September 29.-The September term of
Essex County Court opened here on
Tuesday the l 5th inst. Hon. Lovcland
Munson presiding. AS there was but one
case set for jury the prospect was that
the term would be short one. but that
case, Conway VS.. Fitzgerald, occupied
more than a week, being given TO the
jury the next Tuesday afternoon. 1t was
closely contested case. Dale and
Stafford for plaintiff, and Hon. Geo. N.
Dale and II. G. Bates for defendant, and
resulted in substantially a verdict for the
plaintiff, The grand jury did not finish
their work until Friday morning and the
result was the finding of seven bills
against different parties. One state case
was tried and the usual amount of court
business done, and the court adjourned
on Wednesday afternoon, the term being
the longest of any held in this county for
years.

During 1896, up to September
/, the government of the United
States has coined II, 212,412 full
legal tender silver dollars. 1t has
in the past eight months coined
So, 1S1, TIA more silver than was
coined from the foundation of
the government down to 1873,
and is even now coming silver at
the rate of So, 7OO,O0Oper month.
And yet the people are asked to
believe that there is a conspiracy
to strike down silver, and that
hard times have come because
the government has refused since
1878 to give the country enough
of the white metal!

Stole II Without reason

A middle-aged woman who gave the name
OF Brown was arrested last night charged
with stealing a box Of flower and vegetable
seeds from the grocery store Of w. s.
Homer. The seeds were contained in the
usual display box and had been left on
the sidewalk in front of the store.
The woman was seen to pick up the box
and carry 1t away. At the station she said
she had been in the city but few days,
and came here from Omaha with her hus-
band, who was a massage nurse. They had
taken rooms temporarily in the old Colo
RADIO house ON Lower Broadway. The woman
could give no explanation of her strange
theft and admitted that she had no earthly
use for the stun, nor could she tell why
she stole it. She was locked up to await
an examination today.

The trouble was located at 200 Harmony
street. John Benin, who is undergoing treat
ment for cancer, is temporarily stopping
there. The disease is located in the man S
hip, and for weeks he has been suffering
the most excruciating pain. Yesterday morn
ing. while trying to arise from bed, he fell
against chair, striking on the diseased por-
ton of his body. The pain was so intense
that he became temporarily insane. and, seiz-
ing the chair, he smashed window leading
ont upon an upper porch and gave vent to
the piercing shrieks that aroused the neigh
borhood, while clinging to the railing Of the
porch.
Kindly hands assisted the maddened suf-
ferer back to his bed and a physician was
summoned. Opiates were administered to re-
lieve him and for time he became quiet.
But his agony had dethroned reason and
during the day he became so violent that
1t was necessary to send him to st. Ber-

OVER ONE HUNDRED YEARS OLD.
Pleasant Taylor, One of IOwa's EnrIi-
est settlers, is Dead.


One hundred and four years of life, with
100 OF 1t spent in the activities of boyhood
and manhood in rugged health and in the
full enjoyment Of all his faculties, is bless
ing vouchsafed to but few people in this
world. Pleasant Taylor, who died at his
home in Taylor Station, near Oakland, this
county, on Saturday night was one of the
few who have passel the century mark. He
was born in Tennessee in 1892. and was the
son OF old Benjamin Taylor Of colonial and
revolutionary fame, and related to the pres
ent reigning Taylcr family of Tennessee He
was married in 1920, and came to Iowa in
1912. In 1850 he took up his residence in
Pottawattamie county. All of his life he
i've. He acquired title to one Of the finest
farms in the state. 1t comprises 4SO acres
lying near the town of Taylor Station. For
the last half Of the century he has been
one OF the hardest working farmers in the
county, as well as the most progressive and
prosperous. His residence in Iowa antedates
all railroads and almost everything else that
has helped to make the nineteenth century
the golden age of the world. For years he
was station agent at Taylor in the days OF
the stage coaches, and was a prime mover
in many OF the enterprises that in early
days fixed public attention upon Council
Bluffs.
The funeral will occur today, and It will
probably be one Of the largest in the history
of the eastern part Of the county. The old
patriarch was the father OF family of five
children, four of whom are living
