STOP THEFT OF COAL
Four Offenders Arrested and In the
Tolls.

The Iowa Central railroad has lost
in Oskaloosa during the past season,
according to the statements of Off
Gals, over 1900 tons of coal. Most
of it, probably has been stolen.
Thursday night in an effort to break
up these thefts, the railroad special
agent, F. L. Colwell of Minneapolis,
assisted by officer Donnelly, arrested
four parties, charging coal thefts.
They were tried before Justice Prich-
EFT yesterday and one, Lee Dowd, a
boy of Is, was released because Of
his years. Milton Woods, aged IS
years, Grin Woods, aged % years, and
David Hayes, who is old enough to
know better each pleaded guilty 70
the charge and were sentenced by
Justice Prichett. Milton Woods and
Hayes are to serve five days each,
while the other Woods must spend
ten days where he won't need coal to
keep warm.

H..
Attorneys Woodson G Brown won
complete victory in the Austin case
at Abba last week. Mrs. Austin Of
Buxton was on trial charged with
murder in first degree for killing her
husband. She admitted the killing
but claimed it was done in self de-
tense and after a week spent in the
taking Of testimony and the argu-
ment of counsel the case was given
to the jury at 2 o'clock Saturday af-
ternoon, and at o'clock that evening
they returned with a verdict Of not
guilty. 1t is said that only one vote
was recorded against the woman on
any Of the degrees voted upon and
that was on manslaughter. On that
question the first ballot stood IL to
/ in favor of acquittal. The State
was ably represented by the county
attorney and an assistant who made
a strong effort to convict the woman,
but the consistency of the defense
put up by Messrs. Woodson & Brown,
and the straightforward testimony Of
the woman in her own behalf were
the elements that impressed them
selves upon the jury and resulted in
the verdict Of not guilty.
