CRISIS AT SHELL ROCK.
Local Health Board Defies State 2oare
CT Health.

Des Moines, May pa few days
ago the state board of health was no
tilted of the presence Of disease
among the school children of Shell
Rock, which had the appearance OF
the dreaded scarlet fever. DR.. +. w.
Powers of Waterloo, member of the
board from the Tenth district, was
ordered to investigate and make a
report. He found five cases, which he
pronounced scarlet fever. A petition
which was sent to the board of health
stating that the local board was neg.
lecting its duty was taken up, and the
local health physician who had been
in office seventeen years, DR.. w. II.
Smith, was Immediately derosed.
DR.. Smith pronounced the disease
a rash. DR.. Powers saw in it scarlet
fever, and, with DR.. Linn of Des
Moines, who accompanied him on the
trip, took things in his own hands.
Dr. o. Coffee Of Waverly was ap.
pointed health physician and he i'm.
mediately placed quarantine cards up
on the houses where the cases could
be found.
The ire of the people was at once
aroused and the school board against
whom much of the attack of the ply
sicians was directed, declared pub
licly, individually, and severally, that
they would use physical force in re.
lieving the town of all the doctors
present if they didn't Immediately take
a move on themselves. They threat
ened to at once drive Dr. Coffee out

school house.
DR.. Coffee afterward tried to fumi-
gate the houses where the disease
was present, but was driven from
every one save two, where he was al
lowed entrance and proceeded to fumi-
gate them according to the orders OF
the state board.
These, however, were but the finder
which was being piled uron the kind
ling flames of public opinion.
Friday night the excitement reached
its zenith when DR.. Powers and DR..
Linn were stopping at a local hotel
there. While in their rooms the town
had become so aroused that a mob
of over 100 people sqrged into the
hotel building, calling the doctors
names and making many threats of
personal violence. The mob, made
up, not of the riff-raff Of the place,
but of the promir 2nt citizens, became
so belligerant that the two doctors
secured a livery rig and drove to
Waverly, a few miles away.
The physicians at once telephoned
Attorney General Mullan to send
armed deputies to Shell Rock and to
see that the rules of the state board
of health are carried out. The attor-
ney general will today make a per-
sonal investigation. Superintendent
Sharpe of the schools has ordered
them closed in accordance with the
orders of the state board of health.

JOHANN HOCA
FACES GALLOWS
The Multi Bigamist is Found
Guilty By Chicago
Jury.
JURY RECOMMENDS DEATH
Hoch Accused of Murder of His Last
Wife-Jury Reaches Its Decision in
Less Than Half an Hour-The First
Ballot Was Unanimous.

Chicago May 20.-Johann Hoch,
who by his own confession is several
lines a bigamist, and who is charged
by the police with having married at
east forty women in the past fifteen
years, was found guilty of murder yes
terday, and the death sentence recon-
nended, by jury in Judge Kersten's
court. The crime for which Hoch will
be led to the gallows was the murder
Of his last wife, Mrs. Welcker Hoch.
Hoch had been married to this woman
but few days when she became sud-
denly i'll and died. He then formed
an alliance with the sister OF the
dead woman, and securing the latter's
money, fed from Chicago. This wo-
man, in quest of revenge, notified the
police that Hoch had poisoned her
sister and search for Hoch was be-
gun. He was found two weeks later
in New York. and brought back to
Chicago and confronted by several of
his supposed wives. During the trial
expert testimony was offered by the
state that Hoch had poisoned the wo-
man by administering arsenic.
Yesterdays verdict was one of the
quickest on record in Cook county, the
jury having reached a decision in less
than half an hour. Three ballots were
taken. The first ballot was unanimous
as to Hoch's guilt, and then a ballot
followed as to the punishment to be
inflicted. This ballot showed ten in
favor of the death penalty and two for
life Imprisonment. A third ballot re-
suited in the twelve jurymen voting
for the death penalty.

