Se.es on Accident Poller.
In the district court yesterday before
Judge Wheeler and a jury was begun the
trial of the suit of Mrs. Jennie L. Mathls
ngalnst the Aetna Insurance company of
Hartford, Conn. Mrs. Mathls sues as
administratrix of the estate of her hus.
band, who at the time of his death held
a 2,000 accident Insurance policy In the de.
fendant company. The question at issue
la of More than usual Interest.
Mathls, who was an engineer on tho
Union Pacific, was found in his room at
a Grand Island hotel suffering from a
stroke of paralysis. He lingered tor sev
eral days, but died without regaining con
sciousness, lis had a bad bruise on his
head and examination showed that a blood
vessel of his brain had broken.
Mathls' Insurance policy only covered In
juries or death resulting from accident.
Suit was brought on the theory that Mathls'
death was the result of an accidental fall
aa indicated by the contusion on his head,
and that the full caused the bursting of
the blood vessel and resultant paralysis.
The insurance company resisted payment,
contending that the stroke of paralysis
preceded and brought about the full pro
ducing the bruise on the head, or, In other
words, that Mathls' death was due to
natural causes and not to accident,
similar suit brought by the adminis
trator of the estate of the late W. E.
Haverstoclc of this city against the Na
tional Masonic Accident association of Des
Moines resulted in a verdict for the full
amount of the policy sued on. Haver
stock was found suffering from paralysis
And unconscious in his bath. He lingered
for a considerable time but never fully re
gained consciousness. In his case it was
contended that the paralysis was the re
sult of the fall, while the insurance com
pany took the stand that the fall was
due to the stroke of paralysis.

WATER HOt'SB ADDRESSES STTDENTB
Points Oat to Them the Value ef nn
Education.
Principal A. H. Waterhouse of the Omaha
High school addressed the students of the
Council Bluffs High school In assembly yes
terday morning. Ha was listened to with
close sttentlon and at the close of his talk
was assured that he would be a welcome
visitor at the school again.
In his introductory remarks Principal
Waterhouse expressed himself as very de
sirous of a closer acquaintance between
the high schools of this city and Omaha,
suggesting that two or three athletic con
tests and two or three debating or literary
contests between the two schools each
year would be of distinctive value to
both, not only from ths standpoint of
physical and Intellectual development but
also financially.
Turning to the direct subject of his ad
dress Mr. Waterhouse demonstrated the
great necessity for young people of school
age to prepare themselves for broader
living than can possibly come to the man
who Is limited In Ms apprenticeship. He
showed tho tendency, In many places, for
students to desire some short cut to earn
ing money, calllnar attention to the fact
thut many students drop from the high
school before the course Is complete snd
accept minor position -In which they are
almost certain to remain, whereas, if they
.were to prepare themselves more thor
oughly for the work of life they could not
be kept In the lower places, but In a short
time they would outgrow them and their
employers would be obliged to either raise
their salaries or give them up to some
other firm.
He called attention to the fact that many
business men have been known to advise
students against going to college while
they themselves have Insisted upon their
own sons and daughters having a thorough
course of college training. This, he said,
would be accounted for In part by ths de
sirs of these men to have oertaln men well
fitted to hold the small places In life's ac
tivity that their own sons and those In
whom they were thoroughly Interested
might be prepared for the larger places.
Throughout his Interesting and Instruc
tive talk was the ring of Inspiration to
those who expected to enter the higher
fields of learning. Mr. Waterhouse showed
ths Importance of the right choice of
course In the school, ths proper one being
that which will enable the student, If he
finds himself fitted for It, to taks a col
lege course.
WHOLESALE GROCERY MAT MOVE
Report Stewart Brothers Are Gelngr to
Omaha.
It was stated yesterday on apparently
good authority that the Stewart Bros,
company contemplated moving to Omaha
and erecting a warehouse there. The Stew
art Bros, company Is one of the oldest
wholesale grocery houses In this section of
ths country.
Since Mr. Cotton became associated In
tl. management of the firm with John T.
Stewart It has been suggested st more or
less frequent Intervals that the firm might
remove across the river. The firm's build
ing on Pesrl and Main streets has for sev
eral ysars been entirely Inadequate for Its
business. When the Great Western en
tered the city It was stated that ths firm
contemplated building a largo warehouse
on Main street near that railroad's track
age, hut as nothing has been done In this
direction It Is believed ths Arm has for
some time past contemplated moving across
the river.
Mr. Stewart could not be seen last night
to verify or deny the report.

BAD BREAK IX THB WATER MAIlf
Main Bapply Pipe on Broadway Bursts
Yesterday Afternoon.
A bad break In the water main at Twenty-eighth
street snd Broadway yesterday
afternoon caused much damage and shut
off the water supply of Eighth street for
several hours until the pipe could be re
placed. The waterworks company as soon
ss possible had a huge force of men at
work repairing the break and by midnight
was able to turn the water on again.
The break occurred In the twenty-four-inch
main, which was laid when the water
works systsm was first Installed In the city
twenty years ago. Until the company suc
ceeded In turning the water off below
Eighth street It poured forth from the
break like a veritable geyser.
The cause for the break hsd not been as
certained last night, but It Is thought poe- I
slbls that It may hare been oaused by
electrolysis, as the main Ilea directly be
tween the power houses of the motor com
pany. Although on account of the break
ths pressure was somewhat weak, there
was a full supply of water In ths down
town district.

