MRS. WARDWELL BACK
Afflicted Widow of Late General
Returned to Los Angeles = Now
Confined in Contagious Ward of
Hospital.

Los Angeles, Aug. 20.-Mrs. Isabel
Wardwell, the afflicted widow of the
late General David K. Wardwell. re-
turned to Los Angeles last night on a
Southern Pacific train. An ambulance
from hospital met the train and Mrs.
Wardwell, who was found locked i'll
was taken, with the aid
of two hospital attendants, to the con-
tagious ward Of the hospital.
Mrs. Wardwell showed evidences Of
a disordered mind and appeared in
poor health. The authorities do not
believe she escaped from the custody
Of the Arizona authorities, and it is
said she was returned by their action.
A Times dispatch from Bisbee says
Mrs. Wardwell fought against leaving
Tombstone and had to be restrained
from jumping out of the automobile
during night ride Of thirty miles to
Benson, where she boarded the train
She also made desperate fight against
being put on the train, which was held

unanimously by the democratic con-
vention after a demonstration of one
hour and five minutes.
Notwithstanding Governor Johnsons
positive and oft repeated declaration
that he would not be a candidate for
denomination, which declaration had
lately been coupled with the threat that
if he was named against his will the
convention would have to do its work
over again, the convention ignored the
governors wishes. Yesterday when
told that he might be made the NOM
inee despite his protests, Governor
Johnson said that if he was nominated
the ticket would be without a head, for
he would not lift a finger to further
his candidacy. 1t was thought that ii
this emphatic declaration had its effect
that j. G. Armson, mayor Of saltwater,
Mimi, would undoubtedly be the NOM
inee.
Mayor Arnson, however, stated that
under no circumstances would I've be
candidate. He said he regarded it as
Governor Johnson's duty to answer the
call of the party and make the race
even at a great personal sacrifice.
Governor Johnson today announced
he would accept the nomination ten
dered him by the democratic conven-
tion yesterday.

Sherman, Hitchcock and Others
Interested in New York
Campaign Confer
MEETING HELD IN OYSTER BAY
Discuss Hughes Availability With
President - sherman's Speech
i PIeases Taft - Bryan's Mascot Mis-
behaves and is Put to Work on Lawn
at Fairview-Johnson Accepts.

Oyster Bay, Aug. 20-James S. Sher-
man, the vice presidential candidate,
Chairman Hitchcock, Assistant Secre-
tary of State Bacon and several otfl-
er well known men, will be the presl-
dents guests at luncheop today. Ac-
cording to political gossip there will be
a conference on the question of Gov
ernor Hughes availability as cam
didate to succeed himself.
The president today received mem
bers of the team which piloted the
American automobile to victory in the
New York-Paris race. The president
also took look at the machine which
won the race and the flag which it
carried around the world. Walter
Wellman. who planned to reach the
north pole in an airship, spent few
hours with the president.
Best Man is Wanted.
Since Hitchcock's visit to the pres
ident fortnight ago he spent consid-
cradle time in consideration of the
New York situation with such state
leaders as visited the New York head
quarters. Hitchcock realized the gov
ernorship question one of the first i'm
portant matters that must be settled
before the national campaign can be
opened in this state. indications are
that Hitchcock is ready to recommend
to the president what action he be-
lieves should be taken. The prepon-
derance of evidence which he is to sub
NIT to the president is thought to be
in favor Of the retention Of Hughes as
the head of republican affairs in the
state. Roosevelt approved the policy
of Hitchcock and made number OF
suggestions to further bring out the
sentiment Of majority of the repuo-
licans Of the state. To ascertain who
is the man - the best vote getter-
and not who is not the man" was the
substance of his advice.
National issues were taken up in the
conference, and 1t was agreed that at
tention must be paid to the currency
and banking questions.

