SOLDIER TWENTY-o YEARS.
Charles Deeney So, Wears American
Legion euttop-Quits Army.

Ie4ioH puSto0-QutS Army.
Perry. Oct. 15.-Meet Mr.. Charles
Deeney, the youngest ss-year- old
man in the city-and perhaps the
oldest man in the country wearing an
American Legion button. He arrived
in the city today from Angel Island,
California, and In the future will be
a resident of Perry
( Mr.. peeney is an uncle of Martin
Deeney and while he has been in the
service for twentyone years, he has
always claimed Iowa as his home,
He leaves the service not because he
feels that he is too old but because
he Is of the opinion that twenty one
years is, long enough for any man to
put in at a job in the army.
Mr.. Deeney enlisted in the army
as volunteer when the trouble
broke out with Spain. At that time
he was Al years. OF age and he is
little hazy in his recollections as to
how hea made the recruiting officers
believe he was a youngster, but he
succeeded. He wanted to do his share
when his country was In need of
men. and he accepted gladly every
task imposed upon Inn. He was sent
tc the Philippines where he partici-
pated in several enga gements. When
peace was declared the army bug had
a good grip on him and he signed up
for another four years. Since then
he has re-enlisted several times and
it was not until the world war came
upon us and he was assigned to duty
in this country that he realized he
was getting old. Recruiting duty and
general service has been his lot in the
past few years.
Mr.. Deeney admits that he is all
most 20 years of age, but he doesn't
look it. The army life has made him
as young as most men of 45 or so.
He will leave tonight for his old home
at Waukon.i but after visit there
expects to return to Perry ito make
his home.

AGAINST HORSE TORTURE.
Senor de la Serna Denounces Bar
bario Practice.
cd BRASS

Madrid, Oct. 1.-THE practice Of
riding horses into the bull ring to be
mutilated and tortured by maddened
bulls without a chance of escape or
opportunity TO avoid attack is de-
nounced by Roman Gomez de la
Serna in La Tribuna. The writer
argues that the horse suffers agony
from the time he enters the ring
blindfolded, for he scents the bull
which he can not see and trembles
and perspires with fear.
Senior de Ia Serna remarks that
such a method of putting horse 10
death is unworthy of human dignity
and self esteem. He declares some
bull -fighters feel that such cruelty is
unnecessary and one of them, Minute,

Marquard incident bothers the Flat
bush squire greatly. When Ebbetts
learned RUDE had been found guilty
he replied instantly that the south
paw finger was thru as far as
Brooklyn was concerned. Ebbetts has
always been a great admirer of Mar
guard. 1t is said he has helped RUDE
out of several financial difficulties.
EbbettsH eyes filled perceptibly when
he pronounced sentence on the Mar
guard case, and Manager Robinson
declared later that the "old man.

Marquard been his own son.
