RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LOOP.
Captain Declares He or-
dered the Famous Turn.

WASHINGTON, Oct 14-Captain Francis a.
Cook the first witness called before the
Schley court of inquiry to-day. He was called
by the Navy Department but he also is on
Admiral Schley's list of witnesses he was
considered, like Lieutenant Commander Hodg-
sen and Lieutenant Doyle, witness for
both sides of the controversy. During the war
with Spain Captain Cook was commander of the
flagship Brooklyn and also Admiral Schley
chief of staff, thus occupying the same rela-
tive position to Admiral Schley that Captain
Chadwick occupied to Admiral Sampson. His
appearance on the stand therefore created con-
siderable interest and his testimony was listen
ed TO attentively. Other witnesses summon
ed by the department for the day were Lieu
tenant-COmmander William F. Fullam, who
was on the New Orleans during the Santiago
campaign, and Lieutenant Joseph Beale VINO
was on the scout ship Harvard and who vol
unteered TO go ashore and ascertain whether
the Spanish fleet under Cervera in the
harbor of Santiago.
The first Of the witnesses recalled for the
mander Staunton, formerly of the New York
the first news he received from Captain Allen
at Key West May 20 concerning the pres
ence of the Spanish fleet at Santiago. The
addition was as follows:
The information obtained at that time from
Captain Allen and reported to the commander
in-chief some time near noon n
sndered sufficient at that time to cause a
change in the plan that had already been
adopted.
Captain F. E. Chadwick also returned to the
stand for the purpose Of correcting his former

Special to Times publican
Fort Dodge, Jan. 22.-The people of
Lehigh are much wrought up over the
terrible indifference to the public
health shown in the dnstaraly act of a
farmer living in Burnside township,
who brought butter to town to sell;
while members of his family were sick
with smallpox and he himself only par
italy recovered from an attack of the
loathsome disease It is learned that
while the family had been afflicted
With the disease, 1t had been carefully
concealed from the authorities for
some time to avoid the inconvenience
of quarantine. The climax was reached
last week when the man brought butter
10 town which he disposed OF to two
unsuspecting merchants. but fortu-
nately for the community the fact of
their having smallpox at his home be-
came known before any OF the com
modify had been used and it was
promptly burned The affair caused
consid erable commotion in the town
@oen it became known. The man was
hustled out of town in doubls-quick
time and a quarantine established with
strict instructions that any mem Der of
uhe family founsa away from the house
would be arrested at once. While sew
eral cases of the disease have made
their appearance in Lehigh, strict
measures We're adopted and the disease
is about stamped out.

bishop For sioux city.

Special to Times-Repubitcan
Sioux City. Jan. 22.-There is now
practically no doubt in the minds of the
people of Sioux city that Catholic
bishop will be seated here in the near
future. Very Rev. 4. Treacy, pastor
of st. aiary's church, which will be-
coma the cathedral when the bishop
arrives. stated that Archbishop Keane
would not come to Sioux City to con-
firm a large class which has been wait
ing for him. Dean Treacy explained
that the archbishop. while at Fort
Dodge a few days ago. said that he did
not intend to go to Sioux City for the
purpose OF administering confirm alton
for the simple reason that Sioux City
would soon have bishop of its own
and the new bishop would administer
the sacrament This announcement is
taken as pretty nearly conclusive. II
Is generally understood that Ri. Rev
T. NJ. Lehman. bishop OF Cheyenne
viii be Sioux city's bishop. He has
wanted to change from his present To-
cation on account Of his health.

Special to Times publican.
Fort Dodge, Jan. 22.-At business
meeting of the congregation of the Cor
l.us Christi church held, yesterday after
noon, arrangements we're made and
plans perfected for a thorough canvass
of the city and surrounding county in
the interest OF the projected new Catho-
lie academy.
The construction Of an academy was
started prior to the promotion of Fa-
ther Lehman, who is now bishop at
Cheyenne, Wyo.. but progressed no fur
Their than the completion of the founda-
ton. The division OF the diocese in this
city followed his promotion and the
project was lost sight of for time, ow-
ing to the dissension which the division
aroused. Committees have been organ
lied for the purpose OF canvassing the
city and county. "A board consisting Of
the more prominent members of the
church has been organized to have gem
eral supervision of the project. The new
building Will be a modern structure, to
cost not less than $4,000. and will be
built the coming season.

The Centu.y In History.

The story OF that century which is
now drawing to a close Will. venture
to think, prove to be one Of the most
important volumes In the whole his
tory Of civilization. do not say that
1t will be one Of the most brilliant.
for there may have been centuries
which flashed broader aud brighter
light over the worlds fields OF intel
lectual and moral darkness: centuries
of more startling conquest, of more
sudden change; centuries even of
greater trinmphs in literature and in
art. But the nineteenth century has
been a time of growth and OF develop
ment in all the paths of civilization
such as the worlds history has hardy
ever seen rlvaled and, In the applica-
ton of science to the everyday needs
of humanity, has never been eQualed.
When the century opened. there seem

cred NO Mans Land" dividing the
old civilization from the new. Asia
and Africa appeared to have nothing
to do with modern civilization except
as subject for the reader of history
or as an exploring ground for the trav-
Seler. Egypt was the land whittier Eu-
ropeans with q taste for antiquities

foreigners. The resl living world was
commonly regarded by Europeans as.

Mason City, Jan. EFF the dispatches
which have been sent out from Benton
Harbor. Mich, are true, 1T would appear
that Lewis Kirby, the famous whistler.
ras trilled his way into the heart and
won the hands OF many fair damsels.
Lew came to this city Friday, but is,
gone again. The dispa tches did it. They
state that Lew was married on Dec. 80
&c a Miss Lillian Hittell, musical In
structor in Benton Harbor college.
Miss Hittell was a member of the
League of Eligibles and a prize Of $500

the event was consummated after ten:
days courtship. Then the happy honey
moon was ended when information was;
received from Kendallyille, Ind, that he

place. Kirby got track of these dis
patches Monday morning and immedi-
ately left town. Kirby has wife living
here. A year ago she was Miss Maude
Pennington, Topeka, kas., society
she has heard about her husband is only
tCo true. He was In Benton Harbor and
she wrote to him there and sent him her
picture. She thinks that possibly those
letters and the picture may have been
responsible for his discovery. But Miss
Pennington was not the first blushing
bride that he had led to the altar, to the
positive knowledge of his friends. About
six years ago, in st. Paul. he was mar
ICED to Miss Anna Spagin of that city.
The marriage was much against the
will of the girls parents and at the time
of his marriage to Miss Pennington he
told his mother that the marriage had
been annulled by the Catholic church, of
which his wife was a member. His wife
kere is inclined to believe that a little

bring to light q great many more wives,
how many she does not dare to think.
Kirby has from youth been a wayward
boy and a great deal of deyiltry has
been charged up to him in his time
When he came home Friday he was
clear broke and had a first-class hard
luck story. He is master in the fine
art Of riding the bumpers and is proba-
bly, miles from here now. His parents
live In the south part OF town and are
hard working. respectable people. They
Eeenly feel the disgrace that has been
thrust upon them. Mrs. Kirby is nearly
prostrated His mother says that Lew
has often said that II he ever got into
trouble serious enough to send him to
the penitentiary he would commit sui
eide, and she expects every moment To
hear Of his dead body being found.
