| Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 6-Rev. Albert
Boynton Storms. ID. D., pastor of the
First M. T.. church in this city, must
make choice between presidency of
the great Iowa State College of Agri-
culture and Mechanic Arts and becom-
| ing bishop of the Methodist church.
| II he accepts the position rendered him
at Ames he must put aside what is
known to have been the ambition OF
his life and the more than probability
of his attaining that ambition. Dr.
Storms is only 43 years old. He has
already attained eminence as pulpit
orator. He is a tall, angular, rugged
man, with deep and smooth voice, a
man of massive brain and broad con-
ceptions and already his associates in
| the church have been grooming him
| for higher honors in the church. Among
them it has been a belief that he is
headed direct for a bishopric in his
church, and this fact would sooner or
| later become apparent. With knowl-
edge of this fact DR.. Storms hesitated
about allowing consideration of his
name in connection with the presidency
of the state college. The salary there
| is $4,000 a year. But DR.. Storms has
filled pulpits in Detroit, Madison and
Des Moines, in the best churches. 1t is
up to him" to decide whether it shall
be president or the probability Of some
day being bishop. whether he will
change the whole course OF his life
or go on to higher things. In view of
his unanimous choice as president of
the college, it is believed that DR..
Storms will accept.

The Fan In History.

. As in mirror, the fan, the origin OF
which is lost in the twilight of oriental
legend, reflects the habits, customs, art
and taste Of every country which has
made friend Of an article so useful
and ornamental. Greece was the first
European country to adopt the fan
two BIRDS wings-one of Its uses being
by acolytes In the temples to drive
away the flies from the sacrifice. 1t
served the early Christians in the cata-
combs a similar purpose when the
bread and wine were spread for the
sacrament, q custom which lasted in
the Roman Catholic church to the four
teenth century.
IN this same century the fan made
an almost simultaneous appearance
throughout Italy and France, In Eng
land and Spain. Its most artistic flights
have been achieved in France. but not
even to France will Spain yield in its
use of the fan as "an important weap-
on in the mimic warfare Of coquetry
and Irritation" Whether the Spanish

the must" to depend on anything else.
1t was this little word must that an
noyed the small group of stand patters
the day before the convention, and for
two hours they worked hard with the
governor and others who had commit
ted themselves to the new wording of
the platform to have the word ..must"
changed to Should" or ought" or
some form that would take the life out
of it. Governor Cummins refused to
recede, and insisted that the word
would have to remain.
Leaders Kept Posted.
Governor Cummins would be the last
man to deny the great credit of all con-
cerned in the making of the platform or
to take unto himself all responsibility
for 1t; but this much is certain that at
no time did Governor Cummins or Sem
ator Allison disagree on any essential
OF the tariff and reciprocity planks,
nor did they find themselves at var
lance with Mr.. Perkins and Mr. Blythe
who had their part liz effecting perfect
agreement. Neither did the governor
take action without consulting with his
more intimate friends and supporters
and among others who were informed
from time to time of the progress OF
platform preparation there was IL. w.
Byers, A. b. Funk, d. w. Norris, Jr.,
Willard Eaton and others. On the
platform committee as finally made up
there was Mr. Blythe. already commit
ted fully TO the governors position:
Captain Merry. who was IN accord with
the wishes of his friend, Senator Alli-
son: Senator Trewin, already commit
ted to the tariff plank as prepared; E.
d. Chassen, and Judge E. Z. Nichols,
both in the confidence of the governor
and the committee was not one which
the governors opponents controlled in
any sense, but committee overwhelm-
ingly committed to the new"Iowa idea
platform. Every sentiment and almost
every sentence of the platform may be
found entire in the speeches of Gov
ernor Cummins What is not found
there is in the national platform of the
party. A careful analysis of the plat
form will show that it is not only the
sentiment of the governor, but his man
ner Of expression. He believes today
that the platform mere nearly conforms
to all that he has said. more nearly
his entire contention in poll
ties. is stronger, clearer and better IN
every way, than the platform OF the
past two years in Iowa, and standing
upon it, he says that he VIII
continue to advocate the same primer
Piles as in the past. and with 1t as a text
he will continue to make the ldentlcal
a rp,,r1oents he has made in scores OF
speeches in this state and elsewhere.

by Shooting
INSANE JEALOUSY THE CAUSE

His Earnings for Drink-story Of
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Lands in
River at OdeI.

