The Hans Case.


The FIRST move in the Fred Nj
Hans case was made yesterday
when County Attorney Traver ex,
pressed his willingness to have
the case Of the state of Iowa
against Francis Daniels dis
missed. Francis Daniels, it will
be remembered, was indicted by
the grand jury IN conjunction with
Richard J Latta, for The burglary
which proved to be farce instigat-
ed By Fred NJ Hans to boost him-
self through the papers with the
compa ", Of which he was then
aud is still acting as chief detec-
tive.
Attorney Geo w Esan, who is
employed by the board of Super
visors as associate counsel in the
cases against Daniels and Hans
objected to the action of the coun-
ty attorney, in his determination
to dismiss the case OF Daniels if
it were set down for trial. Mr.
Egau asked the court to grant
him few minutes in which to
show the court why the case
ngainst Daniels should not be
dismissed aud why Daniels should
not be tried until after Hans. The
court very willingly set this a m
at 3 o'clock as the time for the
hearing aud Mr. Esan went over
the grounds of the whole case in
a very logical and careful manner
insisting that the case of Hans
would fall if the case oe Daniels
was dismissed, as Daniels is the
main witness against Hans and if
dismissed would get out of the
jurisdiction OF the court. Mr.
Egan sprung surprise upon
Brady, Daniels attorney, and the
county attorney by producing
letter from Daniels himself in
which he told the court that he
disired to appear against Hans.
The court refused to dismiss
the case this time aud on looking
up the case he found that Hans
had never been arraigned, which
was strange, to say the least. The
court then ordered that Hans te
brought into court at once. At.
torney Egan will insist as he has
insisted upon the Immediate trial
of Hans. When seen after his
argument to the court this morn
ing, Mr. Egan said, sthe only hope
of Hans friends is to prevent his
trial coming on. The facts are
unquestioned and law is clear.
Let Hans come to trial with the
,-.'a,>->,~ -s~.-- - a. '-a. &c .,,o
state aud he will be committed
without a doubt Let Daniels es-
cape and the case falls, which is
we'll known to all who are familiar
with the facts. Logan Gazette.

As when the wild wind tops the darkening
80 clouds,
And thunders crash,
In sunder rends the flood gates of the storm,
And lightennings flash
In lurid glare lends to the appalling gloom,
And in its path
Are strewn the beautiful, best things of earth
In aftermath.
The soul and spirit by swift sorrow riven
In anguish live,
All torn and broken by the tempest crash
In passing by.
Solace than balm of honey dew more sweet
These works will be:
Eat m0rn at eventide, all times, dear heart,
think of thee"

The Fourth Was All things con.
"A 7"''ess' spired to make the
Fourth a most agreeable, if not 8
glorious" day for the inmates oil
this institution; the weather, con.
trary to expectations and manifold
prophecies, was cool and pleasant
the chapel exercises we're above
the usual standard of excellence
and the men we're in the proper
mood to ENJOY things as they
came.
The entertainment in the chapel
commenced at about $50 with a
song by the choir, after which
Mrs. Josephine Bonaparte Rice OF
Minneapolis was introduced by
Warden Wolfer. Mrs. Rice has
provided entertainment here be.
fore, and is very general favorite,
so good reception for her was q
foregone conclusion. She recited
several of James Whitcomb Riley's
poems and also one or two original
sketches. The next number on
the program was a mandolin solo
by Mr.. Williams, who was accom-
panied by Miss Bartholomew OF
Minneapolis, which met with the
decided approval of the house and
was encored. )
MI. Carl Huebl, who was next
introduced, made good" at once
with his darby songs and parodies
He got his audience going before
the first verse was sung, and il
was with reluctance that he was
permitted to return to his seat
after responding to several en-
cores.
The violin solo by Miss Verna
Golden was entirely charming and
satisfying. Her selections, a
slumber song by Booth,
Weiniawski's Mazurka and
the Swanee River as an encore,
were both technical and tuneful
and her execution met with the
complete appreciation of the
