DISAPPOINTED LYNCHERs.
Break in Jail Only to Find Prisoner
Removed.

Whitehall, ILL.,. Dec. pa band of
SO men forced an entrance into the
Green county Jail at Carrollton early
this morning and made a thorough
search for Albert H. Henkle, who is
under arrest charged with assault and
robbery of Miss Grace GILES, in
Whitehall on Monday evening last.
Henkle had been secretly removed
to the Jail at Alton, and this action
on the part of the sheriff. it is be-
lieved, is all that prevented lynch
ing. When convinced that Henkle
was not in the Jail the men returned
to Whitehall.
Henkle was indicted for the mur-
der of A. J. Allen, pumper at the Bur
lington reservoir near this city, Sep.
tember 80. 1899. After being twice
continued the case was dismissed at
the last term of the circuit court by
the states attorney and he returned
to Whitehall. He is about % years
old.

MEMORIAL COMMITTEE.
Arrangements For the Daily Memorial
Going Forward.

Butte, Dec. 2S.-The executive COM
mittee of the Marcus Daily Memorial
association met tonight and discussed
ways and mans of securing the nee
essary memorial funds. There was a
full attendance of the committee and
matters were thoroughly discussed.
w. H. Eddy was elected president
of the committee, w. o. Spear, first
vice-president; c. P. Connolly, sec
retary. and T. NJ. Hodges, treasurer.
All by acclamation.
Mr.. II. l.. Frank favored the plan
of voluntary contributions. Certifi-
Gates of membership to the associa-
tion and the system of checks and re-
ceipts. Judge Spear urged that the
citizens of the state be notified at
once through the press that no man
will be authorized to collect funds
who does not bear the proper creden-
tials from the committee. This he
urged is important at this time, for it
is probable that some unauthorized
person may go out and collect money
on account of the memorial. There
will be another meeting tomorrow
night. when the plans will take on
definite form, and the address to the
people adopted.

Brother Of Booz Enters General
Denial.
BROTHER NOT ADUNCE
Cadet Booz Was Very Nervous After
Having Been Hazed Needed
Stimulants.

West Point, Dec. 27.-There was an
unusually large attendance of specta-
tors at the military court of inquiry
today. Henry G.. BOoz, a civil en-
of East Cleveland, who was heralded
as congressman, but told the press
representatives that he was never
elected to congress, were the chief
witnesses. The formers testimony
was principally a repetition of the
statements made about his brother,
former Cadet Oscar l.. Booz, of Bris-
tol, Pa, who died recently. Several
Of the cadet witnesses during the pro
gress of the investigation had ac-
cused Booz of having shown coward
ice with his fight with Cadet Keller
in August. 1898, and they also ac.
cused him of untruthfulness.
Lieutenant Coe, instructor of math
ematics, in his testimony last week
stated that Booz was not possessed
of sufficient mental capacity to pass
the necessary examination at this
academy His brother stated today
that this was not SO, as the manner
in which the former cadet had passed
his examinations at the preparatory
school at Bustleton, Pa, was suffi
cient to prove that Oscar was pos
sess of sufficient intellect. He sai(
Oscar was not untruthful and he was
anything but coward.
Mr.. Phillips principal reason" to-
appearing before the court was to
emy in 1898 for the purpose of "sav
ing his son from being hazed." One
of the witnesses at this mornings
session informed the court that he
had seen Cadet Breth so far exhaust
ed from severe exercising that stim
ulants had to be given to him in his
tent in 1897.
In the afternoon two other cadet:
of Breths class said they had seer
him in nervous condition and hi.
body arms and legs twitching aftel
he had been hazed, but one of then
said he believed Breth was pretend
ing prostration.
1t was learned after court adjourn
ed that Horace Booz had not volun
teered his testimony. He was sum
moned by the court and arrived here
last Saturday after the court had ad
journed until after Christmas. Gen
eral Brooke, General Bates and Gen
eral Clous offered to take his testi
mony on Saturday, but he objected
saying that he wished as much pub
licity given to his testimony in hi
brothers behalf as had been given t.
the testimony against him on the
grounds of untruthfulness and COW
ardice.

SILVER BOW CAUCUS.
Corbett Thinks It Joke Others
Think Different.

