HAS ONE WIFE TOO MANY
Ycung Man "Gets His Foot in It" by Tak
ing Unto Himself Another Wife.
Evidently F.arl W. Himstedt, a
young- man of twenty-tbree years, has
started out pretty early in the marry
ing business as, according- to the Glen
wood, (Iowa ) Tribune, the youn? man
now languishes in the jail at that place
charged with bigamy.
According to the Tribune, Himstedt
was arrested in Council Bluffs and
brought to Glenwood Friday evening
by Sheriff Linville. He has waived
preliminary hearing and has been
bound over to the September grand
jury, under bonds of a thousand dol
lars, which he has thus far been un
able to furnish.
The parties to the affair are but lit-
tie
known to Glenwood people. The
young man was married here on the
night of October 22, 1905. The bride
was a Miss Maude Moore, and the cer
emony took place in one of the Ivory
cottages where the grandparents of
the bride resided. They were Mr.
and Mrs. Fred Frese. Mr. Frese was
employed as harness maker with L. E.
Geil for about ten months.
The couple were in town only a few
hours. They gave their residence as
East St. Louis. The mother of the
bride was here at the time. She had
been opposed to the marriage, but at
last relented.
Justice F. G. Day officiated at the
marriage, and now behold what
strange things the whirling of time
bring about. Some time last week the
bride of eighteen months ago ap
peared at Justice Day's office, and
swore out an information for the ar
rest of the erstwhile bridegroom,
charging bigamy.
The young woman carried in her
arms a babe of of tender ace, but in
her eye was the fire of resentment over
the treatment she bad undergone at
tho hands of the recreant Himstedt.
It is asserted that Himstedt was
married to a Miss Johnson at Atlan
tic previous to his marriage here at
Glenwood and that he has never been
divorced. It appears that this fact
recently came to the ears of wife No.
2 while Himstedt was attempting to
get a divorce on the quiet from wife
No. 1.
For some months past the couple
have been living in Omaha where it
is said the father of Himstedt is a
Pullman conductor. A brother of the
wronged wife, C. 3Ioore, is said to be
employed at the Orvls meat market
in Council Bluff. Wlf 2 No. 1 is said
to be living in Council Bluffs also.
Mrs. F. Brockman, 813 Meado street, Appleton, Wis., writes :

erable and unhappy before I began taking Peruna.

No Doctor Required.
Mr. Edward Otto, !L7 Va Soto street,
Bt. Paul, Minn., writes:
"I cannot say enough for Peruna. It
has done great work in my family, es
pecially for my oldest boy. We had
doctored with three or four different
doctors and they did not seem to do him
any good.
"Wo jravo up hopts of cure, and so
did they, but wo ulled him through on
IVruna.
"We had severs! doctors end they
said they could do no more for him, so
v t tried Peruna as a last resort, and
that did the work. Since then we
keep it in ths house ell the t-me, and
no doctor is required." Ed wsrd Ozio.

The Anti-Pass Case.
The case of the State of Nebraska
vs. A. N. Sullivan charged with hav
ing accepted a free pass at the hands
of the Missouri Pacific railroad com
pany came to a close so far as the
power of the district court is concern
ed Thursday afternoon. Couty At
torney Itawls, in behalf of the state
and prosecution, read the complaint,
and proceeded to question the defend
ant, A. N. Sullivan, as to the manner
of his compensating the company for
the so called free transportation.
The defendant admitted that he
held the transportation, and that he
had ridden on the same when he so
desired, but contended that his serv
ices rendered was sufficient to pay for
the same, and as the contract was
made prior to the enactment of the
new law, it was unconstitutional as it
attempted to invalidate a contract
protected by the power of the consti
tution, which prohibits legislation
impairing the validity of contracts.
County J udge H. D. Travis appeared
and made the argument, as stated
above, for the defendant, while A. L.
Tidd appeared as a friend of the court.
Jesse L. Root, being more familiar
with the new law, was called upon to
give an explanation of its intention.
A strong argument was made in favor
of the defendant by H. D. Travis in
the absence of Mr. Sullivan's prepared
counsel, who was unable to be present.
Judge Paul Jessen took the case un
der advisement, and at the time of
going to press today he has not an
nounced bis decision, but it is ex
pected before court adjourns this af
ternoon. We understand that County Attor
ney Bawls will ask to have the case
dismissed, as he is of the opinion that
it is not a fair case to make a test of.
Good Sound Sense.
This is the way the Lincoln Journal
man puts it: ''One of the things that
makes a game of baseball disgusting is
to bear a lot of sapheads in the grand
stand beefing at the decisions of the
umpire. As a rule the umpire's deci
sions are fair, and whether so or not,
they are "official" and must be sub
mitted to. Another thing, it never
helps the cause of a team that is get
ting the worst of the game for the
partisans of that team to make it un
comfortable for the umpire."

