Seven were given sentences at hard labor in the penitentlary at Fort Madison, while two escaped with short jail terms. It was noticeable that the seven who recelved penitentiary sen- tences are all young men, mere youths in fact, and Judge Wheeler In passing - tence took occasion to give them some sound advice as to their conduct while in prison and he expressed the hope tbat on their release they would endeavor to lead a life that would entitle them to respect and which would overshadow the past. ‘Those sentenced were: Dave Kinney, for brutally assaulting Abram Snyder, an aged Hebrew, with intent to rob him, two years in the penitentiary; Gordon Bowers and Bert Owens, for.breaking the front window of Lapidus’ pawnshop on Broad- way and stealing several revolvers and other articles, one year each in the penl- tentl tor maliclously tearing down and destroylng trolley wires of the motor company in the Driving park, one year in the penitentiary; Charles Shoemak: for breaking open a showcase In front of 8.

SENATE PASSES THE APPROPRIATIONS r Supply Bill Goes Through as It Came from the House and is Ready for the Governor. (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, April 10.—(Special.)—The senate this morning passed the omnibus appropriation bill for the state institu- tlons just as it came from the house. The bill carries $716,677.51. An effort was made by Lewls to strike out appropriations for land at varfous state institutions, ag- gregating $129,000, but this failed. The land provided for is $10,000 at Davenport, $25,000 at Glenwood, $25,000 at Mount Pleasant, $39,000 at Independence and $30,- 000 at Clarinda. The bill-was passed unan- imously. This gives the State Board of Control all the money actually needed for the conduct of the various penal, charitable and correctional institutions of the state. The bill to appropriate $37,000 for a stock pavilion at the state falr grounds in Des Moincs was passed, after much dls- cussion and an effort to reduce the amount. The sifting committee went to Work on the bills in the hands of the senate and rearranged the calendar. An effort was made to secure consideration of a bill with- out such reference, but it was finally sent to the sifting committee and from this time on no bills will be considered that are not recommended by the sifting commit- tee unless they are appropriation bills. Two More Pardons. The senate took up pardon matters again in the afternoon for a short time. The resolution for a pardon for Otto Otten bad been indefinitely postponed, but was taken up and passed, also the resolution for a pardon for John Ballew. This disposes of all the pardon cases. The senate held a night session and passed the following bills: Appropriating $625,000 for completing the state capitol, to be expended in four years; to make it a felony to escape from the penitentiary stone quarry, to appropriate money for a roadway at Glenwood, bill to provide for the expenses of maintaining quarantine and a bill to correct the law in regard to bail for treason. The bill to consolidate traveling libra- ries and the state library commission was passed. House Clearing the Calendar. ‘The house bad a calendar of only thirty- one bille and half of them were taken off before noon today, thus indicating that the house will ge through with its business promptly. A resolution was passed In memory of the late William H. Chamberlain of Bu- ‘chlnln county. A resolution to have the clerks remain three days after the eession is ended was paseed. The sergeant-at-arms and doorkeepers were, by resolution, pre ented with their badges. The following bills were passed: To al- low railroad companies to condemn land for depot grounds before the completion of the roads. ¥ 2 To make it & crime for anyone other than a physiclan to procure for any minor, ha- bitual drunkard or ome who has taken a cure for drunkenness any intoxicating lig- {uors. This is to shut off petty blackmall- ing against saloon men, said to be indulged in sometimes. To require county superintendents to make complete’ reports on county normal institutes and have the same published. To allow cities and towns to vote taxes in ald of town halls, library bulldings and eimilar public improvements. To raise the age limit for students at the school for the deaf to 25 years. The pres ent limit at the Council Bluffs school Is 21 years and It 1s often desirable that stu. dents should remain longer and complete their studies. To provide for a minimum number of guards at the penitentiaries—forty-two at Aanamosa and forty-five at Fort Madison. To permit county attorneys to select thelr own deputies. A Dill to change the law in regard to bringing diseased animals into the state was defeated by a close vote. It removed the loophole of the person knowingly bring- ing such animals into the state. The new railroad bond bill passed by the senate yesterday was received tn the house and referred to the rallroad committee. Conferees were appolnted on the bill to legajize instruments which have been de- tectively acknowledged. A resolution which had passed the senate endorsing the bill in congress to remedy the interetate commerce law was passed by the house. A bill to provide for the disposition of pension money of inmates of the Soldiers' home was passed.

The important case decided today was that of the State against Mar- garet Hossack, from Warren county. She was convicted of the murder of her hus- band and is in prison on a-life sentence. The evidence was entirely circumstantial, The case created much excitement at the Alme, as the family are rich and well re- spected. Local feeling ran high, agalnst Mrs. Hossack at the time of the trial. The lower court erred in admitting certain ex- pert evidence In relation to certain hairs which it was alleged were taken from an axe found in the barn the next day after the murder and which were declared to be halrs from the head of the murdered man. fon Wiillam G.
