FOUND DEAD IN cIsTERN.
Mrs. William Atkinson, Of Williams,
Commits Suicide.

Webster City, May 11.-Mrs. William
Allinson, one of the greatly respected
and oldest residents of Williams, was
found dead yesterday in a cisrern near
her home. Mrs. Allinson was the
widow of William Allinson, an old
soldier and one Of the Oldest settlers Of
Williams.
Severa years ago Mrs. Alluson's
mind became unbalanced. necessitating
her removal to sanatorium where
she was cared for for some time. Later
she improved so much that she came
home and lived alone in her home
town. A short time ago, she had q
very slight stroke of paralysis, falling
from the chair in which she was sit
ting and it was noticed that her mental
condition since that time was not the
best. A companion was engaged to
stay in the home with her and Sunday
night the woman, who slept upon cot
| in the sitting room, noticed that Mrs.
| Atkinson lay down upon her bed for the
night without removing her clothing
To her remonstrances, Mrs. Allison
replied that she did not wish to I'M
! dress, so the companion or nurse went
/ to sleep thinking that it would be i'm
possible for the patient to leave the
! house without her knowledge.
| Awaking yesterday she arose anc
went to call her patient who was not
in her room or to be found in the
house. One of Mrs. Allison's sons who
! lives in the town was summoned and
began search Of the premises
| Noticing the lid Of the cistern off he
went to replace it when he beheld his
mothers form. The cistern was about

Presidents Gives Hint Of Policy Toward

Iivsred to 1000 NaturaIixed Citizens.

Philadelphia, May II. President
Wilson gave to a gathering OF 1000
naturalized Americans last night the
first intimation of what course the
United States government will pursue
in the situation resulting from the loss
of more than hundred American lives
on the British liner Lusitania.
He spoke by implication but his
hearers interpreted his remarks as
meaning that while the United States
would remain at peace it would seek
to convince Germany OF the injustice
to mankind of the tragedy of last Fri
DAY.
America" said the president, must
have the consciousness that on all
sides it touches elbows and touches
hearts with all nations Of mankind
The example Of America must be a
special example and must be an exam
pie not merely of peace, because II
will not fight, but because peace is a
healing and elevating influence Of the
world, and strife is not.
Right Doesn't Need Might.
There is such thing as man be-
ing too proud to fight. There is such
as thing as being so right that it does
not need to convince others by force
that it is right"
These remarks precipitated a tumult
Of applause and patriotic enthusiasm
attended by waving Of thousands OF
small American flags. The president
made no direct reference to the Lusi-
tania tragedy, but the audience did
not hesitate to read the application
of his statement.
Introduced by Mayor Blankenburg
who spoke in distinctly German ac-
cent welcome and an appeal for q
single allegiance to the United States
the president carried forward the Idea
of the welding Of foreign blood In the
makeup Of America by pointing out
the true goal of American citizenship
to be a loyalty not to the country OF

Il do respectfully ask all county con-
suls to place their county section IN
as good condition rs possible, in order
that the official report may show the
Iowa division in first class shape as
to marking and having the highway
we'll graded and dragged. that the OF
ticials in their detailed report ana
moving pictures of the highway may
prove to the public that the choice OF
the Overland trail crossing Iowa was
a wise selection.
This work on the highway will not
only put it in good shape for the oftlc-
ials but also for the large number or
tourists who will use the Lincoln nigh
way in 1915.
AT an early date after this inspec-
ton party has crossed the state Will
call thes pring meeting at Boone when
we can have the benefit OF their OHIO
ial report to aid US in plans for the
present and future Improvements. At
this meeting we will expect every city
and town to be represented, as We'll as

and all friends of the Lincoln high

Trusting you will give this as much
publicity as possible in the county pa
pers in order to promptly enlist all
loyal friends Of the Lincoln highway
in your county in this good work on
the Iowa division"

In August OF 1914 the greater part

a time the shock was paralyzing. After
the recovery from the shock fnanciers
were still much concerned as to how

seemed that the commodity, cotton, on
