Des Moines Woman Fears Tesins'<y

A letter received by City Marshal
Nicholson from Mrs. H. Drehaff. 426
Southeast Sixth street, Des Moines,
states that she fears Tesinsky, the Chi
cago man who was killed on the Great
Western few days ago, was her hus-
band, who disappeared several weeks
ago, and of whom she had no trace.
She gave description OF her husband,
which tallies in some respects with
that Of the dead man. She felt conf
dent it was her husband from the de-
scriptions she had read Of him in the
newspapers. The woman is, OF course,
mistaken, as Tesinsky's identity has
been firmly established.

the only doubter, and for his benefit,
and also that the other members might
understand fully the exact situation,
told Of the company's business here and
what it meant to the town. He referred
to the market created in MarshalltoWn
for hogs, the fact that most of the
company's product was bought within
radius of 100 miles and that the com
pany always maintains a liberal mar
ket. He considered that the fact that

Mr.. r. L. Boyd, of London, the prin-

recently made an investment to Tor

their views as favorable to the PROPOSE

Geo. w. Pierce Will Run For Senator.

/ George w. Pierce, manager of Fhe
/ Brattieboro Retreat farm, has an
nounced to his friends this week his
| decision to become candidate for The
nomination for senator from this dis
trict at the republican county con-
vention. Mr.. Pierce has been earn
either for town representative or for
senator and his decision will be re-
ceived with great satisfaction by a
large number of personal and poll
tical friends. 1t is unlikely that there
will be any serious opposition to his
nomination within the party as he is
universally respected by both local
option men and prohibitionists. He
frankly admits without reference to
the merits of either system of control
of the liquor traffic that the present
law should be left on the statute
books and given a reasonable trial.
This is the attitude of all but the
most intolerant of anti-local- option
lists and will receive universal COM
mendation.
The election of senators this fall
is of especial Importance as upon the
senate will depend the continuance
for another two years of the local OPP
ton law or its repeal. The house
will probably as usual be opposed to
local option. Mr.. Pierce's attitude in
defining his position on this question
is sure to meet with public approval,

Gle met Sunday afternoon. The
occasion was the annual election
of officers. Two candidates for
each Office appeared, but the pres
idency was the only spirited con-

cast, the first resulting in a tie
vote, and the second showing a
majority of one. The officers
chosen all have the interest of the
circle at heart, and will do all in
their power to sustain it's present
high tone and useful spirit.
Owing to the fact that the cleo
tions consumed considerable time,
but three papers were read at Sun
days meeting. They were, how.
ever, of unusual interest. The
program opened with a class re-
port entitled, Optical Illusions, y
one of the best papers read before

trated by drawings. A class re-
port on "Our Debt to the Tree, .

followed, and was in turn succeed
ed by a special paper entitled
