Hsmi Stlrrlaa; Career.
Amort the esteemed and venerated resi
dents of Council Bluffs Is Colonel Wil
liam N. fpenny, a splendid type of the
American cltlten and soldier, and of that
make of men that have bullded up the west
and whose clean record as a soldier, public
officer, partisan and cltlsen la a standing
refutation to the often repeated assertion
that no good can come of a politician.
Colonel W. N. Denny, the son of William
and Catherine Denny, natives of Kentucky,
was born May 12, 1831, at Brucevllle, Ind.
In 185S the family' removed to Vlncennes,
where the elder Denny at once took a
prominent part tn the religious, social and
political life of that sePtlon. Colonel Denny
received his early education at the old
Vlncennes university, and early took an
active ' part In the stirring political times
of that period, and was made deputy clerk
of that county.
He took up the profession of law, and
was about to engage In the active work of
that profession, with the most brilliant
opportunities opening out before him, when
there came from Washington that resonant
call for the nation to arm and offer up
every sacrifice of ambition and life for
country. Young Denny was one of the first
to respond to the call of President Lincoln,
and with hla father and brothers was ac
tive In enlisting the young men of the
county, himself bclns one of the first to
sign his name to the enlistment roll. Still
but a youth, he started to the front as a
first lieutenant, and served throughout the
war with distinction that won for him the
colonelcy of the Fifty-first Indiana volun
teer Infantry. In 1S63 he was urged to
accept a commission in the regular army,
but he refused the offer and returned to
Vlncennes to take up the work he had
laid down five years before. In 1(W7 he was
united. In marriage to Ellen K. Lemen of
Salem, 111., the sweetheart of hla war-time
daya, and whose cheering letters, urging
him onward and upward were the stimulus
of his gallantry and bravery, aa the knight
errant chivalry of old.
Recognizing his eminent worth. President
Grant in lfif, offered him the appointment
as postmaster at Vlncennes. He served In
that position for thirteen years, with the
same distinguished fidelity to duty that
had characterized his army life.
Naturally a leader In every undertaking
in which he engaged, he at once assumed a
front position in fne councils of the republi
can party of aouthern Indiana. He wrought
not for himself, but for the good of the
community, and the good of his country,
believing that Its best Interests lay through
the policies of the ' republican party. He
led without being conspicuous. Four great
qualities have been the distinguishing fea
tures of hla career, patriotism, unselfish
ness, retirement and, frankness. .
Klght children were born to Colonel and
Mrs. Denny, of whom only three daughters
are living. Colonel Denny haa for some
years, since his retirement from public
life, made his home with his daughters In
Council Bluffs, where they are engaged
In religious and literary work. The young-
cat, Mary - P. Denny, la associated with
"The Word and the Way," In special edi
torial work, and I a contributor to many
other publications.

Pnaejr Bank Dalldlng.
Claiming to own a half Interest in the
property, E. A. .Wlckham brought ault In
the district court yesterday to restrain the
Security Building company, T. Q. Turner,
Mra. J. W. vHannan, widow of the late
Charles R. Hannan, Charles, R. Hannan
Jr., and Hazel Hannan from proceeding
further with the remodelling at the build
ing at the ' corner of Main street and
Broadway. This is the building In which
the new bank to be established by Messrs.
Turner and Hannan Is to be located.
Mr. Wlckham also asks that he be decreed
to have a half Interest In the title to the
property and for an accounting of moneys
received and spent for the property since
Its alleged Joint purchase In August, 1D01.
The court Is further acked to. appoint a
receiver for' the Security Building com
pany In which the title to the property
In controversy Is vested
In the petition. It is set forth tlat Mr.
rt-cktiam and the late Charles R. Hannan,
who was said to be acting as the agent
for Mrs. Hannan, purchased the property
tn question from John Bereshelm and L.
F. Murphy, receivers for the defunct
banking firm of Officer' St Pusey. The
consideration was 13,100 of which 100
per cent, or $2,310. Was paid Jointly by
the two, each contributing, it la alleged,
half the amount. The balance of the
purchase price, It Is stated, was paid from
the proceeds of a $21,000 loan secured Im
mediately after the purchase of the
property.
The deed to the property was taken
out In the name of the Security Building
company, which, It la said, was organized
for the purpose. Mr. Wlckham allegea
that the late Mr. Hannan took posesslon
of the building, collected, the rents,
amounting to about $20,000 and refused to
make any accounting with him. Aa the
company, Mr. Wlckham allegea, never held
any meetings and kept no records, he
does not know the exact amount collected
for rents or the amount expended for
taxes and keeping the building in repair.
The National bank of St. Loals began
ault yesterday against Flicklnger Brothers,
a firm of attorneys, for $200, which It is
alleged was wrongfully withheld for serv
ices performed, from the amount collected
upon clalma against the Union Transfer
company in the bankruptcy proceedings
against the company. It la alleged that
certain notes were placed in the hands
of the defendants for collection with the
understanding that no expense should
attach . to the bank, and that a letter
stattnc the conditions upon which the
notes were placed tn the hands of the
defer.'nnt(- was sent with the notes. It la
alleged that $900.69 was collected as the
percentage due the bank upon the notes.
In the bankruptcy court and that the
defendants withheld $2C0 for their services.

VETERINARIANS OUT HOG CHOLftRA
Relief Care Haa Been Discovered for
Thla Disease.
AMES. May 29. (Special.) For years the
veterinarians of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and the different state
experiment stations have been trying to
find a practicable cure for hog cholera.
Their efforts have been successful and In
order to celebrate the event and to ar
range the many details in connection with
the preparation of the remedy on a com
mercial scale and get It before the farm
ers of the state. Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson and Chief of the Bureau of Anlm.il
Industry Dr. A. D. Melvln have called to
gether at Ames today a ten day congress
of the veterinarians of the corn belt states
to talk the matter over with the officials
of the bureau of animal industry. At this
meeting instruction In the process of ad
ministering the new remedy will be given
to the different state veterinarians and
meat inspectors. The process will be scat
tered throughout the afflicted states.
During the last fiscal year, of the 161,8(5
hogs slaughtered In the great packing cen
ters under government Inspection, over
19.329 were cholera suspects. This number
takes no accourft of the great amount of
damage done to Individual herds through
out the country every ' season. The pro
cess consists of the Injection of the blood
of an affected animal Into the circulation
of one not yet under the Influence, of the
disease. This must be combined with the
Injection of the serum of an animal al
ready immune. The production of a vac
cine by means of Infected blood Instead of
artificial culturea of the germ Is the basis
of the ire. These deductions were the
result of observations , of the action of the
disease upon hogs that had once been
through an attack. The method haa been
so successful that it la generally conceded
by prominent veterinarians that It will
completely rob the hog cholera scourge of
lta terrors.
For over six months the veterlnaians of
Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota and Nebraska
have been working in cooperation with the
federal authorities to determine to what
extent the process would prove of value
In practice. It now rests with the state
and government authorities to see that
thla process is efficiently carried out. At
the present meeting It will also be decided
whether thla cholera cure will be distri
buted by state or fed-ra1 authorities or
by private Individuals.
