Tuesday was tho last day of regular
recitation work at tho High cchool for the
term, but tho usual program was varied
somewhat, owing to tho lnsurbordlnatlou
of some of tho pupils and tho police wcro
called twlco witntti an hour to the school
by Principal Knslgn to quell a disturbance.
No arrests wero made, as the boys who
wero responsible for tho trouble ran on
(ho approach of tho ofllcer' and got untlor
cover.
Tho trouble started over nn obnoxious
yell, In which ono of tho faculty was held
up to ridicule. This yell had been given
vent to Monday and when bcIioo! convened
yesterday morning thrco pupils, Charles
Campbell, Harry Hall, Will Dlngman, who
had, It Is said, refused to apologize to tho
teacher whose name was Joined In tho yell,
were ordered by Principal Ensign to go to
their homes and think tho matter over and
be prepared when thoy returned to school
Wednesday morning to apologize.
Tho boys, Instead of going home, hung
around tho cchool grounds and at the noon
recess gavo out tho Impression to the other
pupils that they had been expelled. They
wero Joined by seven other pupils and nt
tho close of the recess repaired to tho
bluff nt the back of tho school, hooted and
yelled, gave vent to tho obnoxious yell and
refused to dlsperso when ordored by the
principal. Tho pollco were tolcphoned for,
but as soon as tho ofllcer made his appear
ance tho boys cur and ran. When they
felt assured that the officer hnd gone tho
refractory pupils, reinforced by a number
of other boys, rongregated on tho bluff
again nnd created such a disturbance that
study for tho other pupils was out of the
question. Tho pollco wero again called
upon, but with the same result.
Tho seven boys who nt recess Joined tho
thrco originators of tho disturbance were,
according to Prof. Ensign. Allen Dudley,
Kvcrctt Goodrich, Phillip Organ. Carl Pill
ing, Will natchelor, John Nowton nnd Al
bert Treynor. Goodrich appeared In school
attired In tho masqucrndo attlro of a coun
try hayseed, with overalls, red bandana
and old straw hat. This was overlooked by
Principal Ensign cn Goodrich's promising
to stay In bis own room, but when tho
"fun," as ho termed It, commenced nt the
noon recess ho left tho building nnd Joined
the other disturbers.

After hearing the evidence Judgo Ayles
worth of the superior court yesterday
afternooh denied tho application for a writ
of habeas corpus in tho case of Maud
Huey, the 16-ycar-old bride of Dclbert Hucy
of Pacific Junction. The youug woman
herself testified that she preferred to re
main with her parents, nnd Indications aro
that tho young man will bo without a wlfo
as soon as tho necessary proceedings to
nnnul the marriage can bo completed In tho
courts.
From the application for the writ of
habeas corpus It appeared that tho young
brldo herself was Becking to secure her
release from her parents' restraint, but
tho testimony of tho child wlfo was to tho
contrary. Hardly had tho marrlago cere
mony bten performed before she realized
tho gravity of tho stop sho had taken
nnd she was a willing party to the pro
ceedings Instituted by her parents to nnnul
the tnnrrlagc.
On behalf of the young husband a num
ber of , letters written by the girl were
Introduced to show that the wedding had
been urged by hor and that sho was a
willing party to It. In ono of the lotters
written but n few days bctoro tho marrlngo,
sho wrote, "l would not live longer without
you than It would tako to die. I know
you aro mlno nnd 1 nm yours. You aro
never oft of my mind for a minute."
"You havo changed your mind slnco you
wroto that letter?" asked counsel for the
husband of the young woman.
"Yes," enmo tho nnswer, "I havo changed
ray mind," but no amount of cross-ques-tlonlng
could lndiico tho youthful witness
to say what had caused her cnango of
feeling to Hucy.
Counsel nsked her If sho was legally
married to young Huey would she live
with him as his wife, and again tho youug
woman nnsworcd In tho negative. Sho
denied that sho had been Influenced by
her parents, nnd said sho "bad changed
her mind aud thnt was nil."
In dismissing the application for a writ,
Judgo Aylesworth took occasion to say that
his decision had no bearing on tho legality
of tho marriage, as It was not Involved In
tho hearing before him, and ho Impressed
upon tho young woman tho necessity of
conducting herself ns n married woman
until such tlmo as tho court might annul
tho marriage.

