THINKS REPORT OF DEATH
OF HUSBAND IS 4 JOKE

Ypsilanti. Mich, June 11--Dr. Geo
Geist. chief surgeon of the sanatOriuln
at Prairie du Chen. Wis. died sud
denly Tuesday at McGregor, Ia, of Il
nemmorrha &c of the brain. His wife,
who has been visiting in this city, re-
fuses to believe it. thinking her hus-
band is only playing a practical joke
on her. When Mrs. Geist left her hus-
band for Il visit to friends and rela-
tives here he told her jokingly that if
she did not return i'll three weeks he
would make life miserable for her"
Mrs. Geist thought nothing more of
the matter until Monday, when she re-
ceived several telegrams telling of her
husbands serious illness, and these
she looked upon as Il continuation of
the joke, as the three weeks allowed
her by her husband were up that day.
Later she received a telegram an
nouncing his death, but put it down
as u continuation of the joke. as she
had left her husband in the best of
health. She left for Albion, where
her mother resides, for Il continuation
of her visit, still thinking that there
she would hear more of the supposed
prank.

PLENTY OF RESOURCES, BUT
BANK IS FORCED TO CLOSE

Goodland, Ind, June 1.-THE doors
of the Home bank have been closed.
+. ID. Gilman, president and cashier,
is absent, and his address is unknown.
Gilman left here Monday with the
avowed intention OF procuring money
from one of the indianapolis banks,
promising to return on the following
day. He has not bene heard from.
Wilson Wickersham, teller. was left in
possession of the bank. Wednesday
noon he reported that he had no funds
with which to meet checks. and, act
ing upon the advice of attorneys. he
refused to receive deposits WedneS-
day afternoon, although $500 is known
to have been deposited during the
morning hours.
The schedule shows deposits in the
bank amounting to $153,OOO This in
cludes $4,000 of county funds and
about $1,5OO township money. Farm
ers will be effected strongly. as the
bank was largely patronized by them
because it promised to pay per cent.
on time deposits. Many of the busi-
ness men, both borrowers and depOs-
itors. also suffer. The exact cause OF
the failure is unknown, although it is
attributed to longtime loans upon
which no cash could be realized.

CONVICT LABOR
LAW IS ENJOINED
Prison Contractors Who VIII Suffer
by IL Start Fight In
Courts.

Springfield, Ill, June 1T.-JuSt In
time to forestall the payment of SO
600 warrant. Attorney Levy Mayer. of
Chicago. reached Springfield and Sc
cured a temporary injunction from
Federal Judge Humphrey restraining
the cashing of the warrant, which is
the first drawn under the act of the
last general assembly, Familiarity
termed as the Convict labor BILL The
proceeding. which questions the conSti-
tutionality of the act, is brought by
Whiting G.. Press. a Chicago taxpayer.
The law would oust the contractors in
the penitentiaries and the injunction Is
said to be on their behalf.
The contention on which the action
is based is that the bill presented to
Governor Yates for his signature was
not the one that passed the two houses
of the general assembly, and that aft
er once signing the bill and placing 1t
on file Governor Yates, contrary to law,
recalled the document, and himself or
through another. changed the docu-
m1nt so as to conform with the bill as
passed by the legislature. and then re-
traced his signature to the bill and re-
turned it to the office of secretary of
state. The change. according to the al
legations of the bill, was the interline-
alton of the word ''Wil'fully," which
had been inserted through an amend
ment. but which failed to appear In the
CODY presented for the signature of
the speaker of the house and the pres
ident of the senate and afterward sent
