gagged in preparing his argument in the river
land cases, which he will submit 10 Attorney
General Miller early in Jnne He will take
the positive and aggressive position that the
land was never earned by the Improvement
company, to whom it was granted, and,
therefore should never have been conveyed
10 them. Having obtained il Illegally, their
transfer of tue land would be illegal, and so
each subsequent assignment of 1t down to the

is said that he can, IL will be easy 10 do JUS

Attorney General Miller has shown much
interest in the case, and seems disposed TO
give every possible consideration 10 the
equitable claims which the settlers put forth.
General Stone will endeavor 10 give all the
evidence and authority he can, that IN his

Crcston's Hay Palace.

CREsToN, Ia, May 5.-[Specal to THE
BEE The advisabiiity of erecting a hay
palace here during fair time, which has been
under discussion for some weeks past, has at
last been taken into consideration by the
Creston District Fair association and COM
mittee duly appointed to look up the cost aud
feasibility of the scheme. 1t is proposed to
make this a special attraction, as we'll as a
means of advertising the growing popularity
of this excellent blue grass country. 1t is
also intended that the structure shall be of
such architectural beauty and dimensions as
will not dlsappoint the expectations of the
most sanguine citizen, nor fail to convince
any of the multitude of visitors that our
grasses are just what they are said to be.
Every bale of hay used in the construction
of the palace is TO be placarded and shipped
to various localities to still further adver-
tse the luxuriant soil of southwestern Iowa.
New organizations in the various localities
are joining in the Blue Grass league daily.
The latest acquisition is Council Bluffs or
ganization, which has subscribed $500.
The district fair, at a recent meeting,
elected the following officers General SUI

commission as postmaster at her West Vir-
gina home. Her appointment was brought
about by an interesting incident. There
was sharp contest for the appointment, all
the applicants being men, till the case was
hung up temporarily in deadlock. One
day West Nirgluian who knew General
Clarkson, called. and showed him the photo
graph of a swect-faced lady.
How would she do for n postmlstress :"
was asked.
"Would she have it!' was the reply.
Yes" answered the caller, "sne wants
it.n
"Well," said General Clarkson, "this is
the solution of the case. Send for her.n
The moment the Observation-Disclosures
eral saw the woman, his impression gained
from the photograph was confirmed. He at
once said "Sit down, madam, and your COM
mission will be made out at once" When
she left the city, she carried away the docu-
ment which gave her possession of the Office.
The general left the city that evening, for
Kentucky to consult some party leaders in
reference to the distribution of federal
patronage in that state and the name of the
lady or her postoliice can not be learned,

.Iowa,s Sorghum Sugar.

DEs MONIES, Ia, May 5.-lSpecial to THE
BEE. THE question of developing the
sorghum sugar in iustry is attracting con-
siderable attention in Iowa, just now. Di-
rector Specr, of the Iowa agricultural exper
iment station, has written to the governor on
the subject, setting forth some strong
reasons why the federal government should
give some encouragement to the industry in
Iowa, as well as in Kansas. 1t is generally
known that some very successful expert
ments, in making sugar from the cane, have
been carried on in Kansas, and the industry
there has attracted very general attention.
But it is not known 50 generally that good
deal has been done in this direction in Iowa.
During the year 1887 there were 1000. 900
gallons of sorghum syrup manufactured in
this state. There is an establishment at
Cedar Falls that has made as high as IL, 200
pounds of amber cane sugar in single sea-
son. 1t has works at Cedar Falls that cost
$4,000 Last fall there were made at that
one place 10000 gallons of the syrup, while
within five miles of there, three other par
ties made last fall $4,000 gallons of the syrup.
This was made from the amber cane, which
brings about S2.25 per ton, when delivered
at the factory with blades on, which makes
it a pretty profitable field crop. Some of
this cane has been analysed at the eXDeri-
mental station at Ames, and taking $50 sep
arate stalks, it was found that the sucrose
in the different stalks varied from to Az
per cent, and that it averaged richer than
Kansas cane. Director Speer says in his
letter that those who have had most eXper-
lence in making amber cane syrup in Iowa,
believe that all that is needed to enable the
state to make sorghum sugar in paying
quantities., is improved machinery and few
experiments by skillful men. The long, dry
autumns of Iowa are very favorable to the
formation of sucrose in sorghum, and 1t is
urged that if the proper amount of attention
were given to the matter the industry
might be made very successful and very
profitable

