All the meetings of the Southwestern Iowa
Tei.chers association yesto.'day were well at-
ended. Every train that arrived In the
morning brought In a company that helped
well the general crowd of blushing fcmlnln-
ty. The morning session was held at the
Uloomer school building. The question of
uodcrn methods In geography was up for
lonslderatlon. 0. J. Laylandcr of Cedar
'alls was down on the program for a Tiaper ,
but he was unable to be present. Ills paper
was read by Superintendent Sawyer of thU
city. It was discussed by Iva Beck of Shen-
nndoah , II. A. Klnncy of Woodbine and
others.
The subject of Instruction In English was
reatcd In an exceptionally Interesting man
ncr by Bertha M. Bangs of Carroll , with
reference to the graded school work , anil
Mrs. Mornn Moore of Council Bluffs In the
High ( .cliool. A discussion followed , In
which Miss Edith Brooks of Tabor , Miss
Ellen Hellman of Missouri Valley and other :
took part. Superintendent II. E. Kratz o :
Sioux City , who was to have read a papei
upon the subject of "Child Study , " was de
talneJ at home by sickness , but his pape :
was read by Superintendent Sheldon.
A business session was held , at which thi
following olllcers were choi3n : President , II
W. Sawyer of Council Blurts ; vice president
C. I. Crow of Woodbine ; secretary , A. E
Parsons of Creston ; treasurer , J. C. King o
Hamburg. A resolution was unanimous ! ;
adopted requesting the High School cadets t
give an exhibition drill at 9 o'clock In fron
of the Presbyterian church.
President King of Cornell college took oc
caslon during the meeting to express him
self in high terms of the success of the loca
committees In looking after the entertain
ment and general welfare of the visitors. Hi
said ho had never been at a gathering o
Instructors where there seemed to be a feel
Ing of so much cordiality among all con
corned.
The center of attraction for all classes o ,
delegates In the afternoon seemed to be th
Blooir.cr school building , where the subject
under discussion were popularly suppose
to be only such as were of especial Interes
to school directors. E. B. Fonda of thi
Council Bluffs Board of Education presided
The first subject for consideration was schoc
holidays. A paper was read on the subjec
by Hon. C. W. Neal of Stuart , who favore
the Idea of the observance of at least all c
the legal holidays , and was very much op
posed to deducting the days from the teacli
ers' salaries. His remarks seemed to pleas
the teachers present so well that the subsi
qucnt discussion was lost sight of , nnd a so :
of general experience meeting was ht.li .
with a frce-Cor-all discussion.
"Free Text Books for the Public School' '
was the subject that brought out a ver ;
warm and Interesting discussion , following
paper on the question read by Hon. W. ! > '
Beach of Carroll , A spirited discussion fo
lowed the remarks of Hon. C. W. Ncal
Stuart , who did not seem to bo commute' '
to either sldo of the question , but contente
himself with pointing out what he consld
ered to bj grave objections to the system
The gravest of these -was the pauper
tendencies that should In the very nature of
the case and of mankind follow the universal
adoption of the custom. Dr. M. I ) . Snyder's
objections were based on the grounds of In-
ectlon , and ho , thought free * text books could
10 the means of disseminating litany of the
iontaglous diseases. Superintendent Crafts of
Sioux City answered his objections In a
iplrlted manner , and suggested that It was
he duty of the physicians to discover the
causes of Infection and destroy them. Prof ,
illller of Lincoln , Neb. , editor of the Edu
cational Journal , ridiculed the Infectious dis
ease * Idea and urged thet teachera to use all
icnorablo methods to secure the adoption
of the law at the next meeting of the legls-
aturc. He suggested that there should be
10 option about It , but the law should bj
Iko the Nebraska statute , which declares
liat all school districts must buy books for
.he district , and permitted those who chose
'rom sentiment or personal pride to buy
Docks to get them at exact cost. A vote of
: ho house showed an almost unanimous senti
ment In favor of public ownership of books.
After a lengthy discussion as to whether
there was a , tendency In the public bchools
to advance pupils beyond their capacity
which developed the fact that there was not
the session closed.
The programs at the First Presbyterian
Baptist and Congregational churches were
almost equally Interesting. At the Presby
terian there wcro papers by A. E. Parsons
of Creston , Cora I. Smith of Harlan , Lydla
. E. Turner of Audubon. Hattle E. Peckham
of Vllllsca and Etta M. Hunter of Crcston.
At the Baptist church Superintendent W. C
Moycr of Atlantic , County Superintendent O
n. Patrick of Glenwood , A. Farnaworth ol
Defiance. County Superintendent A. J. Bur
ton of Council Bluffs , Emma Funk of Red
Oak and ex-Superintendent M. L. Daken ol