TWO GOOD PLACES TO FILL
Ettds of Two Ststs Im'.Huti nt Ars to B
HanJtd in Short Tims.
IOWA COMMISSION GOING TO SHtlOH
Kffert Will Be Made to Convince Na
tional Commission Iowa Regi
ments Participated In the
Engngrrnsent.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, May lJ.-(Speclal.) The
State Board of Control Is looking for otiit
sbls persons to fill two Important places
In the service of the state headship of the
state Institutions at Davenport and El
dora. At Davenport, where Prof. Ones
had been head of the State Orphans' home
for ten years, It will be necessary to find
someone who will be at once an educator
and a manager of a school having BOO
children. The position at Eldora, where
Superintendent Miles resigned after twenty-five
years' service. Is one which ths
board will find soma difficulty In filling.
It Is now planned by the state to make
of this Institution a real Industrial school
for the boys who are sent there. An Im
mense workshop has been built and is now
being fitted out with the beet of ma
chinery and material, so that Industrial
work can be taken up more extensively
than ever before. A model printing of
fice Is to be established and a shop for
all manner of work In wood and metal.
The state has also recently constructed
there a new school building which Is a
model of Its kind. The new superintendent
will take charge July 1. .
Commission to Oo to Shlloh.
It was decided today that the members
of the Iowa commission on the Shlloh
monuments will accompany Governor
Cummins to the battlefield next week
where they will all meet the national
commission on monuments and have
hearing on the claims of the two Iowa
regiments whose history Is In dispute. The
governor has prepared the case and will
produce a vast amount of evidence to
show that the Fifteenth and Slxtocnth
Iowa regiments really participated in the
battle where they lost one-third of their
numbers nnd that they are entitled to
have regimental monuments placed on the
battle line. There has been a dispute
about this owing to the fact that these
were at that time Irregular regiments and
not brigaded, and the reports at Wash
ington do not give the correct history.
The governor and party will leave for
Tennessee on the evening after the re
publican stats convention.
Failed to Let Contract.
The board of trustees of the State col
lege at their meeting yesterday declined to
let the contract for the new horticultural
building on the State college campus at
Ames. Two bids were received, both being
about 86,000, and they were considered too
high. The plans will be modified and bids
asked for again. The board re-elected 3.
B. Hungerford of Carroll president and
Prof, E. W. Stanton secretary. The new
members of the board were all present
except Ellison Orr of the Fourth district.
The new members present were Messrs.
Allyn. Zmunt and Letts, The board fixed
the salary of Prof. Kennedy, after his re
turn from a European trip, at $3,600 a year
for three years.
Lambert Lleeitennnt Colonel.
Major E. E. Lambert of Newton was
unanimously elected lieutenant colonel of
the Fifty-fourth regiment at the election
held this week. As soon as he Is commis
sioned the election for his successor will
take place, and at the same time an elec
tion for lieutenant colonel of the Fifty
sixth to fill the place to which Major HUe
of Boone was elected on his declination.
The returns from the Fifty-sixth show
that Captain Chantland of Fort Dodge had
a good lead for major of the regiment
The articles of Incorporation of the Du
buque Boat and Boiler works vvere filed
with the secretary of state; capital, 125,000;
John Kllleen, president) J. J. Scbreiner,
secretary.
Colore Girl Leads.
A colored girl from Des Moines, a girl
without a trace of white In her features
and hair curled tightly, leads the class In
shorthand at the State Industrial school at
Mltchellvllle. There are about fifteen In
the class of shorthand and typewriting.
The members of the state board visited ths
school and report that the class Is making
great progreus and the students show apti
tude for ths work, but ths one who Is st
the head of the class Is a colored girl from
Des Moines. Shorthand and typewriting
are taught at the school to those who de
sire It.

elected none of the officers. A. Ia Vrtek of
Des Moines was re-elected president and
llarry Strlef of Sioux City secretary. The
selection of L. M. Jaeger of Burlington as
delegate to the national federation marked
the trend of the feeling In the federation
aa against socialism. A resolution was
passed asking the national federation to
send a national organiser to Iowa and to
maintain him here. An efi'ort was made to
secure the passage of a resolution condemn
ing the last general assembly for failure
to pass the child labor law, but this was
voted down. The federation Indorsed the
eight-hour bill before congress.
Orders fen the O. A, R.
Colonel L. B. Raymond, department com
mander of the Grand Army of the Republic
has Issued his general orders relating to
the encampment to be held at Maaon City
commencing June 7. The railroads will give
low rates for the round trip. The orders
call especial attention, to the fact that
owing to the age of the veterans the parade
route haa been arranged only three-quarters
of a mile long and entirely on paved streets
and therefore all the soldiers can travel
the distance. There will be four candidates
before the encampment for department
commander R. T. St. John, J. A. Bpealman,
P. A. Smith and J. H. Hamilton, with the
chances favoring the first named.
Shortage In Aeeennts.
The city officials today made acknowledg
ment of a shortage in the accounts of Fred
H. Sales, who recently committed suicide,
but It is not known how much the shortage
will amount to. It Is supposed he was short
about $1,000. Hs was assistant city clerk.
He died from a morphine dose and an ef
fort was made to show that his doath was
accidental.
Mines Were Rich.
James C. Savory, builder of the Savery
hotel, and who was until a few years ago
pi eminent In Des Moines business affairs,
has recently leased his gold mines, In Mon
tana to a syndicate and Is now engaged In
developing a tract of 5,000 acres of graslng
and farming lands he lias acquired, and all
of which he hus but recently fenced. Mr.
Savery Is In Des Moines on a combined bust
noss and pleasure trip and to friends here
has stated that the ore token from his
mines up to tho time be leased them yielded
over $8,000,000 In gold.
