"Dr. Lleber , first real name unknown , "
)3 ) the wuv It nppcnr.s on the complaint.
The Information states directly that the
so-called doctor is guilty of Illopully practic
ing or attempting to practice , nnu Incident
ally that ho has boon picked out by the State
Board of Health as their meat.
In connection with these charges thcro Is
a little interesting information regarding the
doctor. Some ten years ago , Dr. Liobor
hung out his shlnglo near the corner of
Thirteenth und Capitol avenue , where ho
dispensed decoctions of "ynibs" or Im
mersed his patients In baths of unknown
mixtures ns the funcv suited him.
Kor u time ho llouilshcd , and then the plaeo
that had known him know him no moro. Ho
hud packed ui > his "ynrbs , " bottled up his
bath Juice and nought newer and greener
Holds. While his memory was still fresh
ho reappeared llko a comet , and for
u short tlmo nil sufferers who called on him
were trontod to a hearty wig from an lm-
mouse jug that was n conspicuous article In
ono corner of his little ofllce. The treatment
was something on the old tlmo plan , and the
theory was that medicine that was good for
chlllblalns would bo equally helpful In a case
of typhoid fovor.
But Dr. Ltobor was not hero to stay. Ho
disappeared again and turned up In Council
Bluffs , where he remained for u tlmo and
was next hoard of In Mitchell , S. I ) . A few
months ago ho ngaln located In Onuha
ut Twenty-fourth and Pinknoy streets ,
where he has boon superintending
the workings of his oaths und
dispensing specifics to great and small.
When arrested the doctor found a
bondsman In Peter Gees , who signed the
tilOO appearance bond , and the prisoner was
released. Yesterday , however , Mr. Gees
refused to continue longer on the bond ,
and the defendant was sui rendered
into the custouv of the ofllcors.
Another hustlu for ball was unproductive of
good results , und the doctor was locked up.
I1 rom a well icnown druggist something of
Liober's modus opornndl was learned.
"Liobor won't stay in Jail , " tie declared.
"I couldn't go on his bond , because if 1 did I
would have all the other doctors down on mo ,
but it will bo fixed up In another way so
that ho will got ball this afternoon. I have
known him for jours and I know that ho
makes money. Ho buys n good deal of stuff
of mo nnu pays cash , and his business i& Just
us peed ns anybody's. Ho registered with
CountyClern O'Mulloy the lust timu ho was
here , but ho didn't this time.
" 1 know ho hasn't a diploma , and ho Is un
educated , but ho has moro practical know
ledge than some of the doctor ? who nave di
plomas. Ho has plenty of assurance and
can make folks bollovo black is white. What
if ho Is a quack } Folks want to bo hum
bugged , and ho can do it us well
ns an ) one olso. Ho don't hurt any
body , ' as his medicines are Harmless.
I know what ho buys. Ho gives patent med
icines mostly , and folks don't know It. What
if ho does buv Aycr's Cnerry 1'octornl and
give It out In little bottles labelled 'Dr. Lie
ber's Cough CuroC The modlelno will do
Just as much good , won't It ? They can't
convict him , for he is really a patent med
icine compoundor.
" 1 have Just gotten in a lot of labels for
him. Some of thorn cnmo this morning.
Hero they nro , " and the druggist hauled out
several packacfs of labels among which
were a couple reading as follows :
"Dr. Liober's ICIdnoy Specific , the Great
est Panacea for all ICidnoy and Urinary Dis
cuses in the World , Tablespoonful I times
n day , after meals and at bedtime. "
"Dr. Lieber's Hheumatic Liniment will
Speedily Holiovo tlio Worst Pains incumbent
on all "cases of inflammatory or Articular
Hheumaiism , Gout.otc. Apply three times a
day. "
"Now , then , " said the druggist , "won't
Warner's Safe cure do just as much good if
called Liobor's Kidney specific ? There may bo
no dlfforcnco ut. nil , or ho may add u little
water or nnythirg ho chooses. I tell you
thoio are lots of folks In Omaha who swear
by Liobor , " and the prescription compoundor
carefully replaced the labels in a drawer
under the counter bcforo going to wall on a
customer.
"Llober don't have to stay In jail , " he de
clared , as he returned to further discuss the
subject. "Ho has money In the bank und
could put It up for his release , but his lawyer
advised him not to do It , because If the court
found out that ho had It ho might bo lined
unonch to take It all und not leave anything
for the Inwyor. _

Van Closter was the president of the loan
company which ilgurcd as plaintiff In tno
case and was charged with pledging the
leasehold of the company In what Is known as
the "Checkered burn , " to Ulust ft Co. , to secure
cure n personal indebtedness of about SJ.OOO ,
without the knowledge or consent of the sec
retary and treasurer of tlio company or any
of the directors. Suit was brouirht to cancel

Judge Doano found tnut the facts had been
proven ns stuted nnd found for the plain
tiff.

