MARRIED ON THE STAGE.
A Gay and Fes1ivs Time at Dubuque,
With Special Features.

Dubuque, Feb 15.-Miss Rosie
Schranz and Mr.. w. j. Lowe were
united in marriage by Justice Buckley
upon the stage of the Grand at the con-
clusion Of the performar ce of Car
men" by the Van Dyke-Eato Company.
The theater was packed to suffoca-
ton, and altho the performance was a
good one, the vast audience shifted
about restlessly until the play was
ended, for it was the unique spectacle
of marriage in theater, not the
show, which had attracted the crowd
thither.
During the play, the couple occupied
lower hight hand box. which had
been profusely decorated with Ameri-
can flags and bunting for the occasion
a reception and supper followed at
the home OF Mr. and Mrs Plagler.
which numerous guests attended. MANY

side, an impromptu band was organ
lied. and Of all the inharmonious mus
ic that was ever heard in the north
end. the results of said aggreaation's
efforts were the limit.

DRAWBACK TO PRESS
Official cosnizanee Taken of Several
Bills introduced Into Legislature, to
Cut Down Detailed Publication of
Official Matters.

Special to Times-Republican.
Webster City, Feb. 15.-NewspapeI
men over the state of Iowa, who are
the least organized of any profession
bills have been introduced into the leg
islature, which are against the best in
terests of the press. Notice has also
been given that other similar bills will
later be introduced. Official cognizance
of the situation has just been taken by
the members of the Upper Des Moinas
Editorial Association, in their session
at Algona. The members of this organ
iZations decided to start an organized
fight on any attempt to cut down de-
tailed publication of such official mat
ter as proceedings of county boards of
supervisors, other county. city. town
ship and state officials, publications of
financial reports, ETC., in which the
ers, are vitally interested.
Already in many counties of the
state. no attempt is made by officials
to fully comply with all the laws per-
tanning to publicity of official acts.
For instance, in few counties of Iowa,
are reports of township trustees pub
lished. and in many counties no effort
whatever is made to publish the an
nual financial statement required by
law to be done by the auditors The
theory of these laws is that the people
are entitled to know what their Of
ficials are doing. The action of the
Upper Des Moines editors is merely
by way of seeing to it that all publicity
of official actions now required is still
maintained on the statute books. ana
that officials over the state be re-
quired to obey the laws. 1t is be-
lieved that newspaper in general over
the state, as well as the public, will
warmly support this program

HOUSE HITS KNOX
Rejects Senate Bill Removing consti-
tutionaI Bar OF Senator's Serving in
Taft's Cabinet.

Rejects Senate Bill Removing Constr
tutional Bar OF Senator's Serving in
Taft's Cabinet.
Washington, Feb 15.-The house to-
day rejected the senate bill removing
the constitutional bar to Senator Knox
serving as secretary of state
Debate on the bill was opened by
Clayton, of Alabama, democrat who
Missouri, opposed the bill, which he
said was simply an effort to override
the constitution by statute. Mann, re-
publican, of Illinois, opposed the pass
age of the bill on the ground that
Knox's appointment to the cabinet
would be unconstitutional whether the
bill was passed or not. He said he did
not intened to be party to a con-
spiracy to violate the constitution.
AS the result of a vive voce vote on
the bill. Speaker Cannon declared II
had been carried, but Kicker rallied the
opponents Of the measure and forced
roll call. BY a vote of 179 to 123, in
which all party lines were broken, the
bill was rejected, the necessary two
thirds required to suspend the rules
not being Forthcoming.
Immediately after this result was
announced the committee on rules held
a session and reported a rule whereby
the bill could be passed by majority
vote. and to take up the bill this af-
ternoon and dispose of it.
Passes Under New Rule.
Under the new rule the bill reducing
the salary of secretary of state was
adopted in the house 147 to 129. This
removes the bar to Kpox's acceptance
of the position.

ELIOT FOR AMBASSADOR.
Taft's Personal Friends believe Him
Slated,

Washington, Feb. 15.-klmong the
men who may be classed as the warm
personal friends of President Elect
Taft there is belief that he may ask
DR.. Charles William Eliot, the retiring
president of Harvard University, to
become the ambassador to The court Of
st. James, succeeding Wlitelaw, Reid.
Matters of this sort, as Senator Knox
once said in relation to President Nc
Kinley's reputed desire to name a Ger
tain man to a high diplomatic post,
"are not bluntly stated. They are rath-
er the subject Of delicate negotiation,
extending sometimes over a period Of
months In which the attitude of either
side is gradually defined. Thus, what
ever may be the issue, neither of the
two parties chiefly concerned is ex-
posed to a rebuff or humi lation. An
offer is never made until the president
ascertains the position taken by the
other man. And no man is ever can
didate for a place of this SORT. 1t must
come to him by reason of fitness"
1t is possible that not all mon now
in high official position have held to
Senator Knox's rigid rule that "no
man ds ever candidate for a place of
this sort"

So PERISH IN PENGUIN WRECK.
Rats Prove Better Than Boats for
Survivors of Disaster.

