WINDUP OF THE CARNIVAL Weather Man Ohanges His Mind and Dishes Up a Fine Brand CROWDS ARE A LITTLE LATE ASSEMBLING However, Are Packed with the Merry Makers Late in the Weather conditions yesterday 414 not look propitious for the closing day of the street falr and carnival, but the weather clerk called the raln off about noon and the sun commenced to shine and the gloomy looks on the faces of the man- agers of the great show gave place to smiles. The crowd was a little slow in gathering in the early part of the afternoon, but by 4 o'clock the grounds literally swarmed with children. The attendance in the evening was as large If not larger than on Thurs- day night, the record-breaker of the week. President Saerle of the carnival committee stated last night that the attendance for the week was greatly in excess of that for last year. Although It was the last night the crowd was most orderly and there were no com- plaints. Every one seemed out for a good time and evidently found it During the afternoon performance Im- hoft, the bicycle rider, came near meeting with & serious accident., After completing the descent of the high inciine the tire came oft his front wheel and Imhoft was thrown along the pavement for a distance of twenty feet or more. His face and body were badly brulsed, but his injuries are not serious. NOLAN DIES FROM LOCKJAW Injury at First C dered Trivial mnd at One Time Was Con- ered Healed, Charles Nolan dled yesterday afternoon at his home, 1201 Fifth avenue, from lock- jaw. His death was indirectly due to the flood of two weeks ago. The day following the heavy rain Nolan atarted to clean off the mud from the side- walk in front of his residence, which had been swept over it by the overflow from Indian creek. He was in his bare feet and in some maner slipped &nd fell. In falling the big toe of his right foot became wedged between two planks of the sidewalk and the nall was torn off. The injury, while painful, was not con- sidered merious or dangerous, and, in fact, last Thursday morning the injury was com- pletely healed. Thursday night, however, signs of Jockjaw commenced to make their appearance and despite all that medical #kill could do resulted in Nolan's death yesterday afternoon. That lockjaw did not set in until two weeks after the injury is considered by physiclans as something very anusual. Mr. Nolan was §6 years of and s survived by his wife. He had been in the employ of the Puliman Car company for fitteen years. He was a native of Ireland and came to this country in 1875. No ar- rangements have been made as yet for the funeral.

TITLE DEAN OF JUNIOR DEPARTMENT | | Surveyors Out for Still Another New | Lime trom Des Molnes to Green- field, Supposed to De Internrban, (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Sept. 12.—(Special.)—The board of trustees of the State college held an_important fon at Ames yesterday and attended to detall work uecessary at | the opening of the fall term of the college. { The most important matter was to fix the status of Prof. E. W. Stanton, formerly | acting president. Before the death of Dr. Beardshear, Prof. Stanton was secretary of the board, and as such virtually kept the records of the college and had personal | supervision of the finances, and he was also professor of mathematics, a position he had held for many years. While act- ing president he gave up both these places. Yesterday the board restored him to both places, and In addition, in view of his em- inent services to the college, he was made | dean of the junior department. This latter is a new place created at this meeting. It | will be one of greater dignity and fmport- ance than Prof. Stanton's former chalr alone. As such dean he will be practically an assistant to the president, Dr. Storms, and have virtual charge of the entire work in the first two years of the college life of the students. Thero was also an adjust- ment of the salaries of the faculty and provision made for fitting out the addition to the new agricultural hall with furniture, otc. Members of the board report the col- lege as starting off this year with brighter prospects than ever before. New Bank Call is Out. All the banks of Towa will report thelr condition as of September 9 under calls issued by the comptroller of the currency and the auditor of state. Mystery of New Survey. Engineer B. Schreiner of this city, who surveyed the Cherry route from Winterset to Greenfleld for a right of way for a rail- road, which was afterwards sold to the Rock Island and abandoned, is again en- gaged In making a survey across the coun- try to Greenfleld, and there is much mys- tery as to what it means. The Rock Island abandoned the right of way in large part and has secured new right of way and is now engaged in the work of actual con- struction of the road. Now a surveying party is making still another survey. It is learned that Mr. Cherry, the projector of the line, is spending his time in Greenfleld and Winterset and that there are indica- tions that a new Interurban is planned to run between the two towns and to con- nect with the system in Des Moines. State Fair Premi Becretary Simpson of the state falr has just completed sending out the warrants for the premiums at the state fair recently held and every prize winner has now been pald. The work has been completed earlier than usual and the books closed up more promptly than ever before. The total of premiums pald was $23,837.22, which is larger than ever before, the chief increase being in the live stock. Troops Soonm to Come, A squadron of four troops of cavalry will report at the Des Moines army post on November 1, according to orders that have been issued by the War department at Washington. The troops will contain fifty to seventy men at first and later will be recruited to the full strength of 112. The particular troops that will be ordered to report have not been designated. The post eventually will accommodate a full regi- ment of men and there is a report that the post will be enlarged so as to accommodate also a regiment of artillery. SULLIVAN TALKS Demoeratic Ci IN IOWA date for Govermor Opens’ Campaign in Hawk- eye State, DENISON, Ia., Sept. 12.—Hon. Jerry Sul- livan, the democratic candidate for gov- ernor, was greeted by a good-sized crowd here this afternoon when he delivered his first formal address of the campalgn. The address had been carefully prepared and dealt almost entirely with the tarift and trust questions. Govermor Cummins was taken severely to task for not stand- ing for his former attitude on the tariff question, and addresses delivered by the governor a year ago and in 131 were quoted from to show that he had changed his position. Mr. Sullivan's address was devoted largely to a denunclation of the laws en- acted by the republican party in regu- lating tarift duties. He declared tarift is a “tribute levied upon thrift and industry to support and maintain a few in wealth and idleness. A Upon the financial question he said: They say to you that the money question 18 settled and wish to keep from your mind | all”reference to it It may and may not be settied, depending upon the point of view from which you view it. The democracy' ever has been and ever will be in favor of a stable and sound cur- [rency. It is as much opposed to a trust in money as it is to a trust in the products of labor. Of what value would your land be If it were not for the medium of ex- change? Prices will be enhanced, busine: developed, progress made in a | the medium of exchange keeps pmce with | the growth and deve'opment of Industries and trade. This has ever been the policy | of the democratic party, and ever will be. {MORE SOLDIERS ARE. NEEDED Recruiting Stations Are to Be Opened in Many Towns of Tows.

