DIES MONIES, Iowa, July B-"Par-
ker wins, Bryan and Hearst lose" Re
peating these words. r. E Moseley
president OF the Lake City Bank, capt
talist. and politician, was sent to the
insane hospital at Cherokee yesterday,
bereft Of reason, because of overen-
thusiGsm at the Democratic National
Convention at st. Louis.
Mr.. Moseley IS wealthy. He owns
one-third Of the residence property of
Lake City ard holds stock in several
banks
AT Tie convention his enthusiasm over
Parker knew no bounds. Returning
home, he talked Of nothing but Parker,
bitterly denouncins Bryan. and blam-
ing Hearst for ''demoralizing Iowa De-
mOcracy." He virtually talked himself
insane, and yesterday was adjudged by
the commissioners Of insanity, who in
Vestigated the case at the request OF
Moseley's relatives.
At first he delighted in relating the
details Of the convention, just as other
returned delegates have done. Gradual
ly his talk resolved itself into the one
statement, the points which had pleased
him most:
Parker wins! Bryan and Hearst
lose"
These words he repeated over and
over until his insanity could not be
questioned.
Mr.. Moseley failed Of a place on the
State delegation TO st. Louis, because
he was a Parker man and Hearst was
in control. Nevertheless, he went to ST.
Louis for Justification for his attitude.

BALTIMORE, July 1s.-That the norni-
nation Of Judge Parker by the Demo-
Gratis will bring into greater national
prominence Senator elect Isidor Rayner
is certain.
Rayner was an ardent admirer OF the
New York Judge before his nomination.
and was consulted by the leaders or the
Parker movement on several occa Aons.
Now that the nomination has been
made. there is little doubt that Rayner
voice will be heard in the larger cities or
the East and some few Of them in the
West. Invitations TO address the people
have come TO him from New York, Pnll-

Rayner to Be Heard.
Rayner has thus far declined to say
whether or not he will be able to accept
all the invitations which have come 10
him.
He says, however. that his voice Will
be heard in the campaign. His law
practice is very large. and TO devote any
great amount Of time to the campaign
will be a sacrifice that few of the lead
ers would feel justified in asking.

Mr.. Gall has just ci0sed very sue
cessful term of three years as the bust
ness manager Of the order In this city,
and has been very much liked by the
members as evidenced by an election
held only recently, when he carried ten
OF the eleven tents voting at the time
for alternate for which office he was a
candidate, and was elected by a very
decided majority, which was evidence Of
the high esteem in which he was held
by the membership of the order.
Mr.. Gall expects TO remain in Port
Huron after the meeting OF the supreme
body is over for the purpose Of looking
after the interest Of his constituents.

TO WORK IN OTHER STATES

INDIANAPOLIS, July 1s.-The Demo
cratic managers in this State are appre-
hensive that Indiana is to be abandoned
in the coming campaign, and that the
party's effort is TO be concentrated on
Illinois. Wisconsin, West Virginia, and
other States in which the Republicans
are at loggerheads or in which the ma
Jorities for that party in recent years
have not been as large as they have
been in this State.
Two teiegrams combine 10 make such
a thing probable. At the ST. Louis con-
vention many OF the Eastern leaders
constantly expressed doubts as 10 the
party's ability 10 carry this State, and
the opinion was frequently expressed
that it would be better to concentrate
IN States where the outlook is better.

for the second place on the ticket and

garding the craftsmanship IL has been

His First Marriage
While he was employed by DR.. Miller

When the Ponca habeas corpus case
came up a few years after the death Of
his wife, Tibbles became much inter
ested in the rights of the Ponca Indians,
and was engaged as one OF the leading
counsel.
He went to the reservation to look up
the case, and a beautiful young Indian
girl. popularity known as Bright Eyes, %
was recommended 70 him as one who
would be apt TO give him clear and in
telligent testimony.
He met the girl and became greatly
attracted by her unusual beauty and
quiclCness OF mind. She had received an
excellent education AZ an Eastern col
lege in Elizabeth, ". J.
Tibbles and Bright Eyes" were mar
ried in 1852.

advice Of Bishop Clarkson. went East

He declared he should consider he had
mastered the English language II he had
such perfect control OF II as this Indian
woman. The lecturing tour was con-
tinued in Europe, and Mrs. T1bbles be-
came very popular among the nobility.
