Bio Stock Of instruments Must Go in
Ten Days-saIe Opens Tomorrow
Morning - Many Buyers Expected
EarIy-Expert Pianists From Cedar
Rapids to Demonstrate.

Beginning tomorrow morning the
great piano sale at the rooms recently
occupied by the Martin Piano company
will be on for ten days and there
promises to be something doing among
the musicians OF Marshalltown and
Marshall county. It has been known
for some time, in quiet way, that the
Martin company was not making any
great fortune" that there would come
a reckoning and that there would be
some fine instruments sold cheap, IL
all signs did not fail. Hence, many
people who have contemplated the pur-
chase of an instrument and would have
purchased long ago, have been holding
off, waiting till the time should come
when they could get real bargain.
That time has come and those peo-
pie are going to buy. So many inquir-
les have been made today about prices
that it is doubtful if the instruments
last longer than few days, II they
last half the allotted ten days, and
there. are half a hundred fine instru-
ments on the floor, too.
The instruments in this stock. every
one of them, are fine ones, the best
there is manufactured. Anyone who
knows anything about piano knows
the Kinlball company manufactures
nothing but the best, SO there will be
no opportunity Tor any one to be beat

Problem
JUDGES LOOK WITH FAVOR

Mayor mgledue has figured out "a
scheme that he thinks will solve the
prob1em now confronting the city, re-
nulting from the numerous suits to
condemn the Center street Iowa river
dam. Both Judge Caswell and Burn
ham look with favor ON the PROPOSE
tnon as made by the mayor. and 1t
looks as though there might be an ami
cable agreement reached, and all hti-
cation stopped where 1t is at the pres
mt time.
z Mr.. Ingledue's scheme is that the
city build at Center street q concrete
dam, equipped with flood gates, SO that
the water OF the river can be allowed to
now during the seasons OF extreme
high.water, and still be retained In dry
seasons, when it Is necessary, In order
to dnsuro q sufficient water supply, that
the gravel beds be Oiled with water.
Il TO build this concrete dam the city
would be compelled to meet an expen-

President Delivers Annual Address.
Judge Robinson's address, as presi-
dent, was masterpiece of thought on
the care and treatment of the criminal
by the state, his position at the head
of the state board of control having
afforded him an excellent opportunity
for the gaining of his knowledge. His
address, in part, was as follows:
"Tnis is an age of scientific enquiry.
We are not satisfied to continue the
methods Of our fathers without ques-
ton, but we must know If they are
the hest, if they accomplish the highest
attainable results, and we insist upon
achieving those results in the most in
telligent manner with the least ex-
pendlture of time and effort.

four cases opens UP a vista OF HUI
cation bill amounting to $53.636.
On top of this Mr.. Ingledue Now has
over 100 suits for Mr.. Northup to br1ns
which, of course, they do not expect to
try thruout the list.
Remembering that the city is under
contract to pay two attorneys 81, 200 for
appearance in the federal court TO lit1-
gate one case involving paving ON two
streets and also remembering That II
every one of the forty-four appear
cases should be tried and won the on
ly thing decided would be the conuro-
versy as between the property owner
and the city and that there would YET
lbe the claim of the paving company
against the city for the actual value OF
the paving to be litigated it viii! he
seen that when one of the lawyers
now employed by the city predicted
last spring that this thing has only
begun" he knew what he was talking
about. Furthermore there is Still
another set of suits to determine
whether the city can recover from the
property owner the actual value OF the
paving should the present assessment
he set aside and the paving company
recover from the city. Good lawyers
are ready to insist that it can.
In view Of all these possibilities
judge Burnham says this matter must
be settled out of court or the town will
be injured by endless litigation. The
committees now canvassing are asking
property owners to sign a power OF
attorney authorizing a citizens COM
nittee to settle for them out of court
provided the property owner is relieved
Of all costs and attorneys fees IN the
settlement. This committee proposes
to conduct it's negotiations publicly
and in constant consultation with
Judge Durham, in fact Judge Burn
ham drew the paper people are asked
to sign. N their efforts fail the merry
war will go on and the lawyers should
not complain.

because OF the dam. Even Il the city
should go on with the cases, and win
out ia the end. It would have to put At
least $1,000 into the present dam In
making 1t so that 1t would hold the
water back, and even then 1t would not
have flood gates.
s. Mayor Ingledue has seen different
members Of the council as to the pro-
position. and has assurances that they
WIN stand back Of him In the enter
prise. Judge Caswel1 has informed the
mayor that he believes the scheme an
excellent one, and Judge Durham also
thinks the plan will prove q happy So
luton Of the trouble. Both Judges. will
do ali in their power to bring the par
ties interested together.
Will Test Honesty Of Purpose.
Mayor IngleS Ne said, In speaking OF
the scheme: ~ le proposition that I
have made to Councilman John Sieg,
who ts acting as spokesman for the
property owners. will, in my opinion,
test the honesty OF purpose OF these
people bringing suit. IL all they want
is to have their land protected from
the high water, they will readily ac-
cept the proposition. 10 they do not
ACCEPT 1t, I will be satisfied In my own
mind that there is something else back
az the suits. AS far as am able TO
learn nearly all OF. the property owners
are anxious to reach some amicable
agreement, and think this proposition
Is indeed q happy solution. II they do
not agree to this there will be but one
thing for us to do. and that will 'oe to
Tight It to a finish.
To SEQ Effect Of Water Release.
Arrangements are being made where,

dam and watching the effect upon the

viii likely be done within a few days.
while It Is not presumed that the test

weather, It Is thought some indication
ean be had Of the general effect.

