Ottumwa, March 25.--The date for
the Iowa golf tournament has been set
by the president of the Iowa State Golf
Association, Lloyd r. Maxwell, and the
board of directors. LAS has been pre-
dicted, the second week in August was

title and other honors to be won IN
connection with the state tourney.
The Ottumwa course is only a nine

The theory Of suicide is prevalent
among the citizens there, and is borne
out by, THE inquest held by the order
of Coroner Hyatt of Abba. While the
verdict of the jury twas guarded and
no specific cause for death other than
by being run over by train, it was
brought out in the hearing before the
eoroner's, jury that Darby had been
found short in his accounts as agent
for the railroad ito the extent of about
$3.50. Another agent named Barnes,
from Blakesburg, was on duty in the
place of Darby when the death took
place, having been assigned ito the
station temporarily owing ito the
shortage of Darby and until the sue
cessor, Agent Koetting from Excelsior

TWO TICKETS AT NEVADA.
No Special Issue at Stake, Other Than
Sewage System.

Special to Times-Republican
Nevada, March 25-There will be
two tickets in the field at the NUM-
cipal election. the republican and the
democrat The republican ticket DIS
headed by William Gates, a pioneer
citizen of the town, who has served in
the same capacity before. The demo-
GRAFT ticket is headed by Sam White,
a retired farmer. There is no special
issue ait stake, other than the estab-
lishment of the sewage system. This
matter will not be contested at the
regular election, however, as 1t is to
be voted upon at a special election
called for Monday, April 26. The prop
osition Of bonding the town for $780,
900 for the construction of a sanitary
sewage system will then be submitted
to the voters. There is likely to be con-
siderable opposition to this PROPOSE
ton, and it is expected that a hot fight
at the polls will be the result. The
republican candidates as a rule, are
favorable to the sewage, while a num-
Der of the candidates on the democrat
ticket are strongly opposed to it. That
question will likely cut some figure
in the regular municipal election.

The former is in Jail here, and the
latter is out ON bond, but has been
in this city since the day after the
trouble, when he left Thornton under
the protection of Marshal Ingensoll.
