The grounds committee of the board
of directors of the local base ball as
sociation has commenced active work

sent to Des Moines to be thoroughly
overhauled and patched. The outfield
is to be filled, scraped and rolled and
made more level, and is to be regu-
larly moved thruout the season, that
the grass may be kept down. Water,
which was so badly needed last sea-
son, that the diamond might have been
sprinkled to avoid the dust, is to be
piped to the track and from there will
be carried by hose to the diamond,
which will be wet down before each
games. Charles Click, who is chair
man Of the committee, has active

Charming Little Commedienne Re
leased From Matrimonial Bandage.
The large audience that witnessed
the clever work of Mabel Hite, the
charming little commedienne of THE
Girl and the Bandit" company, upon
her recent appearance at the Odeon,
were not aware that the apparently
happy young woman was at the time
in the midst of matrimonial en-
tanglement from which she was trying
to free herself. Such was the case,
however, and a press dispatch from
Kansas City, announces the granting
of divorce to Mrs Mabel Hamlln
from her husband, Ellis f. Hamlin.
Mabel Hite was married to Ellis e.
Hamlin at Salt Lake City on March
2, 1901, who deserted her three weeks
after the ceremony. 1t was one OF
those hasty marriages. Miss Hite hav-
ing known Hamlin barely three weeks
before she married him. Miss Hite
was then only is years Of age, and
was playing Estelle in THE Telephone
Girl" Hamlin posed as a very wealthy
man, with thousands to invest in min
ing ventures, but his supposed for
tune suddenly vanished after his mar
rage. Mrs. Hamlin filed petition
for divorce in Seattle, but this case
was dismissed. She then aled her case
at Independence. No. and Judge SLOW
err granted her decree.
1t mas been said that Mabel Hite is
engaged to be married to Arthur Duff
fy. the champion sprinter, who is now
in Australia Miss Hite. however, has
denied this emphatically.~

From Earlier in the Year Will Also
Probably Be Brought Up.

A special meeting of the city coun-
ell has been called for this evening. at
which time the council will conslder
some of the matters that have been

matters to be considered Is the La
Plant injunction case which the city
has filed in the district court. This
matter has never been before the
council, but rather in the hands of the
executive committee, which will re-
port tonight. to the council.
Other matters scheduled for tylis
evening are consideration of the tire
and electrical inspection ordinances.
which have been pending since earlier
in the year, and which were deferred
for further action at the last meeting.
The call issued for the meeting is
not specific one, and any matter of
business may come up and be disposed
of tonight.

was simply to put the preachers on
record. There are great many DAILY
men," added Mr.. Stanton, who, while
they are not teetotalers themselves,
would, at the present time, take slap
at the saloons. We thought that in
view of this fact we would help the
preachers if they wanted prohibition,
and our proposition was simply that
would deliver them the necessary sig
natures.'
What the Law Requires.
In filing a petition of remonstrance
against the saloons the law requires
the signatures of a majority of the vot-
ers who voted at the last general cleo
ton. AT the general election last No
vember there were 2,413 qualified cleo
tors who voted and majority of this
number would be 1,207. The opinions
of three different attorneys who have
been asked by the T.-R. are to the eff
feet that the signatures to the petition
must be those OF voters who actually
voted at the election.
Contest Not Vet Decided Upon.
Mr.. DAILY, when asked this morning
as to the result of the meeting of his
workers, held last night, said that there
was no decision arrived at on the
question of filing contest Of Mr.. In
gluedue's election. Mr.. DAILY said that
the question was talked over at length,
and the views of his workers We're ex-
pressed. He said that he felt at pres
ent that the better plan might be to
let the matter drop, and accept the
situation as it is. Some Of the others
at the meeting were not of the same
opinion, however. When asked what
the causes for the contest might be,
providing one is filed, Mr. DAILY said
he did not know, further than different
statutory causes could be brought.

Orders were issued Wednesday re-

Most of those affected are firemen who
were made engineers during the winter
or last fall, and the order was issued
owing to the decrease in business and
the correspondingly lessened number
of trains which the company is run
ming. The young engineers will be
given runs as firemen until such time

SIRE OF THE PACK is DEAD.
Sheep Killing Wolf is Killed for Which
Reward Was Offered.

newark was OU0F0Os
Near Rhodes there lies stretch of
country, which for years has been wolf
infested, and altho the farmers of this
locality have used every effort to ex-
terminate the pests, it seemed as tho
their eXertions were useless. Within
this territory is included the farm of
several hundred acres belonging to Su-
pervisor w. H. Jones, which has been
used largely for the raising of sheep,
several hundred being kept on it most
of the time. So successful became the
ravages of the wolves, and SO large the
loss sustained by the sheep and lambs
they killed. that during the past two
or three years the wolf hunt has been
relentlessly kept up.
During all this time it was known
that the sire of the pack was an unus-
ually large wolf Numberless times he
had been seen, but as many times had
he eluded death or capture, altho traps
were set, and hunters followed his
trail. AS a stimulus to their efforts
Mr.. Jones offered a reward of $40 for
the killers scalp, but for months it was
unclaimed. Monday John Roberts and
Charles johnson, with hounds of their
own and others borrowed of DR.. Morse,
of this city, and Mr.. Mudgett, of Tama
county, ran down and killed this wolf.
The pack of six dogs started the wolf
from his lair, and holly followed him for
five miles. So closely did the pursuers
follow the trail that the wolf took to
the water in a creek as a last resort.
The fight which followed, and which
was witnessed by the dogs owners, is
described as terrific. So cornered was
the wolf that but one dog could close
with him at a time, and in the water
the wolf had every advantage. The
animal was finally dragged from the
water by the dogs, but not until some
of them were crippled and cut in the
fray The wolf is of a variety unknown
in this part of the country, and is said
to be of the kind found in the Mime
sofa woods, being much darker of coat
than the gray wolves Of this vicinity.
He has crossed with the ordinary
wolves, and has produced a variety
much larger than those ordinarily kill
ed. He weighed sixty pounds, and
stood twenty-eight inches high at the
shoulders.
