Moline, ILL.,, Nov. 2S.-Through
an error in ordering gasoline in place
of kerosene, an explosion occurred
last night in the house of David Ow-
ems, which resulted in the death of
Wilfred Owens, twelve years old, and
the serious burning of Mr.. and Mrs.
Owens. The house took fire from the
burning oil, and when the parents de-
scended the stairway with the boy,
who had been sleeping in room
above, the flames barred their way,
and before they could get to safety,
the child was badly burned, and his
parents were severely burned. They
we're taken to the city hospital, where
the boy died few hours later.

REPORT ON sHERIFF's OFFICE

REPORT ON SHERIFF'S OFFICE.
The following report was made on
the sheriff's Office by the committee.
We, the undersigned, your commit
tee appointed to investigate the con-
dition of the sheriff's Office of this
county, beg leave to report that we
have examined into the affairs of the
said Office and find that the duties
of the said Office have been and are
now being efficiently and faithfully
performed; we find that the sheriff
has been diligent in the collection Of
all monies due the county, from any
sour ce for which he should collect it,
and that he has paid the same over to
the proper county officers and holds
receipt for same. We further find
that apparently everything in connec-
ton with the Office is being conduced
in an entirely satisfactory and proper
manner.
We recommend that the board of
supervisors authorize the sheriff to
furnish prisoners with cheap suits of
clothes, underwear, ETC., upon their
coming to the Jail, reserving the
clothing which they have upon them
until their departure, and then de-
livering that clothing to them. We
think that this would result in saw
ing to the county, in as much as,
under the present system, the county
is frequently required to furnish de-
parting prisoners with clothes.
We find that the stove ia the Jail is
III very bad condition and recon-
mend that new stove be furnished
by the supervisors.
We further recommend that the
sheriff be furnished larger quantity
Of bedding for the convenience of

Where Frost Is Never "Out Of the

Vegetation.
Committee Doing Careful Work on
Its Agricultural Possibilities.
Estimate.
Special to The Journal.

opoSAoA
Everett, Wash, July 25.-A Dawson
correspondent says that the maIvels OF
Alaska and the Yukon are great surprises
to the distinguished senatorial commit
tee which has been sent north to study
a general scheme of co1onizing the great
district of Alaska From Seattle to Daw-
son the committee has travelled thru 1000
miles of wonderland, and has been greatly
pleased to find the summer climate Of
the coast and the Yukon similar and al
most identical with that of Puget sound,
and the verdure as luXuriant on the hills
and in the valleys of the north, as bright
and charming at this period as that Of
the evergreen state.
Senator Knute Nelson of Minnesota
found maze of Klondike peculiarities
to surprise him. He was greatly inter-
ested in the fact that miners have to
contend with permanent frost in mining
here the year round that one can. sink
three or four feet in summer and reach
the frost line, and that altho the shafts
have been sunk 22O feet or deeper in the
Yukon the limit of the depth Of frost never
has been reached. To see landscape as
verdant as that Of the evergreen state Of
Washington thru hundreds of miles, from
Skagway to Dawson, and to see veg
etables and other agricultural products
growing on the thin surface of soil above
the frozen ground as prolifcally as in his
great northern state, surprises the stanch
old statesman.
The probability of being called on to
advise the president as to his ideas Of
colonizing Alaska for farming is a sharp
| incentive to the committee to study the
agricultural possibilities in the Yukon
basin and on the Alaskan coast. The re-
sponsibilty which would rest on them in
this respect in the future should thou
sands of immigrants be induced to come
north, as intimated by President Roose-
velt might be desirable, means no slight
matter.

in town on Wednesday and will remain
here for three or four weeks. Mr.. Lyons
states that his company cut ID. 900, 900 feet
of logs last winter in the Turtle river
country. These logs have been foated
down the river and across Cass Lake to.
the company's hoist, located about two
miles east of the village on the east shore
Of Cass lake. At this point the company
hoists the logs onto the logging train and
they are taken to a point east of Grand
Rapids, spur road having been built
from the main line of the Eastern Min
nesota to the lake., At Grand Rapids the
logs are turned over to the Mississippi
Boom company and taken by that concern
to Minneapolis when they are taken In
charge by the Burlington company and
t1oated down the Mississippi river to Bur-
lngton, Iowa, where the company owns
large mills. This is a considerable dis
lance to take logs, but the pine trees in
the vicinity of Cass lake are the best to
be found in the country, and the timber
they contain Is in great demand. Dan
Seery of Eibbing, one Of the oldest log,
gers and lumbermen in northern Mime
sofa, has immediate charge Of the hoist
ing and shipping Of the logs. MIR. Lyons;
states that about s. 200, 900 of the logs have
already been hoisted and shipped and that
by another fortnight the remaining $780,
900 will have been taken care Of, which
will conclude the work Of the Burlington
In this vicinity until the cutting season
begins next winter.

