PULPIT CALLED ON TO AID THE EFFORT
Idea, Which la Fathered ny Stete
Teachers' Association, la to Get
the School aad Poblle Into
Closer Toaoh.
Steps to carry Into effect the movement
for an educational campaign throughout
the state of Iowa started at the last an
tiual meatlnc of the Iowa State Teachers'
association In Dps Moines are being- taken.
At a meeting; of the association a number
of prominent educators throughout the
state suggested such a movement and a
committee of which Prof. F. B. Palmer,
superintendent of the Jefferson schools U
president, was appointed to carry It out.
County Superintendent McManus yesterday
received the following circular letter from
Superintendent Palmer, which In a great
measure explains Itself.
Tou are asked to take charge of this
movement In and for your county, using
your own judgment In regard to the best
methods of securing the Interest and co
operation of both teachers and patrons In
the meetings growing out of this move
ment. We would suggeet that on Sunday. No
vember 16, the ministers Of the several
churches of your county preach a sermon
on some toplo connected -with the work of
education. In this way not only will the
meetings of November SO be etpphaslied,
but muny people will be reached who will
not attend other meetings. It Is also
suggested that If possible the Issue of the
public press for the week of November 20
fce used to bring before the people the needs
and demands of the publlo schools.
Tou are urged to accept this work and
we hope you wilt be able to arouse a new
Interest In the work of the publlo schools
In your county. h people cannot be too
much concerned about the welfare of the
children of Iowa and about the work that
their teachers are doing. Try In some way
to Interest every director, not neglecting
both parents and teachers.
In compliance with the request contained
In the letter County Superintendent Mo
Manua contemplates arranging for a num
ber of meetings In the several school dis
tricts throughout the county on the date
named, at which matters of general inter
est to the patrons, pupils and teachers of
the schools will be discussed. Prof. Mo
Minus will a'.so confer with the several
ministers of the city and endeavor to have
them preach on November 15 on some edu
national topic, such as "The Value of an
I Education From a Monetary and Soolologl
i tal Standpoint" or such other theme a the
nlnlster himself may suggest.
One of the principal Idea of having these
heetlngs throughout the state as suggested
by the State Teachers' association Is to
bring the patrons of the schools, especially
those In the rural districts. In closer touch
' with the schools and the teachers. An
other object In view la to secure more
commensurate compensation for the teach'
era In the rural districts.

In this movement, la one of the leading
educators of Iowa and a professor in

Susan A. Cuppy which, owing to the prom
inence of the parties concerned, has at
tracted more than ordinary Interest In the

Cuppy la to pay for the maintenance of her
husband for the past year and all expenses
of the suit. Including the fees of her hus
band's attorneys. In consideration for this
Cuppy on his part dismissed the action to
set aside a certain deed by which he con
veyed all of hla property to his wife. The
main point, however, at Issue was over the

merely a flank movement to force the ap
pointment of a guardian other than Mrs.
Cuppy.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Sept. M.-(Bpeolal) The
State ballot commission, consisting of the
attorney genersl, auditor of state and sec
retary of state, convened ngaln this morn
ing for the purpose of taking up the sen
sational contest case from the Bremer-Butler
senatorial district. The nomination pa
pers of W. N. Larkin, who had been regu
larly nominated, were on file, and also a
protest from E. W. Soesby, the rival candi
date, against permitting Larkln'a nama on
the ballot. Both Soesby and Larkin were
present. Soesby was also accompanied by
Senator Craig, the present senator from the
district, and they were prepared to make an
argument to show that the nomination of
Larkin waa fraudulent and not entitled to
recognition. Mr. Larkin stated that he had
not received the notice In time to get his
evidence ready, and the case waa put eff
until Friday next. Mr. Larkin will pro
duce the original ballots which were cast,
and show that they actually were cast for
Larkin, while Soesby has the sworn affida
vits of the majority of the delegates that
not one of them voted for Larkin.
County Auditors May Assess.
A hint has been given the county auditors
In those counties where there has been
some controversy over the assessment of
certain telegraph lines along the Burling
ton railroad, that they are In duty bound to
place on the assessment books the assess
ment of the telegraph line. The line la
owned by the Burlington railroad, but
leased to the telegraph company. When
the etate executive council came to this
question, the property was assessed to the
telegraph company, as It waa found that
the contract between the railroad company
and the telegraph company made the lat
ter liable for the taxes. Then the telegraph
company enjoined the state officials from
giving official notice to the county auditors
of the amount of the assessment. It Is
now given out that despite this, some of
the county officers, acting under their au
thority, will place on the assessment books
the assessment aa it was made or as It was
last year, and proceed to collect. The
countiea affected are: Adair, Adams, Cass,
Clarke, Decatur, Des Moines, Dubuque,
Fremont, Henry, Jefferson, Lucas, Marion,
Mills, Monroe, Montgomery, Page, Polk,
Pottawattamie, Ringgold, Taylor, Union,
Wapello, Warren and Wayne. The amount
. of the assessment in dispute Is $57,000.

