Is Not a Surprise.

II is not a surprise that the suits
have been filed, for since the develop
ment of the Kieran tangle. it has been
known by friends of the Villa de Chan
tai that the local institution was in
volved to the extent possibly of $4,000
There has never been any fear, how
ever, that the sisters will be unable to
Withstand the storm, and meet all just
claims in due time.

SHE HAD SEVEN HUSBANDS.

Carolyn Edna, who enjoys the dis
tinction of having had seven hus-
bands at one time. is today enjoying
one less of those luXuries.
AT Newton yesterday afternoon
Judge McHenry annulled her mar
riage to John Perry of Minnesota,
who was husband number 3.
Perry showed that the woman had
two other husbands when he mar
ried her, and Judge McHenry cut the
nuptial cord then and there.
Perry said that his wife told him
she had an income of 500 per
month. but that he afterward found
that her income was the bank ac-
count of previous husband named
Carlson.
Carolyn Edna is now thought to
be in the west. She was quite stun
ming to look upon, but was rather
large. for when she went away she
had a complete suit of mans attire
with her. and the overalls she pur-
Chased measured 80 inches around
the waist-Des Moines Daily Capital

TAG DAY
TAKES TOWN

The new hospital will be an as
sured fact in few weeks, if the en-
thusiasm over Tag day means any
thing. All over the city people are
talking of the scheme and promising
to help with money as well as by
personal effort. More ladies are
needed. as it is intended to make a
thorough canvass of the entire town.
Some can work in the morning, some
in the afternoon. some in the evening
and all will be welcomed. The plan
of work will be laid out at a meeting
on Thursday at $3.50 pm. at St. Mat
thew's rectory, and stations as
signed. Please come and help make
the arrangements perfect. that there
may be no hitch on Saturday when
we hope the sum received may be
enough to start the hospital very
soon. Then the people of Mesa coun-
ty can be accommodated when sick
ness lays them low. Come and help
on Thursday.

BORAH WON'T
REACH HERE

William E. Borah, United States
senator from Idaho, will not be in
Grand Junction this evening to make
speech at the Auditorium.
This morning Chairman Parker of
the Mesa county republican central
committee received a message from
Senator Borah stating that he was
"a hours behind time as a result of
a freight wreck in Montana and was
forced to cancel his speaking engage
ment for Salt Lake City last night
and for Grand Junction tonight.
Consequently, the republican rally
to have been held tonight has been
called off.
The announcement of the cancella-
ton comes as great disappointment
to many republicans who were anx-
ious to hear the distinguished Ida
hoau.

BRYAN AND TAFT
WILL MEET
THERE
Especial to The sentinel. ]

Chicago, Oct. 6.-With William H.
Taft, William j. Bryan and WI Ting
Fang as it's guests of honor and prin-
cipal speakers, the es-to-the-Gulf
Deep Waterway convention will be-
gin it's sessions in the Auditorium to-
morrow.
Judge Taft is scheduled to speak
tomorrow morning at the opening
session, and will meet Mr.. Bryan at
the Chicago Association of Commerce
waterways dinner" tomorrow even
ing.
Owing to the non-political nature
of the gathering, both Mr.. Taft and
Mr.. Bryan will confine their remarks
to waterways and commercial devel-
opment, and campaign issues will be
carefully ignored
There will be no question as to
which of the candidates will occupy
the seat at the right hand of the
chairman. 1t will be occupied by Mr..
Taft at the express wish of the DEM
ocratic nominee and his friends.
Chairman Mack declared that Mr..
Taft, as recent member of the pres
ent administration. was clearly en-
titled to the place of honor at the
feast. The Ohioan. therefore. will
sit at the right hand of President
Hall. and the Nebraskan at the left.
In addition to the rival candidates
for the presidency. many other fa-
nous men will gather at the ban
quet. Particular interest attaches to
the speech to be delivered by WI
Ting Fang, the Chinese minister.
The primary object of the Water
ways congress is to interest the gov
ernment in a general plan for deep
ening the channels of the Mississippi,
Missouri, Ohio and other rivers and
the construction of canals which will
give direct water transportation
line from the Great lakes to the Gulf
of Mexico.
Much has already been accom-
plished by the congress toward these
projects and it is believed to be only
a matter of few years until a great
cnain of adequate waterways win
link the Mississippi valley.

WAS CAUSE MURDERED?
Slight Clues Found in Visit by Onicers
to Willard.

Dr. H. H. Keith, coroner. John Wiki
erson, sheriff, John Schenck, county at
torney, and r. L. Thomas, clerk of the
district court, spent a portion of Fri
day in an attempt to secure evidence
concerning the mysterious death of
Joseph Cause. The inquest is set for
September 30.
Cause was the young man who was
found in a dying condition beside the
Rock Island track near Willard a week
ago. He was brought to Keith's hos
pital, and died, without regaining con-
seriousness. several hours later. His
body was later identified by relatives
from Jacksonville. Ill.
There is some suspicion OF foul play
connected with the death of Cause.
A man named Adams, who lives near
Willard. saw Cause and two other men
under a bridge east of Willard, and
they seemed to be Quarreling. The
story has also been circulated about
Willard, that a man Of Causes de-
scription was seen in that town the
day before the injured man was found,
and that he seemed to be supplied with
money. If this was Cause, he was
robbed, as he had only cents in his
pocket when found.
One sleeve of the mans coat had
been badly torn in the injury which
caused his death, and the men who
first found him state that the ground
looked like the body had been drag
ged a short distance beside the track.
This bears out Sheriff Wilkerson's
theory that the young man attempted
to board a train. was caught in some
manner and dragged. The theory of
foul play, however, is given color by
the nature Of the wound which caused
death. The back OF the head was
caved in in a manner which suggested
a coupling pin or other blunt weapon.
The trip to willard Friday was made
in DR.. Keith's automobile, and some
record breaking time was made on
good stretches Of road.

Mrs. Myra McHenry, the partner of
Carrie Nation and the street speaker
who has been acquainted with every
thing and everybody in Topeka for the
last five years, claims that the Topeka
police are fine bunch of men. She
went down to the station to see them
late Friday afternoon and in talking
with a State Journal reporter this
afternoon she said:
at like that Chief Eaton. 1 never
did have a fellow look me straight in
the eye like that man did. 1 don't go
much on sentiment, but 1 never saw
such a good looking blue eye in my
life. I believe he is good man. He
is keeping this town in lots better con-
dition than the Wichita bunch and I
have hung around this town enough
to know about things. The chief and
his officers treated me mighty nice
Yesterday and 1 know they are friends
of mine"
When asked about the visit Chief
Eaton said: Eyes, Mrs. HcHenry was
down to see me yesterday. She is a
good friend of mine and never gives
the boys any trouble and he smiled.

In another part of this issue the
Freeholders' Insurance company pub
lish their statement at the close of
business June 80, 1908. The state
ment is a remarkable showing for SO
young a concern, it shows a steady
growth in assets and character of in
vestments. On March 8, 1905, their
statement showed their assets to be
$115, 900 and three years later on June
80, 1908, the assets amounted to $780,
476.95, an increase of nearly 800 per
cent. This is due to the conservative
management Of its secretary man.
ager. Mr.. G. A. Bailey.
The Freeholders is a home institu-
ton and should be given encourage
ment by home people. Why is it that
so many of our home people go east
to loan money when such COM
panies as the F'reeholders will furnish
loans at the same rate of interest, and
by so doing are keeping our money
at home.
