F. M. Cunningham, for the purpose of
bringing suit against the county under his
tnx ferret contract with tho Board of Su
pervlsnrs, has filed an Itemized statement
showing the money recovered Into the
county treasury through his efforts In dis
covering property which had been omlttea
from assessment. Tho statement shows
for tho years 1806 to 1900, Inclusive, 114,
111.88 has been paid Into the county treas
ury by owners of property which had es
caped assessment. Under his contract Cun
ningham claims remuneration In the sum
of $7,065,04, being equal to BO per cent of
tho amount so far paid In. Itemized for
the different years the amounts recovered
Into the county treasury are: For the year
1836, J2.387.67; 1897, $2,523.06; 1898, $2,217.75;
1899, $3,321.38; 1900, $3,630.02.
Now that it has beon determined that
Cunningham Is to bring suit against tho
county, when all the complicated questions
Involved are to bo rained and adjudicated,
It Is not probable that Frank Shlnn will
appeal from Judge Wheeler's ruling In the
suit brought by him to restrain the super
visors and other county officers from pay
Ing Cunningham under the 50 per cent con
tract. As the suit to bo brought by Cun
ningham Is to bo taken to tho supremo
court Mr. Shlnn Is of the opinion that It
would not be necessary for him to take an
appeal now.

and threo quarters and among other
things said: "Let us understand once for
all that all avenues through which truth
nnd beauty, light and love enter the soul
of man are divine highways. Education is
a sacred function. Education Is the Im
parting of truth or the training of the.
mind to grasp the truth. Truth Is an
other name for God. To teach the truth Is
to teach God. Truth Is truth, whether It
be about a star or a little dewdrop or a
baptismal font." Mr. Dixon Is a fast
talker and holds his audience steadfast.

DES MOINES, June 23. (Special.)
Never before In tho history of Iowa has
the banking business been, so profitable
and so popular as at tho present time, The
recent meeting of the Iowa- Hankers' asso
ciation at Cedar Rapids was well attended
and the reports made by the chairmen of'
the various groups Indicated that the com
mercial and financial conditions In Iowa
are In a healthy state and that there Is
tho greatest development of banking oper
ations In consequence. J. E. Wbolan, state
bank examiner, who has been acting deputy
auditor of state for some time, has lately
gone out over his district making exam
inations of the state and savings banks.
His district comprises the southwestern
portion of the state. Ho has a list of six
teen new banks since the first of tho year
either organized or In process of organiza
tion. Not a week passes without several
applications for charters for new banks,
"Tho banking business was never better
in Iowa," said Mr. Whelan. "The state
and savings banks are all doing business
and making money. Examination of the
books shows that the depositors aro chiefly
farmers. They have learned the lesson of
economy In the hard times and now In
flush times they aro laying by their earn
ings. The only trouble with tho banking
business is that there Is not that demand
for money which enables them to charge
good rates for accommodations. But de
spite this they are prosperous. For In
stance, I examined two banks recently in
the western part of tho state, where one of
them had paid dividends amounting to 15
per cent last year and had put 4 per cent
in the reserve, making a total of 19 per
cent profits, and the other had paid 10 per
cent dividends on stock and had passed 6
per cent to the reserve fund. These are
samples of what the bank books show all
over the state. Thero Is hardly a week
that I am not asked If I know of a good
location for a bank. Thero are men with'
money ready to go Into business wherever
the openings appear. There has never been
such expansion in business as we are hav
ing this year."
Tho reports show that In tho state and
savings hanks of Iowa there Is on deposit
$112,465,000, or an Increase of over $11,
000,000 in deposits within five months.
Tho national banks make reports showing
equal prosperity.
Funeral of fi. Vim ilnltl.
Tho funeral of' Gerret Van Glnkel was
held hero this afternoon, the body hav
ing been brought from Dallas, Tex., for
burial. Tho body lay In state In the ro
tunda of the Observatory building, which
ho owned, and was viewed by thousands
of his old friends. Tho pallbearers at tho
funeral were his old associates In business
In Des Moines. Quite a party of prominent
business men came froitiL Dallas, Tex., to
attend tho funeral. It appears that tho
manner of his death In Dallas will not be
known, as he was all alone when struck
by a street car. It Is supposed he had
sat down on the track and went to sleep,
but this cannot be known. He was ar
ranging a farewell to his Dallas friends,
for ho had sold all hi Interests thero and
was about to return to Iowa. No attempt
has yet been made to ascertain his wealth
or to look after his vast Interests, but It
Is known that he held properties worth
near to $1,000,000.
Ilea MoIiicn Vncntlon .School.
The success of the vacation school Idea
In Des Moines Is phenomenal. Last week
was the first wcok of theso summer
schools for poor children under 14 years
of ago ond over 200 enrolled at the Lin
coln building, whero this work Is being car
ried on. Sufficient money was raised to pay
three special teachers for the vacation
school, but most of tho work Is done gra
tuitously and In tho Interest of the poor
children In the lower part of the city, who
would otherwise be running tho streets If
not in school. Tho children aro given spe
cial Instruction and especially manual
training and things which will be useful to
them.
IlPKlmenlnl Reunion.
The reunion of the Thirty-second Iowa In
fantry regiment held at Iowa Falls last
week was one of the most successful re
unions of tho survivors of that regiment
ever held. A feature of the reunion was
the presence of ex-Senator Allen of Ne
braska, who formerly lived In Hardin
county, Where the reunion was held, and
who Is well known to many of the mem
bers. Colonel John Scott of this city was
elected president of tho association, and
John Reed secretary. The next reunion
will be held In Des Moines.

(iriiuiiRT for Governor,
Some of the democratic newspapers of
southwestern Iowa are starting a boom for
Lew Genung of Mills county for tho demo
cratic nomination for governor In August.
Genung is an old soldier and tho demo
crats bellove that many of the old soldiers,
In tho present state of affairs In Iowa, can
be got to vote for an old soldier candldato
for governor. Inasmuch as It Is certain that
the republicans will not nominate a sol
dler. Other posslblo nominees ore: T. .1.

the districts oppose annexation.

Warn the Woman.
A few days ago there was committed
near Inlon, la., the murder of Will Burgh
duff by Mel demons, the affray resulting
from trouble over Mrs. demons. The mur
derer has been sent to Jail and the woman
who caused the trouble has been living with
a brother-in-law In tho neighborhood. Tho
farmerr. of tho vicinity, with somo business
men of Union, held a meeting at Benson's
Mill and decided that Mrs. demons would
have to leave the county, as her presence
thero was objectionable. A committee con
sisting of Dr. Brlggs and George Houser
was appointed to make known the decision
of the people and the committee notified
the woman. She protested and said she
had no means whatever and could not go
away. The committee Insisted sho should
