Late senator from This District Sery
ed Briefly in Executive Capacity
While President of Senate.

The late Hon. II. V. Fisher of Gen-

time governor of Illinois During his
term in the upper house at Springfield
from this district after serving in the
lower branch of the general assembly,
Senator Fisher was president of the
senate. and it so happened that one
day both the governor and the lieu
tenant governor were absent from the
commonwealth simultaneously. and
hence Senator Fisher became acting
executive for the time being.
Senator Fisher was well known IA
Rock Island, where he had many warm
friends. He was a member of Rock
Island c0mmandery Knights Templar
and also Shriner. He made frequent
visits here and regarded the city as
a second home town. always taking IN

A DRAMATIC SCENE
At PAWRUSKA TRIAL
Hopes to See SCatfOId Bull
In Usage County to
Punish Guilty

Pawhuska, Okla, Aug. 30.-A dra-
matte scene characterized the closing
Of the preliminary trial of Mrs. Nettie
Brown, Cora Blumfield and Bert Brum
field, charged with completely in the
murder of p. H. Brown. Concluding a
forceful argument for the state, in
which he declared the defendants were
guilty of one of the most atrocious and
inhuman murders in the states his
tory, e. S. Scott, assistant prosecuting
attorney, said:
Il hope in a short time to see a scat
fold built in Usage county upon which
the neeks of the guilty will be broken. y
A storm of applause greeted the
statement and men arose in their
seats, waved their hats and cheered.
Order was not restored until the court
and the sheriff threatened to clear the
court room All of the defendants
were held without bail pending grand
jury action in November. Justice Nc
Cain declared that he would admit
Cora and Bert Brumfield to bail but
was without authority. 1t is expected
that the attorneys viii apply TO the
district Judge at Bartlesville for bail.
Mrs Brown and Cora Brumfield
were taken to the Washington county
Jail at Bartlesville and Alvin Brown
the confessed murderer, to the Tulsa
county Jail Bert Brumfield was re-
tained in the Usage county Jail.

HUSBANDS AND WIVES
AGREED To SWAP"

Egin, H., Aug 30.-A singular
story of an interchange of husbands
and wives, seemingly agreeable TO all
four parties concerned, has come to
light through the issuance of a mar.
riage license at Geneva, H., today to
William Mcpherson, %, and Mrs
Mary b. Warner 2S.
Each was granted divorce a year
age the former wife of Mcpherson
leaving for Cuba, Wis +, after the de
cree was issued She has since
been joined there by William War
ner, former husband of the woman
who figures in the new license issued
to Mcpherson today.
Previous to the courts action in
granting legal separation to both
couples, it had been understood that
the trade was mutually satisfactory
and it is supposed that a similar H.
cense will soon be taken out at Cuba
by Warner to wed Mrs. Mcpherson
All were residents of Elgin until tho
