found guilty on three counts of having
sent obscene literature thru the mails.
Letitia Potter, aged 10, the pretty
pupil in question, attended the school

residing in Patterson, and received
his attentions. When he persisted in
spite of the fact that his advances
were distasteful to her. she was forced
to move to Des Moines. Gilloghy re-
signed his teaching position to accept
an appointment to the postmastership,
and it was while in this capacity that
he sent Miss Potter letters, addressing
her in endearing terms and making
improper advances.
Miss Potter was in court when the
verdict was returned with her father.
He was formerly postmaster at Pat

Burlington, May 24.-Secretary Frank
g. Pierce, of the League of Iowa Mu-
inequalities, was in Burlington for a
short time Saturday en- route from a
trip east to his home inv Marshalltown.
While in Burlington Mr. Pierce dis
cussed the proposals for raising money
to cover the deficit that will be made
are retired on Jan. 1.
The secretary Of the league wrote
the Burlington city officials some time
since in answer to general call sent
out by Mayor Moorhead for a meeting
to discuss the propositions that might
be advanced by the members of the
organization. Mr.. Pierce seconded the
plan of the Keokuk official and asked
date at Des Moines.
There is every possibility that the
gathering will be held in the capital
city some time during the summer.
The necessity of meeting of that
kind has not been questioned. In Bur-
lington alone there will be a deficit of
some $4,000 and at this time there
can be no way figured for the officials
to run the city affairs with this big loss
in the income. Some suggestions have
been made by various Of the officials
of some of the Iowa cities, but none of
them has received any very wide prom
inence or publicity and it will be the
purpose of the meeting at Des Moines
to CLEAN the best from each of the
plans and to incorporate this srist in
one plan that will satisfactorily solve
the perrlexing problem.
After his conversations with the 10
sal officials Mr.. Pierce stated that he
was sure Of the hearty support of the
Burlington men in whatever action
would be taken by the league and he
expects to hear some valuable sug-
gestions from the focal officials at the
Des Moines meeting.

Fritz Kreisler reached America in the

nately, neither the injuries nor his mil
