GOOD OLD DAYS GONE.
Presidents Uncle Says Jeffersonian

New York, April 14.-Days of
"Jeffersonian simplicity are over for
ever, according to Robert B. Roose-

Roosevelt, who is an active Democrat.

of Thomas Jefferson's birthday.
1.-The days of Jefersonian simplicity

pathy with them, but I am far from
quarreling with the man who thinks
and feels otherwise and sometimes I
have had doubts about the sincerity
of the simplicity of which we have
heard so much. Was there not a lit

toll, hitching the horse to a post and
stepping into the court room to take
the oath of office? Would our citi-

CONSPIRACY CHARGED.
A. L. Atwood and S. P. Mold Are In
Disfavor.

A rather sensational disclosure ap-
peared in an application for a restrain
ing order fled in the United States cir
cult court today in which the National
Life Insurance company of Chicago
charges A. L Atwood OF Topeka, and
s. p Mold OF Seneca, with a conspir-
acy to destroy its business.
From the petition it is obtained that
Mold and Atwood were representatives
of the insurance company up to Feb
ruary y, 1904. at which date they sep
arated with their employers. In years
previous. the National Life Insurance
company has Leen known as the Nd
tional Life and Trust company of Des
Moines, and still back further than
that, had been called the Security Lie
and Insurance company. The policies
were transferred from one concern to
the other, until at the present time. 1t
is averred, the National Life holds
about $4,000 in Kansas, at a value CT
$40, 900, 600.
The application states that after
Mold and Atwood left the company
they went to Kansas City and repre-
sented themselves to the Office there
as still belonging to the concern. IN
that way they obtained access to the
books and a list Of the policy holders,
to whom they wrote that the National
Life of Chicago was in hard straits.
and that If the policies were turned
over to them, the holders would receive
the major share of the money which
they had paid in and to which they
were entitled. For this work they were
, were to receive 50 per. cent commits
sion.
The matter was taken before Judge
Pollock and he granted a restraining
order preventing the defendants from
corresponding further with the policy
holders of the National Life OF Chit
cago. Mold and Atwood then asked
Judge Pollock to modify the order 50
that they could write to the policy
holders on business and matters alien
to the concern Of the insurance COM
pany. Judge Pollock denied this also
today.
The petition does not indicate
whether any action for libel viii be
brought Charles Blood Smith of this
city appeared for the National Life
company, but he said nothing on tie
matter.
It is seldom that a court grants on
order to prevent anyone from writing
letters to certain persons, but that Jig
just the action which the United
States court took today.
The bill is sharp in its denunciation
of the defendants, and the charge Of
attempting to break UP the plaintiffs
business is scattered plentifully
through the 20 pages of it's makeup.
Accompanying it, as proof, are great
many letters written between Mold
and Atwood and the policy holders,
which the attorneys for the insurance
company used as argument In getting
the restraining order.

LOCKETT IN TWO YEARS.
Sentenced Today for Making Pewter
Dollars

Sentenced Today for Making Pewter
Dollars.
". 3. Lockett, of Atchison, was this
morning given d sentence Of two
years in the penitentiary at Leaven-
worth BY Judge Pollock of the United
states court for making counterfeit
dollars. Lockett is 35 years of age
and unmarried
1t appears from the testimony that
he used a plaster Of Paris mould and
pewter as his machinery and material
but never made any attempt to pass
the coins. In delivering the sentence
Judge Pollock stated that it is neces-
sary to protect the money Of the gov
eminent, but he would be somewhat
lenient in the punishment LOckett
thanked the court for the clemency.

WILL SUE TO RECOVER

Woman Preparing to Start Action
Against Pullman Company for
Jewels Lost on Train.

OMAHA, Sept. 13.-Mrs. Mark
Wood of Lincoln is preparing to sue
the Pullman Car Company for $4,000,
this being the value placed by her on
a bag of diamonds which mysterious
ly disappeared from her berth on a
sleeper on the Pennsylvania Railroad
on the night of August 25.
Mrs. Wood was passenger on the
limited over the road mentioned. In
the presence of other passengers she
displayed a roll of bills and the lew
els in paying for her ticket. The bag
containing the missing property was
aIterward pinned inside a skirt and
hung by her side in the berth. In the
morning, when the train reached Chi
cago, dozens of passengers and the
employees OF the car company were
searched before they were allowed to
leave the car.
Detectives have worked on the case
without success. The car company
sent word to-day that their resources

Ask Hungarian Delegate TO Inter-

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 13.-The Slavonic
societies of the United States to-day
presented 10 Count Apponyi, chairman
Of the Hungarian delegation to the
st. Louis interparliamentary peace
congress, a memorial written in Eng
ish, French and Hungarian, calling
upon him 10 take note Of the liberal
institutions of America and allow
their spirit so TO Undue him that re-
turning 10 Hungary, he may act as
the apostle of a new gospel Of free
dom for the oppressed Slavaks there.
Anthony-S. Ambrose, president Of
the National Slavonic Society of the
United States, one Of the signers of
the memorial, says that the sole OBJ
1ect Of addressing ii to Count Ap-
ponyi was in the hope that il might
insure at least = modicum of the bet
terment of the condition Of their kins-
men on the other side.
We believe Count Apponyi to be
a man of liberal views" said Ambrose,
and we feel convinced that his con-
tact with Americas institutions will
clearly see the monstrous injustice
with which his Government has been
treating the Slavaks."
