Arrested for Adultery.

On Tuesday last, at the instance
of the City police authorities,
William E. Bowman, known here as
a dancing master, was arrested upon
information filed by w. II. Roth
well, city attorney, on the charge
of living in open adultery with a
certain white woman of Columbia
and a%rraigned before Judge Gerig
of the Police Court. He plead not
guilty. The Judge granted him
until ? O'Clock p. M, to leave town,
but he preferred to remain and
stand his trial. He was then re-
CURED to give bond in the sum of
$Ioo, and instead of it deposited
that amount of money with the
Court and was discharged until
next Monday at 10 o'clock a. M,
when his preliminary trial will be
held.
On Wednesday forenoon, Mrs.
Efie NJ. Henley was notified, at
her place of business on Broadway,
by L. ]. Slate, chief of police, to
appear before Police Judge Gerig
at 2:3o that afternoon to answer to
the same charge for which Bowman
had been arrested. She tailed to
appear, whereupon Policeman
Rothwell served the warrant for
her arrest, after which M. r..
Conley, her attorney, appeared be-
fore the Police Judge, waived
formal arraignment and entered a
plea of not guilty. A bond in the
sum of 500 was fixed guaran-
teeing her appearance at 10 a. m.
next Monday.

Of the Western Enterprise would
be an excellent selection"
The Western Enterprise, the
leading colored paper of this sec
ton, heartily endorses the position
taken by the Missouri politici ans.
Mr.. Jackson was formerly editor
of that paper and is one Of the best
known colored residents of the
Rocky Mountain region. However,
it is doubtful if he would accept the
appointment if rendered to him, as
he might not be able to stand the
climate of South Africa. In speak
ing of the matter the Enterprise
has this to say editorially:
professor Jackson's ability fits
him for any position the President
may deem wise to appoint him.
is both a scholar and a gentle
man. But the climate of South
Africa would be detrimental to
Professor Jackson's health"

Expect to Be gin in March.

w. A. Cauthorn, engineer fof
the proposed electric railroad
through this county and on to
Cuivre Junction, was here Sunday.
He has headquarters at Glasgow,
and is working with an office force
to complete the profile and maps
needed to build the road. 1t is the
belief of Mr.. Cauthorn that the
road will be in operation during
the present year, and he says the
work of construction is expected to
begin as early as March /, or not
later than April 1, if the stock is
taken up. Boone county has not
yet taken her part of the stock
though some of the counties have
completed their subscriptions.
Boone is farther behind in this
matter than any of them. We
hope our capitalists, business men
and farmers will show proper in
terest in the road.

From the Colorado Springs
Evening Telegraph:

From the Colorado Springs
Evening Telegraph:
The name of j. H. jackson, of
this city, has been prominently
mentioned for the position made
vacant by the recall of DR.. Cross
land as minister to Liberia. DR..
Grassland is a Missourian and the
colored politicians of that state have
already suggested the name of Mr..
Jackson. The Professional World
published at Columbia, Mo-, has
this to say of DR.. Crossland's suc-
cessor in a recent issue:
"As to Crossland's successor, it
is not very probable that his sue
cessor will be named from Missouri.
Nor would it give satisfaction to
those Interested in politics for the
President to make another selection
from Missouri. Just at this time,
owing to the factional strife which
exists among the Missouri political
workers and party leaders, as it is
not at all probable that any man in
Missouri could be named whose
appointment would meet the ap-
proval Of all factions. 1t would
probably be well for the President
to select some western editor. For
instance, Editor j. H. Jackson Of

1t is gratifying to note that the
Missouri Legislature is at least be-
ing made cognizant of the fact,
that the most needful thing at
Lincoln Institute is a Board Re-
gents. That Missouri has always
made liberal appropriations for the
support and maintenance of this
institution nc one will deny. But
have these moneys been wisely and
judiciously spenti What reason
can be given for the employment
Of an ordinary blacksmith as super
intendent of the industrial school
at a salary of $1,000 per yearf Or
what reason can be given for the
employment of four white men to
do the janitor work at that lnstitu-
ton. Large appropriations are
made each year for the support and
maintenance of the Industrial
School at Lincoln Institute which
has been in operation ten years and
has never produced a practical
mechanic.

ROOSEvRLT's BILLS TO CURB TRUSTS.

Washington, January 9.-Two
bills embodying the administra-
TONS views of the best methods
of curbing trusts have been drawn
by Attorney General Knox and
introduced in the house by Repre-
sentative Jenkins. One bill would
amend the Sherman antitrust law
by making it an offense punishable
by $4,000 fine to offer, grant,
solicit OF receive any freight rebate
on the published tariffs. Proceed
ings are to be had in the federal
circuit court.
The second bill urges the appoint
ment of a commission to specifical-
ly see that the law is enforced. The
number of commissioners and their
salaries are not fixed in the bill.
The bill would give the new COM
mission powers similar to those of
the interstate commerce commits
sion, but far greater in scope. For
instance, this commission is to in
vestigate great corporations, and
refusal of any m to testify is
penalized by a fine of $500 and inn
prisonment for one year.

WEBB FOOTED PEOPLE GET A LARGE
FORTUNE.

Joplin, Mo-, January I7.-Three
heirs to the estate of William
Bowers, who recently died in
Yonkers, N. Y, resides in Jasper
county and have received their
share of the estate SO far as a settle
ment has been made. Much
interest is attached to the story of
how the claimants in the estate
established relationship by a family
Characteristic, hat of webbed feet.
In all there are FIVE to claim the half
million dollars fortune, which has
been only partly distributed.
Those residing in Jasper county
are Messrs. John and Sidney
Bowers and Miss Julia Bowers,
who r grandchildren of the
eccentric old man.
Upon the receipt of a belated
announcement of their grandfather's
death the two grandsons of this
county Immediately left for the
Feast to assist in settling up the
estate and came back with their
shares Of the estate as well as that
of their sister.
John Bowers has established
his relationship and claimed a share
of the big estate from the fact that
his feet r webbed, a deformity
said to be characteristic of the
Bowers family.
The litigation started when in
March, 1901, a policeman picked
up the aged and eccentric miser,
William Bowers, on the streets of
9onkers. Bowers was suspected of
being intoxicated, but the officers
found that he was the victim of
epileptic fits. He had lived in a
squalid cellar for thirteen years,
and when found by the policeman
was almost starved. At the hospital
later it was found, however, that he
was not so poor as he appeared
to be. About $4,000 in paper
money was found sewed in the
lining Of his coat, and when he died
a few days later a search in the
cellar revealed property deeds
aggregating at least $25o,ooo and
bank notes showing at least that
much more. Man claimants APP
peared on the instant. The dead
mar had a friend named Garfield,
who remembered that he had talked
about his folks in Missouri. He
communicated with the authorities
and the result was that John
Bowers went to Yonkers to estab-
lish his claim to the fortune.
When they arrived the body had
been inferred for several months.
The grave was opened by per-
mission and the old man was
recognized, although his relatives
had not seen him for nearly half a
century. Those at the grave were
struck by the resemblance, but the
main marks of Identification were
revealed when the toes of the
corpse we're examined. They were
found webbed together like a
ducks toes, the second, third and
fourth toes being joined together.
John then removed his stockings
and showed the same characteristic.
He said that his fathers toes were
webbed identically in the same nan
ner, as were also his sisters.
