In the matter of the application for the appointment of a receiver in the sult of O. F. Asmussen of Des Moines against Michael Dalley, Judge Wheeler yesterday held that the plaintiff had failed to show that a part- nership as claimed existod and denled the request. however, on application of the plaintiff, appointed John Batles, former chiet of the fire department of this city, as guardian for Dalley, who was recently ad- judged ineane by the commissioners. As- mussen advarced Dalley nearly $2,000 to stock and operate a farm near this city owned by the Everett estate. When Dalley was adjudged insane Asmussen decided it was necessary to take some steps to In- sure the return of the money he had ad- vanced. Plumbing and heating. Bixby & Son.

Rep. resentatives of the motor company and number of others intercsted in the attempt were present. Owing to the seine, which a new one, not befng properly weighted with lead the attempt was a dismal failure and the haul only brought to light five gars and one bass, all of which were “grilled” u the meshes. The gars were destroyed nd the bass returned to the lake. When the men were bringing the net to ‘he surface Deputy Warden Brown, who was anticipating a big haul of the maraud- ing class of fish, excitedly exclaimed, boys, you will see the greatest sight you ever saw.” When the net came up with | only six fish, and they simply entagled by glills in the meshes, his disappoint- ment was keen. Another attempt to seine the lake at another point will be made Mon~ day. Another Heatin The first heating stove given by Willlam | Welch to his coal customers was awarded to the Christian home.

ESTATE OFFICIALS FILE THEIR BONDS | | New Conl Find Which in the Farth Yet Been Found in Towa Up to Date. | D County, West It Has | (From a Staff Correspundent.) DES MOINES, Jan. 3.—(Special.)—Iowa has another case of a poor child, blind and deaf, growing up In neglect, unable to find | any public charity to care for her—another Helen Kellar or Linnie Haguewood. Little Miss Stein, 6 years old, was brought to a sanitarium In Des Moines a few days ago | to be examined. The child’s mother had been told that possibly the little one could be cured of her deafness at least, but ex- | amination was made ond the doctors reached the conclusion that nothing could | be done. It was at first thetight the deaf- nees was due to some brain pressure which might be relleved by an operation. This diagnosis was not confirmed by the sur- geons here. The attention of the State Board of Control was called to the Knox- ville child by the fact that Chalrman Cow- nic was on the train when the child and Its mother were coming to Des Molnes. He became interested in the cese and with an- | other passenger he passed the hat and ee- | cured $14 to give to the mother. He learned that the mother is poor and that her hus. vand had deserted her and she takes in washing for a living. As a matter of course the child is neglected. He made investi tion as to whether or not there was shy place the stats could care for the unfortu- nate little one. The state cares for the blind and the deaf, but has no provision for one who is both. Linnie Haguewood, | for whom the legislature makes appropria- tions, is heing educated into a cuitured and self-supporting young woman. She was taken in at the school at Vinton only after private charity had raised a fand and her home county afterwerds gavéd her support and a spacial attendant. perintendent McCune of the Vinton | School for the Blind suggests that the child be sent to the Perkins institute at Bcston, but that would require a special fund. Mr. Cownfe s desirous that the people of lowa #hould know the facts and take some ac- | tlon. The education of the child should be coiamenced at once, as she s nearly 6 years old. Mr. Cownie recalled that in Col- | orado, where the blind eand deaf schools | are together, they are educating at state | expense a child both deaf and blind and it 1s making progress. | | It le suggested that the people raise a | tund for the employmant of an attendant ! and have the child cared for and educated. There 18 no other way of doing so now as Filing Thelr Bon New state officials and those whose terms begin anew have been flling their bonds today. The new state auditor filed a fidelity | bond of $100,000 and his deputy and insur- ance clerk each $25,000 bonds. The tre: urer of state filed a new $500,000 bond and | his deputy one of $100,000, both person ' bonds. An arrangement has been entered into which will change the rule in regard to banks designated as state depositories. The state executive council will® here- after require of them that they shall formally pass a resolution taking upon the banks the full responsibility and shall make application by the president and cashier and the directory board. At the same time a record will be kept of these matters, as never before. All the state's money is kept either in the treasury or in Des Motnes banks. New Coal Fi Des Molnes capitalists have uncovered a veln' of coal in Dallas county in a field hitherto unknown. This lies northwest of | De Soto and southwest of Adel. A vein from three to three and a half feet thick of good coal has been found, almost crop- ping out, as the discovery was made at a depth of about sixty feet. They propose opening a mine and it is probable tha: the Milwaukee railroad will construct a spur to the mine. This coal fleld is the farthest west of any discovered and is probably not very large.

Governor A General Josiah Given, who a year ago re- tired from the supreme bench, was today appointed by Governor Cummins a district judge to succeed the late Judge Holmes of this city.