IThe Benefit Which the Children of
the United States Have Received
From Pe-ru-na Can Never Be

The chronic ailments it has prevented,
th suffering it ha's" mitigated, will never
be fully recorded.
Hut at least this much can be said that
the coniiiiir generation owes a great
debt to IVruna, for it is in the tender
years of youth that slight ailments are
liable to (1 'velip intr lasting disease,
thus blasting the whole career of the
individual.
The mothers who are bringing up
their children to-day to believe in IVru
na are .-peaking from their experience.
These children brought up to believe
in IVruna from the start, will, wiien
they become heaus of families them
selves, use IVruna with unquestioning
faith..
Who Struck Lindsay?
Thursday night about eleven o'clock,
the police were noticed of a man lying
near the bill boards on Sixth street,
opposite the postoflice, and for some
time all sorts of rumors were atloat as
to some one being held up, robbed and
slugged, and left lying in an unconsci
ous condition. Night Police Slater
hurried to the scene and found it to
be Sam Lindsay, and while a portion
of the story was true, the robbing part
was false. When questioned as to who
struck him, Lindsay was unable to
tell, or how he became in the locality
where he was found. His eye was bad
ly bruised and swollen as though he
had encounted some pugilistic expert
and got the worst of it. lie was plac
ed in jail, and this morning brought
before Judge Archer where he was as
sessed the usual SI. 00 and costs.
It is claimed that Lindsay was drink
ing some yesterday, and he probably
got a little too much, which accounts
for him being unable to remember
how or when he received the stunning
blow on the head.
Bridges Case Advanced.
In reference to the incest case
against John P. Bridges, the Ne
braska City Tribune says: "Attorney
John P. Bridges, appeared in supreme
court at Lincoln Tuesday with appli
cation for reduction of bail for his
client, fixed by the court at $5,000,
pending the hearing of the appeal case
in the supreme court. County Attor
ney D. W. Livingston appeared for the
state. This morning Attorney Wat
son was advised by the clerk of the
supreme court that the court bad
made no further order in the matter
of Bridges' bail but had advanced the
case forhearingto the first meeting
of the court in June. The court will
assemble on June 4th. In the mean
time the sentence of the district court
is suspended and Bridges isadmissable
to bail in the sum of $5,000 if he can
procure it."

The Journal is in receipt of a letter

ed to 1715 North 35th street, where he
says he has just purchased property.

A Child's Life Saved.
Mr. G. II. Farmer, New Martinsville,
W. Va., writes :
"Our little son, Harry, is well and
healthy now and we think if we do as
you directed us, he will keep his health
and grow strong.
We know that our little son's life
was saved by your wonderful medicine,
Peruna, and we shall always praise
Peruna and use it in our family when
needed.
"Should we havo any moro catarrhal
trouble in our family, we shall always
write to you for treatment.-''
Mr. W. 1'. luring, Mt. Vernon, Mo.,
writes :
"I have used IVruna to my entire sat