BosToN, May "a number of prominent

been considering the question of how best to

fit the poor evicted tenants in Ireland
have united upon a plan for carrying
out their purposes. They feel the only hope
of accomplishing anything lies in the posi-

The idea is to establish factory, in which
the evicted tenants could find employment

stock company, selling shares in all parts of
the United States. wherever natives of Ireland
or friends of lreland's cause are found. AS

State Board of Health.

DEs MONIES, Ia. May 4.-TSpecial to THE
BEE. THE semi-annual meeting of the state
board of health in this city the past week
has been one of more than ordinary interest
The board passed upon several questions of
public concern, and took some action that
will undoubtedly conduce to the public good.
The subject of contagious diseases is one
that has received great deal of attention
from the board in the last year, and it re-
ceived some additional attention at this meet
ing. The board made an order that what IS
known as the quarantine period of forty days
shall begin to run from and after the appear
ance of the last case of the disease in COM
munity or "a premises. The rules of disin-
fection in contagious diseases were amended,
and all reference to sulphur as dislnfectant
was stricked out, the board holding that
sulphurous acid gas as commonly used can
not be relied upon for disnfecJion.
The board took very important action
with regard to medical colleges in Iowa 1t
made II ruling that the requirements of all
the medical colleges in this state must in
clude four years course of study as neces-
sary to graduation, and to entitle graduate
to practice medicine in Iowa This raises
the standard of admission to practice
very much, and is intended to
shut off the low graped medical schools that
have been doing large business in turning
out ready -Maue uOCIOfS after DfleI ana
totally insufficient course of study. The re.
Quirements for admission to the bar have
been raised within the last few years, and
the results have proven very beneficial The
board of health think that is quite as i'm
portant that the public be protected against
quack doctors as against quack lawyers So
they have raised the requirements for ad
mission to practice medicine considerably,
and propose TO make il no very easy task to
break into the profession. Their order rela-
400,
until after the class of 1891 has graduated, so
as to let out those who started in good faith
under the old plan.
Hereafter inspectors are prohibited from
putting any brand upon barrels, until after
the barrels are filed with oil. This is to
prevent getting brand on a sample of good
oil. which will then be barreled up with
poorer and more dangerous quality. The
case of condmned oil, that was shipped TO
Corning some time, where the test showed it
TO be unstable in Iowa, has caused the
board TO watch the matter of oil inspection
pretty closely.

Only one more week of life remains for
the Bald-Knobbers confined here unless
Governor Francis interposes to save them
from the gallows. With scarcely one excep-
tion the people of Ozark and Christian

mute their sentences to imprisonment. The
foreman of the jury that convicted Bill
Walker still believes that he ought to hang,
but others of the jury are not of the same

really doubt the intent to commit murder in
the raid that eliminated in the killing of
Green and Edins.

freer from night-raiders of any sort than

FIRED AT PRESIDENT CARNOT
A French Crank Snaps a Blank
Cartridge.
MERELY TO ATTRACT ATTENTION.
Rescued by the Police From the Ex-
cited Populace-Celebrat OF the
Centennial Dawning of the
Great Revolution.


PARIS, May "a man who gives the name
OF Perrin, and who says he is a marine store
keeper, fired u blank cartridge at President
Carnot to-day when the latter was leaving
the Elysee palace to attend the centenary
celebration ut Versailles. Perrin q was
promptly arrested. He was taken to the po-
lice station, where ne explained he had no.
desire to kill the president; he merely wished
to expose the fact that he (Perrin) was the
victim of injustice. The crowd that had
gathered in the neighborhood of the Elysee
to witness the departure of the president be-
came greatly excited and threatened to lynch
the prisoner The police, however, gathered
in force and drove back the indignant citi-
zens.
Perrin complained that he had been un-
justly punished by the governor of Mar
Unique, and had appealed III vain. His
family is in destitute circumstances.
President Carnot and party proceeded
through Chaville. where the president was
enthusiastically greeted. Upon reaching
Versailles the president inaugurated u me-
mortal tabl ct affixed to the building in which
the states general met 100 years ago to-day.
The president and escort then repaired to
the Hall of Mirrors, in the palace, where
there was grand assembage of deputie

