John WHlemans , a Garner township farmer ,
called at the police station yesterday morning
and complained that he had been robbed by
Alexander Chapln , a tramp , whose acquaint
ance ho made Sunday. They put In a very
pleasant Sunday worshiping at the shrlno
of Bacchus , and by the time night came both
were In a very jubilant condition. After that
what happened WHlonians did not know , but
" when ho awoke yesterday morning ho found
ho had two beautiful black eyes and his sil
ver watch and $65 In money were missing , as
well as Chapln. Chief Scanlan , Officer Mur
phy and Deputy Marshal Fowler went out
to look for Chapln and overhauled him In the
afternoon in a vacant dwelling on Twelfth
otreet and Avenue E. In his pocket was a
$20 gold piece. WHlemans1 horse , with which
ho had made his escape , was staked out near
the fair grounds , a short distance from the
houso. He was very non-committal and took
his being locked up in a very philosophical
manner. The police claim to have found out
the name of a man to whom he gave $5 of
the cash. _ _ _ _ _ '

crime with a flood of tears , going Into all the
details. Mrs. Knotts Is said to bo opposed to
sending the boy to the penitentiary on ac
count of his youth. The man for whom he
has been working saya ho has never caught
him In anything that looked like crookedness ,
although he has repeatedly Intrusted him with
various amounts of money. He Is too old to
ecnd to the reform school and too young ,
'
they think , for'tho penitentiary. It Is possi
ble that some way will be found of giving
him a taste of jail life wjthout giving him too
hard a dose , and that is what the officers are
figuring on now.

Danetown the Scene of a Verj Llvaly
Skirmish ,
CHARLES TULAN VERY HOTLY CHASED
.Made Derogatory Jtcmarks About Mri.
Itobert lluuicn for Which HoV
i'orccil to l.cnvo Homo
Hnther Hurriedly.
"Danetown , " the part of the city lying
south of the tracks , came very near having a
llttlo excitement In the shape of a lynching
last evening , and the would-not-bo victim Is
occupying a bunk at the oity jail because he
Is afraid to gu home , His name Is Charl&s
Tulan , and ho has been living by himself In
a llttlo shanty at the corner of Fifteenth
street and Fllteenth avenue. Ho used to
work on the street gang , but when the change
In supervisors took place last spring ho was
let out and lias been cutting willows south
of Munawa until very recently.
Several days ago a llttlo discussion arose
among the Inhabitants of Danetown as to
the morals of a Mrs. Robert Hansen. Mrs.
Hansen accused Tulan of getting drunk , and
Tulan retaliated by making a very deroga
tory remark about Mrs. Hansen. Some of
the men of the neighborhood took up the
charge , and to emphasize his position , Tulan
tald he had been Intimate with Mrs. Hansen ,
and all the rest of them had been , too.
Hansen evidently found out that the first
part of the remark was title , for last evening
about 9 o'clock he got a lot of his friends
together who had been coupled with his wife
by Tulan , and swooped down upon Tulan's
shanty. Tulan heard the gang coming , but
thinking they were just trying to frighten
him , he locked the windows and went to bed
HAD A ROPE FOR USE.
But ho had not lain there very long before
he heard u big noise outside , and , going to
the window , ho saw Robert Hanson. Ole Ole-
son , John Johnson and perhaps a dozen more
outside , with u rope. It did not take him
more than half a second to decide In his owi :
mind that they meant business. He grabbed
his trousera In his hand , rushed out of the
back door anJ over as many fences as came
In his way , In his mad rush for safety , with
the whole crowd after him. Ono of them
who had been brought up on a stock ranche
tried to latso him with the rope , but his aln
was untrue , nnd Tulan's neck escaped thi
noose. After running several blocks , Tulan
found tl.no to get Into his trousers. Accord
Ing to his story they chased him to the cor
ner of Tenth avenue and Eighth street
where ho lost them In the middle of a bean
patch. Ho kept on his way to the polio
station where ho beggeJ for a place to etay
over night.
Ho said he had a revolver under his p'llow '
but on the Fourth ho celebrated by shooting
all the loads out of It. If It had not been fo
his negligence In falling to reload he sayi
there would certainly have bscn severa
Dansko funerals.

