To allow the Minneapolis & st.
Louis and the Iowa Central further
time to determine the actual effect
of the new two-cent fare law, Judge
Mcpherson granted Attorneys Judge
Carr and H. V. Poor of New York

Burrier Violates Parole.

burfleF Violates Parole.
George Burrier, member of the
famous Clinton gang" will probably
go back to the penitentiary. Burrier,
who was the star member of one Of
the worst gangs OF thieves and bur-
glars who ever infested Iowa, few
days ago became intoxicated at Gin.
ton and was placed under arrest.
The police wired Governor Cummins
that he had broken his parole and
promises of good behavior and it is
thought that in view of his record
the governor will send him back to
prison
Burrier's love of drink, which had
so often been his undoing, is respon.
sible for his latest downfall. During
the heighth of his career he was a
hard drinker, and in several in.
stances his capture was effected
through his craving for liquor.
The noted criminal owed both his
conviction and parole to L. E. Fay
of Clinton. From the time $1,000
worth of diamonds were stolen from
the residence Of G. A. Fay in Gin.
ton L. e. Fay never rested until
every member Of the gang was con
victed. Burrier's testimony was the
most important evidence against
several Of the men, and it was be.
cause of this that Mr.. Fay started a
movement for his parole. Since his
release Burrier has conducted a res

The prizes paid for the flour rang

which could not buy by the car load,
the price was from $3.50 to $3.50. At
other institutions it ranged from

made with precision the average
would be found to be slightly less

but are caused by displacement OF
the globe itself from it's true axis
and are really due to the jar Incl
dent to the subsequent swing back
OF the earth upon that true axis.
1t is conceivable that such return
movement to the axis as we'll as the
original distortion would cause a
tremendous strain upon the crust
and could easily account for tho
most terrific seismic CONFUSION
imaginable. Sir Norman Lockyor.
another British authority, declares
that the deviation from the true
axis, a fact which can be scientil
cally proved, Is due to the great
sun spots which recently sent more
energy to the earth than at any
other time during the 35-year sun
spot period and which through tenn
peratures, caused the formation of
vast ice masses at one or the other
OF the poles OF such weight that
the distortion takes place, to be
subsequently remedied by other vari-
ations.
