Leon Veterans Are Asked to Cash
in at Once.

Leon and Decatur county veterans of
the civil war, their widows and depend.
ents who are now drawing pensions, are
earnestly requested to cash their checks
at once in order that. the outgoing PEN
sion agent at Des Moines may make a
settlement with the new appointee. No.
tice to this effect which it is desired be
extensively circulated follows:
At the present time there is over
S38, 600 in outstanding checks that have
been drawn by E. +. Sperry as pension
agent at Des Moines and sent to pen
sioners who have failed to get the sam e

agency, to take effect January 1, it is de.
sirable that all these checks be sent in

be more easily adjusted at the end of the
present year.

Subsidiary Corporation.

The Burlington road is preparing to
merge the Keokuk & Western road, ex.
tending from Des Moines to Keokuk via
Van Vert and Centervile and from Van

For two years the Keokuk & Western

it, there has been no formal merger. 1t
is proposed now to make the property
over in its entirety.

WEATHER IN DECEMBER
Hicks Weather Predictions for the
Balance of This Month.

In all reasonable probability, wide
and general cold wave will spread over
the country from about the 9th to the
18th.
A regular storm period is central on
the 18th, covering the 18th to the 18th.
The disturbances of this period will
reach crisis within forty-eight hours Of
the time of fnll moon on the 18th, nat
urally after rather than before that
hour. During this period many very
decided winter storms will visit the
north Atlantic ocean, making naviga-
ton perilous and unpleasant. In fact,
long and severe spell of boreal storms
and storminess, especially on the seas
and along northern coasts, will set in
about this time and continue well
through the remainder of the month.
Very decided billiards. in the north and
west will be very natural on and about
the 18th and 18th. Behind these storms
look for very high barometer with
severe winter gales from the northwest,
and cold wave that will be felt in vary.
ing degrees to the southern coasts.
All through this part of the month
continued tendency to winter storms
will prevail, but marked return to
storm conditions, with general rain and
snow may be expected about the 10Th
to 2lst. On the 2lst these reactionary
storms will eliminate in possible winter
thunder, wind and rain, especially to
the south, but it will be wise to look for
sudden change to snow, sleet and
freezing, as the center of the low barom-
eter works well to the east. Remember
that all these phases of storm and
change follow close on the heels of each
other, all moving from west to east, and
no part of the varying disturbances can
surprise you. The warmer, "beautiful
days" just before the rain and snow will
put you on the watch for the cold wave
behind them.
The last storm period for December
and the year 1902 is central on Christ.
mas day, the 25th. Storms of this
period may have developed in western
sections by the 25th, but central and
eastern parts Of the country will most
likely have fair and moderate weather
Christmas day. From about Friday the
26th to Monday the Goth, rain and snow
will advance eastward quite across the
country, leaving very cold weather be.

SAYS HE is INSANE.
Temple Says Clark's Acquittal
Mas Just,

M. L. Temple, of Osceola, who assisted
in the prosecution of w. H. Clark for
the murder of DR.. w. D. Duff, is firmly
convinced the state will have to take
charge of Clark and that he will be
hopelessly insane before three years.
"The defense made one mistake"
said Mr.. Temple in speaking of the
case afterwards. "They should have
pleaded insanity of permanent nature
and not emotional insanity. | take
very little stock in this notion that men
become insane in a moment and then
get over it. They may display ungov-
ernable temper, but it is wrong to Call it
insanity. But in the Clark case firmly
believe that he is insane in fact. was
employed TO prosecute him, but now
that it is over say his acquittal was
just. And his insanity was not because
OF resentment ut supposed wrongs com
mittcd by DR.. Duff against Cark's wife,
as generally supposed. Duff had treated
Clark when he had severe case of grip
some years ago. That grip left him
mentally and physically ruined. He
suffered from the hallucinaton that DR..
Duff had given him medicine TO unman
him and destroy his happiness In life.
He had harbored that resentment a long
time. do not believe that DR.. Duff
planned to elope with Mrs. Clark, but
he was good man and meant no harm
to the man who killed him III cold
blood. But the case was a mos, inter
esting study in insanity and illustrated
the danger of permitting those who
have hallucinations to continue at large.
Clark will be in the insane hospital or
in his grave in three years time ),

No Mystery About it.

