Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, July 23.-Miss Pearle Mar
tin, the adopted daughter of Bill and
Jane Martin, two eccentric people who
own and live on the Watkins Well
farm up in the northern part of this
county. is causing the foster parents
and the Humane Society OF Des
Moines all colors of trouble. The girl,
Pearle Haybreir, was adopted by the
Martins seveSal years ago and lived
with them /, ltil about a year ago,
when she wa taken from them by the
Humane Society on the grounds that
they were not bringing her up prop
erly. After living with a family in
Des Moines for nearly year and
proving to be incorrigible she was sent
TO reformatory at Dubuque. Now
comes Jane Martin. the foster mother,
with blood in her eye and gets out pa
pers to secure possession OF the girl.
and also bringing suit against the
11uIHdlc sSoCiSty Lux uduid5SS AoI tan
ing the girl from her.
Mrs. Martin has secured the services
of an attorney and intends pushing the
action. The Martins are queer lot
Rich. worth in the neighborhood of
half million dollars, they are sloven-
ly and uncouth in their dress and about
the premises and live and work like
misers. Jane Martin Is the head of the
house and manages the financial af-
fairs. The place they live on has
large artesian well and artificial pond
near the house which is conducted as
sort of summer resort. Should the
succeed in gaining possession of
the GIRL Pearle, she will doubtless be
heir to the entire estate. Altho having
lived the life she has been compelled
to live for years and being without
school advantages, the girl is an intel
lgent child and rather pretty. She is
anxious to go back to her former mode
of living and again take up her home
with the Martins.

HOKUF TRIES SUICIDE
Man Who Confessed to the Murder OF
Farmer johnson Near siblsy Shoots
Himself and Will Probably Die.


Special to Times Republican.
sibiey, July 22.-Fred Hokuf, the
sen-confessed murderer OF farmer
named Johnson. attempted to kill him-
self in the jail here shortly after noon
today. He shot himself with 32-cal-
.ibre revolver, the bullet passing thru
the abdomen and part OF the liver ana
lodging In the back. The doctors think
the wound will prove fatal.
Hokuf, ii will be remembered, about
three weeks ago. was arrested ON the
charge OF numbering farmer naine'
Johnson, who disappeared from ms
home mysteriously two years ago. mo-
knf who had worked for Johnson, took
possession OF his farm under pre-
tended lease, saying johnson had gone
TO the old country. Developments re-
Gently indicated that Hokufs story
was a fake. and investigation resulted
In the arrest OF Hokuf. A week later
/. searching party found Johnson's
body buried in his stable and the next
day Hokuf made confession. Since
that time he has been extremely down
cast and 1t was feared he would at
tempt to kill himself. 1t is a mystery
where he secured the weapon. He has
a wife and child.

Lucky.
A political lieutenant once announced
to Senator Quay a disastrous defeat,
making the announcement In blunt,
brusque terms. says the New York
Tribune.
Senator Quay gave the man one OF
his peculiar direct glances and smiled
slightly. Then he said:
You have broken this news gently.
You remind me Of an Irishman. This
Irishman had great faitn in his diplo-
macy and delicacy. and one day when
boy was killed at the quarry he told the
men to leave everything in his hands,
and he would break the news to the
boys mother as II should be done.
so he went home, put on black
suit and black tie. and he knocked at
the door of the boys mothers house.
Good mornin, ma'am.' he said.
'Tis a sad accident yer bye Toms

why said the mother, Tom never

Chairman Carter who signed the

admits the zeal and efficiency of the
local press but cites the fact that
they. like papers in other cities, enjoy
a general circulation in a limited area,
and beyond lines of special influence

Numbers of people do not seem to

This. he argues. could be done

he believes the newspapers Of the re-

some suggestions along this line and
proposes a conference OF the various
commissioners to consider and take ac-

front is the dispatch from Lao Yang
dated July 90. reporting e. persistent
rumor that the Japanese have broken
thru the Russian left wing between the
respective positions Of Lieutenant Gem
eral Count Keller and General Rennen-
kampff and are marching upon Muk-
dem The report received from General
Kuropatkin bearing the same date says
that there has been no change of i'm

lieved here that the rumo1 probably
refers to the japanese advance against
General Rannenkampff on the northern
Samaitsza-L Lao Yang road when they
drove the Russians back as FAR as Hou-
tsiatZe, twenty six miles east of Lao

Wants Export CONCESSIONS.
Berlin. July 22.-Ambassador Tower
sailed for the United States on hts an
nuaI vacation yesterday. He will re-
port that German-American relations,
SO far as observable in this city, ara
the most pleasant that have prevailed
for many years. He declares that all
traces of i'll feeling generated by the
Venezuelan incident in 1902, have dts
appeared. and that the present inclina-
ton of the kaiser's government is ia
meet American wishes in every possl-
BILE respect. Mr. Tower hopes to ar.
range the final details of the dedication
Of the Frederick the Great statue In
Washington, which Is now set for No-
vember 20. He believes that the at
fair deserves a brilliant success be.
cause of the wholeheartedness and
genuineness Of tho kaiser's purpose n
presenting the statue to the American
people.
Mr.. Tower states that no negotia-
tions have been instituted In the di-
rection Of German-Amer1ean treaty
All that he can report to Washington
is that the German commercial world
is earnestly desirous that some basis
for satisfactory agreement may pe
found. The ambassador was quoted
as follows:
Leading German manufacturers are
frankly favoring a war OF retaliation
in America unless concessions In favor
of German exports are obtainable It
is an open secret that all the German
pending treaty negotia-
tions with European powers are based
ON the hope of placing the fatherland
in the most advantageous position pos
sible for striking a hard bargain with
the United States.