pleased with the results, having suf
fered greatly with catarrh of the

Boys Were Drowned.
C. S. Wortman, grandfather of the
young man, who in company of an
other boy, made their disappearance
from home last December, was in the
city yesterday, and gave the Journal a
call. It will be remembered that the
boys started from the Wortman home,
near Ashland, ostensibly for the pur
pose of skating and that was the last
seen of them. Reports came to the
father of the Wortman boy that they
had been seen at several places, but
that be has never placed any truth in
these reports, and has never given up
the theory that both boys found graves
in the water. Since finding the coats
a few days since, Mr. Wortman has
become more convinced than ever that
the boys were drowned.
Kraft Coming to Stay.
The Millard property has been sold
and Glenwood will gain a good citizen.
The purchaser cf this beautiful home
is Mr. Chas. Kraft, a member of the
firm which comprises the Kraft Cloth
ing Co. The consideration has not
been generally known but it comes
from an authoritative source that it
was $5,250.
Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Laraway, who
have occupied the place since last
September, will soon vacate, though
no definite plans are made for their
future residence.
Mr. and Mrs. Kraft have been re
siding at Plattsmouth. The people of
Glenwood shouid feel flattered that of
twelve places where they own stores
Mr. Kraft and wife should have
chosen this as the most desirable one
in which to live. The other brother,
George Kraft, makes his home at Ft.
Madison.
This change will probably mean
that Frank Huston, who has been
here as manager of the store since It
was purchased about the middle of
January, will return to Plattsmouth
though definite announcement to thi3
effect has not been made.
Glenwood people extend to Mr. and
Mrs. Kraft a hearty welcome to the
city. Glenwood Opinion.
Informally Entertained.
Mrs. Dora Moore entertained the
following ladies at a six o'clock dinner
yesterday at her home at Rock and
Ninth streets: Mrs. J. W. Newell,
Mrs. H. E. Snyder, and Misses Olive
and Stafield Jones.
While the gathering was simply an
informal affair, the afternoon was
most enjOyably spent.
Mrs. .1. C. Sterling, 133 lirown
Avenue, Norfolk, Va., writes :
"My littlo boy, Meredith, suf
fered with indigestion so badly ho
could not eat anything without it
making him very sick, so I
thought (as many others havo)
that I would try IVruna, and it
worked like a charm.
"Now he eats anything he
wishes, and I would not be with
out it for anything.
"My other little boy, Alfred,
two and a half years old, has
taken it and received as much
benefit from IVruna as his
brother.
' hope my testimonial may
be of some benefit to others, as I feel
as though I cannot praise it enough. "
Mrs. J. C. Sterling.
Mr. Howard Andrew Sterner, 424
Canal street, Heading, Pa., writes:
"I have Peruna in my house all the
time and won't be without it. It is good
for children when they take a cold or
croup. It cured my baby boy of croup.
"I have introduced Peruna into six
families since I received your la.-t letter,

Seed Corn Said to Be Sad.
The experiment station of the Col
lege of Agricultuie of the state of
Iowa, during the past winter made
many tests coming from all over the
state, and the result of the experi
ments has shown an alarming condi
tion. Out of 3,300 tests of corn com
ing from farms all over the state
proved that only 5S.2 per cent would
germinate. Iowa is only across the
Missouri river from Nebraska and it
is possible that the condition of corn
grown in Nebraska is very little dif
ferent from that grown in Iowa. This
being the case, it would be well for
every farmer to examine all his seed
corn closely before planting. Corn in
the corn belt is by far the most im
portant staple. A failure in the corn
means a Tailure in business generally.

The Mantle of Charity.
The Beatrice Sun discussing the ap
pointment of Don Despain as deputy
labor commissioner says: "But Gov
ernor Sheldon, the "boy governor,"
the man who stands fur all that is
pure in politics; he represents the re
form end of the great republican or
ganization in this state, Governor
Sheldon finds that he needs this person
in his business. He finds that a black
mailer may become a necessary ad
junct to the state administration. He
sees in this man who threatened to
wilfully and maliciously assail the
private character of a. representative
in the legislature, a valuable asset,
and, instead of driving him from the
state house, he promotes him from sec
retary toperpetual labor commission
er. Let us throw the mantle of char
ity over the unfortunate position that
Governor Sheldon has placed himself
in, and bow our heads in regret and
shame that the governor of this great
commonwealth has become entangled
in the meshes of one who, experience
has shown, will not hesitate to use
his power to advance his own personal
interests."
Guardian Appointed.
In county court Friday the guardian
ship matter of the heirs of Reuben
E. Chapin, deceased, came up for hear'
ing. Sometime ago a petition for
guardianship of the minor heirs waa
filed by their brother, a resident of
Douglas county. To this proceeding
the heirs objected, and nominated
a brother-in-law, Walter A. Laughlin.
After hearing the choice of the heirs
County Judge Travis lost no time in
appointing Mr. Laughlin, and fixed his
bond at $2,500. All the heirs that
were oldenoug to legally state their
choice were in favor of tbe appoint
made by the court.
Prompt Settlement.
George Stander received Friday a
draft for -S2000 on the policy held by
him against tbe Royal Highlanders.
The insurance was upon the life cf
Mrs. Stander who died on the Tth day
of March last. Mr. Stander made no
effort whatever to rush a settlement
but a draft was forwarded to him just
as soon as the proper evidence reached
the proper department. Tbe prompt
action of the Royal Highlander in
this matter demonstrates the fact
that it is an excellent and responsible
society.
