GIVEN TWELVE YEARS
Dr.. crofford, Convicted of Murder in
Second Degree for Causing Death Of
Maud Stone. is Sentenced to Long
Term in Penitentiary.

Osceola, April 10. Dr. Crofford.
convicted at the recent trial In this
place of murder in the second degree
for causing the death of Maud Stone
thru criminal operation at his san
itarium in Lamont, was Monday SEN
fenced by Judge Evans to term
of twelve years in the penitentiary.
The sentence came after a motion for
new trial, presented by the attorneys
for Dr. Crofford, had been overruled
by the court. Crofford heard his sem
tence without comment and apparent
ly unmoved.
An appeal bond for $12,500 was at
once filed, signed by the men who have
already given bail for DR.. Crofford and
he has returned to his home in La
moni, pending the decision of the SUE
preme court upon his case.
The defense bases it's appeal upon
the admission of the two letters which
have already played SO important
part in the case. The attorneys for
the defense contend that the letter
from Maud Stone to Ira Hammond, in
which she mentions her plans for such
an operation, is not material as evil
dence, on the ground that Maud Stone,
not being liable to prosecution in the
case, could not be regarded as CO.
conspirator, and hence that her letter
should not be allowed upon the court
records.
Judge Evans, on the other hand, has
ruled that the letter is admissible in
order to show the intimacy which ex-
listed between the dead girl and Ham
mond.

COLLEGIATE TRACK MEET.
Prospects for Holly Contested and
Successful Event.

Special to Times epubllcan.
Des Moines, April 13.-Prospects for
holly contested and successful in
ter-collegiate track meet in Iowa were
never better than now. The event is to
be held this year on Saturday May 81,
at the state fair track and the prelim-
mary arrangements have about been
completed by the state games commit
tee. The we'll known conference referee
DuPlessis, has been secured as referee
and starter of the track events, ana
Carl Ruthfus will have charge of the
field events. The committee now has
before it several designs for place med
ais, but none have as yet been accepted
The squabble over inter- collegiate
base ball among the Iowa colleges is
having and will have it's effect upon
the state track meet. 1t has made the
rivalry among the colleges more in
tense and, as Ames and Iowa will not
meet on the diamond, the two big state
institutions will fight it out on field and
track. The contest for first place this
spring promises to be between, those
two schools with Drake, the five times
winner, struggling with Grinnell for
third. AS the meet is still more than
month away events may arise to
change this forecast DR.. Monilaw Of
Drake, has way of developing a win
ming team from what, early in the
season looks like impossible material.
and Dr. Monilaw is working hard with
his track squad. brakes last years
point winners on this years squad are
few, however, while Ames and Iowa
have q number Of their old men left and
| other material just as promising. Grim

WIDOW GETS THIRD
Dubuque Judge Holds That Widow
Cannot Be Deprived Of Her Share
in Husbands Estate.

Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, April IS. - The widows
right to one third of what her hus-
band leaves was sustained in de-
cision by Judge Matthews Saturday
afternoon. The case was the suit of
Mary Fay and children brought
against the Roman Catholic Mutual
Protective Association. The late Peter
Fay held an insurance policy for ST.
900 and by it's terms it was payable
to my wife and children or as by will
shall appear"
The association fully admitted it's
liability and paid the money into court
to await the decision on the suit, this
being really brought to determine what
the rights of the seven parties, the
widow and the six children were under
the contract and the will.
BY his last testament, the late Peter
sonal to his wife during her natural
life, but no mention was made in the
will of the life insurance. 1t was con-
tended by Mary Fay, the widow and
plaintiff, that by the will she was en-
titled to the insurance during her life,
or if the will did not give her this, to
one-third the proceeds Of the life in
surance under the Iowa statutes. Two
of the children of Peter Fay claimed
that there being seven parties to the
suit, that the widow and each of the
children was entitled to an undivided
one-seventh.
The court upon final hearing held
first that the insurance was not affect
ed by the will and that Mrs. Fay was
entitled to an undivided third of
the fund and the six children to the
undivided tWo-thirds.

