Hon. l.. G. Weller Ill.

Mason City, Iowa, Dec. 9.-Hon.
l.. G.. Weller is seriously i'll at his
Greenwood home. Thirty years ago
Mr.. Weller was one of the prominent
politicians of this, the then Fourth
congressional district, when it took
in some of the counties south of here.
In 1882 he was nominated for con-
gress on what was then known as
the National ticket. He made what
would now be determined a gumshoe
campaign and to the surprise and
CONSERVATION of number of the pol
iticians of the district, he was elect
ed. He served in the forty-eighth
congress of the United States, from
1883-S5. His condition is now con-
sidered very critical. He is nearly
eighty years of age.

Boy Meets With Serious Accident.

Dyersville, Ia, Dec. 9. -Relatives
here have received word of the SER
ious accident which befell Jno. Lud-
wig, the nine-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Cornelius Ludwig at Remsen.
The boy is confined to St. Joseph's
hospital at Sioux City and is in a
precarious condition. The boy was
driving a team which was being used
to operate a corn elevator. Late in
the afternoon, as the job of unload
ing was about completed, one of the
men discovered the boy lying uncon-
scious on the ground, his skull crush
ed. AS no one saw the accident it is
not known how it happened. He was
placed under the care of surgeon
and rushed to Sioux City to the hos
pital, where an operation was per-
formed successfully and the boy re-
gained consciousness. He is recov-
ering.

TEACHER WAS DISCHARGED.
Forging a Certificate is Found to be
Evidence of Insanity.

One of the most startling cases
with which the State Board of Edu-
cation has had to deal in years, was
when convicting evidence was bro t
to the attention of that body that the
certificate under which j. Franklin
Hill has been working in the Abba
public schools was a forged instru-
ment. The board had been investi-
eating Hills case for month or
more and at the time of the State
Teachers convention in Des Meines
Hill was hailed before them and ac-
cused of the forgery of this certificate
and several other misrepresenta-
tions.
1t seems that Hill has a brother at
Elkader, Iowa, James j. Hill, who is
a teacher and has state certificate.
When the certificate for Abba came
to the county superintendent Office,
it appeared that there had been an
erasure of the James j." and the
name of u. Franklin had been sub
stituted. The change was noted by
the county superintendent, and upon
investigation by the State Board OF
Education it was found that the for
gerry had been committed. When
questioned by the members of the
board last Saturday in Des Moines,
Hill evaded the issues, but later gave
a complete confession. He was taken
before commission of insanity and
after examination the insanity COM
mission declared that Hill was in
competent mentally. After the con-
fession he was given the opportunity
to resign, which he accepted.
1t is a case of startling disclosures
and many of the actions of the man
have not been brought to light.-Al-
bia Republican.

A Woman's Sacrifice.


Three years ago startling tale came
to light concerning a prominent busi-
ness man In Austria. He found him
self on the brink Of ruin, and bis wife
came to his rescue at the cost Of her
own life. Leaving an overheated room
one night. she walked up and down a
stone tagged passage. barefoot and
with nothing on but nightdress, till
she caught chill which she aggravat-
ed by series Of reckless acts. In
flammation of the lungs set in, and she
died shortly afterward. Her husband
obtained the large sum of money for
which her life was insured. and with
this he was able to pull through the
crisis successfully. He married for a
second time within three months of his
first wife's death. This husband did
not get of scot free. however. A serv-
ant in his employ had overheard the
conversation in which the heroic
young wife had told her husband her
intention to die for his sake. The serv'
ant informed the police. Then the In
surance companies contended it was
case of suicide and sued successfully
for the return of the money. The hus'
band was prosecuted for being an ac'
cessory to his wife's death and re-
ceived the punishment he we'll merited.

A Great Doc Town.


The greatest dog town In Great
Britain, If not In the world, Is Haver-
fordwest. There are a great many
men in the town who live wholly and
make a good living by breeding, buy
ing and selling dogs. Although the
population is only 5000, at least 6,OO0
dog licenses are issued annually, and
there are also large number OF ex-
emptions. Almost daily there are
more dogs than people in the public
streets, though valuable animals are
never allowed to run loose. Haver-
fordwest dog breeders are known for
their working terriers, show terriers
pointers, settlers and spaniels, which
are daily traded for big sums through
the fanciers' journals and go every
where. 1t is the home Of the Sealy-
ham breed of terriers, the origin OF
which has puzzled the keenest sports
men. One fancier's kennel recently
sold by auction realized 600, but f25O
is not an unusual price for a single
dog, while EGO. f7O and ESQ are almost
common. The quaint old town, with
It's mixed Welsh. English and Flem-
ish population, is almost the hub OF
the dogs universe.-Fur News.