mitments to reformatories and penl-

vanced in it's treatment of criminals
Dean Gregory on Criminal Law Re-
form.
The principal address of the evening
was by Professor Gregory. His sub
ject, "Sir Samuel Rornilly and Criminal
Law Reform" gave his auditors, many
of them at least, but little idea OF the
trend of his remarks. He traced the
life of that great lawyer and states
man from his infancy to his grave;
told of how more than a century ago
he had begun the labor this associa-
ton is now endeavoring to keep up.
He told in graphic manned how his
subject had secured the adoption of
the first laws in England, doing away
with capital punishment for trivial Of
lenses; how he stood single-handed and
alone and secured the passage of laws
that were the first to break away from
paganistic and inhuman practices in
the treatment of criminals in all coun-
tries. Dean Gregory said a bloody law
is no deterrent to the criminal, that
it was no advantage to the society
generally, and that the only thing that
could raise standards was to properly
educate.
This Mornings Session.
The session opened this morning by
discussion of the paper read last
night by Dean Gregory. In this dis
cussion number took part. among
them being Chaplain Pickworth of the
penitentiary at Anamosa; Professor
F. C. Ensign, of Iowa City; Professor
Herriott, Of Drake University; Mrs.
Hills, Of Des Moines, and Mrs. Alice

Interesting Afternoon Ia Charge Of the
History Department.
The women's club held an Interest,"
ing meeting at its regular session
Wednesday afternoon. The history
department was in charge, and the
principal address Of the afternoon was
by Rev. William Pence James, rector
of ST. Paul's church, who spoke on
.arhe Ancient Jews" His address was
a very scholarly one, and was heartily
enjoyed by all. To the members OF
the department the talk was Of espe-
cial interest, as the department is
studying Jewish history this year The
program for the afternoon opened
with a delightful piano solo by Miss
woodward of Delphos, Kas.
The club had number of out-of-
town guests Wednesday, and among
them were Mrs. Isaac Hills of Des
Moines, and Mrs John I. Mullany OF
Dubuque, who are In attendance at the
state charities conference. Mrs.
Hills addressed the club briefly on
rhe Juvenile court law, and Mrs. Null
lany talked on child labor. Mrs. 7. j.
Fletcher also spoke briefly.
In closing the program Mrs j. HI.
Egermayer and Miss Neva Bentley
gave a charming piano duet, and Miss
Sophia johnson a most pleasing violin
solo. Miss Bentley played Miss john
sons accompaniment.

greater progress been made during the
last twenty-five years than in that re-
lating to penology. Under the old sys-
TENS little thought was given the indi-,
yidual until he committed some offense
against the law. He was then seized
and, if convicted, was given a measure
Of punishment thought to be adequate
to his offense, and calculated to deter
him and others from committing other
offenses No attempt was made to
train him or to reform him save thru
fear. He was treated as an outcast,
subjected to harsh discipline, and he
left the prison walls hating the law
and its officers, fitted with a desire
for vengeance
"It was finally discovered that Sc
we're punishments neither prevent
crime nor reform the criminal; that
about the worst use which can be
made of a man is to shut him up in
prison when neither his own welfare
nor that Of the public demands 1T;
that it is more economical in time ana
money and better for the state to pre-
vent the offense of the man by so
training the child that the necessity or
impulse to violate the law shall not
exist. If this fails and the law be
violated we should study the
crirninal, ascertain his history,
heredity, character, former environ
meat and abilities and then subject
him to such treatment as will erad1-
cate or repress the evil and develop
the good. If illiterate he should be
required to study; if ignorant OF use
full work he should be required to learn
a vocation for which he is adapted.
He should be compelled to acquire
habits of industry and made to respect
the law He should be kept in prison
ul.ii all this is accomplished ana De
made to know that the ending OF his
Imprisonment depends upon himself.
When released 1t should be on condi-
ton that he shall lead an upright lifa,
and be returned to prison if he does not.
If it appear that he will not be law
abiding if released he should be kept
in prison. The system thus briefly
outlined has been adopted in whole

Production Of Poverty.
The feature of the morning session
was the address of ID. A. Glascof, gen.
eral secretary Of the Associated Char
tiles in Des Moines. He had for his
subject Some Conditions Producing
Poverty in Cities" In his work with
the Associated Charities in cities like
Des Moines he has acquired wealth
OF knowledge relating to the poor,
their conditions and the cause leading
to their conditions. He showed that
the poor man with large family today
is the father Of those who, in most
instances, will be the heads of poor
families in the future, because, to sup
port the family now the boys and girls
are taken from school and made to do
the work of men and women, thus being
broken down physically before they
reach the estate Of men and women.
The tenement houses, he claimed, were
breeders of poverty as they are not
provided with such necessary accom-
modations as to admit the occupants
to conserve their energy. He thought
the general public should look more
to the construction of these buildings,
that there should be legislation along
that line He deprecated the idea Of
the poor building their own homes, be-
lieying that lack of funds caused them
to build without adequate capacity and
conveniences.
His address was quite generally dis
cussed, all seeming to view the mat
tiers handled in the same light as did
Mr.. GLASGOW.
