REAL HAVANA CIGARS FOR FIVE
CENTS.

P. A. Clemmer Buys Wadsworth Bros.
Ohicos Direct From Maker and
Save Patrons Jobbers' Profit.
The fact that Wadsworth Bros )
Sell their Chicos direct to the leading
retailers, thus saving all middlemens
and iobbers' profits enable me to buy
the Chico so that can sell them for
FIVE cents straight.
The CHICO is fine, rich aromatic
cigar, with special selection of high
grade Havana filler, and while it costs
me more than any other five cent cigar
In my case, yet am always glad to
recommend it for I know that a smok-
er who buys Chico will come back to
my store for more
The best men in this city, the bank
ers, lawyers, the merchants, those'who
can afford to spend ten, fifteen cents
or more for cigar prefer Chico on
account of their mildness, and their
true Havana fragrance and flavor.
When you can get real Havana
cigar for nickle what is the use of
paying higher price or smoking a
poorer cigar?
Try a Chico and you will agree that
1T is the best cigar for the money that
you have ever smoked. au % sep 7-1S

Right and the Truth"
OF course Mr.. Porter does not think
SO, any more than the large faction in
the republican party opposed to the
governors denomination thought 80
in the pre-convention canvass. Nor
does this faction think so now,
nothing having occurred to change its
Judgment. Mr.. Perkins permits it to
be understood that he is of the same
opinion now as before Mr.. Cummins
was nominated.
In other words, Mr.. Perkins and
national republicans holding to like
convictions purpose indicating on
election day that they do not accept
Mr.. Cummins as the Light and Truth.
They are not of the opinion that Mr..
Porter is the Light and Truth, but he
has not pretended to the virtue.
They are in accord with Mr.. Porter
that Cumm1ns is not the Light and
Truth, but that he is the issue. And
being disposed to accept Cummins as
the issue, they are inclined to express
themselves on the issue. This they
will do, in what manner has been
indicated.
All of which emphasizes the measure
of harmony In the republican party

Kansas City, Mo.-"Is Mrs. Agnes
Myers to be the first woman hanged
in Missouri, or will Gov. Folk COM
mute her sentence of death to one
of life imprisonment"
These questions are being asked by
nearly everyone in Missouri. Mrs.
Myers was sentenced to be hanged
June 20. The supreme court had re-
fused her new trial. But the gov
ernor granted her respite until
September 8.
Mrs. Myers was convicted of the
murder of her husband, Clarence My
ers. Her motive was that she might
be free to marry Frank Hoffman.
Hoffman held the husband while the
faithless wife cut nine great gashes
in his throat, face and chest with his
own razor.
The supreme court it passing upon
the case pronounced it the most afro
cious murder ever committed within
the state.
Frank Hoffman was sentenced to
be hanged the same day as Mrs. My
ers, June 20. The governors respite
extended to him also, and if neither
a respite nor a Communication is grant
ed September 8 the guilty wife and
her paramour will both be hanged on
the same day and hour.
History of the Murder.
The murder of Clarence Myers was
the most cruel deed ever done in this
city. He was pressman-an indus
trious, clean-iived young man, and he
idolized his wife. They lived in q
cozy cottage and seemed to be happy
One morning in May, two years ago
the neighbors were aroused at day
light by a woman's scream. They
went out and saw Mrs. Myers lying
in the doorway of her cottage home
Her head and shoulders were upoI
the porch outside the door. She wore
her nightgown and was barefootet.
Mrs. Myers told that little after
midnight she was awakened by 6
noise and saw two negroes standing
at the foot of the bed. One of them

