JIAV YET GET ON THE TICKET
Democratic Township OfRoars Not to Bo
Denied Any Right ? .

\ iKlf t f \oinlnatliip : Convention
May lit * Itrnilcri-il Im-flri-llvi ; If

to the Auditor ,
The two democratic township candidates
will not be left off the otndal ballot If there
can ho discovered any means to prevent It.
The offices are minor ones , but Mr , Swearcn-
gen , candidate for justice of the peace , saya
he Is determined to be Just as persistent as
If his nomination was for the office of gov
ernor of the state. Paul Aylesworth , nom
inee for township trustee , nn olllco that pays
about $7.50 a year , announces with equal
vigor that It IB the principle of the thing
that Is compelling him to make a fight. They
do not think they should * uTcr ( on account of
a slight oversight on the part of the con
vention officers In falling to certify their
nomination to the county auditor within the
tlmo prescribed by law. Yesterday they ap
plied to the district court for n writ of man
damus to compel County Auditor Matthews
to place their namcn on the ballots. The
writ Is made returnable on Thursday and the
attorneys for the candidates resort that un
ices there arc objections filed with the clerk
of the courts before that time they will bo
entitled to the writ prayed for. The only
P rsou authorized to make these objections
Is County Attorney Saunders. and he had no
official notification of the application up to
last evening.
The democrats assert that the republican
auditor refused to file the certificates of the
two candidates when they were presented on
Tuesday , but this Is a mistake. The cer
tificates wcro filed but there was a positive
refusal to place them on the nlllclal ballot ,
for the reason that the law says the certifi
cates "shall be filed not sooner than sixty
days nor lets than twenty days prior to the
election. " On the face of It this appears to
bo mandatory , but there Is some doubt In ( lie
mind of Auditor Matthews. He Is Inclined
to glvo the candidates the benefit of the
doubt and will place their names on the
ticket If ho Is convinced tint ho Is not abso
lutely forbidden to do so , and for this reason
luIs anxious to have the matter Judicially
determined before the copy for the tickets
Is sent to the printer.
There Is some reason for believing that the
law Is directory rather than mandatory. The
Rcctl' n of the new code providing for the ill-
Ing of certificates of tax levies Is couched In
identically the same language , but the
supreme court has held In the case of Taylor
against McFadden , 8-lth Iowa , page 262 , that
this Is not mandatory , and that the auditor
must receive- the tax levies If presented
al'icr the period named In the law. U may ho
held that this case will apply to the one under
consideration when the court comes to hear
the arguments. The admission of the names
will not delay the printing of the tickets erIn
In any manner discommode the auditor , and
for this reason he Is very anxious to comply
with the wishes of the canJIdates.
The attorneys for the candidates say there
ore several other ways to secure the printIng -
Ing of the names on the ballots , and they
will be resorted to If the mandamus proceed
ings fall. One Is for the candidates to re
sign and create vacancies on the ticket. The
now law provides that In that case it shall
be the duty of the party committee to select
and certify the names to the auditor , and
that he shall have them printed on the
tickets. The law even permits , If the vacan
cies occur by death or otherwise , within eight
days before the election , the auditor to
destroy all of the printed ballots and print a
new set , with the names of the new candi
dates upon them.
Investigation yesterday showed that there
were several townships In the county where
the tame oversight has been made ,
MRS. SMITH I.KAVKS 111311 IIOMK.
Wife of R l.aliorrr DlMapiicarM for Xo
Apparent HUIINOII.
Mrs. H. R. Smith , about 25 years
of age , Is missing from her homo
on Twenty-fourth etrcet and Avenue G ,
since last Saturday noon , an.l her hus
band and friends have become greatly
alarmed. Smith Is a laborer , and as far as
cun be learned , lias lived very happily with
his wife. He has steady employment all
summer and has provided well for his home.
On Frlduy afternoon he gave his wife a small
amount of money for the ordinary household
expenses. On Saturday forenoon she epcnt
a portion of It and when she returned at
noon from her Saturday's shopping she still
had about ? 2.fiO. After dinner her husband
came up town leaving Iris wife busy about
her work. When he returned at supper
time the house was closed. Nothing was
thought of It until the hours passed along
Into evening and Smith began to make In
quiries among the neighbors. He then
learned that she was seen leaving the cot
tage shortly after noon , carrying a vallso
and going cist on Broadway. Investigation
disclosed tha fact that all of her best cloth
ing was gone. The only trace that Smith
or her f i lends could discover was obtained ut
a Droadway restaurant In the vicinity of the
Northwestern city depot , where she stopped
and purchased a pie SHuyJay evening.
Smith and his friends say that.there Is no
roison for the woman going away In the
manner she did. They fear she has become
suddenly unbalanced mentally and has wan
dered away. The police of both Council
Bluffs and Omaha were asked yesterday to
assist In locating her. The couple has no
children.

