The Grape Growers' association held an
Important meeting In Farmers' hall In the
basement of the county court house yester
day. Ono meeting waa held at 10 o'clock
and the other In the afternoon. The meeting
was Important for the reason that It was tc
decide whether or not the association was tc
continue Its organization. Its fate depended
entirely upon thu showing that _ would be
made by the final report of the secretary and
manager. A number of the members had
acquired the Impression that the association
was an expensive luxury that they were
maintaining without adequate returns. The
detailed reports , however , convinced them
such was not the case , but showed that mem
bership In the ncsoclatlon had conferred
benefits upon nil of the Individual shippers
not only In enabling them to llntl
ready market for the product ol
their vineyards nnd gardens , but hail
given them a uniformly higher price than
was received by the growers outside of the
association. The detailed report showed that
the association had shipped 110,870 baskets
of grapea during the season , which netted
the grower , * $10,813.00 , and that the total
Income of the association for the
summer and fall was $21,104.58.
The detailed -report shows that
there were shipped r < S3 casco of straw
berries , 3.GSO cases of black raspberries , 5SO
casea of red raspberries , 2,205 cases of black
berries , 202 cases gooseberries , 232 cases
and 150 baskets of currants , 4,203 baskets of
herrlca. 320 cases of cherries , S59 cases and
199 barrels of apples , 7.I3C baskets and
sixty-two CESCS of plums. This was In addi
tion to supplying the home and Omaha mar-
ketn during the season.
The reports showed that the association
was In excellent financial shape and had paid
off $1,000 of last jear's dohts , leaving It at
the present time practically out of debt. At
the conclusion of the reading of the reports
ho sentiment that was supposed to favor the
Jlabandlng of the association had all been
changed to enthusiastic support and the
work of elc-otlng olllcers for the new year
was taken up. J. I' . HOES was chosen presi
dent , Samuel Avcry vice president , L. O. W.
Wlllla-ns secretary and Charles Konlgmacher
treasurer. A board of directors was elected
as follows : Samuel Avcry , chairman ; Peter
\Veis , 0. J. Smith , J A. Ilerold , D. J. Smith ,
F. W. Meneray and G. G. Hlco.
CANN.ING PROJECT DISCUSSED.
The afternoon session was also of consid
erable Interest for the reason that the time
was chiefly given to the dlscuss'on of a plan
thoit has long been under contemplation the
reorganisation of the old canning works and
cransformlr.g It Into a fruit cannery during
"t least a part of the season. Samuel Haas ,
ho chief owner of the plant , was present and
IntioJuccd Mr. Huttcr , a practical canner ,
vho gave a great deal of valuable Informa
tion. Mr. Haas said he would make the as
sociation a definite proposition whenever It
was ready to be received , 'by ' which the plant
could bo leased for a term of years and
operated on the lines discussed. Mr. Rutter
itated that the works would have to depend
hlcfly upon the corn and tomato business
for support , but ho thought the fruit buai-
nesj could 'bo made a most Important spe
cial feature. It would be very valuable lethe
the fruit growers by furnishing them with
a sure market for all surplus fruits. Ho
submitted a schedule of prices which ho said
'tho ' wo-hs could guartanteo to allow to th
growers for all of the fruit delivered with
out a contract. The minimum prices proved
to bo about as high as the maximum prlco
realised during a good portion of the season
last year , when the growers were bringing
largo quantities of such perishable fruits as
raspberries and strawberries. With the
works In operation he nald there neo.l never
bo a box marketed at a lower price than waa
named , and when the shipping prices ex
ceeded It the growers were at full liberty to
divert their deliveries. The propositions
were received ivllh apparent interest nnd
fully tltecui'srd. A committee was appointed
to take the matter In hand and see what
could bo done toward Interesting the re
quired amount of capital. , A special meetIng -
Ing of the ansoclatlon will"bo held next Sat
urday afternoon to receive the report of this
committee.

There was a grout time at the Doling
Industrial school yesterday , Mrs. N , Dowen
and others had contributed a largo number
of presents Just prior to the New Year's
( iiiturtalnment , but owing to the large num
ber of ox-members ciud other visiting
children present on that oscaslan , It would
have been Impossible to luvo served all , so
the best presents were reserved until today
for Iho regular attendants , To avoid tiny
possible dl8satafactlan ! among the children ,
thu presents ware disposed of by means of1
a "fishing pond. " A curtain was stretched
acroKi one end of the hall atid behind this
curvaln were several of the ladles with all
thu presents. Ono of the tlIs was given a
fishing polo which she held over the curtain
In HtH'h a partition that the largo hook on
the end of the Him would fall within the

'BDDFOKD ' , la. , Jan. 8. ( Special Tele
gram. ) John McCaun died at the home of hi
father tonight , the result of a shot fired b ;
himself. His wife will be buried from he
late home at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
iMcCaun's crime was premeditated. Hi
went to the home of his wife last night fo ;
the deliberate purpose of shooting her. Hi
had frequently threatened to do this , and or
his way he told a man he met what he waf
going to do. The man trleS to dissuade him
but gave the matter little attention , as Mc
Caun was apparently Intoxicated and It was
not thought he would carry out his threat
Half an hour later the woman was dead. The
couple bad been divorced the second time al
the last term of court here , about a montli
ago. At that time the wife's plea was basec !
on threats mode by the husband and allega
tions of cruelty and neglect. She expressed
no fear , however , that ho would kill her , as
lie had threatened to do. bast night , before
the crime. McCaun said he was Jealous of his
i\lfe , with cause.
Very few words were passed at the house ,
The crazed husband opened flro at the
ivoman. Five shots were filed , three of which
aero of a fatal nature. Death was Instan-
; ancous. As soon as he had done the hhoot-
ng , 'McCaun ' ttcl from the house. lie re-
; urncd shortly and kneeling1 on the floor be-
ildo the corpse of the woman he bad mur-
lered he passionately kissed her cold lips
md poured out his grief , saying he loved
lor and was sorry for what ho had done.
Suddenly ho left the body and went to his
ionic. Here ho told his mother what he had
lone. While he was narrating his mur-
Icrous act his little daughter , but 7 years
ild , knelt and prayed for her father and
nother.
McCaun asked his mother for a drink ol
vator , and when It was handed to him he
ook a white powder and swallowed It with
he water , and left the house. Ho pro-
: eeded at once to the southwest part of the
illy , in the opposite direction from his wife's
lomo , and went to another house , asked for
L drink of water and took another powder.
t Is now thought this was morphine. Ii.
ho meanwhile pursuit was formed and a
icarch was begun for the murderer. All
light ho wan hunted for , but no trace of him
oil Id 'be ' found.
Thld mcrnlng his trail was discovered , lead-
ng to the field south of town. Hero ho was
llseovered In an old straw stack , when' he
iad tossed the night , apparently gotag there
0 die , after taking the morphine or what-
ver drug It was. Death had not overtaken
ilm and the cordon of pursuers wan alowly
ilcsinK In on him. Escape was out of the
juestlon , so ho deliberately placed the muz-
do of Iris revolver to his forehead end fired ,
lo wan picked up and taken In a buggy to
ils father's home , where ho still lies unccti-
clous , with no hope for his life.
T'hero ' Is llttlo ( iiitiUlon as to