Congregational there were papers and dis
cussions by I. S. Condlt of Red Oak , A. W
Merrill of Stuart , F. A. Lacey of Shenandoah
doah and E. D. Y. Culbertson of Jefferson.
In the evening the Presbyterian church WQI
crowded to the limit with teachers ani [
others to hear the address on "Heating ant
Ventilation" by Superintendent A. P. Marbli
of Omaha. It was a thoroughly practlca
presentation of a subject that has recelvec
tco llttlo attention from Instructors , but 1
coming to be regarded as an Important 1ng
In connection "woth educational work.

The taking of evidence In the case of the
United States against A. A. Edglngton was
begun yesterday morning and lasted all day
In Judge Woolson's court.
When W. H. Coon , the Avoca pension
agent , was put upon the stand , the defeml-
nnt's attorney oojectcd to the introduction of
any evidence , on the ground that no crime
was charged In the Indictment. This objec
tion was overruled by the court because It
should have been made earlier. Coon told
the story of A. A. Edglngton's coming to
his office and asking for his records , saying
that ho was the son of Maurice F. Edging-
ton , and his mother wanted to get n pen
sion. They were unable to find the name ,
and Edglngton took the books home , returnIng -
Ing a few days later with the books , saying
that ho had found the name of Francis M.
Edglngton , who , ho thought , must be his
father , although there seemed to be a mls-
tnko somewhere. On cross-examination he
said that there were a good many Edging-
tons enlisted from Iowa.
Francis M. Edgington of Muscatlnc , the
supposed deceased father of the defendant ,
was put upon the stand and swore ho was
enlisted In company F , Thirty-fifth Iowa In
fantry , and served three years. He never
had been married but once , nnd his wife
was still living. There wcro three other
Edglngtons In that company , his brother ,
Joseph Ira , and his two cousins , David
Sampson and A. T. Edglngton , none but the
ast named having been married. All four
inllsted at Muscatlne. These statements
vero corroborated by George W. Baxter of
West Liberty and Thomas SI. Brown of
iluscatlne.
E. C. Brown , the United States pension
examiner , was put upon the stand to tell of
.ho taking of the deposition which has since
jrought the young man Into so deep trouble.
Ills story has already appeared In print.
The defendant's attorneys Inquired con
cerning some Instructions he had from the
government with reference to fraudulent pen
sion claims In this vicinity , and two docu
ments of this kind were secured , but no
others , the court holding ; that the district
attorney , In whose custody they were , could
not be required to give them up. The cross-
, examiner attempted to get an admission that
, the witness had put Into the affidavit state
ments that he knew could not be true , but
the court ruled out questions concerning
,
matters which were clearly shown by the
affidavit.
Brown said A. A. Edglngton told him
some time after the affidavit was signed , that
he received a telegram from Masons at Lo
. Mars , Mo. , announcing his father's death.
, Brown asked him If ho had ever heard ol
, his father taking an assumed name , and he
said all the other name he know of his going
by was "Captain , " and did not know where
he got It. Ho had never seen his father's
certificate of discharge and could not furnish
a sample of his father's handwriting. His
mother , he said , was without means of sup.
, portLater
- Later , In January , 1894 , Drown testified
that he saw Edglngton In Iowa City aboul
the case , at the time ho was about to laj
the matter before the grand Jury , but denlei
. having advised him to leave the date of his
father's death as ho first put It , January
188G , or telling him he could thus secure mon
pension , for the time of his father's deatl
could not affect the amount of the pension
:
At that time he had ascertained that tin
real Francis M. Edglngton was alive , al
though he had not seen him. He did not tel
I young Edgington that his mother's claim wni
fraudulent , but told him he had learnei
that ho was not at his father's funeral
Edglngton admitted this , but said he wai
present when his father's remains were ex
humed. He refused , however to make thesi
corrections In his affidavit.
J. D. Johnson and his brother , James John
son , were the next witnesses. Both hai
known M. F.
Edglngton when he was i
country school teacher for one term ; hai
seen him In a soldier's uniform , and Janie
had known Mrs. Jennie M. Edglngton a
Melissa Jane.
Attorney McPherson for the defense askei
the latter whether ho had refused to an
swer when asked In his , McPhenon's , roon
at the Grand hotel about what he wouli
testify to , saying that he was telling th
government what he knew and had notulni
for any one else. Questions of this ser
were ruled cut. Judge Woolson holding tha
a witness summoned by one side was no
bound to tell the other side what ho wouli

