Miss Edna Leek will not accept
her sentence of five months in the
county jail without fight. Such
was the conclusion reached Friday. and
on the following day her father, S. T.
Leek, put up the bail bond of $4,000
required in her case, and the case will
be taken to the supreme court 1t APP
peared to be the intention of Miss Leek
up to Thursday evening to take the
punishment meted out to her by the
jury and Judge Powers, and arrange
ments were made with, Sheriff Wilson
for her to begin the serving of her
sentence on Saturday morning Her
father went down and looked over the
Jail and Sheriff Wilson offered to allow
them to fix up one of the front rooms
Of the Jail with good furniture and
other comforts which would make
life there as agreeable as possible,
and it was supposed that the whole
matter was SO arranged;. but on Fri
day the plan was changed as above
noted. There has, been a report
current that the change was made
because the pail was not in good
condition. but Sheriff Wilson says
that if this was the case he has no
knowledge of it.
Waterloo.
There is a disposition on the part
of those interested in the case against
Paul D. Phelps the young man un-
der charge of robbing the ticket Of
flee of the Great Western depot of
some 5000, to impose as light sem
tence as possible. In the preliminary
hearing before Justice kuhns Mon
day no action was taken, and the de-
sire was expressed by the prosecut-
ing attorney and the attorney for the
railroad company to let Phelps off as
light as circumstances would permit.
This attitude on the part of those
interested is the outcome Of the way
in which the young man has acted
since his apprehension. He candidly
confessed to the robbery and told OF
the circumstances that led up to it
Since the age of ten he has been
practically an orphan, his father hav:-
ing died when he was that age, and
his mother married again shortly af-
terward. He has been dependent up
on himself for the past six or seven
years, and is only II now. The young
mans fate depends on the attitude of
the bonding company. If they prove
lenient, he will escape severe punish
ment. In the meantime every effort will
be made to adjust matters so as to
tighten the sentence.

MecRARY ORDERED TO PAY.
Calhoun County Finances Apparently
Somewhat Mixed.

Special to Times-Republican.
Lake City, April 1S.-Financial af-
fairs in this county seem to be in
somewhat of muddle. The board of
supervisors has directed the county at
torney, F. F. Hunter, to collect from
the former treasurer, Il. w. -McCrary
the $40 that is still missing from the
fund in drainage district No. IS. The
taxpayers in this district declare that
they paid this sum once, and We're not
given credit for it, and they say that
they will never pay it again, SO that
it is up to McCrary to show where the
money was applied, or else make it
good.
The taxpayers in other drainage dis
tricts are also having some concern as
to what use has been made of their
money. Interested parties in district
No. IL in Center township have en-
ployed committee to look over the
financial conditions of that drain and
this committee found that 5000 of their
money has been used for other pur-
poses and not credited to them.
1t seems that the financial depart
ments have been somewhat disorgan-
lied ever since C. q. Harding re-
signed some two years ago as deputy
treasurer of Calhoun county.
