days on every week this lady may be
i seen in her dainty cap and apron show
ing the children of the slums how to
get the most nourishment possible out
of a scent soup bone, and teaching
them innumerable other economical
and perchance palatable dishes.
1 There Is no maudlin sentiment about
Mrs. Goldsham. Her aim is to find
the chief cause OF poverty, and her
questions are direct and so to the root
of the matter.
As her social duties among her OWL
set ill her afternoons, she must
necessarily make her calls among the
poor in the mornings which is some
times inconvenient for her hostesses
who not infrequently leave the washtub
to receive her.
Now it happened one morning that
Mrs. G. caused no end of happiness
and a great furry of excitement by
inviting the pupils of her cooking
class to a luncheon to be given at heI
elegant country home. Every one of
the % pupils accepted with not one
regret.
The day arrived. Our hostess beau
tifully gowned, and seated at the head
of the table. was in her element. She
was not only giving these children an
object lesson. but she was duly Impress
ing the wife of the bishops and the
governors wife that she was solving
one of the city's social and economic
problems.
AT the right of our philanthropist
sat one of her most promising pupils
Roxsan by name.
"Roxsan is really remarkable" said
Mrs. G. 1T is wonderful. the way she
observes and initiates. She has already
inspired her father and mother with a
desire to better their condition..
"How encouraging" said the COVER
nor's wife.
$50 uplifting" murmured the wife of
the bishop.
Roxsan, radiant with happiness and
perfectly at ease, ratified away, vouby.
"Dooz You own this house, Mrs. Gold
hsam. or dooz you rent it?'
I'VE own it. Rsxsan."
"Oh, amt that nice; shows you ben
real savin' and amt wasted your mon
ely. But amt it bigger than you
needs?'
Certainly not" Mrs. G.. frowned,
but the frown was lost on Roxsan.
There was moments silence, then the
girl leaned forward and whispered in a
confidential tone:
Mrs. Goidsham. dooz your husband
ever get drunk" Mrs. G. blushed
furiously.
Roxsan, you are exceedingly rude;
and / will ask you to leave the table"
Poor Roxsan hung her head with the
apology, II didn't know I was bad
Mother told me to talk nice like the la
dies that called on us, and that's the
way you talks when you comes to our
house."
The eastern papers are telling a good
story on former Iowa Judge who with
his daughter. recently called upon May
or Low. 1t was the first time either had
met the mayor and the judge being
republican,, insisted on talking politics.
But the mayor grew just a little tired
of the subject, and turning to the young
lady, said:
And may ask why you are in New
York;"
Certainly" replied the daughter;
I'VE are here to see the sights, and so
we thought we would call on YOU" And
the mayor is still wandering what the
young lady meant.

derstanding of a letter he recently is
sued to agents directing the modifica-

mainly directs that agents cut eff all
privileges from returned students who,
after coming back from Carlisle school
and similar institutions, paint their
faces. indulge in barbaric dances and
feats and wear long hair like the old
Indians. He says tact, Judgment and
perseverance should be used and that
agents should begin gradually and
work steadily until the end in view is
accomplished. 1t is not expected nor
intended that agents shall be so precip-
itate as to give the Indians any just
cause for revolt This announcement,

Washington, Jan. 20.-Having failed,
after two years strife, in subduing the
insurrection in Batangas province
which lies just south of Manila, and
having satisfied himself that lenient
treatment of insurgents are productive
of no good results, General Franklin
Bell military commander of that prov
ince, determined on enforcement of the
war in the most vigorous and deter
mined fashion. involving reconcentra-
ton in a modified form. application OF
martial law in all directions. and un-
sparing pursuit and punishment of ma

substance it provides for establish

prevent collection of forced contribu
tions from inhabitants by insurgents.

tablished.

BAD FIRE AT BOONE.
Millinery Store Wrecked and Postoffice
Building DAMAGED.

Special to Times-Republican
Boone, Jan. pa fire in the postoffice
building Sunday evening wrecked mill
linery store and did much damage to
the building. The fire is supposed to
have started in the millinery store of
Mrs Elizabeth White. While the cause
is not known 1t is supposed to have
been started from a kerosene lamp
falling to the floor and exploding. The
interior in the millinery store was filed
with light goods and all around the
room were curtains and draperies. These
quickly caught and spread the flames to
the ceiling and the rear of the building
where Mr. White made his home. The
apartments just over the millinery store
We're ruined and the household goods
were made almost useless. This was
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Alec Gillian.
Smoke and water did much damage to
the rest of the upstairs but all the fam
lies We're able to occupy their rooms ex
cept the Gilliams. No damage wac done
to the post office beyond a soaking from
the water and a smoking from the
smoke.
The loss will be quite heavy altho

LANE is SENTENCED.
Judge Whitaker Gives the Alden Wife
Murderer Twenty five Years in the
Anamosa Penetentiary.

Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Jan. 2O.-Judge j. r. Whitaker
this afternoon sentenced John Lane, of
Alden, who pleaded guilty Friday to
murder in the second degree, to twenty
five years in the Anamosa penitentiary.
The sentence was surprise to the big
crowd which had gathered in the court
room to hear the old mans doom pro-
pounced 1t was rather expected that
the Judge would give him much lighter
penalty Several witnesses were put on
the stand and questioned by the judge,
among them being the old mans son-in-
law, who said he believed Lane was sane
when he committed the crime. Lane sat
with his head bowed during the proceed
ings and did not utter a word of protest
at the harshness of the sentence He VIII
probably be taken to the penitentiary
tomorrow. The sentence in his case
means life term, as Lane is already an
old man.
The crime for which Lane was SEN
fenced today was the killing of his wife
at Alden last summer. The cause he as
signed was revenge on his relatives for
having warned druggists in the county
rot to sell him intoxicating liquors.
S. C. Butte was indicted Saturday by
the grand jury for criminal libel. 1t is
not probable his trial will be reached at
this term of court.

TALK OF NEW MERGER.
Much Interest Taken in the Rock
Island-B., c. r. & N. Consolidation

jsland-B. C. r. e. N. Consolidation
Rumor.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls, Jan. 20.-Much interest
is taken here in the report OF the pos
sible merging of the b., G. r. q n.
road into the Rock Island system.
which now controls seventy per cent
of the stock of the Iowa road. This
report grows out of the fact that the
Rock Island has come under the Moore
system and the possibility of the Bur
lington being operated as a division of
the Rock Island road. with head
quarters in Chicago. That the Bur
lington will soon be completed into
the Twin cities indicates that bid
will be made for northwestern freight
and passenger traffic which will natur-
ally be diverted to the Rock Island.
The recent requirement of the c., l. &
ID. by the Chicago & Northwestern
road places this city in direct COM
munication with that big trunk line
and should the b., c. r. & N be merg-
ed into the Rock Island. Iowa Falls
would be given the service of three of
the biggest lines in the west, namely,
the Illinois Central, the Chicago. Rock
Island & Pacific and the Chicago &
Northwestern roads.
