TO Robustness College Team De-
feated.
The high school team had little Diff
flculty at Eldora Saturday beating the
eleven from state Industrial school by
the score Of % to IL. Halves Of thir-
ty and thirty-flve minutes were played.
Marshalltown's touchdowns were all
made on straight football, while the
home team resorted to fake plays al
most entirely for its gains.
Kirk won the toss and chose to de-
fend the north goal. The industrial
school kicked off and on the third down
Perry broke away from the field and
ran sixty yards. to within five yards
of the opponents goal. On the next
scrimmage the ball was showed over
for touchdown. The industrial
schools greatest weakness was at It's
ends, which the high school teams
backs circled time and again for long
runs behind interference. Several
times the Industrial school worked long
gains on criss-cross, double and triple
and delayed pass plays. Early in the
game Beasley was taken out, and Rath-
art was substituted in his stead. on
account of the former being slightly
injured. Captain Kirk said after the
game that he was we'll satisfied with
the way the team played.
Business College Beaten.
The Central Iowa Business College
team met defeat at the hands OF the
Boone high school Saturday by the
score of 20 to 0. The lack OF practice
and team play was responsible for
the defeat. For the business college
team Salisbury and Powell played a
star game.

MYSTERIOUS
DISAPPEARANCE OF ED.
WARD SMILEY
GONE FOR ENTIRE WEEK
Foul Play is Now Strong
IY Suspected.

Missing for eight days. This has
been the fate OF Edward Smiley, the
man who, previous to his disappear
ance, ran the new saloon at the cor
ner of Hazelett avenue and West
Tuscarawas street. The curious man
ner OF Smitley's disappearance has
led his friends and relatives to be.
lieve that foul play is responsible.
On Monday evening, March 14th,
Smiley left his place of business in
the early part of the evening with
about $3.50 on his person. His inten-
ton was to go to nearby business
house and get the greater portion OF
the amount changed into bills ana
coins of smaller denominations. One
OF his assistants was placed in charge
of the establishment. When closing
time came Smiley did not appear.
The following morning his wife and
friends became apprehensive. The
saloon, it is reported, is controlled by
the Canton Brewing company, and
through this firms employees the po-
lice officials were informed. Several
of the latter were delegated to investi.
gat the affair but 50 far nothing new
has developed.
The matter has been kept yer,
quiet and 1t was not until last night
that Smitley's disappearance was
made public. Yesterday Lieutenant
Wielandt and several officers, ac-
companied by persons intimately ac-
quainted with the missing man, waded
through the waters of West creek
from the waterworks park to South
street. High rubber hoots were
worn by most of the party and the
searchers went into the stream as
deep as this protection would permit.
Then the race was explored but the
quest was vain. Today a new and
more thorough method will be adopt
ed. Long ice picks will be used and
by these the deeper parts of the
streams can be dragged.
Foul play seems to be the general
opinion of the mans friends. No
signs OF struggle could be found In
the vicinity of the saloon. In order
to get the desired change Smiley
would have had to go in the direction
of the creek. No idea is entertained
that the man has left the city, be
cause he would likely have taken all
of the money whicn was in the sa.
loon. Smiley has been a resident OF
this town during the past six or eight
months. No information could be Sc
cured from the saloon last night.

Railway Law is Being
Tested.

Washington, d. c., March 21-The
constitutionality of the Jim Crow
railway law in force in the state of
Virginia is being tested in the suit of
Nelson Stanley Spencer of New York
against the Washington, Alexandria
and Mount Vernon Railway company,
begun today before Chief Justice Cla-
baugh in circuit court No. l. Mr..
Spencer sues to recover $4,000 as
damages because of alleged Illegal az
rest by order of the management of
the defendant railway company.
He says that in May 1903 he was in
Washington TO attend to some legal
business before the supreme court OF
the United States. While there he and
his wife decided TO visit Mount
Vernon.
On the return from that place he
says he was directed by the conductor
in charge of the car in which he was
riding to move from the rear part OF
the car in which he was sitting to a
more forward position. because he was
in one of the seats In the car set aside
for the use of "coons." This he re.
fused to 20 and when he arrived in
Alexandria, he was arrested and fined
s. for violation of the railway law.

