TRIAL OF MAMMALIAN

In view Of the present disturbed con- ditions in Mexico the trial of Emperor Ferdinand Maximilian Joseph, the Austrian, is of especial interest. It was only little more than half cen tury ago that Mexico was the scene of very much the same character of revolution that exists in that country today.
 Maximilian accepted the throne of Mexico in an evil hour It was not his own wish that he should become the ruler of a country with which he had no sympathy whatever. but his am bilious wife goaded him on, picturmg to him the honors and riches that would come to them. Instead, what sad state MaXimilian lost his life and Charlotte went mad.
 When the French army had virtually conquered Mexico the people agreed to adopt monarchial form of government under a Catholic prince, who should take the title of emperor, and Napoleon offered the Mexican crown to Maxi milan. His brother, the emperor of Austria. was strongly opposed to his accepting the offer. but the influence of his wife was too strong to over come the objections. All the difficult ties and dangers were pointed out to | them. but Charlotte scorned the counsel 1 of the timid With characteristic | self confidence, she was certain that | she could direct her husband, placate i his enemies and establish his rule in I Mexico.
 1 MaXimilian felt reluctant to mount a i throne which sat over the crater of a volcano. However, the new emperor and his wife entered the capital on tine seated on the throne than the clergy, a 1 large and official body. maintained that 1 he should restore to them their inn mense properties which previous gov ernments had confiscated. He found it impossible to comply. and the clergy used their power to weaken the rule of the sovereign
 Finally. when things had become in a turbulent state. Napoleon sent spe- cial messenger to Maximilian stating that he was no longer able to support him and advised him to return to Europe. Charlotte begged him not tC sign the addiction, and she started foI Europe to talk over the matter with Napoleon. The scene with the em- peror was an exciting one. and hei troubles preyed so upon her mind that she became insane
 News of the madness of Charlotte came as q crushing blow to her affec-
 tionate husband who harassed on al

 It will not be long before alcohol will be the motive power of automo- piles, but the alcohol will have to be in the tank of the machine instead of where it is now, in the tank of the chauffeur, Most of the fatalities in automobile travel comes from joy riding" merely another name for a load of intoxicated pleasure seekers who endanger the lives of every other user of the highway as well as their own.
 Rule "G" of the book of rules adopted by the American Railroad association reads as follows: The use of intoxicants by employees while on duty is prohibited. Their use, or the frequenting of places where they are sold, is sufficient cause for dis missal"
 But do you question the right Of the railroad company to enquire into the personal habits of it's men? IT you do, forget it. They have an ab- solute right to know the comings and goings of their employees so far as it relates to their occupation. That is a right preservative. Efficiency is requirement of any business, and efficiency and alcoholic liquors are enemies. Henry Ford the great manufacturer and philanthropist, says:
 Tt is our business to see that they (the employes) spend their money right. That applies not only to the men out there in the shop, but to everyone in this organization all the way up to the top. We have stopped ! some of our highest paid men from spending money improperly" ! Henry Ford is right Personal lib- erty is misnomer The lives and ] habits and relations of all men are i too much interwoven to segregate any individual and permit him to dc as he pleases. More and more the forces of regulation and prohibition are closing around the evil things ol life. More and more liquor is being outlawed by big business and tho question of sentiment is not the only force that will conquer in the end.

 A day later the plot to smuggle Max imilian away was discovered and it's principal promoter, Phince Salm-S Salm was threatened with being shot. The trial of the emperor by court martial took place on June 13 in the Iturbdc Theatcr, at Nueretaro, which was dec orated with flags as if for a festival. The judges were six young captains, several of whom could neither read nor write, presided over by Lieutenant Co., lonel Plato Sanchez Knowing that the trial would be a mockery of justice the emperor refused to be present, and while it was preceding passed the tims alone in his cell in reading the history of Charles I of England
 Three Of his judges voted for the Eanishment of Maximiian. and three for his execution. the casting vote, which led to the execution, being given by the presiding officer. who later on was shot by his own men. Neither the emperor nor his friends. with one or two exceptions. believed that the sen tence would be carried out.
 But the Mexicans of the sixties were as today. blood thirsty, and nothing would satisfy them but the death of the emperor. who was shot on June 16. 1867. What sad ending of the hopes and ambitions of Charlotte who, it was ordained. should spend the rest of her life in a madhouse. never realizing what had become of her husband she had influenced to such a terrible fate Tomorrow-Trial of Fit.

In such case, all communica- tions received at this office from other sources will be rejected. We believe that this arrangement is ne cessary to keep the discussion within reasonable lines

DIR. H. H0LKE
LEAVES SUDDENLY
Takes Early Saturday Morning Illinois
Central Train, Leaving Note Say
ing Had Gone to Springs.
LEAVES MEDICINE FOR PATIENTS
Professed Great Fright at What He
Claims a DastardIy Act Of Throw.
Eggs at His Office.

DR.. Heinrich j. Holke suddenly took
his departure from Denison ON Satur-
day morning on an early train over
the Illinois Central railroad. He left
note addressed to the city marshal,
saying that he was going to the
springs to be treated for rheumatism
and would remain away few weeks.
We are unable to state whether his
going is permanent or not, but it
looks as if he might not return.
The doctor professed great fright
at what he claims was the dastardly
act of some people in throwing eggs
against his office and offers that as a
reason for going away. He also took
exceptions, so we understand, to the
remarks of the Review in last weeks
paper, dealing with the question of
the unlawful assault upon the build
ing.
He left medicine in his office for
certain of his patients and directed
the city marshal to see that the medi-
cine is delivered to the patients. 1t
is predicted the doctors going is per-
manent and that he will not return
at the time he says in his letter to
the marshal.