Grinnell, April Is. - Mrs. D. s..
Schuyler, with her little son three
months old, starts tomorrow morning
to join her husband in Campbell, Cal
ifornia. She Is accompanied by her
father, Mr.. A. G. Hartman, who goes
with the hope Of finding both suitable
climate and employment and making
California future home for himself
and family. Mrs. Schuyler has been
at the parental home in this city for
several months and has just recov-
cred from a very critical illness. Mr..
Schuyler was kept in California dur
ing this period by condition of health
that would not permit him to leave
that climate without running great
risk and his happiness in view of the
coming reunion and the sight of the
baby boy whom he has never seen
will be appreciated by those who have
experienced similar separations.
On the same train with Mrs. Schuy-
Ter will be Mrs. II. G. Wire, who goes
to join her husband at Stockton, Cal,
from which place they go to "F'orty
Mile Nine" where Mr.. Wire, who has
been in California for some time, has

The new Carnegie library on, the
college campus is now ready for use
and the books and disable material from
the old library in Goodnow hall are
now in process of transfer to the new
building. The dedication of the new
building will probably be postpone
until the annual commencement season
owing to the impossibility of getting
some of the speakers wanted on that
occasion at the present time and that
commencement is now so near at hand.
At the regular meeting of the school
board last evening Superintendent D.
A. Thornburg was reelected to enter
upon his seventh years work in this
city and his salary fixed at $1,000. T.
H. Ziegler was again elected as high
| school principal at salary Of 5000,
and all high school and grade teachers
were reelected to the same positions
with perhaps one or two exceptions in
cases where teachers voluntarily
change. Harmony prevails in the
board between the board and teaching
force and amongst the teachers, an ]
the schools are doing very creditable

General j. Warren Keifer, represen-
tative-elect from Ohio, has been Gre
ating a mild sensation in Washington
hotel Hobbies by wearing evening
clothes in the day time. The old war
horse called at the white house one
morning attired in spike tail coat,
low cut vest and tall silk hat with
no overcoat. Someone asked if Cen
eral Keifer, who used to be speaker
of the house Of representatives long
years ago, had merely donned his eve
ming clothes as mark of respect to
the president. The inquirer was in
formed that the general was attired
in his usual manner and that he never
wore any other coat than a swallow
tail. This is one Of the Ohio mans lit
tie eccentricities.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, April 1S.-Mason City
census enumerators have finished their
work and the results show splendid
gain over the government census Of
1900. According to the enumerators
the state census will be listed as 1921
for Mason City. They claim that since
the first of January when they began
to take the census that at least 900
more people have moved to the city,
the vacant houses of the winte, hav-
ing practically all filled up with. fam
lilies generally of the ROoseveltian
size. The census of 1900, according to
the government enumerators was 6,746
thus making gain of 1875 or
growth of % per cent, which is es-
pecially gratifying when compared
with other towns and cities in Iowa.
Six months after the government cen
cite took census of the city and
found the government census of that
year more than thousand people shy
and If block to block census were
taken this year again in the san man
ner counting travelling men who make
their headquarters here and vote here,
the people who have moved into the
city since January l. the students and
teachers whose homes are here as
much as any other place, the railroad
men who make this their headquarters
and their homes, but are very Elusive
to the state or government census
enumeration, the state enumerators de-
clare that the real count would number
perhaps thousand more than they
have returned. Their instructions are
such, however, that to find and list
these people would take an i,1termin-
able length Of time, and the board of
supervisors would not stand the ex-
pense which undoubtedly is wise.
However, the returns when compared
with other cities are very gratifying.

Those who desire to work win have a chance at stock farming or at any Of the numerous positions incidental to the operation of the sanitarilm.
 As the climate of New Mexico cures SU Cer cent of the consumptives who reach there on their feet, it is expected that from three to ten months will be sufficient to so far cure the ailment that patients will be able to settle any where in the Southwest, and engage in business, and in many cases return to their homes hale and hearty. Tn this connection statistics show that the sun shines $50 days in the year in the IO Gallinas canyon. Humidity is un- known.
 There are several means by which consumptives may become residents in EraternaI City. The greater portion will be the guests of the fraternal or ders who have contributed to the gen eral fund. the orders selecting their stricken men and women independent of the sanitarium. The same applies to all churches, clubs, unions and muni- cipalities. In such cases the individ- ual will be under no expense, the cost or his or her maintenance being charged against the organization which sends the patient there. Wealthy indi- viduals donating a lump sum will also have the privilege of sending pa eients, irrespective of their relations with fratornities or churches. In ad- dition to the eases cited, consumptives not allied with any of the above. and f who can pay their way will be received on an equal footing and maintained at actual cost.
 It will require an expenditure of
 $75,00O to put Fraternal City in proper
 shape for the reception of patients, a
 portion of which has already been con-
 tributed in small amounts Until Fra
 ternal City is formally opened, the bus mess and correspondence will be con- ducted from the sanitarium headquar-
 ters, Chemical Building, St. Louis, Mo.
