NICELY TRAPPED.
Young Clarence Deal, of waterloo,
Made One Too Many Deals with
q Girl for His Comfort.

Clarence Deal was arrested in Wa
terloo on charge of obtaining
money under false pretenses. He
was keeping. company with Miss Min
ME Stoddard, waitress at the Lo-
gan house, who had accumulated
$3.50 which she had on deposit in q
bank at Manchester. Deal persuaded
her to allow him to take the money
giving her deed to lot which app
pears to be in the Cedar river. He
skipped for Utah and then wrote her
of an opportunity to double the
money of the loan if he could secure
500 more.
Advised by an attorney, she wrote
an affectionate letter but sent no
money, Letters followed in the hope
OF trapping the young man and eff
fecting his arrest, and it worked.
He returned to the city and sent
her note asking that she meet him
at the station. When Deal appeared,
Sheriff Law placed him under arrest.
His relatives will return the money
to Miss Deal and she will not prose-

Soldiers form Manila Who Have
Gone Mad.

Chicago, March l6.-A car of insane
soldiers passed through to-day. There
were eighteen in number and they are
being sent from the Philippines to the
soldiers hospital at Washington.
Every one of the eighteen is violent
ly and incurably insane. Their wild,
hagard faces peered menacingly
through the windows of their coach
manacled hands wildly threatened the
onlookers and their fiendish shrieks
and laughter echoed through the de.
pot. Few of them we're apparently
diseased in body.
The maniacs were in charge of {
squad of soldiers armed with clubs
The guards said IN reply to questions
that a consignment of s core or two
scores of maniacs from the Philippines
was by no means unusual.
The affection is due principally Il
indulgence in the Filipino "vino" anc
other harmful liquors sold in Manila
aggravated by the heat. The malady
is of violent and persistent nature
and will not respond to any treatment
that has yet been discovered.
AS the train pulled into the station
this afternoon there was sound as OF
a meragerie approaching. The i'm
prisoned men were chattering, snarl
ing, moaning and whining like wild
beasts and the noise was terrifying tc
to the spectators.
Depot employees and trainmen WHIT
passed the car, not knowing of the
presence of the maniacs, WeIe- greatly
frightened when they heard snarl Of
rage and then looked up into the
fendish faces, which had their lips
drawn back and teeth exposed. One
man tainted from horror and fright
and was compelled to receive medical
aid.
The guards state that sometimes
for hours the men will be perfectly
docile and will give no signs of insan'
ity. They will pay cards by the houl
and chat among themselves. Sudden
ly something unusual will happen, ar
excitement arises and then bedlam
breaks loose. IT requires the com
bined force of the guards and Of the
one negro lunatic, who at present. i'm
AGNES himself to be guard, to qpel
the disturbance. This negro is con
stantly on the watch for trouble, an6
takes forceful part in it when il
comes. His especial enemy is large
German, whom he watches like &
hawk.

How Trusts are Made.


The revelations made in Newark in
fiour-milling case justify Vice-Chan-
cellor Pitney's emphatic remarks up
on the practice of overbonding Gin
dustrials" and the folly of investors
who buy such bonds without investi-
ffation.
The value of the fourteen mills In
the combination was estimated in
court at So, 100000. Upon this slight
basis SIS, 100000 in bonds had been
authorized and s7,5oo,OOO actually is
sued, secured" by mortgage on the
properties. The "upsetprice" for the
foreclosure sale, which includes such
intangible assets" as goodwill and
trade marks, was provisionally fixed
by the court a $3.50, O0O-one-quarter
of the authorized bond issue.
Uuder such bonding the stock of the
dead company was worse than worth
less. 1t was possibly hoped that its
magniloquent title might lead inves-
tors to suppose that the Omitted
States Flour Milling Company was a
real monopoly, controlling the big
Western mills, as it was not.
How many other trusts" ale there
whose bonds are twice or thrice the
value of their properties and whose
stock is worth nothing except to Gun
load?'-N. Y. World.

The decline and fall of the old re-
publics of the world came through
two principal causes; the concentra-
tion and control of its lands and of
the productive energies OF the masses
in the hands of few, and the conse-
quent impoverishment and enslave.
ment of the masses to those who
controlled the land and gathered the
wealth produced by its toilers. AS a
necessary step the masses were lulled
into a state of Indifference by q
splendid display Of pageantry, races,
bull fights, the contest of gladiators
in the arena and in games and feasts.
Amusements Of all kinds were pro-
vided for those who were sbeing plum
dered. The few who would think and
reason, and who sought to arouse the
people from their Indifference and
lethergy were scoffed, sneered and
ridiculed, and driven into exile or to
death by those for whom they labored.
at these exhibitions of strength, the
priests and teachers of the people
were present Jas interested spectators
thus lending Encouragement and coun-
tenance to the public degradation.
Like causes produce like effects is a
fact taught in all the schools ofexperi-
ence and is of universal application.
What are the tendencies of our own
time and generation? The Rock
efellers and the Carnegies with their
vast wealth are taking possession OF
our colleges, and the divine rights OF
the people as asserted in the DECLARE
tion of American Independence have
to give place to the divine right OF
kings and emperors.