Emll Elshclmer, n flremnn In tho employ
of tho Chicago & Northwestern railroad,
living nt 1619 Avcnuo F, was arrested Inst
evening, charged with running a switch en
gine Into the pit of tho turntable at tho
roundhouse. Tho engine wns ono which
Elshetmet had been In charge of Monday
night nnd had run It Into tho house. When
tho flro was made up In It yesterday
morning tho engine started off on Its own
accord nnd went Into tho pit. Investiga
tion showed that the throttle bad been left
open.
This fact, tnken In connection with an
anonymous letter which had been received
Monday by W. J. Shadle, day foreman at
tho roundhouse, led to Elsholmcr's nrrest.
The sender of tho Icttor had taken un
usual precautions to conceal his Identity
and Instead of using pen or pencil tho
words wero made up from letters cut from
the headlines of n newspaper nnd pasted
on the sheet of paper. Tho addres'i on tho
envelope showed that It had been mailed
In this city on poon Monday. It wns re
ceived by Foreman Shadle that nftcrnoon.
In tho letter Shadle wns told to dis
charge a certnln employe within flvo days,
whom tho writer accused of Insulting his
woman friend. Tho writer mndo tho threat
that If the man was not discharged ho
would get even by blowing up tho cnglno
house, running engines Into the pit, etc.
As tho first engine to run Into the pit was
one that had been brought into tho house
Monday night by Elshclmer, ho was sus
pected of being tho writer of the threaten
ing letter and was nrrestcd, under a
section of tho Btnto code which prescribes
a penalty of not moro than ten years In
the penitentiary or n fine not exceeding
000, or both, for wilfully running nn
engine Into an open pit.
Elshelmer was arraigned beforo Judge
Aylesworth last evening and protested his
innocence nnd Ignorance of tho letter. He
was released on $800 ball, furnished by his
father. Elshelmer has been In tho employ
of tho Northwestern rond for tho last three
years, but slnco the recent reduction In tho
number of men In the ynrdB has been work

Nothing has yet como of tho proposal of the
members of tho Iowa State Butter nnd Egg
Denlers" association to engage In a war
ugalnst. tho packing houses which have
entered tho field In Iowa for haudllng the
poultry und egg business. The last meet
ing of the association wns largely given
over to discussion of this subject. It was
reported that becauso of their superior
facilities for handling poultry and eggs the
packing companies wcro driving out local
doalcrs wherover they engaged In business.
They havo tho connection with markets nnd
their own lines of refrigerator cars and
aro well equipped for doing tho business.
Tho regular retail dealers iu butter and
eggs threaten to take severe measures to
curb tho packing companies and call In
representatives of the railroads and of tho
freight lines to help them. But the pack
ing companies, notably Swift nnd Armour,
aro preparing to greatly cnlargo their busi
ness In Iowa. This week work was com
menced on n big new warehouse and plant
for Swift at Shenandoah for tho south
western lown trade Similar warehouses
havo been erected at several points In
Iowa. Thus far tho association of butter
nnd egg dealers has accomplished nothing
In tho way of shutting out the packers.

Jennie Wado monument. Last fall It was
decided to erect n monument to tho mem
ory of Jennie Wade, tho only woman kilted
In tho battle of Gettysburg, nnd who was
a sister of the present department secre
tary! Mrs. Georgia Wnde McClellan of Dcnl
son. Accordtugly n call was sent out to the
different corps In tho stato asking for aid.
A request was made thnt each member
contribute 10 cents, or that ench corps re
turn an assessment on thnt basis. It wns
hoped In this manner to ralso at least $S0O.
With this money a shaft was to bo fcrected
In tho cemetery adjoining the battleground
nt Gettysburg und It was hoped that tho
work could bo accomplished In time so that
It might be um oiled or dedicated on July I,
tho annlvcrrary of Jcnnlo Wade's death.
Tho exact condition of tho movement will
bo made known nt the encampment nnd
It Is believed that an additional effort will
bo mado to ralso tho money necessary to
complete tho plans already under way.