ngnlnst Mrs. Julia E. Adnms ot al. , nnd Mr
Van Clostor also occupied n vorv prominent
position In the caso. Tlio Nebraska Mortgage

number of notes made by Mrs. Adams to the
loan company und secured by mortgage.
These notes' Van Clostor had pledged to
Hlust & Co. to secure an individual debtand
tllust Si Co. had brought suit to foreclose the

Tlio dofendcnts answered that tlio Indebt

ttlon to Krod W. Orav , who was u diioctor of
the association , und was afterwards assigned
o the plaintiff.
The plaintiff demurred to the answer and
asked that It be stricken out. The demurrer
was overruled on the ground that the statute
holdinr the stockholders liable for the in-
dnblodncss of the corporation , where notice
of indebtedness was not published , did not
render them liable for indebtedness to a di

County Druggist Scunner is in n peck of
trouble because ho don't know whether to

Commissioner Puddock called on him and
told him that there wus something wrong
somnwhero , and he must not fill everything
that came along ,
When asked what to do and where to
draw the line the major told him ho must
use his own Judgment to see that emergency
cases should nor Miller.
Mr. Schrotor was still wandering how ho
was to know about the cases when Commls-
sionor Van Camp happened In to O. 1C. some
of IJr. Keogh's pi inscriptions , for which
pay had not been received. "That will llx
these all right , " remarked Van Camp , us ho
attached his hysterical autograph to three of
tbo bark numbers.
"Yes , but what am I to do with now ones
that are brought in ) Keogh maintains
that ho Is still county physician and that his
term won't expire until February 7 , because
ho was appointed for a year February 7 ,
Ib'.U. ' The board has appointed Dr. King for
this year , and what will I do if they both
keep sending In proscriptions ? I don't want
to till 'cm for nothing. "
"Send 'cm to the court house , " suggested
Dr. Van Camp , while a smllo of' hope run
riot over tils countenance.
"Who will got 'om Mnhonoy or Dr. IClugi
Will they have to bo O. It-'d before thov are

" 1 don't know , " replied the commissioner
slowly , and then ho vanished through the
door ns the easiest way out of the diffi
culty.
"it's hard cnouL'h to got my money with.
out any now trouble , " complained
tire aggrieved pharmacist , "and now I can't
got any Information about whut to do. "
Ex-Commissioner O'iCcofo dropped In to
tell how lonesome ho was since ho was out of
olllce and the case was laid before him.
"Guess Keogh is In for n year , " replied
Ktelmrd , "but 1 can't tell you what to do , "

The prospects of a war with Chill gave the

nbundnnt material for war talk und specula
tion yesterday. The width , depth und general -
oral character of the strait of Magellan
appeared to bo n leading topic on
account of the expected engagement
thcro should war bo declared be
tween \ho Chilinn ilcet nnd the
American warships now at Montevideo.
Major Ducon'H excellent maps ot the Chil
ian and Tier a Jol Fuego country were
brought into requisition and u gonornl can
vass of the situation took place
In Colonel Stonton's olllco. The
conclusion of the wliolo matter was
that Admiral Wnlkor with nbout three or
four of the best ships in the American navy
could moot the Chilian Hoot of four vessels
said to bo heading tov.ard the strait
and wipe it out.
The strait of Magellan is over 300 miles
long nnd of very irregular width , as it is
bounded by islands nnd promontories. It U
dlflleuit of navigation. The tides run very
high there , reaching analtitude in some
places of fifty feet. The wntur is very deep

There were a number of eyo-wltnesses to
tnc nccidant , among them being John Uop
sonV. , . G. ArniiiroiiK and II. .1. Kadlsli.
They all toll substantially the snmo story ,
which Is as follows : The train was heavily
loaded , passengers tilling both cars and
standing on tlio platform * . As the train
neared U'objter street , Moore , who was
standing about llfty foot south of the south
line of the street und on the west sldo of the
trucks , caught hold of the guard rail on the
front end of the trailer. Ho stopped upon
the footboard , but a second later slipped and
fell. In doing so ho released his hold upon
the guurd rail and was thrown headlong
across the track between the cars. The sig
nal to stop was Immediately given , but bu-
fore the train haa been brought to a stand
still both wheels or the car hud uassod over
the man's body.
Told liy tlio Conductor.
Conductor Snyder said that ho had Just
collected the- faros In the front car und was
Just coming out onto the platform. He saw
Memo slip and fall. Immediately ho gave
the motornmn "tliroo bells" and the motor
was reversed. The train was under control ,
but before it could bo stepped the car tiad
passed over Mooro's body and had reached
ihe middle of Webster street.
The conductor was one of the ilrst persons
to roach the body. Ho found It about thirty
lent south of tno south llnoof Webster street.
It was horribly mutilated , the wheels appar
ently having cauirht Moore about the head.
They than passed over his loft sldo and over
botu legs , nearly severing thorn from the
trunk. Although the victim gasped once or
twice after being pleltod up , it is probable
that ho was dead before ho was talton off the
rails.
The conductor and motorman made tboir
round trip , and upon reaching Furnnm street
on their way north were relieved by other
employes of the lino. They at once pro
ceeded to the police station , where they sur
rendered thomselvci to an oftlcor , but were
released to uwalt the findings of the core