Yesterday was the anniversary of the bat
tle of Winchester , the fight that gave Gen
eral Sheridan the chance to make his fa
mous ride from Winchester to the battlefield
at Cedar creek , twenty miles away. Major
W. H. Spera of this city Is one of the few
survivors of Sheridan's staff and mute the
famous darh from Winchester with the gen
eral. Yesterday he was the center of an ani
mated group of old soldiers and spent sev
eral hours In detailing his personal experi
ences on the battlefield on that October day
thirty-three years go. Every Incident con
nected with the day was vividly fresh In his
mind , and ho entertained his audience In a
highly satisfactory manner. Mr. Spera was
major of the Seventeenth Pennsylvania
cavalry and commanded Sherldin's escort.
In his narrative of the ride and the great
victory that marked Its close he shatters
several of the cherished superstitions that
have become classic In war literature , espe
cially the one that describes the gallant cav
alry commander stopping the hordes of
routed soldiers who were ficelng from Early's
victorious army and shouting , "Face the
other way , boys ! Face the other way ! " It
was all that Sheridan and hU escort could dote
to make their way along the pike In the
face of the advancing columns of the re
treating federal troops , but he says Sheri
dan did rise In his stirrups several times
tnd use some vigorous EnglMi In telling
the boys not to get too far In the rear'when
the battle was being fought. He Is In
clined to sustain Thomas Duchanan Reed's
poetical description of Sheridan's horse , the
famous black charger , "Ulonza , " which he
dcsclbcs as a big , ugly , vicious brute that
nobody but Sheridan could ride.
"Sheridan was notoriously profane , " said
Major Spera yesterday , "and I never saw
so much real good come from a genuine up
and down orthodox cussing IR came from
his appeals to the men to form line nnd
wall until he got hie promised 'twist' on
the enemy. He didn't spare his cuss words ,
but poured them out right and left. They
had an electrical effect upon the crowd. "
As a coincidence Major Spera received
yesterday copies of an eastern publication
contaViIng a lengthy account of his per
sonal experiences In the battle and on the
rise. Ho prepared the account some tlmo
ago and offered It for publication. The re
ceipt of the copies was the first Intimation
he had received that It was considered avail
able by the eastern editor.
Hi-puty Sheriff llakor Hi-torn * .
Deputy Sheriff liaker returned yesterday
from Anamosa , where he went to assist the
warden In returning""Doe" Hutlcr , the Grls-
weld bank robber , to the penitentiary after
he had given bin testimony In the McIIugh
ease. Haker was somewhat surprised to find
a couple of Council Bluffs men doing time
In the prison. They were WlllHm Mackaben ,
commonly known hero as Shustcr , and a
young man named Sorrenson. They had
been tramping In the eastern part of the
state and had been convicted for breaking
Into a building. They were serving three-
year sentences for burglary. While waiting
for the "train at Marion the officers had to
stay all night , and when they went to the
county jail to deposit their prisoner for fiafe
keeping Uaker found a young man In JaJl
there named Dungan , who was well known
In Council lilufts a year or two ago. He was
awaiting trial on a charge of burglary. While
hero young Dungan was connected with a
hardware store.
Tore IIIH Koot Off ,
Charles Green , a young farmer living on
Keg creelc seven miles from the city , lost
a foot yesterday by the accidental discharge
j of a shotgun. The weapon was loaded and
! was hanging on the wall In the house , muz-
I zlo downward. A large hawk came In the
I vicinity of the house and young Green made
i a quick movement to get the gun. In taking
1 It from the nail It was discharged. The load
| of shot grazed his knee cap and struck
squarely In the top of his foot , tearing it to
pieces. The young man had a narrow es
cape from bleeding to death before a phy
sician could be secured.

A Far KiiMU-rn Plan of UrliikliiK With
out ( icttlii * ; Drank.
The glasses were going round , relates the
Louisville Courier-Journal , when the man
who had been in the navy spoke : "Walt a
minute , boys. We've hid several. Let me
give you a tip that I learned when I was on
the China station. You are pretty good drink
ers , you Kentucky bojs. and you can hold
your own with anybody east , west or north
who tries to put you under the table. Hut
unless you carry out my plan don't you ever
etack yourselves up against an Englishman ,
and especially an army or navy officer. You
could knock them out on whisky , but they
don't drink It , except In the shape of smoky
Scotch and Irish abominations. Hut with
champagne , Hurgundy , claret , ale , sherry ,
Madeira , port , pulque In Mexico , sakl In
China , palm liquor In Africa , bamboos and
shandygaff In India , steep clear of them
tmt U , unless you hive the good luck to
meet a certain little yellow-faced , wizened
creole from Louisiana whoso recipe Is passed
around the mess table of United States men-
of-war to this day. It started In the old
days when the British olllccrs always had
the pleasure of mislaying their American
guests or hosts whenever two ships met on
foreign stations. Then that little yellow
devil came along with h's ' trick and the
ITiigllslimaii has never since come out better
than second In any drinking bout. The
secret ? Olive oil. One wlncglassful bcforo
the fun beglnn , and If possible another later
on , and you can keep your wit and legs
throughout the dampcot evening. I suppose
ono of two things happens. Either the oil
coats the stomach and keeps the alcohol
from being absorbed by the system or elao
It floats on top and keeps the fumen from
rising to the brain. Hut you'll have to ask
the medlclno men about that. All I know
Is Its practical result , and that has enabled
us Yankee Doodles to go homo cheerful and
clear-headed many an evening when our
foreign cousins were speechless. "

