YALE LAW DEAN.

Much Interest in Choice of a Professor
 for the Position.
 Among the undergraduates of the Yale law department, and the lawyers in general in this city, there was con- siderable discussion yesterday over Dean Wayland's resignation, which was accepted at the meeting of the Yale corporation Monday afternoon. At present there are two candidates men, toned for the vacancy left by the resignation of Dean Wayland, who has so long faithfully carried out the duties of his office-Professor Woolsey and Rogers.
 Since Dean Waylands illness Profess sor Woolsey has been occupying the po- sition of acting dean, and there are many who believe that he will be per manently elected to this position before the year is out. On the other hand, many think that Professor Henry Wade Rogers, who came to the law depart ment two years ago, will be elected next dean.
 The men feel that whichever of the two candidates mentioned should get the position he would fill the place ably and to the credit of Yale.

SUGGEST COMMERCIAL CLUB
Large Number Sign Call for Prelim-
mary Meeting Next Wednes-
day Evening.

The movement to organize a commercial
club in Council Bluffs is crystallizing rap
idly and business men generally throughout
the city have declared themselves In favor
OF the formation of such organization. Since
the disarmament of the Merchants and
Manufacturers association several years
ago the city has been without any organi-
cation to push or look after its interests.
The commercial committee Of the city coun-
Gil, organized several years ago, died a
natural death from lack Of interest by the
members, although General e. F. Test, as
president of the committee, has from time
TO time called the attention of the city
council to certain needs Of the city. The
committee, however, has, to all intents and
purposes, been a dead letter for several
years.
A commercial club, however, seems now
to be assured and a meeting will be held
Wednesday evening, January IL at 8 o'clock,
n the city council chamber, to effect a
preliminary organization. The following
firms ana business men have interested
themselves in the movement:
David Bradley & Co, E. II. Merriam,

WEBSTER CITY, Ia, Jan. 7.-(Special

from store buildings. The thermometer is

FORT DODGE, Ia, Jan. 7.-(special Tele-
gram.)-Fort Dodge and Webster counties
have been visited by a violent windstorm,
which lasted all Tuesday night and con-
tinued with hardly abated violence through
today. The city has been almost isolated
from telegraph and telephone communica-
ton. the storm playing havoc with the
wires In ali parts Of the country. Railroad
wires are also down and trains are operated
only with the greatest difficulty. The Mime
apolis & st. Louis railroad is the greatest
sufferer. Trains have alp been an hour or
more late today and are running with
schedules in the hands OF conductors.
The wind was accompanied by a light fall
Of snow, but not sufficiently heavy TO do
any damage. At times the gale has blown
over seventy miles and hour. and uprooted
trees and shattered windows all over the
city attest its violence. The Thermometer
is falling rapidly and a severe spell OF cold

BURGLAR PROVES FIGHTER
After Being Fired at Returns and Ia es
Shot at Charles Poore,
BULLET MIS- .ES MARK AND STRIKES BED
POore Returns the Compliment, but
There is No Evidence Any of the
Shots Reached Their In
ended Mark.

Charles Poore had an exciting encounter
with a burglar who attempted to break
into his house at 109 North Sixth street,
about 3 O'Clock yesterday morning. Poore
and the burglar exchanged shots and che
saloon man believes that he wounded his
unwelcome visitor. As a memento OF the
encounter Poore has the remains OF a 3S-
callber bullet which narrowly missed him
and was fsttened out against the head OF
a folding bed. Two shattered windows and
holes in the curtains are further evidences
Of the fusilade between Poore and the
burglar.
The burglar first secured entrance to
the house through the window Of the bath
room, but as the door Of the room was
locked was unable to get further into
the house. The noise the burglar made
in attempting to open the bath room door
aroused Poore, who got out OF bed. Failing
to get into the house by the bath room the
burglar made an attempt to force a
window on the north side OF the house,
| when he was warned away by Poore.
The fellow, however, instead Of leaving,
went to the front of the house and SIC
! ceeded in partly raising the window. Poore
in the meantime had armed himself with
a single barrel shotgun belonging to his
son and as the fellow raised the window,
fred at him. Most of the shot, however,
lodged in the back Of a chair next the
! window, but a part of the charge went
through the window and, as Poore believes,
into the anatomy of the burglar.
After securing the shotgun Poore took
the precaution to turn down the gas, but
| turned 1t UP again as soon as he had fired,
supposing that the fellow by this time had
been frightened away. He returned to the
bedroom and was in the act Of reloading
the gun, when crash through the window
came a bullet. narrowly missing his head
and striking the end OF q folding bed where
Il hattened out. Poore instantly fired again
at the window through which the bullet
came, the charge making a hole in the
glass within six inches Of the hole made
by the burglars shot.
Hastily donning a few clothes Poore went
to the house OF a ~neighbor and telephoned
% the police, but by the time the officers
arrived no trace could be found of the
burglar.
The persistent manner in which the fell
low attempted to enter leads the police to
believe that the burglar was aware of the
fact that Poore usually carried home with
him a considerable sum of money and that
he was prepared to take desperate chances
to secure it. Another theory is that the
fellow received some of the shot OF the
first charge fired by Poore and that In
revenge HI decided to take a shot at Poore
and the turning UP of the gas again pre-
! sented to him the opportunity.

PAYS PENA TY ON GALLONS
Paul Woodward is Hanged at Camden, New
Jersey, for Murder
HIS VICTIMS ARE TWO YOUNG BOYS
Puts Arsenic in Pies which Thee buy
TO Eat, His only Motive for
Crime Being TO Rob
Them.
HIS VICTIMS ARE TWO YOUNG BOYS

CAMDEN, N. j., Jan. Paul Woodward,
aged II years. was hanged in the Camden
Jail today. The drop fell at SG5 and
Woodward was pronounced dead ten
minutes later.
woodward was apparently the most I'm
concerned person in the party at the hang
Ing aud showed remarkable nerve.
The crime for which Paul Woodward to-
day paid the death penalty was the muir
der October l, last, of John Coffin, aged
II years, and Price Jennings, aged IA.
The boys disappeared from their homes
on October 1 and their bodies were found
In a wood near MADDEN Heights, six miles
from here, on October 4. Previous to the
discovery Of the bodies woodward had gone
to the home OF young Comm and said he
could find the boy IL a suitable reward
was offered.
This cast suspicion upon him and upon
investigation it was learned that Wood
ward had been seen in company with the
lads on the day of their disappearance and
that the three had purchased pies near
where the murder was committed. Wood
ward was subsequently, arrested.
An analysis of the boys stomachs showed
that they died from a~rsenlcal poisoning.
The police learned that Woodward had
bought arsenic a few days prior to the
boys disappearance and, upon having been
indicted by the grand jury, he was placed
on trial and convicted Of murder in the
first degree. After being sentenced by
Judge Garrison an appeal was made to
the pardoning board on the ground OF in
sanity. but the board refused to take
action.
Counsel for the prosecution claimed that
Woodward had poisoned the boys for the
purpose OF robbery. When they left home
the boys had $40 In their possession, but
when the bodies were found the pockets
Of the clothing did not contain d penny.
