that climatic conditions were favorable.

shade more crenence was given the Eng

Primary receipts for the week showed a
failing off OF about 1900, CO bushels CON-
pared with The previous week, and about

of First Lieut.. John Leland Moore, of
Company L, Fifty-fi Iowa volin-
Eteers, whose tragic death at Manila
came as great shock to this commun-
ity, was held yesterday afternoon from
the First Presbyterian church, with
military honors. The crowd was so
large that the church was unable to
accommodate ALL and many were
compelled to stand outside during the
services. The high school cadets
formed a guard Of honor, while the
active pail bearers were ex-members of
the deceased's company. Members of
the Grand Army of the Republic acted
as honorary pail bearers. The county
and city officials and members of the
grand jury, now in session, attended in
a body, as did the members of the
Sanitary Relief Commission and the
w. r. G. The services at the church
were most impressive and Hon. John
n. Baldwin made most eloquent adj
lsdress. The cortege that followed the
remains to the last resting place in
Fairview cemetery was one of the most
imposing ever seen in this city. Lieut..
Moore was the only son of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. b. Moore, of this city.

BIGAMIsT CURTIS FREE.
Notorious Editors Sentence mt Ana
mosn Completed.


Anamosa, Sept. 16.-Editor Curtis
was told he could walk out of the
prison free man, provided he would
conduct himself properly and not sub
ject himself to a. breakage OF the rules
of the prison. He has served sufficient
time to be paroled. r. b. Curtis was
sentenced to the penitentiary for five
years on the charge of bigamy. He
came into Jones county and established
q paper at Center Junction, which he
afterward removed to Anamosa. He
courted and married Miss Letta Arnold,
OF Wyoming. Jones county: After liv-
ing with her time he sent her to her
parents at Wyoming, and, hiring a
team, left the country. An examination
OF the effects he left behind showed
that he had run other papers at various
points in Illinois and Indiana under
different names, and an investigation
revealed the fact that he had at least
two other wives. Sheriff Babcock and
Mr.. Arnold, the father of the girl he
married, did not cease their search for
Curtis until he was located in Mime
sofa, where he was arrested. On his
trial for bigamy before Judge Thomp-
son 1t was shown that he had deserted
his Illinois wife a few hours before the
birth Of her child. In passing sentence
Judge Thompson scored the prisoner in
a way that has always been remem-
bered by those who heard 1t. Miss Ar
mold had the marriage annulled at a
subsequent term of court. She and her
family regard Curtis with loathing and
We're indignant that Curtis should have
dedicated a book which he wrote in
prison to her. The Monticello Express
speaks OF Curtis as a sleak, insinuating
rascal. who deludes the confiding with
his hypocritical cant and moralzings,
asserting also that he has always
shown up in the prayer meetings,
where his uplifted eyes and solemn
drivel called attention from his per-
verified nature. Some months ago Cur
It's published his book, pretending to
relate his career. blaming his miscon-
duct to dope meaning possibly,
morphine, that he took to drive off blue
spells. The prison authorities had the
book destroyed, as they supposed, but
several copies escaped and are still ex-
tant. AS editor of the Prison Press
Curtis has been succeeded by Wesley
Elkins, the boy murderer of Clayton
county, who killed his parents.
