Clear Case Against Baxter.


Baxter, alias Webb, had his preliminary
examination yesterday before Justice Field
on the charge of being connected with the
diamond robbery at John Metcalf'3 house on
the Crescent City road little less than three
years ago. Baxter has had a checkered career
ever since the crime was committed, having
spent at least year of the time in the Iowa
penitentiary and no one but himself knows
how much of the remainder has been en-
joyed behind prison bars. When he was
arrested in Lincoln several weeks ago he
had a complete set of safeblowers' tools in
his possession, and there was some reason
for believing that he had been implicated in
the robbery of a large number of postotfices
in Iowa. Yesterdays hearing seemed to
have pretty definitely settled the fact that
he will have another chance to get ac-
quainted with the officials at the Fort Madi-
son penitentiary.
The most interesting testimony of the day
was that of John Steilen who used to live
on the shore of the river near road which
leads directly across the country from Met
calf's house. On the night of the robbery he
had a visit from three men, who asked him
to take them across the river In his boat.
He rowed them across and identified one of
them as Baxter, whom he had seen before.
The other two were drunk and somewhat
indiscreet as to their remarks. On their
way across they joked Baxter about
an experience that he had had earlier
in the evening and Steilen remembers that
they referred to some woman pulling a veil
off his face. This story dovetails with that
of Mrs. Metcalf, who testified that she
pulled the mask off the face of one of the
robbers whom she identified us Baxter, and
makes out very strong case against BaX-
ter, whose previous record will not help him
much. There is considerable doubt as to the
stolen diamonds being worth 800, as Mrs.
! Metcalf claimed, or any considerable
| fraction of that sum, but for the purposes of
| the trial that amount Is both convenient and
| interesting. The arguments of the attorneys
| are not yet complete, and continuance was
| taken at the hour of fevening adjournment
| until this morning.

inch plank, SO that it viii strike all five
timbers, and if one plank is not long
enough splice on another.
"Fasten the diagonal plank in place,
driving two spikes at every intersection
OF brace, post, cap and sill. 1t makes
better job TO spike a second brace on the
opposite side of the bent, but this re
quires considerable work and is unneces-
sary. Slide the bent down the bank into
the water and tow or pole into such
position that the end which is to form
the mudsill shall be in the middle Of the
stream and parallel with the current
Then sink the mudsill end by piling on
rocks or old iron and drive down two
heavy iron bars or stout wooden stakes
TO prevent kicking out sidewise. AT this
point a light hand tackle would come in
nicely, and if we are lucky enough to
have one we can fasten it to the cap in
the usual manner and up end the bent,
holding it from turning clear over by
guy line previously fastened to the cap
and pulling in the opposite direction. If
the tackle is wanting, then square lift
with lot Of men and pikepoles as in
olden times will enable us to do the
work. As soon as the bent is up ended
we lay across the two inch plank for floor
joist, spacing them two feet apart with
one end resting ON the shore and the
other on the cap. As soon as this is
done we lay crosswise Of the joist a course
of the two inch plank in hand for a floor,
after which we can pass over the ioist
and floor from the center of the bridge
to build the second half. This completes
the bulk of our temporary bridge. but it
is well to lay line of square timber, or
pile of plank over the outside joist at
each side of the roadway TO hold down
the floor and act as wheel guard, and
we shall probably have to grade up the
earth little at both ends before teams
can pass from the earth roadway on to |
the plank flooring of the bridge"

a
tion For Temporary Bridge.
LET us suppose that freshet has swept
away bridge on one of our well tray
eled roads, says John n. Ostrom IN
Good Roads, land that the scene of the
washout is one where the banks are too
steep and soft or the water too deep or
all combined to permit of fording. The
people will expect us to repair the crossing
at once, so that travel and trade may go
on without the necessity of driving long
distance around in order to reach points
on opposite sides of thestream. You have
been elected to meet just such an emer-
gency, and it therefore stands you in
hand to inform yourself fully Of all the
secrets of the art. The frame bent is the
quickest remedy, and if material is at
hand it need take us but few hours to
provide a crossing over which teams
may pass in safety.
