Professor Laughin Addresses Gradu-
ating Class at Des Moines.
Des Moines, June 17.-President
Taft was held up as a failure before
the graduating class of Drake univer-
sity by Professor James Lawrence
Laughlin of Chicago university, who
delivered the commencement address.
The address, the subject of which
was leadership" was scholarly
roast of the president and his admin
istration and the graduating class was
told to steer clear of men in whom
such great trust had been put but
who had failed in their stewardship.

Every day that passes without
rain serves to increase the anxiety
felt regarding the crops. Moisture
is badly needed in some sections of
the Red Rives Valley, and the late
sown barley and fax will not start
before being soaked with rain. The
same is true of the corn and a
general downpour would be heartily
welcomed. No damage has resulted
as yet, but the late sown grain will
all be at a complete standstill until
rain comes.

BRAVES WHIRLPOOL
CAPTAIN KLAUS LARSEN MAKES
SUCCESSFUL TRIP THROUGH
NlAGARA'S RAPIDS.
SHOOTS RAPIDS LIKE A FURY
Engine of Motor Craft Gets Out of
Order, Preventing Daring Man
from Completing Scheduled Trip
Is Slightly Hurt.

Niagara Falls, N. Y.-Capt. Klaus
70 made a successful trip through the
whirlpool rapids of Niagara.
Because the engine was put out of
order in the vicinity of the whirlpool
he did not go clear to Lewiston in the
boat which, after leaving the pool,
drifted into Dead Mans eddy near Nj
agara university, where it was swung
to shore. Larsen was picked up by
an electric car and taken to Lewis
ton, three miles further down stream,
where his injured arm was treated.
The boat was apparently undam-
aged.
Starting at five o'clock, it took Lar
sen five minutes to reach the railway
bridges and the next minute his boat,
the Ferro, had ridden the first wave
Then came q frightful tumult of strike
after strike. Never before had a mo-
tor boat been in such a sea, but it
was clear that Larsen was in control
as the boat responded nicely to the
helm. He shot through the rapids and
into the pool like a fury and was soon
being rushed across the great river
pocket, having failed to make the out
let as he expected. He swung to the
Canadian side and into the driftwood
But from this he hurried away under
power. He drove his boat away across
10 the New York side and swung out
of the outlet.
1t was about this time that the en-
CINE went wrong and he drifted into
an eddy near Niagara university be-
low the Devils hole. AS the Ferro
swung toward shore it seemed as
though It would be beaten on the
rocks, but people on shore prevented
this and helped Larsen land.
Speaking of his experience, he said:
81 tell you those waves in the rap
ids gave me some fierce hits.
thought they would beat my head off,
but at no time did 1 fail to realize
where l was and what was taking
place. I had passed the worst of it
when my boat failed to respond to her
power and I could easily have reached
Lewiston by drifting had l not been
caught in that eddy"

moned as Wit
neSSeS,

Chicago, Illinois.-Senator julius G.
Burrows, of Michigan, chairman of the
senate committee, which is to investi-
gate the election of William Lorimer,
arrived here with others of the COM
mittee and prepared to take up the
consideration of the charges that the
election of the junior senator from Illi-
nois was tainted with bribery
The initial session Tuesday was de-
voted to arranging the program for
the sittings of the committee. Among
other things which will be then deter
mined is what evidence will be asked
for by the committee. The general i'm
preston is that much testimony will
be declared admissible before the com
mittee which in criminal trial would
be held not competent. On this point
as on the probable duration of the COM
mittee sessions here the members of
the committee were noncommittal.
With the exception of one member of
the senatorial body Senator Morgan
G. Buckley. of Connecticut, chosen in
place of Senator William 3. Dilling-
ham, of Vermont, who is i'll. all the
members of the committee are law
yers.
The investigating committee, which
is a subcommittee of the senate com
mittee on privileges and elections, is
composed of the following senator's:
Members of Committee.
Chairman, julius c. Burrows, Michi-
gan; Weldon B. Hepburn, Idaho; Rob
ert j. Gamble, South Dakota; Morgan
G. Buckley, Connecticut; all Republic
ans; James B. Frazier, Tennessee;
Thomas H. Paynter, Kentucky, and
Joseph F. Johnston, Alabama, Demo
Gratis. Senator Lorimer will be repre-
scented at the hearing by former Judge
Elbridge Hanecy, of Chicago, his at
torney.
All the witnesses who were exam
ined at the two trials of minority lead
er Browne may be asked to repeat
their stories before Chairman Burrows
and his colleagues.
1t is expected that the great MAORI
ty, if not all, the members of the leg
islature who voted for Senator Lori
mer may be called to declare under
oath their reasons for SO voting. In
neither of us trials, in the first of
which the jury disagreed and in the
second which found verdict Of not
guilty of the charge of bribery, did
Lee O'Nell Browne take the witness
stand, and his appearance before the
senate committee if ne is summoned
to testify will be awaited with interest.

son, vice-president of the National
Bank of Lawrence County, has sued
Mrs. Katherine Tingley, head of the
Theosophist colony at Point Iona,
Cal, to recover 100000 from the es-
tate of his mother He also asks for
an accounting for 100000 more.
His mother, Mrs. Harriet P. Thurs
ton, was a member of the colony, and
charges of undue influence on the
part of Mrs. Tingley are the basis OF
the suit.
It is charged that in furtherance of
a conspiracy, Mrs. Tingley placed as
sistants in constant contact with Mrs.
Thurston, and that they impressed
upon the dying woman the doctrine
that the people of the world should
continue one uSiversal brotherhood;

BROWNE GETS NOMINATION
Legislator Freed From Bribery Charge
Wins in the Illinois Primary
Election.