Butte Dec. 2S.-The caucus which
was held Wednesday in the rooms
of the Canadian Institute, of the Sill
YER Bow members of the legislature,
created frrore in town and Magin-
mis- was the recipient of many con-
gratulations. Some who are opposed
to him, however, claim that the VIC
tory was not so complete as has been
reported. The claim is made that
eight only of the Legislators attend
ed the caucus. The eight were AK
tell. Lanning, Pelletier, Meunier
Maginnis. Sullivan, Dee and Quinn.
The four who remained away from
the caucus were COrbett, kilgalon,
Gilchrist and Ferry. OF the eight
who attended, however, it is claimed
that only six voted for Maginnis, that
Dee and Quinn refused to vote at
all at the caucus. Frank Corbett
when spoken to on the subject of the
caucus was inclined to look at the
matter in jocular light. He had
heard of the caucus, but did not at
tend because he regarded it as n
hurry up" affair. He did not re
gard six as majority Of twelve. The
Maginnis people claim that while tue
four who stayed away from the eau
Gus are not bound by the action u
the caucus, the eight who attended
are. whether they voted at the saL.
Gus or not. In this way they claim
that Dee and Quinn are mcrAN'
bound to support Maginni f.:

Shocking Catastrophe at "What Cheer

Particulars.
BUT FEW ESCAPE

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-A special to the
Record from DesMoines, Iowa, says:
At 2 o'clock this morning commun-
ication was secured with the mayors
Office in Oskaloosa over the telephone
and it was stated there that informa-
ton had been received from Ottum-
wa confirming the rumor that 49
children had been drowned at What
the children had been skating on
pond near the fair grounds. There
were only few escapes. The tragedy
occurred about 8 o'clock last even
ing. Beyond this no particulars
were known in Oskaloosa What
Cheer can not now be reached by
wire.
Through the office of a telephone
company at Indianola it was learned
from the Oskaloosa office that the
Ottumwa office had learned that the
rumor Of the drowning of 40 child
rem was true. No particulars could
| be had.
A special to the Times Herald from
Burlington says:
| A telephone message from Wash
ington, Iowa, last night announced
t.la, 81 children were skating on the
river near Foster Monroe county,
when the ice broke through and 40
of them were drowned. The mes
sage announced that two of the
youngsters, badly bruised and utter
ly exhausted, managed to reach the
land and gave the alarm. Telephone
and telegraph messages to every
point near Foster have failed to bring
confirmation or denial of the story,
and there is no means of tracing the
origin of the first message. Foster is
a small town near What Cheer, and is
located on the Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway. Every available point hav-
ing connection with Foster, either by
wire or railroad, was aroused, but
could get no information. The tele-
phone exchange at What Cheer clos
ed at midnight without either con-
firming or denying the rumor.

St. Paul, Mimi, Dec 27.-EventS of

we would advocate strike should
our demands not be granted. At

The First PHOTOGRAPH.

The first Photographic portrait
from life ever made was of Miss Dor
othy G. Draper of Hastings, N. Y,
who posed for the picture in 1S39
Her brother, DR.. John w. Draper,
who had been gradually interested in
the experiments of Daguerre and
Niepce, took the likeness, which has
since became famous. 1t is in the
collection of Sir John Herschel It
is a long time-half a century now
since Miss Draper in the quaint bon
net ana gown of the period, sat for
her picture, which is still in an admir-
able state of preservation. AS faith
full and beautiful likeness it has never
been surpassed by modern photo
graphy.
1t is long step from daguerreotype
of fifty years ago to the wonderful
photographs of 1900. From the time
of the discoveries of Wedgewood, in
1902, to the successful operation of
the daguerreotype process by Da-
guerre in 1929, the only pictures taken
were of still life. Even when the
daguerreotype was in it's perfection
long exposure was required, varying
from three to thirty minutes. With
strong sunlight five minutes was con-
sidered by many photographers the
requisite length of time to take a por
| trait
The method of obtaining daguerreo-
types were complicated. First, a
brightly polished silver plate was
cleaned with pumice, olive oil and nj
trio acid, and afterward brilliantly
polished with a soft buff. The plate
was men placed. face downward, rest
ing on supports overa saucer on which
had been scattered fragments of
iodine. covered with gauze. The va
por from the iodine formed upon the
plate surface of silver iodine, which
is the sensitive compound. The stage
of maximum sensitiveness was reach
ed when it was of golden orange
color. In this stage the plate was
inserted in the dark slide of the cam
era, ready for exposure. The pictures
were beautiful. but copies could not
be made. Not until DIR. Draper's sue
cessful venture was the idea of using
the dageurreotype as the means of
perpetuating the likeness of individ-
uals considered feasible. He opened
new and fascinating realm to the
photographer.
