RIVER WATCHMAN
/. IS NOT MURDERED.
Physicians Contend That June ID.
Sales Dies From Exposure on
Craft in Winter Harhor.
AUTOPSY HELD IN DAVENPORT
Theory Is Now Advanced That Bur-
lington Man Is Taken III From
Drinking and Left to Die.

The theory of murder in the case of
June D. Sales, the watchman who
was found dead on the yacht Of e. D.
Stiles of Des Moines in the winter
harbor below Davenport yesterday
morning was exploded today when at
an autopsy It developed THAI the Sc
we're abrasions on his body were caus-
ed when. it was torn from the floor of
the cabin. where it had been frozen
to the boards. The physicians holding
the autopsy declared that the man
had died OF exposure
They were unable, however, to give
an explanation of the bloody ice tongs
found in the cabin or the blood clots
on the step outside the cabin.
The autopsy was conducted last
night at Bowling & Horrigan's under
taking parlors in Davenport as soon
as the frozen corpse had been thawed
out 1t was found that the blow on
the back Of the head had merely eaus-
ed an abrasion. and would not have
been sufficient TO cause even uncon-
sciousness. The investigation also
proved that Sales had died slowly, lin
gering probably six or seven hours.
Two theories are now advanced,
Coroner Cautwell is of the opinion
that Sales and his companions had
been drinking heavily for several
weeks without eating and that he was
seized with deIirium tremens and died
from exposure Mr Stiles, the owner
Of the boat, still thinks that Sales may
have had a fight with his companions
and had been rendered unconscious
and deserted Mr.. Stiles explained
that he met Sales five years ago when
he came to take a liquor cure at his
! institution in Des Moines, being later
employed by him He stated that
Sales did not start drinking until they
made a trip to New Orleans last sum
mer.

Whose Turkeys?

If one of your turkey hens wan
dered off to the woods and took
up with wild gdblers and raised
a flock of a dozen half breed tur-
keys and brought them home in
the fall and asked to be forgiven
for her depression, you would
not hesitate to welcome her to
the contents of your feed bin,
would you? Neither would we.
But suppose that three of your
hens went to the woods and two
of them failed to lead their half
breed offspring to the family
coop, what would you do in
that case? Are you to lose the
services of two hens because they
choose to become Bohemians? If
after placing before them tempt
ing inducements to return to civ
ilization, they persisted in taking
out naturalization papers with
William Penn, would you remain
neutral? Neither would we. If
the rightful owner of the mother
hen should, as a last resort, take
his gun and go out and shoot
some of the half-breeds for his
table, would the law be half bro
ken, or would it be even crack
ed?" Such is the life that some
of our Licking Creek and Taylor
townships Turks, are leading
their owners as related to us by
our friend A. S. Brant. We say,
shell the Darnrebelles and
force the Bosporus %

Can YOu Spell?

At Kokomo, Indiana, a few
days ago the superintendent Of
the schools held a spelling con.
test. Eevery person of the city
was eligible and six hundred took
the test. Of that number only
fifty-two made a perfect score.
Newspaper men, doctors, law.
yers, merchants, teachers and
scholars submitted lists of twen-
ty words each and from that to-
tai, twenty words were selected.
The complete list with the num-
ber of times each word was mis-
PEELED, follows; Miscellaneous,
1854; calendar, 324; parallel, 273;
privilege, 270; superintendent,
248; principle, 242; niece, 223;
lose, 2Ol; separate, l96; disap-
point, III; disease, 1854; principal,
142; necessary, 1877; business,
1870; relieve, 125; receive, 109;
truly, 85; government, 81; gram
mar, 70; believe, 73.
One woman, who made a per-
feet score, had been a servant
for sixty-three years and had had
only eight weeks schooling. A
county official, who had been in
business all his life, missed every
word. Another man only got
one right. One woman missed
all but three.
Here are the words, arranged
in the form of two sentences.
Hand this to a friend, ask him tC
dictate the sentences to you,
write down the words and see
how many you mis-spell:
THE privilege of separating
ninety miscellaneous calendars,
arranged in two parallel lines,
was against the principles of the
superintendent, so his niece, moi
to disappoint the government,
nor cause it to lose business, re.
moved the principal calendars
and thus relieved her uncle of &
strain which might have brought
on disease. Then she believed
it had become truly necessary fol-
her to receive her instruction ir
grammar.

Books Free as Water.

If every man or woman who
owns land, could be made to un-
derstand how easily he or she
could receive a technical educa-
tion on the subjects that pertain
to the maintenance of fertility
and kindred subjects, there would
be no further need of farmers
institutes. Or, if we had insti-
tutes, they would be more on the
order of conferences among farm
ers, themselves. No man will
admit that he cannot remember
from year to year what each
piece of machinery is for. He
never mistakes a plow for a cream
separator, nor does he mistake a
self binder for a safety razor.
Well, knowing the use of nitro
gen, humus, phosphoric acid, pot
ash. and the contents of stable
manure is fully as simple as to
remember the use of machinery,
and the only reason for thinking
differently is because so many
have made up their minds that
there is some mystery about it.
If.you have any doubt about it,
come to the NEWS office and. get
one of the little books we are Civ
ing away. Read it, and you will
wonder why mysteries" have
gone so long unsolved by the av-
erage farmer. Get one for that
bright boy of yours. None giy-
en- out to children the supply is
too limited.

