SKETCH OF CALEB POWERS.

The next congress will have it's share
of interesting characters, thanks to the
radical changes in the last elections.
Victor Berger as socialist will not at.
tract more attention than will Caleb
Powers, republican, of the eleventh
Kentucky district, whom members Of
the party hail as martyr to political
passion, but whom the democrats back
in the Blue Grass state still excoriate
as a red-eyed accessory before the fact
in the assassination of William Goebel.
Saturated with the spice of human in
terest is this young man. His father, q
kinsman of that Abigail Powers who
married Willard Fillmore, was a Ken
lucky mountaineer, who believed that
boys should attend school early and
often. So Caleb's shining morning face
was turned schoolward when he was
five, and the little log cabin where he
got the first glimpse of the three RS
was two miles away. When only fifteen
he entered college and taught between
terms to pay his expenses. Then he
was appointed to West Point, but had
to leave in his second year because of
failing eyesight, which necessitated
years Of rest and treatment. But by
the time he was "a he had graduated
from law school and been elected
county superintendent of schools.
Three years later he married. but
within six months, his bride, who he
has always said was too perfect to
last, died of spinal meningitis. After
her death he took post graduate
course in law, began practice in 1891,
and a year later was the republican
candidate for secretary of state In the
bitter campaign which eliminated in
Goebel's assassination and his own ar
rest as accessory to the crime. After
languishing in Jail eight years, during
which he was four times tried, twice
sentenced for life and once condemned
to death, Powers was finally pardoned
by Governor Wilson, after which he
went on the lecture platform.
But even now when his neighbors
have sought to vindicate him by send
ing him to congress, his troubles do not
appear to be over, for it frequently has
been reported that his political oppon.
ents will ask the house to deny to seat
him on the ground that his pardon has
not the effect of an acquittal in re-
deeming him from the status of
felon.

Council Bluffs. JAM 9.-Regardless
of whether Council Bluffs retains the
horticultural congress next year, the
Missouri Valley Corn Growers associa-
ton expects to hold a banner corn
show in the auditorium, and in all
probability dairy show will be adj

Professor Bruce Crossley, manager OF
the last corn exposition.
Mr.. Crossley believes that the sue
cess Of last years corn show demon
strated the interest in such exhibits
taken in this city, and that 1t should
be made an annual affair.
The dairy show Is a new departure,
but should prove even more success
full than the corn show. as it will be CT

FRUIT IN GOOD SHAPE.
Local Dealers Deny the Report That
Frigid Weather Has Affected
r Stock

The fruit in the local wholesale
houses is in the best of shape, and the
frigid weather thus far has not af-
fected any of it. This statement was
made most positive this morning when
the wholesalers of the luscious pro-
ducts of the southern and western
climes were interviewed.
'The impression made by your story
last night about bananas suffering from
the cold" said Pearl Veitch of the E..
H. Emery fruit house. "has kept me
busy this morning explaining how the
fruit comes in to our house. There Is
little or no way that bananas can suf-
fer from the cold. for the railroads
see to it that the fruit is preserved en-
route to the northern points, and as
for the other fruits, the same precau.
lions are etaken. Our fruit is really in
better shape now than it Is at some of
the hottest periods in the summer"
