Mark Hanna has broken out again.
This time he. is after the clergy. He
became so wrought up at the recent
statement of the Reverend Herbert
Bigelow to the effect that whether
a man robs the public little or much
depends entirely ON whether he Is
sent to the United States Senate or to
the penitentiary, that he has been
calling ON some one to hold him from
Furnishing this reverend delinquent,
and threatens to take the hide on
him--figuratiyely speaking, when he
opens his campaign.
1t will be noticed that Mr.. Bigelow
did not mention Mark Hanna's name
in the statement referred to. And yet
the coat seems TO fit the Senator SO
we'll that he puts it right ON, and in
sists that the words used were Of and
concerning him.
1t is suggestive of the force OF the
reverends remark that conclusion
should be so hotly reached that II
meant Hanna, and that Hanna himself
should 30 readily recognize himself as
the target aimed at, and--it seems, hit.
We take the liberty of advising Sen
ator Hanna that he had better not
engage beforehand to argue with Mr..
Bigelow this question of how different
kinds of robbery are punished or re-
warded in these days, unless he Is
prepared to catch hold of the very hot
end of a political poker. His advisers
had better counsel their client not to
answer,--just as his attorneys did the
witnesses In q certain matter in whicl
his title TO a seat in this same Sen
nte was called in question.
But If he is bent on the discussion
NE may depend upon it that the Rev
erend Mr.. Bigelow will maintain Ms
END of it, and that too without deny
ing anything he has ever said on th'
subject before.
Mr. Hanna wakes wroth too ovel

After Rev. Nickerson's talk the real

in order, and as result of what fol-

enrolled on the church books of the
Second Baptist church.
Mrs. Rebecca Cobb, who acted as
clerk, presented the following resolu-
ton, which was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The present administra-

Whereas, The success of the ad-
ministration is dependent upon the un-

HUMANE SOCIETY WORK.
Director Meeting Held and Import
ant Action 1aken

| ant Action Taken.
That the Marshall County Humane
Society is alive to the fact that there
| Is work for the members to do was
evidenced by the large number of dlrec-
tors who attended the called meeting
at the office of Henry Pappe Friday
evening and by the enthusiasm which
prevailed thruout the entire meeting.
Rev. J. K. Black presided in the abb
scence of the president. The report
of the treasurer showed good balance
in the treasury and several new mem
bers We're elected. Many reports of
cruelty to animals. etc. had been re-
ceived by different members and as the
society is at present unable to employ
special officer, circular letters of
warning have been prepared by the
society and placed in the hands of the
secretary so that when cruelty case
7 is reported she can send one of these
warnings to the offender before the law
is brought to bear upon his case.
The principal feature of the meeting
was the very able report of Mrs. Flora
Powell Stone, who was the delegate
from this society to the state society at
Des Moines. 1t covered the ground gone
over by Mr. Miles of the Eldora reform
school and of Mr.. Fitzgerald of the
school for girls at Mitchellville. in their
addresses before the state society, and
also gave a resume of the reports of the
cussion of the cases which had come
out the state, showing lamentably that
in humane works the state of Iowa is
far behind all her adjoining states and
many other states in the union. A dis
cussion of the cases which had some
under the notice of the committee on
cruelty since the last meeting brought
out the fact that it is necessary that
the Marshall county society define Its
position as regards the work it hopes
and expects to do. 1t is not the aim of
this society to interfere In any manner
with the work of the oyerseer of the
poor nor the associated charities. That
while the members cannot close their
eyes and ears to the wall of poverty,
they will turn the cases brought to their
notice over to the first-named societies,
and only Interfere with work in fami-
lies where actual cruelty Is supposed to
exist. Any cases brought to the notice
of the secretary or other officers of the
humane society of poverty will be
promptly turned over to the associated
charities, but the society earnestly re-
quests every person knowing of such
cases, or of cases of overlooking teams,
neglecting to feed or water dumb
brutes. over-driving. or anything that
appeals to the tender mercies of the
many who are alive to the needs of this
vicinity to report them to the secre
tarv Mt her office West Main street
where they will be attended to with
out fear or favor. The Marshall Coun-
ty Humane Society hopes to have an
annual day soon. speakers from abroad,
music. etc. and hopes to interest every
man. woman and child in the work, so
that they may each feel the blessedness
of administering unto 1.-THE least of
these"

MARCUS SENTENCED.

The Mech Case Decided,

William Marcus who was convicted
of burglary at the present term of
court, was taken before Judge Caswell
for sentence this morning. The judg-
ment of the court was that he serve one
and one-half years in the penitentiary
at Fort Madison. Marcus was caught
in the act of emerging from the store
house of the Great Western, after he
had piled brasses and fixtures near the
window where he could reach them
from the outside.
The case of William Mech against
his mother. Mary Ann Mech, was con-
Guided Friday evening. Judge Cas-
we'll rendered decision holding that
the deed of the late Abel Meech con-
veying eighty acres of land to Mary
Ann Mech, which was made ten days
prior to his death, should stand. The
court in ruling held that even If Abel
Mech was not mentally responsible at
the time of his death, the property had
not passed out of the hands of the fam
Ny and would In time come to the heirs.
