ument that will attract atten- tion, instead of the hundreds of large slabs of granite which mark the positions of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other nor thern troops.
 During the recent reunion Florida and Alabama unveiled monuments which compare fav- oraI! y with the large monu- me- of the northern states. It i3 such a monument that Ar kansas desires for its heroes. There were two Arkansas regi- ments iu the fighting about Chattanooga, one being the Capitol Guards of Little Rock. These regiments were in the thickest of the fray, and two companias performed the feat of slipping through the entire northern army during the night and going from the summit of Lookout mountain across the valley, five miles to Missionary Ridge to join other Confederate troops there.
 Ii will reqa.ze at least S25,- 900 to erect q monument such as would show well besides the others being placed in Chicka- mauga park, and if the next leg islature i3 not asked for the en- tire amount, it will have 8 chance to appropriate at least $15,000 of it, the balance to be raised by popular subscription.

Davidson Case Still Pending.

Davidson Case Still Pending. Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, June 3.-The Ar
 kansas Supreme Court did not reach the Odus Davidson case for a decision Monday, as was anticipated. The members of the Supreme Court have been considering this case for two weeks now, and the delay ap- parently indicates there are
 some real weightys questions
 which must be gone over
 through many law books, all of which takes time.
 There has been considerable argument over this case, it be-
 ing contended by some that the
 failure of the Harrison court to have Davidson in the room when
 the jury returned a verdict of
 murder in the first degree
 against him, sets aside the yer
 dict, and Davidson cannot be twice placed in jeopardy for his life. Davidson was convicted of murdering Miss Ella Barham in a most brutal manner, near Har- rison, and was sentenced to hang last January.

TABOR'S OLD PEOPLE
ARE VERY ACTIVE

Tabor, Sept. 20.-Richard Draper,
who returned few days ago from
two months tour through the east,
is over 90 years Of age. He is as rudy
of countenance. erect in form, active
and energetic as many men at 40. He
makes garden, mows the lawn and al
ways saws and splits goodly supply
of wood for winter use. He made the
trip east wholly unaccompanied, visit
ing old friends and relatives In Ohio,
New York and various places In New
England and upon returning to Tabor
seems to have been renewing his
youth.
Mrs. Joanna Young. another old
timer of Tabor, started west today to
take UP government claim and grow

over 80 years old but. has faith In the

MOTHER REWARDS
RESCUER OF CHILD

Eldora, Sept. 29.-Something like
twenty-five years ago one Charles
Penn, then as now resident of Ell
dora. at the risk of his own life, saved
Frank Devendorf, mere child, from
being killed by ferocious cow The
animal had caught the child in its
horns and had hooked and trampled
the baby's body. Penn rushed to the
childs aid and while suffering for
weeks with a broken hip and other
bruises, managed to get the baby
away from the animals attempts at
destruction.
Recently Mr.. Penn bought Of the
Devendorfs lot in the north part Of
town and has had carpenters at work
for weeks building house upon it.
The first payment was due on the lot
and Penn was somewhat at a loss
to know how he was going to meet
the demands. The other day he was
notified by Mrs. Devendorf to meet
herself and husband up town at an
abstracter's Office where the payments
were to be made. Penn complied with
the request and was on schedule time
to make his first payment on the little
home. Imagine his surprise when the
mother Of the child that Penn had res
cued from seeming death, turned over
to his astonished gaze a warranty deed
to the place, free from all incumbrance.

