A MOTHERS LOVE.

IN the casket Of human life no gem
shines SO brightly, no jewel is so val
liable, no feeling 50 everlasting as a
mothers love. Enduring as life,
and never wayering, 1t Is the one
thought IN human nature as firm aud
lasting as Gibralter, When all the
world turns against her offspring, the
mothers love Is most enduring, and
shines out upon a sunless sea sa a
beacon light 10 guide her son along
the pathway Of better life. 4
mother lover Who hath not felt
heartthrobs como with the thoughts
Of that eternal faith?
Who hath not turned to mother for
that look Of confidence when all else
seemed lostY Mothers love is being
demonstrated In the Sidney Sloane
trial at Spokane. Mother Is there,
firm ia the belief that her boy is not
guilty 81 the crime Of patricide; she
IL confident he did not deliberately
commit the deed that made her a
widow and her son felon In the eyes
Of the world. No matter what the
result Of that trial may be, the moth
res love will make her believe that
her boy was not responsible when the
blow from the AZ ended the life OF
father and husband. II Is the story
Of the world, always the same, and
mover changing mothers love, the
greatest gift human being can be-
stow upon man.

EMMA RIPkE TELLS STORY
Girl Says She Heard Potts Say He
Deserved to Die.

Council Bluffs, Dec. 5.-For three
hours yesterday Emma Ripke, on trial
for the murder Of Frank Potts, was
on the witness stand. In explanation
of the conflicting stories she told i'm
mediately after Potts death, she said
she was confused and did not know
what she was doing. Asked to relate
the circumstances of the case she said
in substance that Potts returned home
late, drunk. He retired and she again
fell asleep. She said she was aroused
by a sharp noise causing her to leap
from the bed. Potts then said he had
shot himself, and that he deserved to
die. She still did not believe he had
been shot and called a physician who
told her that Potts had suffered from
an attack of heart failure She said
she was as much surprised as anyone
when learning the next day that a bull
let had been found in his heart She
made a good witness and was little
confused on cross examination.

LACEY WILL RUN
FOR The SENATE
SAYS THAT ALLISON WILL NOT
AGAIN BE A CANDIDATE AND
HE WILL ENTER RACE
Sixth District Congressman Makes the
Statement in the Presence of Sena-
tor DoIIiver-Does Not Want the
Land Office Job.

Cedar Rapids, Dec. 5.-The Gazette's
Washington correspondent says:
Congressman Lacey caused a real
sensation in the Iowa colony by an an
anoiihcensent about his plans for the hu-
ture. He Is going to return to Iowa,
resume the practice, Of law at Oska-
loosa and two years hence run for SEN
ator. Asked if he would again be a
candidate for congress in the sixth dis
trict, the major said:
"Pll be a candidate again, but not
for congress. I'll run for the senate
two years from now"
"But what do you mean-how do
you figure it out?" was asked.
Senator Allison will not be can
didate again; he is &c years old. Two
years hence we will have popular
primary in Iowa they are going to
adopt this winter Why shouldn't run
for senator under it "
"No reason at all; it's just matter
of getting the votes"
well, I'm going to take some little
part in politics in Iowa from this time
on and it will not be a joke-my run
ming for the senate"
The majors announcement was
made in conversation with your cor
respondent, Senator Dolliver being
present. II was apparent that it was
made in all seriousness. Previous to
these statements he had said that he
would not ask or want the commits
Isionership of the general land Office, for
whicn he has been considered the most
likely candidate.
Does Not Want Land Office.
II can earn more money practicing
law he said, "and anyhow it would
not ne any satisfaction to me to be at
the head of a bureau. l would rather
like to be secretary of the interior, but
head Of the general land office is quite
another thing. These thieves who are
after the public lands would be calling
me names in no time, and there would
not be time enough to reform the
thing. No, don't want the place."
Major Lacey, as the only Iowa repub,
lican defeated this year, is bitter
against Governor Cummins and, his
| friends say, believes he could beat the
governor in a race for the senatorial
nomination under popular primaries
] At any rate. there is not much room
I for doubt that he intends to try for it,
and doubtless he has reason to think
he will have the general standpat sup
port.
"And the democrats won't vote in
this primary, either" added the major

JURIsT FEARS POVERTY; DIES
B. F. Webber of Minnesota Commits
Suicide by Hanging.

New Ulm, MINI. Dec. 5.-Former
Judge B. F. Weber, considered one
of the most brilliant men at the Min
nesota bar, committed suicide yester-
day by hanging. Fear of the poor
house, although his wealth was esti-
mated at 100000, drove the jurist to
take his life. Large medical bills for
the treatment Of his wife, who has
been paralytic for years, led the for
mer judge to believe that his accumu-
lation of years of arduous work on
bench and at the bar would be dissi-
,pated shortly.
Mr.. Webber was to have been the
guest of honor at a banquet Friday
night, rendered him by the Brown
County Bar association, in honor of
his long service on the woolsack, from
which he resigned only a few weeks
ago. Leading attorneys from all parts
of Minnesota were to have been pres

GILLETTE FOUND
GUILTY BY JURY

YOUNG M ,aa,aoas lied OF
II saeyoo9 - OF GRACE
..oWN LAST JULY
Must Give Up His Life For the Deed
After Hearing Verdict He Imme-
diateIy Pens Message to His Father
in Denver, Col.

