SPECIAL TRAIN FOR BALLARD.

Northwestern Honors Brakeman Vino
Was Killed in Their Service.
Special to Times-hepub;ican.
Webster City, June PA funeral
train over the Northwestern line
passed thru the city this morning en-
route from Eagle Grove to Toledo.
It carried the remains of b. L. Bal
lard, a, brakeman, killed Monday even
ing at Alton. The train was made up
Of three coaches and beside the corpse
carried about seventy-flve Of the de-
ceased mans trainrnen friends and the
family. The engine which pulled the
train was wrapped in mourning.
Ballard was the only support Of a
mother and several younger brothers
and sisters. His home was in Eagle
Grove. He was killed while making
a coupling. The cars he was attemp-
ting to couple were eastern cars of an
old type fitted with "mankillers," as
the trainn1en call them. These are
iron projections from the end OF the
car to prevent the cars smashing to-
gether when they come together hard
enough to force the coupling irons
back far enough so that the cars
otherwise would meet. Ballard did not
notice these irons and was caught be-
tween them. He walked to the hotel
after the accident, but died there al
most Immediately. Cars fitted with
these irons are curiosity now for
they have long since been abandoned
by most lines. Hence Ballard was
not looking for them.

Winnebago,Who Has Been Visit
ing at the Tama Reservation
Loses Life In Iowa River
HIS; DEATH WAS MYSTERIOUS
Fact That All the Indians Are Good
Swimmers and Perfectly at Home
in the Water Leads to Belief That
His Death Was Caused BY Foul
Play.

Tama, June 22.-Information has
just reached the city that a Winnebago
India was drowned in the Iowa river
at the reservation. His body was re-
covered late yesterday afternoon. Ru-
more are rife which seem to be corrob-
Grated by the intense don't know"
among the Indians, that there was foul
play in the matter. 1t is very rarely
that an Indian browns, as they are all
expert swimmers from their early
youth.
United States Indian Agent Malin is
at the reservation trying to ascertain
the bottom facts about the matter.
Those that were best informed in re-
gard to the death of the Indian girl,
Nellie, last March, have anticipated
that other sudden and perhaps unex-
plainable deaths would occur ere long
at the reservation, and it seems that
their expectations have been realiz-
ed. A thorough investigation will be
made.

Force OF Imagination AS ExempllneO
In Dentists Chair.
Dentists have splendid opportunity
Of studying the power Of imagination.
A New York practitioner by way Of IL
lustration told reporter about one Of
his women patients. She entered, ac-
companied by her husband, and, point
ing to her swollen face. asked the
dentist to extract the offending TOOTH
He placed her in the chair and, taking
the small hand glass which dentists
use, put it into her mouth for the pur-
pose of examining the molar which
was to be extracted
The glass had no sooner touched the
tooth than she uttered frightful
scream anu, bouncing out Of the chair,
rushed out into the waiting room, cry
ing that her jaw was broken. The
united efforts of her husband and the
dentist were for some time unable to
persuade her that the tooth was not
extracted and that she could not pos
sibly have been hurt. After examining
her mouth with the aid OF glass she
finally became convinced that the tooth
was still in its place. Taking her seat
in the chair again, she submitted to the
operation OF extracting the tooth With
out murmur and expressed her sur
prise thatsthe pain was SO slight.

Iowa City, June 22.-Judge o. A.

legislature, now of the district court,
of Johnson and Iowa counties. has
ruled on the noted saloon case of John
Z. Wilson, appellee, VS.. c. II. +.
Bohstedt. appellant in Iowa county,
involving numerous questions concern
ing the sufficiency of statement OF
general consent. The court decided
that the statement was insufficient
and that the board of supervisors ac-
ton was worthy of setting aside and
annulment. The costs of the case We're
assessed to Wilson, the saloonist
The court declared that the state
ment of consent, after the rejection of
535 names and the withdrawal of SO,
was short by 416 names-that is, it
lacked the 60 per cent of the total
number of voters in the county. The
needed number was 1850, or IS per
cent of 4,51S.
AS to Oral Evidence.
The court ruled out oral evidence to
explain discrepancies between the
names on the petition and the nam IS
on the poll lists He cited, as a basis

Deemer which he described Gn the
case of Porter VS.. Butterfleld) as ''the
latest as well as the most complete
exposition of the method of counting
names upon a petition of consent that
has been given by our supreme court"
The court examined more than 5000
names, written in German, American,
Irish, Bohemian, Belgian and Scandi-
navian scripts. Where legible and
where the names and letters cores
pended substantially with those on the
poll books, Judge Byington counted
them. About fifty names We're counted,

mark, and these were without

tation, and added: 1--WE are much in
doubt as to the correctness of tn

Wants New MuIct Law.
Judge Byington closed his decision
with a call for new mulct law pro4
vision. He says:
ANY criticism of the mulct law
would probably be illtimed but we
feel convinced that any legislative
committee passing thru the ordeal
of mulct petition contest would
plainly observe the general weakness
as plan to ascertain the wishes of
the people of a municipality in re-
spect to the sale of Intoxicating liquors
