APPEAL BOND PLACED AT $1,000
George w. Smith and Wife, of Gilman,
Sentenced by Judge casweII to Five
Months in Jail and Fined $500 Each
Nuisance Will BE Abated-court's
Ruling Pleases Gilman People.

George w. Smith and wife, Ella
man House, a hostelry in the little towil
of Gilman, We're late Saturday after
noon fined and sentenced for contempt
of court. Judge Caswell imposed SEN
tence of five months in Jail, and fined
each $500. The appeal bond was fixed
at $1,000.
Judge Caswell held that the Gilman
hotel landlord and wife were clearly
guilty Of contempt, and acted accord
amount of evidence that was intro
duced, have been conducting a ques-
tionable resort at their hotel, and have
been selling liquor contrary to law. 1t
was in the sales of liquor that they dis
Obeyed the order of the court, as they
We're permanently enJoined at the jan
uary term from selling liquors OF any
kind within the confines of the Seven
teenth judicial district.
The evidence of the state was large
~ in the shape of afildavits from Wit
nesses who had been employed by the
Gilman Canning Company during the
recent packing season. A number of the
employees boarded at the hotel and from
their affidavits it was shown that they
not only had to inquire for the sale OF
LIQUOR to the landlord, but that 1t was
offered to them and sold by the drink OF
bottle Both beer and whisky were dis
posed Of by the landlord, according to
the affidavits.
The evidence given by the witnesses
for the state did not show that the
Smiths were guilty of bootlegging alone,
but conducted q gambling joint. with
wide-open games running in the hotel
Office and in different rooms. Crap
shooting for drinks seemed to be IA
vorite pastinle of some OF the boarders.
Aside from this witnesses We're fur
nished by the state who went to prove
that licentious women We're kept by
Mrs Smith in the guise OF dining room
girls.
The point that the defense laid the
most stress upon was that the witnesses
OF the state were not men of character
and that their evidence was not of suf-
ficient weight to convict. The court
stated, however. that it was hardly pos
sible, nor was it expected, that men Of
character could be secured to testify as
witnesses i'll whisky case, because
they are not usually concerned in such
affairs. A lawless element, he said. up
held lawlessness, and II the witnesses
for the state showed that the hotel was
being conducted in open violation of the
law, those witnesses could not be con-
sidered as belonging to the lawless ele-
ment.
The courts ruling pleases the hes.
people of Gilman greatly and Judge
Caswell was personally congratulated
after the hearing for the manner in
which he disposed of the case.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith are not In Jail as
yet, having been given until today to
furnish their appeal bonds.

ASSAULT wATERLoo's COACH.
Large Number of Small Boys Act
shamefulIy at Close Of Foot Bal

Game.
A couple Of hundred small boys, and
some not so very small, either, brought
the foot ball game Saturday between
the Waterloo and Marshalltown high
school elevens to regretable close.
Evan S. Evans, of Hampton, a mem
Der of Grinnell's foot ball team last
year, this year teacher in the East
side high school at Waterloo and coach
OF the foot ball squad, was assaulted
by some one of the big crowd of young
sters which gathered around him after
the game, to rebuke him for having
kicked George Jackson. colored, dur
ing the game Evans probably did act
somewhat indiscretely in kicking the
lad, but he was in the way and con-
tinued to remain on the grounds after
having been repeatedly told to keep
behind the side lines. After the game
the crowd surrounded Evans and 1t
looked for a time as If he might be
roughly handled. Some one threw q
small stone at him, striking him on
the nose, and cutting a small cash,
from which he bled profusely. Blood
seemed to be all that the crowd was
unmolested further than a continual
jeering all the way down town from
the grounds by the hooting mob that
followed him.
Actions of this kind are just what
give many people the wrong idea of a
foot ball game, and hurt the sport.
While the local foot ball team was in
no wise connected with it, and would
have done all in its power to prevent
any such scene If it had known OF
the circumstances in time, the members
should arrange for police protection at
games. There is no reason why law
lessness should occur at a foot bal,
game more than at any other outdoor
sport and an example of one or two
boys who crawl over the fence to
games and then make a nuisance out
OF themselves, would have an effect of
putting a stop to the trouble.

arrested Saturday afternoon on the
streets of Des Moines, where he was ac-

Denbow jumped from a moving street

sprained left knee. Grandon was
brought here, placed in Jail for safe
keeping until this morning, when he
was taken to Albion for his preliminary
hearing before Justice Robert Dehbow.
Constable Denbow and MIR. Filler, who
accompanied him, had a merry chase
after their man and it was only bit OF
good luck that they succeeded in cap
turing him. After leaving here Friday
night for Colfax, where 1t was supposed

Contractor Robert Ely, of this city,
Constable Denbow found that the bird
had flown. The constable and Mr.. Filler
did not sleep all night Friday, but insti-
tuted careful search thru the boarding
camps affording living quarters for Mr..
Elzy's men. They went from Colfax to
Saylor and then to Valeria, searching
the camps and walking all the way.
They found at Saylor that Grandon had
gone to Des Moines and there they pro-
ceeded from Valeria. Taking street
car down down Constable Denbow saw
Grandon on the street. The car was
moving rapidly and Mr.. Filler, in his
haste to get it stopped, pulled the wrong
cord and rang up three fares on the In
dicator instead of sounding the stop
signal. The conductor refused Filler
permission to alight until he settled.

away from the man they were seeking
Denbow jumped, alighting in such &
manner as to badly sprain his left knee.
The pain did not hurt him, however, for
he got his man.

THE GLUCOSE CASE.
Much Interest Locally in Saturdays
Supreme Court Decision.

The decision of the supreme court
Saturday. which announced a decision
in the Tana-Glucose case, as given in
these columns Saturday afternoon, is
or considerable interest locally. The
case is not the one pending in which a
permanent injunction is asked, but
rather a criminal action, brought by
the state upon an Indictment, for pol
luton of the river. The lower court
rendered Judgment against defend
ant. the Glucose Sugar Refining Com
pany, for maintaining public NUS
ance in the shape of discharging sew
en- which empties into the Iowa river at
Marshalltown. 1t was tried in the
Tama district court by Judge Burn
ham. The indictment charged defend
ant with causing the waters of the
Iowa river in Tama county to become
polluted thru refuse mater and various
chemicals emptied into the river by de-
PENDANTS discharging sewer at it's Mar
shalltown plant. Especially was this
complaint made by citizens engaged in.
operating paper mills on the river at
rama. The appeal from the Judgment
of the lower court was made on the
ground that the verdict was without
support and also on the ground that
the cause was not triable in Tama
county,as well as that admission of GER
tain evidence was erroneous. None of
these contentious was sustained. The
court IN disposing or the first one says:
Ihat the discharge from the sewer
was as rank as Richards defense is
abundantly shown. 1t is also shown
that the river below the sewer became
foul, emitted sickening odors, left a
stocky, gelatirous deposit on the stones
and substances immersed in 1t and
clogged and interfered with the work.

inhabitng the waters died In large
numbers and the stencil of their de-
composition was mingled with the doors
arising from the unclean waters. A
chemical analysis of water taken from
above the mouth of the sewer, from the
sewer itself and from the stream below
it's mouth makes 1t perfectly plain that
the tendency of the discharge must
have been to befoul the river to a ma
terial degree and whether the impurlty
which was apparent at the city of rama
was attributed to this source was. as
we have already said, for the jury alone
to pass upon. Under all the evidence,
