An Chatauqua Branches Were Active
Wednesday.
Des Moines, July 12.-Midland Chau-
tauqua, session Of 1900, opened Tues
day. Assuming that the first day is
criterion, the session will be sur
passing successful. Nevertheless, the
hope that no one in all the city will
miss the treats afforded at Chautau-
qua park during the next two weeks
springs continuous in the hearts OF
the managers. The grounds and audi
torium are reallydecoratedthis year.
In q semi-circle west, north and east
of the auditorium there are arches,
bearing trees and fountains of varl-
colored globes in which the illumina-
ton at night shines brilliantly. These
arches remind the observer of the
gala days of Semi ON Sed illumination
down town. Inside the auditorium
there is an abundance of patriotic
decoration, flags and bunting being
worked into designs of many des-
criptions and the stage being embel-
lished with bust of General Grant
and a picture of George Washington.
THE interior of the building is IN
viting. Added to the talent which, in
exceptional measure, the management
has arranged to occupy the stage, the
visitor is satisfied and pleased.

DEN1soN, July 9.-Mrs. j. B. Rom
ans, wife of the member of the demo-
cratic state central committee for the
Tenth district, died Saturday morning
from the effects of severe burns re-
ceived in a gasoline accident on Thurs
day. The accident was caused by the
careless handling of gasoline, which
caught fire, and in the excitement a
dish full of the blazing fluid was
thrown all over Mrs. Romans, and in
a moment she was mass of flames.
Her clothing was burned off her and
her entire body was scorched. At
FIRST it was thought that Mrs. Romans
would recover, but in spite of every
effort, the effects Of the shock were
too great for her system.

a London, July 1.-THE Shanghai
correspondent Of the Press gives the
text Of q long edict Of Prince Tuan,
dated June 20. The Express consid'
ers that the edict proves that Prince
Tuan's party is making no attempt
to disguise the fact that the worst
that could be anticipated has hap
pened. The edict contains the fol-
lowing paragraphs: .s..
"The anger of our people knew
no bounds. They could not be re-
strained. The task of guarding the
legations, which before was difficult
was made impossible"
Elsewhere, referring to the desire
to protect the legations still UNI
harmed, it says:
ut is impossible for us to con.
tinue this protection, let it be repre-
scented to the powers that we must be
held blameless, for the anger of our
people grows with the rising of each
sun that sees more and yet more for
eigners and soldiers come to overrun
and lay waste our country and slay
our people,"
The correspondent says the edict is
intended to pave the way for final
lifting of the veil over the recent his
tory of Picking.

DIES MONIES, July o.--The Jones
case, concerning the alleged retention
for his private use Of fees due the
state by G. T. Jones, clerk OF the SUI
preme court, caused heated contro'
versy in the executive council. An
effort on the part of State Treasurer
John Herriott to have the council take
action on the matter, and name com.
mittee to make an examination OF the
books and records of the Office of the
clerk, was defeated by the remaining
mem bers of the council. A resolution
providing for such an examination
was turned down by Governor Shaw,
Secretary of State Dobson and Auditor
Merriam, and instead, substitute
resolution was adopted, leaving the
case in the hands of the governor.

SAVED by SMALL CHILD.
Tsn-Year-Old Girl Prevents Death OF
Her Mother.

Tsn-Year-Old Girl Prevents Death OF
Her Mother.
Fort DODGE, July 10.-The presence
of mind of her little ten-year-old child
alone saved Mrs. c. Talbot OF this city
from a horrible death. Mrs. Talbot
was engaged in her household duties
and had filled a gasoline stove. She
neglected to close the can before
lighting the stove. She applied the
match and the gasoline exploded. She
was covered with the burning fluid
and afame in an instant. Losing all
presence of mind she rushed for the
door, and as she opened it was met by
her little daughter, who, realizing the
extreme danger that her mother was
in, wrapped her loose clothing about
her, smothering the flames. 1t she
had reached the open air it is improb-
able that anything could have saved
her. AS it was, Mrs. Talbot was
frightfully burned about the arms and
hands, while the little rescuer was
also slightly scorched.

IsisEVlTlES.

AtIowa City recently fireIdestroyed
the fine residence and barn of DR.. j.
C. Shrader and the residence OF John
F. Tanner. E. F. Brockway was liv-
ing in the Shrader house and his
horses and carriages occupied the
barn. which was situated about twen'
tv feet south of the extreme end OF the
house. The fire started in some man
ner in the barn and within a few mo-
ments was roaring sheet of flame,
a strong south wind driving the flames
to the south and to the Tanner resi-
dence adjoining. The residence OF
President MacLean was endangered,
but a stream of water was kept on
the building, preventing the fire from
securing foothold. A conservative
estimate places the loss at $4,000.
