speaking of Superintendent Stone of the
insane hospital and his recent troubles,
says: Now that poor Stone is, in trou-
bic all kinds of stories are in circula-
tionSresarding his Weak mindednes,s and
the advantage that his associates took
of him. 1t Isl told for fact that the
young men and women would conspire
to defraud him of his valuables. The
favorite method would be forone young
woman to appear to be fascinated With
Stone. Then young man would quietly
inform him that Miss - was greatly
interested in him and would be delight
ed to accept his attentions. The simple
minded fellow would at once shine UP to
neSyoung lady who would as IA pidly as
possible lead him up to a proposal and
an acceptance. Then would follow a
valuable ring and often other nice pres
seHts. OF course these were what the
girl Was after. Soon there would be
trouble and the engagement would be
broken of, but the presents4were never
returned. Quite a number Of hospital
girls are wearing Stones engagement
rings, and several are wearing his
watches. Perhaps. however, the most
cruel imposition on Stone was the Civ
ing of worthless notes for money loaned.
He Was a careful man and had no ex-
travagant habits and saved UP consid-
cradle of his wages. He would loan out
his money in sums OF SlO0 and 5000. Sew
eral of these notes, he turned over to the
board Of control to reimburse the state
for any loss that he may have sustained.
The notes We're worthless and his money
gone"

with hogs in the early morning and had
reached Grlnnell en- route to Chicago
The train having stopped, he went for.

tunateiy in trying to mount the moving
train fell under it and was cut to pieces
and died INK short time after. DR.. III.
%. Conoway fastened from here to
Grinnell on the first train, but was too
late to render any assistance more
than he had already received. AS soon
as word was received OF the accident a
telegram was sent to Mrs. Busby. The
shock nearly killed her. The memory
OF the death of her two sons, who We're
killed by lightning a short time before,
was still fresh in her mind and when
this news was broken to her it seemed
almost more than she could bear.
The 7:17 train from the north.
brought the remains home. Friends
had gathered from the home vicinity
and the depot platform was crowded
with sylnpathizers, who We're willing to
do what they could to render comfort
to the stricken wife and children.
