SCARED ALOFT
Roy Knabenshue Made a Successful
Aerial Trip.

THOUSANDS WITNESSED THE
ASCENSION.

Los Angeles, Jan. 29.-Roy Knaben-
shue, the aeronaut, made a successful
flight I'm Captain Baldwin's airship.
the California Arrow. this afternoon at
Cnutes park. Knabenshue was in flight
about fOrty-five minutes. during which
time he circled within a radius of about
one mile of the park. executing all
sorts of maneuVers with the big aerial
craft returning finally and landing
within the enclosure of the baseball
grounds, from whence he had started.
The weather was perfect for the expert
ment, with just the faintest suspicion of
southwest breeze blowing. Immense
throngs gathered at the ball park, the
Chutes and on the streets for blocks
distant to watch the flight.
At 1926 the airship rose gracefully
from its anchorage at the ball park and
scared away to the northeast for half
a mile, gradually rising as it gathered
speed.

Knabenshue finally brought 1.-The Ar

dropping the anchorage rope, which
hung from the framework of the air
ship. within fifty yards from where he
arose. When the rope touched earth
the aeronaut stopped the motor and
the big gas bag was gently lowered to
the ground The big crowd broke into
cheers as Knabenshue alighted from
the airship.
When seen by the Associated Press
correspondent Knabenshue said:

When about 200 feet high Knaben-

craft in every direction, describing
complete circles within small radii

ARSENIC Is FOUND.
Caused Death of Cyrus Pratt, Calhoun

Des Moines, June 30.-ArSenic has
been found in the stomach of Cyrus

led to an investigation, and Pratt's
funeral was stopped Monday while the
arrests were made.
The stomach was removed from the
body and sent to Professor Kinney
Of this city for analysis, with a view
to discovering whether any poison
had been administered The examin-
alton was made yesterday and re-
suited in the finding Of a sufficient
quantity of the poison to have caused
the death of the man, if it was ad-
ministered before his death. It's pres
ence in the stomach, however, is not
absolute proof of a poisoning, as ar
senic is often found in embalming
fluids, and may have been injected in
this way.

was in the body when it was en-
balmed, but has written the Lake

this point, and for a sample of the

examination of this will almost con-
clusively solve the question of a muir

TRUST STATUTES
ARE KNOCKED OUT
Insurance Men Are Released
By Judge
McVey.
THE EFFECT Is WIDESPREAD
End Of Famous Case Instituted by B.
r. loose-Opinion is a Lengthy
Discussion Of Why Statute is lnvaI
valid and Not Good in Court.

Des Moines, July 2.-Holding that
the Iowa statute under which Messrs.
Wilcox, Howell, Hopkins and Skin,
.ner were arrested on testimony given
by B. F. Loose is unconstitutional,
Judge McVey yesterday ordered the
release Of the four insurance men un
der their writ of habeas corpus.
The opinion of Judge McVey, which
is a lengthy one, holds that under the
constitution of the United States the
statute cannot hold, and he regards
it as his duty to declare the statute
invalid. He finds that the penalty for
an infraction of the statute for com
panies having a large capitalization is
greater than for companies having a
small capital stock.
The case had it's beginning in the
justice court of +. e. Duncan, where
proceedings were instituted by b. F.
Loose. The four men waived their
preliminary hearing, and were ar
rested by Sheriff Lopez. They i'm
mediately commenced habeas corpus
proceedings, and were released on
their own recognizances.
County Attorney Miller says he
will carry the matter to the higher
courts for a final decision.

FOR SANITARY BUILDINGS.
Movement Toward Prevention o
Spread of Tuberculosis.

