NFourned in Bridal Attire.

Belgrade, Jan. 9--A girl in bridal at- tire walked through the streets of Bel grade a few days since behind a cofan at a funeral in which she was chiof mourner. The funeral was that of a young Belgrade fisherman, to whom she was to have been married. He was the victim of a boating accident.
 The bride. weeping bitterly went on foot to the cemetery clad in the ear- meuts she had prepared for the mar riage ceremony. On the way back she covered her white dress with a black mourner's cloak, above which the bridal veil fioated weirdly.

A RebeIIlOus Prince.

Vienna, Jan. 9-Another painful scene has occurred between King Pe- fer of Servia and his son, the Crown Prince George. The Crown Prince en- tered a room in which a meeting of the Cabinet was being held on Sunday, al- though he had not been invited. When the King arrived he asked his son to withdraw, but the Grown Prince re- fused, and declared with heat: "I am the future King. and have right to be here. I must know what happens, and so shall take part in the Council"
 King Peter insisted that the Prince should leave, but without success, and a violent altercation ensued, during which the ministers left the room. leaving the King and his rebellious son together.

A Commerce Counsel.

The bill introduced by Meredith to
establish the office of commerce coun-
sci is regarded as one Of the most i'm
portant which has yet appeared. This
seems to be in line with the desires of
the shippers and especially the Corn
Belt meat producers and fulfills the
recommendations found in the mes
sage to the General assembly. The
counsel is to be appointed by the
Governor, to have an Office and as
sistance, and
TT shall be the duty of the COM
merce counsel to diligently Investigate
the reasonableness Of the rates charg-
ed. or to be charged for services rem
dered or to be rendered, by the public
service corporations, companies or as
| sociations. operating in whole or in
| part in the state of Iowa; and when
ever in the judgment Of said attorney
any of the charges affecting any of
the citizens or industries of the state
are undue, Unjust, unreasonable, un-
lawful, unduly prejudicial, or UNJUST
| ly discriminatory against any of the
citizens or industries Of the state of
Iowa it shall be the duty Of said at
torney to institute proceedings rela-
| tive to the said matters and to pros
ecute the same, presenting or assisting
in the presentation of such facts In a
lawful manner before the interstate
| commerce commission or the state
tribunals having jurisdiction over the
same and power to act in the prem
| ises.''
Senator Peterson introduced a bill
| to amend the law as to the liability Of
| employers in case of accidents. There
| is to be a determined effort on the
part Of the lalooring men Of the state
| this year to have the employers Iiabil-
| ity law changed so as to conform more
nearly to the national law passed by
congress since the Iowa law was
enacted. Already the representatives
of organized labor are active in the
| matter.
The bill introduced by Senator Van
Law contemplates some direct and
| simple method for cities and towns to
find out whether or not the rates
charged for gas water electricity. etc,
by public service corporation is
reasonable and fair. Specific authority
| is given the municipal authorities to
have access to the books and records
of such companies and to require
| sworn statements and reports-in
| short the power is to be lodged some
| where to find out whether or not rates
are reasonable, so there will be some
kind of basis for fixing the rates.

large decrease in the funds Of the
organization. On April J., 1908, 1t had
ON hand s931,996 and on Dec. 1, $685.
1897. The decrease he accounted for
by showing that $635,713.75 was ex-
pended during the year for aid of the
membership and that the general ex
pense Of the organization was s1s3,.
22s.3s. The total expense was $685.

Moon Wants Own Measure Repealed.
Senator Moons first move in his
second session will be to try to have
repealed the most important measure
which he got through at his first ses-
sion. This Is an act to permit the sur
vey and sale Of certain land in the Des
Moines river channel at Ottumwa. 1t
appears that when the preliminaries
had been gone through with and every
thing was ready to have the tract con-
veyed, the citizens discovered what
was going on and the whole matter
got into the courts. There is now no
chance Of anything being done. Gov
ernor Cummins had it in mind to veto
the BILL but was persuaded not to do
SO on the theory that 1t was harmless.
Parties who sought the land and had
1t surveyed are out their expenses
and have been demanding repayment
from the state but there is no way
this can be done save by an appropria-
tion and this may be asked.