nillntt Alton Expert * tu Take Charge o
tl i Drilnny.
Elliott Alton of Leavenworth was In th
city yesterday In conference with W. A
Maurer with reference to the proposed leasln
of Dohany's opera house. Negotiations hav
been pending for several weeks past. On Mr
Alton's first vlalt here he had the mlsfortun
to fall Into the society of some of the pro
fesslonal croakers of Council Bluffs , and the
succeeded In picturing such an alarming con
dltlon of affairs that ho almost decided note
to take the house. He has reconsidered hi
decision , however , and now says that If he I
given proper encouragement from the clt
zens he will lease the building for a ten
of years nnd give Council Bluffs a thor
oughly first class place of amusement.
He does not ask any bonus , but mere !
assurances that the citizens will support th
enterprise. The executive committee of th
Merchants and Manufacturers association wl
hold a meeting today at Stone & Dawson
ofllce and appoint a committee to secure a
expression of opinion from the people. M
Alton has been In the theatrical business fo
ten years , having managed play houses !
Leavenworth , Topeka and Fort Madison , la. ,
bringing fine testimonials from each of the
places. If ho takes the house he will spend
$2,000 In renovating It , painting the entire
Interior , frescoing and gliding the walls and [
celling , providing new scenery , giving the
building a thorough cleaning from cellar to
gallery , and putting In a new heating plant
By bringing first-class companies Mr. Alton
has no doubt that the house will soon be put t
upon a paying basis. While It Is true that t
Omaha theaters have drawn many Council 1
Dluffs people to the other side of the river , It
Is equally certain that their patronage from
this side Is not so large as la commonly sup
posed , and there are many who prefer to stay
at homo rather than either go to Omaha for
their amusements or patronize a badly1 man
aged house at home. Until the late Mr.
Dohany was prevented by poor health from
paying the attention to tlie opera house that
he would otherwise have given U Council
Bluffs was considered a good show-going
town , and there Is but llttlo doubt that If
Mr. Align leases the house and carries his
plans Into execution It can be made to pay
as well as It ever did.

Hart and others of the Drake crowd also
went. The rest of the delegates will go
today. The Idea of having a special car ,
which was at llrst talked of , was abandoned
because the delegates could not agree on a
time for leaving , some wanting to start
earlier than others. It Is said that Council
Bluff ? will send the biggest crowd of lobby
ists that ever went from here to any repub

Constable B. P. Stevlck , who claims tc
have officiated at the destruction of Ed Sher
lock's stock of liquor several days ago , was
arrested yesterJay on an Information filed In
Justice Vlen's court , charging him with mak
ing a false return on a search warrant ,
Henry Wagner had a grievance against
Sherlock growing out of a little business
transaction , and he Immediately felt his soul
fired with a real for the strict enforcement
of the mulct law , particularly In Sherlock' . !
saloon. He secure ! a search warrant and 11
was put In Stevlck's hands for service. Hall
a dozen jugs of wine , gin and mild drink ;
were seized , but not a drop of beer or whisky ,
Stevlck accounted for this by saying thai
Sherlock told him he had no beer , and In
didn't know whisky when he drank It. Tin
liquor was duly tried and found guilty ant
ordered annihilated.
After the annihilation proceedings haJ b er
gone through Stevlck made hla retu-n 'o h
justice. But Wagner was not satlsfleJ. Sat
urday might he swore out a seirch warrant
for Ed Sherlock's barn , claiming to have secured - j
cured evidence to show that Initead of being
destroyed It had been carted there. But
Constable Baker , who served thin , failed to
flnd anything In the way of liquor In the
barn. Wagner went on with his rat killing ,
and now claims to have secured further evi
dence that from the barn the liquors were
token by night to Sherlock's saloon , there
again to take their place in the channels of
trade. A broken jug which nad contained
some Catawba wlno was found lying In the
barn yard. The wlno 11 had held was sour ,
and so was the wine In the Catawba jug that
had been kept for several days In Justice
Vlen's court room. Yesterday afternoon
Wagner filed an Information before Vlen
charging Stevlck with making a false return ,
and Stevlck was arrested. He gave bonds
for his appearance at 2 o'clock Thursday
afternoon , when the case'wlll be tried.
Stevlck claims that he had witnesses along
with him to see that the work of destruction
wc.s properly done , and although he refuc
to confide the names of the witnesses to the
public , he says they will be on deck when the
tlmo comes.