AN EXPENSIVE INSTITUTION
Iowa's State Hospital to Cost Nearly Three
niIartare Of

Iowa's State Hospital to Cost Nearly Three
Quarters of Million.
DIES MONIES, IOWA-Another large
appropriation is asked for the Cherokee
state hospital at the hands of the next
general assembly, in the first biennial re-
port of the institution, whichc has been
filed with the board of control by SUI
perintendent Voldeng. He recommends
the expenditure of 800, much of which
is asked for odds and ends needed to COM
plete the hospital. OF the total, he recon-
mends $4,000 for new farm cottage,
$1,000 for an infirmary for both sexes and
$4,000 for furnishing it and $4,000 for a
fire department building. If the appro-
priation is made It will bring the cost Of
the hospital at Cherokee up to nearly
three quarters Of million dollars. Up to
the time Of the issue of the board of con-
trolls biennial report in 1901 there had
been expended in the erection of the hos
pital, in appropriations and receipts, $780,,
43S. The last general assembly appro-
priated $4,000 for the completion of the
hospital, 50 that the institution has al
| ready had nearly $780, 900.
One part of the report of Superintendent
| Voldeng relates to the inebriate section Of
the hospital This has been open since
| Oct. 10 Of last year. Up to June 80 Of
this year, there had been 1874 patients ad-
mitted. OF these but thirty-five were left
June 3d., There were 81 paroled, % es-
capped and over 80 were transferred to In
dependence. Superintendent Vodeng
recommends separate institution for in
| ebr1ates and advises that it made impos-
sible for an inebriate to get parole in
thirty days after commitment He says
the habit. of self control must be inculcated
and 1t is impossible to do this in thirty
days; therefore, the minimum time that
should elapse before a parole can be had,
he says, should be made longer than I'M
der the present law.
A new chapter has been added to the
brick and asphalt paving controversy here
by the action of the Des Moines Trades
and Labor assembly. It has endorsed a
resolution Of the Brickmakers' union, in
favor of brick paving and petitioning the
members of the council to do all possible
to have vitrified brick paving laid here. A
strong committee has been named by the
assembly to carry out the provisions of the
resolution. One of the reasons given why
brick paving should be supported is that
the brick industry here pays out 81, CSC, 900
a year in wages and that $500 people, or
about twelfth of the population of Des
MONIES, are supported by the brick yards.
The Scandinavian Relief commission

money went to Sweden, the balance being
evenly divided between Norway and Fin

would come too near to demonstrating
that Mrs. Bracket had exerted an undue
influence over him with respect to the
cause, or at least cast too grave suspi-
cion upon the integrity of the proceedings
to permit the result to stand. A corrupt
attempt to influence is always ground for
new trial without regard to the merits
Of the case and regardless of whether
successful or not. The law is so sens-

explained away, casting any suspicion of
misconduct on prevailing parties will void

The opinion was written by Judge Hol-

Chief Justice Brantly, in affxing his sig
nature, also wrote a para graph, saying he
had his doubts as to whether the matter
came within the purVieW of the statutes;
nevertheless, he wrote that he concurred
in the opinion as to the suspicion of mis-
conduct on the part Of the trial judge,
and he also concurred in the opinion as to
a number of paragraphs relating to the
merits of the case. !: The opinion created
a decided sensation, as HeinZe's ieuten-
ants have for so long and SO persistent
asserted that the decision would be favor
able to. him that 80 per cent of the people
were inclined to believe it was all over
but the shouting.
The supreme court also materially modi-
fed the standing order for survey in the
Nipper case, granted by Judge Clancy.
permitting HeirzeS to go into the Parrot
mine~of the ANA lgau1ated company. This
order issued by Judge Clancy was sweep
ing. Itzgives the Hefnze people permission
to use the maps and drawings of the Par
rott company It was the contention of
the defendant company that a subpoena
asking for maps was entirely too broad
Counsel for plaintiffs held that 1t was
discretionary with the court. That point
raised by the PARROT company was that
maps were private memoranda. made for
its own use in its Office This is the view
taken by the supreme court.
The Minnie Healy case will now be re-

what the result, an appeal will be taken
