Special to Times-Republican.
Creston, July 14.-Fulfilling the
promise made to his dying father thirty
years ago, Judge Thomas Harris, of
Lincoln, ILL.,, last week liquidated debts
amounting to between $4,000 and 3d.
900, among creditors at Bedford, this
state, to whom his father died insol-
vent The older Harris was a farmer,
and forunte, the tickle jade, came not
his way. He lived for time near
Platteville, and later moved to farm
near Bedford. On his dying bed, the
memory of the obligations haunted
him, and the son promised his father
that as soon as he was able, he would
meet all of the debt
He kept a memoranda of them all,
and twenty-four years ago he went to
Illinois, where he studied law, and
gradually worked himself up to his
present position, of Judge of the cir
cult court of Illinois, to which he was
recently elected. Some of the creditors
had moved away, and some We're dead,
but the money was paid to the heirs of
those who were dead, and the drafts
placed in the hands of the proper au-
thorities to reach those who had NOV -
away, and thus the son kept sacred the
promise made to a dying parent.

Paroled Seymour Banker Must Sta

Paroled Seymour Banker Must Stand
Trial on Pending indictments.
Fort Madison, July 14.-Judge Henry
Bank denied writ Of habeas corpus
in the case of Leroy Ware, former
cashier of the wrecked Farmers and
Drovers' Bank of Seymour, Iowa, who
recently was paroled from the state
penitentiary here. Upon his release at
Tallman of Corydon, he was rearrested
upon remaining indictments pending
against him in Wayne county. He i'm
mediately began habeas corpus pro-
ceedings upon the ground that pris-
oner paroled by authority of the state
board and the governor could not
be deprived of his liberty on charges
substantially the same as those upon
which he was originally sentenced.
Twenty-Five indictments altogether
were brought against Ware, as a re-
suit of the failure Wares trial was
postponed several times on motion of
the defendants attorney Finally Judge
H. M. Towner made Ware come to
trial and he promptly plead guilty to
one Of the twenty-five charges and
was sentenced to serve five years in
the penitentiary at Fort Madison. He
had been in prison. only about one
year, when the state board recommends
ed his parole, which was granted by
the governor.
The action Of the board was bitterly
Presented at Seymour, where many peo-
pie lost heavily in the wreck, and the
county attorney lost no time in renew
ing the prosecution.
The denial of the writ means that
Ware will have to stand trial on some
of the remaining indictments.

WAY OUT OF PAVING rANeLE.
Mason City Property Owners to Sig,
Waivers on Curbino Contract.

Mason City Property Owners to Sign
Waivers on CURLING Contract.
Mason City July IA way out of
the paving tangle caused by the fail
ure Of NJ. Tschirgi & Sons to make a
bid for curbing construction was found
by the city council, which ordered the
city solicitor to draw up waiver
which is to be signed by all of the
property owners and by Which they will
waive any right to question the validity
of the contract because of it's technical
fault. BY this plan the cooperation
of the property owners on these two
streets will of course be necessary, but
it is the opinion Of the council that
in face of the extremely low bid made
by M. Tschirgi & Sons none of the
property owners will refuse to sign this
waiver. This will mean that the paving
will be constructed at cost Of $1.19 a
square yard and the curbing for 40
cents per lineal foot, that price for
curbing being as low as any offered
when bids on. the new paving were
received. 1t is estimated that the cost
of this improvement will be $4,000
and that this. figure is $4,000 lower
than that of any other contractor hav-
ing offered a bid for the work.

Ackley. July 14.-From the Pacific

A county ditch for draining the

be made as valuable as the higher
sites. Some of the cellars are filed
with water during rainy seasons on
account of poor drainage, which, of
course, will produce unsanitary effects