she said, caught her husband by the
feet and dragged him out over the
footboard. The other, she said,
grasped her. She struggled with him
awhile, then tainted, and did not re-
gain consciousness until five hours
afterward, when it was daylight.
Mrs Myers said that a small box
containing her jewelry and a purse
with some money in it had been ia
ken by the negroes.
Story Branded as Weak.
From the very first the detectives
did not believe her story. They
doubted if negroes, intent simply up
on robbery, would stop to cut man
SO terribly. The cuts indicated a ma
liciousness and viciousness behind
them. Any one of the nine across the
throat would have caused death. The
six stab wounds In the back indicated
not the work of a burglar but the
fiendishness of one prompted by hat
red.
The detectives doubted that wo-
man could lie in a faint for five hours
and then be SO cool and unexcited as
Mrs. Myers was When discovered.
After examining the premises careful
ly the detectives held a conference in
the woodshed and agreed that Mrs.
Myers herself was the murderess. The
detectives examined her hands close
ly and found dried blood beneath her
finger nails and around the edges of
THnv found thaf dlIrin0 tho
night fire had been kindled in the
parlor stove and that woman's
nightgown had been partially burned
there. The sleeves, which were
soaked in blood, remained unburned
in the stove. Upon window sill in
the kitchen, hidden behind the cur
tain and wrapped in cloth, was
found pair of scissors. Their points
fitted exactly into the stab wounds in
the dead mans back. In Bureau
drawer, with the shaving material of
the dead man, was found the blood
smeared razor with which his throat
had been cut. The detectives search
ed further. They even took off the
backs of pictures hanging upon the
wall They pulled out an organ, I'M
screwed the back Of it and found,
tucked away in an obscure corner, the
jewelry and money which Mrs. Myers
said the negroes had stolen from her.
Beneath pile of blankets In q
closet was found a black felt hat
which had been literally soaked in
blood. An effort had been made to
wash it before it was put beneath the
blankets, but there was blood in
plenty upon it. With the hat was a
shirt, the sleeves of which we're
bloody, and a pair of bloody cuffs
When confronted with these things
Mrs Myers merely smiled and stack
to her first story about the negroes.
she was not arrested, but was watch
ed closely by the detectives.
FOR month the murder was a mys-
terry. Mrs. Myers stuck to her first
story. The police believed that there
was man somewhere, a lover of
hers. who had helped in the murder,
out there was not the slightest clew
to show where he was.

Cummins the Issue.

The Sioux City Journal, George d.
Perkins newspaper, agrees with
Claude Porter, democratic candidate
for governor, that Cummins is the
issue in the Iowa campaign.
Mr.. Perkins points out that Mr..
Porter has not made the issue, but
accepts the issue as he finds 1t. 1.-THE
issue was made by Cummins. Porter
is out to meet the ISSUE"
Mr.. Perkins line of vison is unob.
structed. His memory is serving him
we'll. This is what he says:
"The republicans OF the state, wheth-
Or they be pro or anti. Cummins can
not now shift the ground If they
should unite in trying, and the dispo.
sitton to unite is not apparent. As
the governors adherents have 1T, it is
sthe Cummins party against the field.
There are republicans in every
county OF Iowa who did what they
could do to shift the issue, but they
were held to 1t by executive power
with the aid and consent of demo-
Gratis. The democrats have what they
wanted.
"Oummins is the issue.
1.-THE governor would not permit q
shift in the interest of the party. He
would not admit that he was bit
threadbare and in a rut. He insisted
that the party should wear his clothes
and come down to him. He represent
ed that an emergency was in our
midst and it was his broad 1ntimation
that The was the only man who could
effect rescue. There were many of
his partywho bade bold to take an op.
posite view. They said Iowa is q great
state and that its greatness and it's
wealth are In its men. They said of
the ninety-nine counties of the state
not one is too poor to furnish a suit
able candidate to uphold the banner
OF the great party. But the COVER
nor's lip curled; the observation SEEM
ed like personal disparsgement, and
he said he was in the ring to fight 1T
out to the bitter end. we are past
the time, he said, long past the time,
when the lover of harmony can &C
complish anything In this world of
ours To speak Of compromise was
to make confession of damnable rela-
tion. "A man must not only be the

Congressman Hubbard of the Elev-
enth district must be related to Old
Mother Hubbard, who went to the cup
board to get her poor doggy bone.
At least, his experience is very similar
to that of the historic old dame When
she got there the cupboard was bare,
and SO the poor doggy got none. Con-
gresham Hubbard will find when he
gets there that the standpat Republic
ans will be more SCARCE than the
bones were in former days. Indeed,
1t will be all bones and no Republican
harmony at all.
