Claimed Woman Became Enamorsd OF
#. g. Mapes, and Deserts Husband
Upon Becoming EntansIsd in
Shady Transactions she Leaves
Mapes, Who Causes Her Arrest.

"A strange case, in which former
.Marshalltown girl, Nellie Dwyer, rs
said to be involved, comes from Bur-
lington, where +. B. Mapes and Mrs.
Nellie Dwyer Crowell, the latter OF
Omaha. are under arrest charged with
passing forged instruments.
The story OF the alleged crime is
told in a press dispatch from Burling-
ton as follows:
1.-The woman turns out to be the
legal wife Of d. F. Crowell, a reput-
able business man Of Omaha her
maiden name was Nellie Dwyel' and
her folks live at Marshalltown. Her
brother, William Dwyer, was IN Bur-
lington attending her preliminary ex-
animation and he has gone back to
Marshalltown to raise funds to meet
the bond against his sister, who is now
in Jail here. Her companion, Mapes,
also is under bond, and will undoubt-
edly go to prison as the proof against
him is positive. He Is wanted in Chi
cago and a number Of other cities for
obtaining money under false pretense.
"Mapes' plan OF operation was to
forge check on some we'll known bus
mess man and then with the Dwyer
woman, as his wife, pass it on some
business house where they would pur-
chase small bill OF goods.
Mrs. Crowell is a very handsome
woman and dresses strikingly. Mapes
is also fine looking specimen OF hui
mainly and the couple made quite an
impression wherever they gave gone
cit is stated that Mrs. Crowell at
tempted to get away from Mapes with
whom she had become entangled. She
left him and went to Marshalltown, but
was followed by Mapes. Then she fled
from there, giving it out that she had
gone to st. Paul. Instead she went to
Omaha where she joined her husband
'Mapes traced her to that city and fol-
lowed her. She spurned him and In
revenge he brought charges against
dler, claiming she had assisted him In
passing forged checks in Burlington
Thus he implicated himself and both
were arrested. 1t is said he is now try
ing to get out of the scrape, but 1t is
impossible to do so.
''F. b. Mapes was held to the grand
jury for the September term of court
by Squire Riepe, under $500 bonds"

who wanted q front seat, and were
willing to put up nickel got a COM

sure Of it they could pay their nickel

are five hundred of these chairs and
enough additional seats to bring the
seating capacity Of the tent up to $500.
The tent is one Of the best that could
be bought, is Of heavy kahki colored

tent can be made. Tent, seats, plat
form, canvas, fence, Seton Indian tents,

BUILDERS ATTENTION

pared to Fill All Orders Promptly =
Something Of Their Quality.

The Finkle Brick Company wish to
call your attention to the fine brick
never has been any question about the
clay in this locality, and the only draw
back was to find someone who UNI
derstood the making Of brick. When
Mr.. Finkle bought the old Arson brick
yards, the first thing he did was to
find an expert brick maker, and he
secured the services of Mr.. j. w.
Schreiner, who had been with the
Gladbrook people, to take charge of
this plant. Then they installed hy-
draulic machine with a pressure of
125 horsepower to the square inch
which enables them to take dry dirt,
pulverize, and press brick with a
smooth, hard finish; also with uni
formity of size, weight and strength.
These brick weigh one pound more
than brick made by hand, and are con-
siderably larger than the old style
brick are easier for the mason to
handle, and take less to the wall than
the smaller brick. To the builder this
will appeal. The brick are made in
ten grades, from the soft brick. that
you would use in the cistern, to the
fancy press brick, that goes on the
fronts Of fine store and residences. II
you are contemplating building, it will
pay you to call and see how we make
our brick, and get our prices. We have
on hand plenty of all kinds for immed-
late delivery.

WOMAN BADLY BURNED

Slight.
Mrs. Joseph ]. Siebert 205 South
First avenue, was seriously burned,
and narrowly escaped fatal injuries in
fire, caused by an explosion of gas
oline at her home at II o'clock this
morning. While cleaning a bed with
gasoline, in some unaccountable man
ner the gasoline caught fire, an ex-
plosion resulted and in an instant the
entire room was ablaze.
Mrs. Siebert was burned on both
hands, face and neck, and it may be
that she inhaled some of the flames,
but this could not be determined on
the first visit Of the physician who was
called. The burn on the left hand is
quite deep, and in addition to the pain
Mrs Siebert suffered seriously from
the nervous shock.
With the aid of her children, and by
fighting the flames which ignited her
dress, Mrs. Siebert was able to ex-
tinguish the fire.
The uptown department responded
to the alarm and put out the blaze In
the bedroom which, aside from damag-
ing some Of the furnishings OF the
room, did little other damage.
Mrs. Siebert's husband Is employed
by the A. E. Shorthill company.

Man Who Attempted to Shoot Officer

Man Who Attempted to Shoot Officer
Edgar Returns to Scene Of Crime.
William O'Keev, the man who, on
July 80, 1904, attempted to shoot Of
ficer Joseph Edgar when the latter had
arrested him, reached the city Tues
day might, and on the street accosted
the man whose life, In a moment of
passion, he had sought nearly four
years before. Edgar and O'Keev
greeted one another cordially, and at
police headquarters the ex-convict de-
clared that he held no grudge against
the officer, and that he, (O'Keey) had
only got "what was coming to him.
O'Keev says he has learned a lesson
and has had enough. He was asked
by Sergeant Goodale If he had cut
out the BOOZE" and to this the man
said that he thought he had. He said
that he had no craving for liquor now,
and that so far he had had nothing
stronger than little beer He was adj
yised by both Goodale and Edgar to
let even that alone.
O'Keev is now So years old, but Is
well preserved. and does not look to
be more than Is, even tho he has
served three years and nine months In
prison. He was convicted of attempted
granddaughter, and sentenced to five
wears. He reduced his time by good
behavior.
O'Keev Is under Indictment in Tana
county for larceny from a building, be-
ing accused Of having stolen a quantity
of jewelry from a Chelsea store. The
prison officials took up his case at
Toledo, because lle had been model
prisoner, and it was understood when
he was released from the penftentiary,
a week ago last Saturday, that he
would not be rearrested on the Tama
indictment. O'Keev is a hat fnisher
by trade, and says he has always been
a hard drinker. He says that the ma
jority of the men in Fort Madison
prison today can trace their downfall
directly to drink. O'Keev Is not the
mans correct name, but he has care
fully guarded his identity, for the sake
of his wife and children and other rel
atives who, it is said, are highly re-
spected.
The police are quite curious to know
lust why O'Keev should have come
back here. They suspect that he has
come for the "swag" that was sup
posed to have been planted" when
he was arrested. 1t was said when the
prisoner was in jail here awaiting
trial that two boxes of jewelry would
be turned over to the authorities if the
case against OKeev were dropped.
O'Keev was offered transportation to
Marshalltown, or it's equivalent in
money, when he left the prison, and he
chose the ticket to this city.

bird.
The lateness of the hour. the arti-

main at least thirty minutes before
darting away to its nest in the sur
rounding shrubbery.
