FerdInani de soto's Body.

Ferdinand de Soto, it is said, wa.
buried in a tree trunk which was
sunk in the Mississippi River in 1912
Oliver Rigsby of Louisiana, who has
recently been in New Orleans, told a
reporter there that he and two friends
were camping out near Port Hudson
in 1858, just after great rise in the
river. Among the drift along shore
was an old tree trunk, portions of
which they used to light their camp
fire. Finding it soft and spongy. and
evidently hollow, one of the party be-
gan chipping it with a hatchet, and
finally drew out from the opening a
rusty sword. 1--WE quickly demolished
the log" says Mr.. Rigshy, ''and found
it to contain a helmet, badly cor
roded, and human skeleton, that of
a man apparently six feet tall. On
one of the bony fingers was large
seal ring, and about the neck was a
small chain to which was suspended
a bronze cruciflX. We carried the
skeleton inland a quarter OF mile
and buried it on a little knoll be-
tween two large live oak trees. Iurin
kept the sword and Davis apprOpri-
ated the crucifix." The narrator of
this story suggests that possibly these
were De Soto's remains; but he is
careful not to make any claim

together When you separate them
the sticky substance VIII be found to
have formed very artistic designs Tc-
sembling exactly impressions OF fo-s

You will be surprise at the variety
of designs you can obtain in this
manner. They will vary according
to the greater or less thickness Of the
substance used and the amount Of
strength eXerted. In separating the
sheets Of glass, if you make one sl.u
lightly over the other the branches
Of the seaweed will be long and
parallel to one another If you twist
slightly one of the plates the branches
will have very graceful arched ap-
pearance. The branches will always
run in the direction caused by the
movement of the plates.
The design seen here was obtained
with the help 0: printers ink. To
preserve such design it is only neces.

preaching the crossing, and gave
warning signals in time for him to
have needed them, but for some rea-
son he kept on. The horse succeeded
in getting across, but the wagon was
struck by the locomotive and demol-
ished. The train was running at the
rate of twenty miles an hour, and it
was feared that Arnold was killed.

Milwaukee, Jan. 22.-At the meeting
Of the Vesselmen and Steamboatmen's
associations the following resolutions
We're adopted:
We charge that large number of
vessels and steamboats, are unsea-
worthy and not properly manned; that
their crews are Inexperienced, and in
nine cases out of ten the life-boats are
ieaky and rotten.
I'VE charge the hull and boiler in
spectors with being in league with
vessel owners and captains in giving
steamboats, lictnses, when the said in
spectors know they are not seaworthy;
we also charge hull inspectors with
being very lenient with candidates
seeking pilots licenses, that is, pro-
viding they have got strong letters
from vessel owners and captains,
I'VE charge captains and vessel own
ers and mates with encouraging Cana
dams TO come over and ill the places
of American citizens"
The meeting was held for the pur-
pose Of forming the steamboatmen and
vesselmen into one organize ton. which

PROHIBITION HARD HIT.
Amendment Of 1882 Finally Knocked
Out in Iowa

Dies MoineS Jan. 222.-The supreme
court today decided the famous case
of J. a. Harvey VS.. w. NJ. Mcfarland,
secretary Of state, involving the con
Stitutionality Of the prohibitory amend
mcnt Of the stale constitution adopted
in 1882.
Ten years ago the supreme court de-
cidcd that owing TO certain errors in
the journals of the general assembly
the amendment was not constitutionally
adopted and therefore void. The State
Temperance alliance found proofs that
these errors were in the journals only
and that all the constitutional require
ments were complied with.
This action was brought by mandam-
us proceedings to compel the secretary
Of state to furnish plaintiff copy of
the amendment, the alliance hoping
thus to get the old question before the
supreme court. THAT tribunal, how
ever, refuses to reopen the question
and holds that Secretary Mcfarland
cannot be compelled to decide as TO
the legal effect Of any of the records in
his custody, ald he is just as much
bound by the decision of this court
that the alleged amendment was not
legally adopted as any other public
officer or private citizen of the state"
This decision puts a final quietus on
constitutional prohibition in Iowa and
leaves nothil" Of prohibition but the
statute which will probably be re-
pcalcd by the present legislature.

Camden has been made defendant in

counsel for Miss Hattie Kaighn for
ill-trea tment at the hands of the po-
lice.
Miss kaighn'S intellect is slightly
clouded and she is of very hysteri
cal nature. On the night of January l
three men lured her to a vacant lot
at Ninth street and Kaighn's avenue
and attempted to assault her. The
girls cries attracted the attention of
Policeman Richardson, who after
chasing the men away, placed her in
a patrol wagon and sent her to the
city hall.
She was locked in Il cell over night
and released without hearing early
the next morning. Miss Kaighn's
mother claims that her daughted has
suffered from nervous prostration ever
since she was released from Jail and
brings the suit to recover damages for
her suffering as Il result of the police
