When Henry F. Reichman, deputy

keokuk this morning from near the
Des Moines river bridge, he spied on
the river bank, near Taber's mill. a
small white jar. When he opened the
jar he found a note inside the jar.
Here is what the note said:

Deputy Warden Reichman has the
note In his possession and the small
white Jar in which it was enclosed.
He intends sending the note to the
Mosby mentioned, in the hopes of dis
covering whether the case Is hoax
or whether some one really did COM
NIT suicide here last Wednesday.
The note was in Mentholatum jar
which was empty. 1t has screw top,
and could be made water tight. The
jar when found, was lying on the riv-
er bank about twenty feet from the
edge of the water. Whether 1t had
ever been thrown in the water and
was washed back on the bank, or
whether it had been left on the bank
lpurposely was matter Of conjecture.
The bottle was found between Taber's

New York World: The country is
now treated to list of the names OF
those Americans who were travelling
abroad when the war broke out over
a year ago and who, having been help
ed home with public funds, are still
delinquent in paying the money back
into the public treasury. 1t is a pain
fully long list. 1t deals with persons
who obviously possessed the means OF
getting back home or they would not
have been travelling abroad. The war
cut off their ability to cash in their
travelling credits. So a considerat ,
government advanced the money with
out other security than confidence in
their sense of honor and gratitude for
services rendered. This confidence
proves to have been misplaced. Plenty
of time and warning has been given.
We are only to conclude that there
are so many persons in the country
without need of the charity who are
yet willing to be posted as objects of
charity at the hands Of the national
treasury.
