Gen. STOESSEL IS
CONDEMNED TO DIE
"HERo OF PORT ARTHUR" WHICH
HE SURRENDERED, HEARS Z
FATE PRONOUNCED.
Because He Gave Up Stronghold to
Japanese Russian Commander
Must Give Life-His Comrades Es-
cape, Evidence Lacking.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 21.-Lieut. Gen
Stoessel, once known as "the Hero OF
Port Arthur" was condemned to death
Thursday evening by military court
for the surrender of that fort to the
Japanese.
Gen. Fock, who commanded the
Fourth East Siberian division of Port
Arthur, was ordered reprimanded for
a disciplinary offense, which was not
connected with the surrender, and
Gen. smirnoff, acting commander OF
the fortress, and Maj. Gen. Reiss,
chief of staff to Gen. Stoessel, were
acquitted Of the charges against them
for lack of proof. The court recon.
mended that the death sentence upon
Lieut.. Gen. Stoessel be commuted to
ten years Imprisonment in fortress
and that he be excluded from the serv.
ice. Gen. Vodar, president of the
court, read the sentences amid tense
silence. BY great effort Of self-con.
troll, Gen. Stoessel maintained a rigid
soldier-like impassivity. Gen. Smir.
noff also was seemingly unmoved, but
there were tears in the eyes of Con.
Reiss.
Death Sentence Pronounced.
The sentence Of death was pro
nounced upon Gen. Stoessel, "for sur
rendering the fortress before all the
means of defense had been exhausted; !;
for failing to enforce his authority,
and for military misdemeanors.'
Communication of the sentence was
asked on the ground that Port Arthur,
beset by overwhelming forces, defend
ed itself under Gen. Stoessels lead
ership with unexampled stubbornness
and filled the world with astonishmept
at the heroic courage Of its garrison;
that several assaults had been 70
pulsed with tremendous losses on the
part Of the enemy; that Gen. stoessol,
throughout the siege had maintained
the heroic courage of the defenders,
and finally, that he had taken ener-
getic part in three compaigns."
Block Stoessel Denomination.
Before the sentence was read meas
ures were taken to prevent demon
stration in favor Of Stoessel by num-
Der of the younger officers and wit
nesses, who were present. These later
sent dispatch to the empress saying
that they would humbly bear testi-
mony that Gen. Stoessel was the soul
of the defense of Port Arthur; that
he had ALWAYS encouraged and nut
heart into the garrison and that in
case Of war they would wish to serve
again under such a hero. They asked
the empress graciously to bespeak
from the emperor a full pardon.
There was a dramatic moment after
the reading of the sentence, when a
detachment Of soldiers filed into the
hall. The spectators thinking that
they were about to seize Gen. Stoessel
displayed great excitement, several
women fainting.

CHIEF TO PROTEST
INVASION OF JAP? ?
BOTH LONDON AND PARIS HEAR
OF POSSIBLE ACTION.
DISPUTE CHINESE TRADE
AZ Soon az American Fleet Reaches
Frisco, Says French Editor, Note
Will Be Dispatched to
the Powers.

London, Feb. 22.-Considerable in.
terest has been aroused in official and
commercial circles by the reports sent
over here by the American CORE
spondents of certain London papers
that the United States Is about to con-
fer with the powers with the view of
protesting against the policy adopted
by Japan in Manchuria, it being con-
tended that Japan's course has given
her own merchants advantages over
other traders in that part of China.
Nothing is known here officially re-
garding this proposed protest, and the
foreign Office doubts the reliability of
the press reports. Some complaints
have been received from Englishmen
trading in Manchuria, and in some
isolated cases it has been shown that
British commerce in that territory has
suffered, but ON the whole the official
view is that it would be difficult to
establish the fact that Japan has not
observed the policy of the open door.
England Made Uncomfortable.
With regard to the cancellation of
the contract held by a British firm
for the extension of the Hsin-Min-T Tun-
Fakumen railroad, the foreign Office
has advised the contractors that the
case is one in which Great Britain
cannot interfere and that it is for the
sole consideration of Japan and China
When the contract was cancelled Sir
John N. Jordan, the British minister
to China, was instructed to approach
the Chinese government in the mat
ter, but as soon as he learned that
China had agreed with Japan not to
construct any road which would COM
pete with the South Manchurian road,
and Japan held that this projected
dropped. The contractors interested
are influential and the question will be
raised in the house of commons.
Paris Hears Of Protest.
Paris, Feb. 22.-Apropos Of the re-
cent stories in the European press
concerning the open door in Man
churia Stephano Lauzanne, editor of
the Matin, who is at present in New
York, telegraphs his paper that he
learns on the highest authority that,
as a consequence Of official reports
that have reached Washington con-
firming the violation by Japan of the
agreement concerning the open door
in Manchuria, President Roosevelt in
tends to dispatch note Of protest to
the powers accompanied by request
that they join with the United States
in reminding Japan Of her engage
ments. M. Lauzanne adds that this
note will be sent as soon as the
American feet arrives at San Fran
cisco, provided Japan in the mean
time does not change her attitude.

