The government is evidently insisting

BANK CASHIER SHOT
r. L. Huston, Of Winterset, Mysterious.
Iy Killed in His Home-May Have
Committed Suicide or Been Victim
of Chicken Thieves.

Winterset, Aug 29.-Mystery sur
rounds the death Of r. L. Huston at
his home yesterday during the rain
storm when he was killed by two bull
let wounds. His friends hope that 1t
will be disclosed that his death was
due to accident, but there has been
general belief today that it was sui
eide.
He had been cashier Of the Madison
County Savings bank eighteen months,
and his accounts with the bank and its
customers are in perfect condition. His
home life was ideal and happy. He was
popular and we'll known, and his stand
ing in the community was very high.
He had always lived here and came
from an excellent family. He was in
good health, apparently. There is no
cause discernible for suicide.
Nevertheless, his body was found by
his little son in the back yard of the
home after he had gone out into the
storm after putting a rain coat over his
night clothing, taking his revolver with
him. Death was caused by two bullet
wounds in the head, one in the ear and
the other in the forehead, both bullets
having come out at the back of the
head. It is supposed that the one at
the ear would not have caused death.
or did not cause 1t INN ediately, so that
the second was fred. Both reports were
heard in the house.
Mr.. Huston was about 40 years Of
age He leaves wife and two chill
dren, son Of - and daughter OF 3.
He had always been prominent in az
fairs here, serving as county clerk
several terms and had as wide an ac-
quaintance and as great popularity as
any man in Madison county.
The coroner's inquest. which was to
have been held last night, was post
poned until next week in order that
more time might be had to investigate
the case. There has been no clue to
the mystery which has been one Of the
most sensational cases in years here.
Taylor Huston, father Of the de-
ceased, who lives near Des Moines, ar
rived here last night. He declared that
if his son had committed suicide that
there would have been some letter or
clue to indicate it. Members Of the
family believe that he was killed by
chicken theft whom he had caught in
the chicken house, altho there is no
evidence to support this theory. Mr..
Houston owned several hundred very
! fine fowls and was often in the habit
| Of getting up at all times Of the night
in case he heard a disturbance near the

That is why William Kelly. plumber

had on his person four dollars and four
half dollars. all manufactured out OF
some combination Of hard metals. The
impressions on the coins were nearly
perfect, but their appearance would
not deceive any one in his senses
The federal authorities were noti-
fed Of the capture Of the Vinton man

Fort Dodge, Aug. 29.-Webster coun-
ty now has $500 Of automobile tax

County Auditor James l.. Haurahan
said that contrary to the general opin-

portion the good roads fund among the
