Records Of Jennie Steele HueeIe APP

Prepare to Continue Fight and Begin
Suit to Compel Former Polk County
Superintendent to Pay $500.

Special 10 Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 33.-Another turn
has been taken in remarkable per-
sonal and semi political controversy
here. A committee of taxpayers caused
TO be made a very exhaustive investi
CATION into the accounts and records
of the former county superintendent.
Mrs. Jennie Steele Huegle, and the ac-
countants reported to the committee
in substances, that she had accounted
for every dollar of funds in her hands
and had turned over TO the county all
that the county was entitled to. But
there rs suit pending in court to compel
her to pay about $1,000 to the county
the claim being based on the report Of
an accountant in the service Of the
board of supervisors.
For a number of years Polk county
had two women in county Offices, Mrs
Huegle and Mrs. Frank W. Dodson
county recorder. They were unusually
capable officials. They did not neglect
the duties of their office or spend their
time IL politics. They were accommo-
dating and cheerful But their places
were wanted. Fights were started
against one or the other and all sorts
of attacks were made on them. but the
voters stood by them Mrs. Dodson
especially became the object Of attack
because she insisted on reforms in Jury
matters. Mrs Huegle brought the
county schools up to high state o.
excellence
Finally a little over a year ago the
attack was renewed and the two women
were defeated. In the case Of Mrs.
Huegle there followed bitter and I'M
relenting warfare. apparently for the
purpose of completely besmirchipg her
by the claim she had not been right in
her financial accounts. A county ac-
countant made examination of the
books and. for instance. on one oc-
casion recommended suit for a certain
sum claimed as not paid. but later
backed up when Mrs Huegie produced
the receipt So the entire warfare
seemed to have been on manufactured
evidence.
In all probability Mrs. Huegle will be
completely exonerated in court even as
she is by the public now. The warfare
made upon women in Office appeared to
be largely because men We're Jealous of
them and because they were women. It
is chapter Of disgrace in Polk county
history.

Changes Subject of Address.
1t was Mr.. Bryan's intention to speak
on the theme, Current Issues. but
matters of state are in such a delicate
condition that he abjured that subject
and fell back upon theme that Is
safer and sancr one in which no pos
sibility may arise where the secretary
will embarrass the department over
which he has the honor of presiding.
In an interview here Mr.. Bryan made
no comment upon the delicate problems
which are pressing upon the admin
istration for solution. He stated. how
ever. that he would hasten from Ade'
tonight for Chicago and from there
would take a fast thru train FOR Wash

in the state department some time next
Friday.
At $50 o'clock the hour for the lee

on his salary Of 1000 year. will be
better able to combat the high cost of

FORSYTH HAS GOOD BILL,

Much talked about tabloid musical
comedy will be introduced at the For
syth on Monday afternoon, opening the
season of this new style of entertain
ment. There will be three performances
daiy--a matinee at 2:30 o'clock each
afternoon, ten cents for all seats. and

ern end of the new circuit. frst-cIass
theaters of the Forsyth type have been
devoted successfully to the policy, and
the scale Of prices has been accepted by
the best people In fact, the fad has
been accepted by society as one of the
events.
tabloid musical comedy means the
adoption of a standard comic opera or
musical comedy for an hour and a
quarter of action. Nothing is left out
of former success that is worth while,
and there is no "stalling" to kill time.
The opening attraction at the For
syth will be THE Isle Of Spice" the
famous B. c. Whitney comic opera. A
company of twenty players will be seen,
and a merry grille chorus will add to
the merit of the attraction.
The offering has been seen in the

The tabloid scheme is to take full
ledged musical comedies and comic op-
eras and cut out all but the most es-
sential lines. All the music will be pre-
served, however, and the action speed
ed up a trihe. A new play and a new
company will be seen each week. The
scheme is already in successful opera
ton in the East. and Atlanta, in the
Southern section of the circuit, will get
its first chance to pass judgment Mon

At the Lyric the bill all the week will
be Where the Trail Divides" This is
an Indian play by Robert Edeson, and
the scenes are all laid on a ranch in the
West giving ample opportunity for
