filing bond to the value of the property
and giving satisfactory evidence that the nuiS-
ance shall be abated. In all prosecutions under
the State prohibition laws the finding of such
liquors i'll the possession of any one not legally
authorized to sell the same, as in private
dwelling, shall be presumptive evidence that
the same were kept for illegal sale. A second
conviction is punishable by a term of not less
than three months nor more than three wears
in the penltentiary. Any person or company
transporting prohibited liquors upon conviction
shall be fined 800 for each offence and commit
ted to Jail until such fine is paid. A refusal to
brand correctly or make known the contents of
any package or falsely making the same with the
intention to conceal the contents shall be pun
ished by fine of 800 and costs. Officers shall
have the power to break open and examine any
packages The property, except the homestead
of any person convicted under the provisions
of this act shall be contiscated to pay fines.

A FienG,s Work.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Sept. IA dia-
bolical crime was committed at Westfeld
Saturday night whereby a brave young
engineer met his death and his engine was
badly wrecked. Some unknown person
broke the lock Of switch about mile
southwest Of the West6eld station on the
Westfeld & HolyOke branch of the New
Haven & Northampton railroad. The axe
with which the lock was broken was OBJ
tanned from neighboring slaughter house.
The train wrecker first unsucceSSfully tried
to cut the switch staple from the tie.
He turned the switch on the sidetrack,
where number of freight cars were stand
ing, and when the New Haven excursion
train came over the road from Holyoke,
about $50 this morning, it ran on the
switch. The fireman saw the freight cars
and jumped from the right side of the en-
CINE. and was unhurt Engineer George
Baldwin reversed the engine in flash and
jumped from the opposite side.
but was in some way thrown
under the wheels, where he was
cut to pieces. He had thrown on the air
brakes so strongly that the engine tore out
the couplings from the car following, and the
car was thrown from the rails directly
across the track. 1t did not tip over. The
train consisted of three passenger cars and
a baggage car and carried between fifty and
sixty passengers. who were somewhat
shaken up. Ne one was hurt seriously,
however. The body of the engineer was
picked up and prepared for burial. No
motive is assigned for the atrOciOuS crime

A man named Paine committed murder in
Missouri several years ago and was SEN
fenced to hang, but made his escape and
came to Washington territory. His where
abouts became known and a requiSition was
sent to Spokane Falls and placed in the
hands of Jack Hubbard, constable, to
serve. He took deputy named Faiken
and left Sunday morning for Paine's place.
100 miles distant, secured Paine without
trouble and placed handouts upon him. He
asked to bid farewell to his wife in secret
which was granted. and the two officers and

Minneapolis BADLY Trounced.

Eau Claire won from Minneapolis yester-
day with hands down, outplaying the local
team at all points. Nearly three thousand
persons shivered in the seats and alternately
applauded the good plays and guYed the
errors, which were frequent. A more i'm
partial or discriminating crowd never as
sembled at ball park than usually goes
down to see Minneapolis play, and that of
yesterday was no exception. A spectator
could never tell from the applause which
was the local team, for no good play by the
visitors is ever permitted to go unrewarded.
When the home boys are loose
and careless the crowd is unmerci-
full in its sarcasm, and this was
the case yesterday. Moynahan covered
short field in the worst possible style, re-
fusing one chance altogether and making
three errors out of the four he did accept.
Muffs of hot grounders are eXcusable at
times. but Moynahan fumbled them all
and then dropped straight throw by Sow
ders, at second, to force man out. Short
stop has always been the weak point with
Minneapolis and was never weaker than
now. Rhue caught the infection and made
three wild throws at the plate and one
muff, contrasting forcibly with his usual
careful play With such support Sowders
could not and did not pitch effectively.
being caught for ten hits. Burdick, on the
other hand, was well supported and pitched
fine game holding Minneapolis down to
| three hits for five bases. For six
innings. not hit was made by the home
team and only one man reached first base,
that being present by Mr.. Burdick to Mr..
Lynch on six balls. In the seventh,
O'Rouke made the first hit went to third on
passed ball and scored OH Rhue's sacrifice.
In the eighth, Crooks hit for two bags. but
died at the plate. In the ninth, ORouke
was hit by pitched ball and scored on
Moynahan's drive to left field for two bases.
Eau Claire began scoring early and kept it
up during the game, but the Minneapolis
errors and the failure to bunch hits pre-
vented any of the runs from being earned.
Three wild pitches. eight passed balls and
nine fielding errors tell the dismal tale.
Following is the score:

uses the gift is dedicated, they will esteem
even more highly the feeling and conviction
which prompted the gift than they will the
