APPOINT THEIR COMMITTEE.
Old Settlers Planning Another Big
Time for This Year.

The officers of the old settlers asso-
citation met in Denison on Monday to
commence preparations for the annual
picnic. An executive committee of
seven was appointed, as follows !:
Geo. Naeve, Morris McHenry,
N. L. Hunt, J.. L. Ainsworth, G. l..
Caswell, S. McHenry and John Dob
son. They were empowered to fix
the date and to settle upon all de-
tails of the program. Several meth
DDS of entertainment were discussed,
the one finding the most favor being
that of having general Home-com-
ing Day such as they have recently
had in Kentucky. If this is done
the committee will invite a number
of the distinguished citizens whom
Crawford has furnished to other states
to take part in the program and a
systematic effort will be made to Sc
cure the attendance of Crawford coun-
ty people from far and near, with
such men as Secretary Shaw, Cover
nor H. II. Savage, Hon. Freeman
Knowles and many others to draw
on, splendid program could be
arranged. We trust the committee
will go to work promptly and help to
make this great day.

RECEIVED HEARTY APPLAUSE.
NEW CEMENT CROSSINGS.

Owing largely to the fact that ce-
ment crossings can now be put in at
very little more expense than plank
crossings the council is having all the
new ones ordered in cement. The
fact that the city now has a good
gravel pit of its own, materially
lessons the cost. A six-foot crossing
is now being laid between the Review
building and the opera house and an
other between the Review and the
Mccarthy corner is next on the pro-
gram These walks will be complet-
ed as soon as the telephone poles are
removed as ordered by the council.

AN AUTOMOBILE MEETING.

In another column will be found
notice of an automobile meeting.
1t is reported that this is to be an
anti-automobile' meeting, III the
nature of a protest.
The Review believes it will be
useless to protest against the auto,
for it has very evidently come to
stay in increasing numbers. Not
many years ago it was only the rich
est farmers who drove to town in
two seated carriage. Now the best
rigs in the county are owned by the
farmers and nearly every farmer has
one. The auto is now a town toy,
but in decade the farmers will be
using them daily. 1t will be just as
impossible to boycott the auto as to
boycott the railroad, or the bicycle
or the steam thresher. At the same
time it is up to the autoist to exercise
extreme care i'll the avoidance of accis
dents to passing teams. From what
we have seen of Denison autoists we
believe they exercise extreme eau
ton. We have to thank them for few
delightful outings, and on those occa-
sions we know they did everything
possible to prevent any accidents or
runaways. The chief JOY of the auto
is in its speed. If it be limited TO
horse speed the pleasure is gone.
The absolute control under which the
machines are driven makes a fairly
high speed possible without risk to
teams or pedestrians, except in
crowded thoroughfares. The Review
would not defend reckless drivers who
do not show proper consideration for
others, but the auto has come to
stay, it has certain rights to the high
ways. The best thing to do is to urge
continued caution and to get the
horses used to them as quickly as
possible. The time is soon coming
when every we'll to do farmer will
own an automobile either for pleas
ure or for hauling his crops to mar
ket. From luxuries, they will soon
become necessities.
RECEIVED HEARTY APPLAUSE.
The Wayne Herald giving an ac-
count of the 4th of July celebration
at Wayne, Nebraska, states: "The
crowd in Wayne was estimated from
five to eight thousand. Hon. Carl F..
Kuehnle of Denison, Iowa, delivered
the address of the day before big
audience in the bowery. He gave
utterance to patriotic sentiments
and his speech throughout merited

was frequently interrupted by hearty
applause. -

THE REVIEW MAPS.

The last of the Review Maps are
rapidly melting away. May first we
had 1000 of these fine maps on hand,
now we have less than 400. We
want all of our subscribers who are
entitled to them to have one. If
your subscription is paid up and if
you have not already received one
Ask and Ye Shall Receive. While
we want our subscribers to have
these maps we do not offer to pay the
postage on them. This will cost fif-
teen cents for postage and packing.
We have however, agents in nearly
every town in the county. SO if you
will write US we will tell you where
you can get one free. Outside the
county, however, the postage must
be paid by the subscribers. These
are splendid maps, we'll mounted,
printed in colors and are the latest
and most complete maps of the county
in existence. We are on the home
stretch on the map proposition. In
few weeks they will all be gone. If
you have not received one and are en-
titled to receive one, speak up at once.

HE WILL VISIT WYOMING.

Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. Stone are the
guests of their many Denison friends
this week. Mr.. Stone has decided to
quit the lumber business in Iowa and
will locate in the west. He leaves
on Monday for a Wyoming tri p which
promises to be delightful. He goes
with an excursion which will go
through to Lookout, Wyoming, where
the party will be met by coaches and
taken for two days overland trip
across the Laramie Plains and noun
tains to Wheatland. They will camp
over night by the largest irrigation
reservoir in America and then follow
the course of the irrigation bitches to
the land made so wonderfully fertile
by the lifegiving waters.
The expenses of the overland
journey will be borne entirely by the
land company. We cannot imagine
anything more delightful than such
trip at this season. Mr.. Stone would
be glad to have some of his Crawford
county friends join him for this trip,
but if they do they will have to be
quick about it for in order t. take the
free overland trip the COP y must
be notified on Saturday, i l4th.
The fare is but S21. 35 for the round
trip.

DOUBLE TRAGEDY AT MANNING
Ernest Koehnke Shoots Miss Fischer
Near Her Home, and Suicides.

Manning, Iowa. - Special: At
2 O'Clock this morning, following the
close of the fourth of July celebra-
tion, which ended with dance at
this place, occurred the most terrible
murder and suicide that has visited
this vicinity in years. Ernest
Koehnke, a young farmer working
for August Claussen three miles south
of town, shot and killed Miss Lucy
Fischer, the 18-year-old daughter of
H. F. Fischer, wealthy farmer liv-
ing four miles south of town, and
then turned his gun on himself and
ended his own life.
The double tragedy was due to the
jealous love of Koahnke for the young
woman, and he is supposed to have
grown temporarily insane because his
affections were not returned. Miss
Fischer is very prominent here. and
Koehnke's attentions had been dis
couraged by both herself and her par
ents. Koehnke had made every effort
to keep company with Miss Fischer.
but had only lived in this vicinity a
short time, and very little is known
of his past life, although his ac-
quaintance here was general.
The shooting occurred in the yard
of the Fischer home south of this
city, and was witnessed by neighbors
who had accompanied the young
woman home, and were just turning
away from the gate when the shots
rang out in quick succession.
Miss Fischer attended the Fourth
of July dance at this place, and as
the festivities did not break up until
an early hour in the morning, was
accompanied TO her home by neigh
bors. She babe them good night at
the gate, and was starting toward the
house when Koehnke suddenly raised
up from the tall grass where he had
been hiding, and leveling a revolver
point blank at her breast, fired. The
bullet went directly through her
heart, killing her instantly. her body
falling almost at the feet of her MUIR
erer.
Waiting but fraction of a minute
to make sure that he had accomplish
ed his purpose, Koehnke placed the
revolver against his head and blew
out his own brains.
The tragedy has caused a cloud of
gloom to settle over the entire COM
munity, largely due to the fact of
Miss Fischer's youth and the promi-
nence and general esteem in which
both she and the members of her
family are held. Her parents are
almost Frustrated by the shooting.

THE COURT HOUSE OPENING.


The Review has done more than
most partisan papers would, in the
way of giving the democratic mem
bers of the board full credit for the
good they have done. Their own
paper has not given them half the
credit that the Review has. The
members must not object then if we
express our honest opinion about the
egotistical and malicious little trick
they played upon the people of Deni-
son and upon the many farmers who
came to see the new court house on
the Fourth. 1t must be that these
men do not expect to be candidates
for reelection and SO do not care for
public opinion. even if this be the
case, they should have had sufficient
respect for their constituents not to
have slapped them in the face be-
cause they had the opportunity and
the power.
Some one says we are striking at
Henry Maynard in our structures on
the board of supervisors. If Mr..
Maynard had been a party to the
mean little trick, we must confess
that we should have said what we
have just the same. Fortunately
Mr.. Maynard expressed himself at all
times as perfectly willing that the court
house be opened on the Fourth, but
what was one man against four
The Review would not make parti-
san affair of this. The action of the
board was not directed against repub-
licans any more than against demo-
Gratis, no more against Denison than
against the farmers who came to see
the court house.
In our opinion, the whole thing grew
out of petty jealousy, the board did
not want any great number of people
to see the court house until they could
dedicate it themselves and stand
around with little tin halos on their
heads to receive the congratulations
of the adm1ring and awe stricken peo-
pie. When the dedication comes we
shall expect to see them wearing pla-
cards:
"This court house was built
through the board of Supervisors. -
