CORPSE FOUND IN ICE.
Body Of Charles Collier Discovered in
Mississippi River


Burlington. Dec. 5.-The theory that
| Charles Collier who lived on a farm
on the Carthage Lake club grounds.
had met his death in the Mississippi a
week ago Thursday was substantiated
late Thursday afternoon when his life
less body was found frozen stiff in an
| ice-pack a short distance south Of the
big bridge, near the Illinois shore.
The gruesome discovery was made
by Walter Ryan, Golfers stepson, who
lives at 1885 South Main street, and
Frank Dalton Of 3O4 Angular street.
They were on their way to Golfers
deserted farm to care for the neg
lected stock to and spend the night
there. They made their way across the
bridge and then went down along the
ice south of the bridge, as the farm is
located just quarter Of mile south
of the big span.
1t seems evident, from the circum-
stances. that heart disease was either
the real or remote cause of the mans
death in the river. He was subject
to heart attacks 1t is said, and as his
body was found lying face upward in
less than q foot of water. there Is
little likelihood that he was drowned.
1t is supposed that he fell dead. and
relied out of the boat. which was
found nearby. frozen in the ice, or that
he suffered an attack and fell out OF
: the skiff and froze to death. IS
There was no evidence that the man
had struggled for his life He was
found lying with all of his clothes, in
Guiding his rubber boots and woolen
mittens on, and his glasses had not
been removed. The boat, which ap-
parently had aoated just short dis
tance and then became fast in the
floating, and gorging ice, was partly
filled with ice and the oars We're miss
ing.

Grinnell, Feb. 5.-The Grinnell Aero
plane Company has been planning
some large things and it looks now as
tho the plans might materialize and
lead later to good commercial profits.
Some time ago Aviator Robinson, ct
this city, sent letters to the adjutant
generals of all of the states, making
them the offer of free tuition in prac-
ttical flying for one officer in the mill
tia of each of the states. Favorable
responses have been received from sew
eral of the states but word comes from
one that there is no state militia there.
Robinson has now two machines ready
for active service and the aviation In
struction can proceed from the hour
the first pupil in the art Is on the
ground ready for his lesson. Both Avi-
ator Robinson and his mechanician are
prepared to give lessons and another
teacher will be on hand If needed. It
seems now as tho the first class, linn
tied to twenty pupils. will be filled be-
fore long as there are many inquiries
from persons who are anxious to gain
experience in the new mode OF locomo-
ton and in the handling of the ship Of
the air.
Mr.. Robinson had plans made to
start his bird eastward along the Rock
Island to meet the presidential train on
Tuesday last and accompany it few
miles. BY some misunderstanding the
signal was not given to him in time
and he lost the opportunity of showing
this unusual honor to the commander
in-chief of the army and navy Of the
limited States

| Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. Feb. 5.-senator A. M.

some strange stories today from Wood

were involuntarily precipitated into

leys because Of the icy landscapes.
During the ice coated period, begin
ming Saturday morning, Jan. 20, ana
for three or four days thereafter, no
animal could keep its feet very lons
| on the side of a hill. AS consequence
| many or them slid down and were url-
able to get out of the valleys and RAJ
vines because they could obtain no foos
hold.
A peculiar incident happened on the

ward. A calf slid down hill and col,
lided with a horse. knocking the horse
down and so seriously injuring 1t that
/ it died. The calf was not hurt
Fred Wornli, another farmer living

| flock of sheep and all Of his hogs the
other morning. After making some
search he found them down In a ra-
vine helpless. 1t was no use to try to
; drive them out because they could not
stand on the ice. He was consider
ably worried as to how he could get the
| animals out of the ditch. Finally he
| resurrected on old sleigh and long.
stout rope. Bringing his best shod
team to the brow of the hill he sta
toned the horses there while he let
the sleigh down the hill. With some
| assistance he managed to get all of the
animals out by loading few Of them
at a time into the sleigh and by means
Of the long rope hauling them up to
the brow of the hill and to safety.

legged Personal Injuries.
Ottumwa, Feb. 5.-A suit for $50. 1000
personal injury damages has been filed
in the district court by G. w. Chambers
against the Ottumwa Railway & Light
Company. Chambers claims this
amount for an injury he alleges he re-
ceived on Sept. s, 1915, while standing
on Glenwood avenue near the inter
section of Miner street. He claims it
was caused by wires belonging to the
company and stationed in that vicinity.
The petitioner gives his age as 40
years and the time Of his life's expec-
fancy as 2446 years. He says that
he was struck and severely burned
and injured by the high tension cop
per wires there which he says carry
q voltage Of 1900 volts. He charges
that the company was negligent in not
having these wires properly strung
and. by the lack of proper precautions
around the poles, cross arms and guy
wires.
He says that his injuries were so
serious that he was compelled to go
at once to the hospital where he stayed
until Thanksgiving day. His accident
is alleged to have caused portion, of
his scalp to be burned, affecting the
sight Of one eve, his right hand was
burned so severely that two opera
tons were necessary, one to remove
the thumb and three fingers and the
second to amputate the arm above the
wrist and his-left had was strained,
the tendons destroyed and the loss OF
the arm suffered. He says that it was
necessary then to graft skin from his
limbs on his arm and the former have
been permanently disfgured and weak
ened. In addition to all Of this he
maintains that his back and feet are
severely burned and threaten to be per-
manent in their weakness