Herldmer, N. Y, Dec. 5.-The jury
in the trial of Chester E. Gillette for
the murder of his sweetheart, Grace
Brown, at Big Moose lake, on July IL,
last, last night returned a verdict OF
guilty in the first degree.
Sentence will be pronounced on
Thursday morning to which time court
adjourned after the jury had reported.
Former Senator Mills, Gillette's coun-
sci, before adjournment announced
that when court reconvened at 10
o'clock Thursday morning that he
would move to have the verdict set
aside.
Court Room Was Crowded.
Every seat end every bit OF space
where standing room could be secured
in the court room remained filled
during the five hours Of the jury's de-
alterations. Many expressed their de-
termination to remain until moraing
should verdl,t not be returned last
night. The buzz Of conversation was
continuous as people 6iscu ssed he
phases Of the case. Now and then
there was stir as rumor spread thar
a verdict mad oeeu reached and every
movement in the direction of the jury
room was watched with intense eager
ness
Every eye was fixed on Gillette, who
was evidently nervous when he enter
ed the room, accompanied by Under
Sheriff Klock, and the crimson flush
that had remained on his cheeks all
day, during the merciless speech OF
f the prosecutor, had faded into death
ly palor He was chewing gum and
his fingers twitched nervousIy as he
took chair.
Heard Sentence StoicalIy.
When the foreman made the an
nouncement that the jury found the
defendant guilty as charged in the in
dictment, Gillette was sitting corner
wise in his chair. His legs were cross
! ed, his favorite attitude during the
/ trial. AS the words that were destined
to send him to the death chair, were
spoken, there was not sign of change
| in the prisoner. Not quiver showed
that he had heard them. His features
were set and his face was colorless
His expression was vacant and he ut
tered no sound.
At the request Of Gillettes counse
the jury was polled.
! Gillette set motionless and as one
after another the twelve jurors arose
to their feet and declared that they
were united in their decision.
Wires Father the News.
When the twelfth man had respond
ed, the stolid Indifference or studied
composure Of the boy was exhibited
as never before. Leaning over near
by table he drew towards him bit O.
white paper, and taking pencil from
his pocket, wrote deliberately, this
message:
Father: am convicted.
Chester"
This was one of the earliest dis
patches carrying the news of Gillette;
doom beyond the court house. 1t wen

ENTERS UPON MOVEMENT WITH
HOPE OF ACCOMPLISHING
TARIFF TlNkERING
AGAINST CHILD LABOR
Bill Introduced Providing For Prohibit
tion of Interstate Commerce in Arti-
cles Upon Which Children Under IA
Are Employed.

washington, ~. W., DeC. O.--SoAsoASoo-
man Ames of Massachusetts has begun
a propaganda for an immediate move
ment in the interest of tariff revision.
He says he is not undertaking to Sc
cure action at the present session OF
congress, but is urging upon the repub-
lican members the advisability OF a
general caucus to "give concrete ex-
preston of their determination to i'm
mediately revise the inequalities pres
ent in our tariff laws SO all possible no.
tice of the country may be given as
to the time of revision"
To Prevent Child Labor.
Senator Lodge today introduced a
bill designed to prevent the employ
ment of child labor by prohibiting
Interstate commerce in any article in
the production of which child under
IA has been employed. The prohibi-
tion extends to children under 16 who
cannot read and write.
Busy Day In Senate.
The senate committee on naval al
airs today ordered a favorable report
on the nomination Of Victor H. Met
calf to be secretary of the navy. The
morning business was heavy in the
senate today. 1t was practically the
first opportunity the senators have had
to introduce petitions, memorials, bills
and resolutions and many of such were
presented.
After debate the senate postponed
until tomorrow the consideration Of
the resolutions calling for information
relative to the discharge Of the negro
troops of the Twenty-fifth infantry
The delay is caused by the absence
from the city OF Senator Penrose:
A resolution was adopted calling or
the secretary of commerce and labor
to furnish the senate with copies of al
official letters, kilograms and reports
etc, filed in the department in connec
tion with the investigation Of the mat
ter of the Japanese attending the pub
| lie schools in San Francisco.
Asks Additional Power.
The President today sent specia
message to congress urging legisla
tion giving the executive authority
upon his own initiative and responsi
bility to dismiss any officer whom he
thinks unworthy to remain in the ser
vice. The law at present provides thai
in time of peace no officer shall be
dismissed except in pursuance Of court
martial or in mitigation thereof.
1t is not improbable that the legis
lative appropriation bill which now is
being prepared by the house commit
tees on appropriations and which soor
will be reported, will contain provi
sion increasing the salaries of mem
bers Of the house from $4,000 a yeal
to $500.
Such 2 provision doubtless would bt
subject to a point of order as new leg
islation, under the rules of the house
but it is said there is tacit under
standing that the point shall not bt
raised.
In view of the increase it is probabl,
that there will be coupled with it ;
proposition to pay members only thei
actual travelling expenses in lieu of thu
5 cents per mile which they now are
4 allowed.
