Prohibition Fauarrcrsm in Iowa.

DEs MONIES, June 2G.-Frank Pierce,
the searcher, who last evening shot Terry
Chambers, was today arrested, charged
with attempted murder, and held under
81, 400 bonds. Chambers is doing in a
lair way to recover. The crime has
aroused anew the indignation Of the PEG
pie Of this city at the men and methods
employed in the enforcement Of the pro-
hibitory' law. ln no city Of the union has
there been so much OF official insOlence,
tyranny and brutality as in Des Moines
during the last six years. Old man
Duerr, Lloyd, Hardy Chambers, and four
or five oth,rs nave been shot during that
period by officers pretending to act in dis
charge of their official dutv.' The first vic
tim, Andreas Duerr, was beaten down and
left to weller in his blood because he re-
sented Il constable's entrance to his place
OF business. These coustables are not
not alone to blame The policy of pro
hibition found in them fitting instruments,
and in every act OF violence they have
been sustained by men prominent in the
church and in society. who have argued
that this summary way of dealing with
the violators of the law, although very
much like murder, would serve to deter
other violators OF the law by keeping be-
fore them the fear of a similar fate.

WASHINGTON, June &c. Among the
bills'reported from committees and placed
on the calendar was the house bill author
ing the secretary OF the interior to submit
to congress proposals for the sale of the
western part of the Crow Indian Reser
walton, Montana,
The house bill for the admission Of
Wyoming as a state was taken up, and
Jones, OF Arkansas, addressed the senate.
He declared himself in favor of the ad
mission OF Wyoming and all the other
territories except Utah, when they had
sufficient population and sufficient wealth
to justify the assumption of a state gov
eminent, but he was unwilling to see
Wyoming admitted in the way now pro-
posed, and proceeded to state his reasons
why. In his opinion the passage of the
pending bill would be exceedingly unwise
There was no authority for holding the
constitutional convention, Jones said, and
he opposed the participation of women
in a vote OF the constitution. He OPP
posed the constitutional provisions for
woman suffrage, for holding real estate by
aliens and Tor compulsory education. In
conclusion Jones declared himself in ia
vor of passing an enabling act for all the
territories except Utah and admitting
them as states after they had complied
with the provisions of the act, and he
moved ns a substitute for the pending bill
one TOR such an enabling act. In the
further course of bis arguments Jones re-
ferred to the wives of Mormons in Wy
oming and Idaho voting He said in an
swer to Morgan that he did not know
how many wives a Mormon had to vote
with him.
Stewart replied to Jones and said it
would be time enough to act in the cases
of other territories when they were before
the senate. They were not before it now.
Reagan opposed the bill. He argued
against the provision for woman suffrage,
the effect of which was, he said, to make
men of women and co-relatively to make
OF men. 1t was only lately that
the people had become wiser than their
Creator and wiserthan all the generations
that bad preceded them.
AT the close of Reacan's speech an un,
Outstanding was reached that the voting
on the bill and amendments should be

Edmunds wanted it understood that il
did not amount to an order vi the senate.
There ought to be one body in the coun
try, he said, where there was freedom o.

the people to 20 conduct elections as to
make the charge impossible of belief 10
the future? 1t was everywhere in North
ern circles believed that the black vote of
the Southern states was suppressed, and
the fifteenth amendment nulliied.
Oates OF Alabama, Crisp of Georgia
and LAWS of Mississippi and Others took
occasion at this point to state that cleo
tons in their districts were perfectly fair.
Rowell declared that in some districts
OF the South bodies OF armed men went
from poll to poll and destroyed ballot
boxes; in Others boxes we're stuffed and
the true ballots thrown way; in others
military companies were organized to fire
canno morning and night ito let the
darkies know there was going to be a fair
election" cabins OF negroes were fired
into, and if that were not successful and
the negroes turned out the officers made
the polls a target for target practice.
Oates of Alabama a-ked for the names
of the districts, aud Rowell named three
in Mississippi and one in Arkansas.
This brought McRae TO his feet with a
strong denial. and soon Rowell and Brock
enridpe were talking at the same time
When quiet was restored ROwell finished
his speech, and Lehlbach (Republican)
spoke against the bill Such a law would
bring about a conflict of authority and a
deplorable state OF affairs.
Tucker of Virginia spoke against the
bill, and the house adjourned.

Frisco PugIIists In the Dumps.

SAN Francisco, June 20 This city
which for the last year has furnished the
main pugilistic news for the country, must
now be counted out, as even the fighters
themselves admit that prize fighting has
received its quietus. Today there was a
large gathering Of disguised gladiators at
the California Athletic club. La Blanche
and Mitchell we're especially indignant, as
they were to fight Friday and were in
the pink of condition. Fitz>immons. the
Australian, who so easily whipped Billy
Mccarthy and found hackers willing to
put him against Dempsey. feels that ne
has lost a golden opportunity to make a
fortune in a few months, as the Califor-
mia club was ready to put up a large
purse for him, Peter jackson is also in
trouble. as his contract binds him to fight
nowhere except in the California club
rooms. Meanwhile the members OF the
California club are resigning, twelve ha =
ing alre ady sent in letters and a score
more will follow, The directors propose
now to test the ordinance against prize
fighting BY having two cheap sluggers
contest in the ring, as they can get no
first-class men to risk falling into the
hands of the police.

CAIRO, June 26.-Last night a pretty
young woman, dressed in deep mourning.
stepped up to Jack Sullivan and showed
a pistol against his breast. Sullivan
struck the weapon away aud Wrestled
with the woman to take the pistol from
her. Others interfered and the woman
was soon disarmed. Seeing herself de-
feated she broke down and cried bitterly.
The woman Is known as Mary Walker,
from Vienna, Ill. She has been at the
European Hotel some DAYS. Her reason
for trying to shoot Sullivan is that he had
been telling stories about her. No arrests
were made

The ordinary woman arises from her
bed in the morning, makes the daily
round of her duties, sets her house in
order, gets Der children off to school and
settles down for a quiet day of sewing
or reading. On an occasional afternoon
the makes a shopping excursion or core
off a list of calls. She moves generally
among the same set of people. Day after
day she stays within the home walls and
s;es only the familiar family friends, the
postman, the grocer boy, with now and
then the extraordinary excitement Of a
day with the dressmaker.
What a contrast to this humdrum is
the daily existence of the man. His
Journey to town by steam or horse car,
Or his walk along the busy street, is full
Of incident md Of interchange. Before
ne has reached his place of business in
the morning he has, perhaps, discussed
the topics of the day with a half dozen
different persons. His daily occupation
brings him into contact with men of a
dozen different nations, of a dozen diff
ferent creeds, in Il dozen different strata
of society. He may nOG be aware of it,
but there is in his mind Il constant sift-
ing analysis, judgment of human char
acter. The constant shifting of the
kaleidoscope shows him lives in all sorts
of combinations, broadens his views and
takes from him that intensity of feeling
which belongs to and helps
TO set aside personal feeling in forming
his opinions.-Good Housekeeping.
