That defendant cursed her and stw k her with his list, knocking her down, and then kicked her twice or three times, bruising her Bide,. and then left her lying on the lloor of tho store. Tho witness was corroborated In part, by Linda Alford and LIna Mur phy, who were on, the opposite sldo of tho street, and hearing the row, looked over and saw Stull kick the prostrato woman. Dr. Cook was called for the state and ave tho facta about being called to attend Mrs. Monroo at her home, and treated tho bruises on her face, but niado no ex amination of her body.

ABOUT THAT OFFICE A special from Lincoln under date of .October, says that in making an appeal to the voters of the First dis trict ueiore tne primaries Will Hay ward gave out the Impression that he never held an appointive ornro. Today he stated that ho meant to ninke plain the statement that he had never held an appointive office "lu Washington." lie stated that he was appointed prlvato secretary to his father, the late M. L. Hayward, about the middle of March, the year of Hayward's elec tion to the senate, and that when he received a warrant for his services it covered the period up to the follow ing fifth of December. Hayward said that he has worked as private secre tary In Nebraska City only, never having gone to Washington. He as serted that his father made only a short visit to Washington Immediate ly after his election, and that on his return, or shortly after, he "vaa taken g to lee the Lights n Your J Credit Is Oood n A SPECULATION!

Hayward states that he refused to go to Washington while his father was 111, and that a consultation was held regarding the advisability of sending someone to Washington to look after the Hayward interests, the expecta tion being,that M. L. Hayward would recover from the stroke of apoplexy that eventually ended in his death. Hayward acknowledges his appoint ment and says that when he got the warrant he cashed it and kept the money. This statement from Hay ward is chiefly of interest because of the Impression that many people got from his first statement that he in tended to say he never held an ap pointive position. The warrant was for about $1,000. I!iK ltai Rftln in aItaii( fi.