Chicago, May 21.-The strike Of the
teamsters, instead of being declared
off, will be spread to greater proper.
tons. This was decided last night by
the members Of the transfers joint
council, which was in session until
midnight.
The council met at o'clock to hear
the report of the negotiations that had
been in progress with the employers
throughout the day. They agreed to
all the stipulations Of the employers
with the exception of that which de-
clared that the drivers of the ex-
press companies should not be taken
back. This was the rock upon which
the peace programme was wrecked,
and after several hours of debate it
was decided that the transfers I'M
ion could not leave the express driv-
ers to make lone fight, but must
stand by them. 1t was decided to call
off all the negotiations and prepare
for further fight.
The methods of the unions will not
differ from those which they have
pursued thus far in the strike. They
will continue the boycott against the
houses where the strikes have been
held during the last month and if
any of their members are discharged
for refusing to make deliveries all of
the drivers employed by that house
will be called on strike at once. The
first effect of the sIread of the strike
will be in the building trades and
trouble is looked for in this direction
tomorrow The lumbermen's associ-
alton has declared that they would
make deliveries to boycotted firms
and would insist upon their drivers
taking goods where they were ordered
to take them. This means a strike Of
all the union men employed by the
lumbermen's association, II umbering
about 1000. 1t is expected that the
members of the Team Owners asso-
citation, which does the greater part
of the hauling for the railroads in the
city. and which has for several days
threatened to take sides with he
employers association, will also be
compelled to come out for deliveries
to the boycotted houses, and that all
of their men will be out within a few
days after, the commencement of next
week. They employ about 5000 team
sters.
Sheriff Barnett says it will be
necessary to call for state troops.

WORTH REMEMBERING.

There are three entirely different
kinds Of ingredients used In making
the three different varieties OF baking
powders on the market, viz:-Q) Min
eral-Acid or Alum, (2) Bone-Acid or
Phosphate, and t3) Cream Of Tartar
made from grapes. 1t is important,
from the standpoint of health, to
know something about these ingredi-
ents, and which kind is used In your
baking powder.
"a Mineral-Acid, or Alum, is made
from kind of clay. This Is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution product is obtained
which Is alum. Alum is cheap; costs
about two cents pound, and baking
powder made with this MineralAcid
sells from 10 to 25c. pound.
(2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, is the
basis of phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described in
the patents issued to large manufac-
turer of phosphate powder. The U.
S. Patent Office Report gives full
and exact description, but the follow.
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones, after being ground.
are put into freshly diluted oil of Wit
riol and with continual stirring and
in the following proportion" etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak.
ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents pound.
(3) Cream of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes, and flows with the juice
from the press in the manufacture Of
wine. After the wine is drawn off the
tartar is scraped from the cask, boil
ed with water, and crystals of Cream
of Tartar, white and very pure, sepa.
rate and are collected. 1t differs in
no respect from the form in which ii
originally existed in the grape. Cream
of Tartar, then, while the most expen
sive, is the only ingredient that
should be used in baking powder to
act upon the soda, as its wholesome
ness is beyond question. Cream of
Tartar baking powders sell at about
40 to SO cents pound.
Such are the facts, and every one.
careful of the health of the family,
should remember this rule:-Baking
powders selling from 10 to % cents a
pound are made of Mineral-Acids;
those selling from 20 to 80 cents OF
Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to &c
cents of Cream of Tartar made from
grapes.

C. T. JONES FEE CASE NEXT
State Claims About So, 900 Fees From
Hm-He Was Clerk of the Supreme
Court and Reserved Right to Retain
Part of Copying Fees of His Office

