One morning discovered little yellow pimple
on one Of her eyes. OF course, we 'phoned for doc

nois metropolis was enough for the
wandering youngster, and he again
headed westward, reaching Dubuque,
where he was gathered in by the po-
lice. Last week the Rhodes man re-
ceived a letter from the authorities OF
the latter city inquiring their wishes
in regard to the disposition of the lad,
but he has now had enough of that
kind of philanthropy, and g. hayward
boy has missed the opportunity OF MS
lise in deserving those who tried to lift
him to responsibility.
The persistency with which the re-
cent /epidemic of measles has hunted
down victims who have for many years
escaped infection is we'll illustrated in
the case of the R. NJ. Sanders family,
living near this place. Mr.. Sanders Is
81 years of age, was a soldier In the
civil war, where the times he was ex-
posed to the disease were "numberless
as the sands on the seashore." yet he
was untouched by the plague. His
wife is in the f1fties and two children
are yet at home. This spring they all
had measles-all at the same time, and
today two of the family are congrat-
ulating themselves on having had the
disease early in life, while the other
two are thankful they were excused
from the ordeal until the time came,
when a few days off duty resulted in
no serious consequences to the welfare
of the family. C. E. WILSON.

NO CHARGES AGAINST PRATT.
Iowa City Attorneys Say Situation Is
Most Unusual One.

Special to TimeS-Republtcan.
Iowa City, June 4.-Elmer Pratt, the
self-confessed murderer Of William
Connell, is prisoner in the county jail
without charge filed against him,
or a single legal document issued n
his detention. Local attorneys declare
that the situation is the most unusual
one in their experience. The finding
of the coroner's jury returned a verdict
stating that Cornell came to his death
by gun shot wounds inflicted by
Pratt, but no formal charges of any
kind have been filed in either the
mayors or any of the justice courts.
It would be Impossible, Of course, for
Council to secure his freedom, because
as soon as he asked for it he would
precipitate the hearing which would
result in his being bound over to the
grand jury. 1t is now believed that
Pratt will have little difficulty in se-
curing BAIL 1t is understood that the
attorneys will attempt to show in the
preliminary hearing that Ptatt's fear
Of Cornell had grown into monoman-
la and by raising presuming that the
man was irresponsible, reduce the
charge against him to murder in the
second degree. or manslaughter.