TAKAHlRA TALKS PEACE.
Now Jap Ambassador Is Received by
President Roosevelt.

Washington, Feb. 21.-The formal
reception of Baron Takahira, as am
bassador of Japan to the United
States, took place at the White House
Thursday afternoon. The speeches ex-
changed between the president and
the new ambassador, while on their
face purely formal, we're characterized
in each case by an undercurrent OF
strong desire for the preservation OF
peace. The ambassador, for instance,
said: "The maintenance of lasting
peace with all nations and the conser-
walton of the rights and interests Of
all people are the cardinal objects Of
my august sovereign"

GOLF TOURNAMENT IN AUGUST.
State Association Fixes Dates at Des
Mojnes Meetjnu,

State Association Fixes Dates at Des
Moines Meeting.
At the meeting of the directors of
Iowa Golf association, held in Des
Moines, the dates for the annual state
tournament were selected, the list of
events and prizes was arranged. The
state tournament is to be held on the
course Of the Des Moines Golf and
Country club, during the second week
Of August. from August II to Is, in
elusive. This date was chosen because
the Trans-Mississippi tournament is to
be held at Kansas City in June and
the Western Golf associations tourna-
ment is to be held at Rock Island in
July.
A good list of prizes has been ar
ranged. Five cups and six medals In
addition to golf trophies for the four
ball foursome will be given to the win
ners and runners up in the four
matches Of the program. 1t is prob
able that Henry II. Ferguson, of Ce
dar Rapids, who won the state cham
pionship cup here last year, will not
enter the tournament next summer. He
is at present in the employ Of the gov
eminent in New Mexico, and 1t is
doubtful If he will be able to get away
from his work. Bun" Guinand, of Des
Moines, another very promising player,
will probably not start in the state
tournament. 1t is expected that there
will be a number of entries from the
Country club of this city.

RIGHT FOOD.
How tho Babv Was Saved.


when our first baby came it
was soon apparent that his mother
could not nurse him and it became nee
essary to feed him artificial food. We
tried everything recommended by our
family doctor, then consulted several
other physicians in succession.
1--WE experimental with nearly every
artificial food but could barely keep
the baby alive, and at the age Of
five months he weighed no more than
at birth. When eight months old he had
gained very little, and his stomach and
bowels were in such a condition that
we despaired Of raising him.
"a chance acquaintance recommend
ed Grapefruit and we commenced
feeding him on it, soaking 1t until soft
in warm water, as milk would not stay
on his stomach.
"From the very first we saw that we
had found the right food at last and he
began to improve Immediately. We fed
him on Grape Nuts in this way and
absolutely nothing else for several
months. and he grew so fast and be-
were surprised and could scarcely be-
lieve that it was the same child.
"He did not even begin to crawl or
cut his teeth until after we put him on
Grape-Nuts. Until that time he was
weak and helpless and cried nearly all
the time Now he is a strong, bright,
rosy-cheeked child Of 81 years"

DR.. BuckNER ON "cHoIcE.v
Mans Fate is As He Chooses, Declares
Methodist EVANGELIST.

At the special service last night at
the Methodist church DR.. Buckner
spoke on "Choice'' as a determining
factor in destiny, using as an illus
tration the historical incident of Lots
choice in selecting the cities of the
plain, and pitching his tent toward
Sodem. AS consequence Of this bad
choice, evil came upon Lot and his
family.
No community is better than the
people who live in It, neither is 1t
worse. We are what we choose to be.
The criminal in the penitentiary is
there from choice, because at some
previous time he made a decision and
started on the road that led to crime.
The drunkard and gambler are SO from
caoice. for they chose to start on the
path that led them thither.
There are two ways in the world:
One is the way Of everlasting death,
opened and established by the devil
as trap for men; the other is the
way of everlasting life, and this was
opened by God to save lost humanity.
According to our status as free moral
agents, we have the power of choice
and this power we must exercise. Some
are Influenced in their choice by num-
Der or by the crowd, and by a desire
not to be unpopular Men may plead
and argue and urge us, but in the flnal
analysis no one can choose for another,
and. each must fix his own destiny.
We have the solemn warnings Of his
tory pointing to the vanished great
ness of departed empires and peoples
to show what is the inevitable result
Of choosing ungodliness, impurity and
intemperance. Nations and individuals
have gone down to ignomy and de-
served shame on account Of false
choices. We cannot plead ignorance
of the effects Of choice.
The service tonight will be OF special
interest to women and girls, altho all
are invited. Song service at 1880, and
special music by the sunbeam chorus.

