GEORGE LYTLE RECEIVES SEIIIEIiCE
OF FROM mm YEftRS 10 LIFE
Attorney for Lytle to Appeal Case to the Supreme Court and Asks
That Judgment be Suspended on Prisoner, Alleging that
Certain Parts of Criminal Code is Unconstitutional.
rm Wednesday's Daily. 1
At a session of tin district
Murt yesterday Judge Travis
passed sentence "ii (ieorge Lytic,
ibe. third man convicted of burg
lary by explosives of the jewelry
store, of Mike Tritsch at, Louis
ville September J9th last.
Lytle was eoiivicted liy a jury
a February -, and a motion for
a now trial tiled within three
days, and argued and submitted
to the . court today. Lytic
was taken to the court, room by
She, sheriff about 1:15 p. in., and
after listening to his attorney,
Ur. Urit I, for a time, the prisoner
was directed by Judge Travis to
stand up, and the Judge then in
formed Lytle that he bad been
ttonvicled by a jury after a fair
rial of the crime charged in the
information, and the convicted
man was then nsked if he had
anything to say why the sentence
f the court should not be passed
upon him. Lytle replied that he
was innocent of the crime of
which he had been convicted.
The eourt. then pronounced a
similar sentence to that passed
on Lytle's associates, Frank Mc
Cann and John Doud, namely,
that the prisoner should, be taken
fcn the penitentiary from the court
room, there to remain at hard
labor, Sundays and holidays ex
cepted, for a period of twenty
years, or during his natural life,
but not less than twenty years.
Lytle's attorney then tiled af
lidavils of poverty, alleging that
defendant bad no funds to meet
the expense of transcript, and he
desired to appeal the ease to the
supreme court, and moved the
court to reipiire the clerk of the
court to prepare a transcript at
the expense of the county. A
motion in arrest of judgment was
also filed setting forth that two
reasons existed why the court
sliould interfere and arrest its
judgment, the first being that
sections "0a and 50b of the
criminal code of Nebraska were
unconstitutional; the second rea
son was that section 50-2b of the
code is unconstitutional.
The story of the crime for
which Lytle and his companions i
were convicted is still fresh in
the minds of the Journal readers,
and no rood purpose could be
served by rehearsing it' again.
The entire stock of jewelry of Mr.
Tritsch was taken and was never
afterward recovered. The de
fendants had an impartial trial
before a learned judge and a con
scientious jury, but the chain of
circumstances about the accused
men was such that, no reasonable
man could come to any other con
elusion than that reached by the
jury in each ease.

We are so positive that our,
remedy will permanently relieve!
constipation, no matter how
chronic it may be, that we offer to
funiis'ti (he medicine at our ex
pense should it. fail to produce
sal isl'aelory results.
If is worse than useless to at
tempt to cure constipation with
cathartic drugs. Laxatives or
caltiarlics do much harm. They
cause ii reaction, irritate and
weaken the bowels and tend to
make constipation more chronic.
lVsides, their use becomes a
tfihil that, is dangerous.
Constipation is wired by a
weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the large intestine ur de
scending colon. To expect per
manent relief you must therefore
tone up ami strengthen these or
gans and restore them to
"healthier activity.
We want you to try itcxall Or
derlies on our recommendation.
They are exceedingly pleasant to
take, being eaten like candy, and
are ideal for children, delicate
persons, anil old folks, as well us
for the robust. They act directly
on the nerves and muscles of the
bowels. They apparently have a
neutral action on other associate
organs or glands. They do not
purge, cause excessive looseness,
nor create any inconvenience
whatever. They may be taken at
tiny time, day or night. They will
positively relieve chrome or
habitual const ipnlion, if not, of
surgical variety, and the myriads
of assoicate or dependent chronic
ailments, if taken with regularity
Tor a reasonable length of lime.