Operators Are Firm and Lockout May
Come Within 48 Hours.
Pittsburg, Aug. 20.-Unless officials
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea back down there will be declared
within the next forty-eight hours one
of the biggest strikes in the history OF
coal production here. Operators of the
Pittsburg district threw down the
gauntlet to the miners by announcing
that they would go no further in as
sisting their employees to maintain
union.
The leaders of the union miners had
demanded that employing operators
take off the pay of each miner an in
creased sum Of money each month for
the support Of the miners union. II
the operators would not do this there
was to be- a strike declared at once.
The operators yesterday refused to do
this and refused in such a manner as
to leave nothing for the miners Off
cials now to do but back down or de-
clare strike involving the 10000
miners of the Pittsburg district. Late
last evening a call for a meeting Of

NAMED
FOR WALSH ROAD
Court Takes Charge Of Chicago
u Eastern Illinois Company
Affairs
WAS CONSPICUOUS IN TRIAL
This and Another Company Promoted
With Funds From WaIsh's Line Of
Banks Which Later Failed = Chi
caeo Southern Also Asks for Re-
ceivership.

Chicago, Aug. 2O.-M. ]. Carpenter,
formerly president Of the Chicago &
Eastern Illinois railroad, today was
appointed receiver for the Southern
Indiana railroad by Federal Judge
Kohlsaat. Petitions. of intervention
We're filed by the Chicago Southern
railway asking for the extension OF
the receivership to that road. The
application was taken under advise
ment by Kohlsaat and the hearing
was continued to August %.
Notes under which the receivership
was procured were owned by the First
Trust and Savings bank, for account
of the associated banks, and were ac-
quired at the time these banks took
over the assets Of the John r. Walsh
banks. The receivership, it is said,
does not affect in any unfavorable way
Walsh, or the firm of J. r. Walsh &
Co. The receivership was made neces-
sary by the industrial depression and
was asked for the purpose of con-
serving the credit and resources of the
company.
The Southern Indiana was first ac-
quired by John r. Walsh in extending
his banking business from banking
lines to wider financial expansion, and
the methods employed to develop the
road and finance other railroad enter
prises formed large part of the trial
which preceded the conviction Of
Walsh on a charge of misapplying the
funds of the bank of which he was
president.
Much Secrecy Maintained.
An unusual feature of the court
proceedings was the secrecy employed.
The petition on which the receiver
was named was taken late last night
to Judge Kohlsaat's home and a deputy
clerk of court summoned to transcribe
the order. The silence was to forestall
an attempt by antagonistic creditors
to begin foreclosure suits, which would
hamper the adjudication of the whole
properties.

IOWA FALLS TAX LEVY.
Somewhat of an Increase Over Lev.
les of Past Years.

Special to Times-Republican.
Iowa Falls. Aug. 20.-The tax levy
for the city of Iowa Falls and the IN
dependent school district for this year,
will be somewhat Of an increase over
the levies of past years. Owing to the
installation of manual training and
number of other extraordinary eX-
penses, the school levy will be thirty
mills. This is nine mills in excess of
the school levy for 1907 Among the
changes of the city levies, is that of
the park levy, which is reduced one
mill Seven years ago, a two-mil park
tax was voted. This has continued for
seven years and has created a park
fund in excess of $1,000, besides MAX
ing many permanent improvements i'll
the park system of the city. 1t is
thought by the park board that one
mill, with the funds on hand will be
ample the coming year. The library
levy of two mills has proven made
quate, and this levy will be increased
one mill this year. While the school
levies are increased, the city levies are
reduced, being one and a half mills
less than for last year.

CARE OF INSANE
American System Of Dealing With un-
fortunates, Highly Recommended by
Members of Commission From Great
Rrifain

London, Aug. 20-Members of the
royal commission on the care and con-
troll of feebleminded persons, who in
the course of their Investigations Wis
ited the United States, have issued a
report in which they speak highly of
the American system of dealing with
these unfortunates, and the manage
ment of institutions where they are
assembled tIn most of the states Wis
tied by u.s." the report says, practical
measures for the solution of this prob
lem were more advanced and more sue
cessful in character than anything at
tempted in Great Britain. With regard
to lunatic asylums, the impression of
the commission is that American ipsti-
tutions are better designed, more
cheaply constructed, and more sue
cessfully managed, than the majority
in Great Britain.