lllegitimate Heir of Henry
Flammkamp Seeks Recovery
of Fathers Property
FILES SUIT TO RECOVER
Mrs. Bernhard Ludwig, of Dortmund,
Germany, Acknowledged Legitimate
Daughter of Late Logan Township
Farmer, Brings Suit to Get Posses
sion of Farm Which Was Sold.

| An additional move was made today
| in the unusual case Of Mrs. Bernhard
Ludwig, Of Dortmund, Germany, who
has appeared thru her attorneys as the
| acknowledged illegitimate daughter OF
Henry Flammkamp, late Of Logan
township, and claimed to be his sole
heir, when a suit in equity was filed
in Mrs. Ludvig's behalf this morning
by which it is sought to get possession
of her fathers farm, which has been
sold.
Flammkamp died about a year ago,
and left an estate of eighty acres OF
land in Logan township and about S2,-
900 in personal property. Flammkamp
| left no will, and about forty distant
relatives appeared and made claim to
the estate. An administrator was APP
pointed, and later on the petition of the
heirs A. H. Bergman was appointed
referee by the court to sell the farm,
which he did, for $4,000.
Division Of Money Stopped.
When the referee was about ready to
distribute the money received from
the sale Of the farm, Mrs. Ludwig ap-
peared in the case thru her attorneys
and set up the claim that she was an
Legitimate daughter and the sole heir
of the entire estate. To substantiate
her claim, it was shown that there
stood against Flammkamp on the court
records of Dortmund, an unsatisfied
judgment Of $1,000, which Mrs. Lud-
wigs mother secured against Flamm-
kamp for the support Of her child.
When this showing was made to the
court. in a petition of Intervention
which was filed in the estate, Judge
Parker, about month ago, ordered the
money derived from the estate to be
held until it's distribution was author
lied by the court.
Daughter Now Wants Farm.
In the petition in equity, which was
filed today for the August term Of the
district court, Mrs. Ludwig seeks to
have the title to the farm invested in
her name, and desires that the court
order the sale Of the farm declared IL
legal, null and void and it's transfer set
aside.
A large number Of distant relatives
of Flammkamp live in the southern
part of the county and in Jasper coun-
ty. Some live in Germany.

tional Art congress for the develop
ment of drawing and art teaching, and
their application to industries, will be
in session there. The fact that this
city's schools We're invited to send an
exhibit of drawing and art work is a
distinct recognition of the high stand
ard Of excellence that has been at
tanned in the local schools. Much of
the credit for this invitation is due to
Miss Charlotte Reed. supervisor Of
drawing Of the public schools, who has
developed and taught the system in
vogue here.
When it is considered that the
American committee of this congress
selected only 100 cities and towns to
represent the United States at this in

one of them, the honor becomes even
more marked.

to say regarding the reasons this city
was included, and gives an outline of
what Is expected.

cities and towns representing nearly
every state in the union, and well
known for the excellence in results,
and invited these only to cooperate
in the making of one comprehensive
exhibition which should set forth the
American ideal in public art educa-
ton. Marshalltown was included in
this select list.

not especially prepared work, but the
best work which you have secured
under the ordinary conditions of
school life. 1t will form a part Of an
exhibit to be studied by the art teach
ers who will come to the congress from
every civilized country Of the world,
and your supervisor of drawing should
be given entire freedom to select such
work as in her judgment would best
meet the conditions"

showing of instruction and results OBJ
tanned by the system that is being fol-
lowed in the local schools.
The exhibit, when completed, will be
sent to New York, and from there will
be forwarded to London, where it will

THE STRENUOUS LIFE

Pulls SO Hard on the Stomach it Must
Have Help.
The stress and strain of the siren
uous life in both city and country
makes stomach troubles. Five people
suffer today where one did ten years
ago with sick headache, dizziness, flat
ulence, distress after eating, specks
before the eyes, bloating, nervousness,
sleeplessness and the many other
symptoms Of Indigestion.
All who are suffering with stomach
troubles, and that means at least two
out of three in Marshalltown and
other towns, should use Mi-o-na stom-
ach tablets. Nothing else is as safe,
yet effective; nothing else can be so
thoroughly relied upon to relieve all
troubles from indigestion as Mi-o-na.
So reliable Is Mi-o-na that Mcbride
s. Will with every SO cent box they
sell, give a guarantee to refund the
money unless the remedy cures.

late Thursday afternoon in the Grim
inal case against F. M. Miller, local
chiropractor, who was found guilty Of
practicing medicine without a state
certificate by the jury which heard the
