CARE FOR THE AFFLICTED.

Great progress is being made in the
matter Of providing for the afflicted
and the poor who become a public
charge. From the Dodgeville Chronicle
of last week we take the following:
Thanksgiving day was observed at
the Iowa County Asylum in an appro
pirate manner, as is the usual custom.
The inmates all marched to the tables,
and before being seated, Supt. Perkins
repeated the Lords Prayer, which was
in turn repeated by the inmates. The
menu was as follows: Roast duck,
mashed potatoes, dressing, boiled cab
bage, fried parsnips, cranberry sauce,
beet pickles, mince pie, bread and but
ter, tea. The patients all enjoyed
themselves"
That Iowa county in the matter Of
caring for her dependents is second to
no county in Wisconsin, is abundantly
attested by all those who have given
thought to the matter. At no private
sanitarium is there better care taken Of
the afflicted than there is at the Iowa
County Home, which in keeping with
the spirit Of the age has been so named.
And it is well that the attention Of the
people Of the county is being directed
to that institution. A right move was
made at the June session Of the Board
of Supervisors in doing away with the
annual visit Of all Of the members Of
the Board to the Home and Asylum.
In compliance with resolution intro
duced by Supervisor j. W. Horn, and
unanimously adopted by the Board,
Chairman John b. Eagan each month
appoints two members Of the Board
to visit the Home and Asylum and
report to the BOad in regard to CON
ditions existing there. During July,
August, September, and October, eight
different members of the County Board
visited the institution, and their several
reports will appear in the published
proceeding Of the annual meeting.

His Act Was Evidently Premedtated

Easiest Way to End Life
Grieved for Dead Wife.

Passaic, N. j., Dec. 7.-Charles
Jerome Coleman, a one time million
aire, and we'll known musical director
and composer, committed suicide in
his room in a fashionable boarding
house. His body was found after the
odor of escaping gas from his room
had been detected. In his pocket was
one of his cards, on the back of which
was written: Suicide"
The body was discovered by DR..
Howard L. Maps. who lives next door
and who was sent for when Mr. Cole
man failed to res pond to repeated raps
on his door Dr. Maps found Cole
man lying on the bed with a gas jet
open near him. He had been dead two
or three hours.
Mr.. Coleman left no explanation for
his act. but he is said to have lost a
fortune of 100000 within the last
few years and to have been in reduced
circumstances. His wife died two
years ago and friends say that he
never entirely recovered from his
grief That his act was premeditated
is evident from the fact that he re-
Gently asked DR.. Maps the easiest way
to end ones life. The doctor made
an evasive answer, not because he sus-
pected that Mr.. Coleman was thinking
of suicide, he said. but because he con-
Eidered it bad policy to tell anybody
the easiest road to death.
Although a poor boy. Mr.. Coleman
won fame and fortune through his
musical ability He was educated at
Harvard and for many years was the
university organist.
For number of years he was leader
of a symphony society in Boston and
later went to New York, opening
vocal studio in east Eighteenth street.
Several musical productions Melted
him big money, but he was deprived
OF some of his royalties and also lost
heavily in speculation. He had lived
in Passaic four years and was the or
ganizer and first director of the Pas
sale Glee club. He leaves two sons,
George. of Philadelphia, and Charles
Jerome, Jr. of Cincinnati.

Petition Causes Surprise to
Government Officials.
KENYON DUE IN CHICAGO TODAY
Packers Ask Prosecution of Criminal
Charges Be Postponed Until Case
in Equity Before Grosscup
Is Disposed Of.

Chicago, Dec. 7.-Counsel represent
ing J. Ogden Armour and other in
dicted packers have filed a petition in
the United States district court ask
ing that further prosecution of the
criminal charges against the members
of the so-called beef trust be post
poned until the suit in equity pending
before Judge Peter S. GroSScup in the
United States circuit court be disposed
Of This suit was filed last February
and seeks to dissolve the National
Packing company. The petition came
as a surprise to the government Of
ficials, who had been expecting that
demurrer would be filed.
John S. Miller, of counsel for the
packers, gave notice to District Attor-
ney Sims and James H. Wilkerson,
that arguments on the petition would
be called before Judge George A. Car
penter in the United States court to-
day Judge Carpenter is absent from
the city, and was reported as having
been in Washington Tuesday. 1t is
thought unlikely that he will return to
Chicago before next week.
AS soon as copies of the petition
were placed in the hands of the dis
trict attorney and his aid, he called
a conference with Mr. Wikerson and
Elwood Goodman. w. S. Kenyon, as
sistant attorney general of the United
States, was expected to arrive here
today.
A decree of injunction granted in
the suit of 1902, it is stated, is still in
effect. The suit in equity filed last
February, it is set forth, is directed
against certain of the same perosns
who were made defendants to the in
junction proceedings in 1902. The
only new defendants, it is said, are
Charles H. Swift, Frank A. Fowler,
Edward Tilden and Louis II. Heyman.

Revolutionists in Control Of Situation

City of Mexico, Dec. 7.-Official gov
eminent papers confirm the rumor
that Guerrero is in the hands of the
rebels who captured it, and are hold
ing seventy-f1ve prisoners, including
the mayor, who were defending the
town.
Gen. Hernandez arrived from the
north and says the rebels control the
situation around Chihuahua. The gov
eminent lost more than 600 troops and
seems unable to cope with the rebel
lion. The police say they have dis
covered a plot in Vera Cruz to blow
up the bridges on the Mexican rail-

LINE MAKES SHOWING
Greatest Coal Contract Ever
Made Just Closed With
Davis Company.

The largest single coal contract, with
one exception, ever made by mine OWL
ers with a steel mill, has been closed
by the Bethlehem Steel company with
the Davis Coal & Coke company. 1t is
to run for twenty years, the minimum
daily supply to be 1000 tons, and the
maximum 5000. The steel company
has the discretion of saying what its
requirements are above 1000 tons day.
The coal company officials estimate an
average tonnage of about 5000 q day.
Of this contract cannot be estimated
in advance. The cost of the coal at
Che mines viii probably be between
$30,O0o,O00 and -$35,O00,00o for the
period covered, while the freight to
Bethlehem, where it is to be laid
down, will be perhaps $25, 100000 or
more. This will make the contract
worth to the miners and to the rail
road company between $60,000,000 and
$4,000, 900.
The Western Maryland is to handle
the Reading at Shippensburg for de-
livery at Bethlehem. The contract
calls for the coal at the mines in the
West Virginia fields and not at Bethle-
hem, in order not to conflict with tho
commodity clause Of the Hepburn bill,
which precludes the railroads from
making the contract direct, with. the
view OF getting the freight haul.
Considerable local interest will be
shown in this announcement as the
Western Maryland is ono of the Gould
roads and has often been figured In a
through connection. The Davis Coal &
Coke comuany is controlled by the well.
known Davis and Elkins families Of
West Virginia three of it's members
