Grundy County Township Stirr
ed Up Over Law Suit Growing
Out of Lovers' Quarrel
SWAIN WANTS HIS PRESENTS
Gave a Widow Two Cows and Thirty
Chickens—Quarrel Follows and Suit
is Brought to Recover, But Justice
Says the Widow Msy Retain tha
Cows and the Poultry—Will be Ap­
pealed.
Special to Tlines-Kepublioan.
Wellsburg. Jan. 30.—A little dram
in real life, but with rural environ
ments and with cows and chickens
figuring as the lover's gifts ill place
of plated jewelry and photograph al
bums, is being enacted here, and the
people of two townships are spectators
without price. As a result of Justice
Barney Hook, of Pleasant township,
is pending several days in town looking
up poiats in Blackstone to reinforce
his ruling in a case just tried before
him.
The -cose was a most peculiar one.
It seems that a party by the name
of Jbhn iSeehusen has been living with
relatives in Pleasant Valley township
tore year, more or less, except the time
he has been "keeping company" with a
lady by the name of Mrs. Gelder, living
in German township near the Hardin
county line. The two, according to the
evidence brought out in Judge Hook's
court, have been very good friends un
til the last few weeks, when they had a
falling out. During the time they were
on good terms and lie was away from
her Mr. Seehusen was in the habit o£
writing the warmest kind of love let
ters to her and these letters, forty in
number, were introduced into court as
evidence. Unfortunately the letters
Mrs. Gelder had written had been de
stroyed by the recipient as soon as
read.
During the good natured period See
husen Qiad giv&n to the lndy at different
times two cows and thirty chickens
and, when the disruption came he want
ed them back. So papers were sworn
out in Judge Hook's court and Con
stable Walter Jalpin went and got the
cows and chickens.. To this Mrs. Gci
der objected and suit was begun with
D. E. Aukes as attorney for Mrs. Gol
der and D. Voogd for Mr. Seehusen
After hearing all the evidence Justice
Hook submitted the case to the jury
composed of Henry Hook, Ben Da
Vries, R. Junker, Dan and John Frit
zei and John Meints, who decided the
case in favor of Mrs. Gelder.
Now Seehusen wants to appeal the
case to the district court and is busily
engaged in finding some one to go on
his bond. The costs in the^ case, up to
Saturday were $52.05. Justice H.ook
said that Seehusen frequently stated
to Mrs. Gelder that he would marry
her but that he couldn't get a divorce
from a former wife in Illinois. Some
one however, has written to the clerk hi
Illinois and learned that a divorce /was
granted last November and when ton
fronted with this the poor man was
speechless.
It looks as If it would be cheaper
for the couple to "make up" and get
married but in the meantime the town
ship is getting a good deal of amuse
ment out of the affair.
HUNT FOR NEGRO OUTRAGER.
If He is Captured There May Be a
Lynching at Albia.
Albia, Jan. 30.—Earnest effort is be
ing made to fiitfi a 16-year-old negro
lad named Charley Parker, who is
charged with criminal assault upon
the little daughters of ex-County Re
corder C. A. Momyer and Edward Jol
lifit'e.
Parker enticed the girls .into the
basement of the Presbyterian church,
and two or three days later the girls
confessed to their mothers what liad
happened. As a result of the assault
upon her daughter, Mrs. Moymer is in
a critical condition, and it is feared will
lose her mind.
Parker's father is janitor of the pub
lic school building, and feeling is so
strong that the board of education
was compelled to discharge the man.
Should young Parker be captured
and brought back here, it would be dif
ficult to prevent mob violence.

Special to Tinies-Republlcan.
Iowa City, Jan.
30.—Theodore
Roose­
velt, Jr., a graduate student in the col
lege of dentistry of the State Univer
sity of Iowa, has just returned to the
city from a location-seeking trip thru
Kansas and the southwest that was
filled with exciting adventure from the
lime he struck Wlnfiekl. Kas. The
trouble all started over a case of mis
taken identities, aided by the fact thut
Roosevelt's traveling companion was
Dr. C. Li. Thomas, of Washington, Ia.
Entering the hotel at Winlield, Thomas
registered for both and wrote "Wash
ington" after both names. Shortly af
ter they had been shown to their
rooms, the bell boy brought up repre
sentatives of the press of that city, who
expressed great delight "in welcoming
the famous son of the president of the
United States to the linest state in t!he
union." Both Roosevelt and Thomas
promptly denied that Roosevelt was
the son of the president and that the
"Washington" signed on the register
meant "Washington. D. C." Explana
tions and denials were of no avail, how
ever, and the reporters were promptly
followed by delegations of profession
al and business men from tJhe city, self
uppointed on a committee of reception.
Anything in the city of Winfield or
the state of Kansas that the young
men would express a desire for would
be given them, according to the
spokesman of the party, who declared
that he had seen the president's son
years ago and that L'here could be no
mistake in the identity. Jack rabbit
hunts were proposed and the visitors
were offered everything in the way
of equipment from guns to horses. As
a last resort Roosevelt declared that
he and Thomas would have to proceed
to the next town on their list because
they were running sihort of funds and
they were expecting remittances at
that point. Even this failed to shake
the nerve of the loyal Kansans who
were determined to show the son of
the president that the citizens of the
Sunflower state knew ihow to entertain
a relative of the nation's chief exec
utive. Two bankers who were in the
party promptly offered Roosevelt and
Thomas any reasonable sum of money

to this to enable him to breathe.
There he stayed from 4:30 o'clock un

cally shoveling the crushed rock away.
When they got him out tie was none
the worse for his adventure.