off. The people mads loud complaint and
the company has agreed to plaoe back the
trains in a few weeka The company
ehowed that It had been operating at a 1ot
for aeveral years.

avenue alao la believed to have been the
work of firebugs. When the rumor of fire
bugs spread through the eaatern section of
Harlem, where all the fires were discovered,
terror prevailed among the flat dwellers.
Scores of policemen In cltlxena drees are
now at work in the district, but no trace
of the miscreants has yet been secured.
In some cases It waa found that old
mattresses had been dragged Into the base
ment of a building, soaked with kerosene
and flred. Robbery la the only possible
explanation.
Fire early today In a flve-story building at
2S7 Fifth avenue caused a panic among
a dosen persons who were asleep there.
The blaxe started on the second floor and
spread upward so quickly that the
Inmates fled to the roof, from where
they were able to reach the roof of
the Reform club next door. All escaped
Injury In this way, although much
valuable property wns left behind.
Several artists had quarters In the build
ing and quite a number of valuable paint
ings undoubtedly were lost. Several
canvases were carried out by their owners,
who left their clothing behind. .
THREE BROTHERS ARE TO DIE
Stepmother Makes Last I'nsnccessfnl
Appeal to Save Their
lives.
ALBANY, N. Y., Sept 28.-Mrs. Van
Wormer, step-mother of the three brothers
who are to be executed at Clinton on
Thursday, called at the executive chambers
today to make a final appeal In behalf of
her step-sons.
Governor Odell declined to see her, on
the ground that he had fully considered
the case and that an Interview would be
only useless pain to both. Mrs. Van Wormer
accepted his decision aa final and will re
turn to Klnderhook this afternoon.
Warden Oeorge Dye of the Clinton prison,
who has the execution in personal charge,
will not say, even If he has decided, In
what order the brothers are to die, but he
declares that there will be one set of wit
nesses, and the work will be done with all
possible expedition. The witnesses have
been instructed to meet at the warden's
office at 11:15 a, m. The execution is to
take place at or about noon, and probably
will not oonaume more than twenty minutes.
Much thought has been given to seeking
means of separating the three, so that
none of them would know when either of
his brothers wss taken to the chair, or
whether himself waa first to go, but the
arrangements of the prison and the location
of the death house makes thla Impossible,
to conduct the condemned men through
any corridor of the main prison would un
doubtedly throw the other prisoners Into
an uproar.
It has beon determined, therefore, to
place the three in the successive cells on
one side of the corridor In the death house
tiAarAKt the door of the execution room
and remove them In that order to their
death.
The condemned prisoners bear well the
ordeal of suspense.
SPANISH WAR VETERANS MEET
They Are Clad In Bine and Gray,
Emblematic of North
and South.
NEW HAVEN, Conn., Sept. 28.-Clad In
uniforms of blue and gray, emblematic of
the reunion as comrades of men formerly
separated by sectional strife, 1,000 soldiers
of the Spanish-American war marched In
parade today as a preliminary to the open
ing of the fourth annual assembly of the
National Army and Navy Spanish War
veterans.
They were reviewed by veterans of the
Grand Army of the Republic, state and
city officials and by Prealdent Hadley of
Yale university. The first assemblage of the
day aside from the many Informal gather,
Ings, was that of the council of ad.
ministration which met at the New Haven
house.
Reports of work accomplished during ths
year were ftumttted to the council and were
referred to the convention for acceptance.
As regards finances, the association was
declared to be In good condition with no
debts and with a considerable balance In
hand. The amount expended for relief
work by the various commands and corps
during the year was nearly 1100, 0Q0.
In the organisation of new commanda
some trouble haa been experienced by
reasons of the fact that there has been an
effort to amalgamate the Spanish War
veterans wdth the Spanish-American War
veterans and other like organisations. A
good many have desired to hold out from
Joining ths Spanish War veterans until
this consolidation was perfected.
All hindrance to consolidation haa now
been removed It la expected by the end of
October all details, including the election of
offloers and the adoption of rules and
rituals will have been arranged.