The editor of the Pulaski Independ-
ent wrote to department stores in
Chicago and obtained their catalogues
from which he learned that they would
sell 100 pounds of the best graduated
sugar for $5.36. The freight amounted
to 26 cents and money order and stamp
10 cents, making the total cost 1914.
Then he went around among home mer.
chants and found they were selling 100
pounds of better grade of sugar at
from $3.50 to $500. Thereupon he in.
duires: "Why do people purchase their
commodities from the department stores?
The question" he regretfully adds, sis
more than we can answer when we ston
to think that household necessities can
be bought here cheaper than in Chi.
cago."
The editor of the Pulaski paper seems
to think that he has run up against an
impenetrable mystery, one of those
things that never has been and probably
never will be explained. In point of
fact, however, the explanation is very
simple and near at hand. The Chicago
department stores advertise that thew
will sell 100 pounds best granulated
sugar for $5.36. The Pulaski merchants
do not. The same is true as regards
other commodities. There is that differ.
ence and it accounts for the diversion of
patronage from home merchants to
those in the large cities. tis advertis-
ing that sells household necessities and
other goods for the department stores
in Chicago and elsewhere at an advanc-
ed price. The editor of the Independ.
ent ought to have been able to learn the
price of sugar in Pulaski stores from the
columns of his newspaper. Instead of
that he had to go in person to the stores
of local merchants and make INQUIRY in
order to find out what inducements they
were offering in that line. Possibly
some Of those same merchants are also
wondering why people send away to the
cities for goods when they could buy
them cheaper at home. If so they
should welcome the delicate hint these
lines are intended to convey. Let them
advertise to sell 100 pounds of best gran
ulated sugar at 81. 50 to $500, as compar-
ed with the Chicago department. store
price Of $5.74, and there will be no fur
ther cause for complaint about people
sending away from home for that nor.
ticular commodity-Gate City.

CR0FF0RD AFRIDAVITS,
More Developments in Regard to

While in town few days ago, DR..

ary for the murder of Maude Stone, an
inmate of his sanitarium, rounded UP
Alfred Burrell, James Bass, Riley Hull.
inger and Ed Burnison and secured from
them affidavits to the effect that they
had heard r. j. Harmon, who was fore.
man of the jury that, from the evidence
found Crofford guilty, prior to the trial
express himself as follows:
81 believe Doc Crofford is guilty and
he should be hung or sent to the rem
|itentiary"
Armed with the oregoing sndhvits
CroHord's attorneys appeared before
Judge Towner and filed mption that
the verdict of the jury be set aside,
making allegations against Mr.. Harmon
in accord with the aftidavits. y
Since last week we have again inter-
viewed Mr.. Harmon who says:
sit is possible that did express N.Y.
opinion of the case in words similar to
those am charged with in the atfidavits
Crofford secured, but if so it was AFTER
the trial. Of one thing am absolutely
positive: Even though may have used
some such language after the case was
ended never said he ought to be hung,
for L. DON'T BELIEVE IN HANGING ANY
BODY"
Ed Burnison, one of the signers of the
aftidavits, says:
"Croford came to me, sent by Alfred
Burrell, who, Croford said, had told
him 1 was present at the time Harmon
made such a talk. He (Croford) took
me down to the hotel where he had the
balance of the boys and read the affi.
davit to us but he didn't read it the
same, or at least didn't understand it.
as they claim it is now."
Alfred Burrell, another of the sipners.
interviewed, said:
'Harmon made the remark when T
was back here on lay-of. 1 was work.
ing on the rail road at the time and was
home on lay.off. l don't know what
date it was but can tell by looking it
up"
Prosecuting Attorney Olsen was here
Monday looking into fhe matter and,
we are told, secured impeachment
atfidavits. What in the name Of all
that is holy he wanted with them we
are utterly unable to comprehend if
Bass and Hulinger occupy the same
position in the matter that Burrell and
Burnison do.
At the present writing, from what we
have learned, we do not believe any one
of the quartette of affidavit makers did
any false swearing and parad oxical as it
may seem, neither do we believe Har.
mon expressed himself in any such
manner before the trial.
tisn't reasonable to believe that anv
man-man, we say-would perjure him
self to gain the opportunity of serving
on jury and sentencing fellow being
to penal servitude for life. And Mr..
Harmon, in our estimation, is man.
