TURK "DEACoN" IN JAIL.
Leader Of Band Of Alien Beegars Un'
der Arrest in Des Moines.


Des Moines. Feb. F.-Deacon Joach-
i'm George. a member Of the Turkish
beggars' union, which has invaded the
United States. whom the authorities at
Salem, Mass, are seeking is held by
the government as prisoner in the
Polk county jail. -
Deacon George was one Of the east
ern missionaries and a suave pious
gentleman, who appeared in Des
Moines, Jan. "a. with letters Of intro
duction from bishops and patriarchs
of the HISTORIAN (Christian) church. A
terrible massacre had occurred in
Monsul, he alleged and more than 200
of his countrymen had been butchered
by the Mohammedans. More than 160
children had been left orphans. and the
deacon" was pilgrim to America that
he might beg money from Christians
to support an orphanage at Matha,
adjacent to the city Of Van.
Deacon George appealed to Mayor
Hanna for the privilege Of collecting
funds for this orphanage, but Mayor
Hanna was not SO greatly impressed
with the "deacon's" story as were the
people of Salem, and sent him to the
office of the Associated Charities.
Here is where the deacon" met his
Waterloo. Horace s. Hol)ingsworth,
secretary of the society, had had pre-
vious experience with eastern mis-
sionaries" who sought collections for a
righteous cause. Because of his in
ability to produce a cash book and
foreign money order receipts for re-
mittances said to have been sent to
the patriarch in this country. Secretary
Hollingsworth turned Deacon George
over to s. L. Whitfield, United States
immigration inspector. His travelling
companion, Elias Nichols. who was
arrested, was later released.
The United Charity. organization Of
New York has issued bulletin warn
ing the public against a band of ORR
entail solicitors. with headquarters on

bulletin tells the story of Deacon
Georges perfidy in Salem, Mass. and

Special to Times-Republican.

Eldora, Feb. 17.-Not many men who
crossed the plains in 1850 and who
mined gold out Of the hills in California
are yet alive, but Thomas ]. Sheldon,
Of this city. made the trip twice-once
in 1850 and again in 1853. The first
trip a large part Of the journey was
made on foot and many hardships were
encountered. The first venture proved
more or less financially successful, but
it was lonesome life out there among
strangers and Mr.. Sheldon longed for
the associations back home and he ac-
cordinSly took up the trail across lone
some hills and along dangerous paths.
But the spirit of adventure again took
hold Of him in 1853 and once more he
sought a fortune in the west, this time
with more success. In the fall Of 1854
Mr.. Sheldon came to Hardin county,
Iowa, and in the spring of 1855 opened
the first store in the town Of Point
Pleasant. Mr.. Sheldon was one Of the
county commissioners during the mem
orabl county seat war between Eldora
and Point Pleasant, which controversy
or iltlsation reached the supreme court
twice and which was finally terminated
in favor Of this city. Mr.. Sheldon pros
pered in farming and stock raising, at
one time being possessed of 1000 acres
of Hardin county land. To each of his
nine children he has given the equiv
alent OF quarter section Of land. free
OF lncumbrance. Altho nearing 80
years Of age. he is mentally alert and
his physical powers are not materially
affected. Almost every day he is able
to come up town. Mr.. Sheldon is DEM
ocrat of the old school and in the early
days was frequently the nominee of
his party for various county offices. He
is one of the strong men who came to
