Clear Cut Confession by Grove.
The letter in contention in the Grove
case, according to men who have seen it,
is a clear-cut confession of the Cudahy
kidnapping. to all appearances, by Grove.
1t was received by' Father Murphy at
Vail, Ia, and was transmitted by him to
Edward A Cudahy. The most of the
epistle is devoted to protestations that the
writer had repented and desired to lead a
new life and would do so if given chance.
In substance II was stated that the writer
was wholly responsible for the crime and
had originated 1t himself without the aid
of anyone else. He made the fiat PROPOSE

and forget" he would pay back 81, OOO

Until the policy of the government was set
tled-whether we were to or were not to re-

Mr.. Longworth (O.) interjected the state

ANIMATED DEBATE IN THE HOUSE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13-The fortifica-
| items appropriation bill held the attention
OF the house today and the text :or
| considerable heated argument--frst. over
the lax method of expenditure of public
moneys and. second, over the location OF
the proposed $15,0OO.OOO naval station for the
Philippines. MI Gillespie CTex) made an
unsuccessful attempt to get into the record
statement of grievances of the coal OPP
orators and shippers of Pennsylvania and
the democratic leader Mr.. Williams inau-
gurated a flibuster over the question of
adjo urnment as a retaliation.
Mr.. Smith DAD, in charge of the fortii-
cations bill advanced the idea of vitalizng
ten OF the committees Of the house charged
with supervision of expenditures in the va
rious government departments. He advo-
ca ted an amendment to the rules which will
compel reports from these committees an
nually. these reports to be the result of in
| Nesugation regarding government expendi-
lures. He urged this as a preventive of
bureaucracy" toward which he saw a
present tendency.
Mr.. Smith Explains Measure.
A. O'Clock the house took up the FORTH
cations appropriation bill with an agree
ment TO limit the debate to three and
ildil .
Details of the bill were explained by
Mr.. Smith Ua.) In explaining the sums
spent for fortifications Mr. Smith said the
amount since 1888 had been s119, 102. 4SS. AL
though the plan of the Taft board had
not been made public. he could state un-
officially that It contemplated a further
expenditure of $lO6.O00,000. To maintain a
skeleton artillery organization to hold these
Qualifications would entail an annual cost
of 100000. OF the amount appropria ted
s60o, GOO was TO be expended for batteries In
the Philippines and Hawaii. It was the
policy not to make appropriations definite
in order that the works constructed might
not be revealed to the world. However,
he said Hawaii was to get about 100000
and the Philippines 100000.
Before Mr.. Smith closed he reverted again
to the oil painting question He said: TO
day in the other departments these oil
paintings. alleged works of art, supposed
TO portray the features OF long-forgotten
statesmen. have so accumulated that they
have to hang them in double and triple
tiers upon the walls, and the question is
now, not where TO get oil paintings to go
on the walls. but where to get the walls
on which to hang the paintings"
Mr.. Alexander On. " defended the au-
diting system and in reply Mr.. Tawney
stated that despite the perfect system OF
auditing It had been ascertained by the
appropriations committee that many APP
preparations were diverted

A KNAVE OR AFOOL..

Some time ago Brother 2. T. Will
liams had an article in the paper pro-
testing against certain prayer-chain
letter that was going the rounds, and
it was to be hoped that the foolishness
would cease before now, but it has not.
If the letter was sent out by a per-
son of good sense. the originator is a
knave, because the purpose was likely
to have been at the expense of the
gullable. To my own knowledge this
has been done. Aside from the cost of
stamps, mentioned by Brother Will
liams, it has caused some really pious
persons no little mental suffering.
If the person who started this nom
sense is fool, of course he is not
worthy of punishment, but ought to be
in an institution for the feeble minded.
The good Bishop whose name was
given in some of the letters knew moth
ing about the prayer until one of the
letters was shown to him, and he and
his friends were very indignant that a
liar should thus use his name.
The simpleton who started it says
one person paid no attention to the
letter and was punished by an acct
dent! God dosen't deal in accidents, if
the person was punished by an acct
dent, God has nothing to do with it.
l can give the names of half dozen
persons who have stopped the letters
and have had no accidents.
The thing is heathenish and sensible
people will pay no attention to those
letters. A. K. Kasey.

MEADOW LAWN.
A News Man Makes a Trip to This
Farm...GOOd Work Being Done.

The News Man accompanied Mr.. J,
N. Coffey to his farm, known as Mead
ow Lawn, one day last week and spent
several hours in looking over that large
plantation and noting the improvements
made and being made under its owners
new methods of making the desert
blossom like the rose.
Meadow Lawn is located about Z
miles Southwest of Columbia, between
Bliss and Gradyville and fronts on the
Columbia and Gradyville road. 1t is
made up of two old farms containing
near 400 acres of land, rich and poor,
steep and level, washed hill-sides and
fertile bottoms. The fact is that Mead
ow Lawn was made according to Mr..
Coffey's judgment as an ideal stock
and grain farm and he is undertaking to
reclaim the waste places and bring it
g.. 60 '. - = {" 7~o1rlctive powers.
In this we are boundsto say that he is
rapidly succeeding, for several hill
sides, two years ago with gullies to
feet deep, galded places covering
acres have been filled, smoothed, enrich
ed, drained and now in small grain and
grass presenting beautiful picture in
contrast to their former appearance.
Mr.. Coffey has an instrument which
enables him to drain his land without
washing it up. At meeting of the
Adair County Farmers Club he will
make his theory known to all who may
attend, but the principle is that of ter
racing, and no man can see it demon
strated without comprehending its
value. There are over 100 acres of
grass on Meadow Lawn that has not
been pastured and hay stacks dotted
about which shows that it is productive.
With it rich bottoms, productive slopes
and many springs of clear water the
boundary is one of value and while Mr..
Coffey is devising plans and putting into
operation scientific methods, yet all
that is being accomplished is not due
solely to him, for Mr.. G. w. Spillman
and fons whose energy and good judg-
ment, coupled with honesty and de-
termination are the ones who are real
ly turning the dirt, but both owner and
tenant are making things happen.
