Logan, Nov. 25.-Judge George w.
Wakefield Friday sentenced Arch Wood
to the penitentiary for six years and
fined him 81 on the charge of man
slaughter. Wood is young man who
lives near Dunlap, Ia, and In company
with John Mitchell and Evan Mize, on
the evening Of April II last, assaulted
and brutally hammered and kicked to a
state Of insensibility an old gentleman
by the name Of Chevaliar who after

dict as stated. The defendant was
given three days in which to complete
an appeal. with bonds fixed at $4,000.
Robert Donaldson was sentenced to

with intent to kill. The plaintiff in this
case was Willard NJ. Girton, who was
assaulted and shot twice with revolv-
err. one shot taking effect in his wrist
and the other in the feshy part OF the
back, the difficulty occurring over the
fact that Donaldson was staying with
the wife of plaintiff and doing chores,

Same house, and plaintiff and his wife
had not been living together for some
time. Donaldson was given five years
in Fort Madison. He has already

Clarksville. Nov. 25.-Ever since the
B., c. r. & N. railroad was built
through Clarksville that company has
snubbed 1t. When the road was built a
large tax and cash bonus was given it,
with the understanding that this be
made division point. But as soon as
the company got things into it's own
hands it's officers changed their minds
and laid out and established the town
OF Greene, making that place a division
point, leaving Clarksville to hold the
bag. The course the road started out
in has been followed with more or less
persistence ever since.
Its latest slap at Clarksville has been
to get out a time card that cuts out
GAINESVILLE on all night train service. or
practically so. The citizens, and espe-
cially the business men, registered a
vigorous protest against this move, in
asmuch as the service that has been
taken from Clarksville has been grant
ed to LaPorte, Greene, Rockford, Nora
Junction and other points of no more
Importance. Superintendent Goodell
and other officials of the road visited
this place Wednesday and made bluff
at trying to explain why the town was
Disseminated against, but instead OF
patching up peace the matter was made
worse. For some unknown reason the
company has it in for Clarksville and
the official visit made this fact very APP
parent. Trains going south have to
stop at the depot platform for the Chi
cago Great Western crossing, and those
north bound are not better situated
And yet the company refuses passen-
ger business from this place.
1t is poor game that two can not
play at, and the business men are now
having their shipments routed over
competing lines. They realize that ii
the b., C. r. & N. does not want pas
senger traffic they can hardly be wor-
rying over freight. There is strong talk
Of laying the case before the railroad
