WILL NOT be TRIED UNTIL THE
AUGUST TERM OF THE DIS
TRIcT COURT.

Although an effort was made to have
the trial Of Charles Young, accused
OF murder In the first degree, during
the present term of the district court
Judge Vermilion found the work set
for the last week of the March ses.
sion would not permit the hearing, and
therefore Young must wait until Aug.
ust, when Judge D. M Anderson Will
preside. He was taken yesterday aft
ernoon to Anamosa by Sheriff William
e. Knox after it was found that trial
this term could not be gained.
Young has already a five year SEN
tence in Anamosa for assault with IN.
tent to rob Walter McDaniels several
months ago. He may now begin to
serve that time With this trial for this
first murder will come, perhaps, the
trial Of the second. that Of killing
Brakeman Wine near st. Louis last
September. This charge was placed
against him wednesday evening at the
Mahaska county Jail by Burlington
Agent, ]. M. Harrison, who is now
gathering evidence.
All day yesterday, up until the time
of Young's removal to Anamosa, the
jail door was crowded continually by
persons eager to get a glimpse of the
prisoner. Young seemed to like being
the center Of attraction, as he sat fac
ing the door with smile on his race,
and not shifting his gaze. He was pho
tographed yesterday afternoon as are
all criminals and bad men, but he
turned his head and closed his eyes,
not willing to let the camera get his
features and expression.

he formed against that statesman ano
started another march on Mexico CITY
| After fighting number OF battles, he
found it judicious to reside outside 81
Mexico, which he left by way OF
Matamoras and Brownsville, Texas
In the meantime his old teacher
Juarez, died and degree OF amnesty
4 was issued, under which Diaz again
i returned to his country. In 1875 ne
I organized another revolution and was
again compelled to take refuge IN ne"
Orleans. where he remained until ne
received call from his old state CT
Oaxaca, the center Of another reVolu-
ton, to return.
on the voyage to Vera Cruz. think
ing that lie had been discovered. ne
would have drowned. but was p1ckeo
up by a boat and taken back to the
steamer. At Vera Cruz, while his en-
emies were looking for him, he took
the position OF a coal HEAVIER and es.
capped the vigilance Of the officers and
got back again and into the middle OF
the revolution at Oaxaca-
He defeated the government forces
in 1875 and again entered the capital
Of the republic, while the president.
who opposed him. took flight to the
United States. He declared himself
president, In which capacity he fought
q number of other Srevolutionists ana
defeated them. For a short time ne
was one OF the four presidents which
Mexico had at one time.
After such a long. stormy and tenn
pestuous time, Diaz was regularly
elected president May 5. 1877, and his
government was officially recognized
by the United States In 1878. After
serving one term he was succeeded by
President Gonzolez, as the constitution
at that time provided that no person
should succeed himself as president.
In the meantime he came to the
United States, as far north as Boston,
Mass. receiving great attention from
our people.
He was reelected president in 1884,
The constitution was changed so he
could succeed himself and he has been
elected every four years
since that time.
Under his administration railroad
building and other enterprises have
been fostered and he has been success
full in subduing all revolutions. and
for the first time in many years there
had been considerable period OF con
tinued peace in Mexico.
!. There has been more progress and
development in Mexico under his adj
than in any equal period
Of time in the entire existence Of the
republic. He is man of great execu-
i've ability. with wonderful degree
If force. coupled with much tact and
clever policy. He has maintained the
separation of church and state inaugu-
'ated by Juarez. and has been wonder
'ully successful in guiding the ship
# state smoothly through a tortuous
oath, beset with distractions and oh
'tacles, and is entitled to be counted
me Of the greatest men OF modern
lines.

/ RAINS WILL
ARRIVE EARLIER
CHANGE IN BURLINGTON TIME
CARD AFFECTS NOS. 9 AND 10,
STARTING MAY 20.

The new time card, made necessar,
because of the making Of Burlington
trains Nos. 8 and 10 through Denver
passengers instead OF Oxford, Neb.
being their terminal, will cause these
two trains to arrive in Ottumwa q few
minutes earlier after May %, wher
the change is effective. Chief Dis
patcher G.. w. Messenger states that
No. will arrive under the new sched
ule at 4:25 and depart at 4:28 o. m.
which is eight minutes earlier than
at present as this train arrives now at
ABB. No. 10 will arrive three minutes
earlier, at 6:52 a. M, instead Of 6:55
as at present. This will make this
train reach Chicago at 2 p. m.
The cause Of making these through

business due to start In short time
when all trains will be loaded to their

trains between Chicago and Denver,

one-half hours. The trains are Nos.
