NO SALARY FOR PARR BOARD Governor Eigni Bill Before tb Froteit of Major Vurae Beaches Him MAY NOT AFFECT THE PRESENT OFFICERS Members of Park Heard say They Will Perferan Da t lee Jast Same Whether They Re ceive Salary of Wat. Although the announcement that the legislature had passed, an amendment to the park board law abolishing the saarlts of park commissioners In all cltlea of the state having a population of less that) 40, on) came as a great surprise. Inquiry yee terday ahowed that It waa generally ap proved and commended by the business men of the city. As stated In the dispatches from Des Moines, Mayor Macrae and others had tele graphed Governor Cummins, asking Mm to withhold hi i.lgnature, but, according to advices received by Secretary Heed of the Commercial club, the bill has been signed. A telegram to riecretary Reed from Gov ernor Cummins' private secretsry, said: "The bill to which you refer reached the governor April Mid wss signed and sent to the secretary of state within the three days allowed by law or signing bills." The three members of the park board of this city, while iefratnlng from discussing the propriety of the state legislature thus unceremoniously lopping off their salaries, said they would continue to administer the affairs of the parks, salary or no salary. Commissioner Graham, the father of the park system of Council Blufh", said: "Well, I served the city as park commis sioner for sixteen years without pay snd I suppose I can continue to do so." There are some who are Inclined to be lieve that the amendment to the park hoard law lopping off the salaries of the com missioners emanated from Council I'lufTs. It has been no secret that many of the business men and larger taxpayers were ot satisfied with existing conditions. They took the ground that It ws unreasonable for the city to oay three commissioners $1,500 to disburse between $,000 and $7,000, the amount of the annual park levy. Com parison was made with other boards of iho city, as. for Instance, the library and school hoards. The members of these boards are called upon to devte as much If not more of their time to the work of attending to the affairs of the public schools and of the public library ns the commissioners are for the parks, and they receive no compensa tion whatever for thalr labors. Then again It was pointed out that the city aldermen, whose duties are twofold. If not threaiold, those of the park commissioners, receive only $240 a year. -, The question has been rslsed whether the legislature has the power to change the compensation of officers during the term for which they were elected. Several at torneya who were asked regarding thla point gave It as their optnlon that the com pensation of the park commissioner being fixed by statute enacted by the legU: lure. the legislature undoubtedly had the power to repeal that statute whenever it sess nt to do so. . Commissioner Peterson was elected when the law only provided an annual compensa tion of $100 for the members of the park board, but for the last three years, since the amendment enacted by the Twenty- Ighth general assembly, he hsa drawn $600 year. Commissioner Graham, who was elected two years ago, came under the $ J0 year law. Captain :irown, who was lected at the recent city election and who naturally anticipated receiving I MO a year for the next sis years., 'vlll be only able to draw hla salary up to July 1. when the new aw goes Into effect and thereafter will have to serve without compensation. There were aome who were Inclined to the belief that the parks of the city would not now receive tne attention inai iney would If the commissioners had been prop erly compensated for their labors, but all three members of the board said yesterday that the people need have no fear on this account, as they would give tne parks in their charge the same attention snd care as If they were paid for their services. Every one, however, seems surprised thst a bill of such Importance should have been passed through both houses without at tention being directed to it. Senator Saun ders, who went to Rock Island from Des Molnea. Is expected home soon, when It Is thought he will be able te throw some light on the matter. neveals a Seeret Marriage. The sudden desth at Fort Crook of a soldier named Alexander has cauaed Miss Edna Christie, a young womsn of this city employed In a dry goods store on Main street, to disclose her secret marriage lo the dead soldier. Miss Christie, ether wise Mrs Alexsnder. Is the daughter of Mrs. Tyseck of 6:'4 Iowa avenue. She ssld yesterday when she learned that her hus band waa dead that aha was married to Alexander at Fort Crook on Sunday, April but had kept the marriage secret from her mother and stepfather, with whom she continued to make her home. Mrs. Alexan der wrote to her husband Wednesday and yeaterday nornlng the letter was returned to her unopened with an accompanying note from one of the officers to the effect that Alexsnder, who waa a member of the hospital st a ft, was dead, but giving no further Information. Mrs. Alexander, who la about It years of sge, left yesterday morning at once on receipt of the note from Fort Crook. Matters la District toort.