Complicated Affair.

One of the inconsistent features of
the pension business is that If sol.
dier's widow asks for pension, the
first inquiry comes from the depart
ment: elias she money enough to pro-
vide salt for her use?" and If the an
swer be yes the claim is rejected. On
the other hand, If widow of gen
eral OF prominent politician asks
for Is, 1000, no matter if she is worth a
million, Congress appropriates the
sum demanded and pats itself on the
back for its liberality to the widow
and the orpban.-West Union Gazette.

DEsERTER CAPTURED.
Soldier Who Tired of Army Life and
Escaped Taken by Officers
in Des Moines.

Two officers from Fort Crook, Oma-
ha, arrived in Des Moines and took
charge of Irwin Jameson, deserter
who was captured there. Jameson
enlisted but month ago. He was
royalty entertained at the quarters
in Des Moines and well cared for in
the shape of Pullman car service en-
route from Des Moines to San Fran
cisco, where he was sent February i.
After reaching the. barracks at Pre-
sidio, and engaging in the real army
life he deserted, concluding that the
way of the soldier was not all strewn
with roses. He had managed in
some way to get back to Iowa, but
was caught when he reached Des
Moines. The penalty for a willful
desertion is dishonorable dis
charge and from six months to a
year in the penitentiary at hard la.
Dor. Jameson is but 1S years of
age.

IOWA STATE NEWS.
A WONDERFUL RECORD.
Held by an Iowa Engineer Recently
Placed on the Retired List by
the NorthMS. .ern Road.

Engineer l.. Sisco, who celebrated
his sixty-sixth birthday anniversary
in Clinton. undoubtedly holds the
most wonderful record of any loco
motive engineer in the world. On
the first day of last January he was
placed on the pension list of the
Northwestern company after AZ
years of continuous service in the
employ of this company as an engi-
neer. The following facts will be
read with interest:
During the AZ years he rode in the cab o
distance OF 1,4O2.2f miles-nearly far
enough to have made three round trips to
the moon. Had he kept his engine going
in the same direction he would have cir
COMMUNICATED the globe 56h times. II
stood on top of each other 1t would take
1882, 1854 $40 men to represent the distance
travelled in an engine by Sisco.
Taking "a feet as the average length
OF freight car. he would have pulled
OF SO tons to the car he would have pulled
6,5S3. 054.2S0 pounds of freight. Taking four
cents mile as a basis for compensation
he has drawn from the Northwestern Rail-
way company the sum of $56.091.SS
When Engineer Sisco first commenced
70 Work on the northwestern road the
line was but IS miles long. This was In
1857. He was given an engine April Is,
1860. The line then extended west as far
as Cedar Rapids. He is one of the sur
vtving engineers who ran Pioneer engine
No. l, later called the Bison" The en-
gines then were all wood burners.
One of the most remarkable phases of
Sisco's career is he never had an acci-
dent of any consequence and has never
been laid of for day. He has worked
under II master mechanics. Sisco has been
member Of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers for the past % years
His last run was made on engine No. 555
which pulled the Des Moines passenger.
Engineer Sisco says he has lived to see
railway on which 40 years ago 20 miles
an hour could not have been made without
strewing the track with wrecks improved
until 100 miles an hour can safely be made
by one Of the new Northwestern locomo.

"BuIIy for Waller"

General Funston pauses in bis
attacks upon those who do not agree
with him to say "Bully for Waller; l
am glad he did it," Major Waller Is
an officer in the Philippines who has
been called to account for the charge
of executing natives of the island OF
Samar without trial. A Manila dis
patch to the New York World, under
date of March 6, referring to acts OF
Major Waller and an associate officer,
says:
Some of the circumstances in
the case are peculiarly atrocious.
One native was tied to tree and
publicly shot in the thigh. The
next day the man was shot in the
arms. The third day he was shot
in the body, and the fourth dav
the native was killed.
Friends of the two officers
attribute their actions to loss OF
mind, due to the privations which
they suffered in the island OF
Samar.
If it was true that these men, be-
cause of priyationS, had lost their
reason, then men would generally be
extremely sorry for them. But If the
act has been correctly described in
this Manila dispatch, no man having
one drop of the milk of human kind
ness within him would applaud the
act itself.
1t is, however, not in the least sur
prising that a man who has the impu.
dence to stand before an intelligent
audience in free and enlightened
country and advocate the hanging Of
men who disagree with him or
questions of national policy-it is, WE
say, not the least surprising that suct
man applauds the cruelty described
in the Manila dispatch.
General Funston has had such re
markable success in monopolizing al
the credit for the capture of Aguinal
do that he'is perhaps encouraged tt
believe that he could just as readily
execute all the people in the United
States who oppose the administration
Philippine policy and not hesitate te
make their opposition known.
Doubtless when all the truth con.
corning affairs in the Philippines
shall become known twill appear that
General Funston has been given con
siderable more credit than reall!
belongs to him; because it is Difficult
to believe that if he we're so brave anc
so big man as friendly correspond
ents have made him appear, he wonlc
shrivel up to the extent that it would
be possible for him to advocate the
hanging of American citizens who
oppose the Philippine policy upor
