laration of Mrs. Julia Clark Hallam, the
noted lecturer in the cause when She
addressed the gathering of women al
the fair grounds. Led by the state
president Of their organization the
women have determined to take up the
militant methods and declare they will
have what they call their rights at any
price. Louis F. Post of Chicago, was
another prominent speaker Of the week
at the suffragists meetings.
Mrs. E. ]. Allery of Des Moines told
pitiful story to the police of the at
tempt of her son to murder her. The
son, John, was arrested, charged with
the attempted crime. He denied his
guilt and the mother and detectives as
serted it. Now the doctors come for-
ward with the startling statement that
Mrs. Allery has had a nightmare; has
dreamed of the attempted murder by
her son and that so vivid was the
dream that she believes 1t even In her
Weakening hours. Still the police refuse
to fully credit the physicians STATE
ments; John continues to deny ms
guilt and an investigation continues.
The hearing promises to be a tangled
affair.
John Junkin, the negro who was
hanged at TT. Madison July 90 for muir
der of clara Rosen, beautiful choir girl
of Ottumwa, possessed the brain Of an
animal in all the RIGHTEOUSNESS and lg-
norance that such might develop. This
was the statement of the Iowa board OF
health today following the report made
to it by DR.. Hoeve, of Des MONIES, VINO
had in charge Junkin's body. A care
full examination Of the brain revealed
the fact that the cells are far apart as
in the animal instead Of close together
as is the case of the human brain. Inc
development of the depth of the ceiis
was also different from that of the hu-
man organ; the latter being deeply IN
dented. while the brain of the negro
was found to hold scarcely any depres-
sion. It is one of the most Imperfect
brains ever examined in Iowa, accord
ing to the statement.
Professor Stayner, of the Anes Agri-
cultural College, secretary to Profes-
sor Holden, of the same institution,
stated today that the Iowa corn crop OF
this year will be larger than it was
one year ago. Mr.. Stayner is in charge
of the agricultural exhibit at the fair
grounds. He stated also today that the
department was arranging short
courses for the farmers thruout the
state this year and that thousands of
requests have already been made for
them.
There never has been a time since
have been connected with the Anes
college that the farmers have taken
such an interest in the courses which
we have planned"
Whether county attorneys can have
levied taxes on cigaret dealers prior to
when the anti-cigaret law was en-
forced and then not permit the taxes
to be returned when the dealers de-
clared no taxes should have been ex-
acted thru the reason that the selling
Of the pills was against the state law
must be decided in a suit brought to-
day by the C. C. Taft Company against
the county for s375. In its petition the
company declares that the levy, assess
ment and collection Of the tax was H.
legal Gin that such levy assessm ent
and collection is direct violation OF
the free and untrammeled Intercourse
and trade between various states and
cities thereof"
