Karlsruhe, Grand Duchy of Baden, Germany, June 2.-The government of Baden today sent message to the Diet regarding the restoration of Heidi elberg castle, partially destroyed by Marshal Turenne when he laid waste the palatinate.

Energetic protests have been made of recent years against the projects for the res toration of Heidelberg castle on the ground that it would be desecration of the historical and poetic associa- tions of the most ancient of the Ger man castles. which was begun in the thirteenth century. The Baden govern ment however. has outlined a plan designed to interfere as little as pos sible with the character of the ruins.

chautauouas Under the Ban.

Sunday baseball as we'll as Chau-
tauquas and numerous other Sabbath
amusements are placed under the ban
ate. The Ministers Association of
Des Moines is responsible for the bill,
and the pastors discovered at the last
moment that it applied to Sunday
Chautauqua entertainments. A des-
perate attempt was made to remedy
the oversight, but it met with such
determined opposition that the minis
tiers decided to let the bill go through
as drafted rather than run the risk
of having it fail altogether, and will
depend on the house to amend it so
as to exempt the popular summer
Chautauquas. When the proposition
to exempt the Chautauquas was made
Senator Saunders took the floor, angri-
ly protesting against showing favor,
itism to the rich, SO called respect
able class, while denying the poor
their Sunday amusements. "If you
give the church people their Chautau-
quas," he declared, you must give
the poor man his saloon, his theater
and his baseball game" 1t is expect
ed that the house will cut out baseball
from the list of things forbidden on
Sunday, and 1t 10 said the ministers
will not oppose this, as baseball is not
played at night. They want to sup
press boxing and wrestling matches,
however.

cRoSSLEY PLANS THE FIGHT
Reason for Defeat of Election System
Saunders Amendment to Move
Is Pushed. But with Little Re
sult-Other News of Solons.
Russen Woodland, Staff Correspondent

Russell Woodland, Staff Correspondent)
Des Moines, LAIN the legislative
session of 1907 Senator Crossley,
whose statewide primary election bill
met defeat in the senate by vote
of 20 to 81, will put in another meas
ure much like the one of this meeting
and that statesman hopes for better
results. The fight on the primary bill,
which resulted in it's defeat, marks
the end of the agitation for this as
sembly. In his final speech on the
measure Senator Crossley announced
his intention of again making fight
in 1907. The result was due to the
fact that the majority of the Demo-
cratic senators would not vote for the
measure, only two of them, Stirton
and Lyons, in the end being found
in the popular side and six against
it. The friends of the measure lacked
three votes. The Democrats secured
the adoption of an amendment which
the friends of the measure, the stand
patters who opposed it in body, and
the Democrats thought would result
in the passage of the measure both in
the senate and house. But the stand
patters assured the Democrats that II
it were put in now it would be
stricken from the bill in year from
now, and the Democrats voted against
the whole proposition. The senate voted
upon the Saunders amendment to the
primary bill and it was defeated by a
vote of % to 20, the Democrats voting
with the Cummins men.

of the night to cover" suicide and

dying from the effects of the fall q
few days later. This man died at his
post of duty as truly as thH fireman or

great catastrophe that brings his
duties into play. And the death Of this
young man ought to impress upon the

Caney, Kan, March 6.-The great
gas we'll Ave miles from here, in the
Indian territory, that has been burn
ing since February %, when it was
struck by lightning, continues to roar
with undated fury, The flames
forced 100 feet into the air, were Wis

fire probably is one of the worst of it's
kind gas men have ever had to COM
bat. An attempt to extinguish the
flames with steam having failed an
effort to drop an immense iron cap
over the well was made, but without
success. This cap, weighing 5000
pounds, was turned to a white heat
when within 20 feet of the well. An.
other attempt will be made to cap the

To Call pes Moinss Meeting.


Des Moines, Ia.-This city will doubt
less see the meeting of representatives
of several states, next summer, with the
object in view of devising means to Sc
cure election of United States senators
by the people. After five hours debate,
which was more acrimonious and per.
sonal than any heard for years in the
Iowa legislature, the senate adopted the
Lewis resolution, authorizing Gov. Cum
Minis to call convention of represen-
tatives of the several states of the union
in July to devise means to secure amend
ment to the federal constitution so that
United States senators may be elected
by the people instead of by the legisla-
lures. AntiCummins men made a
fight to prevent the adoption of the reso-
luton. They made vigorous speeches
against it, but at the end, it being clear
that the resolution would carry, only
nine senators voted against it, 10 being
absent and % voting for it,
