The red-hot streak which he made on the ground from the scene of the alleged hold-up to the Council Blurts city Jail has not yet cooled off. He charged the pair with attempted highway robbery , and when they drove Into the city last night they were nabbed by Officer Wler at the corner of High street and Seventeenth avenue and deposited behind the Iron bars.

This Is to certify that I was a sufferer from rheumatism for over a year. My right wrist was badly swollen and so painful I could not bear on it at all. I tried various remedies without avail until three months ago , when on looking over the Chicago .Herald I saw the advertisement of Munyon's Rheumatism Cure and determined to try It. The result surpasses all belief. I Improved Immediately , and after the use of two bottles tles I was completely cured. JOHN F. MORRISON , 2303 Leavenworth. Omaha , May 9 , 1895. RHEUMATISM CURED.
