FOSTER DIES OF WOUNDS.
Matte NJ lash, OF Des Moines. Arrested
ON charge of Murder.


Des Moines, Sept 14.-William Fos-
ter, the young colored lawyer who was
snot and dangerously wounded by Mise
Matte Mash, also colored, Sunday az
ternoon, died yesterday at o'clock p.
M, at Mercy hospital, from the effects
of the wound. Az soon as the police de-
partment learned Of the death OF Foe
ter Deputy Marshal p. H. Burns swore
out an information for the arrest OF
Miss Mash on the charge of murder.
A warrant was issued and placed In
the hande OF Chief Mathis who, ac-3
companied by Sergeant Morris, went
TO the residence OF the girls parents in
South Des Moines. She was not at
home. but upon going to the Boarding
and lodging house at the corner OF Sec
sond and Grand avenue, conducted by
her father, the latter, after some hest
fancy, told the officers his daughter was
up stairs and that he would lead the
chief to the room where che was II he
would consent to let her remain in the
house under surveillance Of officers I'M
til Judge Silvara could be found. Mr..
Mash seemed to think 1t wac within the
scope of the authority OF the judge to
fix bond for the appearance OF the
young woman.
Mr. Mash ir man Of considerable
property and expressed the utmost will
lingness to place all he had at his
daughters disposal in the matter Of get
ting bond. Miss Mash. when confronted
by the officers, became hysterica, and
tainted Chief Mathis decided not to
remove her from the house until Judge
Silvara could be found, and left her in
the room with two officers standing as
sentinels at the doors.
After the arrest 1t war learned that
preceding his death Foster wrote out a
statement to which ne swore in which
he fully exonerated Miss Mash from all
blame for the shooting and ret out that
he himself was responsible for moral
acts that justified the young woman in
seeking the statement. which was in the
form Of an affidavit, by requesting that
she be held blamelers for the shooting
However, 1t was stated last evening that
Foster had two sisters. whose residence
was not Indicated, who had declared
| they would prosecute Miss Mash in tht
event OF the death Of their brother.

Grinnell, Sept. 14.-Mr. w. s. Ham
mond, of the electric light and heating
plant, recently announced to the pat
rons OF the heating plant that the price
for heating the various offices and store
rooms would be Increased 20 per cent for
the coming season. The announcement
created considerable stir among con-
and two petitions, or one petit
ton and an agreement, have been cir
culated The signers agreed not to pay
the advance asked, and petition was
circulated asking the city council to-
regulate the price OF heating. and OF
electric lighting. Mr.. Hammond
claims for his part that there has been
little money in lighting and heating un-i
der the most favorable conditions and
that now when the cost of fuel has been
advanced more than 80 per cent above
that of last year it 10 absolutely impera-
tive that the cost to the consumer be
Increased at least 20 per cent. The cost
OF water. bought OF the city. lighting
and heating the city building and the
amount OF tax paid. added to the in
creased cost OF fuel, leaves him no al
tentative. Those who are most active
in opposing the added cost Of heating
say that Mr.. Hammond ought to have
called meeting of those usin3 the heat
and consulted them before arbitrarily
putting up the price. and seem to think
there Is profit enough at the old rates.

There is an extraordinary deposit OF
driftwood on the coast of Alaska some
! 200 or 800 miles northwest of Seat
tie. \ constant deposit of logs and
driItwoOd has been going on for hun
dreds Of years, and it is due to the
phenomena of the tides, the Pacific
gulf stream, the ocean currents and
the peculiar formations of the shore
lines at that point. According to the
Chicago Times-Herald, logs and tim
beers are readily identified there as
having come from Japan, China, In
dia and other localities of Asia, as well
as from California, Washington and
other parts of the American continent
There are fine logs of camphor-tree
the mahogany, the redwood and the
pine. Some of these from the state OF
Washington bear the names of the
men who felled the trees and the saw
mills for which they were destined
Some logs eight feet in diameter are
often seen there, and some entire trees
100 feet long, evidently uplifted by the
roots during some terrible tempest
The newer logs are without bark, and
they are as hard as stone, due to theiI
long immersion in salt water.
