ACCIDENT NEARLY FATAL.
GEORGE Garfield, Of Grundy Center
1nron From Moving Train.

snecjal to Times Republican.
Grundy Center, July 31.-George
Garfield was nearly killed by the ROCK
Island at Garrison, last evening he
left here on the 1927 train. attempting
to steal a ride to Cedar Rapids. He
seems to have been holding on to the
outside of a closed vestibule between
two Of the passenger coaches and to
have passed safely in that way until ne
reached Garrison, where upon leaning
out to see where he was he was hit by
a cattle guard and thrown from the
train. His legs were both broken; his
shoulder badly broken; his head bad
ly injured and it feared that he Is hurt
internally He was taken to Garrison
and cared for as best as could be by
the physicians. His exact condition
can not be told for some time yet.
Will Sitter, who was recent
~ tried and acquitted In this
county for numbering his young
wife, has returned from an ex-
tended trip through the west. About
month ago. 1t was reported that he
had married his wife's cousin, whose
name had been linked with his in con-
nection with the murder, and who was
very, bitter in her testimony at he
time of the trial. This report seems
to ha. e been entirely without founda-
ton as Mr.. Slifer has not remarked.

Grinnell, July 31.-Did he really do
it? is the question which one usually
has to answer if he ventures to tell
of a. runaway which occurred here Fri
day night, and as a rule when answer
ed in the affirmative the other fellow
proves to be from Missouri. About
midnight a horse belonging to Luke
Spooner farmer about three miles
south of town, broke away from the
hitch rail east of the park and no trace
of him could be found until morning
when a man near telephoned that he
had him in his barn, and both horse
and buggy were all right. But the Pc
culiar part of it Is that he made the
entire trip on the railroad, crossing a
trestle work at least 100 feet long over
Little Bear creek, to say nothing OF
all manner Of cattle guards. People
along the last end of the trip including
the trestle work We're favored early
Saturday morning with the unusual
spectacle of a freight train being pi-
loted by horse and buggy, and the
pilot, 1t goes without saying, was doing
his best to make UP time.
The fact that he crossed the trestle
work without breaking any bones
seems incredible; but he did 1t in spite
OF the fact that he pulled of a couple
OF shoes by catching them under the
sides of the cross ties.
AS yet no old timer has been able to
recall anything appropriate that hap
pened, say. in the f1fties.

Escape From Officers
FRAUDULENT BANKING CHARGED
His Arrest Was an outsrowth of the
Failure Of the Dow City Exchange
Bank and the Green Cattle Company

For Many Months.

Dow City, July 31.-Considerable in
terest is manifested here in dispatch
from Winters, California, which says
HI. S. Green, under arrest there on
charge of fraudulent banking at Dow
City, Iowa, and held on his own rec
ognition, broke his parole and left the
country. 1t is supposed that he went
to Portland. Ore. An Iowa officer ar
rived at Sacramento Saturday to Sc
cure extradition papers for Green, who
was president of the Dow City Ex-
change bank, when it failed in April,
1904 He has been a resident Of CALI
fornia for eight months and Of Winters
for three months.
On April 6, 1904, the Exchange Bank
of Dow City closed its doors and was
placed in the hands Of a receiver, the
bank having failed for something over
100000. III. S. Green was the presi-
dent and owner Of the bank, it being
a private institution. Soon after the
bank closed it's doors III. S. Green dis
appeared and has not been seen or
heard of until recently, unless it was
that he kept up secret correspondence
with intimate friends and relatives.
The November grand jury of 1904
found an indictment against Green and
the authorities made a diligent search
for him, and 1t was not until last week
that the authorities were notified that
letters in the handwriting of II. 8.
Green, had been sent from Winters,
Cal.
A description and photograph Of H.
S. Green were at once mailed to the
chief of police at Winters, and in a
short time the authorities at Denison
were notified that the much coveted
man was at Winters, Cal. Requisttion
papers were at once secured and W. j
McAhren, deputy United States mar
shall, OF Denison, was sent to California
to bring him back.
The people Of Dow City were up in
arms after n 8. Green left the state,
and have been making many criticisms
because he was not sooner brought
back to Iowa to be punished according
to law, but so well did Green keep his
whereabouts a secret that 1t Was not
until about fifteen months after his
escape that his hiding place was known
to the Crawford county authorities.
n. S. Green is q brother Of Judge
Green, one of the district judges OF
Iowa, located at Audubon, and he Is a
brother-in-law Of Attorney Sweeley,
of Sioux City, who are said to have lost
heavily in the failure.

tary, the latter made no mention OF
such an intention.

snecial to Times-Repuplican.

Special to Times-Republican.
Ida Grove, July 31.-The question OF
churches using Rockefeller's gifts mas
made the discussion of the subject by
tho leaders of the church of much In
terest.
Bishop Morrison in sermon re-
Gently delivered, preaching upon the
book of Job, referred to one Oh the
problems which confronts men IN all
ages. namely: Is wealth and success
test of godliness? He said: The
richest man in the world, even II ne
processes to be Christian and goes
about with Bible under his arm does
not escape judgment upon his life. HIS
wealth is no guarantee that God has
accepted or approves of him. HIS
wealth may be the mark of great abii-
ity to organize and manipulate, coup
led with greed selfshness and 1nhu-
mainly. 1t is indeed strange thing
and possibly an indictment of modern
church teaching that a man protesting
to be disciple and servant of Jesus
Christ should have developed a system
in which it hard to see any evidence
that our Lord declared as the sum of
the law manward: Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as myself" or any traces
OF the spirit of Christs life and
teaching, ''whosoever will be a
chief among you, let him be your
servant even as the son Of man came,
not to be ministered unto, but to min
lister, and to give his life a ransom
for many"
Mr. Rockefeller may not be greater
sinner in his methods of money max
ing than thousands of men, but in him
the selfshness and inhumanity of mod
ern methods of doing business are
clearly mated, and what in many men,
because not clearly seen and because
the results are not SO apparent, have
been passed over with mild criticism or
critative questioning, are in Mr..
Rockefeller's unsparingly condemned
because they stand out il all their
hideous results In him they are clear
ly discerned to be utterly contrary to
the spirit OF, Christ. The condemna-
ton of Mr.. Rockefeller is the condem-
nation of his life principles and his
methods. Such condemnation visits
upon all who live successful lives by
the same principle and use the same
methods. At any rate, we no longer
hesitate to bring any man, no matter
what his profession or success, to the
bar of judgment. This is a hopeful
sign of the times.
