WOMAN TRIES GRAFT
And Finds Easy Victims Among
Wives of Black Hawk
County Farmers
HAIR COMBINES AND EGGS
She Sold Hair Tonic, Secured Valua-
BILE Hair combinss and Five or Six
Dozen Eggs, the Latter to Pay for
Making of the Switch Which Never
Came-lowa News.

Waterloo, June 20.-Wives of many
Black Hawk county farmers have dur
ing the past month been victims of a
smooth lady CRATER. who during her
stay in the county cleared UP several
hundred dollars by her scheme, which
is a new one in these parts.
The lady, with a little daughter.
stopped at a prominent boarding house
in this city and daily with her child
drove out thru the country selling hair
tonic to the farm ladies'. After having
sold them a bottle of worthless hair
tonic for a dollar, she would ask II they
had any hair combings. This necessary
accompaniment OF every WoinarIs toliet
was then taken by the lady, to be
brought to her rooms in this CITY ana
made into a fine switch that would
make the farm wife have twice the
amount of hair that she naturally had.
After securing the hair combings she
stated that she was doing light house
keeping in the city and would IKE
about five dozen eggs. The eggs would
pay for the making of the switch, she
stated. After selling the tonic, secur-
ing the valuable hair combings and iiVe
or six dozen eggs. for which she had
case under the seat of her buggy. the
lady would leave with promise to re-
turn the switch and pay for the eggs In
about two weeks. That was the last
seen of her at that farm house.
This combination of CRAFTS she
worked at hundreds of farm houses.
The hair combings the lady shipped TO
Chicago. where they We're sold for high
prices, while the eggs were sold to local
grocers at highest market prices. Not
until Saturday was her graft found
out. and then it was too late, for she
had left the city on an early morning
train without giving her next stopping
place incidentally she left many ac-
counts, including board bill. in the
city.
The lady with her smooth combina.
ton is new one to the police of this
county. She doubtless made hundreds
of dollars, as ess5 IRE na't high
priced. the tonic made of colored water
and the hair combngs worth much
money in hair dressing and switch
making establishments.

experiment. The company wants to do
the work at cost and will give seven
year guarantee that the paving at the
end of that time will not show wear
of thirty per cent.

Retriaj There.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa city. June 20.-Hounded by the
thought that she should never receive
G fair and impartial trial before john
son county jury for the alleged murder
of her husband, Sarah Ellen Gall.iugher
prayed the Johnson county court to
grant change of Venue, allowing the
retrial to come before jury and In a
county which does not know OF the de-
tails of the crime.
BY her attorney George +. Hoibert
Mrs, Gallagher filed with the county
clerk today over forty affidavits Of diff
ferent men in the county, all of
whom allege that IL justice is to be
done the new trial must come before
another court.
Mrs. Gallaugher alleges in her affi
dayit that a fair and impartial trial is
impossible in the johnson county
court: that the judge himself, Tho in
spite of himself. has been influenced
against her by the clamor of popular
opinion. which demands that the
W oiiittii VIC iisAiiSSsi LAX isistt liiti
as yet she has been convicted of no
crime save perjury. and the case in
which she was convicted OF that crime
was reversed by the supreme court.
Attorney Holbeft alleges In his atii-
davit filed with the court that Judge
Byington is affected by the rumoiS that
the judge had a pre-triai agreement
with Mr.. Holbert to the effect that the
judge would shelter Mrs. Gallaug'her in
the trial--an entirely false runior. as
Mr.. Holbert states.
1t is brought out in the petition of
the woman that Judge Byington has
received over 100 letters from those
who have interested themselves In the
crime. urging him not TO allow Mrs.
Gallaugher free transcript of the tes-
timony in order that she might carry
the case to the supreme court The
maker OF the motion does not believe
that Judge Byington is willfully unfair.
but that he is led to the course of ac-
ton which he takes by the prejldicea
attitude of the community.