experience of contesting with other

is no reason why he should not get

college at Ames He can get from
the Iowa library commission by mere
ly writing for it, books upon judging
stock and corn. He can spend his spare
time studying and preparing for the
contest.
Before a boy tries for the prize he
should be far enough along in his stud

best time to begin preparation Tor
trying for the prize is right now. Be
gin the preparation now for trying for
the prize at the 1909 state fair.
For the girls the scholarship prizes
are thus far not so large. The first
scholarship is 500 and the second $50
and the third SIS. But if the girls try
for the prizes in large numbers and
make demand for it it is more than
likely that the state board of agrlcul-
ture will make the scholarships as
large for the girls as for the boys All
that is needed is for the girls to show
an interest in it,
With the girls the problem is to mix
and bake one dozen baking powder
biscuit and cook one beef steak. The
finished product will count for 40 points
if perfect. The contestant must give
the recipe and the reason for it. For
the recipe a maximum of 90 points Is
allowed and for the reasons 40. making
a total of 100 points 1t would look as
tho most any bright girl between the
ages of 15 and 81 by spending two

mother ought to be able to make a
good showing at the contest. Gasoline

Only 1000 State Troops on
Duty in Springfield and Citi-
zens Show Alarm
MANY NEGROES ARE LEAVING
Exodus Continues in Increasing Num-
bers-Authorities Making Effort to
Overcome Effects of Failure Of cor-|
oner's Investigation to Fix Guilt fsr|
Lynchine.

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. 20.-The au.|
thorltles began today the task of over
coming the handicap on their efforts to
fix responsibility for the recent riot
caused by the failure of the coroner's
inquest to hold any one responsible for
the death of Scott Burton, the negro
lynched last Friday night. The open
verdict of the coroners jury was q,
blow to the hopes of the officials, who
saw in it a confirmation of the sus-
plcion that witnesses to the rioting
would fail to recognize the leaders Of
the mob when called upon to testify
in public proceedings.
The grand jury's Investigation was
continued today, but there was consid-
erably less enthusiasm regarding it's
work than was displayed two days ago.
Uneasiness Grows.
The departure of all except two
regiments caused renewal of threats
that there will be Something doing
after the soldiers leave" and this feel
ing was reflected in the anxiety mani
fest in all circles of the city. In fact
a renewal of rioting is expected mo-
mentarily. The negroes especially fear
that once the mob is started again no
power of the state can prevent serious
disorders. Only the Seventh regiment
of infantry and eight troops of state
cavalry are on active duty today. The
Second, Fifth and Third regimental
organizations broke camp this morn,
ing, reducing the military force to L.
900 men. This force may be reduced
still further tomorrow If the immed-
late return of normal conditions can
fbe accomplished by withdrawal Of
troops from the streets.
Quiet Prevails in City.
This morning was almost devoid Of
alarms. Some firing was heard in
outlying sections Of the city, but
for it. One sentry challenged the
shadow of a tree stirred by the wind,
and shot it when it refused to halt.
Another fired four times at a pile OF
refuse which failed to keep NOV
ing"
Word was resumed today in the
Tuxhorn minue, shut down because
of the refusal of whites and negroes
to work together. Orders Of the Offs
cials Of the miners union are RESPONSE
ible for this. Negroes continue leav-
ing town in increasing numbers.
Loper Back to Testify.
r. T. Loper, whose restaurant was
wrecked Friday evening, returned to
the city today, prepared to testify to
the actions and personality of the motn
before the grand jury. Loper says he
has no intentions of resuming busi-
ness in Springfield. He limited that his
testimony to the grand jury will result
in the Indictment of several persons
whom he recognized as leaders Of the
mob which destroyed his restaurant.
Military to Relinquish Control.
AS the result of a conference be-
tween Governor Deneen and General
Young. the military will relinquish
control of the city tomorrow. The sole
remaining regiment, the Seventh in-
fantry, will be held in reserve.
