Arrest Of a Lady On the Charge OF

The friends OF Miss Nettie Clark, of
Providence, r. L., who was arrested
IN New York on the 4th inst, on the
charge OF forgery, were greatly sur

Pushed pianist, having received q
European musical education. She
was general fsvorite and has always
enjoyed the best OF regulations. IT
is learned, however, since her arrest,
that for two years past the young
lady, for some strange reason, has
been making every possible effort
to raise money. No cause for
the fraud on the bank can be
assigned unless it was due to n desire

Henry Johns Death.

A special telegram from Mason City,
Iowa, dated the first inst, says the
Harden county tragedy OF seven years
ago, which resulted in the death OF
five men and an endless amount OF
iftigatiou, has not yet -bees,- ssktISd,
and hidden facts which have been
brought to light during the past two
weeks have not only revived interest
in the matter but this interest has as
sumed tangible shape and it Is under
stood that detectives, the best the
country affords. have been set to
work to unravel the dark mystery.
Henry Johns, who was killed in Har-
din county some five years ago, was
an Enelishman, well educated, and
his ambition was to educate his boys.
He had urged and tried in every way
to have thom attend school and fit
themselves for higher stations, offer.
ing to send them to Europe and else
where TO accomplish this pur.
pose but to no avail. Seeing
their lack OF ambition and
the alliances they made with the
Rainsbargers, he became furious and
went to Marshaltown and made his
will, leaving everything but what
would lawfully 90 to his wife, to found
h public institution, and soon after
made this fact known to his family In
an indiscreet fit OF passion. Ia less
than q months time he was murder
ed. lie was q relative OF the Rains
bargess and was very wealthy, his
estate beng something over 5000, 900.
He was shot at and slightly wounded
while going home one night and then
he did not die Tor two weeks or more.
and then was reported to nave died
from the shock, though the doctor
who attended him had said the wound
in the arm was slight and pronounced
him as even past needing attention,
when he suddenly died. Grave
charges were made and nany believers
were found that the hand that failed
to kill by a charge of buckshot ad-
ministered the deadly poison. The
real motive for taking his life has
greatly puzzled the public. On the
one side the Rainsbargers charge that
he was killed by their enemies In or
der to estop a strong moneyed alli.
ance whith they had in him. But it
was well known that he held on to his
fasHey. bag tightly and would in no
wise aid them; it is known, too, that
in the hands OF his heirs, tie estate
would be more easily placed at 1helr
disposal. So this theory was soon
abandoned. The enemies OF the Rains
bargers charged that, with Johns out
OF the way, the vast estate would in
whole or a large part come to the
friends and aid them in extricating
Frank and Nate from the penitentiary
and aid the Others In their nefarious
work. In support OF this last theory
comes q prominent attorney OF Mar
shalltown, who gives the will history
and q motive that has never before
been made public. The will has never
been brought to light. Who killed
Henry Johns, and the motive, will,
therefore, be o matter of renewed in.
terest and speculation. That these
facts have not long been developed is
accounted for by the TACT that probes
sional secrecy has but recently been
removed from the liIs OF the attorney
referred to above.

The type foundry of Marder, Luce

total loss will approximate about
$50, 900. partly covered by insurance.
The department was on hand prompt

playing upon the flames in q very few
minutes. The fire was raging in Mar

rear OF 1873 Nicollet avenue. 1t was
well under way before the flames were
discovered, and the elevator shaft
near the rear wall drew the flames up
into the top stories In an incredibly
short time. Soon they burst out OF
the windows and the roof ana gen.
eral conhagration seemed immi-
nent. Ten minutes after the firemen
arrived the heavy machinery whlch
was locatek upon the upper floors OF

were quenched. The entire type foun-
dry had been wiped out, saving the
wrecked machinery and shafting. The
fire in it's course Fad spread to the
forward end of the building and the
office of the Northwestern Labor I'M
ion was burned considerably. The
loss will probably be $500. On the
ground floor at 1913 the long-estab.
Iisbed pharmacy of George Huhn was
located, which was scorched from the
heat and smoke and damaged by wa

MIssour, On, Crop Ruined.

The Missouri state hoard OF aRricul-
ture has just issued a report on the
crop prospects to date, and the re-
port seems to indicate that the crop
will be considerably below the average.
The prospect is favorable for securing
the wheat crop in excellent condition,
thus securing a high grade OF wheat
for marketing.
Never in the history OF the state has
there been SO poor an oat crop har-
vested as the present one. The Texas
oat louise has spread all over that por-
ton OF the state east and south oi a
line drawn from the northeast to the
south west corner, and in all that re-
gion has done an enormous amount
of damage, completely running a large
portion OF the crop.
Owing Co the long continued and ex-
cessive spring rains IN Southeast Mis-
souri,, much of the corn in that sec-
tion was not planted until late In the
season and will prove q very light
crop.

perimental patches were raised here

III. 4. Oxnard, the head of the firm

that beets grown in this locality will

man IL disposed TO guy his country

at the same time unpleasant way to
the amount OF hayseed which hiscoun-

tryman is warned to keep on the side

his hands in his pockets and his mouth
shut so that when the countryman

and furnishing amusement Tor the
people who know from bis actions

passing over a railroad crossing had
his hat knocked of by the decending
