STRANGERS TOOK $500.
Farmer Baker Near Brooklyn Swim
died Out Of Bunch of Cash.

Grinnell, June ia farmer named
Baker, living near Brooklyn, was
mulcted of $500 by two strangers
who interested him in the purchase
of the farm of neighbor. The two
men hired a livery team at Fishers
livery stable in this city. They drove
at once to Brooklyn where they sep
arated, one who had called upon
Baker several weeks ago, going to his
place. He had before consulted Baker
concerning the purchase of the farm
several weeks ago. In some way
Baker was promised a large sum in
case the deal was completed, as the
sale was to be at a ridiculously low
price. In order to complete the deal
at once it was represented by the
stranger that the deal must be spot
cash, and 1t was necessary for Baker
10 put in 1900. Each party counted
out 81 800 which was placed in a tin
box and the two started out to buy
the farm They met the second man
in the bunco deal, who wanted to
hire a team to take him TO the sta
ton to make an incoming train. The
stranger who was with Baker. handed
him the tin box and started TO the
station with his pal. promising TO re-
turn at once He did not return and
the box was found empty. A trail was
started after the fellows and the team
was found at Vining. Tama, county,
where IL was left. No trace of the
men has been discovered.

STRIKERS LEAVE

Leading HosteIries of City Are
Badly Crippled By Walk
out of Employees.
LONG FIGHT is LOOKED FOR
Walters Reject All Offers of Arbitra-
ton, Declaring that Their Scale of
Wages, as Presented, Must First
Be Granted.

Chicago, June 13.-The strike in the
hotels of Chicago. impending for the
last three weeks, materialized yester.
day, and twenty-five of the leading
hotels of Chicago are tonight badly
crippled in all departments. All of
the hotels are running, however, and
proprietors declare that the estab-
ishments will remain open for BUSH
ness at any cost.
The complete list of hotels in which
the employees have left. follows:

erhoff, Thompson, Victoria, yelling
ton, Lakota, Chicago Beach, Del Pra-

The strike promises to be a hard
ought one. The hotel proprietors de-
clare that the demands made by the
men are unreasonable, and the union
claims to have not been fairly treated
by the proprietors, in that the latter
nave refused to treat as individuals
With the unions.
The proprietors have agreed to
submit nearly every point at issue to
arbitration, but this the unions will
GOT consent to. They insist that their
demands for higher wages and shorter
hours be granted before they will ar
pirate anything. and insist also upon
the absolute recognition of the union.
To this latter demand, the proprie-
tors say they will never agree SO long
as the strikers maintain their present
attitude. The unions demand abso-
lutely that the members of the Hotel
Keepers association come to the
offices of the unions as individuals
and not as members of any associa-
ton.
The employees have hopes Of bring
ing to their aid the members of the
teamsters' and engineers unions in
order to keep supplies out of the ho-
tells, but the officers of both these
unions say they will take no hand in
the matter. as the cooks and walters
Unions have placed themselves In the
wrong by refusing arbitration.

PRINCE PETER THE NEW KING.
Received His Education In Belgrade
Dissipated and a Spendthrift.

Geneva, June 13.-The new king of
Servia. Peter, received his education
in Belgrade during the reign of his
father, being 10 years old when the
family was expelled from the Servian
soil. Later he went to school In
Pesth and Temesvar, and besides re-
peated visits to Russia, spent several
years at the small court Of Prince
Nicholas OF Montenegro at CettinJe.
While there he became the sutton OF
the latter's daughter, Princess Zorka,
and married her in 1883. She died
seven years later. The issue of this
marriage are three children. daugh-
ter OF 10 and two sons, aged respec-
lively Is and 10. Since 1891 Prince
Peter has been residing In Geneva.
Because of his dissipated and spend
thrift habits Prince Peter separated
with his father-in-law and lost the
good graces of Alexander iii OF Rus
STA, from whom he received large
gifts of money on several occasions.
Since the accession of the present
car, however. there has been sort
of a reconciliation with st. Peters
burg and the finances of Prince Peter
were put and kept on sound basis,
but he has been very poor. 1t Is said
that Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus
tria assisted materially in this finan-
cial rehabilitation. Since 1891 Prince
Peter, never wealthy, has neverthe-
less, been living in modest comfort at
Geneva His younger brother, Arse
MUS. served for number of years as
an officer in the Russian guards and

wealthy Russian lady, with whom he

GOD BLESS THE CIRCUS"
Wallaces Show Has The Best Wishes
of the Orphans.

