Not Hard for one Used TO "Toting Bar

An athletic old colored man, who in
his youth was employed in a sugar re-
finery in New Orleans, is now helper
in n bicycle store uptown.
When he is not otherwise employed it
is his duty to give beginners their first
lessons. The school of instruction is in
the street, and almost every evening
Uncle Eph may be seen steadying the
wheel for some uncertain novice. The
work is not easy, and only a very power
full fellow could stand it so we'll as the
aged but well preserved darl<y does.
The other day there came a new pupil
TO the bicycle store. 1t was a lady past
40, still quite fair but undcniably fat.
She stated her case very diffidently;
said she thought she was past the BIZ
cycle riding age, and that she feared
she would never succeed in mastering
the wheel, but the family doctor had
prescribed n bicycle. So there she was.
1t was Uncle Eph who was assigned
10 give her the first lesson. No cavalier
could have been more gallant He
showed her how to mount and what to
do with her hands and feet. Then for
one Woodworking hour the mighty old
Hercules kept that wheel upright, 20

STRONG CASE AGAINST Al BULL.
Damaging Facts Appear I'm His Com
nection with Maud Strawn.

CHEROKEE, Ia, Feb. 24.-(Spec cial "A.
a. Bull, who was held to the grand jury,
charged with being responsible for the death
cf Maud Strawn of Sheldon, is behind the
bars of the county Jail at Primghar and is
enjoying anything but peaceful state of
mind. He exhibits considerable nervousness
and declines to talk. other than to pro-
claim his innocence whenever the subject is
mentioned to him. Parties who are firm in
the belief that Bull is guilty say that a
confession is not unlocked for; in fact, such
move on the part OF Bull at any time
would not surprise those whose duty 1t is to
watch over him. Should Bull confess the
crime 1t would be necessary To place an extra
guard around the Jail in order to prevent
a lynching, for public opinion is so strong
against the prisoner that but to know he
was the murderer would surely cause an up
rising
The testimony introduced in evidence
proved conclusively that Maud Strawn was
outraged and murdered, and draws such a
damaging circumstantlal chain, around the
accused that II will take an uncommonly
strong alibi to break one solitary link
Morrow, the party who was arrested at the
same time Bull was, testified that Bull told
him he was going to the Winters house to
get some one to go out and keep house for
him a few days. and that Monday after
school. February 3, he went TO Winters
Several neghbors saw Bull at the Winters
place that evening, ana teStlhed that When
not at school, s,ss Strawn was there alone,
the Winters family being in the country.
The peddlers who were brought back on
suspicion were released. as there was no
evidence against them.
Detectives are at work on the case, and
1t is expected that there Will be more i'm
portant evidence to be heard when Bull is
brought before the court for trial.
There Is tall: OF placing Bull in the sweat
box and submitting him to a severe siege
of questioning in an effort to make him tell
all. There is much speculation as to the
outcome should this method be adopted
The excitement over the terrible tragedy
has not suhsided. and groups OF citizens can
be seen at any time, gathering on street
corners and along country roads, discussing
the dreadful fate Of beautiful Maud Strawn.
New evidence of a startling nature de-
veloped tonight in the Strawn murder mys-
terry that duplicates enc Spangler, who was
arrested today and jailed. Judge Ladd re-
Leased Bull from Jail upon the promise of his
counsel that he would appear before the dis
trlct court upon further notice. He had
been at liberty but few hours when he
was rearcested and again placed behind the
bars. Spangler was seen with Bull Wednes-
day, February 8, and it is thought he can
clear up the mystery surrounding the tragic
death of Maud Strawn if he could tell what
he knows.