Mary West testified that she went to
school to M. F. Edglngton In 1SG4.
Emily Slmmonds , nn aunt of the defendant
and a sister of W. B , CuwyTjwas supposed
to t be a witness for the goyermncnt. but was
not n very tatlsfnctory ' 6hd. She knew
Hdglngton 1 In 1864 , and heard him called
"Teacher , " "Captain" Edglngton and Mau
rice , but she afterwnrdiA dlQlcd that she
heard him called by the last appellation.
A. P. Little and S. B. MorrUsey , the latter
clerk of the district court , atHarlan , , , were
on the stand , but their testimony added no
very startling features. Th 'Case , from the
way It Is starting out , my > brf looked for to
last n weckr The defense'expects to prove
that Edglngton the elder went under the
name of M. F. Edglngton nnd F. M. Edging-
ton , changing his name after arriving In

. ish in some cases. Lots of folks die every year that
could postpone it as well as not if they'd use a little
common sense. Are you getting all run down ? Get
ting consumption , are you ? Doctor says you are in a
. bad way , does he ? Do you want to die ? If you do ,
don't try our kind of medicine. If you want to live ,
take Ozomulsion. It only costs a dollar to try it. It
can't hurt you. There's not much in it but cod liver
oil and guaiacol. The doctor probably gives you the
common cod liver oil now. But this is ozonized.
How's that done ? That's our secret. That's what
helps the cod liver oil and guaiacol to go where it will
do the most good. Try it. It will make you hungry-
things will look better to you you'll eat more you'll
get more flesh on your bones you'll begin to build up
you may get better right away. If one bottle helps
you ever so little , you'vestarted in the right direction
try another.

The case of C. R. Hannan , receiver for the

udge Smith yesterday afternoon. A lot In
illdland addition to Council Blurts was In-
olvcd. The owner mortgaged the lot to the

orcclose the mortgage It was found that the
ax deed had been sold by J. R. Black , who

jult to have the tax deed set aside , and the
case was taken under advisement yesterday.

WASHINGTON , April 12. The letter sent
by Commander Tinnier of the Union Veteran
ledRtio requesting the various ciicnmpni ( > n:8 :
to contribute to a fund to be used In testing
In the courts the validity of the actions of
the commissioner of pensions In reducing or
suspending pensions nas aroused considerable
Interest In the Pension bureau.
The law states that a pension shall not bo
reduced or suspended without a thirty days'
notice to the pensioner , containing a full
and true statement ct the charges of al
legations on account oflilcli action Is con
templated.
Speaking of the matter today Commis
sioner I.ochrcn said"If Commander Tan
ner nnd Mr. Hopkins wish to bring nny
other cases against my ruling 1 have no
objccllons , but I see no hope of their seeing
any favorable action on the ground Involved
In the Long or Shakespeare cares , they
being utteily different from others In the de
partment. The Long cans will be heard In
the court of appeals next Monday , and may
be carried to the supreme court If cither
party desires. In view of the fact that the
Long case Involved the mnterhl po'nts ' of
the Shakespeare case , aside from the ques
tion of notice. I shall probably wait until
that Is decided before I Issue the new notice
In the Shakespeare case. In nil the other
cases In which notice has been sent ( lion-
Is no question of Its sulllclcncy. The act
of Juno 27 , 1S90 , gave pensions ranging from
(12 to $6 a month to persons who had been
In the service for twenty days and were
mentally or physically disabled so as to be
permanently Incapacitated for minor labor.
In granting pensions under this law the
question of Incapacity for minor labor was
disregarded In many cases , and In others
the rating was mucc too high. In many
cases pensions nould be ghcu for the loss
of ono eye or ono car , which certainly does
not Incapacitate for minor labor. The no
tices made the proper statements regarding
the cases "
