Supreme Court Will Be Asked to Pass
Upon Return of keister Children.
The supreme court will probably be
asked to take a hand in the case of the
Keister children. of Britt, one Of whom,
Dorothy, aged 3, is in the care of Mr..
and Mrs. A. B. Coppock, Of this city.
The Des Moines Capital of Tuesday
evening says of the efforts to bring the
matter before the supreme court: s.
Attorneys for the Iowa Children's
home today asked Judge Brennan to
make such so-called corrections in the
M. w. Keister iabeas corpus record as
will enable them to appeal to the SUI
preme court from the recent decision
which forces the home to return to
Keister his four children. The petition
for alteration recites that Judge Bren-
nan did not permit the defense ito in
troduce testimony which would have
greatly strengthened its showing. Two
witnesses, DR.. Cole and Attorney John
Hammil, both of Britt, would have tes-
titled that Keister was in sound mind
when he signed the children away, that
his wife's felopement did not seriously
affect him, and that he understood per-
fectly the terms of the REIMBURSEMENT
when he gave the children to the Des
Moines institution, the attorneys say.
1t is announced that Coppock, the
iMarshalltown foster father of little
Crete Keister, refuses absolutely to
surrender the child under the order of

Five More Are Killed in Neishborhood
of Center and North Streets.
Following the poisoning of dogs,
which created considerable indignation
Sunday in the vicinity Of North and
First and Second streets, the adjoin-
ing nefghborhood centering at Center
and North streets, was thrown into
excitement late Tuesday afternoon by
the death Of five more dogs by poison.
Indignation ran so high that the police
were appealed to and an investigation
is being made. Three of the dogs pois-
oned yesterday We're owned by DIR. E. S.
Burroughs, Charles r. Speers and Rob-
ert II. Deakin. Two other dogs, a
hound and coach. owned by Mr.. Robin
son, died between Center and First
streets on North. From Union street
there came to the police headquarters
complaint this morning that dog OF
that neighborhood had been poisoned.
Poisoned meat was reported to have
been found in the alley between First
and Second avenue Just north of Main
street, and high school students are
analyzing some tablets believed to
contain poison for dogs.
The poisoning OF yesterday is being
investigated by the police, and those
who lost dogs are contemplating of
fering a good sized reward for evi-
dence to be used in prosecution.

FILES AN OLD CLAIM.
Soldiers Home Member Asks Of State
-. 421 90 Co. $500.

Soldiers Home Member Asks of State
$31.32 for Army Service in 1861.
After waiting forty-six years to file
his claim with the state for army serv-
ice as private in Company c, First
Iowa cavalry, John M. Fife, a veteran
of the soldiers home, and a member
with his wife, of the old peoples build
ing, has presented the state with bill
for 1912. Fife came to the home from
Leavenworth, Kas., July 6. 1905, and
claims that only recently he became
aware of the law that gave to Iowa
soldiers pay for the time they served
from the date Of their enlistment until
they were mustered into the govern
ment service.
The act, which was passed in 1853,
was known as a special enabling act,
and had a bearing only on the First
Iowa cavalry. Under the act 674 MEM
bers were paid years ago, and it was
supposed that all claims had long
since been settled.
7 According to the act Fife is entitled
to pay for one month and eighteen
days from June 49, 1861, to July 81,
1851. AT S13 a month this amounts to
$20.80 for himself and his own services;
in addition he got for Communication for
clothing 81; and in those days the
service OF the horses which We're fur
jnished by the soldiers was paid for al
most as well as the man, at 40 cents
a day. making 1920 for his horse.
OF this total of s44 the government
paid s12.6s, leaving 1912 due to Mr..
Fife from the state of Iowa.

SCHEDULE STILL NOT RIGHT.
One Revised Returned to Maker for
Additional Corrections.

Additional Corrections.
The playing schedule of the Iowa
State League, which the league voted
short time ago to have revised so
that the Sunday and holiday games
would be more equally divided, has
been returned to President Peckham,
but it has been found still to be I'M
satisfactory. While the objections
made to it in reference to the Sun
day games allotted to Quincy and Bur-
lington have been remedied, the
same objection is now made to the al
lotment of Sunday games given to
Marshalltown and Oskaloosa. Oskaloo-
sa Is scheduled for only eight Sunday
games at home and this city is given
eleven. AS the submitting Of this
schedule would only precipitate an
other controversy, President Peckham
has advised the maker to correct it,
taking away one Sunday game from
taking away one Sunday gime from
this city and adding one to Oskaloosa.
Other slight changes We're suggested
in the apportionmeit of holiday games
1t is expected that within a few days
the schedule will be ready to again be
submitted.

tee for Investigation and Report.

The special meeting Of the board OF
trustees of Palmer College, LeGrand,
called for the consideration of the ser
lection Of president to succeed Rev.
Carlyle Summerbell, did not result in
final disposition of the presidency.
The executive committee was empow- ;
cred to investigate four candidates for
the position, and in a short time it is
thought that a recommendation will
be made.
The meeting Tuesday afternoon was
well attended. several more than the
necessary quorum being present. The
question of salary is one to be con-
sidered in connection with the appli-.
cant. as well as the qualifications, ex-
perience and standing of the aspir-
ants. Until a selection is made the
trustees voted not to make public the
names Of the candidates.

THt WOOD STRINGtNCY
 GREATLY RELIEVED
The Modified Order Allowing the SaIt
 of Fuel by Single Permits.

The wood stringency has been great ly relieved within the last week by the modification of the order prevent ing Indians from cutting wood on the Sacaton reservation. Immediately foi- lowing the order wood jumped up a dollar a cord and there was no telling where it would have gone later but the modified order- allowing Indians to sell load at a time with a permit which must be taken up by the purchaser has resulted in a great deal to retain sell ing and a consequent reduction of the price.
 The order was not modified for the purpose of affecting the market but be- cause it was necessary to do something to enable the Indians to live. no pro- vision having been immediately made for a revenue, to take the place of the proceeds from the sale of wood.
 The new arrangement also prevents the abuse which led to the promulga- tion of the original order for under the single permit system the Indians can not furnish the regular dealers with wood. It was formerly delivered by the Indians and put into cars but q car. would not be held day after day until they could fill car since they could not deliver more than one load day for only one permit would be allowed an Indian for any one day.
 A considerable number of them might conspire to get up a car load but the reservation authorities would soon become acquainted with that pro- ject and would put an end to it.

He had already accomplished a hole four feet wide, of the same length and about three feet deep. Beside a shovel and a pick he was armed with a brace and bit and screwdriver. He said he was hunting for his mother and he had heard her calling him. He had last seen her in Florence but he had learned that she had been brought to PhoenIx and had been buried where he was digging.
 ContreraS was removed to the coun- ty jail where 1t was dicovered on searching him that he was a dope fiend. He had quite quantity of morphine and two guns or needles. He was asked where he had got this layout and replied that he could get one almost anywhere.
 ContreraS was not immediately locekd up and while the officers were busy he walked out. He was soon missed and a hunt was made for him. He had not been gone more than ten minutes but that was long enough to acquire three more needles and moro morphine. His former supply had been taken away from his. He will be given an examination today.