Des Moines, May 19.-It developes
that at the same time that the state
executive council recently urged the
LATE Young case to trial, it requested
the attorney general also to push the
Jones case to early adjudication. This
was the action brought to recover
from c. T. Jones, former clerk of the
supreme court, about $4,000 which he
had secured by furnishing copies of
supreme court opinions to publishing
companies for semi-official reports.
1t was the theory, and the practice
of the clerks OF the supreme court
from time immemorial, to make cop
les of opinions and furnish them to
publishers and pocket the proceeds.
The law provided that when certified
copies were made the proceeds
should go to the state treasury. Clerk
Jones and his predecessors scrupu-
lousy followed the provisions Of the
law in this respect.
But the copies furnished to the pub
fishing concerns were not certified,
it is claimed by Clerk Jones, and
therefore he, like his predecessors,
was entitled to the proceeds OF this
line of labor. The theory of the
state, however, is that the clerk
could not make any copies of opin-
ions which were not, in law, certified,
and therefore the state is entitled to
the proceeds of the sale of the cop-
les to publishing concerns.
The case has been pending for
long time. The controversy was be-
gun away back in the time of Treas
urer of State Herriott, who demanded
that Mr.. Jones account to the state
for these fees. Examination of the
office was made and suit was or
dered brought against the clerk. The
matter has hung fire ever since, but
the present executive committee de-
cided some time ago that the cases
ought to be pressed to final adjudica-
ton, in the interests Of the state and
of the persons against whom the
claims are made.

Council Bluffs, May 22.-Charles
Bowen, a resident of Burlington, was
struck by a passenger train on the
Northwestern at street crossing in
this city and thrown a distance of
twenty feet. His nose was broken
and he was bruised in different parts
of his body, but he escared any frac-'

After the accident, Bowen was so
badly dazed that he could not remem-
Der his name for a time. A Fedora
ton of Labor card was found in his
pocket, and when his name was read
from it he remembered who he was.
He had been to Nebraska and was on

This is the time Of year when the

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Material and New Ideas for the
Decoration of Homes.

The styles of home decorations have
completely changed in the last few
years, and it is pleasant to say that
they have changed for the better.
Time was when we hung monstrous
patterns printed on paper against our
walls, and considered them more or
less pleasantly. 1t would hardly be fair
to say that we considered them beau
tiful or artistic. But they were the
vogue and were put on. The time
has come when, with our better meth
DDS for interior decoration, better eff
fects can be secured.
In wall coverings, whether they be
of paint, or of kalsomine, or of Ala
bastine-whatever the material used
to cover the wall-the thing desired is
that which has the greatest covering
power, Us well as permanency and
beauty of color. Alabastine, wall
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means hard white rocks
the ideal covering for wall.
The most beautiful wall decorations
in the world are those which are laid
on with the brush. The mural designs
in our large public buildings, and the
frescoed designs in the large cathe.
drals and churches, have a perma-
nency and an art of which wall paper
is but cheap imitation. These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach of the every
day home. They can be done with
Alabastine, which is permanent in its
coloring. 1t does not rub off, and IL
has the soft effect of pastelle.
great many people defer the re-
decorating of their rooms not only
because of the expense but because
of the discomfort of it. With Alabas-
tine there need be no discomfort and
there can be no muss, fer all that is
needed is to lay sheet or canvas on
the floor, have your man come in with
a pail, make the solution and simply
brush it on the wall. That is all there
is to it, and the room is perfectly
clean and thoroughly renovated.

GETS NAVAL cADETSHlP.
Smith Thomas Will Ee Named From
Tenth District.

Carroll, May 22.-Simth Thomas,
son of G. w. Thomas, auditor of the
Green BAY Lumber company of this
city and former clerk of the courts of
Louisa county, has received word from
Judge J. P. Conner of Denison that he
had successfully passed an examination
for a naval cadetsnip in the naval
school at ANNAPOLIS, Maryland.
Smith Thomas is nineteen years old
and is a member of the senior class of
the Carroll high school that will grad
uate this spring.
He has always been an enthusiastic
admirer of naval architecture, and eX-
pressed his desire to his parents to
compete for the honors, and arrange
ments were made to carry out his
wishes. At the conclusion of the eX
animation it was noticed that Smith
Thomas of Carroll had the highest
mark. He represented the Carroll
high school at the inaugural ceremon-
les of President Roosevelt last March.
The Thomas family came to this city
a little over two years ago from
Wapello, Iowa.
