Dixie, March "A case of alleged
inhunari treatment resulting in the
death of young man and subsequent
Developments has aroused considerable
indignation at Stout, village seven
miles north of here, near where the
affair took place. A few days ago
a young man whose. identity is not
known appeared in that. vicinity and
secured employment as a farm hand
on the farm of Claus De Vrise Friday
son Went to the town of Stout and the
farm hand became intoxicated. 1t is
not known whether the son had been
drinking, but the two had some mis-
understanding and when they arrived
home. it is stated. De Vrise turned the
hired hand out of tie house, he now
claims because of his intoxicated con-
dition. The young man was attired
only in his oyeralls, shirt and thin
pair of socks. The young man was drunk
and wandered to a buggy shed where
he fell asleep in n pool of water. The
next morning De Vrise noticed the man
lying in the shed and sent to Stout for
the constable to arrest him. When
the constable arrived, however, the
man was dead. De Vrise by this time
had evidently become alarmed and a
hurried consultation was held. No Of
fetal inquest was held. and after the
conference the body was carried to town
placed in a binder crate and taken
to the depot, where they asked Agent
Walker which be the cheapest way to
ship the corpse to Iowa City, by
freight or express. The agent re-
fused to ship the body until he had
physicians certificate as to the
cause OF death and the body properly
boxed for shipment. 1t is said this
morning that this was done and that
the remains have been sent TO Des
Moincs. presumably to a medical col
lege. Nothing can be learned as to the
young mans identity. The case has
excited a great deal of talk. The
treatment he was accorded by DE- Vrise
and the haste exhibited in trying to get
his remains out of the way has aroused
the Indignation of many and 1t is prob
able an investigation will be set on
foot

the men saw that they could not get
the best of Hickey they turned and ran
down the alley at the rear of the

Hickey was in an out house when he
heard noise in the barn and went to
investigate. Two men jumped out and
assaulted him When they left he made
his way into the barn and found that
the rope with which his COW had been

Special to Times Republican,.
Sac City, March 2.-The leading So
cial event of the season in this city was
the reception given at the high school
building on Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday evenings of last week, by the
teachers of the public schools. In the
three evenings about 900 patrons fthe
schools responded to invitations to be
present at the receptions, and as re-
suit of these gatherings the educational
sentiment of this community is much
stronger today than ever before.
One of the interesting features of the
entertainment was an exhibit Of over
1000 pieces of manual construct ton

GUILTY OF MANsLAuGHTER.
Verdict in the Finkeistein Murder Case
Story of the Crime.


Des Moines. March 2.-''We. TIE jury,
find John Walker guilty of manslaug'h-
ter
This was the verdict that the jury re-
turned in the Finkelstein murder case
TO Judge Given at 6:l5 p. m. yesterday,
after having been out since 3 O'Clock
Saturday afternoon, n total of twenty
seven hours. After each juror had been
asked it this was his verdict in the case.
the proper entries made and motions
entertained the court dismissed tho jury
for the term.
The crime for which Walker stands
convicted is the killing of Isaac Finkel-
stein, who for many years was one of
the leaders of the Hebrews on The east
side of the river and a prominent re-
publican politician. Finkelstein had
been on the police force, was interested
in the second hand furniture business
and owned some property in the east
side business district. He was muir
dered on the night of Aug. 5 last, at
about 10 p. M, while en- route to his
home on East Seventh street. The MUIR
derer stepped out of the mouth Of an al
ley as Finkelstein passed and struck
him over the head with a singletree
which had been removed from q wagon
belonging to Harris Levich and which
was standing in the rear of his store at
522 East Walnut street, less than a
block from the scene of the murder.
The police arrested Levich and Wall
ker for the murder within two hours of
the time of it's commission. Both were
subsequently indicted. The defendants
demanded separate trials and Levich
was tried first. On his trial mass of
testimony was brought in to show that
Levich, who is a professional bondsman,
and Finkelstein, had quarreled over the
giving of certain bonds by Finkelstein
for persons who had formerly been CHI
ents of Levich's. Testimony also went
to show that Finkelstein had been in
strumental in the prosecution of lewd
women who Were tenants of houses on
East Fourth street controlled by Levich
There was much evidence showing that
Levich had threatened to have Finkal-
stein done up and that he said that
Walker was the man who would do IT,
1t was also shown that Walker was
with Levich that night in front of Hy-
man Levichs cigar store at 420 East
Walnut street while Finkelstein was
visiting with a friend in a shoe shop
fifty feet further west. 1t was shown
that Walker left shortly before the
murder was committed, that he was
seen talking in a near by alley with a
white man and that he had departed in
the direction Finkelstein had taken.
There was testimony tending to estab-
lish AN alibi for both Levich and Wal
ker and other testimony to impeach and
discredit this defense. Levich was ac-

