FU|I[RA GOOD WITNESS
Milwaukee Conductor Heard Kos
kuba Threaten to Take Vim.
Brands Lie.
Is Subpoenaed at Perry Late
Thursday Afternoon - Kos
kuba Was Drunk.
People of Ferguson N eighborhood
Appear to Be Glad OF Arrest
Feared Him.

The state of Iowa, in its case against
Joseph koskuba. of Ferguson, on a
charge of assault with intent to COM
nit murder upon q neighbor, William
Brand, has an excellent witness, it
I: is thought, in the person of Conductor
A. j. Fuller, of the Milwaukee, who,
while in charge of some switching to
his train. second 63. near Ferguson
Wednesday night, it is alleged, over
heard koslluba threaten to Kill William
Brand. Fuller also heard the shots
nred and reported the trouble to the
agent at Ferguson, who, in turn, notl-
fed Constable Gaunt who arrested
koskuba.
Deputy Sheriff Hutson went to Perry
Thursday afternoon and served Fuller
with subpoena to appear i'll this city
next Monday morning, the date set for
Koskuba's preliminary hearing. An
other good witness for the state Will be
John Jisicek, Bohemian living near
Ferguson who, it is claimed, restrained
Koskuba from firing a third shot at
braIlU. hOSkuDi Is aieSSu W ltts Z
fired both barrels of his shotgun at
Brand, and was in the act of loading
again when Jisicek held his arm and
prevented him from shooting again.
Jisicek has also been subppnaed as a
witness at the preliminary hearing.
koskuba Was Drunk.
Koskuba was undoubtedly under the
influence of liquor when the trouble oc-
CURED, and he says himself, to Sheriff
Shoemaker, that he had been imbibing
very freely in this city "Wednesday
afternoon. Koskuba says he drank a
lint Of whisky and thirteen glasses of
beer before leaving for home, and took
with him pint of whisky, which he
killed on the way. If this is true there
IS but little wonder that the man was
in good fighting trim and was anxious
to have trouble with almost any one,
provocation or no.
Ferguson People Happy.
Reports from Ferguson go to show
that the people OF that neighborhood
are happy that for a time, at least. they
are ridden of Koskuba, who. they claim
is very ugly when drunk, and is feared
4 great deal by many who know him
and his ways. People who know both
men claim that Brand is a peaceable
sort of fellow, who would not pick a
quarrel with any one, and that he
would not provoke koskuba into a
fight. The Ferguson neighborhood has
been thoroughly worked up over the
trouble, and it is the wonder of all that
Brand is not now a corpse and that
Marshall county has not another muir
der case on her hands.

OF the cotton grown in China remains
in the east. and no one in the west
knows how many bales are really
produced annually in the depths of
that populous country. English CAPT
tai is endeavoring by means of the

Egyptian crop, and altogether it is
possible that very soon as much cot

these more favorable skies But even
such result is not to be dreaded,
for the world takes all the lint that

LEO CLOSE TO YEARS OF PETER.

From the Tablet
The pope on Tuesday, November L. had
occupied the chair of st. Peter longer
than any Of his predecessors except Plus
TX. 1t is a singular fact, cited by some
as a testimony TO the increased healthi-
ness of Rome, that the two longest reigns
recorded in the annals of the papacy
should have been the two last-that of
Plus TX, whose pontificate lasted for
thirty-one years and seven months. and
that Of Leo XIII, who has worn the triple
crown for twenty-four years and eight
months and more than a fortnight. Until
November he had attained the years OF
Plus vi, who died in exile at Valence in
1890. The tradition that ST. Peter had
been bishop of Rome for twenty-five
years was the Origin of the saying adj
dressed to succeeding popes on their ac-
cession: Thou shalt not see the years of
Peter" prediction falsihed for the first
time by the late reign and likely to be so
in the present case. The reigning pontiff,
despite his great age, has been surpassed
in longevity by two of his predecessors
st. Agathon, who died in $50 at the age of
1O7. and Gregory TX, who at the date of
his death in 1A1, had attained the age
of 80

WILL 1T BE DORMANT

From the Bessemer Workman.
The democratic national convention
will not be held for eighteen months
vet the question of nominee is being
considered seriously. Many think it will
be Hill, others say German, while ma
jority think the man for the place is yet
unknown. We believe the latter position
nearer right than either of the others,
but here In the south the sentiment in
favor of German or Hill is very strong.
Some sections are solidly for Hill. others
Just as unanimously for German. AS be-
tween the two men named the south
should select German, for he is near
kin, is more In sympathy with us, and
would give the south recognition the
other would not.
Hill says II am democrat" but Cor
man has shown his democracy. He lives
his democracy and stands by his rarity
at any and all times. He is politician.
believes in political organized party poll
tics and will fight to the end. German
has always stood by the south. and
when there was danger of the DOM
inant party forcing the odious force
bill upon US. the man who did more
than any other to defeat the measure
was Arthur p German of Maryland. We
think it best to take some new man.
but If that is not practical, let the south
holidly support German.
