FOR HAWKEYE FOLKS
STATE ITEMS WHICH WILL BE OF
GENERAL INTEREST.

Des Motaes. Ia, May 11.-Governor
Shaw is in receipt OF cablegram from
Colonel John c. Loper. commanding the
Fifty-first Iowa volunteers at Manila
which says: THE regiment has been
on the north line for three weeks in the
trenches, fighting and doing brilliant
work. Five engagements have been
fought between Quinga and Calumpit
since May 4. The first and second bat
talions under my command led the ad-
vance of Hale's brigade from Alpalit to
st. Tomas. We had hot fighting through
many miles of muddy swamps. wad.ng
sometimes to our waists in mud. We
also forded three rivers within five
hours. On May s. our regiment assisted
in taking San Fernando Lier, the in
surgent capital. Our regiment had
ond battalions were the first soldiers to
enter the insurgent camp.
THE list of casualties to date is as
follows. all of whom are wounded:
Major w. ]. Duggan; company B. John

Human Lives Marked Down To $40.
A Connecticut court has awarded $40
damages for the death of a railway
workman who was killed by the
negligence of the railways agents.
The award is at once an absurdity
and an outrage. 1t costs more than $40
to bury man. The very clothes that
this workman wore when mangled by
an engine were worth more than that
Putting aside all consideration of
natural affection, any man who works
for wages is worth more than $40 in
mere money to those dependent upon
him.
But the corporations own Connecti-
cut, as they are trying to own New
York. In that State as in this they
have secured laws limiting their l;abi-
lity for killing anybody to $1,000. But
in this State their influence has never
been sufficient to induce court to cut
that liability down to $40. Every
honest mind must resent such a travesty
of justice.-N. Y. World.

CASE OF PROF. MORGAN.


he Favors the "Higher Criticism" and His
! Classes Give Trouble.
Des Moines. Ia. May 12.-Chancellor
w. B. Craig. of Drake university, has
issued statement denying the story
printed in Chicago Wednesday morning
relative to the alleged heresy trial Of
Professor Oscar T. Morgan of that in
stitution. Professor Morgan is friend
OF the higher criticism of the Bible.
His views led to split in his classes.
The trustees of the college transferred
him from the chair of Biblical literature
to that of Hebrew and Greek
That was two weeks ago. 1t was satis-
factory to him. There was never q sug-
gestion Of heresy trial. A circular
was anonymously circulated Tuesday
morning before daylight attacking those
students who had objected to Morgan's
view of the inspiration of the Scriptures.
1t was college prank and the faculty
intended to take no notice Of it.

Fortunately and, it may be said, un-
expectedly the ordination of Rev. DR..
Briggs was accomplished without pro-
test or sensation of any kind. 1t is,
however, rather unflattering to modern
Christianity that the police authorities
of New York city deemed it advisable
to have fifty officers present at the
procathedral in anticipation of trouble.
Nor was the precaution superfluous.
When Turkish soldiers-infidels-
kept busy in Jerusalem preventing
members of rival Christian sects from
breaking one another's heads, right at
the cradle of Christianity, it is not
surprising that the New York chief of
police considered that there were good
prospects for row should the friends
and opponents of DR.. Briggs come into
collision at his ordination. The cir
cumstance constitutes no reflection up
on the Christian religion. 1t merely
illustrates the undeniable fact that
some professors of that religion are 9
long way from exemplifying its teach
ings.-Chicago Chronicle.

which the farmer uses which is not now

robbers have been licensed to bleed the

the more their revenue, the more money

OPPOSED TO AN ALLIANCE.


Irishmen Living in Iowa Meet to Consider
British Politics.
Marshalltown. Ia. May IA state
conference of Irish Americans of Iowa
was held in this city to consider the
best means for rendering assistance to
their brothers in ireland in obtaining
home rule. Stirring addresses were
made and strong resolutions passed.
one of which was: "As American citi-
zens we protest against any alliance by
this republic with England or any 9TH
er country, believing the country's
watchword should be friendly relations
with all, entagling alliances with none"
A state convention of Irish-Ameri-
cans was favored and committee ap-
pointed to cooperate with the execu-
tive committee of the Iowa National
Irish League in calling a convention for
an early day when state wide move
ment for rendering financial and moral
aid to Ireland will be launched

In choosing speaker, like choosing
a horse, attention should be paid to the
eyesight. There were times when
Speaker Reed was totally unable to see
democrat. 1t was serious trouble
with some statesmen. Speaker Sherman
of the Illinois house was troubled in
the same way. 1t is queer, because
democrats as rule are at least physic-
ally as large as republicans.-Peoria

If any considerable body of people in

In the meantime the emperor of Ger

of course, that the new fort is "a guar

ANOTHER CHANCE.
Otis to Be Allowed to Show What IL
Can Do With q Larger Army.

Otis to BE Allowed to Show What lIo
Can Do With q Larger Army.
CHICAGO. Sept IA special to The
Record from Washington says: The
friends Of General Otis are becoming
hopeful that they will succeed in hav-
ing him retained in his present COM
mand. Last week they were deeply
discouraged and one high official of the
war department openly admitted that
he believed popular clamor" would re-
suit in his friends recall and the assign
ment of General Miles or General Mer-
ritt to Manila.
The prediction is now being conf
IDENTIFY made by General Otis admirers
that he will be permitted to demon
strate what he can do with large
army before being censured for his fail
ure to make more progress during the
last campaign.
1t is impossible owing to the conflict
ing interests at work to state positively
how the contest for supremacy will
terminate. General Miles friends are
as confident as are those of General
Otis, but the drift of feeling now seems
to have turned in favor of the latter.
Plans have been adopted at tht depart
ment, however. under which General
Lawton and General Macarthur are
each to bo given responsible command
of several divisions, and they will be-
gin operations just as soon as the rainy
season is considered at an end. The
cavalry will be under command of
General Lawton, whilo General Mac
Arthur's command will be composed
principally of infantry. One command
will operate to the north, while the
other will probably cover the south.

A Nice. OHI,-f,,r ,s,n,

While good many Of the funny sto-
ries Of 'She asked me to bold the ba.
by" have been written and tic subject
consequently is somewhat fraycd, still
the scene that occurred in Madison
square one night was funny. a jovial
looking old gentleman was sitting on
bench beside portly, well dressed
woman who had baby in her arms.
The two got in conversation by the old
gentleman remarLing "How well the
baby behaves" for the little thing lay
and slept peacefully wrapped il nu-
merous veilings.
Presently the woman said she was
going over to Fourth avenue to buy a
bottle Of milk and requested the old
man to hold the baby. "Why, certain
ly," said he. "I'ye been n father and
grandfather to so many that I know
how to handle them" The woman
went away and didn't come back. The
old gentleman became nervous, but as
the baby still slept on peacefully he
waited until long past his own bed
time for the mother to return.
1t was nearly midnight when he
walked into the police station and
handed over the bundle. Then he bare
ly escaped arrest for trying to hoax
the sergeant when the wrappings were
thrown aside and there was disclosed
a papier mache doll, one Of those
jointed things from Paris. which ad-
mirably reproduce an appearance Of
life.-New York News.
