DEATH OF MRS. SUSAN ROBERTS.

The following notice of the death of
and funeral of Mrs. Susan Roberts,
mother of A. IL. Roberts of this city,
is taken from the Mt. Pleasant Journal
of October 10Th.
Mrs. Susan Roberts died Tuesday
forenoon at her home in this city, of
quick consumption. She had been in
poor health for some time and afflicted
with lung trouble, but had been able to
be about until just day or two before
her death. Susan Mcdonald was born
June 10, 1926, in Marshall. county, West
Virginia. She came to this county in
1887, and in 1916 was ma rried to j. d..
Roberts, who, with the four children
born to them, survives her. Their
married life was spent utmost wholly
on a farm near New Lo ndon, moving
to Mt. Pleasant but two years ago.
The funeral occurred this forenoon,
at the Methodist church, conducted by
DIR. Thos. u. Corkhill, assisted by Rev.
Stoddard. The remains were followed
by large concourse of people who
knew the deceased as one of the sweet
est and purest of christian spirits.
Her children, Theodore l.. Roberts of
this city, Mrs. w. l.. Weller of New
London, VIM. B. Roberts of Platts-
mouth, Nebr., and A. III. Roberts, of
Audubon, Iowa, were all present at the
funeral, also her sister, Mrs. III. T.
Anderson and daughter, of saltwater,
Minnesota. The ladies of the New
London Relief Corps, of which she was
a member, were present in a body.
The remains, followed by the loving
and grief stricken friends, were laid to
rest in Forest Home cemetery.
At an early age Mrs. Roberts united
with the Methodist church and has al
ways been an exemplary member of
the same. The memory of her kindly
words and loving acts will ever linger
as benediction with those who knew
her best. The many friends of the
family extend their heartfelt sympathy
to the surviving members of the bro
ken home circle.

THE SCHOOLS CLOSED.

AT a meeting of the school board
held Monday afternoon. it was decided
to close the schools for week, OF
longer if deemed necessary OH account
of the prevalence of scarlet fever. One
child, who has since died was taken
sick at school and other exposed child
rem were in attendance. There are at
present the following families quaran-
tined: p. Stanton's, ID. Z. Repass', Lee
Hudler's, Mrs. Bertha Smiths and Mrs.
w. Poulsen's on account Of scarlet
fever and one case of diphtheria at Mr..
Morey's.
Strict observance of the quarantine
rules should be made by all, as this is
the one method of preventing the
spreading of this dread disease. Every
effort is being made by the authorities
and parents and others should lend all
assistance possible by doing what they
can toward keeping up the general
health

THE MURDER CASE.
Trial Of VIM. Mclaughlin for the Murder Of
Frank ii. Leib.

