Special to Times Republican,.
Webster City, Sept. 4.-Miss Lena
Krohn, a domestic in the A. A. Weaver
family, died suddenly last evening as
the result of a fainting spell to which
she was subject. There is no mystery

would remain in an unconscious con-

her that her sudden taking away dur
ing one of her spells could but be a
question of time.
Yesterday afternoon about two
o'clock Miss Krohn left her work in
Mrs. Weaver's kitchen and went up
stairs to her room. Nothing more
was heard from her until about four.
AT this time Mrs. Weaver happened to
go to her room and was Mortified to
find Miss Krohn lying prone upon the
bed in a limp condition. She at first
supposed it to be but fainting spell
but soon realized that death had en-

Hawarden. Sept. 4.--The drill being
operated on Mr.. Edlnunds' farm near

has pierced a light vein at depth of
200 feet, bringing up coal of good quail
ity
Some months ago a company was
formed to hunt for coal. and ID. Cam
eron, a mining man of some expert
ence. was given a contract to drill near
a point where a former company had
started work.
For some reason, never satisfactorily
explained. the old company was in
.duced to abandon its search. The new
company organized, placed its stock on
the market and lit is thought, has sue
ceeded.
The board of directors called a meet
ing Tuesday afternoon, and decided to
call in the stock which was placed on
the market. so that control OF the COM
pany and the benefits therefrom may
remain with the Hawarden promoters.
Cameron has been ordered to push
his work and it is thought that a heav
Ter vein will soon be located. In case
paying veins are located the coal will
certainly be mined
Discoveries of coal in this vicinity
have occurred at different times; and
once the veins are located, extensive
opera tons may be looked for.

Dubuque. Sept. 4.-Miss Bertha
Kyne, residing at 1854 White street,
narrowly escaped meeting death Tues
day afternoon. She lighted a gasoline
stove shortly after entering her home
after spending the afternoon with a
neighbor. When the stove was lighted
Miss Kyme went up stairs and upon
her return to the kitchen her waist
caught fire, as the result of coming too
close to the oil stove.
When the young woman realized the
predicament she was in she ran into
the street and sought shelter in Peter
b. Hoffman's grocery store. Vincent
Hoffman. son of the proprietor saw the
young woman enter the front door and
rushed to her assistance. He quenched
the flames with his bare hands.

the arms, neck and chest, but her ex-
perience will not result in anything
serious.

If Mrs. John Heaiy, was found at the
Healy residence last night by Mr.. and
Mrs. Healy when they returned home
after an absence Of an hour and half.
Mrs Gilfillen is still unconscious and
1t is feared by some that she may never
recover to tell the story of one of the
most frightful and cowardly crimes
committed in Ottumwa in several
years. However. her life is not de-
SPARED of by her physician, and there
are hopes that she may recover and be

man attacked her and beat her into In

Mrs. Gilfillen's home Is in Hannibal.

sister. Mrs. Healy. for the past three or
four months. Her former name was
Miss Helen Moore. and she was mar
ried to Harry Gilfillen, of Hannibal, a
conductor on the Hannibal & ST. Joe
railroad, but obtained divorce from
him several months since. About two
years ago she suffered stroke Of pa

since that time, altho her condition has

Mrs Gilfillen working in the Kitchen
was attracted by noice on the second
floor OF the house and went to investi-
gate, when she was attacked An cleo
trio switch controlling the lights in the
second story was turned on when Mr..
and Mrs. Healy arrived at home, and
1t is evident that as Mrs. Gilfillen went
up stairs she threw this switch, which
is near the foot of the stairs. It is sup
posed that she went up stairs and was
confronted by the intruder or intruders,
who. Mr.. Healy thinks, had gained an
entrance to the house and were ram
sacking it when the noise they made
reached Mrs. Citizens ears in the
kitchen below.
1t is evident that a struggle occurred,
as Mrs. Gilfillen's hands, arms and body
bear scratches and bruises. She was
rendered insensible by choking, and
when found the marks of fingers
could still be seen on her throat Her
hands We're not bound, so it seems that
she was insensible before the handker-
chief. which was arranged as a gag,
was tied about her face. Otherwise her
hands being free, she could, if con-
scious, have united the gag.
