result of a colossal conspiracy on
he part of the justice at his trial and
the authorities who prosecuted him,
and that Governor Higgins had no le-
gal right TO commute the sentence to

1t is life size it is composed of Just
three pieces of wood. One makes the
head, body and an arm. The other
arm is made of two pieces, for it is
raised SO as to have the hand touch

as if it were bronze.
There also is colossal leg of Chris

broken from a statue and captured by
Bonaparte's army. This was given to
representative of the society In
1S49.
Hanging in the vestry of the church
is the Lords prayer, written in 81 Ian

called at the Bethel who was unable
to find the prayer in his own tongue.
In the main part of the church, ia
cling the organ, is an ancient clock.
Recently 1t was repaired and the man
who did the work said he had never
seen clock like it and that it must
be several hundred years old.

KlDNAPs OWN CHILDREN.
Father Takes Sons From Soldiers
Orphans Home.


Davenport, Sept 1.-Two little boys
by the name of Carlisle and Lloyd
Smith were kidnapped from the Or
phans' home by their father, G. e.
Smith. yesterday, but they have been
located at the home of their grand
parent, Charles Smith, at Agency,
Iowa, and will be brought back again
within a few days.
The grandparent is guardian Of the
two children and had them sent there
about a year ago, claiming the father
could not care for them.
Monday afternoon the father came
to visit them and spent some little
time, but not until yesterday morning
did the authorities realize that they
had been taken away. Then the au-
thorities got busy and it was learned
that they had been sent to the grand
parents at Agency, Iowa, and arrange
ments were made for their return.
What object the father had in talk
ing the children away could not be
learned as he made no complaint at
any time and in fact had no authority
to do so as they are out of his charge.
The two little boys are bright little
fellows and have done remarkably
vel lsince they were put at the home.
The grandparents have been well
pleased with their progress and were
anxious that they should be returned
again.

Mt. Pleasant, Sept because he
was patient and kindly to one Of his
prisoners, Sheriff Goe was rewarded
with secret information which unques-
tionably saved his life. Some time ago
a prisoner was discharged. Before
leaving the premises he called Sheriff
Goe to one side and stated that mas
much as the sheriff had been consider

He startled coe by announcing that
one of the prisoners, a man named
Corbett, was planning to assassinate
the sheriff at the earliest possible OPP
portunity and that he had concealed
on his person a razor which had been
smuggled to him by his wife.
Corbett, it will be remembered, is the
man who escaped from the Dakota
insane asylum, worked here as a
chased by the sheriff out near High
land, where a pistol battle took place
before he was apprehended. The fact
is established that Corbett is an es-
capped insane patient, but he is being

and larceny.

AS soon as Sheriff Goe heard of the
plot to kill him he went after Corbet1

Bogus Checks in Waterloo.
Waterloo, Sept. City Detective A.
P. Houston wired the local police We'd
nesday afternoon that he had arrested
Miss Katherine Teisinger, alias Nellie
Carlton, IL years old, on a charge Of
forgery. She is thought to be the young
lady who passed six worthless checks
in Waterloo last week and signed the
names of four Waterloo ladies and two
parties from Cedar Falls.
The officers secured a good descrip-
ton of the girl from places where she
had cashed the checks and concluded
she was the guilty party. Detective
Houston went to Des Moines Monday
and learned that she had been employ
ed at a stand in Ingersoll park, but had
been released ten minutes before he
arrived, and had left the park. He
made a search and has succeeded in
locating the girl, and Sheriff Shores
left Wednesday afternoon for Des
Moines to bring her back to the city.
She has been arrested on two for
mer occasions, the last time being
taken up for stealing dress goods from
an east side business concern.

CUTS TIME TO DENVER.
Burlington Road Lops Four Hours Off
Former Schedule.

Burlington Road Lops Four Hours OF
Former Schedule.
Chicago, Sept. "a day to Dem
ver," or a looping off of over four
hours between Chicago and the Colo
RADIO capital, is the ideal toward which
the western railroads, and at their
head the Burlington, are working.
1t is probable that the Hill system
will be the first to cut schedules and
to open new era of high speed in
the west. The Burlington has been
trending that way for several years
and is in a position to inaugurate the
move for faster time
The purpose of expenditures totaling
nearly s5O,Ooo,0O0 by the Burlington
system in track Improvement, bridge
building, new telegraph facilities, and
years yesterday was admitted to be
as a preparation for a sensational re-
duction of fast train schedules from
Chicago to Denver.
The Chicago-Denver time will be cut
by the Burlington for its two flyers
under a novel safeguard which has
been employed successfully for two
years, registering speed recorders on
the locomotives. These recorders have
enabled engineers to maintain a uni
form maximum speed without reckless
running on down grades.
The equipment for these trains for
which such lavish expenditures have
been made is said to be Of new and
distinctive type that will outclass any
thing in service on eastern roads OF
in the United States.
The Burlington's reduction of its
Chicago Denver time is a forerunnel
of time reductions later by the con-
Meeting Hull lines, which in year OF
two will bring Seattle and other Pa
cific coast cities some ten hours near
er to Chicago than at present.
