FORMER SIXTH DISTRICT CON
GRESSMAN IN WASHINGTON IN
TERIVEW' 8AYS HE WOULD OP­
POSE CUMMINS
Washington, D. C., Sept. 26.—Major
John F. Lacey, former representative
from the Sixth district, would like to
meet Governor Cummins of Iowa in a
contest for the senatorial toga.
Major Lacey lis In Washington on
business and yesterday he gave out a
political Interview to "the Washington
Post to which he predicts that Sena
tor Allison will be re-elected despite
the hard fight that is being made
to place a younger man from Iowa In
the office. Regarding his own candi
dacy for senatorial honors, Major La
cey says he will not enter the race
as long as Senator Allison Is In the
field. The Washington Post also
quotes him as saying that he is not
thinking of coming back to congress.
Would Take on Cummins,
I wouldn't mind having a round or
two with Governor Cummins," said
Major Lacey. "But I think Senator Al
lison will win.
"It would not only be a state calam
ity to retire the senator, but it would
be a national calamity. Allison is ap
proaching his eightieth year, but he
Is one of the most remarkable men
of his years. There are occasionally
men who are strong men when they
become old physically, and Allison is
one of them. Like BismarK, Gladstone
and Clnclnnatus, he Is a giant, even
with the weight of more than three
score years and ten on his shoulders.
No one will dispute that he Is the rec
ognized head of the senate. Ask. any
one ask a politician In Texas or New
York, who Is the leade rof the senate?
He will tell you Allison. Ask a labor
er in the streets and he, too, will tell
you Allison ask a miner in far off
Alaska and he will eacho Allison. The
senator has practically recovered
from the illness whioh laid him up for
some weeks last winter and is stead
ily growing stronger. His cheeks are
beginning to glow with youth, and his
mind is as. vigorous as ever. I repeat
that it would be E calamity to retire
Senator Allison and I do not think the
people of the state will permit it.
Cannon Too Old.
"People of Iowa are no^ talking
much about national politics. Roose
velt is exceedingly strong through

"I recently made a trip to the coast
anl everywhere the president Is talk

seems to be a disposition among some
to believe that perhaps he may be In
duced to reconsider his decision not
to run, and those persons hesitate to
express a preference for any other
man.

IN TROUBLE
MRS. MARTHA MILLER FINED $50
FOR DISTURBING THE PEACE
WILL APPEAL CASE
LUDW1GS PROSECUTE
German Woman Living Next to Miller
Home on Center Avenue Claims she
Was Called a '.'Dirty Dutch Hog"
by the Defendant.
In polite society it la not consider
ed proper to orawl up on the kitchen
roof and call your neighbor an "old
Dutch hog."
This point in etiquette was decided
by Police Judge Klrbv this morning
when he fined Mrs. Martha Miller of
492 Center avenue $50 for disturbing
the peace, upon information filed by
Mrs. Augusta Ludwig, the next door
neighbor of the Millers.
Mrs. Miller, however, denied eynr
calling her neighbor a hog. "I never
called her an "old Dutch hog," sh«*
said. "I called her an 'old Dutch fool,'
and she certainly is."
Mrs. Miller declared that whenever
the grocer would come to the house
to take her order, her neighbor, Mrs.
Ludwig, would get out in the yard
and yell: "Mens come to the Miller's
house. No mens come to my house."
"Nix Come Arous" Ruled Out.
On another occasion Mrs. Miller
said her neighbor blew, her nose in her
face. That is. It was Mrs. Ludwlg's
nose and Mrs. Miller's face. Another
time she stuck a cat'B tall1'In Mrs. Mil
ler's face, the witness alleged. Mrs.
Ludwig then went through the back
yard waving a bunch of roses in her
hand and yelling: "Nix come arous in
a Dutchman's house."
Attorney Ramsell insisted that this
evidence bie stricken out as being ir
relevant. immaterial and having no
direct bearing on the case at issue in
which Mrs. Miller was charged with
disturbing the peace.
Herman Ludwig, wife of the com
plainant, went on the stand.
"This Miller woman she called my
old woman 'Dutch hag' or 'Dutch
hog.' What she mean about this,
huh
"Did she say this In a loud voice?"
asked Attorney Ramsell.
"Why, she. was always noisy. She
was never quiet," averred the wit
ness.
Mrs. Ludwig was more emphatic.
"We have a high fence in the back
yard," she said, "and when this wo
man couldn't see me over the fence,
she would climb on the kitchen roof
and call me names. Once she said,
.'Here she is, girls. Here is that old
Dutch hag.'"
Neighbors Called In.
Walter Farrington, a neighbor, tes
tified that on one occasion he saw
MJss Emma Miller, a sister-in-law of
the defendant, running after Mrs. Lud
wig with a club.
Anna Farrington, his sister, heard
Mrs. Miller call Mrs. Ludwig a "hog."
Dan Gibbons, who lives across tho
street from the quarreling neighbors,
heard some making a noise like a
"frog In a pond," but he was unable
to say whether it was the defendant
or the complainant.
After hearing the evidence Judge
Klrby made the fine $50 or a fifteen
days' jail sentence for Mrs. Miller.
The defendant gave notice of appeal
and gave an appeal bond of $100.
Another case is pending In which
Mrs. Miller is prosecuting Myrtle Far
rington, another neighbor, on the
charge of assaulting Edith Miller, a
daughter of the complainant.

FORT MADISON IN REFORM.
Mulct Law is Enforced Through Agree
ment—Ministers of City Want
Puritlan Form.
Fort Madison, Sept. 26.—Fort Madi
son has experienced an awakening
during the past few days of the reform
movement which has recently swept
over several Iowa cities. The first
was the saloon reform moveinent
which struck Dubuque, Davenport and
Burlington. The Ministerial associa
tion took up the cudgel, and, assisted
by state officers of the Iowa Anti-Sa
loon league, started the ball rolling.
The ministers asked for a meeting with
representative saloon men„and the re
quest met with such an agreeable res
ponse that it surprised the ministers.
A meeting was had and the mulct
question was discussed in all its
phases.
An agreement was soon reached and
signed by both parties, and now there
is peace between saloon and church.
The saloon screens are down and the
lid is down tight on Sunday, this be
ing the only change from the old order
of things.
Ministers Not Content.
The ministers however, were not
content with this little reform, and on
last riunday night, while the "Tempest
and Sunshine" company was filing an
engagement at the opera house, dls
patched a constable with warrants for
the arrest of the ticket seller and four
of the theatrical company, one of the
four being Miss Marie Do Bean, a for-
mer Burlington girl who play's the
part of "Tempest" very acceptably.The
play, however, was not distrubed, the
ofHcer serving the papers after the
performance closed. The four mem
bers of the company gave bond for
their appearance the next day and
were released. They and the opera
house manager were charged with a
breach of the Sabbath.
Defendants Win.
The case came up in Justice D. F\
Alley's court Tuesday afternoon, the
defendants asking for a jury. One wit-1

Major Montgomery Meigs Figures Out
Probable Time Card for Boat Car

Keokuk, Sept. 26.—Major Meigs of
the engineer corps and In charge of
the naval parade for President's Day,
was consulted as to the probable
time the President's boat would pass
the different landings, supposing the
parade to start and the President to
leave Keokuk at 11 a. m. The majov
produced a time table of what a slow
boat can do, in which the arrival at
each town below Keokuk has been
figured out. Of courso, this is only
problematical, but It Is very clrs" t'l
correct, as Maor Melgs Is up-to-date
in his postings on the river and the
speeds attained by the various kinds
of boats. The time table is cerserv
