NEW YORK, JUNE 12.-Terry NJ Gov
ern fully lived up to his title of feather
weaight champion at the Seaside athlet-
ic club tonight by knocking out Tommy
White in three rounds. The little cham
pion never showed better form and gave
his opponent no rest from the sound of
the gong of the opening round until the
referee had counted off the fatal ten
seconds. He took the stiff jab which
White handed out with a smile, and fore
ed Tommy about the ring with terrible
drives to the body and head. After the
first round Whites face took on fright
ened look and he clinched repeatedly to
save himself from punishment, but Terry
tore away from his grasp as though
White was a baby. The crowd looked
for a quick ending, but there were few
present who expected the termination to
come so soon. The third round was a
succession Of knock downs for White. No
sooner would he regain his feet than he
would go down again and after going
down twice for the seventh time he was
so near gone that it was impossible
for him to get up again although he made
a game effort.

ritory of Hawaii, and of the Philip

trade of the Pacific, and the time is
not distant when the people will
wonder that anybody should ever have

But, fellow citizens our

when you shall have concluded your

SAYS IT'S A COMBINE.
Iowa Farmers Complain OF an Alleged
Threshermen,s Trust.

Fort Dodge, May 9.-The farmers
thruout this part of the state are very
much agitated over the recent organ
ization of the threshers who have
formed themselves into societies for the
purpose of having uniform rate for
their work, and the further protection
of their interests. Persons owning
threshing machines have held meet
ings in various counties in the north
western part of the state and have
organized threshers' associations. The
last one was held a few days ago in
Boone county, where uniform sched-
ule was adopted and terms for all
kinds of work performed by them. The
farmers are now agitating the ques-
ton of buying machines and doing
their own work. A meeting of prom
inent farmers was held in the south
east part of Webster county Saturday
for the purpose of DISCUSSING the best
method of fighting what they consider
q new trust. The general sentiment
among the farmers is that the rates
proposed by the threshers are too high
and that rates more reasonable should
be established. They are willing to
pay 11s cents a bushel for threshing
oats and cents for wheat, where the
work is done in field and stack. If
the threshers will not accept these
terms the farmers will club together
and buy their own machines. There
is an impression among farmers that
once the association becomes perma-
nently organized all over the state, the
prices would then be advanced and the
manufacturers of threshing machines
would protect them by refusing to
sell machines to any one not member
of the association.

riage to Mary Jane Swickard, of JEFF
ferson county, Ohio. To this union
four children were born, two of whom
died in infancy. Two sons, WILDER F.,
of Harrison, Neb., and James H., of
this city, together with the wife, are
left to survive the demise of kind
and loving husband and father.
During long and active business
career, covering a period Of about for
ty years, Mr.. Shepherd gained an en-
viable reputation for straightforward
ness and honesty in his dealings and
was well known all over southeastern
Iowa.

False Pretense.

From Tuesdays Daily.
George L. Brooks, of this city, was
ARRESTED last evening charged with OBJ
tanning money by false pretense. In
police court this morning he appeared
with his attorneys, Scott d Ayres, and
asked for 4 continuance until next Fri
day, which was granted. Brooks was
ia juror in district court this term and
received a warrant from the clerk for
his services. He, it is said, was warn
ed that whatever taxes stood against
him would be deducted from the
amount of the warrant, that being a
custom which obtains in the treasur-
|er's office and is used to catch many a
dollar due the county which would

and that he took the warrant to j. A.
Phillips store, where the same was

county treasurer he promptly deduct
ed the amount of taxes that stood I'M

ance. This led to an investigation on
the part of Mr.. Phillips, and the truth
was learned. He promptly applied for
warrant for the arrest of Brooks,
who was taken into custody last even
ing and released this morning on his
own recognizance pending trial next
Friday.
Last evening a warrant was issued
by Squire Campbell for the arrest of

OF abandoning the prosecution of the
case Saturday.
Judge Fee refused to grant Jennie
Norton new trial in her damage case
