TOOK safe AND CONTENTS.
That's the Way Robbers do Bust
ness in Iowa.
GOT $40, 900 AT MANILA, IOWA.
Rep. shaw, Formerly Commander of the
Grand Army of the Republic, Is Dead
Was Apparently In Good Health
When He Retired-ApopIexy.
Safe and $4,000 Taken.

Prompt and active work by the au,
thoritics at Manila, Ia, on the 10th re-
suited in the arrest of three men who
are suspected of having been implicated
in the theft Of a United States Express
safe said to have contained so, 900.
The robbers carried the safe distance
of about two blocks and then loaded it
into wagon which had been left there
in waiting. The wagon was driven
about mile and half into the coun-
try, the safe forced open and the con-
tents distracted. The men then
abandoned the safe and went their
way on new track. 1t was not diff
cult to trace them, however, and on
the above date three arrests were
made. Their names are John Jackson,
John Stovelt and Charles Hayes. All
are men who live at Manila and are
well born. Their regulations hereto
fore have not been bad They stoutly
protest their innocence, but the author
tiles believe the evidence against at
least two of them will prove conclusive.
The safe which was stolen contained
in the neigh borhood of $40, 900, S12, 900
was in cash and the remainder in
drafts, checks and various valuables.

was found dead on the morning of the

A physician, summoned Immediately
after the discovery, pronounced death
due to apoplexy, probably about 2
o'clock in the morning. Col. Shaw had
returned about 80 from banquet at
the Ebbi;t house in honor of his sue
cessor, Gen. Leo Rassieur, and before
he left the banquet hall had responded
eloquently to toast and appeared in
excellent health and spirits The body
was discovered lying face downwards
on the floor. The features were slightly
bruised, showing he had fallen sud-
denly and heavily. After his return
to the hotel Col. Shaw asked for no
water, complaining of indigestion
The water was brought to him and
that was the last seen of him alive.

Fear an Epidemic of Rabies.

The people of northern Muskingum
and southern Coshocton counties, Ohio,
are wrought up with apprehension of
an epidemic of rabies. Last Novem-
Der oand of gypsies traversed the
country, having with them a savage
dog which fought with the village and
farm dogs, wounding many. While
passing through Dresden the dog at
tackled Howard Stuller,a boy decorating
his face. 1t was thought at that time
that the dog was mad and the citizens
raised purse and sent the boy and
his parent to the Pasteur institute at
Chicago. where the lad was thoroughly
treated and discharged as cured. De-
spite the Pasteur treatment, however,
the boy was attacked by the rabies a
few weeks ago and after three days of
terrible suffering died in commissions.
So great is the fear that the other dogs
will go mad and more deaths result
that the killing of all the dogs along
the route traversed by the gypsies is
being strongly agitated and will prob
ably be done.

DDS That Deplete IL - In 10 Years

Truth Stranger Than Fiction.

That the truth is far stranger than
fiction has been demonstrated in Es-
canada by Joseph f. Reinger inherit
ing SlS0,00 with several years inter
est from an uncle who recently died in
Spain. The remarkable part of the
story is the romance connected with 1T
which is as follows: Mr.. Reingers
father came TO this country several
years ago from Brussels, Belgium,
leaving behind a younger sister and
his parents. Some time after Mr..
Reinger had settled in America he re-
ceived letter from his sister announc-
ing her marriage to "A young Spanish
officer by the name of Lantigo Fenoll,
who was at the time an attache OF the
Spanish legation in Brussels. A few
months after the marriage Fenoll was
promoted to a responsible position in
Valencia, Spain, and moved there with
his wife. After that Mr. Reinger
ceased TO hear from them. Last De-
cember letter was received from Mr..
Fenoll, telling of his great success in
Cuba and how he had amassed great
wealth 10y DESERVING the Spanish cause
and joining the Cubans; that he was
again free from military life and was
going back to Spain for his wife and
daughter On arriving in the country
he had deserted he was shocked to
learn of the death of his wife; was dis
covered by Spanish spy and sentenced
TO 3s years in prison, In prison he
was befriended by the prison priest,
by whose aid he was enabled to mail
the letter, which closed by requesting
some aid to escape the terrible punish
ment he was being put to. Feb.
word was received that Mr.. Fenoll was
dead, and copy of the will which
leaves to his nephew $50, 900 with the
interest, and giving him the care of
his daughter. The prison priest, FIR.
Pedro, with his young charge, is now
en- route for Escanaba, where the
young lady will doubtless make her
future home.

Farmer. Urged to Enrich the Soil.


In his annual address TO the State
Dairymen's association, President Fred
M. Warner stated that in the 2s coun-
ties in the southern four tiers of coun-
ties, 90 per cent of the farms and 70
per cent of the improved land in the
state are found. In this section So per
cent of the wheat, 70 per cent of the
corn. and 65 per cent OF the oats of the
state are grown. 1t contains go per
cent of the population of the state.
In 10 of these counties the population
has decreased during the past 10 years,
and in all but four of them the in
crease in the cities is balanced by the
decrease in the townships and unin-
corporated villages. The total loss in
population in these Is counties is 40
900. Gains are noticed in Monroe, Ber-
rien, Ottawa and Wayne, and are as
cribed to local causes.
These figures apparently show that
there has been a migration OF people
from the farms because of the lack of
profit in farming. While there has
been an increase of Is, 900 mich cows
and of 5000 cattle other than mich
cows in the last 10 years, there has
been loss of Is, 600 horses, 125, 900
hogs and $4,000 sheep in the same
period The land, becoming poorer
each year, furnishes subsistence for a
less amount of stock The farmers
were urged to make the soil richer by
feeding their hay and grain on their
farms rather than robbing the soil by
adopting methods that deplete it. The
The fertility of the farms should be
restored