of welcome to the president In the course
of his speech he said:
at is no longer the humble deputies of the
third estate, to whom even the privilege of
standing upright was denied, but the elected
representatives of the nation, who bowling
before their freely elected chief, pay tribute
to the great dead to whom we owe our lio-
erty. 1t becomes those old strugglers for
liberty to remind us that revolution be-
queathed us not only doctrines, but lessons.
If the revolution sinned by the audacity of
its dreams, we sin by our want of self
abnegation, by our incomplete knowledge of
our duties, by the hesitation as to our policy.
The date 1899, invites us to realize the union
of hearts in love for our county and its in
stitutions.n
President Carnot replied: "With ardent
hope for the future, | greet in the palace of
monarchy representative of nation that
is now in complete possession of herself;
that is a mistress of her destinies and that is
in the full splendor and strength of liberty.
The first thoughts of this solemn meeting
turn to our fathers. That immortal genera
tion of 1889, by dint of courage and many
sacrifices secured for us benefits which we
must bequeath to our sons as most prec-
ious inheritance. Never can our gratitude
equal the grandeur of the services rendered
by our fathers to France and to the human
race" In conclusion the president said:
''They created a new era in history and
founded modern society. After many cruel
shocks. France has finally broken with the
personal power of one man, whatever title
he may take. She now recognizes as sole
sovereign the laws enacted by the repre-
sentatives of the nation"

BosroN. Mass, May 5.-[Special Telegram
to THE BEE. "A Globe special Of this even
ing says that the recent sinking of the little
steamer Carlotta in the Merrimac river, just
below Mitchelrs Falls, was marked by the
wonderful feat of the bicycllst, James Webb,
and several other wheelmen, who were on
the deck of the steamer. Webb was mounted
on his bicycle doing the "stand stilln act,
when the Carlotta, under full head of
steam. made a rush TO ascend the rapids,
but, before reaching them the boat
was thrown out of her course. Going at II
high rate OF speed, she struck on smooth
ledge which rises out of the water at the foot
of the falls with such force that the boat was
carried half her length on the slippery sur
face. Tho propeller then broke in two on
the rock and the Carlotta sank like a bar of
lead.
Webb's friends all managed to swim
ashore, with no more damage than a thorough
wettlng, but Webb and his bicycle were
thrown over tho side of the vessel and sank
immediately. Webb is thoroughly, at home
in the water, and when he went
overheard, he did not think of let
ting go of his bicycle, as it was
too valuable to lose. The wheel mnst have
slid down between two stones for when the
machine struck the bottom it remained up
right. lnstinctlvely, Webb's feet sought
the pedals, and putting forth all his muscle,
he actually propelled the bicycle over the
heavy sand bottom and up the ledge for a
distance of sixty feet 1t can be easily i'm
agined what cheers greeted the appearance
of his wheel above the water.
Webb has become enthusiastic over his
submarine cycling and says that as soon as
he can devise some way of keeping up a

CHICAGO, May 5.-Dr. p. H. Cronin, a
local physician, somewhat widely known
among the members OF the Ancient Order of
Hibernians, and other Irish societies, disap-
peared last night in mysterious manner
His friends express the belief that he has
been fouly dealt with. A stranger took the
doctor off last night, it is related, ostensibly
to attend an injured man in Lake View.
Since then Cronln has not been
seen. To-day trunk was found
on the prairie near Lake View, containing
a mass of bloopy cotton similar to that
Cronin carried in his surgeons case, and
some hair, said to resemble in color the
doctor's locks. A two column interview
with DR.. Cronin, in printed form, prepared
by himself. was given to the newspapers to-
night by his friends. 1t relates various Cir
cumstances, purporting to show that con-
spiracy of some sort existed to iLjure Cronin
in reputation or person.
