RAILROAD PAYS TAXES.
Black Hawk County Wins Contest
Against the Illinois Central.
Special to Tfmes-Republican

special to TfmeS-Repubilcan.
Waterloo, Dec. A victory was
won by the county in its contention
against the Illinois Central Railway
Company, in the matter of exacting
taxes to the amount Of $144.4S for
three pieces Of ground owned by the
company in the shop district in this
city. The taxes were paid to the coun-
ty heretofore without question until this
year, when the company's representa-
tives contended that the property was
included in the mileage assessment
levied by the state executive council.
and for that reason the county had no
right to impose an added burden of
taxation. The auditors office COM
municated with the auditing office of
the company in Chicago, stating that
the land in question had been used
regularly each year as ball park and
for circus grounds, and for this rea-
son was not part Of the mileage pro-
per as the state executive council con-
templates that term. The county au-
thorities said they would advertise the
land for sale If the taxes were not paid,
which was done. Last week the COM
pany wrote from Chicago, asking what
1t could do to prevent the sale of its
property, and the deputy county audi
tor replied that there was only one way
to prevent the sale and that to pay
the taxes. Yesterday voucher was
received in the mail for the amount OF
the taxes in question, $144.4S

Sp''N sos " ! NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Davenport, Dec. 4.-Instead of the
state being enriched thereby, the prop
erty of Charles Ullberg, the young
Swede who cut his throat year ago
last July, will make comfortable the
last days of his aged father and moth
err in Sweden. The parents live in the
little town OF Borghamn, not far from
Stockholm. The newspaper stories to
the effect that Administrator Charles
Lindholm and Assistant County Attor-.
ney Con. Murphy had been unable 20
find any heirs to Ullberg were read by
Victor Lind of Moline. Mr.. Lind knew
that sister of the young man. Mrs.
Hulda Karlbom. lived in Mobile, Ala,
and he Immediately wrote to her. This
was the first information she had that
her brother was dead. The aged par
ents in Sweden do not know It,
The property left by Ullberg, con-
sisting of $1,000 in cash, and valu-
able lot in Waterloo, Ia, will amount
to small fortune to the father in
Sweden, tho small recompense for the
news that he will hear for the first
time of the sad death of his son.

Special to IimeS-Repupncan.
Fairfield, Dec An the case OF the
State of Iowa VS.. John Clarke, before
j. NJ Stenson, justice of the peace
of this city, the defendant was found
guilty upon the charge of stealing two
head OF cattle from one of the neigh
boring farms on November q, near Ba-

attention because of the fact that the
prosecuting witness, William Clarke, is
brother of the defendant, and is the
outcome of a quarrel between them.
which resulted in William Clarke being
pretty badly used up in the fight. The
defendant, who was bound over to
await the action of the grand jury, in
the sum of 5000, promptly furnished the
same, and is now out on bail. The de-
PENDANT, John Clarke, is a prominent

Wyandotte Farmer Returns From the

Argentine, Kan. Nov. 17.-Persons
around here are being exposed to the
KIondike fever. Another Wyandotte
county man has returned from the far
north with riches. He is John Rohan,
until nine years ago a farmer in Wyan-
dotte county. He is visiting his broth
ed, Edward Roban. He says he is
worth a million dollars and has a $3S,
600 bank account in this city.
A few days ago John c. Brown, for
merly of Argentine, but now of Nome,
Alaska, returned to his old home rich
man. Both Brown and Rohan viii
spend the winter with friends in Wyan-

Until nine years ago Rohan was a
farmer a few miles west. He says he
decided that farming was a slow way
to get rich, SO he decided to go to
Alaska He went into the heart of the
Klondike region and began digging.
Many troubles were met at first and he
endured various hardships.. But at last
he struck it rich and made good"
Il have one little mine I was offered
$50. 900 for few days before I left the
KIondike" Mr.. Rohan said. That
amount of money wouldn't touch it.
have some other mines even more val
liable which / am working myself Out
there we find gold nuggets that are
worth large sums of money"
Mr.. Rohan exhibited two nuggets
which he said are worth more than
500 each.
ssOf course I am happy over the fact
I struck it rich," Mr.. Rohan said. Il
took desperate chances at times, but
you know that doesn't count when a
fellow makes a success. No, thanks,
I think I shall not retire to the farm
again.
