Iowa City, Oct 26.-The local type

There Is more job printing handled
in Iowa City than any place Of its sizs
in the state, and as result there are
five offices employing from five to fiji
teen men out for the work. Until
within the last two mon Tbs the work
has been equitably distributed among
the different plants when the other
job printers found that one of their
number was getting all o. the big jobs
at a price that was just little be-
low what the work could be profltably

ton that followed 1t was found that the
type on all OF these big jobs was being
set in Cedar Rapids on new type
setting machine that has recently been
installed there and that only the press
work was being done in Iowa City
The matter was called to the atten-

DESERTED HIS FAMILY
Seymour Mans Secret Is Revealed by
His Marriage to Girl With Whom
He Is Alleged to Have EIoped Years
Ago from Ohio.

Ago from ONO.
cense has been issued at Corydon, the
county seat Of Wayne county, to
George M. Wilson, aged Is years, and
Miss Rebecca Farmer, aged 60. The
return on the license has not been
made as yet, but it is thought that the
couple was married Immediately. This
is single chapter in story Of do
nestle trouble that Is one Of the most
unusual that has come to light in
many years.
Several years ago Mr.. Wilson came
to Seymour, accompanied by the wo-
man who was supposed to be his wife
and who herself supposed that she was
legally married to him. In few years
a daughter was born to them. Mr..
Wilson was hard working man and
has laid by some money for his old
age. He cared we'll for his family and
was highly respected by his friends
and neighbors.
Skeleton Revealed.
But there was skeleton in the clos
ct and it was revealed one day last
May, when two women and man ar.
rived in Seymour and went to the Will
son home. They owned the Seymour
man as their father and then the story
came out. Mr.. Wilson was former
resident OF Delphos, Ohio, it was said,
and left that place in 1873, going to
Chicago. He deserted his wife and
children and never returned to his
Ohio home In Chicago Mr.. Wilson was
Joined by Rebecca Farmer, who had
ben employed as a domestic in his
Ohio home. They went through a
marriage ceremony, which the woman
claims to have thought to be genuine,
but which Mr.. Wilson'S children de-
clare was bogus. Shortly afterward
they came to Seymour, where they
have lived ever since that time.
Mrs. Wilson was given a divorce in
the district court and Mr. Wilson
settled with her by paying her $500
and defraying the court costs. The
marriage Of Wilson and Miss Farmer
both now well advanced i'm age, is the
closing chapter to the interesting
story.

MAKING STRONG DEFENSE,
Sheldon Bankers Son Testifies In Hi,
Fathers Behalf.

Primghar, Ia, Oct26-The state
rested Its case against Ed G. Brown
after continuing the examination of r.
w. Ady, receiver. and putting j. M.
Shrenk on the stand, who made the de-
post ,on the day the bank failed. The
state proved by shrenk that Ed c.
Brown and his two sons were all in
the bank when this deposit was made,
but the defense will prove by at least
two on three withesse.-that Ed C.
Brown was not in the banking room
of the building when the deposit was
made, and knew nothing of it until
after the failure. Shrenk admitted
that his firm, the Sheldon marble
works. for whom the deposit was
made, at that time owed the bank on
a note not then due.
The case SO far looks bright for
Brown and his acquittal is predicted
by some. w. ID. Boies one Of Browns
attorneys, said yesterday that the state
had not made a case agaist Brown.
either under the law or the facts. State
Bank Examiner Bennett was here but
did not testify as the court ruled that
the solvency of the old Sheldon bank,
which was merged into the Sheldon
State bank in April, 1902, was not in
volved and as evidence along that line
was excluded, Mr.. Bennett did not tes-
tify.
Son Strong Witness.
The afternoon was taken UP with
the examination of Earl w. Brown, son
of Ed c.. Brown, and cashier of the
bank. Mr.. Brown made a strong witt
ness for the defense and untangled
many of the banks nets and snares
the state had set by trying to show the
worthlessness of many Of the banks
assets in the form of notes and mort
cages. He made clear many trans
actions which the state claimed were
shady. Ed G. Brown, the father, will
be the next witness for the defense,
and as he us thoroughly familiar with
the books Of the Sheldon State bank,
and with the old Sheldon bank as well,
for the past thirty years, he will
probably be kept ON the stand for
many hours.

vI.-Out of the Desert and Into Eden.
We went to sleep in the desert; We walked ~
in Eden.
Our last letter left us in Indio, California ~
oasis in the desert-an oasis, because we fonrd
the desert after leaving it just as we had found =
before reaching it. Indio behind US, the liob+ 90
the full moon still showed the sweep of drontb.
stricken lands, thorny cactus, dusty Yucca and
scrawny sage alone defying the ferceness of the
sun and the poverty of the soil.
Waking Up in Riverside.
This was the vision from my car window as 7
went to sleep; but the morning-who in River
side, California, can ever believe that the desert
is but a few hours away? For here are the green.
est of lawns, the finest of flowers, and MAGNIFICENT
trees. Here are orange groves laden with fruits
and blossoms; here the palm, pepper, plane, cedar
and eucalyptus trees flourish like the green bav Of
the Psalmist; here are geraniums higher than my
head. But from May to October-as in most 9TH
er sections of California; never rains and all
this profuse vegetation is the result of irriga-
ton. The orange groves are cultivated far more
carefully than are our gardens-acres and acres
of them always kept with a loose soil mulch on
top and never a single sprig of grass to be seen.
Symmetrical in shape, uniform in size, and Giant
ed in rows of the almost perfect regularity. these
goiden-iruited trees indeed make a beautiful pic
ture. At Riverside, too, we saw an Indian school
Sherman Institute-and several hundred In
dian children were in Sunday-school singing and
reciting. This institution is to the west about
what the Carlisle school in Pennsylvania is to the
East.
Sunday in the Far West.
Speaking of S~unday-school reminds me that the
Sabbath is held in no such reverence in the West
as it is in North Carolina. At Riverside we saw
more than one man working in the garden Sun
day morning; between Riverside and Los Angeles
reapers were at work in the harvest fields; and
in Los Angeles itself Sunday afternoon we found
the carpenters busy at work on a twelve-story
sky scraper. Even at night a cheap theater drew
its motley crowd, but our North Carolina party
turned instead to church-it happened tObe a
Methodist Church that we compromised On-and
we were gratifed at hearing an old-fashioned
Southern sermon with such familiar hymns as
"Just AS I Am" and Nearer, Ny God, to Thee"
The only unnatural part of the service was that
half of the women took off their hats and that one
woman led in prayer. And right here l might
say that these Western women are very independ-
ent. anyhow. They are more inclined to say what
they please and do what they please without walt
ing for the aid or consent of an escort, than art
our Southern girls, and more of the houseW0rh
done here by the women of the family and less
by servants.
