WIFE vs.. GAMBLERS
Wife Of Man. Who Lost $4,000 in
Sioux City Gambling House, Wants
Latter Enjoined From Conducting
a Public Nuisance.

Specia! to Tunes Republican
Sioux City, oct. 16.-Mrs. Bessie
Becker wife of Theodore Becker, .mer-
chant tailor, has served official notice
on Magner & Walsh, to appear in the
district court October 10, to show
cause why they should not be enjoined
from conducting public nuisance, viz.
a gambling house. Becker is said to
have lost about $4,000 in Sioux City
gambling houses. Practically all the
money he got from the insurance
companies for the fire which destroyed
his store andt stock went across the
green tables. The wife claims part Of
the money was hers and proposes to
force the gamblers to return it or close
their places. The gamblers, who pay
licenses into the city treasury propose
to stand pat" The action against
Magner & Welsh is only the first of
other actions which Mrs. Becker de-
clares she will bring. She is the
daughter Of the late Joseph Sohulem,
who was one OF the wealthiest men In
Sioux City.

BIG GIFT TO AMEs
State College to Receive Large Sum,
Probably $4,000 From the Estate
Of G. w. Gait, an Alumnus Who Be-
came Famous as an Engineer.

Des Moines, Oct. 16.-George Will
lam Gait, the famous dredging en-
gineer. who died in Brooklyn this
week and whose remains We're turned
over to the physicians at Bellevue hos
pltal for scientific study at his own
request left in his last bequest a pro-
vision which will bring about $175,-
900 to Iowa State college at Ames. Gait
was an alumnus Of Iowa State college.
In 1882 he passed out Of the institution
q poor man well equipped for the flu
ture,, and, In few short years he
amassed a fortune. The estate will
net s35O,O00, according to best esti-
mates, and this Is in the custody of
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, the wife,
famed because Of her great activity In
equal suffrage work. AT the time of
her death one-half of the estate goes
to Ames college. AS Mrs. Gait, for
merly Miss Carrie Lane, was also a
student Of Ames college, there Is every
reason to believe that she will do all
in her. power to keep the estate intact
and leave for her alma mater as large
a sum as she can, thus carrying out
her husbands last desire.
Cats Wonderful Career.
George Gait was raised on a farm
near Westside, Iowa. His father had a
small place, but was not able to pay
Georges expenses through school, The
Young man worked part of! the year to
get cash to pay for his tuition and then
worked on the college campus milking
cows and doing other chores to pay for
his board and room rent. He was a
born engineer. It was In him to dig
up the secrets of mathematics and un-
derstand lines and circles and macahin-
cry. He was encouraged iby Professor
Stanton, for whom he had the highest
regard, and in 1882 walked out of the
college with a diploma. The same year
Barney Marsh, the bridge engineer of
Des Moines, procured his sheepskin-
Miss Lane, who afterwards became
Mrs. Gait, following the demise Of her
first husband, Mr.. Chapman, was a
student at Ames the same year, but did
not graduate. Following Cats grad
uation at Ames he secured employment
along with his friend, Barney Marsh,
with the King Bridge Company, Of
Cleveland, o., and was stationed un-
der George E. King of Des Moines in
the local office. The rise Of both
Marsh and Gait in the bridge business
was rapid.
It was THE request of George Gait
that his remains be given to physicians
and scientists for whatever dissection
they deemed necessary to gain knowl
edge from his case. Mr. Gait had been
receiving treatment for many diseases,
all Of which doctors now say existed
in his system. 1t has been discovered
that the pancreas was so atropf1ied
that it could not perform it's proper
functions for months. Those who were
present said that it was an unpre-
cedented condition SO far as they knew
and expressed surprise that the pa
tient could have lived SO long In such
a state.
In accordance with the terms of the
peculiar testament the body was ex-
amined in the .dissecting room of the
New York university and Bellevue
Hospital Medical school, where it had
been taken after elaborate funeral GER
emonies.

the outcome Of all the games can be
pretty accurately predicted Drake
should win both against Des Moines
College and Grinnell by good scores.
Ames will probably dispose Of Simp-
son easily while Iowa stands little
chance of defeating the Gophers.
Among the minor contests Normal
should have the better of the argu-
ment with Cornell and Coe will have
little trouble with Parsons College.
