EVENTS OF A WEEK THROUGH.
OUT THE STATE.
Purpose of the Fiendish Murder of Mrs.
Harry MceIasson and Little
lola Mckim Is Still a
Mystery.

The purpose of the fiendish murder
OF Mrs. Harry McGlasson and little
lola McKim. by the woman's husband
at Frakerville, Ia, is still mystery
McGlasson visited Ted Halls home
and intimated that the children of his
wife by former husband were MAX
Ing life intolerable, and he intended to
kill himself. The matter was passed
off as joke, when Mrs. Hall threaten
ed to have him arrested.
The following day Mrs. McGlasson
went to visit her sister, Mrs. Neil Nc
Kim, after telling her husband about
it. He said he would come for her
later. Later he went, and, after
greeting all, pulled out revolver and
shot the two-year-old niece. Quickly
turning the gun on his wife he fatally
wounded her. Being satisfied the two
We're dead, he killed himself.
The murder of the babe appears to
have been wanton act Although
others were in the house, they were
not hurt.
McGlasson was forty-two years old,
and had been married but two years.
He was brother of James and Joe
McGlasson of Oskaloosa, and formerly
lived there. He had been out of work,
and was not well, and some attribute
the crime to dependency.

Romance Follows Wreck.

Shipwrecked at night off the coast
of Japan, and rescued from the waves
by the man whom she married three
days later, was the experience of Miss
Floy Donaldson of La Porte, Ia, who
was on her way to Seoul, Korea, as a
missionary. Miss Donaldson was on
board the steamship Anto Maru, when
the vessel ran onto rock during
dark, stormy night. The lifeboats had
been lowered, and twenty passengers,
including Miss Donaldson, had taken
their seats, when a half-crazed Korean
leaped from the steamer into the life
boat and capsized 1t, throwing all the
occupants into the sea. Another boat
was lowered, and Rev. Wade Rooms
rescued Miss Donaldson, half con-
scious, with Korean woman clinging
to her waist and Chinaman clinging
to the Korean woman. Three days
later Miss Donaldson and the man
were married.

FOR THE MURDER OF HIS WIFE.
Matthew Bodies Placed Under Arrest
at Oranqe City.

az SIaHSS Sity.
After battling in vain to save his
mother from the drunken frenzy of his
brutal father, the twelve-year-old son of
Matthew Bodies has furnished informa-
ton which caused the arrest of his
father on a charge of the murder of
Mrs. Bodies. According to the testi-
mony of the boy and his sixteen-year-
old sister, the man, who is a prosper
Gus Sioux county farmer, came home
drunk and berated his wife for paying
81 to church fund subscription which
he had made. Words led to blows. He
first choked and kicked the woman,

from him, dealt her powerful blow be-
tween the shoulders which caused her
to sink lifeless to the floor The chill
dren fed when the attack was begun,
but the young boy returned while it
was in progress and hacked the faith
er's leg with Ratchet. The man was
driven out of the room, and then hurled
stones through the window where the
woman was dead. The father babe the
children say nothing of the crime, and

suddenly died of heart disease. The
children broke down at the funeral and
told their story, which caused a post

doubt that the woman had been beaten
to death. AS it was known that Bodies
had previously beaten his wife and
children, his arrest Immediately fol-
lowed, and he was placed in the Or

Amende Honorable.

From authentic sources I learn that
the press report of the speech of Hon.
John Barrett, minister plenipotentiary
and envoy extraordinary, in which he
was represented as declaring in favor
Of throwing down the bars for the free
and unlimited entrance of Chinese cool
les, does him great injustice, and con-
seQuently my article pitching into him
tor so declaring was unwarranted. His
position really is to uphold the Chi
nese exclusion act as to coolies, but to
exercise a liberal policy as to the adj
mission Of Chinese students, ETC.,
which is quite different position from
that which he was represented by the
report Of his speech as occupying.
regard any man who advocates the
unlimited admission Of coolies as not
only the enemy Of our country, but as
the enemy of the Caucasian race and
Of Caucasian civilization, for our white
laborers cannot compete with coolies in
the difficult art Of starvation. All his
tory teaches that every great swarm
Of humanity has proceeded from Asia,
and the signs Of the times indicate that
the Japs and Chinese are preparing to
swarm once more. 1.-THE yellow peril"
Ia not mere Pigment of an inf1amed
Imagination, but is concrete fact, and
the chances are ten to one that during
this century all the white people on
the face Of the earth will have to line
hp together in self defense to fight the
fellow Asiatics.
Certainly in that view of the matter
England by her alliance, offensive and
defensive, with the Japs Is proving
herself traitor to the Caucasian race.
II the whole truth touching the Russo
Japanese war is ever made public it
will in all human probability be dis
covered that England urged on the
Japs in order that they might engage
the attention and energies Of Russia
while England gobbled Tibet. At any
rate, England is the only gamer by all
the blood and treasure expended in
that futile struggle. True, the Japs
gave the Russians an awful drubbing,
but all she has to show for it Is a debt
Of more than billion dollars, hundreds
Of thousands of graves, hundreds of
thousands Of cripples and half of
bleak and barren island not worth one
section Of farming land In Missouri.
Surely we have race troubles enough
IT our own now without adding to
them by admitting horde Of Chinese
eoolies to starve out our laborers.
Believing from the press reports that
Mr.. Barrett had gone over to the Chi
nese party, made the structures which
now say were unjust and hereby set
him right, so far as am concerned.
Mr.. Barrett is now at home on fur
Tough. If that is the proper word to use
In speaking Of diplomats, not because
be delights in playing truant, but be-
cause of the bad condition of his
health, brought about by long resi-
dence and arduous labors in tropical
regions, for the diseases indigenous to
the equatorial capitals are no respecters
Of persons, but attack diplomats as
well as the average run Of mortals. 1t
Is to be hoped that he will recover his
health, as a sound liver Is more to be
desired than high diplomatic post.

A Cancelled Appointment.


Uneasy lies the head that wears a
crown, likewise the head of him who
aspires to the presidency of this puis-
SAINT republic. 1t is well known-and
It's blessed fact-that the Republic
ans of Philadelphia are split into two
bitter factions, one headed by Mayor
John Weaver, the other by Israel Dur
ham. The latter faction claims to be
regular" and charge that the Weaver
faction are boilers. Weaver has en-
ragged the regulars" by turning
against them and depriving them of
much public money which they covet-
ed, by purging the voting lists of some
10000 bogus names and by doing
divers other reform stunts. It's war to
the knife and the knife to the hilt. No
quarter is expected, asked or given.
They are straining every nerve. The
Durham faction invited Senator Joseph
Benson Foraker Of Ohio to speak for
them. Now, it is understood generally
that the Durham Philadelphia machine
Is part and parcel Of the Penrose state
machine, which in times past has been
able to bestow the Republican delega-
ton upon whomsoever it pleased, and
that large, solid delegation looked very
tempting to the eyes Of ]. B. f., who
has his optic glued on the chair of
Washington and the mantle of Jeffer-
son and who knows that on account of
the age limit he must win in 1908 or
never. Consequently he accepted the
invitation, but SO soon as his accept
ance was bruited abroad reformers ey-
erywhere set up such an indignant
howl that he was afraid he would lose
more than he could gain, so he can
celed his engagement. 1t was stated in
connection Herewith that the president
resented Foraker's agreement to speak,
though how it happened to be any
part of his business it is difficult to see
or understand.
