Clear Lake. Sept. 2O.-Quite a sensa-
ton was created on our streets Monday
evening when painter by the name of
Nelson was publicly horsewhipped by a
Mrs. w. Howard. 1t seems that Nelson
had been making advances and using
language unbecoming gentleman, and
Mrs. Howard had put up with his
abuse until she could stand it no longer.
She met Mr.. Nelson in Bromley's shoe
store Monday evening and told him
very plainly what she thought Of him,
and then produced whip she had con-
cealed on her person and proceeded to
give him good horsewhipping. 1t
seems that this is not the only time that
this man Nelson has insulted women,
and it will probably be a good lesson to
him in the future not to make too free
with the opposite sex.

DoMEsT1clTY THE IDEA.
State Institutions at Their Best
When of Domestic Character.

Des Moines, Sept. a0.-Superintendent
F. NJ. Powell of the institution for the
feeble minded at Glenwood, aptly crys-
taliZed the statement developed by an
all afternoon debate at the conference
between the state board of control and
the superintendent of the state institu-
tons Tuesday when he said that the
purpose of the management of the In
stitutons and the purpose of inveStiga-
ton and discussion of theories of man
agement is to devise methods which
will make the institutions less of an APP
parently public nature and more of a
domestic character. Those features of
the management of the eastern institu-
tions visited by Judge Kline and SUI
perintendent Gass, which approached
the idea of domesticity, are the ones
which they endorsed in their reports tc
the board of that tour of investigation
But on the whole" asked Chairman
Larrabee of Judge Kline, did you find
the institutions visited by you and Mr.
Gass better in any particulars than the
institutions of this state?"
I'm but one or two particulars" SAID
Judge Kline. I'm some institutions the
furnishings were better than they are ir
the Iowa institutions. The interior fur
nishings surpass Iowas as rule. Man,
of the buildings, also, are better thar
those in Iowa. Aside from this the lowe
institutions are superior"

intendent Gass. ARE built as rule t,

There will be no replacement in thes