Dr. Prancls n. Packard writes In the
Journal of the American Medical association
that the first medical degree granted in New
England was an honorary one. bestowed on
Daniel Turner of Connecticut by Yale col
lege in 3720. As this was Intended as a
token of gratitude for Dr. Turner's liberal
gifts to the college and not as a recognition
of any particular fitness on his part to
practice medicine a wit of the time lr >

"The crowning exccllpnce of Major Glnter'o
character , " says the Ilaltlmore Sun , "that
which gave It at onto Its strength and beauty ,
was the absolute supremacy of the moral
sentiments. One of his oldest friends re
marked the other day' that he never heard
him utter a profarie or an unchaste wort.
Another trnlt , whlch-nftne who knew.'him can
ever forget , was an Inexorable sense'of duty ,
which allowed no concession to Indolence or
st-lf-lndulgccce , no discrimination between
onn class of duties and another , which knew
no grades In obligations. It did not spend It
self ; in occasional' acts -conspicuous
heroism to duties -with which even , com
mon nature may be inspired , but It was
evidenced equally In an unvaried attention
to the dry routine exactions of dally life. "
Alexander Ramsay of St. Paul , now 82
years of age , who was appointed by President
Zachary Taylor first governor of Minnesota ,
is still prominent in all great public move
ments , and speaks with nearly as much
energy anil forceas he did in his younger
days. It is related of him that when he first
vlilted the territory In Ills ofllclal capacity
he refused to allow the military commandant
there to fire a salute In his honor. "Very
well , " said the commandant , "but let me
call out the guard to receive you. "
"Don't do It , " replied Ramsay ; "I don't
want arjy fuss made about my being here. "
"As you wish , governor , " said the ccm-
inandant. "but I want to do something to
show a proper respect to the chief executive
of this territory. Is there anything that you
would suggest or desire ? "
"Yes , " said Ramsay , "If you have a I ttlo
good whisky about the post I II take a tup

was only set nt rest when a statement WHS

A JOYFUL HQTHEll OF CEELD11EN.
Mrs. Pinkham Declares that In the Light of Mod
ern Science no Woman Need Despair.
There arc many curable causes for stcril-
ity in women. One of the most common
is general debility , accompanied by a
peculiar condition of the blood.
Care and tonic treatment of the fe-
iale organs relieve more cases of sup
posed incurable barrenness thttn any
other known method. This is why
i Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound -
pound has effected so many cures ;
its tonic properties are directed es
pecially to the nerves which supply
the uterine system. Among other
causes for sterility or barrenness
are displacements of the womb.
These displacements ure caused by
lack of strength in the ligaments
supporting the womb and the ovaries ; restore -
' store these , and thu diilictilty ceases , ' Here ,
again , the Vegetable Compound works won
ders. Sec Mrs , Lytle's letter , which follows
. in this column. Go to the root of the matter ,
restore the strength of the nerves and the tone of the parts , and nature
will do the rest. Nature has no better ally than this Compound , made of
her own healing nnd restoring herbs.
Write freely aufl fully to Mrs. Pinkham. Her address is Iiynn , Mass. She
will tell you , free pf charge , the cause of your trouble and what course to take.
Uelieve me , uuderoright conditions , you have a fair chance to become the joy
ful mother of'children. The woman whose letter is here published certainly
thinks so : ,
"I am more than proud of Lydia T3. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound , and
cannot find wtmltxto express the good it has done me , J was troubled very
badly with the' Iducorrhuiii and hevere womb pains. From the time J wa's
married , in li | ' -iintil , , ' last year , I was under the doctor's caro. We had no
children. I have b'ad nearly every doctor in Jersey City , and have been to Ilelvin
Hospital , but allto no avail. I saw Mrs. Pinkham's advertisement 5n the
paper , and havti ! ied five bottles of her medicine. It has done more for mo
than all the do'C0'rs I ever had. It has stopped my pains and lias brought mo
a. line little girl I have been well ever since my baby was born. I heartily
recommend Mrs. Pinkham's medicine to till women suffering from sterility. "