spread OF tuberculosis.
Des Moines, July 3.-Dr. e. Luther
Stevens, who has been making an
especial study of tuberculosis, strongly
favors an Iowa law which will com
pei the following of sanitary regula-
tions in erecting buildings in cities
in this state. This is the sort of law
which is now in effect in New York
state, and, in the opinion of DR..
Stevens, had it been enacted many
years ago, before the present large
cities became c%ongested with tene-
ments and unhealthy living places,
much of the disease and death of the
cities would never have occurred.
The doctor has just returned from a
six weeks stay in New York and
Washington, where he has been o b
serving the work among consump-
tiVes.
While Des Moines as a rule is
blessed with healthy living places,
yet there are a few very unhealthy
localities and tenements where the
sunlight never falls and where the
rains and SHOWS beat into the center
OF large ia buildings, never 10 dry
out. Places have been found in the
vicinity of respectable neighborhoods
where rubbish in the Easements has
been SO damp that a foul odor arose
constantly. forming the breeding place
for all kinds of germs and disease.
And in these localities disease has
been found.
Such a law would prevent the cree.
tfon of buildings with these possible
ties. 1t is generally conceded that
Des Moines will build up very rapidly
in the next twenty years, and at the
end of that time will be a city of
100000 or 5000 00. Unless such laws
are enacted. in the opinion of DR..
Stevens, many unsanitary, ill ven
tilated and disease breeding places
for cheap lodging houses will be
built.

HAT AND UMBRELLA ON BANK.
W. c. Spetman, Council Bluffs Grocer,
is Thouuht TO Have Drowned,

Council Bluffs, July 3.-The hat and
umbrella of w. c. Spetman, a well
inown Council Bluffs grocer, were
found on the bank of the Missouri
river, a quarter of a mile north of
the Illinois Central bridge yesterday,
by Edward Sharpe, a 15-year-old
boy.
Young Sharpe had gone to the
river to see an excursion boat pass
by, noticing footprints in the mu |
of the bank, followed them until he
came upon the tokens indicating a
suicide.
There is no doubt here that Spet-
man ended his life. He had been
sick for a long time, and inquiry of
his doctors developed the fact that
he had been suffering from a tumor
on the brain. This is thought to have
finally driven him to his death in the
waters of the river. So far as is
known his business affairs were In
good shape.
A reward of $50 has been offered
for the recovery of the eody.
Recently Spetman attempted to
throw himself off a morning trolley
car crossing the Missouri river
bridge, with supposed suicidal in
tent, but was restrained from doing

PARALYSIS STRIKES
D. B. HENDERSON

Dubuque, June 29.-David B. Hen
derson is resting much better in his
Julien house apartments from the
stroke of paralysis which benumbed
his right arm. The stroke happened
last Thursday and was kept remark
ably quiet. None outside the family
knew of the ~ex-speaker's condition
until it was announced through a
friend yesterday afternoon.
He showed signs of improvements
several hours after the attack and has
steadily improved. His family hope
for the return of his old time vigor,
but doubt is expressed. His left leg
is off, his right leg is stiff from rheu-
matism and his right arm is benumb-
ed. Expressions of sympathy are
many.
Dubuque, July 3.-The condition Of
Colonel Henderson is much improved.
His wife announced that he had
spent a good night and was improv-
ing wonderfully. He is rapidly re-
gaining the use of the paralyzed arm.
He will be able to be out in a week
or two, probably. The family thinks
that seclusion will help him and thus
slight publicity as to his condition is
given.

WHITE Is ONCE
MORE MISSING

Des Moines, July 2.-On the 2Sth
it was announced that Virgil White,
the young attorney who had myster-
iously disappeared from this city
earlier in the month, leaving the i'm
preston that he had been drowned,
had been found on a farm near De-
fiance. u. C.. Hume, a law partner,
went to Defiance, where he met White,
and after an interview, in which
White positively refused to return to
Des Moines, Hume went with White
to Council Bluffs. Leaving White at
a hotel in that city Mr.. Hume returned
to Des Moines and informed Fred
White, father of the young attorney,
of his whereabouts. Mr.. White i'm
mediately left for Council Bluffs, but
upon his arrival in that city, found
that his o had again disappeared.
AS yet there has been no satisfac-
tory explanation of young Whites
actions. 1t is claimed that he is la
boring under a mental breakdown;
that he is a victim of strange hallu-
cinations, etc. Mr.. Hume, to whom
White talked freely, says he has done
no wrong and that his actions, in the
light of circumstances, are excusable.

hand was not his lost son, Virgil
White, the Des Moines attorney. He
further learned, however, that his
son had gone west on the Union Pa
cific last Wednesday afternoon for
some point unknown to himself or
the train officials.
The father gave out completely

panied by Sheriff Taylor, and he sank
