BLUFFS TEAM GETS DRUBBING Btoax City Wine it by a Score of Twelve to a now of Cipher. Council Bluffs suffered a rather humiliat ing defeat In the game with Bloux City on the Manawa diamond yesterday after noon, the score being 11 to 0. Meta waa put In the box" for tile first' tfydut and the visitors solved him at once, batted his delivery over the field pretty regularly and made six runs In the first Inning. This caused a demoralization from which the Bluffs team failed to recover, and the Sioux Citylans scored a seventh run In the fourth inning and four more In the seventh, while the locals continued throughout to pile up the gooee eggs. The game was not satisfactory to the crowd, and the crowd was not satisfactory to the management. Not so good ball was shown as In the game between the duffs and Lemars on Thursday, and the crowd was even smaller than on that day, scarcely 100 people being preaent. Buck Keith says he Is no quitter, but that tf Council Bluffs Is to have & ball team worthy of the name the enterprise must have support. The small attendance Is In part attributed to the great distance the field la from the heart of the city and the difficulty and delay In getting there with a service requiring a change of cars on the way and a multiplicity of fares. This will In part be remedied soon, as tho regular Manawa train service Is to be put on by the motor company tomorrow. .The score: R H E Sioux City ... 0 9 1 0 0-11 9 2 Council BlufTs.e 00 9 00000 0 4 Batteries: Council Bluffs, Mets, Frank lin and Freese; Sioux City, Hopkins and Bruggeman.

YOUNG MATIIESON C1YES UP In Company with Hit Attorney Present Himself to the Sheriff. v ILL FROM EXPOSURE AND LACK OF FOOD Says Ue lias Been In Canada Since Making- His Escape After the Shooting; of Deputy Sheriff Baker. George Matheson, the young man who shot and seriously wounded Deputy Sheriff Baker at Weston, this county, on the night of May 7, surrendered yesterday afternoon to the authorities and Is now behind the bars at the county Jail. He Is quite 111 from exposure and lack of proper food and the services of a physician had to be secured for him shortly after his ar rival at the Jail. Young Matheson waa accompanied from his home at Weston by Attorney Emmet Tlnley, one of the attorneys retained to defend him. who delivered him over to the sheriff's office shortly before S o'clock last evening. The Indictment agalnat Matheson charges assault with Intent to commit murder and hla ball was fixed at 310,000. In view of the fact that Deputy Sheriff Baker Is now rapidly recovering from the effects of his wound, counsel for Matheson ex pects the court will consent to reduce the amount of the bond. In any event ball will be furnished, It Is said. Matheson, when placed In the county Jail, declined to talk bey6nd stating that he had been in Canada since the shooting had returned to give himself up of his own free will, as he was tired of being a fugi tive from Justice. His looks did not belle his statement that he was ill and he had every appearance of a man who had suf fered from want of food and rest. His face was covered with a thick beard. Indi cating that he had not shaved from the first night of his flight. Story of His Wanderings. Although Matheson declined to talk, evidently acting upon the advice of his attorneys, Mr. Tlnley gave an account of the young man's wanderings since the night of the shooting. He said that fol lowing the shooting and after Matheson had made good his escape from Deputy Sheriff Knox, he made his way to Love land, where he caught a freight train an went to Sioux City. From there he worked his way into Minnesota and for a few days worked on a section gang at Northfleld. From Northfleld he went to St. Paul and succeeded In making his way from there Into Canada, A few days of Canada made him homesick and he decided to return and give himself up. He reached hie home at Weston at 4 o'clock yesterday morning, having been two weeks on the road home. He said he had eaten nothing practically during the last three days of the trip. Matheson's father came to the city yes terday morning and after a consultation with the attorneys decided that It was best for the boy to surrender himself and Attorney Tlnley at once drove out to Wes ton to accompany the boy here. The authorities do not altogether place credence In the story of the young man's wanderings as related by his attorneys. They say there- are several discrepancies In the story. In the first place, they point out that while it took two weeks for him to make the return trip from Canada, it only took him one week to get there after stopping In Sioux City and Minnesota, where he worked, as he said, with a rail road section gang. The authorities are of the opinion that the young man has been at or near his home since the night of the shooting and that his relatives supplied him with provisions at night time, but that becoming seriously HI, It was found necessary that he have medical attend ance, so It was decided that the best thing would be for him to give himself up to the authorities.