Henry i. Meyer of 821 Benton atreet left hla team and wagon, which was loaded with atoam coal, outside the store of the Bhugart-Ouren Seed company while he went Inside to make some purchases. A passing automobile frightened the horses and they ran away. Both horses fell aad one of the broken wheels of the wagon animals. The Injtrrlna of this horse were such thst It hsd to be shot, Patrol Driver Plattner being detailed to pat the animal out of its misery. HASKIKS PtTS IP A STIFF FlfiHT. Coafroats Ofleer with Sholgwa mm a trail Dog. Jsmes Hasklns, for whose arrest on a charge of drunkenneee a warrant had been Issued from the court of Justice Ouren. gave the officers all kinds of trouble yes tetday morning before he was taken Into custody. His condition was such from tho apparent excessive Indulgence In liquor that an Information charging Hasklns with being mentally deranged wss filed and his case will be Investigated today by the com missioners on Insanity. When Constable Albertl went to the Has klns home on South Seventeenth street yes terday morning he found Hasklns awaiting his arrival with a double-barrelled shotgun and a vicious looking bulldog which had a far from pleasant way of showing hla teeth when the officer came near. The shot gun later proved to be unloaded, but this waa unknown to Constable Albertl at the time and he decided to wait reinforcements before attempting to arrest his man. A telephone message to the sheriff's office brought Deputy MoCaffrey to .the scene. When the two officers started to lay their hands on Hasklns he ran to another room and Jumped Into bed, while the bulldog stood guard over him. James Prendergast, a friend and neighbor of the family, tried to Induce Hasklns to accompany the officers quietly, but Has klns" only reply to his advice was to pull a big revolver and point It at Prendergast with a threat that he had better clear out and attend to his own business. The sight of the revolver decided Prendergast that he had business elsewhere, but In his hur ried exit he stubbed his toe against some thing and fell. A small but heavy package which he was carrying struck Prendergast in the small of tho back when he fell, nnd for the Instant he thought that Hasklns had carried out his threat and shot. Prender gast let out a yell which could be heard for several blocks as he regained his feet and darted from the house. This incident amused Hasklns so much that he sent the dog after the fleeing man. The moment the dog left the room the officers closed In on Hasklns. and after a short struggle had him handcuffed. When the patrol wagon arrived Hasklns put up another fight and It took three officers to get him into it. James Hasklna Is a brother of William Hasklns, who was drowned at Lake Man aw a, and since his brother's death he has had the key to the saloon which his brother conducted and has been drinking heavily, according to the statement of his sister, Mrs. Holder, who filed the information leading to his arrest.

DRAINAGE BILL AMONG THE NUMBER soreme (oirl Flaally Settles Lead Cose, the Inreptloa of Which Dates Bark lo F.arly Days of the State. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOTNES, April 14.-(Speclal.)-In all seven bills were not signed by Governor Cummins before his departure for Indiana yesterday for rest. One or more of the seven may not be signed. He has thirty days In which to decide and they will not become laws unless the governor affixes his signature. The most important of the seven is the drainage law. This was recommended by the governor In his message, but he would not sign such an Important document without closest scrutiny of Its provisions. Two or three other bills relating to drain age are also in his hands for signature yet. One of these assumes to modify the old drainage law so as to make It legal by a provision for the proper notice to property owners and a hearing In protest. This Is for the purpose of settling up mat ters relating to ditches already constructed. Another Is the bill to 'authorize the sale of Islands in the meandered rivers. Still another Is the bill to authorise the council to sell or lease the meandered lakes of the state and to have them drained. There Is some opposition to this last named bill and he has been asked to hold It up for a hearing. In regard to one other of the drainage bills there la some doubt as to Its force. This Is a bill which, in effect, substitutes In the code of Iowa for the first time the common law rule for the civil law rule In the matter of surface water. It would enable the owner of the higher ground to drain the water off In the most convenient way, leaving the owner of lower ground to care for tho water as best he may. It is feared by some that this may be a bill of more far reaching Importance than was Intended and the governor has been asked to scrutinize It carefully. Another Important bill the governor is holding up. is the one relating to that class of semi-swindles, known as the "home co-operative" concerns. It would place them and all concerns making a business of coaxing money from men by means of installment schemes under the most rigid control and under heavy bonds. Bui the fear is that such a law may affect in juriously some perfectly proper business which it waa not Intended to touch, and the governor will consider this bill care fully. A similar bill was paused two years ago, and while It has been declared by the court here to be unconstitutional, It had tho effect of putting a stop to part of the business that was being carried on. Old Land Case Settled. The supremo court today decided a case which had a beginning back in 1856 when Theophllus Crawford, sr., died in Ver mont, leaving a will in which he gave to his son. Theophllus Crawford, Jr., and wife a considerable estate In Dubuque, for their use and Income during their lives. The Junior Crawford died in 1877 and the wife in 18S9. In the meantime portions of the land hsd beefi sold for taxes and otherwise, and there had been many com plications, so that a number of sulls were commenced by the heirs and grantors in regard to the final disposition of the prop erty and Its proceeds. These cases were affirmed with some modifications and a final settlement ordered, but the compli cations were many and unusual. Court Decisions. The following were the decisions of the supreme court today: C. H. E. Boardman. appellant, against Louis Drach Construction Co., Marshall county, Judge Burnhara; affirmed, opinion by Deemer. William Ohlrogg against District Court. Worth county. Judge Smith; certiorari, dismissed. John Llndebaum against Marv E. Coale, appellant, Hamilton county, Judge Rich ard; dismissed by the court.

The railroad commissioners of Iowa have been asked to order that the Rock Island Railroad company shall stop Its fast Da kota train at Shellsburg, Benton county, and not leave the town off Its list of stop ping places.
