HOTEL MAN UNDER ARREST
0 large is Made that He Set Fire to His
Owi Building at McOUlUnd.
RELEASE! LATER BY THE AUTHORITIES
!fo One Ready to File Formal Cam
plaint Aaalast Illm Bloodhoaads
Fnralah Clae Which Leads
to the Arrest.
Arthur Ellsworth, owner of the new two
story frame hotel building In McClelland,
an attempt to burn which was made early
Wednesday morning, was arrested shortly
after midnight Wednesday by Deputy
Sheriff McCaffery. Ellsworth was brought
to this city and lodged In the county Jail,
but as no one appeared to file any charge
against him he was released yesterday
afternoon.
When the cltisens of McClelland, which
Is a new town on the line of the Oreat
Western railroad, learned of the attempt to
burn the hotel, they raised a fund and aent
for R. N. Fulton and his bloodhounds from
Beatrice and later In the ay telephoned to
the nherlff'e office and requested that an
officer be sent there. In response to the
request Deputy McCaffery was detailed on
the case.
It devolved that the cltlxen of McClel
land suspected Ellsworth as being the
would-be Incendiary. The only evidence
they had, however, was the fact that tracks
showed where a buggy had been driven Into
a field southeast of town and footprints led
from the place toward the hotel. The blood
hounds, on reaching McClelland late
Wednesday night, were given the scent
from one of Ellsworth's shoes. After circ
ling around the hotel a few times the dogs
followed the trail through the field to the
point where the buggy had been driven
and then back to the hotel. The buggy.
It la said, had been previously Identified aa
being the property of Ellsworth,
Ellsworth, on being taken Into custody,
was Indignant and etoutly . denied the
charge against him. He denied, It Is said,
having any Insurance on the building, but
this statement was contradicted by Wil
liam Arnd, former county treasurer and
president of the bank In McClelland. Mr.
Arnd said his bank had a 84O0 mortgage on
the hotel and that he understood the build
ing was Insured.
The attempt to burn the building was
carefully planned and but for the timely
discovery would probably have succeeded.
A large Jar, filled with kerosene, contain
ing a piece of burlap, was set on the roof
and Ignited. It Is presumed the would-be
Incendiary expected that the heat would
burst the Jar and thus let the burning oil
spread over the roof. The blase from the
burning burlap attracted the attention of
several of the cltisens, who succeeded In
extinguishing It before any damage was
done.

DES MOJNES, Dec. 8. (Special.)
Charles F. Baylor of this city, who has
been unde. Secretary Wilson, the speclsl
expert of -.he Agricultural department on
the beet sugar Industry In the United
States, Is preparing his annual report to
the department, covering beet sugar sta
tlstlcs for the past year. Mr. Baylor will
show the enormous Incresse In beet sugar
production In the United States in the past
eight years. When Secretary Wilson took
charge of the department and named for
the first time a beet sugar expert to work
continually In this line, there were only
seven or eight factories In actual operation
In the United State Now there are fifty
two factories, costing on an average nearly
1600,000 each, and tn the past eight years
at least $32,000,000 has been Invested In these
factories. There are a half dozen factories
to be erected next year, chiefly in Colorado,
California, Utah and Wisconsin. The great
est success has attended the manufacture
In the far west though the beets can be
grown cheaper In the states of the Mis
slsslppl valley. It Is probable there will be
at least one factory built In Iowa next
year.
Prepare to Decorate.
Prof. E. E. Garnsey of New Tork arrived
in the city today with M. Phlllpp, his
superintendent, and together they planned
for erecting the scaffolding wltlfln the
great dome of the state capltol prepara
tory to commencing the actual work of
Interior decoration. Prof. Garnsey expects
to begin the work Immediately after Janu
ary 1. The Interior of the dome Is the
only portion of the Interior that was origi
nally decorated and this. will be decorated
anew. Prof. 8. Balshfield of New York
also looked over the capltol today with a
view to making an eatlmate on the cost of
the Immense central painting for the head
of the staircase, for which $10,000 has been
appropriated. This will be done within the
next two years.
Callanan Had Many Notes.
According to a report of the executors of
the estate of the late James Callanan, filed
today, he held nearly $1,000,000 worth of
notes at the time of his death and most of
them are secured by mortgages and are
good. The largest was a note of the Mexi
can National Iron Mountain company of
Durango for 8383,000 money advanced. This
was a company In which Mr. Callanan was
Interested.
Des Moines Postal Profits,
The claim Is made, here today that, ac
cording to the report of the Postofflce de
partment, the Des Moines postofflce leads
all other large cities In the net profits to
the department, or in other words, that
the percentage of expenses to Income Is
less here than In any other place. The
total expense of the Des Moines office was
1128,522 and the receipts were $462,133.
Failed to Fight Trust.
A commotion was created among the
Iowa, implement dealers today by the re
fusal of that body to take any definite
steps In opposition to the harvester trust,
and the accusation la made by others that
there has been collusion between the offi
cers of the state association and the -officers
of the harvester combine which has
rendered this possible. The association
elected officers: President, E. P. Arm
knecht, Donnelson; vice president, A. J.
Sowers, Bedford; secretary, D. M. Grove,
Nevada. The association heard only those
who defended the trust and no action was
taken. It Is regarded as probable thla will
result In a spilt In the association.

treated by the best known scientific method
of cure Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
These curative tablets are" composed of
ingredients which modern knowledge of tha
true inward processes of digestion approve
of, as forming the beat, aafest, surest and
most scientific combination of medicinal
drugs, that can be used to relieve all the
conditions of Hi-health brought on by this
much-dreaded disorder,
A disease so "protean" or changeable in
Its manifestations, assuming so many forms,
characterised by so many different symp
toms that, more times than not, It Is
mistaken for some other disease altogether,
and the poor patient may die, or at best
allow the seeds of permanent, chronic
alckneas, to germinate and take root in his
system.
So it is a real danger we ask you to
avoid, when we say: In case of doubt,
take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Even If disordered digestion la not the
real eause of your sickness (which, prob
ably, though, tt Is), yet your digestion Is
nearly certali. to be out of order, and if
allowed to remain so will seriously compli
cate your alckneas for you.
Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets, then, will be
aura to do you good, and will not Interfere
with any other medicine you may be tak
ing. They will help to make your food make
you etrong, and thua, if In no ether way,
help you back to health by helping your
system to throw off dlaease like a healthy
duck shakes water off Its back,
Shake off your alcknesa with Stuart'a

set but Lydla E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound came to me as

the help I obtained through its use." Mrs. Florence Uantorth,

should have a dress form and every woman
should be taught the art of shopping, de
signing and something at least of making
her own clothes," said Mrs. Foote. With
costumes that were models of simple ele
gance she illustrated the several kinds of
gowns for which the average woman has
necessity, pointing out where they are too
elaborate for practical wear or where they
might be made more so and Impressing
upon her audience through their fitness and
consistency the inconsistency of over-dressing
on ordinary occasions and the du
sirabillty of simple elegance. She explained
why the tailor suit, the simple, plain tailor
suit. Is the thing to wear on the street
and at conventions and with her own
model showed the most approved style for
this season. Another model showed the
combination afternoon reception and dinner
gown, convertible through two bodices worn
with the same skirt. She advocated good

that are becoming and consistent with the
form and style of the wearer. Excessive