son sets the mystery at rest and all is
now accounted for but the origin of
the fire which was so fatal. Whether
or not that will ever be disclosed re-
mains to be learned.
The remains were taken to Orion this
evening and the funeral services will be
held at that place Sunday.
This makes the total number of vic
Tins of the fire number six, with sew
eral patients at hospitals yet in criti-
cal condition. The searching of the
ruins has now ceased and 1t is believed
that every person in the hotel on the
of the holocaust has been ac-
counted for. Arthur Johnson carried
with him an Orion paper in which ap-
peared the picture of his father. Mr.
Johnson was a man of fine physique
and the paper spoke very highly of him
as citizen.

Paul Revere's Watch.

The watch which expert antiquarians
declare to be the original umepiece
worn by Paul Revere. the patriot cou-
rier, on the night of his famous ride to
Lexington, is now in the possession OF a
Maiden man, who prizes it particularly
because of a latter-day romance in
which it had prominent part.
Mr.. Frederick Lincoln Crane, the
owner, is a musician, and the watch
stands to him as precious souvenir of
his fathers first meeting with his moth
er. Mrs. Susan Hooker Dwight Crane,
by whose decease the watch has now
come to him.
Paul Revere left this watch by his
Will to his son. Joseph Pevere, who in
turn passed 1t down to Colonel Freder-
lex w. Lincoln, of Canton. his nephew,
and the revolutionary scouts grandson.
Frederick w. Lincoln, the mayor of
Boston. was adopted by Colonel Lin
coin, and because of this, as we'll as
from the fact that he was the patriot
Paul's great-grandson, he would have
been the natural heir to The watch. But
Colonel Lincoln had in the present own
er's father, DR.. Phineas Miller Crane,
late of East Boston, friend as near
and dear to him as Damon was to
Pythias.
DR.. Crane was the son of Major Gen
eral Elijah Crane, who commanded the
troops in New England during the war
vi 1912.
DR.. Crane was often at his friends
home in Canton. and there one day he
met the young lady with whom he fell
in love, and whom he resolved to mar
ry. He had just been graduated from
Harvard College and the Harvard Med
ward Medical School, but soon he estab-
iished a practice, and in 1888 he per-
suaded Susan Dwight to share his home
and fortunes.
DIR. Crane had often admired the Paul
Revere watch, and his love for the
timepiece was shared by his bride. One
day in the course of a conversation he
let this fact drop to Colonel Lincoln.
proposing, half in jest, that he sell him
the watch to give his bride as we'd
ding present.
Colonel Lincoln was. Of course, not
in the least tempted by The money. and
he was naturally somewhat averse any
how to having the relic go to one not
of the Revere blood, but 1t seemed to
MIN Il SpleIlluu OPpoTluiHSS W PuS TIC
seal on a friendship that had meant
much to both men, as we'll as to Miss
Dwight. and he consented to part with
the watch.
From that time, 1893. says Boston
special in the New York Herald, till a.
year ago, when she passed away, Mrs.
Crane cherished this relic with tender
est love. On the slender chain, like a
neck chain, which came with
the watch. her husband had had her in
ltials engraved, and these are still dis
Rather :uriously, those
letters, S. H. c., are today the only
marks on the handsome relic.
There is not even makers name.
The number of the watch, which Is in
an eighteen carat gold case, Is 24,659.
and that it was we'll made is demon
strated by the fact that today, more
than 1875 years after the night it served
its owner on his famous ride, 1t keeps
good time.