COUNCIL BLUFFS HOST
TO CONVENTIONS

Council Bluffs, Sept 2O.-Counci Gil
Bluffs will again be the guest of many
state wide visitors when, during the
opening days of October, the annual
conventions Of both the Iowa State as
ISOLATION of Veterinarians and the
Iowa association Of chiefs OF police
will be held here. Both organizations
are headed by Bluffs men, DR.. D. H.
Miller heading the VETS" while Chief
of Police c. F. P. Froom of this city
is president of the chiefs.
The veterinarians will hold their
meetings during October 1, 2 and 3,
while the chiefs will meet on October
2 and only. ..
During their sessions the veterinary
men will probably hear lectures from
the distinguished veterinarians from
throughout the Missouri valley and al
so conduct a discussion of problems
and methods calculated to be of benefit
to the members. Then, on the third
day Of the convention, DR.. Miller will
hold clinic at his veterinary hospi-
tai on South First street.
The chiefs who will probably hold
their meetings in either the library or
auditorium and will doubtless discuss
legislation which the association fav-
ored at the last session of the state
legislature. A number of speakers are
expected from elsewhere to address
the convention and an interesting ses-
sion is promised all who attend.

VANDERBILT
FOR FRESHMEN

Mt. Pleasant, Sept. 20.-The annual
reception given by the college Y. M.
C. A. was held in the city association
building last evening at 1880. The OBJ
ject of the reception was to help the
new men in school to become acquaint-
ed with old students and the existing
school traditions and customs. The
following toast program was given:
Senior class-Herbert N. jeffrey.
llege-President Schell.
Junior class-Stanley Newell.
Y. M. C. A.-Ralph Hileman.
Sophomore class-Edwin Taylor.
Freshmen class-Earl Vandergrift OF
Ottumwa.
The bitter feud which has been
waged for the past few days between
the junior and senior classes Of the
high school class terminated in q free
for all fight on the town square. Some
juniors placed their col
ors upon rings and strung them across
Main street from the top story OF the
Brazelton hotel to the fourth story OF
the National State bank. The seniors
felt called upon to lower
the obnoxious standard A small riot
en- sued. After about two hours Of In
termittent but bitter strife the colors
were still In their original position.
No serious injuries resulted.

years, and this would constitute our
entire system of county roads as now
designated. The other half assessed
TO lands within two miles Of the paved
roads would place a special paving tax
Of $40 per annum per quarter section
Of land upon quarter sections abutting
a concrete pavement, $50 per annum
upon quarter sections next back, $40
per annum upon quarter sections next
and $40 per annum on quarter sections
two miles back. For graveled roads the
special paving tax would be SIS and
$40 and IS and IS per annum per
quarter. section Of land respectively.
Talk about your Lincoln highway
which Is to come through Marshall
town, you fellows need not cry about
it. If the next legislature will let us
bond the present Brockaway road tax
assuming that Marshall county Is an
average, every county in Iowa can
have a concrete Lincoln highway con-
Meeting 1t with every other county
seat in the state and twice as much
graveled road besides ~.
Still the Brockaway levy in our
county is less than our bridge levy.
Only one mill of it falls upon town
property which is half as much as our
city park levy. The two mills which
falls on rural property alone taxes
farms the same as the town property s
public library levy for paved and
graveled roads. # az

THREE DAVENPORT
FLAGMEN DIE

Davenport. Sept. 20-Thre fagmen
at Rock Island railroad crossings in
Davenport have died suddenly within
the last six weeks, the circumstances
in two of the cases being strangely
similar. Dan Horner, Is years old,
the last victim, was found dead In his
chair in the shanty at the foot Of How
ell; street. Horner had been In Ill
health for some time, but friends did
not expect his death. When found he
was sitting upright in the chair with
his hands folded as he had often done
during the six years that he had acted
as fagman at this crossing.
The case similar to this was that Of
William Edwards. the hagman at Sec.
ond and Davie streets, who was found
dead in chair outside the door of his
shanty on August 5, by people who be.
lieved that he was asleep and tried to
awaken him, only to find that he had
been dead several hours Edwards
had been a flagman at the crossing for
two years and 1t was customary for
him to sit in the chair near the shanty
in which he died. He was SO years old
The other flagman who died within
the last six weeks was James A. Nc
Claim, II. who died on August IS af-
ter suffering stroke of apoplexy. Nc
CLAIM was the flagman at Fifth and
Gaines streets and worked up until a
short time before he died.
