DEs MONIES, Iowa, Feb. 27.-In his inaugural
address, which the nevly-elected democratic
governor, Horace Boies, delivered this after
noon, he proceeded to take up one by one the
public questions at present agitating the peo-
pie of Iowa, discussing them at great length.
Coming to the question Of prohibition, the
governor stated that the prohibitory laws had
been despised, disregarded and ignored in most
of the large cities of the state from the day Of
its birth down to the present time The
use OF intoxicating liquors as a beyer-
age had not been diminished. Millions and
millions of the capital of citizens had been in
vested in the business and then il had been
coldly wiped out without one effort to COM
pensate those who were ruined thereby. When
ever the law had been enforced owners had
been impoverished In his judgment the chief
obstacle to the enforcement of the law lay in
the fact that il was q cruel violation of one of
the most valuable of human rights"

LEXINGTON, KY., Feb. 27.-Thomas o'Brien,

Shea, pretty girl, secretly. At the same time
he became engaged to a Miss Laughlin and
also kept mistress named Lizzie Adams
Last March 1t became evident TO Bette that
her marriage must be made public. She be-
sought O'Brien time after time to acknowledge
her as his wife before the world,
but he put her of. The time
he had set to marry Miss Laughlin was drawing
near. he was also deeply attached to the
Adams woman. On April 10 last the body Of
Bette Shea, clad in her night clothes, was dis
covered lying in her room. She had
been beaten to death with a heavy piece
OF lead, which was afterward found
at the house of Lizzie Adams where O'Brien
was arrested All through his trials OBrien
maintained a stolid indifference. The circum-
stances pointed to him SO strongly that neither
the court of appeals nor the United States Su-
preme Court would grant a writ Of error.
