Another illustration of the fact that
advertising pays has just come to hight
here. says a Fort Dodge dispatch, in
the romantic marriage of Martin
Kueck. a young locksmith. Whether
the old adage that love laughs at lock
smiths had any significance in this
case is not known, but the fact re-
mains that Kueck saw the advertise
ment Of young lady named Tena
Krienke, of South Bend, Ind, in a
Denver matrimoial paper and straight
way answered. This was in March,
and the affair rapidly drifted towards
matrimony. The young lady was pru-
dent, however, and refused to marry
the ardent young locksmith unless he
could furnish good recommendations.
Kueck then went to one of the promi =
nent ministers of the city, told his
story and secured glowing recon-
mend that completely won the lady's
heart. She yielded, and Sunday he LETT
fer South Bend and in the middle Of
the week returned with his blushing
bride. The groom is q and the brld.
is several years older.

NO POWER TO ACT,
Filipino Commissioners Must Refer Every.
thing to Aguinaldo.

thing to AguinaldO.
MANILA, May 22-The Filipino
commissioners. who arrived here Oh
Saturday to negotiate with the United
States commissioners, held a confer
ence this morning with Messrs. Schur-
man, Worcester and DENLY. They say
they are without power to bind the
so-called Filipino government in any
particular and can only refer any re-
suits of the present negotiations to
Aguinaldo.
$40 p. m.-The Filipino commits
sioners, General Gregorie del Pillar,
Lieutenant Colonel Alberto Barretto,
MAJOR Zealita and Senior Gracio Coma
ga, with their families, spent today in
visiting friends in Manila and confer
red with Senior Floertino Torres, Fable
Ocampo and Teodore Yanco, the men,
bers of the local Filipino association,
which will participate in the meetings
with the Americans. Senior Torres was
a member of Aguinaldo's commission
before the war. He proposes indie
pendence and favors autonomy, and
he has been most influential in per-
suading the followers of Aguinaldo to
make the present advances.
Autonomy is the burden of the talk
of the Filipinos and if it is thought
that what they wish for would be little
different from an American protector
ate, which they talked of before the
war. Senior Palermo, who has sue
ceeded the irreconcilable Mabini as
president of the Filipino so-called cab
met, is a student and writer of abil-
ity. He once drew up a plan OF au.
tonomy under Spain, which the Span
ish government promised to adopt,
there being troublesome rebellion on
foot. The American commissioners
in studying the question Of Philippine
government have found several good
points in this scheme. Palermo is now
the strong man in Aguinaldo's party.
All the moneyed leaders of the in
surrection see that it is hopeless and
are anxious for peace. Those who
want money think they may profit by
harrassing the Americans a while
longer. On the suggestion of Mr..
commission, the local Filipino peace
party has started a newspaper.
Major Hobbies expedition to open
communication with General Lawton
has occupied Arayat, about seven
miles beyond Canada, on the Rio
Grande, following the course of the
stream. No insurgents were found
there and the Pampangas along the
river are friendly. Last Friday Ma
jor Kobbe took Santana, about six
miles northeast of San Fernando, on
the road to San Isidro. A priest met
the expedition with white flag
Delegations from San Nicolas and
Santiago, small villages just south of
Arayat, came to him with the news
that 200 insurgents who had been
holding both places had withdrawn.
They invited the Americans to enter
and as the members of the expedition
marched the church bells were rung
and the timid who had fed fiocked
back.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-In the
United States supreme court an opin-
ion was rendered today in the CAGE OF

tention of the city and adverse to the

MANILA, May 22.-The Nebraska
regiment marched from San Fernando
to Calumpit today for thirty days
rest. The regiment numbers about 300
weather-beaten veterans. Two of the
companies are mere squads and their
battered canteens and shiny clothes
show unmistable marks of rough cam
paigning. But the soldiers are happy.
Several of them dropped by the way
from the heat, but when they boarded
the special train at Calumpit, bound
for Manila, they yelled like school
boys and the other troops went to
their stations and cheered heartily.

Murder story Revived.

Harlan dispatch: All day Saturday
there was much excitement in the city
over the renewed search for the body
of Frank Richardson, unique caar
acter, who lived in g, miserly way,
while at the same time lending money
to the farmers of Shelby county, dis
appeared mysteriously three years ago
last August He is known to have
had many notes and considerable
money on his person at the time Of
his disappearance. 1t is believed by
many that the man was murdered and
his body hidden somewhere near the
city.
On Saturday a woman coming from
Omaha and calling herself Young made
her appearance. She claims to be \
spiritualist, and insists that she knows
exactly where the body of Richardson
lies. Southeast. of the city about nalf
a mile is an old mill turned by the
Nishnabotna river. Two and one half
rods above the mill race is the spot
so the Young woman says, where the
body lies, after having been thrown
there in a sack loaded with stones.
She induced number of paid men to
make temporary dam above the spot
on Saturday. A little digging was lone
and the work will be continued this
week.
The woman declares that the spirit
of Richardson appeared to her three
times lately. She says he was murder
ed by three men, an American, Dane
and a German, just as darkness came
on one August night, and that he was
buried until the Sth Of May last, when
the body was exhumed and thrown into
the river. She actually points out a
place half mile from the mill where
a hole had been dug, which now con-
tains nothing
