CURED at Poplar, about eight miles
southwest of here, Sunday night. Some
OF the inhabitants We're blowing out the
old year with two anvils between which
was placed the hub of a wheel, for the
purpose, it is said, of making the noise
Of the explosion louder. When the pow
der was touched off there was deafen-
ing report. above which was heard a
loud cry~of agony. When the noise was
sstilled Mr.. z. S. Peterson, postmaster,
was lying on the street, his head being
almost entirely severed from the body.
It was found that the hub was blown
from between the anvils and that u
struck the unfortunate man squarely in
the neck. DR.. A. l.. Brooks was imme-
diately summoned, but he found the
man dead when he arrived at the scene
OF the accident. Mr.. Peterson leaves a
wife and family to mourn his untimfly
death. He was about 30 years of>age.

ROBSON WAS MURDERED.
ON Sioux city stockman HIS
Proved FATAL Hunting the Crim-

Sioux City, JAN John Robson, the
Sioux City contractor who was brutal-
ly attacked by an unknown person and
robbed in his office at q late hour Fri
day night, died at the Samaritan hos
pital m this city al 8 o'clock Sunday
night. The poor fellow lay in pool.
OF his own blood in the Office with the
Temperature down to zero the entire
night his skull fractured, his head cut,
and unable to move. The door was
open and exposure did as i.alch as any
thing else toward ending his life. So

Robson, and he said he could not tell
who he was. He was simply able TO.
state that he was a thick-ser man and
wore dark clothes. He hit Mr.. Robson
over the head almost as soon as the
latter had put his foot inside the office
door. A more cold blooded murder has
not taken place in Sioux City in years.
The dead man was very prominent in
business and Masonic circles. He has
lived here for "a great many years, Was
representative of Sooysmith & Co, the
New York contractors, and has held
public office. The community at large
feels the disgrace Of the sad affair. az
no effort win be spared to catch the
guilty man. Rather a sensation was
produced by the statement, which was
true one. that at the time of the muir
der over half the police force was pres
cnt at the White-Green boxing match
at the opera house. The chief explains
this by saying that these We're all night
men but one, and he had a day man
working in his pace. But 1t was the
subject of at least one sermon Sunday
night. A blooc,. hound traced the foot
steps of the murderer to the street car
tracks from the office of the dead man.
1t is surmised that the fellow boarded
some street car, and that perhaps he
went across the river to Covington. At
any rate, he has not been caught, al
though there is plenty of money which
would be willingly paid for his convic-
ton.
The Sioux City police have in their
possession suit of bloody clothes
which were found under railway
bridge, and they may prove a valuable
clue toward the capture of the MUIR
derer of John Robson. They We're found
hid away in a hole by some children
The collar was spattered with blood
and in the place We're found numerous
rags probably used by the man to wipe
his filthy hands. 1t is hoped they may
lead to capture. So far no arrests
have been made.

MORE JUDGES NEEDED.

vfccd by the LcgIsIature.
Sioux City, Jan. 2.-1t is expected
THAT at the coming session of the legis-
lature one question will be raised whici.
will be Of much interest in more ways
than one To northwestern Iowa. 1t is
the proposition of neighboring counties
10 secure a division of the Fourth judi
cial district. At the present time this
district is made up of nine counties
Woodbury., plymouth Monona, Harri-
and Lyon. There are four judges, two
of whom have to hold court in Wood
bury nearly all of the time. II has been
50 arranged now that two Of the judges
do the work in Woodbury. and Monona
counties. and the other two judges car
Try on the duties of the court in the
lsother seven counties Of the district
| In the first place the legal business is
assuming such proportions in each of
the counties named that four men can
not properly attend to it. I is further
urged that Sioux City demands too
much in wanting. the services of TWO of
the judges, only letting one off part Of
the time To hold a short term in Mo-
mona county. So several of the mem
bers OF the Sioux City bar and in fact
1.-The legislative committee of the Sioux
City Bar Association, are preparing to
present the facts in the case TO the
/ Twenty-ei general assembly.
1t has been suggested by some that
Woodbury. be cut off With district all
of its own. This would be satisfactory
to most of he members of the bar, but
the political. situation must not be over.

AUDITOR MERRIAM I'LL.
Stricken with Typhoid Fever mt San
Francisco--HisC Condition serious.

Des Moines, Jan. Frank r. Mer-
Ram, auditor OF state, is dangerously
Ill at Mount Zion hospital in San Fran
CISCO Mr.. Merriam left about ten days
ago for the coast on bushes in connec-
ton with the gas promotion company in
which he is stockholder. For several
days before his departure he had been
feeling bad, but he did not think i any
thing serious. Before he reached San
Francisco. however, his condition took
o turn for the worse, and he steadily
weakened. He was sent to Mount
Zion hospital in san Francisco, and
symptoms of typhoid soon began to de-
svelop. 1t is now stated that he has a
we'll developed case of this disease.
From the beginning of his illness Mr..
Merriam has been very anxious that as
little publicity be attracted as possible
He has telegraphed that it would not be
necessary for Mrs. Merriam to join him.
and has tried in every way to allay the
fears OF family and friends. 1t was
learned yesterday, however, that he has
had telegram sent to his old home in
Hopkinton, Delaware county, asking
that his family physician come ON the
first train. From this it is assumed that
his condition is more serious than he
has been willing to admit to his friends
and official associates here, and that he
realizes the danger.
Arrangements have been made to es-
tablish direct and quick communication
by wire, so that there will be no delay
in securing all information as to MIR.
Merriam's condition. He has been seri-
ously Ill for three or four days, but the
fact has not been made public because
of his expressed wish. kilograms have
been received for the last three days
every few hours. His friends are great
ly concerned about his condition.