Wellington, n. T.. Feb. 15.-Fifty-
two bodies have been recovered from
the wrecked steamship Penguin of the
Union Steamship Company. of Well
ington, which went on the rocks Fri
day night off Cape Terawhiti. SIX OF
those aboard the Penguin are unac-
counted for In all the passengers and
crew numbered about 100.
The ship struck about 10 o'clock at
night. but the captain remained on the
bridge, and after his vessel slid into
deep water was able to steer her closer
in to shore. The seas We're running
nigh and the small boats and RATS
which We're hastily launched could not
withstand the waves. Both boats and
RATS were overturned, but the RATS
righted themselves a number of times.
After several hours of buffeting the
majority of the survivors on the RATS
reached the shore.

WOULD LOSE ALL PATRONAGE
President Has Power to Transfer Az
Census Appointments to Civil serv-
ice - Delay Will Not Benefit Be-
cause Taft is With Roosevelt on
Observation-Disclosures flows.

washington, Feb. 15.-Reasons Of 1e-
lay by the house in its efforts to again
pass the bill making provision for tax
ing the thirteenth census, which was
recently vetoed by the president, arc
gradually leaking out.
There is no doubt that large ma
jority, probably the necessary two
thirds Of the members of the house
would be willing to vote to pass the
vetoed measure regardless of the pres
adentss wishes, but they seem to have
discovered that such action on their
part probably would be futile. They
desire the passage of the law because
of the fact that it provides for the ap-
pointment of census employees with aut
compelling them to pass g. competitive
examination, which is the ground OF
the presidents objection.
The house and senate might pass the
measure over the presidents veto,
making 1t incumbent on the members
of congress to name each quota Of ..p-
pointees for the new census. On the
other hand if it became apparent the
bill would be thus treated by the house
the president has it in his power to
anticipate such action by naming the
entire census force if the classified
service by an executive order. The
plan of postponing action on the bill
until after March 4, when there will be
a new president, was then suggested,
but it is stated upon whai. appears to
be excellent authority, that the discov-
cry has now been made that Taft re-
CARDS the civil service much as does
Roosevelt, and the future tf the bill is

Witnesses Declare secret service Op-
erations Have Not Been l1ampered.
Washington, Feb. Irresponsible
officials connected with the detection
of crime in four different branches of
the government have just testified in
substance that the limitation on the use
nf the secret service operations of the
treasury department has not been in
furious to their respective services.
Their testimony, taken during the
hearings on the sundry civil appro-
priat1on bill, was made public today
by the house committee on appropria-
tions. With the testimony of Secretary
Garfield and Attorney General Bona
parte it is relied upon by the commit
naittee to refute the claim that the linn
itation placed last year on the secret
service Of the treasury department has
worked to the interest of the criminal
classes. All who were examined on the
subject disapproved of the suggestion
of a central detective bureau and all
expressed satisfaction with existing
conditions. None could recall a de-
n1and for secret service operative Of
the treasury department during the
year.

STORM MOVING EAST
Is Leaving Much Suffering and De-
struction in Its Wake-Heavy Loss
Among Cattle Is Feared-Traffic Is
Badly Hampered.

Chicago, Feb 15.-Following the eS-
ample of January's blizzard. the sleet
storm which has tied up the middle
west. is moving eastward. leaving suf-
fering and destruction in its wake. In
Nebraska, the temperature has fallen
below zero, and in Texas it is unus-
ually cold. 1t is feared that there will
be heavy loss among cattle. Thous-
ands of telegraph poles are down in
Missouri. Iowa and neighboring states,
while passenger traffic has been badly
hampered by heavy snowfall. In Min
nesota, Michigan, Illinois. Indiana and
Ohio, similar conditions prevail. A cold
wave is in prospect for some days in
the northwest.
One of the serious results due to the
blizzard. is the decentralization of street
railway service in cities and the tieup
of interurban traffic thruout the coun-
try. The indications are, however, that
the blockade will be speedily lifted

a tiny r;vulet not deep nor swift
enough to carry a pulp log over the
brink, is flowing over the American side
of Niagara, Falls. A strong northeast
wind which has blown since Friday has
held back the water and allowed the
ice to gain foothold Two employees of
the American reservation walked from
Prospect Point nearly to Bath Island
yesterday.
A great wall of ice runs from the
head of Goat Island to the American
mainland This wall has even en-
croached on the Canadian channel,
greatly diminishing the flow over the
horseshoe The gorge below is choked
and the rapids have lost their fury
This is only the third time that this
combination of wind and ice has thus
affected the falls since the white man
came here.

FOR SALE; 1000 DRUG STORES.

Topeka, Kan. Feb 15.-Do you want

pick of more than 1000 which are on

per these days has from one to a doz-
en- advertisements reading: For Sale
Cheap; drug store: owner desires
to retire from business"
The secret of the sudden determina-
ton of so many druggists to retire is
that the legislature is about to pass a
law cutting them out of their chief
source of revenue-the liquor trade.
The senate bill already passed stops
the sale Of liquor by the drug stores for
any purpose whatever. 1t is the most
drastic law enacted in any state on the
prohibition question. 1t not only pro-
vides for absolute prohibition but also
restores the inquisition and gives i'm
munity to people who testify in "Joint'
cases. Legislators say the bill is
bound to become a law, Kansas drug
gists seem to think SO too.
