BUY STONE
FOR CHURCH

The Trinity English Lutheran
church, the growth of which is noted
from time to time in this city and
valley, today consummated the pur-
chase of the handsome native brown
stone that is being taken from the
walls of the old Grand Valley Ma
tional bank building.
The church organization owns a
pair of very handsome lots on the
corner of Eighth and Grand avenue,
on which the church at an early date
hopes to erect handsome church
structure.
While the congregation as yet IL
small in this city, new accessions to
the membership, under the able pas
torship of Rev. Rohde are being made
from time to time.
The purchase of the stone today
from the Grand Valley bank people.
was consummated through the untir-
ing efforts of Rev. Rohde, who saw
in that stone being torn away from
the bank building a nucleus for the
material for structure for his
church. How soon the building will
be undertaken is not known exactly,
but the purchase of the stone is a
very significant move upon the part
of the English Lutheran congrega.

GAYNOR TALKS
 ABOUT SHOOTING

New York, September 19.-Mayor Gaynor, in letter to his sister, Miss Mary E. Gaynor of Utica N T., which is printed this afternoon in the Even ing Post, tells in an interesting man. ner of his impressions at the time he was shot on the steamer Kaiser Wilhel Crosse.
 The mayor says he has not read a line of what has been published of the shooting nor does he now remem- Der the name of the man who shot him.
 Going over the incidents of the shoot ing Mayor Gaynor wrote: T was stand ng on the deck talking with Com- missioners Thompson, Lederle, Ed wards, Corporation Counsel Watson, my secretary, Robert Adamson, and several friends who had come aboard to see me off MT. Montte, president of Chile, and Mrs Montte had just passed by and I had spoken a few words with them. MT. Adamson point ed out that the ship was dressed with flags for me, but I said I didn't think 1t could be for me. My next conscious ness was of terrible metallic roar in my head; it filled my head, which seemed as though 1t would burst open. It swelled to the highest pitch and 1t then fell and then rose again and so alternated until 1t subsided into con- tinuous buzz. It was sickening, but my stomach did not give way. I was meanwhile entirely sightless
 T don't think fell, for when I be- came conscious I was on my feet l suppose they saved me from falling and they were supporting me. My sight gradually returned so that after while I could see the deck and the outlines of the crowd around me. l became conscious that I was choking. Blood was coming from my mouth and I tried all I could to swallow 1t so those around me would not see 1t. But l found I could not swallow and then knew my throat was hurt. It seemed as though 1t were dislocated l strug- gled to breathe through my mouth, but could not and thought I was dying of strangulation. I kept thinking all the time the best thing to do."

The indictment charges that the governor authorized the publication of a statement in the Des Moines Capital, rehecting seriously on the character of Mir. Cownie. Among other charges the statement declared that MT. Cownie had been unduly familiar with girls at the Mitchellville Reform school.
 The defense of Governor Carroll will be, it Is understood, that he was privileged in publishing the communication contain ing the alleged libel. It is also under stood the governor will make no use of technicalities to prevent the introduce ton of evidence, but will throw the case wide open. t-N
 The governors attorneys claim that the first letter written by MT. Cownie re- ferred to information which the gov ernor had relative to Cownie's conduct as an official, and this gave the governor a chance to reply. His reply contained the alleged libel