LEADS STRANGE DOUBLE LIFE London Mechanio Keeps Two Families Within Quarter Mile of Each Oth MAINTAINS DUAL ROLE FOR FIVE YEARS Nelther of Wives Nor His Acquainmt- ances Suspect Anything Out of the Ordinary During All of that Time, (Copyright, 108, by Preas Publishing Co.) LONDON, Bept. 12.—(New York World Ct blegram—8pecial Telegram.)—One of the most amazing cases of double life ever in- vestigated has just been laid bare before the London recorder, where Willlam Har- vey, a working carpenter, was charged with bigamy, having wedded five years ago a girl named Mary Dentry, Ms wife being alive. Harvey, after a long courtship, won the #irl, who is 12 years his junior, by explain- ing that he was a widower, with a grown up son and daughter, and that if he married again he would lose certaln properties. Therefore the girl was persuaded to keep the union a secret. They lived in a room less than a quarter of a mile from Harvey's legitimate home, to which he returned every night at 10:30 sharp, as he said, to prevent his son and daughter becoming suspicious. For five years this arrangement lasted. He had three children by the Dentry girl and visited her every evening, walking out with them in the neighborhood and con- stantly taking the children to play in the park close by, where they might at any time meet his other famlily, but he never raised the slightest Buspicion in the minds of either woman. The success of the deception is all the more remarkable by reason of his very Iimited resources, his second wife having to supplement his pay by her own work. When one of his children by the Dentry girl died he became less regular in his devotion, and last July, after several weeks' absence, she wrote fmploring.him to return and signing the letter “yofir loving wife.” This letter fell Into the real wife's hands. Harvey vol- untarily confessed and gave himself up. The recorder, seelng he had repented and tried to make umends for his treatment of both women, and that they were 80 strongly attached to him, sentenced him to only one day imprisonment.

The shoemaker, Canal, is known In Parls where he has recited verses of his own composition at literary gatherings in the Latin quarter.

The original cause for the summons sent to the cabinet at this unusual period of the year was the discussion of Colonlal Secre- tary Chamberlain's fiscal proposal and the preparation of Premler Balfour's promised pronouncement upon that subject. Since then the fiscal agitation has become of al- most secondary Interest, intense feeling having been aroused by the South African War commission report, in which public sentiment Is also deeply exercised. Such a staunch supporter of the govern- ment as the Pall Mall Gazette warns the cabinet that it must take action to remedy the scandals revealed by the committee, while the Times backed up by the Liberal press, demands greater British initiative in putting an end to the massacres in Mace- donla. In this connection it is sald Mr. Balfour will see King Edward before meot- Ing his colleagues on Monday. The king has been taking an active interest in the Balkan situation and the interview may re- sult In some stronger attitude on the part of the government. It 1s announced that by the middle of next week the official papers showing the resuits of the government's investigation of Great Britain's fiscal status will be pub- lished. EMPEROR AS ART CRITIC Calls Plcture in n Abominable Thing Presence the Artist, — BERLIN, Sept. 12—The Prussian cabinet order of Wednesday, taking the National gallery from the control of the Berlin mu- nicipality and placing it under the ministry of public instruction, is badly recelved by artists and the city authorities. The order is ascribed to the initiative of Emperor Willlam, whose opinion of what ought to go Into the gallery has several times diverged from that of the municipal art commission and Herr von Schudi, di- rector of the gallery. For instance, the commission recently bought Kampf's “Two Sisters” of this sea- son's academy. What the emperor thought of that work is related by Kampf, who, the principal commissioner in charge of the academy’s exhibit, showed the emperor around. ‘“Who painted this abominable thing?' in- quired the emperor, stopping in front of the “Two Bisters."” “I did, your majesty,” replied Herr Kampf. Director von Tschudi wanted the gallery to have a Whistler and had arranged to buy his “Nocturne No. 3 St. Marks,” but the clty commission In this case refused to support Herr von Tschudi, because, It s sald, the emperor suggested that the ple- ture was not needed.
