'ANANIAS" CLUB HAS
BECOME OVERCROWDED

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Colonel
Roosevelt refused today to deny or
confirm the report that he founded
the "Jackass Club" and had installed
United States District Judge A. B.
Anderson as charter member.
According to the story, Roosevelt
is alleged to have remarked at re-
ception in his honor OF the Columbia
club in indianapolis that Judge An
derson's ruling in the New York
libel suit was "The ruling of a
damned crook and a jackass.
The colonel said today: There is
nothing | can say about this matter.
1t Is just the kind Of thing that a
man can expect in the closing days
of the campaign. There have been
other similar instances.
ut can be definitely understood
that / will not affirm or deny any
statements made by third and fourth
parties regarding what said to them
in a private conversation. The effort
to draw me into saying something
publicly is too obvious.
II shall say nothing regarding
any alleged remarks that I do not
make publicly or in regard to any
statement supposed to have come
from me but not over my signature. "

Council Bluffs. Oct. s.--Another
climax in the exciting feud at
Atlantic, growing out OF the tax
controversy. occurred last night when
County Attorney Goodspeed attacked
William Prall, the well-known capital
ist. and one Of the applicants for the
reinstatement of the railroad tax case.
After the encounter Goodspeed went
before Mayor Straight and pleaded
guilty to fighting. Goodspeed made
this statement:
II regret exceedingly that 1 hit an
old man, but that is the only regret
have in the matter. propose to make
any insinuation against my integrity
and honesty hereafter, a personal at
fair, and I will get whatever personal
satisfaction out of any coward who
ampusns them"
Goodspeed said he encountered Prall
as he left his office, where he had been
searching the law on libel, and had
found that the law provided no salts
faction for the injured party, and was
in a nasty frame of mind when he up
braided Prall for his charges against
him, Goodspeed.
II am getting tired Of being malign-
ed, and something will happen to some
Of those fellows who are peddling lies
about me-" said the attorney.
Prau Is 70 years old. He is a re-
tired farmer. The assault only added
fuel to the already burning fires and
the city Of Atlantic is boiling.

Webster City Oct. S,-The enter
prisins little city of Jewell is in the
throes of a dance controversy which
bids fair to rival the famous dance
row at Ellsworth last winter. In the
latter town the trouble arose between
the dance hall proprietors and the
churches In Jewell the trouble has
sprung UP over the manner in which
the annual farmers picnic is conducted.
1t has been Gus tomary in years gone by
to close the picnic with a dance. IN is
custom vas followed this Year and has
been Tire means OF raising a pretty
row
Jewell church people have risen in

support from the picnic another year
if the dance is not stopped. JeWeiFs

to advertise this picnic that twenty al
tomobiles ninety men and a brass band
recently toured the towns in Hamilton

The situation between the picnic pro-
moters and the church people has be
come 50 tense that 1t bids fair to hreak

at the height Of discussion. The Jewell
Record whose editor dances, has taken
the position that to preserve the picnic
and serve the best interests Of the
town the dance can very we'll be cut
out Says that paper:
There is a place in the situation for
the exercise of cool Judgment and cool

The people who do support the pic

the fate of Peter Thomas. son OF John
Thomas, Of Copper township. The dead
body Of the young man was found
Wednesday morning a few rods from
q bridge over a ravine near the home Of

extinct for several hours. There were
no marks upon the body. In the Fer
diz school house yard pony was
found which young Thomas had ridden
from a dance late the previous night
The animals head and neck were
covered with fresh dirt and mud and
the supposition is that 1t stumbled and
fell, throwing its rider. He was known
to have q weak heart and the fall may
have suddenly stopped Its pulsations,
as he apparently had not moved after
striking the ground.