Atlantic. July Ga double tragedy
In the death of Patrick Maher and his
wife. Maher shot his wife and then
turned the revolver on himself. Both
died Sunday.
Maher and his family recently moved
here from Council Bluffs, where they
had been only short time Maher has
been a section man with the Rock Is
land and has spent the greater part of
his earnings for liquor, while his wife
has supported the family by working
for the restaurants about town and
doing other work that she could find
to do. Saturday she had worked all
day at one of the restaurants in town
out and laid down on the bed for a
much needed rest. Maher, 1t is said.
has always been insanely jealous OF
his wife, but without the slightes,
cause.
Saturday night he returned home
soon after his wife, but it is supposed
she had fallen asleep. There is at
this time no knowing just how the
tragedy occurred, but it is supposed he
went up to her as she lay on the bed
resting, placed the revolver to the
right side of her head and fired. Fear
ing this shot would not prove fatal,
he took another chance. this time aim
ing the gun directly at the center of
the forehead. The first ball lodged in
the left side of the head after passing
thru the brain. The second was some
what effected in it's course and passed
out at the right side of the skull. Either
shot, 1t is thought, would have proved
fatal.
After shooting his wife and making
sure that his purpose had been accom-
plished, Maher ran into the yard in
front of the house, placed the gun to
his left breast and fired. The ball en-
tered his body slightly above and to
the left of the heart, and lodged some
where in the back part of his body.
The sounds of the shots soon attracted
q crowd and tho nan was found in the
yard, as 49,! : .i,;..cI, urto..seious and
apparently dying. The wife was found
on the bed in the house. apparently
dead. Physicians We're hastily SOM
moned.
Mr.. and Mrs. Maher had six children,
two grown daughters and four sons, be-
tween the ages OF 13 and 10. who live
here. The daughters are Mrs. Ed Lett
Of Missouri Valley, and Miss Teresa
Maher OF Council Bluffs, who has been
working in millinery store there and
staying at 229 Ninth avenue.

about 6 o'clock and continued until
about $3.50 apparently increasing until
it amounted to cloud burst. Fully six
inches of water fell during the time.
At the mouth of one of the gulches on
the west side where 1t crosses Second

out and the water poured over the
street at a depth of two feet. AT this
time Mr. +. A. Thorndike, one of the

Very Old Church.

The Church Of San Miguel, at Santa
Fe. is claimed by New Mcxicans to be
the oldest in the United States. There
is much dispute over the exact date of
its erection. but it was certainly built
between 200 and 800 years ago by the
first Indian converts under the direc-
ton of the Spanish padres-some say
as long ago as 1915. Inside it is like q
vault, black and crumbling,. with,
cracked adobe walls and roof. and y
gallery whose woodwork still shows
traces of the figures painted there by
the Indians, designs like those they pu.
upon their pottery today.
But the most interesting thing in Sar
Miguel is the old bell. st. Joseph.
Black with age. it looks like a mass of
old iron in its dim recesses. But strike
it, and it gives forth mellow note OF
silvery clearness. echoing with marvel
GUS sweetness through the vaultlike
old church. The quality of the bell
metal makes the richness of the note.
and there is a tradition that 1T was
made of the gold and silver ornaments
of the Spanish as thank offering for
victory over the Moors.
At any rate, the old Spanish padres
brought the bell, already ancient,
across the seas from Spain and over
mountains and plateaus from Mexico.
The Moors are gone. Spain's great en-
pire of the west has vanished, and still
the old bell stands there, older than
American civilization.
