Raptdlr an Pooslble.
John Brown, saloon crusader from Kan
aaa, la not tn contempt ff court by reason
of aotiTeylnE the Impression that he was
an attorney-st-law and entitled to prac
tice In the courta of the state of Iowa
This wos the derision of Judge Wheeler
In district court Saturday morning- In the
proceedlnirs brought by county Attorney
He and other attorneys against Brown.
Tha charges against Brown were as fol
lows: First. That ha maintained an office,
loading to which was a sign, reading "Heal
Instate and Law," thereby leading people
to believe he was a practicing lawyer.
Second. That he presented to the sheriff
notices in cases brought by himself wherein
t signed his own name aa attorney for
tha plaintiff.
Third. That he filed In the offlee of the
clerk of the district court a number of
petitions In which he elrncd himself as
'J. Brown, attorney for the plaintiff."
In handing down Ms fteclslon dismissing
tha charges of contempt Judge Wheeler
aid, that In his opinion the first ground
did not constitute contempt as any person
Could practice law In a restricted sense
and Brown, like any one else, had a right
to practice In the Justice courts. Regard
ing tha notices of suit filed with the
sheriff by Brown, Judge Wheeler said, that
while In a atrlct sense a man cannot ap
pear as attorney for himself, he has a
right to appear In hla own behalf and
tha act in this Instance did not place him
tn contempt of the court. The same ruling
applied to the filing of the petitions with
tha clerk of the court.
The first of the numerous saloon In
junction suits brought by Brown had been
set for next Monday, with the understand
ing that tha others would follow in order,
but "for tha convenience of the attorneys
interested. , an agreement was reached
yesterday whereby these cases would go
over for one week.
IMATHESOt SENTENCED FOB. TEAR
'Varices mm Appeal and is Released
Ball.
' In sentencing George Matheson. who
hot and seriously wounded former Dep
uty Sheriff J. C. Baker at Weston In
1S0I. to twelve months' Imprisonment In
tha county Jail yesterday. Judge Wheeler
aid to the young man: "You say the
hooting waa accidental, but the Jury has
arrived at a different conclusion. I can
not see how any twelve men could have
arrived at any other decision. I believe
you were guilty of a higher offense, but
the Jury has said otherwise and I must
follow its decision. It is your greatest
food fortune that you aid not commit
a crime that would have followed you
through tha remainder of your life. You
nay iiave committed the offense through
excitement, but I can never believe you
did it accidentally."
Young Matheson at the first trial wea
convicted of assault with Intent to com
mit murder and waa sentenced to eight
years in the penitentiary. He appealed
and the case was sent back for retrial,
when the Jury brought in a verdict of
assault with Intent to inflict great bodily
injury, the maximum penalty being twelve
months' Imprisonment in Jail. Matheson
averted going to Jail by filing a bond and
again appealing to tha supreme court.
Arthur Southwell, who attempted to
hoot Charles Hanklns and escaped with
being convicted of the lesser offense of
assault with Intent to Inflict great bodily
Injury, was sentenced to eleven months
tn the county Jail, he having already been
behind tha bars for a month.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES. June 18. (Special. Miss
Leah Spencer of Newcastle, Fa., appeared
in Judge McHenry's court room In the
district court yesterday to refute the claim
of litigants for her fathers Insurance
money that she was dead. A brother and
sister of her father brought suit to get
the Insurance money. They alleged that
the daughter had been dead for ten years.
No greater sensation could have been cre
ated than when she stood before them.
Now the attorneys for the brother and
sister of her father claim that anyway
she Is legally dead, because she had not
been heard from for ten years and will
continue the fight for the Insurance money.
The money amounts to Com), the amount
of a policy in the Ancient Order of United
Workmen. Miss Spencer formerly lived
with her psrents in Council Bluffs.
In 1893 st Council Bluffs Mrs. Spencer
obtained a divorce from her husband, Perry
Egbert Ppencer. and went to Newcastle
with her daughter. Spencer came to Des
Moines, where he died, and his brother
and sister here stsrted the suit to recover
the Insurance end establish the fact that
the daughter was dead. Attorneys for the
Ancient Order of t'nited Workmen searched
everywhere for the daughter and had given
up hope of finding her when she walked
Into the court room with her mother to
day. Attorneys representing the Insurance
order at once filed a motion to dismiss the
case. Judge McHenry indicated that he
would dismiss the case unless the plaintiffs
can establish that the girl Is an lmposter.
