sharks that set cold the blood OF those
they told the yarn to. The boys are all
newspaper sellers, John Shaw. John
Hickey and Henry Segurant. Their
account OF the shark and the narrow
escape they had frdm it is as follows.
Yesterday they were sent out to sea
To capture a duck which had got away
from a white man ashore They were
offered fifty cents for the recovery OF
the duck and started out for it in a
small boat. They made three trips
and failed TO get the duck. Finally
they got ont near the bell buoy and
saw the duck and gave chase. The
duck swan faster than they could
row. however. and they gave up the
pursuit
They started back and noticed that
they had company. A huge shark
said to have been fifteen feet long
was following the boat. He came
alongside and looked hungriiy into the
boat at the nice. tender, little boys
and made a dash for the frail craft
almost capsizing it, Several times he

unsuccessful. The boys were very
much frightened and one of them be

all rowed for dear life and getting
to the lighthouse the shark left them
and they came ashore.
Yesterday afternoon the trio of duck
hunters were the admired center of q

they told their story or a narrow es-

The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1901-10-10

Washington, Oct S.-The State De-
partment will make every possible eff
fort to secure the release of Miss Ellen
H. Stone, the missionary who was abb
Quoted by Turkish or Bulgarian bri-
gands. 1t is believed that the $4,000
demanded for her ransom will be
collected and will be placed to the
credit of the state department. Act
ing Secretary Adee will at once cable
to Consul General Dickinson to draw
on the department for the entire
amount demanded by the brigands and
at once enter into negotiations with
the agent of the brigands to have Miss
Stone released. Mr. Dickinson will be
authorized to pay over the money to
this agent and the state department
has promised to take steps immediate
ly to collect the sum from Turkey or
Bulgaria, according to the nationality
OF the br.gands who are responsible
foS the outrage.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1901-10-10
Chicago ofice-Ho1der indicted.

Chicago, Oct S.-Robert E. Burke,
oil inspector, has been indicted by the
grand jury for the enlightenment of
$4,000. Two bills were returned
against the secretary of the Democrat
ic county central committee, both
charging him with the same offense
Oil Inspector Burke declares that any
shortage in his accounts is due to neg
lect of subordinates, as he has never
seen a report since his appointment
four years ago. He explains that he
offered to make complete restitution Of
all sums covered by both indictments
before the grand jury submitted its
report. One Of the bills covers al
legged populations of $4,000 by the oil
inspector during the year 1900. The
other deals with the reported theft of
$4,000 of the public funds in the cur
rent year. Embezzlement is a peni-
tertiary offense.