Harrison Lallmm , who has live or six crim
inal suits pending against him by reason of
his torrid style of love making , was given up
by his bondsmen yesterday and consigned to
the county Jail. When his friends agreed to
put up the money for his appearance It was
upon the understanding that he was to keep
away from Mrs. Clara Wyman , with whom
ho had become Infatuated. Hut In spite of
his promises he found himself unable to keep
away from her , and BO the cases commenced
to pile up against him. The friends who had
assisted him In the first case kept on until
there were $2G50 In bonds standing against
them. Ampng them was one bond to Insure
his keeping the peace. Several of his alleged
misdeeds have taken place since that bond was
given , so that if he had been tried and con
victed of any of his numerous offenses the
bondsmen would have been compelled to pay.
Dut their action yesterday saved them , for
by turning htm over to the authorities and
being released from the bonds , they prevented
the county from dividing their cash with
them.

tice Cook for a preliminary hearing.

the horse took fright and overturned the

The youngest one , C years of age , had his
skull fractured and last evening his recovery
was considered very doubtful , his brain
being affected. The older , a 10-year-old , had
a broken leg and was In very bad condition ,
although It Is not thought that any serious

Chief Bullet In a proclamation ending : "I
shall continue to recognize Chief Perryman

DES MOINES , la. , July 8. ( Special Tele
gram. ) The sensation In the contest for the
republican nomination for governor , now goIng -
Ing on warmly In this city prior to the state
convention which meets Wednesday , which
was intimated In these dispatches last even
ing , will bo sprung upon the public by the
leading Drake paper tomorrow morning. It
contains a series of letters which fasten
the authorship of the charges against Gen
eral Drake , which were published In the
Corning Gazette and ecattcred broadcast over
the state , upon the Harlan and McFarlnnd
managers. It Is expected that the publication
of the article connecting Harlan and Mc-
Farland with the publication and circulation
of the charges against Drake will Injure their
gubernatorial chances and add sufficient
strength to Drake to give him the nomina
tion.
Meanwhile the tallenders In the procession
of gubernatorial candidates are sanguine.
Secretary McFarland claims 200 votes on the
llrst ballot , and that ho was a very general
second choice. While ho is not sure of the
nomination , ho says that he feels that he has
as good a chance as any one In the field.
"The argument that I am now holding office
has been worked against mo all over the
state , " said Mr. McFarland , "and I think
that It Is losing force. "
Colonel Ormsby was feeling particularly
good over the situation this afternoon. His
friends profess to believe that the contest be-
ween Drake and Harlan will become so biter
or that a compromise candidate will be nee.
ssary , and they think they can show that
rmsby is the man. Colonel Ormsby is cam-
algnlng as a liberal on the liquor question
ml hopes for river county support. He says
e has 1GO votes for the first ballot now , anil
opes to gain a number more before the con
dition opens.
James E. Blytho declines peremptorily to
e a candidate for re-election as chairman ol
lie state central committee. The leading
andldate among present members of the
ommtttee is H. G. McMillan of the Elev-
nth district. G. B. Pray of Webster City ,
x-clerk of the supreme court , while not i
namber of the committee , Is working hare

There Is no danger of any radical utter-
, nces getting Into the platform. Iowa re
publicans at present are very much Inter-
sted In the candidacy of Senator Allison for
.president , and they will not handicap him In
any way. Besides the party In this state
s thoroughly committed to the protection o
American Industries and to sound money
? , H. Conaway , president of ; the state Leagus
of Republican Clubs , said today : "The plat
orm will probably amount td a reiteration
of the declarations of tlie Minneapolis con
vention and contain little'else. It will prob
ably bo silent on the liquor question , follow
ng the policy of the party 6f two years ago
o consider that question out ft politics. "

"My catnrrhal trouble dates back nbout

I seemed to have a continual cold In tire
head , with a painful prcs.-mio on top and
through the temples. The HOMO nnd mouth
were full of mucus that xtopped mo up In
the head. The dropping of this secretion
Into my stomach disordered that organ co
that I became dyspeptic. Soon I became
languid , weak , without ambition , and , In a
word , 'run down1 completely. I felt that
the real cause won the catarrlml poison In
me , and after a courte of treatment with
Dr. Shcpanl I am so roptored and changed
as to feel entirely a new man. "
