And after it was all oyer-when the

wher. only the white steam smoke
rolled up through the yawning roof

Des Moines, April 13.-Professor

distinctive Fear In Birds.

The instructive fear of death mani
tested by birds is shown by the follow
ing: A canary died, was buried, the
nesting place broken up, the surviving
mate removed to new cage and the
old cage thoroughly cleaned and put
aside till the following spring. Never,
however, could any bird afterward en-
dure being placed in that cage. They
fought and struggled to get out, and il
all in vain their efforts they moped,
budding close together, thoroughly I'M
happy, refusing to be comforted by any
amount of sunshine, companionship or
dainty food. The experiment was tried
with foreign birds that had not been in
the house when the death occurred and
could not therefore have known of the
event by observation. But the result
was always the same. For the future
that cage was haunted.-Popular Sci

The fullness of sleeves is kept mostly

Outdoor garments depend very much

With Above Decision Resulting.
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, April 13.---The Iowa SUI
preme court has officially Endorsed
common law arbitration in Iowa and
set it's seal of approval on settlement
of disputes without going into the
courts of the state. The question
came up in an insurance case from
Monona county. Mitchell! Vincent had
property burned on which there was
insurance. There was written agree
ment to submit the question of loss to
arbitators, one chosen by himself and
the other by the Insurance. company.
and an umpire was also named. The
two arbitrator signed decision as ar
bitrators. The amount allowed on the
loss was not all that Vincent expected
and he chose to go into court and sue
on the policy. The case was tried and
I. verdict given for Vincent greater than
the arbitrator had given. On appeal
the supreme court declares that while
the case was properly tried and the
Judgment probably was not more than
deserved, yet the lower court erred in
considering the case at all after this ar
bitration. 1t is true the agreement for
arbitration did not follow that laid
down in the contract nor had 1T amy
statutory standing, but it was essen
tally common law agreement as to
submitting the whole matter to arbi-
tration, and as such should hav,s been
sustained. The plaintiff had no right,
after having agreed to the arbitration,
to so into court merely because he was
dissatisfied with the award. The SUI
preme court takes occasion to state that
thsl courts IN this state would encour-
age rather than discourage resort to
arbitration boards. The case is re-
versed on this ground alone.

NEW TRIAL DENIED HooT.
Supreme Court Decides He Must Serve
His Sentence.


Dies Moines, April 13.-Among the
forty opinions handed down by the SUI
preme court Saturday in closing the
adjourned session Of the January term
was decision In the cage of the State
of Iowa. appellee. VS.. Jeroma w. Hoot,
appellant. This Is the noted case, APP
pealed from the court of Judge A. S.
Blair of Blackhawk county, in which
the defendant was accused of the crime
of assault with infant to commit muir
der in sending AN internal machine to
his wife, Mrs. Nettie Hoot. The trial.
court convicted him, and he was sem
fenced to term of ten years in the
penit:mtiary at Anamosa. BY the de-
cisioH of the supreme court the findings
Of the lower court are affirmed and
Eoot will have to serve his sentence.
The case was unique in tha criminal
annals of the state, and excited much
comment at the time. The details of IL
ere still fresh, and 1t will be recalled
that on Oct IS, 1899, Hoot sent an sx-
press package. addressed to himself in
Waterloo. This was In his absence de-
livered to his wife. She was accustomed
tc open mail and packages to him, and
she followed the usual custom when
the package arrived. On opening the
package, Mrs. Hoot found a polished
box in which appeared small draw
er Mrs. Hoot pulled this partly open.
and was startled by an explosion,
which, however, was not sufficiently So
we're to injure her. Later an officer
took the box and threw i on a pile of
rocks in the river bed. An explosion of
terrific force followed, and rock and
debric of all sorts were thrown In every
direction.
The opinion of the court is written
by Chief Justice Bishop. No errors are
found in the instructions of the trial
court This attorneys for the defense
made much of the unauthorized OPEN
ing of the box by Mrs. Hoot, as it was
mot addressed to her, but the court says
an unauthorized opening of the box, IL
such was intended, would support the
the same as an authorized
opening. The opinion takes up in de-
tail number of alleged errors in the
instructions by the lower court, and
disposes of them effectEally.

CASTERS STYLES.
Some of the Notable Points of the
Great Festival Display.

Straw of every condition and color,
including most delightfully."- delicate
tones, is prominent in millinery. Flow
err garniture includes nearly every
known species of blossom. while III
fruit trimmings some very lifelike pink
and white cherries have been added to
the list, in which grapes Of all the es-
tablished shades flourish. The tendency
to small toques nevertheless leaves the
large picturesque hats untouched. as is
shown by the two Easter specimens
here sketched.
One Is a huge triangular shaped hat
yelled with polar blue silk muslin and
slightly creased under punches of small
shaded flowers. red and violet, with a
graduated lace founce hanging all
round. The other is young ladys
hat in fancy lime green straw, trimmed
with muslin kerchief, embroidered
at the edges and arranged in soft folds
to fall at the back in waterfall and a
twist of green ribbon with loops on
either side.
Many of the gowns of the day have
tassels or falling ends somewhere and
rows of fringes adorn some of the
skirts
The new aspect Of the blouse is Of
Importance. The exaggerated pouch
in front has nearly disappeared in ia
yor of just becoming fullness that
fits well into that new feature, the high
shaped directoire belt This belt in
stead of cutting the figure abruptly in
two after the old fashion emphasizes
its graceful curves. and. with deep
buckle IN front. gives trim look to the
lower part of the body and waist.
With the new waist arrangement the
low cut, straight fronted corset is a
necessity, and correct lines" are as
much as ever the key to good style.
The clever adaptation of eoliennes,
silk veilings and crepe de chine to ev-
cry sort of dress from reception to tai
lor strikes the observer. With these
fabrics braiding and strappings of tat
feta are used to achieve tailor made
effect
Bolero shapes rule in corsages,
though with SO much variation that
the original motif is not always very
clear. Short, plated basques are likely
to be used in Grape and other soft fab
RIGS.
There is striking variety In skirts.