May 3.-fSpeclal Telegram.) After wrangling five hours today over the preamble to tne resolutions the prohibition state convention late this afternoon finished Its labors, adopted a platform and nominated the following state ticket: For Governor J. F. Hanson of Mahaska county. For Lieutenant Governor J. IL Scull of Henry county. For Superintendent of Public Instruction J. A Word of Polk county. For Railroad Commlsslonei E. Dewey of Woodbury county. For Attorney General William Orr of Tags county. Hanson was nominated on the first ballot, tha vote standing 202 to 101 for Scull, the only other candidate. The debate on the preamole was unique and added Interest to what promised to bo one of the tamest conventions In the his tory of the party. After trie convention In 1902 some prohibition leaders discovered that the preamble to the platform practically made Jesus Christ responsible for the saloons and other evils. In words which state "all governments derive their au thority from Jesus Christ." This year a change was demanded. Two reports were brought In by the committee. The majority report was a modification of last year's preamble, designed to correct the error, but still keeping Christ In tha preamble. The convention, however, adopted a substitute, simply recognising the authority of God In affairs of men. The platform declares for etate and na tional prohibition; equal suffrage; repeal of the Martin law; enforcement of all lawst stricter divorce laws; arbitration; non partisan commission to deal with trnde and tariff schedules; initiative and referendum; election of senators by the people; leglsla tion against trusts.

DEPEND ON LEGISLATURE TO MAKE GOOD Damage to Glenwood Institution Might Hare Been Much Worse Had Slew Boilers Beea ; In Plaee. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, May 28. -(Special.) Chair man Cownie and Judge Robinson of the State Board of Control returned early this morning from Glenwood, where they went with the state architect, H. L. Llebbe, to plan for the repairs and Improvements at the State Institution for the Feeble Minded. They made arrangements for the work that Is Immediately necessary at the Institution, but they have arranged for a meeting of the state executive council next Monday to see what the state can do In the way of securing an emergency appropriation. The actual damage to state property Is at least $60,000, but more than this would oe needed to replace the buildings as they should be replaced. The board has no money at its command for repairs. The providential fund at the command of the state executive council la now down to less than 14,000. In 1894, when the main building at Glenwood was struck by light ning and burned, the executive council gave $40,000 for Immediate use, although It had not a dollar at its command legally, and later the legislature unanimously Indorsed this action by covering the appropriation. The council will be asked to do something at this time toward relieving the board. The funeral of one of the victims of the storm at Glenwood occurred yesterday, but they were waiting for the relatives of the other child. There were 100 children in the dormitory when a part of the root was broken down. This is one of the oldest buildings at the institution and was origi nally built for the Iowa Soldiers' Orphans home In 1866. A temporary roof can be placed on the part not torn down. The school at the institution is to be closod and that building used as a dormitory. The power station was badly Injured by the fall of the eighty-foot smokestack. The board was fortunate In that three boilers soon to have been Installed to take place of old ones removed were not yet In place, but can be set up in two or three days. The light for the custodian building and hospital is now furnished from a plant in the former building. The board was for tunate In that an independent pumping plant has been provided and was started only this week, so that there is water for the Institution. "We might have fared much worse," said Chairman Cownie this mornlnr. "We were fortunate In that only two were killed and the Injured will all get well. Three are In the hospital now."

Hull of the judge ad vocate's department of the army and sta tioned In Omaha, has received official no tice of his promotion io he lieutenant cola- nel.