ADMIRAL DEWEY
Leads Fight Against the
Army.

Washington, d. c., March 21.-Ad-
miral Dewey and the general board
of the navy propose to make a fight
on the interference of the army in ma
val matters. A meeting of the joint
army and navy board has been called
for next week If satisfactory ar.
rangement cannot then be made to
prevent interference, Admiral Dewey
and his board will appeal to congress.
This promises to precipitate the
liveliest kind of row between these
branches of the service.
The senate recently added an
amendment TO the fortifications bill
authorizing the war department to
purchase one submarine boat and ex.
pertinent with ii for sea coast defense
purposes. II is the contention of Ad.
miral Dewey and the naval board that
all war vessels of whatever descrip,
tion should be under one head.

Negro Brakeman Shot a
G. g. 0. Fireman.
DYING IN A HOSPITAL

Roanoke, Va, March 21.-John A.
Ruff, Chesapeake and Ohio fireman,
was shot and fatally wounded In the
yards at Clifton Forge this morning
by negro brakeman named Robert
Bowles. Ruff was called to leave Cliff
ton Forge at 2:45 this morning and
was on his engine when the negro
walked up to the locomotive and or
dered him to clear the track. He re-
fused to do SO and Bowles fired three
shots at him, two of which took ef-
feet, one in the heart and the other
in the hip. The wounded man was i'm
mediately taken to the hospital where
his injuries were pronounced fatal.
The negro fed and has not yet been
apprehended.
The Baldwin detective agency of
this city was notified of the shooting
and men are now searching the coun.
try for Bowles. If he is caught he
will doubtless be lynched.

SULTANA SURVIVORS
Will Demand Memorial
for Dead Comrades.

Ex-Sheriff J. ]. Zaiser goes to CO.
lumbus this morning to meet with 9th
er survivors of the Sultana disaster
to urge the legislature to pass an act
creating a commission to arrange fol
the erection of a monument to the
Ohio soldiers who perished in that
great disaster. Col. Roudebaugh Of
Lindsey and DR.. w. p. Madden, of
Xenia will act with Mr.. Zaiser in the
matter.
When the Sultana was sunk April
q. 1866, about 100 Union soldiers,
most of them returning from south
en prisons, were drowned Fully
One-third of the number were from
Ohio. Michigan, Illinois and the other
states from which the soldiers came,
have already erected memorials, and
1t is thought that Ohio should do like
wise.
The survivors of the disaster will
meet at Gallon April 81, to hold their
annual reunion. There are about 1875
still living of those who escaped wa.
terry graves.

Upon in Secret Session
Of Committee.
SOME SERIOUS CHARGES

Washington, d. c.. March 21.-The
judiciary committee of the house Of
representatives, after a prolonged Sc
cret session early this evening adopt
ed the report of its sub committee fa-
voring the impeachment of Judge
Charles swasne Of the federal vench
of the state of Florida. Judge Palmer

sub committee. composed OF himself
and Gillett CRep. Cali and Clayton
(Dem. Ala.) which q visited Florida,
took testimony and later heard argu-
ments here, was instructed to prepare
the report.
The recommendation to the house
that impeachment proceedings be be-
gun may be made tomorrow, although
II is now believed 1t will be deferred
until the report is completed.
The committee decided not to make
public the charges at this time. 1t IL
known that one of the gravest charg.
es against Judge Swayne was his send
ing the son Of bankrupt to Jail fol
contempt. The prisoner felt the dis
grace so keenly that he committed sui
eide. 1t is alleged that the father hat
been forced into bankruptcy on {
claim of $4,000 although at the hear
ing 1t was shown that he had property
exceeding in value $4,000 and tha
most Of the creditors were willing
that the proceedings be put aside
The son, It is said, held back pape
which the court had directed him Il
produce, hence the Imprisonment TO
contempt. Other charges are of beini
absent from the bench and of being {
nonresident.
Should the house adopt the report o
the committee, the adjournment o
congress will be extended from 81,
weeks to month. The senate will
sit as court of impeachment in opel
session. Judge Swayne will be per
mitted counsel. Six members of tn
house will be selected to act as pros
ecutors. Although they may be divid
ed politically they will act as uni
in this case, representing the lowe
