NEW TRIAL is GRANTED TO
GUSTAyE H0LMGREN, SAILOR
Judge de Haven Admits That Omission
of Certain Instruction Was
Very Material Error.

United States District Judge de Ha-
ven yesterday granted the motion OF
Bert NJ. Schlesinger for a new trial in
the case of the United States vs. GUS
tave Holmgren. Holmgren was con-
victed on one count OF an indictment
charging him with having sworn false
~ In the Superior Court as a witness
for the naturalization of Frank werta,
an alien sailor.
During the trial Mr.. Schlesinger had
requested the court. among other
things. to instruct the jury that it is
not incumbent upon the defendant TO
prove his innocence. or 10 explain sus-
picious circumstances. or to go upon
the stand and testify in his own behalf.
and that no presumption can be in
duiged against him by reason of his
failure to testify in the case. Judge de
Haven had omitted these instructions,
and the defendant had excepted.
In granting the motion for new
trial Judge de Haven remarked that
Mr. Schlesinger's colleague, NJ B.
Woodwork. had not taken his excep-
tion properly, but that the court de-
sired to give the defendant all his
rights. Notwithstanding technical de-
fects.

ton was accomplished and 542557 ex-
members OF the Blue Grass State have
been located They are ready to return

Still a Little Sensitive.

Editor Republican: Through the
fundamentally of gentlman in Kan
sas, whose prejudice appears to be
stronger than his intellect, a copy of
your paper of August End reached
my Office with an editorial marked
and headed "a Little Over Sensitive. "
AS to murder it is altogether too
frequent; but not one single murder
has Oklahoma produced but was caus-
ed by the lawleSsnesS of other states
and territories, Iowa furnishing her
quota. This, however, is q repetition
of past history-the lawless are fee
ing from crime, locating in new coun-
tries. SO much cannot be said of the
Indian Territory part of the new state.
Criminals have been born and reared
here and great many have been ar
rested and convicted, as the Federal
records show. Now, Mr.. Editor, we
feel proud to say that we have quite a
number of Iowans living here, who
are among the best of men, and we
want more of them. So we can't feel
very good when we hear of anyone
saying or doing anything to intimi-
date good men from coming here. We
cant help but feel little sensitive. In
conclusion: My wife, a very excel
lent lady, who for long time was a
resident of Audubon, is extremely we'll
satisfied here. So, personally, l can
but hope that other Iowans may move
here and assist in eradicating the ev-
lis that exist. S. c.. Hieronymus,

the summer months and in the fall un-
til the plants are removed to winter
quarters.

r. L. Wheeler Adjudged insane and
Sent there for Treatment.

Sent there for Treatment.
We noted in last weeks issue that
F. L. Wheeler who had gone to Wy.
oming had been arrested and impris-
oned because of what they considered
insanity. And that Sheriff Northup
had met him and the Wyoming offici-
al at Missouri Valley to accompany
Mr.. Wheeler home. The question of
his sanity was considered then to
some extent by the commissioners but
as no one filed information he was al
lowed to depart in peace, but not
without some misgiving as to his con-
dition. When he found himself free
again he went over to Coon Rapids
in search of his wife and children, and
learning that they were in the country
he secured a team and drove out to
where they were stopping. Mrs.
Wheeler kept in hiding but he found
some of the children whom he compel
ed to go with him to town. The offic-
ials were telephoned as to his condit-
ion and he was arrested with difficulty
and placed in the cooler for safety
Mayor Browning came over Sunday
evening and reported to the authori-
ties here when the sheriff and his de-
putty drove to Coon Rapids, returning
with him Monday morning. After a
hearing by the commissioners, Depu-
ty Sheriff Rutherford and Attorney
Joe ii. Ross left on the noon train
taking him to Clarinda for treatment,
which it is confidently believed will
relieve him of his present malady.

RESI- ROOM NEEDED.
For Tired Women and Children while
in Town for Shopping.

The following article from Harlan
paper applies with equal force to Aud
ubOn. And nothing could be done by
the business men of Audubon that
would be more appreciated. That pa
per says that Amy one who notices
the crowd of tired women trying to
shop these hot afternoons with two or
three fretful, dusty children-anyone
who notices the young people stop on
a corner to brush coats and straight
en- hats before venturing into stores
or who watches the fatigue on the faces
of the women waiting on the sidewalk
for the surry to come around will APP
preciate the statement. What a fine
comfortable thing it would be for ev-
cry one concerned if there was place
where the toilet could be relieved of
the dust of the road, where the young
sters could be left, where appoint
ments could be met. Then the mother
could visit the stores refreshed and
at ease, anu take her time in selecting
her list, and if she has leisure to look
at the bargains, so much the better. -

SHE HEADS THE LIST.
Mrs. Wood of hiiisbon, Oregon, lis
Years of Age.

Last week we referred to a lady in
Des Moines W DO hak just passed the
hundred years and supposed probab-
ly she was at the head Of the list. But
now comes the Christian Advocate, q
leading Methodist paper, and says
that Mrs. Mary Wood living q few
miles east of Portland, Oregon, was
born in Knoxville, Tennessee, May
20 1857, and is therefore ll9 years OF
age; and that she has been a member
of the M. f, church '1for l07 years.
She was born two years before Wash
ington was first elected president
When IS years old she rode horse
back all the way to Oregon on fav-
orite horse that she called "Marthia
Washington. She evidently stands
at the head of the list.