The scenes in the district court room
this week are ones to be long remem
bered. The room has been filled to
oyerhowing, the aisles, the interior OF
the bar, the doors of the back offices
and the space back of the clerks desk
being packed, even the space on the
Judges bench hi.s been encroached up
on. In the back part and sides or the
room people are standing and eagerly
endeaVoring to hear the proceedings.
The charmed circle in the bar, which
is usually sacred to lawyers and law
books, is packed with the ladies OF the
town, who seem much interested in the
trial. The crowd embraces hundreds
of Audubon's best citizens, all earnest
in the interest they show in the case.
The prisoner, the lawyers, the wit
nesses, the Judge and the jury all make
picture which viii not soon fade from
the memory.
The state rested at 3p. M, Monday.
The trial at that time having extended
five days and six hours. About thirty
witnesses were examined by the sIate,
which is less than the number examln'
ed by the grand jury. In this time the
state tried toprove " The Killing OF
Leib by Mclaughlin. (2) The facts
that Mclaughlin, and others, went TO
the school house that night expecting
trouble. (3) That Mclaughlin made
threats, most if not all, of which were
coupled with the condition, If he were
attacked. (D That bitter feeling de-
PENDANT had for .Leib. (5) That stab
bling was in an ARRAY between LelD
and Case. 6) That Mclaughlin and
Others was disorderly at the, school
house. If the evidence would stop
here, we would suppose verdict would
certainly be given for manslaughter,
and possibly for murder in the second
degree. The effort of the de-
Tense has been to weaken
this, which leads many to ex-
meet that the verdict Will not be greater
than manslaughter, the punishment
for which cannot exceed ten years IN
the penitentiary. 80
This case is being tried with eleven
men on the Jury, the twelfth, Mr.. Geo.
Charters, being unable to proceed on
account of his health, the defendant
agreed to proceeding with the trial with
eleven Jurors. This is undoubtedly
legal in this state according to the de.
cisions of the supreme court In the oist
and 10Th Iowa. Outside this state the
weight of authority being that the jury
must in every case consist OF twelve
men. ,,..u,
noon. The witnesses for the defense
all swear that the fighting was forced
ON Mclaughlin, and tended to prove
self de tense. Defendants Jones, Mnsh,
rush, Case and lastly Mclaughlin were
examined. The evidence for the de-
tense trengthens the opinion the YER
dict will be manslaughter, with posi-
biiity of murder in the second degree.
The case has been conducted on the
part of the state by Assistant County
ATTORNEY Wonn, and it is only fair TO
saw that Mr.. Wonn has made for HIM
self many friends in the way in which
he has conducted the case. His treat
ment of witnesses has been with the
4 utmost kindness and courtesy, and his
\ bearing throughout has been in the

our schools on account of the scarlet
fever. The state board is opposed to
closing schools unless an absolute cpl
demic prevails, and hold that care on
the part Of teachers and strict observ-
ance of quarantine rules is sufficient to
prevent any spread of disease. No ex
cessive fear OH the part of parents is
called for as both the school board and
the city authorities will do everything
possible to prevent the spread of dis
ease. No new cases of scarlet fever
have appeared and it is safe to say that
the majority of children will be safer
in school than on the streets or in pub
lie places in town.

Herr Won Heyden, the German minis
ter Of agriculture, declares that the
proper way to relieve the distress now
prevailing in Germany, particularly in
the agricultural districts, is to restore
silver to the monetary system of the
country. This shows how the silver
campaign Of education is progressing.
Five years ago the statement Of the Ger
minister would have been hooted.
Germany demonetized silver because she
was gorged with gold received through
the war indemnity paid her by France.
The conditions are different now and
everybody is suffering except the money
lenders. Germany will be demanding
an international monetary conference
sre long.

Its Doors Were Thrown Open to the Pub
lie 10 o'clock Monday Morning.
The doors Of the pioneer national
bank Of Montana, the First National of
Helena, were reopened for business
Monday morning, after being closed for
nearly six months, says the Independent.
The announcement was made a few DAYS
ago that the First National would open
Monday, and promptly at 10 o'clock the
sign: "Bank Open From 10 a. m. to 3
p. M" was displayed. Immediately the
people began to pour in, many to extend
their congratulations, but a larger num-
Der to illustrate their confidence in the
institution by depositing their money.
When noon arrived more than 100000
had been deposited, and at three o'clock
the total deposits had grown to $4,000.
On the other hand the Withdrawals
amounted to $4,000. Had all the de-
mand liabilities of the bank been pre-
sented for payment Monday they would
have only taken $4,000 of the S5OO,OOO
in cash in the banks vaults to have paid
them. The old-time customers of the
First were out in force, and there
was no installing the heartiness and
genuineness Of their congratulations.
Many Of them had done business with
the First from early days, and they
could not feel at home elsewhere. Some
stopped at the receiving %teller's window
to leave their money, but the majority
first went to shake hands with "Sam"
and to tell him how pleased they we're
to get "home" again. Then after a little
fun, OF the remark, II knew the First
would come out all right" they would
take their deposits to the teller, and
after getting their books back walk out
with an expression that seemed to say,
"The country is all right. now that the
First is doing business again" And
they had every reason to fell as they did,
because they knew the First had gone
through a severe trial and had come out
as strong and solid as it ever was, re-
tanning not only the confidence of it's
friends in Montana, but also that of the
national government, remaining as it
has always been, a United States gov
eminent depository.

