This return, which this year they say

A STRANGE AFFAIR.
ExpIosion of Dynamite Wrecks TWO
Bnildings and Kills One Man
In Urbann, Ia.

Waterloo, Ia, Nov. -. - The little
| town of Urbana, in the eastern part or
Benton county, was the scene OF an
atrocious crime early Saturday morn
ing. The office building of the Weekly
Monitor and the structure occupied Dy
jay ID. Burreli as bank and general
merchandise store were blown up with
| dynamite and Clarence Burrell, son OF
! the banker, killed. The crime was com
mitted nj 2:l0 O'Clock. At that hour
! the residents were awakened from
sound sleep by two terrific explosions
which shook the whole town. In a few
minutes the streets were filled with
scores of frightened men aud women
[, hurry ing to learn the cause of the COM
motion. They found the Monitor office
had been blown to pieces. not vestige
of the building being left on the foun-
dation. The IIurrell store had been
wrecked and was burning fiercely. a
few minutes later the body of young
Burrell was found among the debris in
the street.
The young man had been aroused by
the first explosion and with his brother
ing. just ms he mounted the steps the
second explosion occurred. blowing on;
the front of the building and killing
him instantly. The force of the shock
threw the young mans body across the
street. II was terribly crushed and
mangled. There is no clew TO the per-
petrators of the deed, but it seems evi-
dent that robbery was not the motive
that actuated them. The safe in the
Burrell store was found intact. 1t con-
tanned $4,000 in money and $4,000 in
notes and mortgages. Fire completed
the ruin wrought by the dynamite. Thr
loss TO the Burrell store is placed nj
$4,000. The printing Office loss is aboui
$4,000.
No one in the little village can inn
agine the motive for such n crime. So
far as known neither Mr.. Burrell nor
Editor Fisher had any enemies who
would resort TO such desperate tactics
for revenge.

| Concerning the policy of removals. the re-
port says:
''The policy of former administrations of
removing fourth-class postmasters for DO
! litical reasons. regardless of length OF
service, resulted In the changing of post
masters In all the important fourth-class
offices cary In those administrations. The
-FOUR years term of the great majority of
fourth-class postmasters, therefore, eX-
PRED early In this administration, which
accounts for the greatly decreased num-
Der OF appointments made during the ifs
cal year as compared with the preceding
one. Special attention to disciplinary
measures and the general Improvement OF
the service has therefore been permitted"
There were 2,s35 post Offices established
ana l,Soo discontinued. At the close OF
the year the total number OF post Of
noes In the country was an even 75oG0.
The department has discontinued a num-
Der ofprivate post Offices, which II has been

Mt OF some private institutions: not only

Among the recommendation are for au-
