eral years. The situation that finally
resulted in Hawley's recommendation
is unusual. The assistant postmaster
is under the civil service, and ordinar-
lily the incumbent holds through sue
ceeding administrations. When Presi-
dent Taft signitied his willingness to
appoint DIR. w. S. Devine, republican
county chairman, to the post office,
and the appointment later was held
up, Mcfarland became the candidate.
AS assistant he drew $1,000 salary.
President Taft finally appointed Nc
Farland at $4,000 salary, but the SEN

Mcfarland, however, was drawing the
postmaster's salary and not that of
the assistant. He had been advised
that he could return to his assistants
job in the event of democratic post.

holds that he exceeded his limit out

SLAYER IS IDENTIFIED
OF HENRY SPENcER'S
HAMMER SEES MURDERER.
~ Killed That Womanl" He Cries In
Terror as She Faints After
Meeting.

Chicago, Oct. S.-The most dramat-
ic scene that has occurred since
the first great sensation of Henry
Spencer's confession came when
Spencer and woman he had tried
to kill met In the detective bureau.
Spencer trembled for the first time
since his arrest. The woman screamed
and tainted.
DO you know this woman" he was
asked.
Sure. know her." Spencer said
But what gets me Ia that there she
stands-alive! I'd have sworn killed
that woman!"
At that point Mrs. Schramm
shrieked with terror and fell faint
ing.
That's one of the women / was
telling you about the other night"
Spencer said, as he turned to the de-
tectiye. Il guess maybe you won't
think I'm such liar now, will you?
! had every reason to think | had
killed her. knocked her cold with
the hammer. What skull that wom-
an must have" rs x,
This is the way Captain Halpln
summed up the situation: 3lg aM
I'VE know he killed Mildred Rex
roat. -ira s -.
I'VE know he killed Mrs. Annable
Wight. So. .,.- .sat.F-t y. sass.
I'VE strongly believe that he killed
a girl known as Bessie Connors near
st. Joseph, Micn. ssr.s rg
I'VE strongly believes't that he killed
another girl at about the same time
and place and that he did 1t with an
ak.
I'VE know that he assaulted and
nearly killed Mrs. Dora. Schramm OF
1897 Lincoln avenue.
I'VE know that he robbed fifteen
hotels.
I'VE know that he Brobbed about
thitry restaurants.
I'VE know that he robbed a number
of residences.
I'VE know that he did not kill Pc
licemen Pencil and Devine, and we
know that he did not kill Fannie
Thompson"
AS for the rest of Spencer's long
list OF professed murder victims, Cap
tain Halpin is not willing to assume
that the murders were not commit
ted merely because hei has failed to
receive reports of them. Halpin is
convinced that Spencsr's name viii
rank ultimately with, those of the
greatest murderers in history.

Falls in wen: Breaks lea. 7

Lynnville, Oct S.--Mrs. Simonton is,
recovering nicely from her unfortun-
ate experiences OF Monday and as
son as the broken bones in her leg
knit together she will be all right
again. While pumping water about
10 O'Clock Monday morning her
weight broke the boards over the
well and she fell in. In the fall her
leg was broken and there was twelve
feet of water In the well. BY grasp
ing the iron pipe leading down from
the pump, and bracing the foot of her
uninjured leg against the wall of the
well she managed to keep her head
above water. She called for help,
until her voice played out, and 1t was
over two hours, before her husband
came home to dinner and discovered
her predicament. ! II was feared that
the cold water might have a serious
effect on her, but she apparently has
recovered from this shock.

Negroes in Revolver War.

Carroll, Oct. Excitement at Car
roll last night was intense following
an alteration between two negroes
during the afternoon. Bob Mcdonald
was MORALLY wounded in revolver
battle with Jim Hutchinson, fellow
workman. Surgeons have extracted
four bullets, one of which penetrated
McDonald's abdomen. AS soon as
Hutchinson finished the assault he
made his escape to the nearby corn
fields, but was followed by several
men, who served as targets for the
fugitive. Posses were formed and
Hutchinson was traced to Glidden,
where he was routed from a freight
train and later corralled in a farmers
barn. The colored man surrendered
Ito Sheriff Hamilton without exchange
,of shots after the official pacified him.
Hutchinson is now in the county Jail.