Chicago.-Tn the Illinois primaries
Thursday Frederick H. Gansberger
defeated Congressman Henry Sher-
man Boutell for the Republican nomi-
nation for congress in the Ninth dis
trict
George E. Foss, another of the vet
Grams from Chicago, had a narrow call
in the Tenth district. Late returns
indicated that G.. p Englehardt was
leading by 100 votes, with nearly fifty
precincts to hear from.
With the exception of the Ninth and
Tenth districts, the Republican con
gressmen from Cook county were re-
nominated without break.
II the districts outside of Chicago
the chief items of Republican interest
were the nominations of George w.
Conn, Jr., of Woodstock in the Elev-
enth district, over Ira ]. Copley and
Thirteenth district
In the Eighteenth district, Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon won in a walk, his
opponent, Henry B. Downs, hardly
getting into the race. The other Re-
publican ineumbents throughout the
state were renominated with little
trouble.
The hardest fight for the Democrats
came in the Fourth district, where
State Senator Raincy and Congress
man McDermott ran a neck and neck
race. McDermott, however, won by a
comfortable plurality.
Incomplete returns indicate that the
men who voted for William Lorimer
for senator in the general assembly,
both Republican and Democratic,
gained sweeping victory.
Even the men who were drawn into
the Jackpot" Investigation have been
renominated by overwhelming MAORI
ties except in perhaps two instances.
Representative Lee O'Neil Browne
outdistanced all his competitors in La
Sale county.
State Senator John Broderick, un-
der indictment in Sangamon county,
won by vote of almost to 1.
Robert E. Wilson, in the Sixth dis
trict, also wins handily.
Speaker Shurtleff was renomipated
by plurality of more than 5000
votes.
Later returns indicate that the
Legislative Voters league was badly
beaten throughout nearly all the pre-
cincts in Chicago. 1t was in this field
that the league made it's hardest fight.

CALEB POWERS FOR CONGRESS
is NOMINATED BY REPUBLICANS
IN nth KENTUCKY DISTRICT.
Served Eight Years in Prison for Com
pIicity in Murder of Governor
Gobel.

Lexington, KY. = II the pri-
mary of the Republicans of the
Eleventh congressional district Caleb
Powers, who for eight years was a
states prisoner on the charge of com
plicity in the murder Of Gov. William
Gobel on the streets of Frankfort jan
uary 20, 1900, defeated Don c. Ed
wards, the present incumbent.
Since Powers was freed by pardon
from Governor Wilson, the noun
taineers have stood by him, believing
him to be political martyr and de-
spite all influences that could be
brought to bear on him by the fol-
lowers of Edwards they returned Pow
ers the Republican nominee by large
majority. Money was spent freely on
both sides, it is said
The indications are that when all re-
turns are received Powers will be
nominated by 5000. Much trouble
was had at the polls among the adj
herents of the two principals and at
Grape Vine, Squire Colwell shot and
killed John Holmes. Trouble arose
over the election and the killing re-
suited.
The fight for the. nomination has
been the most bitter in the history of
Kentucky and it was feared that the
followers of Powers and Edwards
would come to open conflict, but aside
from the trouble at Grape Vine, no
shooting occurred.

ENDS WAR ON INSURGENTS
President Taft Declares That Patron
age Door Will Hereafter Be Open
to All Sides.

Beverly, MasS.-No difference be.
tween so-called "Progressives" and
Regulars will be recognized by Pres
ident Taft hereafter, but all party lead.
ers will be treated alike as Republic.
ans in the matter of federal support.
The presidents views to this effect
are given in a letter from Secretary
Norton to Republican leader OF
Iowa, whose name is not disclosed.
In the letter Secretary Norton
stated that while important Republic.
an legislation pending in congress
was opposed by certain Republican
leaders, the president felt that his
duty required him to withhold federal
patronage from senators and repre-
sentatives who seemed to occupy a
position hostile to efforts to fulfill
the pledges of the party platform
That attitude on the part of the
president ended, however, with the
more recent primary elections and
nominating conventions to which the
people have declared themselves, and
the president now looks upon PRO
gressives" and Regulars" alike as
Republicans and as such entitled tc
his support and the support of the
party, and the fall elections, Secre'
tary Norton's letter says, must set
tie the question whether the differ
ences of the last session of congress
shall be perpetuated or forgotten.
Among those from whom, it is said
the president temporarily withheld
federal patronage were Senators La
Toilette, Bristow, Dolliver and Cum
minis and Representative Hubbard O.!

Trembling Girl Prisoner-Dentist

London.-On the resumption of the
trial of DR.. Hawley H. Crippen and
his typist, Ethel Leneve, charged
with the Staying of the formers wife,
Henry Wilcox, scientific analyst to the
home office, who discovered poison in
the body found in Crippen's residence,
went on the witness stand and swore
that death was caused by the deadly
drug.
The physician described the nature
of the medium used and said that
from a quarter to half a grain would
prove fatal. He had found two-sev-
enths of a grain after a lapse Of four
to eight months, and judged that more
than half grain had been admins
tered. He found no other cause of
death and expressed the opinion that
the victim survived the dose an hour
or more.
Before Doctor Wilcox was called the
crown introduced medical testimony
to corroborate that given on Wednes-
day by Prof Augustus J. Pepper,
pathologist of the University OF Lon
don, who swore that the body had
been disfigured by one familiar with
the science of anatomy.
The grewsome exhibits and the I'M
pleasant character of the testimony
at the last session did not deter the
curious from struggling to get into
the Bow street police court, and the
section apportioned to the public was
crowded.
