cal taxpayer. the state and courts get

ing these amounts. the states uses of

Titonka, Jan. 19.-One Of the most
dsplorable events that has ever &C.
CURED in Iowa was when William
Winter, leaving home and mother. went
into the world deliberately choosing the
life Of a desperado, and the quick retri-
button that followed. 1t was only two
years ago. when Winter, who resided
with his parents on a farm Just out
OF Titonka, after "a series OF petty
tt,ievery and burglaries committed
near home, went to Union, Iowa. and
while robbing the till at restaurant
shot the owner, Trimble, down in cold
blood.
Two weeks later a posse Of men ran
him down as he was attempting to
! make his escape from his Titonka
home He made q confession, was
tried, his plea Of insanity was not
heard, and he was sentenced to life Inn
prfsonment in the penitentiary. The
prison doors had hardly closed behind
him when his mother. broken hearted,
with mind racked and wrecked with
grief. ended her life suicide. Now
tho migrate son; the murderer of his
brother man and the worse than MUIR
derer Of the one who gave him birth,
thinks Of home and mother, and in his
prison cell pens the following:
|. To My Mother.
Alone sit in meditation
| In my small and cherries cell,
.Thinking Of the old plantation
i And the home loved so we'll.
Thinking of you, mother dear,
| And the day fate bid US part.
] Oh! can not check the tear.
'Tis enough to break my heart.
Again seem to hear. you pleading.
| AS you bid your boy farewell
With heart that's Misunderstanding
For the boy you loved so well:
Who was being taken from you.
For crime that liquor'd done.
Bidding me to God be true,
"Oh, my poor. misguided son."
And when I'd passed three months
Within my gloomy cell,
! A message came to me one day.
And this sad tale 1t had to tell:
Mother dead" the message read.
And oh, the anguish that felt,
As by my prison bed I knelt.
Can not by mortal men be said.
| All! how sNept the long night thru
Within my dark and gloomy cell.
YearninG, mother dear. for you
Oh. could you but the angels tell
To take me from my lonely cell
With thee in paradise to dwell.
That thou might'st as in days of yore,
Soothe my yearning heart once more.
All! tho thick walls deny the key,
Ny spirit will some day be free.
And when 1t takes the Turing clue,
And mounts and wings away to you
] Tho far the Journey below far!
MY spirit shall outshine the star.
And when I'VE meet, oh dream sublime
+ What then is place, or space. or time?

tails of the separation were left for the
consideration of the cabinet. The an
nouncement by Foreign Minister Machade
last January that the decree would be
promulgated within a month led to the
issuance OF pastoral letter, signed by the
patriarch of Lisbon. to the archbishops
and bishops of Portugal. This letter.
while it acclaimed the government for
certain measures. criticised it harshlE be-
cause of the dissolution proposal The
government ordered the provincial gov

Is Being Handled.

NEW YORK. April 3O.-Secretary of
War Dickinson is we'll satisfied with the
way in which the Mexican situation is be-
ing handled Speaking before the 7tli
Regiment of the New York National
Guard here last night, he said:
I'VE have heard all kinds of rumors
recently We have heard it suggested
that the United States will intervene in
Mexico. But fortunately we have q
man as President who refuses to be car
ried away by popular hysteria. He will
maintain the honor and dignity of the
country and at the same time the Amer
lean people can count upon his good
sense and sound judgment.
'As to our military arm, the citizen SOL
der is and must be our chief reliance in
any great crisis. Our people will never
reconcile themselves to a large standing
army such as the great countries Of Eu-
rope have. If a crisis should ever arise
between this country and any frst-class
world power they would not fight us
with unframed troops. Our nation has
taken on the duties and obligations Of a
first-class world power and it must be
prepared to discharge them. This best
can be done with a small, we'll trained
army. as we have recently demonstrated
in Texas"
