MISS SAVERS TO RETURN.
Former Well-known Teacher of the
City Expects to Take Old Position
In Ainh School

The many Marshalltown friends of
Miss Harriet Savers, for a number OF
years instructor of German and English
In the high school of this city, will be
pleased to know that the prospects are
favorable for the board securing her for
her old position this year. Chairman
Click, of the committee on teachers, re-
ceived word yesterday from Miss Say
ers, who is at present in Cincinnati,
saving that she would consider the
proposition made her by the board and
give him an answer in the very near
future. Miss Sayers, since leaving here
after the close of the teachers institute
last summer, has been at Bridgeport,
Conn, and expected this fall, or after
the institute here, for which she has
been engaged as an instructor, to take
Il trip abroad. 1t is likely that she has
decided to give that up and return to
school work. The board is indeed for
tunate in securing Miss Savers, as she
is brilliant woman and has always
been considered one of the best teach
ers the high school has ever had.
The board is not anticipating having
much trouble in filling the vacant
places in the list of teachers this year.
Sc far there are but six vacancies re-
ported but more are expected by the
latter part of the month, or before
Aug. L, the date set for teachers to no.
tify the board If they do not expect to-
return, under forfeit of one months
paw, according to contract. AS many
Of the teachers wait until the last min
ute. or In order to see IL they may be
able to secure better positions. it is
likely that others will be heard from
to the effect that they do not expect to
return.
The six who will not be back next
year are Miss Esther Spencer. OF the
ligh school. whose marriage to Rev
Clarence Ross Gale, of Spokane, Wash.
is announced for this fall: Miss Lillian
Parker, of the high school, whose mar
riage was recently celebrated at Mason
City; Miss I4etta Thorpe, of the Arson
school. who has also been married
since the close of school: Mr. G. Il.
Quaife. of the high school, who has ac-
eepted another position for next year;
Miss Lillian Werner. of the Second
ward kindergarten, who is to make a
change in positions next year; ana MISS
Carrie Mcconnell, principal of the
Third ward, who goes to Seattle MY.
Quaife's successor has already been
practically decided upon. and MIR.
Crane. the new superintendent, has in
his mind a wel-known young woman
Eindergartner of DAYTON. O., whom he
thinks will be the right kind of a sue
cessor for Miss Werner. AS material is
Plentiful there will be no doubt but that
all the positions now known to be va
cant will be filled when school opens Oil

The fire alarm, that heretofore has
been In service al the pumping station,
was moved to the central fire station
Monday afternoon. Hereafter all PER-

Fire Horses Named.
The men of the central station have
adopted the right idea and have named
the two bays which compose the team
at the uptown station. The big,
handsome fellows have been christened
Charley and Irving. In honor of the
two members of the fire committee
from the First ward. Mr.. Charles Henry
and MIR. I. r. Kirby. The uptown men
are making rapid progress in training,
and Monday afternoon had the horses
hitched and were ready to leave the
barn in fourteen seconds.
The men at station No. . are not to
be oltdone by their brother firemen up
town, and have named the greys. Ihey
will be known as Bill and Jim. altho in
honor of whom the animals We're
named no one seems able to tell.

Wagon No. ColIides With Switch
Eneine-Other Fire Station News.
The first accident to Marshalltown's
new fire department occurred Monday
evening at S:45 o'clock, and that 1t
proved no more serious was purely a
matter of good luck. AS is the custom,
the horses are taken out for exercise
several times each day. While cross
ing the Iowa Central tracks on Third
avenue Monday evening the wagon was
run down by switch engine No. s. The
wagon had crossed the tracks going
north and had turned around to return
to the station. AS the wagon APP
preached the track the engine, pulling
a string of cars, went east and stopped
with about half the crossing uncov-
cred. Driver Leo Goodman, supposing
that the engine was going to continue
eastward down the yard. rang the gong
as he approached and attempted to go
around the end of the cars. AS the
wagon was on the track the engine
gave the cars q jolt and the corner of
the last one struck the wagon in the
middle. breaking the chemical tank ana
springing the rear axle. Goodman, the
driver, was thrown to the ground
striking the rail and sustaining severe
bruises about the head and shoulders
The horses showed their good sense by
not attempting to run, but Instead
stood perfectly still To those who wit
messed the accident it seemed that both
the driver and the switchman were
tritle careless. the former In trying 10

which was rung repeatedly. The wag-

CARNEY COMES TO GRIEF.
Young Man Alleged to Have Stolen
Watch in This City Arrested for
Grinnell Crime


Thomas Carney, a young man who.
several weeks ago, was alleged TO have
stolen a watch belonging to Hiram
Shaver, of this city, one day after he
went to the Shaver home to board, has
come to grief at Oskaloosa, where has
has been arrested for stealing So in
money and 200 cigars from the Chaplin
House, Gr!nnell. The prosecuting wit
ness in the case is Deputy Postoffice In
spector George Christian, proprietor of
the hotel. Carney was serving as night
clerk at the hotel at the time the alleged
robbery occurred.
Carney is evidently a shrewd young
fellow when it comes to shady transac-
tons. When he came here he called on
Rev. Father Lehman and told him he
had been recommended to him by the
late Rev. Father O.Carroll, Of Oska-
loosa. Anxious to help the young man
Father Lenihan in turn recommended
him to Euziere Bros, who We're in need
of clerk, and also to Mrs. Shaver, with
whom he secured board and lodging.
The only peculation for which it is all
legged he is responsible here is the
Shaver theft, and there is not conclu-
sive evidence that the was guilty of
even that, The watch disappeared the
same time Carney did, and 1t was re-
ported to the police at the time as the
supposition that he was the guilty

.1HE GLUE A FALSE 0NE
Officers Find Capsules at Lam
bert Home Thought to Con-
tain Morphine.
Investigation Shows That There
Was Not Sufficient Quantity
to Kill.
Inquest will Be Conducted as
Soon as Report OF Analysis
Is Received.

What was thought might prove an
important development in the Lambert
murder case was brought to light Mon
day evening at o'clock, when Coroner
L. p. Lierle and Deputy Sheriff c. s.
Hutson visited the Lambert premises at
sos Leverton street and secured, from
Il privy vault, box of capsules that
was thought might contain the drug
that caused Mrs. Lambert's death.
The box contained eight of the cap
stiles, filed with a white powder. Coro-
OF the powders and found what he con-
sidered a trace of morphine. To be sure
just how much, and the exact nature of
the prescription, the coroner telephoned
to Webb Souer, a druggist at Des
Molnes, whose label was on the box
containing the capsules. The pre-
scription was Numbered, and the date of
filling was Nov. %, 1901. Mr.. Souer's
reply to Coroner Lierle's inquiry, how
ever shows that the clue was a false
enc and that Mrs. Lambert's death
could not have been caused by these
capsules. The prescription Is shown to
have been two grains of morphine, six
ty of antipyrine and thirty Of quinine
sulphate. The powder was made into
fifteen doses, which would have reduced
the amount of morphine in each to
about one-seventh of a grain, four
grains of antipyrine and two of quiz
rine sulphate. Coroner Lierle says
that the probabilities are that the cap
sules were bought to use for hard
cold and headache, and that if Mrs.
Lambert had taken the entire fifteen
doses the result would not have been
fatal.
The report of the chemist making the
examination of the stomach and other
internal organs of the dead woman is
expected by the latter part of the week.
1t was expected to have held the in
quest either Wednesday or Thursday,
but it is now thought that it will be
postponed until the report of the analy-
sis is received from Des MoineS.
