The Whips Finale.

After languishing in the county
Jail nearly four months, I'D. Whips.
the ex-city clerk of Oelwein. had a
hearing Monday. 1t has been claimed
that he was defaulter, but his books
and accounts were so muddled nobody
could tell the extent of the deficiency
and he himself was not sure OF it. So
he appeared and offered to plead guilty
of being short 500. The county at
torney was willing to compromise by
calling it $500. Judge Fellows con-
cluded to examine the testimony be-
fore the grand jury. after which he
called MP Whips and announced that
there was not sufficient evidence to
warrant his indictment, that the grand
jury had Numbered. but under his
plea of guilty there was no alter
native but TO sentence him to the
penitentiary for three months. 1t was
a surprising end to the farce that has
been played in Oelwein for year or
more. West Union Gazette.

ing is the usual evening pastime and