Mrs. C. E. Burton, who recently cre
ated a sensation here a few days ago
by suing William Prall, a large farmer
here for $5,000 damages for alleged
persistence ir^his attentions to 'her, has
added to the furor of .the suit created,
by filing an original notice in another
suit for $5,000 damages against the
same man for slander. Both cases will
go over until the April term.

Grant Stambaugh had a fire that
made him hustle some. It was not in
his house, but his wagon. He has a
little cob stove in the wagon, used for
milk delivering, and while delivering
to a family residing upstairs, the stove
set fire to the side of the wagon and
on his return he found it in full blaze.
A pail of water from a nearby restaur
ant extinguished the blaze.

Will Cad well went over to Farragut
a few days ago to 'see his 160 acre farm
that he bought for $115 per acre, and
while there was offered $1,000 for his
bargain. Geo. Garrett recent
ly bought the Hutchinson 80 acre farm
north of Will Utterback's place, on the
Tabor-Hillsdale road, for $5,000, and
has just accepted an offer of $75 per
acre for it.
Sumner.
John Holm, who lives on the Martin
place, this side of Tripoli, delivered to
Jackson, of Illinois, recently, four
horses for which he received an even
$800. These animals were good ones,
as the price realized indicates, but they
were no better than hundreds of oth
ers in the neighborhood. The farmers
have given much care to the breeding
of horses during recent years and are
now reaping the benefit in high prices.
Mount Pleasant.
Ben Thompson of Mount Pleasant,
was arrested at Ottumwa on the charge
of shooting at Burlington flyer No. 6
just east of this city on January 5.
Thompson is a young man, whose par

insane hospital once and his parents
had him before the commissioners re

was done to the train beyond damag
ing the window in the coach.
Mason City.
The H. H. Tedford family had an
experience Friday night which they
will not care to repeat for many days,
and which is the most peculiar case
of asphyxiation on record. When one
of the male members of the family
came home that night he hung his fur
overcoat near the kitchen stove. That
article of furniture heated up consid
erably during the night and was red
hot toward morning. The fur coat
could not withstand the heat and com
menced to burn. The fumes from this
burning hair put the members of the
household in such a torpor that they
failed to wake until a late hour Satur
day, and were then all quite sick.

result. In their being met with bands
at the station plat forms, both of the
men had to travel under assumed

some doubts about the advisability of
returning to that state after the facts

mission to Literary Events Would
Mean Six Dollars Added Onto Yearly
Tuition— Meets Some Opposition
Plan Tried With Success in Many
Places.
Special to Times-Republican.
Grinnell, Jan. 30.—An effort Is being
made at the college here to have all of
tho students in the institution pay a
Hat rate by the semester entitling them
to admission to all oC the athletic and
literary events. The plan is more far
reaching In Its scope than that ever
proposed at any other Iowa college,
and while there is some opposition to
its adoption, it is believed that it will
eventually meet the approval of the
faculty and the student body alike and
finally be adopted and go Into effect
next fall. As proposed, the plan con
templates adding $6 onto the regular
yearly tuition fee ten be paid in two
eiual installments. This entitles the
student to admission to every event in
the college year from foot ball games
to debates.
The plan has been tried with marked
success at Morningside college in-Sloux
City, where it resulted in putting all
of the student activities on a sound
basis, greatly Increasing the attend
ance and the Interest. It has been
proposed at several other institutions
in the state, including the State Uni
versity of iowa. it was turned down
there on account of the fact that the
regents of the institution were opposed
to making the payment compulsory, so
as to increase the tuition. It Is argued
here that there are many students who
cannot afford to make the extra pay
ment, and that in compelling them to
do so the college is acting unfairly. In
asmuch as the adoption of the regula
tion would require all of the co-eds in
the Institution to pay their way to all
of the games and literary events, It is
meeting with the approval of a large
number of male students, who would
thereby be relieved from further ex
penditures in that direction.
The Iowa college base ball managers
will meet in Iowa City on February 9,
to arrange for the playing dates of the
Iowa college teams this spring. Our
delegates will be entertained at a din
ner by the board of control and at the
Grinnell-Iowa basket ball game, which
will be played that evening. It is not
known what action the college will
take with reference to their invitations
which have already been issued for a
similar meeting to be held in Grln
nell.

Catarrh, is not merely an inflammation of the tissues of the head and
throat, as the symptoms, of ringing noises in the ears, mucous dropping back
into the throat, continual hawking and spitting, etc., would seem to indi
cate it is a blood disease in which the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involved. Catarrh is due to the presence of an excess
of uric acid in the blood* The Uver, Kidneys and Bowels frequently be
come torpid and dull ia their action and instead of carrying off the refuse
and waste of the body, leave it to sour and form uric acid in the system.
This is taken up by the blood and through its circulation distributed to all
parts of the system. These impurities in the blood irritate and inflame
the different membranes and tissues of the body, and the contracting
of a cold will start the secretions and other disgusting and disagreeable
'symptoms of Catarrh. As the blood goes to all parts of the body the ca
tarrhal poison affects all parts of the system. The head has a tight, full
