KILLED BY THE CARS.
A Half Brother Of J. r Bolton the
Victim.

AvoCa, Nov. 21.-John L. Bolton, a
member of the Rock Islands main
line section gang at this place met in
slant death last evening by being run
over by hand-car upon which he had
been riding and by fast special east
bound meat train. The gang in which
Bolton had been working were COM
ing through a deep cut about three
miles west OF town when, almost be-
fore they were aware of it, the train
was upon them and all had to jump
for their lives. Bolton is said to have
been on the front end of the hand car
and in making an effort to get away
from the danger it seems he lost his
balance and fell in front of the mOv-
ing hand car and was run over by it
before the train struck him, and the
train was upon him in a moment and
literally ground him to pieces, the
whole train passing over him before
il could be stopped. Bolton was So
years of age and leaves a wife an
babe that is but q few months old. 1t
is said that he carried $1,000 life ir
suranCe in the Modern Woodmen of
America. He was married in July,
1900, to Miss Ida Anderson, and was
living in a neat little cottage on the
south side.

WOULD TAKE PICTURES.
ROgues Gallery 10 be started by Chief
of Police Moore.

Chief of Police Moore is a firm be,
lever in the naturalization of pris-
oners by photograph and measurement
and he advocated the establishment Of
a rogue's gallery in this city for the
use of the city itself and the informa-
ton of other cities.
1t is certain that within the course
Of Year a number of criminals are
hauled in in this city and are wanted
elsewhere. There is a way that these
fellows may be detained until their
photograph is taken and published. It
is done in other places and the system
is very fruitful in results.
Mr.. Moore states that the cost to the
city would not be great. The front
and profile views are taken and the
work could be done by a local photo
grapher. The photos are preserved
according to a system and in case 2
criminal is wanted after he has left
place the pictures are an evidence left
behind that he has been at stated
places and at stated times
The system is of greatest use in the
larger cities and frequent calls for
photographs are made upon Chief
Moore by these places. The idea has
been proved to be a great assistance to
Justice in pursuit of criminals. 1t Is
likely that Mr.. Moore will succeed in
having the system established here.

Hawkeye school House Damaged by
Work of HOOdIums.

The Hawkeye school district has
from time to time been having much
trouble with some person or persons
damaging the school property. The
depredations have been committed
from time to time and the board has
been at loss what to do in the mat
ter. They have suffered and have
endured the best they could but
patience has now ceased to be a
virtue and there is trouble in store
for some one.
During the recent vacation of the
school some one shot through the
windows of the building and six large
panes of glass were shattered. The
glasses are "a by 36 measurements and
are costly and the board has tired of
being at continual expense.
In former years the property has
been molested and damaged by per-
sons breaking into the school house.
Furniture has been damaged and the
walls and ceiling have been spattered
with ink. The board at present con-

AGE WINS GIRL.
Iowa Romance does Not End Like
story Book.

Des Moines, Nov. 22.-One of the
most remarkable romances in the his
tory of Des Moines has just been clos
ed by the marriage of Mrs. Ada May
Toll to @. r. Youtz. The bride was
gagged to Youtz few months ago. On
the eve of her wedding she let herself
down from a window with a rope, join
ed w. t. Toll and they were secretly
married. Next day she was seized and
held a prisoner by her parents and
they finally induced her to agree to
the setting aside of the marriage to
Toll This was effected and yesterday
Mrs. Toll became Mrs. Youtz.
The story is melo-dramic with the
''heavy" carrying Off Of the heroine.
Youtz had money to burn. He was
quiet and cold. Ada was lively and
passionate. He was well along in
years. She was Just past sweet 16."
Then, too, he was the man her parents
had picked out for her, and that was
not according to the way the matter
was usually arranged in the class Of
fiction she was accustomed to read.
But she seemed resigned to her
fate" and when the wedding day was
set for last July she went ahead with
the preparation of her trousseau with
as much grace as her mother could
ask The wedding day drew near.
Then it was that w. T. Toll, a young
hardware clerk came upon the scene.
He proved to be just the kind of a
lover Ada had been reading about. He
had no money, and the fact that Youtz
was wealthy made it seem lust that
much more romantic. Toll assured
her he loved her to distraction and
Ada was happy, for that was just what
the hero of her favorite novel had
said. AS the eve of the wedding came
on and the sun sank below the horizon
she stole out and met her youthful
lover and the elopement was agreed
upon. He routed out the clerk and
secured the license. the brides mans
being given as Ada May Hendrick. He
then repaired to the minister's home
and here he was joined by Ada at -
o'clock. She hurriedly told him how
she let herself from the upper window
and was then united in holy wedlock
She returned home the next day for
her parents blessing, but the stoCy
books were not borne out in this in
stance. She was kept in the house AMI
locked up, while her father summoned
a sheriff and had Toll arrested on a
charge of perjury. Ada stamped her
foot and shed tears and did all the
pretty things she had ever read about.
She declared her undying devotion to
her husband and smuggled impassion-
ed letters to him. 1t was a long strug.
gle and fearful one, but eventually
the parents won out. Toll was re-
leased, the wedding was annulIed and
now Mrs. Toll has been made Mrs.
Youtz. Toll is disappointed, but Youtz
is happy and Ada says she is content.

.ausptciOus End.

The revival service at the Christian
church closed Sunday night with an
audience of not less than eight han
dred persons. All the seating capacity
of the church, including both audience
rooms and the galleries, were filled.
Many persons remained standing dur
ing the entire service. There was a
very reVerent and respectful attention
en- the part of every one present, and
this characterized each service of the
entire four weeks meeting. Rev Nc
Knight has a distinctly original man
ner of presenting the truth OK the go5-
pei, and this, together with his cleGr
and chaste language, has made these
meetings especially interesting from
their beginning. Prof De Loss Smith,
the singing evangelist, who has assist
ed Rev. Mcknight from the first, is a
splendid leader of song. AS a soIoist
he was especially popular because Of
his smooth, magnetic voice and clear
enunciation. All the departments OF
the church have been made stronger
and sixty-eight persons in all have been
added to the church.

operators of the state, who were In
conference in Des Moines last week,
have decided TO employ salaried COM
missioner or attorney to represent them
in their disputes with the miners.
The duties of the official win be to go
wherever a dispute may arise and in

with the president of the union and do
everything possible to secure favor
able settlement Of the case. 1t has
been the policy in the past for the
operators to settle with the men If
possible, and If not to allow the matter
to go before the arbitration committee.
In most of the disputes the miners
have had the assistance of their state
officers, and they have acted as at
torneys for the men. The operators
wish to be on the same footing and
the result of creating this new Office
win be to provide an official who will
viii be an arbitrator and attorney at

The new official will not be placed in
the field before next year. In fact,
