ASSAULT AT WAUKON.
Strange Man Attacks Fourteen
Year Old Girl in Outskirts OF
Town at Dark.

Tuesday evening of last week,
just at dark, Miss Enid Russell, ag-

sell, was attacked by a strange man
in a corn lot near her home in the
south part of town. She was in the
lot picking up some corn when the
man approached her and accused
her of stealing the corn. He then
made a proposal to her, offering to
give her a dollar. She repulsed
him and he caught her, throwing her
to the ground, but she fought the
lecherous brute off and escaped
without injury save few scratches
and nervous shock.
She describes the man as being
about thirty years old and small

SchooIboys i'm Transit.

When grandpa started out to school
Each morning, long ago,
He tramped along the country road
With younger folk in tow;
A-whistling in his simple glee,
He walked a mile or two or three.
Now daddy, not SO long ago,
When he was a little tike,
With auntie on the handlebars
Rhode schoolward on bike:
A-spinning down the village street,
As gay a sight as you could meet.
When l am starting out to school,
Although it isn't far,
I'm bundled carefully and sent
In a whiZZing motor-car;
The grandson of my grandpa, l
Think of my gra1dpa's days and sigh.

The future just as plain,
When in his turn my boy shall sail
To school by aeroplane.

HUMAN SKELETONS FOUND.
Sam III. Godsey of Mills County,
Digs up Bones of Eight Indians
i'm His DOoryard.

Glenwood, Ia, Dec. 15.-Sam H.
Godsey, living in western Mills
county, was spading the ground
near his kitchen door yesterday,
when he uncovered grave contain
ing eight human skeletons.
While his father was digging, the
son saw what appeared to be a hui
man bone protruding from the
ground. Further spading revealed
the skeletons. Coroner j. M. Done
Ian of Glenwood was called to inves-
tigate.
According to local authorities, a
boarding house was conducted on
the spot sixty years ago, during the
building of the Burlington railroad.
Either the front door or porch was
over the grave.
The coroner declared the skele-
tons to be those of Indians, six
adults and two children, and proba-
bly, all were buried at the same time.
No stones or metallic articles were
in the grave. The bodies were bur-
led in various way, some face down.
In one end of the grave were the
skeletons of one adult female and
the children, and in the opposite
end, the males.
The skeletons were assembled and
buried in Martin chapel cemetery
near Poison.

THREE BLIND CONVICTS
Trio of Prisoners in Fort Madison
Sightless UnfOrtunates.

Fort Madison, Dec. 15.-Confined
in the Fort Madison penitentiary
are three men who are unable to
perform even the simplest of tasks
on account Of their defective eye
sight Two of the inmates are to-
tally blind, while the third mans
sight is so bad that he can barely
distinguish any object, and there
fore all of them have nothing to do
to keep the time from hanging
heavily on their hands.
Two of the blind prisoners arc
serving life sentences, both having
Deen found guilty of murder; the
third man was given a long SEN
tence for breaking and entering.
How the man could expect to steal
something he could not see is be-
yond the comprehension of all Who
know his condition. One Of the
men serving life, murdered his wife
and then attempted to commit sui
eide by shooting himself in the head,
but his placing of the weapon was
not proper for fulfilling his inten-
ton, so insteai of killing himself
he shot both eyes out.
The daily routine of the blind in
mates is practically the same. All
of them have regular beats which
they traverse daily, and as all of
them have been members of the in
stitution for several years they man
age to get round the place nicely
by themselves. About the only
time a guide is necessary for them
is when going to the dining room,
where they can not find their pla-
ces without assistance. Each man
has a prisoner read to him nearly
every day, the reader usually being
one of the men confined to the hos
tai, and as q result of having other
inmates read to them so often the
three are very we'll read and up to
date on current events.
The blind trio are all very anx-
ious to work, as this would be
great relief to them in Willing
away the long hours, but after be-
ing assigned at different tasks they
were unable to perform them and
were once more forced to pass the
days the best they could. On ac-
count of having travelled the same
beats for such long time the three
men have the distance which they
are permitted to walk right to the
end of the sidewalk and turn and
right back again without having to
ever stop and feel around with the
canes which they carry.

SHOW COST OF
GLEN GARDNER
Considered High But Not as
Much to Others.
CFrom the NEWS correspondent.)

(From the NEWS Correspondent
Trenton, Jan. 20.-Although the
weekly per capita cost of the State
tuberculosis ~Sanatorium for the
past year continued high, having
been 8.84 gross, it was operated at
a less expense than some of the
other similar institutions in the
country. The annual report of the
Glen Gardner Sanatorium just filed
with Governor Wilson by the Board
of Managers, shows the per capita
weekly cost in some of the other to-
berculosis institutions, as follows:
District of Columbia, 1913; Rhode
Island State Sanatorium, $9.11;
three institutions in Massachusetts
the per capita weekly cost running
from 1857 to 1913.
During the past year 458 patients
entered the sanatorium, of whom
81 were treated for $500 a week,
the state bearing the entire mainten-
ance of the remainder. The number
Of patients discharged was 438, Of
whom So left the institution after
a residence Of less than one month.
and are not considered in the final
results summarized In the report.
The greatest number of patients
present at any one time was 1875, on
August z, last. The average length
of residence for the considered pa
tents was At months.
The average gain in weight per
patient was IL pounds. DR.. Samuel
B. English, superintendent Of the
sanatorium, in his section of the re-
port, gives the following summary
of the results of the treatment dur
ing the year:
Cases apparently cured, As, or IL
per cent; cases In which the tuber-
culosis was arrested, ITO, or 20 per
cent; cases improved. 1872, or AZ per
cent; cases not improved, so, or Is
per cent. The number of patients
who died was 2.
The report shows that since the
employment of a manager for the
farm, the farm has proved more
profitable. An epidemic Of cholera
killed many of the hogs on the farm,
causing a loss of $500. The needs
of the institution presented in the
report are: A sewage disposal plant,
an infirmary for the inmates need
Ing special treatment and an addi-
tional building for female patients.
