CLARION EXCITED.
Death Of Stranger After Drinking q
Glass Of Beer.

CLARION, May 26.-This little town has
been thrown into a great excitement by
the sudden death Of stranger who APP
peared here a few days ago giving the
name Of d. Eigle, of Sioux Falls, Dakota,
and has been urgently pleading with his
wife, an actress with the Ford Comedy
company, who has been playing here the
past week. to return with him TO their
home in Sioux Falls, and also to their
little five months old babe. whom the
heartless mother deserted for the
destinations of the stage The wo.
man has seemed determined to cut
away from family ties, and last even.
ing the husband and wife INDUCED in
glass of beer. The general conclusion
is that the beer the man drank contained
morphine, and both being bitter,
the morphine was disguised by the
beer. At once the man became desper-
ately i'll and in spite Of immediate
efforts for restoration the man breathed
his last at half-past seven this morning.
The coroner is at present holding an in
quest and it is said there is feeling
among few that the woman is innocent
Of murder and the man committed sui
eide. However il is almost impossible to
reach a safe conclusion. as the general
appearance and recent life Of the woman
are not indicative of any desperate action
while her husband had the appearance Of
a man of refinement, and also seemed
saddened with disappointment at the I'M
happy termination of his married life. The
woman is under arrest.

OUTRAGE AT AMES.
College students Treated 20 Noxious
Gas and Attacked with stones.

AMEs, May 2S.-The smooth course OF
most prosperous college year was
broken last evening by one of the most
shocking outragcs which has eyer oc-
cured in the history of the Iowa Agri.
cultural College. Under the adminstra-
ton Of President Chamberlain the great
est harmony between the Faculty and
students has existed and all the depart
mcnts Of the college have been enjoying
success. and until last evening no muir.
murs of INSTRUMENTATION have been heard
from any quarter But the malicious
tongue of few doubtful characters which
are TO he found in the best Of institutions,
Jealous OF the success Of rival students
who. in mental contests, had shown their
superiority, and who were members of u
secret society, had been silently circu
lating false reports among the newer and
less experienced students, which cul-
minated last evening The members
of gentleman's secret society gave
a reception to their lady friends in
their hail. situated in the third
story Of the Chemical Laboratory
building at the time, and, melted by wild
rumors, masked mob OF about sixty
students, who were principally members
of the lower classes of the college, gath.
cred about the building armed vito rocks
and rotton eggs and were prepared to
assail the building. Previous to this
generator Of a most poisonous gas (cyan-
Ogen) was set in action Just inside of the
building, where its moxious vapors would
rise TO the society room and the doors of
the building were very securely barred.
The gas pouring into the society hall
alarmed the party and the male members
at once rushed down the stairs to asCcr.
tain the cause. They were nearly sulfo.
Gated by the gas and rushing TO the win
dows were greeted by vollcys Of rocks
and rotten eggs. Breaking through the
windows without serious injury, the be-
sciged boys numbering about a dozen,
engaged in combat Of words
with the desperadoes and un-
fastening the doors the half sulfocatcd
and fainting ladies were taken from the
scene. After yelling themselves hOarse
and shouting like anarchists for few
hours the mob dispersed, and once more
quiet reigned. The faculty will meet the
matter promptly. A few of the leaders
will probably be handed to the civil
authorizes AMI the remainder expelled.
Great Indignation exists among the
law and order students that
such despicable affair should have &C
cured. again dragging the l. A. c. into
publicity in the newspapers Of the State
The leaders in the affair have been APP
pretended, and all are anxiously awaiting
the decision Of the faculty. Mob law
cannot dictate to the officers of an insti-
tuition of learning.

A LIFE THROWN AWAY.
A New York Millionaire Who Mar.
ried His Cook.

New York, May 25 AT his home at
East Neck, l.. l., Robert G. Townsend, a
well known millionaire member OF the
Union Club, Of this city, lies dead. He
was a son Of Robert G. Townsend. for
many years a prominent society man.
and from whom he inherited over 81,
100000. lie was only forty.one years
of age, brilliant college graduate, held
an established position in society. had
Travelled in Europe, enjoying all the
advantages OF great wealth, and had
thrown his life away in reckless dissipa
ton. He belonged to a fast set. He
married an educated and refined lady, but
fell in love with his cook. When they
took Mr.. Clarks house they kept one
MARY Ann Murphy" an Irish girl, who
recently came TO this country. The girl
soon began to obtain certain influence
or power over Townsend, who, unknown
TO the so called Mrs. Townsend, devoted
much attention TO her. She was of short
stature, blue eyes and devoted Catholic.
He secured special dispensation by tele.
graph, he becoming a Catholic, and they
were married. Mrs. Townsend was
absent meanwhile and when she
returned the cook droye her out,
Townsend alleging that he was never
married to her His wife, however,
induced him to largely change his habits.
There is much speculation us to the con
tents of the will. In case it is found he
has left his fortune to his wife 1t will be
contested. To-day the widow is the
only woman present at the home Of the
dead man, who is abandoned by all else.

Realism In the Tariff Question.

Iowa state Register
This Is the day Of realism in the pulpit,
realism on the stage, realism In fiction
and why not in the discussion of the tariff
question? II anything viii cnliyen that
dry aud dusty topic II ought TO be
welcomed Coy. Gear evidently thought
so when he introduced some American
blankets into his discussion OF the tariff
question in Congress the other day,
Holding up some real bona iide blankets,
he showed that the cost Of those blankets
was actually less thnn the price of similar
articles manufactured aud sold abroad
In other words, while the Free Traders
have all along been saying that the tariff
was added to the price Of n protected
article, making IL that much higher to
tho consumer, yet In this instance the
blankets with the tariff attachment cost
less than they do IN country where there
Is no tariff. That kind Of an argument
Is very effective, and with those blankets.
which in themselves proved their super
iority aud their value, there Is not much
chance for the Free Trader to work IN
his old story about the tarin being added
10 the price Of the article. This Is the
right kind of realism in discussing the
tariff question II might be carried little
further with equally good effect. II some
member Of Congress would lead into the
discussion some day handsome girl with
q new calico dress he could make practi.
cal demonstration that would certainly
convert Free Traders, II they were open
to conviction. Following their line OF
argument that the tariff Is added to the
price OF the article, making II that much
TO consumers. he could show that with
tariff Of six cents on imported calicos
that maiden could wear calico dress
that cost her in the American stores but
five cents per yard. II the tariff in th1
instance had been added to the price ot
the article, they must he giving away cal
leo dresses in England aud paying the
people small premium to take them.
There is nothing like realism to cOnfound
the beautiful theories OF the Free Traders.
Such hard practical facts as these are
worth more than whole volumes Of their
beautiful theories that are so utterly
inconsistent with common sense and the
common facts Of trade.
