NEW CHURCH AT RoLFE.
Methodists Will Build Fine Edifies to
Cost About $4,000.

Special to Times Republican.
Rolfe, Feb. 4.--The Methodists Of
Rolfe have decided to launch their
long contemplated building of new
edifice for worship. The initial am
nouncement was not made until the
matter had been discussed pro and con
to finish, and they began IL thor
ough canvass of the membership. with
about one-half of the total sum pledged
or in hand. The new building Is to oc-
cupy the site of the frame structure
now in use, and is 10 be built of brick
and stone. with the best of modern im
provements and appliances. The present
estimate of cost of the building is
$4,000, which ordinarily means that
completion of the church will involve
an expenditure OF three or four thous-
and more. The addition of the new NJ.
T.. building will add much to the APP
pearancc of that section of the town.
and will pleasiusly balance the looks
Of Elm street, the fine brick structure
of the Presbyterians being just two
blocks east. Too much credit can not
be given Rev. Mark Masters for the
able manner in which he has engi
nered the enterprise, and the Metho-
distS of Rolfe are only doing their duty
when they give him the best of sup
port.

INSANE CASES IN STORY.
First Appeals Taken in Twelve Years
Commissions Finding.

FIRST Appeals AIKEN in Twelve Years
Commissions Finding.
Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, Feb. 4.-During the twelve
years that Clerk of Courts Soper has
been connected with the clerks office
and by virtue of that office has been
a member of the county insanity COM
mission, there has never been an appeal
taken from the finding of that body
until the past two weeks. and during
that time there have been three appeals
taken. All were heard before Judge
Lee Wednesday.
The first case was that OF Lewis Gin
ter, an old man of this city who was
up before the board. Altho the COM
missioners realized that he was prob
ably not dangerous and needed care
rather than treatment, they had no
power to send him to the county farm
and ordered him sent to the state hos
pital. He took an appeal and the court
ordered him confined in the county
home.
Martin Smith, a Story City man, was
brought before the commissioners after
violet fit Of temporary insanity. They
sent him out to the Iowa sanatorium
for temporary trea tment and when the
man appeared before the court he
showed no evidence of insanity and
was released
A. B. Heitstand, of Ames, was ad-
judged insane, took an appeal and the
finding of the court was in accord with
that of the commission. Mr.. Heitstand
will be taken to the hospital at
Clarinda for treatment.

Sioux City, Feb. 4.--The recent pur-
chase, by Fred W. Klass, of Sioux
City, of the Royce opera house at Shell
don, Iowa, will mark the passage into
oblivion OF one of the most unique
buildings in Iowa. Mr.. Klass bought
the opera house last week and will
probably wreck it and bring the larger
, portion of the material to Sioux City
for sale.
The opera house was built a number
of years ago, by John Royce, wealthy
and eccentric old citizen of Sheldon, as
sort of monument to himself, and
combines so many different forms of
architecture and workmanship that it
is unique. He was a man who seldom
finished anything that he commenced
and was of such variable tempera-
ment that he was not able to keep one
set of Workmen more than a month or
two at a time. The result of this is
shown in the fact that the opera house
contains all kinds of workmanship.
Some Of 1t is artistic, and some of it
the work of mere "botchers" in the art
of carpentry ard building Sumptuous
dressing rooms stand side by side with
rooms which appear to have been con-
structed with an ak and are hewn
in the rudest possible manner.

Hints of the old mans eccentricities
are found in the wine and private
rooms which form the top floor of the
building.

lumber and there is not a knot in the
whole of it. There are over 100000

cially valuable to the wrecker.

wrecking and the exact value of ting
material it contains.

Council Bluffs, Feb 4-Owing to the
absence of several witnesses from Ne
braska who failed to appear, the pros
ecution in the Frank Scott Mabray
trial rested sooner than was antici-
pated and caught the defense unpre-
pared. Several Nebraska men who had

pected to testify to Scott having
boasted and told of the Hermelbrecht
swindle, and who could not be COM

said that one man reached as far ,as

was witness for the defense. She tes-
titled that a man named Richmond
came to Pender, Neb., and talked to
her husband about some matter in
Council Bluffs and wanted to secure
person of means to go into the trans
action. She did not understand at the
time from Richmond's statement the
nature of the deal. The witness also
testified regarding the feeling of her
father, NJ. S. Campbell, toward her
husband. Objections to this part of her
testimony We're made by the state but
the most of it was admitted by the
court. Mrs. Scott said that at the time
she mortgaged her farm to secure
bond for her husband, her father pro-
tested against her doing so, and threat
ened to send Scott to the penitentiary
if Mrs. Scott executed the mortgage.
Says Father is Childish.
Mrs. Scott testified that her father
was 81 years old and childish: that his
eyesight was poor and that he had
been unable to read for several years
until she bought a large magnifying
glass for him about four months ago.
This part of the WOman's testimony
was in rebuttal Of a statement made
by Campbell in his testimony wherein
he stated that Scott had shown him a
letter outlining a plan for swindling
by means of fake races or other con-
tests.
j. II. Stokes of Pender, was another
witness for the defense. He testified to
efforts made to secure bond for Scott
and said that Campbell, in discussing
the matter, declared that he did not
know whether Scott was guilty of the
present charge or not but that he ought
to be in the penitentiary anyway. He
said that Campbell was unwilling that
any effort be made to secure bail for
Scott and wanted to see him remain