Des Moines, June l5.-Of the num-
erous letters priced by the manage
ment of the Wallace show, one is
especially highly esteemed 1t runs
like this: I'VE had happy, happy,
happy time at the Wallace circus
yesterday afternoon. We will never
forget it. May God bless the Wallace
show" This was followed by forty
eight poorly scrubbed but genuine
signatures of boys and girls who,
through the generosity of their guard
ians. were able to see the Wallace
show for their first circus"
B. E. Wallace, the sole owner OF
the big Wallace show, considers the
frequency of the visits OF the orphans
and other unfortunates as compli-
ment to his show. Many states allow
the inmates of their state institu
lions to attend one circus annually,
its officers selecting the show to be
attended and the state paying the
bill. Recently in an Illinois city
where three shows were advertised at
the same time, the manager OF the
asylum for the insane decided that
they would take as many patients as
could safely be taken TO the wallace
circus. Scarcely day passes but that
some generous minded person calls
at the show lot early in the day to
buy tickets and reserved seats for a
number of orphan or poor children.
A big three-ring circus and extern
sive menagerie like that offered by
the great Wallace show is certainly
a children's delight. We have other
circuses, but there is only one Wal
lace show, and 1t is generally conced-
ed that Mr.. Wallace has in many ways
cleverly provided for the amusement
of the little folks as well as present
ing scores of actually new and al
most miraculous features for the
qualification of the adult parents, and
these are sufficient reasons for be-
lieving that the immense Wallace
tents will be packed as usual to their
capacity when ii exhibits in Des
Moines next Friday, June 10. Re-
duced rates on all railroads.

ARSON AT JACKSON. KENTUCKY.
Captain Ewine's Hotel 10 Destroyed
by Fire.

Louisville, KY, June 15.-The city
hotel at jackson, KY, three-story
building. owned by Captain b. J.
Even. the principal witness against
lett and White now on trial there for
the assassination of Lawyer j. b. Mar
cum. was burned to the ground early
Yesterday morning. There were fif
teen guests in the hotel, but all es'
capped without injury. There was no
insurance on the structure and the
hotel. together with its furnishings
and effects OF the guests, is total
loss. The origin of the fire is I'M
known. but the belief is general that
the fire was OF incendiary origin.
Captain Even had recently put up
an addition to the hotel. This was
lust completed and was as yet unoc-
cupied. II was in this part OF the
hotel that the fire was discovered.
The town Of Jackson has no hre de-
partment, and as its citizens were
awakened by the firing OF pistols and
guns, much excitement prevailed. A
detachment of militia Tme on the
double-quick from their camp across
the river and rendered valuable aid
in assisting the guests TO escape and
preventing the flames from spreading.
Captain Even has been kept at the
camp of the militia since he testified
last Monday that he saw Curtis Jet
fire the shot which killed Marcum.
Nobody was seen to leave the hotel
before the fire broke out II was only
two days ago that Jackson was put
under martial law. The fire has
caused renewed apprehension.

European Monarchs Tremble With
Horror at the Assassins' Work.
Vienna, June 15.--The frightful car
nival of assassination. the swift and
horrible red night of Belgrade. struck
dread at the Court of Frances Joseph
of Austria, at the court of the car,
at the court of Berlin, and as for Bull
garia, the wholesale murder in the
sister kingdom has brought the mem.
bers of the present regime to a state
of absolute horror.
Prince Ferdinand, the ruler of the
kingdom, deserted his capital several
weeks ago Rumors of plots to as
sassinate him grew too numerous for
his nerves. to longer be around them,
and he fed.
AS for the courts of the great king
doms mentioned, the insidious silent
manner in which the Servian army
was won over from allegiance to its
monarch, the lightning swiftness with
which the bloody coup d'etat was
dealt, makes every throne feel inse-
cure and brings to every monarch a
sudden sense of weakness, of utter
helplessness, should the politicians
and the armies choose to turn against
them and lead the people.
One of Alexander's sins for which
his life paid was his ignoring and con-
temptuous treatment of the common
peoples party of his state. His con-
duct was no more contemptuous than
is that of Emperor William of Ger
many for the socialists of his king
dom. who compose a large proportion
OF the population. The coup OF Bel
grade. 1t is feared. may stir the Ger
man socialists to intrigue and to an
armed revolution.
But by far the worst fears enter
tanned in all the courts is that in
dividual anarchists, notoriously emo
tional, may be stirred to do desperate
deeds against the persons Of the rul-
ers and the men high in river. III