Norton Hros. ' ( ft-n < lm-s Again 111 Troulilt )
O\ur a Warrant.
William and J , C. Norton , the South
Omaha grading contractors who were ar
rested a few days ago on a charge of crook
edness in a grading contract In that suburb
and afterwards uncharged , wore arrested
again on a charco preferred by County
Attorney Mahoney und thrown into the
county Jail.
Yesterday morning they were arraigned
before Justice E. S. Brodlev and took a
change of venue to Justice Wilt-ox's court.
They mo charged on flvo counts with lar
ceny , larceny as halloo and obtninintr money
under false piotoiisos , the amount involved
being $1,745.
Mayor dloan says in regard to the affair :
"It is folly for Norton Hros. to chorlsh the
Idea that they can got any benefit out of the
$1,740.15 In bonds hold by them. Nobody will
purchase these bonds , as everybody knows
that the Nortons have no right to them. I
have had one or two talks with the NOTIONS
and find that the older one is disposed to bo
fair about the matter and return the bonds.
The younger insists on keeping ' .horn In the
face of the fact that they were secured
only through a clerical error on the part of a
city oflleial. The property owners have al
ready paid their part of the cost of grading
the street and tnoy will never pay the extra
$1,710.15 In bonds that Norton Bros , bavo
secured by accident. "

Mrs. Ella Dcirlln , who lives at Eighteenth
und Pacific streets , Omaha , has caused the
arrest of U'illio Lake , her brother-in-law , on
the charge of grand larceny. Mrs. Horllu
says that the crime was committed last
April , but that she did not secure proof of It
until recently. She says that Luke , who
married her half-Ulster , stole a gold watch
and pair of gold bracelets belonging to her
little daughter. 'I lint the girl , while playing
in the wooodshod , took off the Jewelry and
left them In the place , but locked the door.
Later , however , she believes that Lake
sueakcd In through an opening and stele the
valuables.
No trace of tlio missing ornaments was ob
tained until recently when the gold v/ntch ,
was discovered in a pawnshop In Omaha
where It tiad boon loft by Lnko. Accordingly
Mrs. Berlin caused the South Omaha otleers )
to search the fellow's room and her suspi
cions wore sustained by the discovery
of the missing gold biuuolots hi Lake's
trunk. A warrant was therefore sworn out
tor his arrest and it was served on elm Just
as ho was leaving Swift's packing house.

The proposed ordinance which provides
Unit any person who refuses to obey the
orders of any flroniun at a flro shall bo lined
$100 and bo Imprisoned in the county Jail for
thirty days therofor is not mooting with any

because hu Is ordpiod to do so by tlio men

usual , was the cry. In speaking of incom-
potcncy , let mo remark parenthetically , the
measure with ull Its faults passed through
the hands of so competent on attorney as
John C. SVatson , whom it would bo criminal ,
I suppose , to stvlo a farmer. The urbanity
ot General McHrido has not saved him from
making n failure of the Lincoln Inspection
department. Every town in Nebraska
should not expect u chief inspector ; better
ono than two. The moro chiefs the more
wampum !
"Tno teeretaries of the State Board of
Transportation present ono sot of rules today
and another tomorrow. Ono set says the
state wolghmustor shall report to Uho chief
inspector of grain ; anotbor set says ho shall
report to tno State Uoa.-d.of Transportation ,
andROOn. As u result the Stnto Board of
Transportation und the chiefs , with their
auxiliaries , hnvo been at constant war with
ono another , und the grain men of Omaha
have furnished the music and the ammuni
tion.

tbb disgrace of beinira farmer , and-to f adopt
his plan ( thojcorroct one for the time- being )
of having ono hand wash the other
by allowing the different departments
to assist ono another ns far as
possible , the State Board of Transportation
would have been more consluerato in us
action. Instead of tbo independent chiefs ,
hardly on moro than speaking terms , and
their almost moro independent subordinates
lighting bipeds from the word go courting
discordpnarmonlous action and good feeling
would have been the rule. Under present
circumstances Jack Is as good as his master ;
the man who is under fo,000 ( ) bonds Is no
moro respected than ho who is only under
? 5,000 bonds.
"Whon sinecures and the amountof salaries
to bo piid the officials are held inferior to the
real Interest which the act is intended to en
hance , ihippors and producers of the state
will not only bo bettor satislled , but better
rewarded. With the true end in view lot
every man who would like to see a homo

Hon. G. M. Lnmbortson of Lincoln , who
prepared the brief for the government In the
Counsotman cise , told a reporter at Spring
field that he considered every criminal case
was affected by the holding of the supiomn
court , and added : "I think the aggressive
action of the commission in prosecuting the
violators is having a wonderfully good effect.
It proves to the small shipper tiiat his Inter
ests are to bo protected. After the law has
been passed upon and shown up judicially ,
the people will roall/o its full Impoitnnro
anew. What people want is an aggressive
commissionand I think they bavo it now and
good results will follow. "
