Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 31.-Captain
August E. Mueller, pilot, sailed to-
night in the balloon Vile de-Dieppe in

The Vile de Dieppe has a capacity

1880 pounds of ballast, 100 pounds
more than the Chicago. claimed to be
the largest balloon in the world, took

The Vile de Dicppe was cut loose

An Iowa newspaper gives the fol-

: All Harrison county was shocked
Monday by the announcement that
Mrs. B. F. Roberts, wife of ex-Rep-
sentative Roberts, in Dunlap, had, in
a fit of temporary insanity, committed
suicide, by drowning in a pond near
the family residence in the country
near Dunlap at an early hour that
morning.
She had been showing traces of
nervousness of late,but it was not sup
posed there was anything serious the
matter with her. She had been visit

day, and on returning and retiring at
night seemed in good health and spir-

When Mr.. Roberts awoke Monday
merningthe missed her, and, institut-
ing search, found her in small ar
tificial lake near the house.
Mrs. Roberts was one of the most
benefcent and highly respected wom-
en- of this county. She came here in
the year 1861 from her home near
Grand Rapids, Mich, and engaged in
teaching. After the war she married
B. F. Roberts, returning soldier who
had seen much service. They had two
children, Miss Minnie, professor of
mathematics in the Iowa state college
ait Ames, who visited here during
Chautauqua, and Orris, member of
the U. s. signal corps. stationed at
Bismarck, q. D.
The family home near Dunlap has
been for forty years the center of So
cial pleasures, and benevolent words
and works and itseems all too strange
that its light should so out in such
darkness at tLis time.

to move at once into the new court house. Of course, the board had no right to grant this request until the building is accepted.
 It is probable, however, that the structure will be all in readiness by the next meeting of the supervisors and if such is the case there will be a rapid Hitting to the new quarters.
 The building complete will cost about $13,50O. It has fifty-foot front age on Main street, and a depth of 10S feet. There are seventeen public offices, and the court room for the Superior Court is located in the rear of the second floor. This room is 24x4S feet and will seat 100 people. It is connected with the County Jail by a rear stairway, so that prisoners can be brought directly from the jail to court.
 It has been found that the steel door for the vault in the County Treasurer's office is two inches too small to admit the countys new man. ganese steel safe; and it will be nee essary to put the safe within the vault and then place the steel door and brick it in position.

Arthur T. Stewart Seriously Injured

As the result of a quarrel over some trivial matter at the Depot Stables in El Centro, "Wednesday, Arthur T.

This hearing will take place this afternoon before Jus tice Tout
 Stewart is a young man, and Sails bury is lad of 15 years. Both have been employees at the stables for sev- eral weeks, and it appears that there has been more or less pickering be- tween them, which eliminated in the trouble this week.
 Salisbury asserts that Stewart turned the hose on him just after he had dressed preparatory to starting to Imperial and that when he protested Stewart made for him to infiict punish ment. Salisbury says he picked up an iron bar and swung it before him as he backed into stall, that Stewart sprang for him, and got a crack over the head with the bar.

COURT HOUSE INSPECTION.
Supervisors Find New Building Un-
 finished and Refuse to Accept.

County Supervisors met in special session at El Centro, Thursday, for the purpose of formally accepting the new court house and passing the de mand of the contractors for the bal anc6 due on contract. The board made a personal inspection of the building, and found numerous small matters, which members and the building sup erintendent insisted should be changed before the building would be ready for acceptance.
 After discussion for about two hours, during which the matter of payment for certain extras, principally the nec- essary bracing in the roof, which the board had demanded some weeks. ago, was considered the board decided to adjourn until next Tuesday at 10 o'clock.
 There is forfeiture clause in the &ontract for the court house building, whereby a charge of $10 per day may DS lCNlCQ dSdlhoC IAIS NOhbliSlOAO lOl leach day after April II required to 3omplete the building. Some of the Supervisors are in favor of enforcing this clause, as they say the county will lose money because of the delay in acceptance of the building.
 Several of the county officers are forced to move from present quarters by May 1, and if they are not able to enter their permanent offices by that time it will work general hardship to them and to the owners of the buildings. In the Blackinton building where are the quarters of the County Assessor and the County Surveyor, there is much confusion, as workmen are arranging for the new tenants, and yesterday MT.

Angeles and San Diego Papers That
 "Frsud FIourishes" In Imperial Val
 ley--MolehII Magnifled to Mountain.
 The contested land case of Edward
 Watson against Herbert Underwood,
 vOlving a desert entry on tract of
 lluable land near Holtville, has been
 scided by the register and receiver Los Angeles in favor of the contest
 lt. The evidence showed that Un- erwood made the entry for the pur- Dse of assigning it to l.. J. Woody Redondo, who in turn transferred to w. J. Seat of Occur d Alene, |laho.
 Underwood, the defendant, did not
 ppear when the case was called for
 caring, and Seat, the transferee, and Woody appeared to be most active in ne defense.
 The hearing was continued in order D secure the attendance of Under 5ood. When he appeared, Gen. Pres ott subjected him to rigorous ex- Animation. Underwood stated that he
 i'd not think it necessary to appear s the land has passed out of his lands. He also asserted that H. w. Duncan represented him as attorney, Dut Duncan disclaimed any such rela- ion.
 At the close of the hearing, the reg ster stated that fraud had been clear y proved in connection with the entry md it's assignment to Woody and Seat. Appeal may be taken to the General Land Office by Underwood and his as signees.
 E The registers discovery of fraud in this case is made the basis of a scat ter-gun charge in the Los Angeles l ines that Hand frauds have con- |tinued to flourish in the Imperial Val ley, despite the active investigation |of special agents connected with the General Land Office at Washington, and the San Diego Union shouts in ,black type: More frauds in Imperial Valley lands"
 One illegal assignment hardly con |stitutes an epidemic of fraud, and the established truth is that Imperial Val Hey land business has been remarkably free from crookedness. Conflicting rul- |iDgs and Inconsistent practices in the Land Office have caused some com. plications in the matter of assign ments, but investigation by special agents has failed to discover any ex tensive irregularity that could be called fraudulent. The Los Angeles and San Diego papers are making a mountain of a molehill.