Inc case OF f1enry stewart, port
er on the Chicago & Northwestern
sleeper, was up for trial the latter
part of the week. This is the gentle
man who found a handbag on the west
bound passenger train on January
21st, which belonged to Mrs. Hitting
er, of Sterling, ILL.,, who with her hus-
band was passenger on the train
Stewart took a watch out OF her bag
and some six or eight dollars in mon
own name in Chicago. A detective
in the employ of the railroad company
found the watch in pawn shop and
was able to identify Mr.. Stewart as
the man who left it there. Mr.. Kit
finger came to Denison and swOre out
the information and when the porter
came through on Thursday of last
week on his usual run he was arrest
ed by Sheriff Cummings and taken in
to custody. 1t did not take long to
enable the defendant to figure out the
net in which he had been caught and
feeling that his Jig was up he con-
fenced by Judge Powers for period
of five years at Ft. Madison and was
Immediately taken by Sheriff Cum
mings to his temporary future home.
No doubt but what this prompt pun
ishment coming to this porter will
have salutary influence upon the fra
ternity throughout the country, and it
will be long time before another
porter will take the chances of appro
priating the property of passenger
in his charge.
Several cases of minor Importance
have been disposed of during the term
but few cases of any particular i'm
portance have been tried.

Court Grinding Away on Second Week
Of Term-Csse Of Champion vs.
Champion Now On Trial.
STEWART DRAWS FIVE YEARS
Porter en- Northwestern Accused Of
Taking Handbag. Receives Sen-
tence and Taken to Pen.

District court is grinding away on
the second week of the term. The
case which was predicted would take
all OF this week to conclude the trial
was disposed or on Tuesday after
noon by a settlement. This is the
somewhat famous case of Esher
against Carroll county, brought to re-
cover damages on account OF personal
injuries caused by the falling of a
bridge over which Esher was driving
in Carroll county. The case was
brought here on change of venue and
tried about five or six years ago and
verdict returned in favor of the
plaintiff in the neighborhood of
$1,000 This verdict was set aside by
the supreme court and about three
years ago the case was tried again
with the result that verdict of be-
tween $1,000 and $4,000 was returned
in favor of the plaintiff. When the
case was called for trial on Monday
a disposition seemed to exist on both
sides to settle it with the result that
settlement was concluded on yester
day afternoon. in which the plaintiff
was allowed in the neighborhood of
$4,000. This settlement was logical
concluson of the case in view of the
possibilities Of additional expense
falling on both parties.
The settlement of this case some
what disarranged the assignment Of
cases inasmuch as no other case was
ready for trial at the time the settle
meDt was concluded, but business has
SO shaped itself that from now on
there will be something to try until
court closes.
The case of Champion against
Crampton is now on trial and will
probabi.t occupy day. or two. It is
an action brought by son to have
his father declared of unsound
mind and to have guardian appoint
ed 1t is claimed by the son that the
facts are such as to warrant the ap-
pointment of guardian, while the
father asserts there is no ground what
ever for such action. The evidence to
be educed will have to settle the mat
ter and comment upon the evidence
would be improper at this time.

FUNERAL SERVICE
MRS. N. M0L0NY
Well Known Resident of Coon Grove
Passes Away at C!arinda SAM
.tarium on Sunday.
SEVEN CHILDREN SURVIVE HER
Married to Michael Mo!ony in Year
1873 and Resided on Farm
in Coon Grove.

The funeral services Of Mrs. Michael
Molony. Sr. were held this morning at
10 O'Clock at the st. Rose Of Lima
church, Rev. Father Farrelly offic,at-
ing, after which the body was laid to
rest in the Catholic cemetery.
For the past few years Mrs. Mo!ony
has been in delicate health and spent
greater part of the time in a sani-
tarium at Clarinda, Iowa, at which
place she quietly passed away on last
Sunday, February LIST. The day she
passed away was the 59th annivers-
ary of her birth, and it was indeed a
sad coincidence that her keeper should
call her to her eternal home on the
anniversary of her birth.
The deceased was the only child of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Ayres. former resi-
dents of Hayes township, and was
born near Davenport on Feb. l.,
1856. She was united in marriage to
Michael Molony on the first day of
November, 1873, and resided with her
until her health failed her and she
was taken to a sanitarium at Clarin-
da for treatment some few years ago.
This union was blessed with eleven
children, seven Of whom survive to
mourn her death, namely: John and
Will. of Vail; Margaret, wife of John
Champion, of Vail; Kate. Dan and
Michael. residing south of Denison.
Mrs Molony made many friends in
Crawford county and all who knew
her will retain pleasant memories Of
this excellent woman and amiable
mother. During her long illness she
had the sympathy of a host of friends.
The Review joins with many friends
in extending heartfelt sympathy to
the bereaved relatives in this their
hour of sorrow.

Crawford County State Bank.

In another part of the paper is pub
lished the statement of the Crawford
County State bank on Jan. %, 1914. 1t
appears that it's total footings are up
to practically a million dollars. Since
the date of the report the footings
have run above a million and up until
few days before the statement was
called for the footings had run above
a million.
The condition of the bank would
thus appear to be eminently satisfac
tory in showing a prosperous condi.
tion. The banks of Denison are q
credit to the community and reflect
the prosperity that abounds in the
vicinity.
