From Wednesday's Iiaiiy
Yostorday tho News published an
article about a man being arrested
hero for a crimo committed In or near
Council Bluffs. The man refused to
give his name yostorday but wo learn
today that his name is Armstrong,
SherilT Morgan of Council Bluffs came
here yesterday for the fellow after
It,ftrriins? from Chief Fit.patrick that
trie man was here. When Morgan ar-
rived hero yesterday the chief of police
informed him that Armstrong was
working at Collector Johnson's house
on the hill near tho high school build-
ing. The chief and Shoriff Morgan
planned to capture the fellow by the
chief entering the front door of the
houso whore he was at work and the
8heritT coming in at the back door.
Their pi ins worked all right and Arm-
strong was easily entrapped- When
Imormed that ho was to cousider
himso.f under arrest, he de-
manded sight of a warrant which
SheriiT Morgan presented him. Arm-
strong consented to go with the Iowa
omcer but when they got to tho train
for Omaha and wore about to board
it the fellow refused to go without a
requisition. Morgan turned his man
over to the chief of police and took the
train for Lincoln to obtain a rcquisi-
tion. Today the sheriff wired the
chief of police to liberate Armstrong
which was promptly dono. The offense
he was charged with was assault
and battery, which is not a requisition-
able offense, hence the Iowa officer
could not get a requisition. Tho Iowa
sheriff seems to bo very much of a
chump.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen
erally needed when the languid, ex

liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of a tonic and alterative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often abated long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers- No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and free
ing tho pystem from the malar5al
poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con