Mr.. Osborn, Populist secretary of state
Of Kansas, has a plan which, he believes,
will relieve the world from poverty, and
ne describes the plan in a circular letter
10 the public. In brief, he would pass
laws limiting the hours of a days work
10 two. We would all like to work only
two hours a day, and that far our hearts
are with Secretary of State Osborn. Put
most of us will wait till we see how some
body else makes the plan go before
v%enturing to adopt it ourselves. Secre-
tary Osborn holds that overproduction is
the u of restitution. He says that
n man can do with modern machinery
az much labor as 90 could do rs wears
ago. All the 20 keep working on as hard
as they can. however, producing manu-
featured articles and crops. Then when
all the world is o~verstocked it must wait
till the articles are worn out and the de-
mand catches up to the supply. To obvi-
ate TINS he would reduce the hours of la
Dor, giving two hours work a day to all
mankind all their lives. Well, a soon as
people can earn enough money to sup
port themselves as they desire to be sup
by working two hours a day they
vii gladly consent to these hours of la
oor-not before.

Harrison on Military Training.

Ex-President Harrison writes to The
Century Magazine that he heartily ap-
proves the movement to make the mill
tary drill an exercise in the common
schools. Besides its value as a method of
physical training he believes it would be
the making Of our state militia. He says
the military taste and training acquired
by boys at school would cling to them
when they reached manhood and carry
n best young men into the national
guard organizations. making of those Or
CARNATIONS reliable c~onservators of
public order and ready and competent
defenders Of the national honor"
One point touched by Mr.. Harrison is
well worth noting. 1t is that since our
civil war wars pace has greatly quick
ened," and the arms now in use demand
a trained soldier. We would be much
more helpless as to the rank and file of
our armies now than we were in 1861,
because SO much more is demanded Of
the soldier. Mr.. Harrison says of the
military drill:
1t is good in every aspect Of it-good for the
boys. good Tor the schools and good for the
country. A free, erect, graceful carriage of
the body is an acquisition and a delight. 1t
has a value in as well as in war.
Arms and legs are distressing appendages to a
boy under observation until he has been taught
the use of them in repose. The chin Is too
nefghborly with the chest. and the eyes find
the floor too soon. They need To have the Is
PAGES marked of. The sluggish need to be
3uickened and the quick taught to stand, the
wilIful to have no will and all to observe fast.
The Inspirations need to learn that there are
conditions where debate is inadmissible, the
power and beauty there are in a company
moved by one mar and as one man.
A military drill develops the whole man,
head, chest, arms and legs propOrtionf.ely,
and 20 promotes symmetry and corrects the
excuses OF other forms Of exercise. 1t teaches
quickness Of eye and car. hand and foot: quail
hes men to step and act in unison; teaches sub
ordination, and. best Of all. qualities a man to
serve his country. The flag now generally
floats above tine schoolbouse, and what more
appropriate than that the boys should be in
structed In the defense Of ifS Under our sys-
tenn we shall never have a large standing army,
and our strength and safety are In q general
dissemination Of military knowledge and train
ing among the people. What the man and citi-
zen ought TO know in order 10 the full dis
chargs Of his duty TO his country should be i'm
parted TO ths boy.

Those who are forced to accept aid
this winter should take it cheerfully and
thankfully for just so long as they are
absolutely forced to do so-no longer.
Then after they get upon their feet they
car make return for the kindness shown
them in their hour of need by extending
u helping hand to some other poor soul
who is temporarily down. So the links
IN the chain of human brotherhood will
be built IL after another and kept bright.
