From Dubuque, Davenport, Cedar Rapids, Sioux City and numerous other smaller towns of Iowa come reports of Insufficient school room to accommodate the Increased attendance. The scarcity of male school teachers is a matter of universal comment and com plaint in Iowa, but as their pay averages only aiout $-10 a month there is nothing strange about It. Kate Shelly, who twenty years ago made herself famous by saving a Chicago paa Mnrer train from wreck In a storm, has Just been appointed a nurse In the Insane asylum at Cherokee. N. N. Jones, warden of the state peni tentiary at Fort Madison, explains the large falling oft In the number of convlcta the last few yesrs by the fact that under the Iowa license law there are fewer boot leggers and other Illicit liquor sellers. Up near Sibley some farmer boys got tired playing a alot machine, so they stole it and hid it In a corn field. When they had got all the cigars they retjrned to tewn and stole three bicycles, and now they are being railroaded to the penitentiary. During the county fair at Esthervtlle a burglar entered the omee ot the Repub lican, the local newspaper, and went through the safe, securing Just 10 cents. The editor proposed that the perpetrator, If apprehended shall be taken before the beard ot Insanity. The latest novelty in city government Is Mayor Caldwell's way of suppressing gam bling In Siojx City. He Issued orders to the police to stop all green cloth short and then offered a reward of 0 for proof of any policeman's refusal or negligence In enforcing the order.

School Superintendents of Iowa counties In which there are large cities are being flooded with letters and Inquiries as to when children will be reaulred to spend the specltled time In studies. The new law says that children of school age must spend at least twelve week In school dur ing the year. It does not state what period of year, nor who shall decide the point.

LIGHT FROSTS DO NOT HARM THE CROPS Trial ot Thomas Lewis for Killing of Peterson Children Falls to Develop Any Direct Testimony Against lllm. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Sept. 9. (Special.) The mystery of the death of a stranger In Dei Moines under most peculiar circumstances was partially solved todny. The man ar rived here three or four weeks ago and at a hotel where he went he acted strangely. When asked to register his name he de clared he had forgotten what his nsme was. He was turned over to the police and later sent to a hospital, where he re mained 111 until last evening, when he died. He was a handsome, middle-aged man, with snow white hair snd an air ot good breeding. He had evidently been pros perous. When the hospital authorities re ceived him the police stated there were no effects on his person and nothing to re veal his Identity. Today the police found a large package of papers which had been taken from the stranger when be was thrown Into Jail snd had not been returned to htm. From these papers it was found that bad two honorable discbarges from the army, one under the name ot William Beaver and the other under the name of Henry Martin, Indicating that his habit of forgetting his name had been acquired a good many years ago. He had served in the Thirty-fifth New York regiment and in the Eleventh Minnesota, and was discharged from each one honorably. It was also found that he had lived in recent years In Minneapolis and had engaged in selling jewelry. The Grand Army post took charge ot the body and Is making an effort to locate his rela tives and friends in Minnesota. The man did not seem to be demented the past few days of his life, but simply could not re call his own name or his past and fully realized his unfortunate condition. Governor and the President.

Light frosts occurred in parts of Iowa last night, but "Director Sage ot the weather and crop service does not antic ipate danger to ta"corn crop from it. The frost was not of the killing kind and will do the crop little Injury. However, if a heavy frost does visit Iowa before October 1 much damage will be done, as at least one-third of the corn hat not reached maturity as yet. Iowa Crop Report. Weekly crop bulletin of the Iowa section of the climate and crop service of the Weather bureau, for the week ending Sep tember 8, 1902: The dally average tem perature for the week was about 3 degrees below normal, but the days were mostly clear and favorable for threshing and other field work. On the morning of the 4th light frost was observed In numerous locali ties, but reports indicate no material dam age. Showers on the Cth were widely dis tributed and generally not excessive. The corn crop appears to be making fairly good advancement in the larger part of the state, though its progress is not suffi ciently rapid to allay anxiety as to its future safety. While about two-thirds of the crop is nesrlng maturity and may bs en tirely safe by the 20th, yet there will be an unusually large percentage of soft corn if killing frost comes befcre October 1. The extremely wet and cool condition ot the soli greatly retards the ripening process. Some portion of the oats crop that had ben left In the shock has been threshed dur ing the week and the reports Indicate that the percentage ot loss will be very heavy. Spring wheat Is in better condition, the bulk ot tbo crop being grown in the dryer districts of the state. Numerous com plaints are being received of loss of late potatoes by rotting or blight of the tops. The crop of fall apples Is better than waa Indicated by early reports. Trial of Thomas Lewis. The perllminary hearing in the case ot the State against Thomas Lewis, the Mar quisvllle miner accused ot the murder of the Peterson children, was commenced to day in justice court and It attracted a great deal of attention. There had been rumors to the effect that the lawyer who had filed the Information had gone into the mine disguised as .a miner and obtained from Lewis corroborating evidence of hit guilt. This is denied by the lawyer and all who have Information In regard to the mat ter. But very little that was sensational was brought out lo ths hearing. There were circumstance's tending to show that Lewis was in the Immediate vicinity of the crime at the time it was committed, but no direct evidence. It is believed gen erally that he cannot be convicted. - Railroad Chances ?fame.