GKINNELL, la . June 4. (Special Tele-
gram ) Genrgo I). Ilerron, Christian so
cialist, wixa expelled from membership In
thu Congregational church today after a
lengthy trial, In which thirteen Congre
gational churches joined. After hearing all
tho testimony, ns well as a letter of de
fense sent by Hcrron, tho church tribunal
found tho following:
First That the chnren of Immoral nnd
uu-Chrlfitlunllko conduct Is sustained by tho
tlndltigx ut' tho court, which ut Algomt on
.Miircn 21, iwi, grnnioii u iiccroo of divorce
to Mnry Kvcrharil llcrrou from her hus
band on tho grounds of desertion and In
human treatment.
Second The snmo charge Is further sus
tained bv evidence proKi-ntod to the council
showing that Georgo D, llerron's manner
toward inn wro wno consi-craieu nor uro
lo tho effort lo mnko him lmtuy. relieved
him of care mid aided him In fulMllliiK what
sho be I loved to be bin high calling has bcoit
that of unfeeling tmtl soltlsh Indifference,
and, at least slnco UM, of studied neglect,
rulmltiatliiK In a heartless desertion und the
llnul tragedy of divorce.
Third The samo charge. Is further sus
tained by confession contained In the paper
written by Mr. Hcrron In his own defense
und rend to tho council. In tliLi paper ho
denies the right of society to sanction or
undo a miirrlngo tie between mnn nnd
womnn, presents u view of tho conjugal re
lation, of parenthood and tho homo which
is abhorrent to enlightened Christian senti
ment, nnd which confirms tho council In
tho onlnloii that this nctliui of Georgo 1).
Hcrron Is simply tho criminal desertion of
a worthy wife, nnd devoted mother by n
man who lias ttclliicrnleiy tiusiiieu ins mar
Hugo vowt. In view of theso findings It Is
Itesolved. That wo commend to the Orln-
nell association thnt thu name of Georgo D,
Hcrron be dropped from Its roll of mom-
ncrunip, niso irotn tnc urinncni congress
tlonal church: also thnt wo exnress our con
vidian ihut George D. Hcrron has for
feited nil light to be known by tho churches
of our ftt.lt li ami order ns n minister of tho
gospel, mid that ho Is by the vote of this
council deposed from the Christian min
istry.
Hcrron's letter to tho church trial was
lengthy nnd said In part: "I do not bo
Hove, thnt the present marriage system Is
sacred or good. It rather seoms to mo
tho destruction of liberty and lave nnd
truth, which make life sacred and worth
while. Tho family founded on forco Is a
survival of slavery and ono of tho cxpres
slons of slavo principles on which our
whnlo civilization Is built. And now you
may judge us. But lot mo say that I would
rather bo tho worst that has been Bald
about mo, rather bo worso than tho so
vorcst denunciation has mado mo out to
bo than to sit In ono of your places as my
judge, or In thn ptnea of those clergymen
who havo sought to destroy my good nnme
without knowing anything of tho cause or
tho facts they wero judging. If my good
namo Is gono nnd my small value to tho
world with It, I think the church has paid
a dear piic6 for this destruction, however
worthy Its motives."
Tho letter of Prof. Hcrron wns written
beforo his tnnrrlagc to Miss Band In New
York. Ho declares that ho will accept the
Judgment of tho council nnd stand con
demned ns the council stales It; that ho
will not ngaln speak In any pulpit or seek
to do so; that ho realizes that his con
demnation will bo complete, nnd both ho
nnd Miss Rand will stand beforo the world
completely condemned nnd discredited. But
ho (lends that Miss Band had anything to
do with tho Reparation. It was due to
causes originating beforo ho over know-
Miss Band. Tho separation wa3 not that
ho might wed Miss Band, but that he might
ceaso to live h Ho and begin living tho
truth. Ho declnrcs he did not desert his
children, but that ho believed It was best
for them to go with their mother, where
thoy would naturally chooso to go. For
his wedding to Miss Baud, and his Intimacy
with her ho takes full responsibility.

The first brewery of Jos.
Schlitz was a hut, but the
beer that was brewed there
was honest. That was fifty
years ago. Today the mag
nificent Schlitz brewery
forms a monument to that
honesty.
From the very beginning
the main object has been to
attain absolute purity. In
Schlitz beer pure yeast was
first introduced in America.
In the Schlitz brewery arc
all the inventions men have
made for protecting beer
from impurities.
Schlitz beer is even cooled
in filtered air; then it is fil
tered, then sterilized. It is
well aged to avoid the cause
of biliousness.
Ask your physician about
Schlitz, the beer that made
Milwaukee famous.
