Condemns Him for
Administering Water Cure.
Washington, July 24-Secretary Root
has sent to the President at Oyster
Bay the proceedings and findings in
the court martial cases of MAJ. Edwin
F. Glenn. Fifth infantry; Lieut.. Julien
.Gaujot, Tenth Cavalry. and Lieut..
Norman e. Cook, Of the Philippine
scouts. Glenn was found guilty of adj
ministering the water cure to natives
or permitting it to be done, and was
sentenced to one months suspension
from duty and fined $50 Lieut. Cook
was acquitted on a. charge of giving
orders to kill three Filipino prisoners
The testimony showed that he had
given orders to shoot the prisoners II
they attempted to escape. The Filipino
scouts, to whom this order was given,
thought 1t meant to shoot the prison
.ers. In forwarding the cases to the
president the secretary recommends
that the sentences and findings be APP
proved. but that no other action shall
be taken. It is not believed that the
president, who is reviewing authority
in these cases, will make any COM
1nents such as were delivered by him
in the case OF Gen. Smith. It is shown
in the evidence and reports that Maj.
Glenn has. performed excellent service
and has done much to- pacify the coun.
try in which he has been in command.

\ lie sueur, Mimi, July 25.-one Of the

TO light here yesterday morning. A
summer school for teachers is being
held at Montgomery. Miss Bertha
Pfeifer is school teacher attending
the summer school. She lives about
two and one-half miles southwest OF
Montgomery with her parents, her
father being a rich farmer. Tuesday
morning about o'clock she was walk
ing to Montgomery when she was over
taken by a man and woman driving a
black team Of horses attached to a
covered buggy. They asked her to
ride. She refused. The woman then
alighted from the buggy, grappled
with Miss Rfe1fer and placed hand
kerchief saturated with chioroform to
her face, Miss Pfeifer falling into a
semi-conscious state. They kept up
the rain shields of the buggy so that
spassers-by could not see into the We
hicle, butawhen they alighted for lunch
Miss Pfeifer, who had nearly recovered
from the effects of. the drug, escaped
through the woods two miles to a
farmers house, where. she sank ex-
hausted.

Doc Ames is a sick man. I don't think
you Will ever see him alive.in Mime

face fs as sharp as razor. It is drawn
and haggard, and he is growing gray
rapidly. The mayor has aged ten
years in the last three months. I new
er saw a man SO nearly broken down.
The mayor has been worried to death.
Every time anything happened some
fool ran to him and told him about it.
The threats that have been made
against him and his administration
and the doings of the grand jury save
made him a nervous wreck. Fred
Ames will return to Minneapolis. He
will be back here at the end Of the
week at the latest. He went away for
little rest after his trial. EIe is thor
oughly rested now and will return to

II MILLIONAIRE NOW.
Wonderful Career of Ex-senator
Pettigrew.


Pettigrew.
Washington, July Is. - Every little
while ex-senator Pettigrew drops into
town. He does not linger long; the at
mosphere of New York is more salubri-
GUS. Washington Is where he toiled
and was poor; New York Is where he
took a chance and got rich. He is
rated as a millionaire. He is factor
in Wall street, and has fine house on
Fifth avenue - or could have If he
wanted it. The turning point in his
b dsiness career seemed to be the mo-
ment of his leaving the senate. He was
poor when his term expired in March,
1901. He took the first train for New
York, and began to plunge. 1t was
about the time the Northern Pacific
corner was run. Ed Wolcott of Col
orado was there, and Steve Elkins, and
number of other senators. Grandpa
Cockrell thought he would take fling,
but the boys gave him the wrong steer
and he burned his fingers. But Mr..
Pettigrew had done favors for Jim Hill,
and it is more than likely that Hill
gave him a tip. Anyway, he is a
financier now.

while the farmers are gathering in the
golden grain the threshers have their
heads together, with the object of
forming combine to raise the rate of
pay for threshing. A systematic cam

perfect their union before the thresh-
ing season is far advanced. Every
county in the state is being can

present rates. Several meetings have
