DES MOINES, la.. Dec 22. (Special.)
Melvin H. Byera, for a number of years
adjutant general of Iowa, will be succeeded
the first of the year by CapUln William
H. Thrift of Dubuque. General Byers re
Ifned nd the charge was authorized to
day. General Byers. the retiring adjutant gen
eral, was a, soldier In an Iowa regiment
during the war of the rebellion, and was
for many years engaged In business In
Olenwood, Mills county. He became con
nected with the Glenwood military com
pany many years ago and always took an
active part In guard affairs. During the
administration of Governor Jackson, when
a controversy arose In the guard as to who
should be adjutant general and the bitter,
ness engendered promised to disrupt the
organisation. General Byers was selected
as a compromise, and He was given a dif
ficult task. He remained at tlje head of
the guard under Governor Shaw and had
upon his shoulders the responsibility for
equipping and sending to the front the four
Iowa regiment of the volunteers formed
out of the four guard regiments. After
the return of the regiment he reorganized
the guard, and he has continued in the
service to the present time. During his term
there has been great changes In the guard
and the annual appropriations have greatly
Increased and the national government
gives more liberally.
Captain William H. Thrift of Dubuque,
who Is to become head of the guard, la
probably the officer In the guard of longest
continuous service, or practically In con
tinuous service. He has been many years
at the head of the company at Dubuque
. and went with the company to Cuba. Cap
tain Thrift Is a native of Iowa and was
one of the first white persons to be bom
In what Is now Des Moines. His father was
an officer, located at old Fort Des Moines.
Captain Thrift also served In 'the civil war
with credit He has been connected with
the guard for many years, has never mixed
In politics and Is engaged In business In
Dubuque. If the selection had been left to
the members of the guard there Is very
little doubt that Captain Thrift, although
he is a strict disciplinarian, would have
been chosen
Will Remove Rattle Flag.
A committee of the department of Iowa,
Grand Army of the Republic, held a confer
ence with Governor Cummins today In the
matter of moving the Iowa battle flags.
These are In large air-tight cases on the
library floor of the state capltnl, but are so
located that they interfere with the proper
decoration of the capltol, which Is soon to
commence. It Is now proposed that they
be placed in niches on the first floor of the
capltol, and this will be done. The flags
are those carried by Iowa regiments In the
war of the rebellion and are In good condi
tion. Begin the Gaard Inspection.
Major Jerauld A. Olmsted, U. 8. A., re
tired, who represents the regular army In
detail with the state guards, received or
ders today from General Bates to make the !
regular army Inspection of all the guard '
companies of Iowa at once. He will, there- !
, fore, accompany General Prime, the state!
Inspector, on his" tour of the state, whlcn '
will take ten weeks, beginning January I '
A The work will be commenced at Newton.
Dobaon May Be Appointed.
Des Moines friends of former Secretary
of State G. L. Dobson have been asked to
assist In recommending him to President I
. Roosevelt for appointment to a place In the
oonsular service. On his retirement from
the office of secretary of state four years
go he was a candidate for appointment In
the consular service, and later became a
. candidate for postmaster of Des Moines.
He Is a resident of Des Moines, but last
summer moved to California, with expecta
tion he would remain.
Work for Good Roads.
The State college at Ames has been gath
ering data in regard to good roads and at
an early date a bulletin on the subject will
be published in which will be given the in
formation gathered and arranged by Profs.
Mnrston and McDonald. The bulletin will
give valuable Information as to how to
make good roads. At the Instance of the
professors named the assessors of the state
will be asked to obtain Information as to
.the travel over roads in Iowa and other
material.
Another Revolutionary Soldier.
Another soldier of the revolution has been
found In Iowa, or the grave of such a sol
dier. This is the grave of Nathan Winton,
. who lies burled in Mount Gllead cemetery.
Bait Creek township, Davis county. Some
years ago Investigation was made as to the
number of soldiers of the revolution who
had died and were burled in Iowa and the
names of five were found. These are on a
broase tablet In the Hall of History in
this city, placed there by the Sons of the
Revolution. Now one or two others have
been found. There seems to be very little
doubt that Winton was a soldier of the
,' revolution, as related on the modest slab
which marks his grave, curator Aldrlch
will investigate.
I Governor Cummins this afternoon heard
argument on account of an application for
requisition for taking Ed Williams to South
Dakota from Sioux City. County Attorney
Nichols from Elk Point asked for the
requisition and Williams appeared through
an attorney and resisted on the ground
there was nothing to show that he had
ever been In South Dakota. Williams was
found wounded In Sioux City soon after an
unsuccessful attempt was made to rob a
hermit near Jefferson, and the latter had
' shot his assailant. The governor reserved

GAME GOES TO W'ESLEYAtt BOYS
Hlghlnnd Park Loses by Technical
Decision.
Manager Cherrlngton of the Wesleyan
university bnsket ball team received word
Thursday afternoon from the Amateur Ath
letic union, stating that the disputed goal
made In the game between Highland Park
and Wesleyan should not count. This will
give the game to Wesleyan by a score of
3J to 31, while if the goal had counted the
score would have been 33 to $2 in favor of
Highland Park.
The dispute arose over a goal made by
a Highland Park man, which the umpire
declured should not count, as the man
fouled before throwing it. The referee over
ruled the decision of the umpire and the
goal was counted. This gave the game
to Highland Park. Wesleyan disputed the
scoie and tho question was pent to the
Amateur Athletic union to he decided. The
Amateur Athletic union decides all disputes

The latter game was arranged because
Sherrington played on the Omaha High
school team four years and the boys wish
rt try their luck agaLnt his new team.