Suffrage Leaders do Not Fear.

Harrisburg, March 20. "A brief
statement to the general effect
that now is the time to work rath-
er than talk, was made at the State
headquarters of the suffragets
here to-day by Mrs. Frank NJ.
Roessing, president of the State
Association. The statement was
issued in response to numerous
requests for an outline of the
campaign which the suffragists
are planning to carry the women
suffrage amendment to the Con-
stitution at the polls on Election
Day.
"On the Sth and 9th of April,
Mrs. Roessing said, our county
and city chairman will meet in
special conference here. At this
conference the campaign will be
discussed in detail and definite
plans made to reach every voter
in the State. Until then there
seems to be little excuse for state
ments of any sort beyond the de-
claration that we are confident
of winning the same success at
the polls as characterized our eff
forts in the Legislature. Every
loyal suffragist in the State help
ed to win the Legislative victory
and every one of them can be
depended upon to make even
more strenuous efforts in the be-
half of suffrage at the polls"
Mrs. Roessing further said; Il
do not believe there is one man
in a million who ever voluntarily
does anything which might be
constructed as unsportsmanlike.
Consequently l cannot help but
feel that the great majority of
men who vote on the suffrage
question this fall will give the
women the benefit of the same
spirit of fair play in reaching
their conclusions as governs them
in their consideration of other
important questions"

The Biggest Typewriter in the World.

A typewriter that is nearly
1000 times the size of the ordi-
nary machine is one of the novel
exhibits at the Panama-Pacific
Exposition. While installed prin-
cipally as an advertisement, this
enormous machine also serves an
other purpose of as great impor-
tance, since it is used for writing
newspaper bulletins that can be
read a block away. This mach
inc, which, is 21 ft. wide and Is
ft. high, is reported to have cost
100000. The type are 8 in. in
height and print letters which
are spaced 2 in. apart from CEN
ter to center. The weight of the
carriage is $500 h., the diane
ter of the key cup, which is the
part of the machine ordinarily
pressed by the finger, is 7 in,
while the hollow cylinder is large
enough for a man to crawl
through. For using the machine
paper 8 #. wide is required. A
picture of the machine appears
in the April Popular Mechanics
Magazine.

Want Three Dollars Poll Tax.

If the present legislature ear
ries out all of Governor Brum-
baugh's wishes, every man of
voting age will be taxed three
dollars year poll tax, with the
understanding that if he go to
the primary and cast a vote, he
will receive a rebate of one dol
lar; and if he then votes at the
next general election. he will re-
ceive a further rebate Of one dol
lar, and in this manner, he will
have paid no more than he now
pays. If the bill that is being
prepared be enacted into law, it
will stir the stumps of a lot of
men who are so Indifferent that
they seldom or never go to the
primaries to help nominate wor-
thy men; while n the other hand,
political clique. see to it that
men who can be bought cast their
votes for then henchmen, and in
this manner ell rench themselves
and their kind behind the doors
of important offices.
Mr.. Brumbaugh evidently
thinks land we agree with him)
that many of the men who do not
attend elections are the ones who
would vote right if they would
attend. Usually they are men
who do not meddle in politics;
but, as Mr.. Brumbaugh says,
they are the first to complain if
bad men are nominated. The
three-dollar poll tax is intended
to wake up this class, and if they
then fail to redeem the extra two
dollars, they will have contribut-
ed something toward making up
the deficiency caused by the elec-
tion of grafters. Let's have a
trial of the law by all means. 1t
will not hurt any who, by reason
Of sufficient cause, cannot at
tend one or both elections.

STOOP SHOULDERS.
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene by
Samuel G. Dixon, NJ. D., IL. D.,
Commissioner Of HEALTH.

SVhiniiooiOuVl vi uVdltns
Atlas bore the weight of the
heavens upon his head and hands,
according to Greek myth, but
those of mankind who carry the
the burden of life, too often let
it rest upon their shoulders.
Stoop shouldered men and women
by the thousands are to be found
among the followers of sedentary
occupations. Nine out of ten,
when the subject is mentioned,
will square away their shoulders
and say, Pm getting a little
careless about that" Then they
make a momentary resolve that
they will brace up and overcome
the fault. That it is a fault, and
one that has distinct bearing
upon health, there is no ques-
ton.
No system of physical culture
is complete which does not in
clude exercises which teach erect
carriage and deep breathing.
One of these is impossible with
out the other. In this lies the
chief i'll effect of stoop should
ers.
To maintain good health we
should use our lungs to their
normal capacity at all times.
The proper purification of the
blood through oxygenation re-
quires ample breathing. Drop
shoulders forward and then try
to take a full breath; see how
impossible it is to do so in that
position. Breathing with the
shoulders forward and the breast
bone depressed is only partially
accomplished. The lower portion
of the lungs cannot be emptied
and instead of receiving a sup
ply of fresh air they will be filled
with residual air.
To work, sit or walk, day aft
er day with the shoulders hunch-
ed forward, means that the lung
capacity is lessened just so much,
and a corresponding loss of vitali-
ty results.
Such a posture also permits the
sagging of the diaphragm, a re-
sulting displacement of the alb
dominal organs, and leads to Sc
rious digestive disturbances.
Do not resort to shoulder brac-
es or other mechanical means to
correct STOPPING shoulders. These
are but makeshifts which do not
