WOMAN IDENTIFIED.
Stranger at oskaIoosa Former Inmate
of Nebraska Asylum.

Stranger at oskaioosa Former inma ate
Of Nebraska Asylum.
Oskaloosa, Feb. s.-The overseer OF
the poor, Miss Brown, made her report
Friday evening to the board of super
visors regarding the identity of the
woman being provided for by the
Kings Daughters, at the Oskaloosa
hospital.
From the correspondence it appears
that the woman was released from the
state hospital for the insane at Lincoln,
Neb., because her mental trouble was
not thought serious enough to warrant
further detention. She LEFT Lincoln for
Ia time, and stated upon returning to
work in the Central hotel of that city,
that she had been to visit her father
in Centerville, Iowa.
She quit the hotel last fall and was
at the Esther hospital of Lincoln I'M
dergoing an operation for appendicitis.
She left the hospital about the middle
Of last month. She was again exam
med for insanity but was not detained.
The woman was originally committed
to the Nebraska asylum from Oma ha,
and was registered under the name of
Josie Pewthers, but at other times she
insists that her name is Jane Smith,
and again, Jennie Mills. In the work
Of unraveling her history, It was found
useless to depend on names. Upon
leaving Esther hospital at Lincoln the
woman had not been seen or heard
from by acquaintance there till the
letters Of inquiry arrived from Oska-
lossa.
During her stay in the Oskaloosa
hospital the lady has proven her abil-
ity IS a modeler in clay and wax. Sew
eral animals made from beeswax are
really works Of art.

Merry Fight Duo as Soon as Ship
Purchase Bill 10 Disposed of-Pres-
ent Filibuster Remarkable.
Especial Correspondence


Washington, Feb. 8.-Once the senate
gets the ship purchase bill off Its
hands, there will be hot fight over the
river and harbor bill which has come
to re widely known as the pork bar
rel" bill.
The fact that the commerce commit
tee has reported a bill which carries
About s3s.0OO.00o and is increased
about 100000 over the house bill
means that the opponents of the pork
barrel" in the senate will subject the
measure to the most careful analysis.
Senator Burton. who intends to go
out of congress battling for what he
believes to be right system of making
river and harbor appropriations. will
make minority report from the COM
merce committee against the bill.
Senator Kenyon has long been loading
up with ammunition in the purpose of
going cunning for 1T.
FiIibuster Remarkable.
The senate for days has been In the
thro of one of the most remarkable
fiilibusters it has ever experienced. 1t
may find itself in the midst Of another.
Considerable doubt is felt whether the
river and harbor bill can be passed in
its present form, and unless it is ma
teria17-t reduced.
The advocates of the river and harbor
bill have played the game with clever
ness in one respect. They have re-
ported this bill to the senate ahead of
the other appropriation bills. This
gives 1t an advantage. It's supporters
well understand that it would not do
to put it behind the other appropriation
bills or it would be talked to death.
Senators Burton, Kenyon and the
comparatively few senators who are
willing to flibuster against the river
and harbor bill can not, of course,
maintain a protracted fight. But they
say they will let the country know the
nature of some of the projects.
The opponents of the river and har-
Dor measure are not fighting to cut off
river and harbor appropriations gener-
ally. They stand on the position that
meritorious projects only should receive
government money and pork" should
be cut off.
