Mrs. Noonan Of Chester. Heads
the List of Aged People the
This State.

Lime Springs, Ia, Jan. 2S.-About
two miles southwest of Chester, Ia,
lives Mrs. Noonan, believed to be the
oldest person in Iowa, and perhaps in
the northwest.
Mrs. Noonan was born in Woodford
county, Galway, Ireland, August IA,
1894, and is therefore, 10s years of age,
and has lived In three centuries. Her
maiden name was Julia Lynch.
Eighty-one years ago next March
she was married to Michael Noonan,
supervisor of government roads In her
native country. In the fall of 1854
they came to America and established
their home at Gewark, Ohio. Three
years afterwards they moved to War
nersville, Wis, and again, in 1872 to
Chester, Iowa.
Mr.. Noonan died in 1882. Since the
death of her husband she has lived
with her only son, Patrick Noonan,
the youngest member of her family,
now SIS years of age. Mrs. John Kelly
of Chester, and Mrs. James Cannon,
of Cresco, Iowa, are the other two
daughters. One of her deceased daugh-
ters was Mrs. Thomas O'Hare, of Fort
Dodge, Iowa.
Mrs. Noonan remembers we'll the
time Queen Victoria was born. She
was in Dublin at the time Victoria
was crowned and was living also at
the time that Napoleon became en-
! peror of France. She Is eager to live
out her long life to its very end.
Mrs. Noonan likes to be among chill
dren, and likes to listen to their noise.
She sews without glasses. Some OF
her fancy work took first prize In the
Howard county fair of 1901. Her fac
ulties are all good. She gets her own
breakfast, makes her own bed, and
walks about the room with no support
but her cane.
The ancestors of Mrs. Noonan were
nearly all given long leases of life.
She has always been healthy. She
has lived on plain food, and still has
a very good appetite. Her converse
tion is mostly about things as they
were fifty or seventy-fiue years ago.
The number of her living grand
children is thisty-four. She also has
twenty great grandchildren.

Recent Note to Britain.

The Hague, Feb. 3-There was IN
wonted activity in diplomatic circles
here Saturday, and it was generally be-
lieved to have had some connection
with the Dutch note to Great Britain
regarding peace negotiations in South
Africa. The German minister, Count
Won Pourtales, had a long interview
with the British minister, Sir Henry
Howard; the first secretary of the le-
cation, A. F. G. Leveson-Gower, unex-
pectedly started for London, and the
Dutch foreign minister, Baron Van
Linden, had a conference with Dr. Kuy-
per, the premier of The Netherlands,
and, subsequently had an audience
with Queen Wilhelmina.
When Baron Van Lynden returned
from the palace Sir Henry Howard
went to the foreign office and held a

GERS FRANK Holiday and Aaron Thomp-

GERS Frank Holiday and Aaron Thomp-
son, the latter under command OF
Chief of Police Robert Ray, of But
Ter. The officers were certain that
they were on the right trail. 1t was
only question of time when they
would catch up with the escaping con-
demned murderers and their guilty
companion.
The Biddles and Mrs. Soffel ate din
ner at j. j. Stephens at Mt. Chestnut,
five miles east of Butler. They had
made detour of the town of Butler,
and after going several miles east
turned north and then west. The
Pittsburg officers, only few miles in
the rear, took the wrong road for
about eight miles, butwhen they found
their mistake they made up for lost
time by telephoning and telegraphing
ahead for fresh horses. They reached
Mt. Chestnut not less than half an
hour after the Biddles and Mrs. Soffel.
At this point William Watson, store
keeper, had fresh horses awaiting
them, and the chase for life began
anew.
Shot to Kill.
! The two sleighs, with the eight Off
GERS aboard started westward, and met
the Biddles and Mrs. Soffel at McClure's
barn. two miles from Mount Prospect,
the Biddles having learned that they
were almost overtaken, and taking
what they considered the only chance
they had, drove eastward and met their
doom. The Pittsburg and other Off
GERS were armed with Winchester
rifles and revolvers of large caliber.
They shot to kill and their aim was
perfect. The Biddles tried to kill to
the last of their string, but not one of
the eight officers has wound as re-
suit of the battle.
Relieved to BE Dying.
Butler, Pa. Feb. 3.-The Biddles are
believed to be dying, and, contrary to
expectations, Jack may pass away
first.
Inflammation has set in his bow
els, which were torn to pieces with
bullet wounds, and it is said he cannot
live long.
Ed Biddle is in a dying condition
He is in commissions, and the death rat
tie has been detected in his throat.
Mrs. Soffel has developed pneu
: monia. and her condition is more Sc
rious than ever.
The change in Mrs. Soffel's condition
: is due to her long, wild ride through
the wintry air and the exposure re
sulting from insufficient clothing ant
lack of food, and also from the intens
excitement and strain under which sh
: has labored ever since she fled witt
the murderers.
) Her condition is precarious.

Conflict over Prisoners Feared.
