The officers dropped Into Snyder's pawn shop Just In time to find a young follow unpacking a box of cutlery. They started an Investigation and found that the box had been sent by express from Lelghton , la. , on September 2 , by Charles Chambers and ad dressed to Tommy Corbln , Council Bluffs. The value of the package had been marked by the express agency at $5 and the notation made that the contents of the box had been asked for. but not given. The box contained a number cf pairs of shears , several hundred pockctknlvcs , some lazoi-j and an assorted lot of silver ami plated spoans. Just such a haul as burglars would be expected to make from a hardware stoic. The man who had the box gave his name as Tommy Corbln. He Is a young man , fairly well dressed and looks more like a farmer than a thief. He claims that his home Is In Denver and that the box and Its continls were given to him by a stranger on the train , or some story equally as plausible. He was placed tinder arrest as a suspicious character and the goods taken to the police station to await Identification. The iw.llce have received notice of several burglaries In the eastern part of the state and It Is thought that Mr. Corbln's box con tains the fruits of one of them. IIKI'I'IIMCAXS 1101,1) IMtlMAHIKS.

The numerous candidates for the county olilces had their friends working at the pri maries , but none of tin.in were strong enough to procure an instructed delegation. The contests were without particular features , except in the First precinct of the Sixth ward , where A. C.

Most of the afternoon was taken up In the district court yesterday In the argu ment of a motion to suppress a deposition. In the case of August Ulhline against Anna Pralor While the matter ocntatned In the deposi tion In this case Is nothing that is of in terest to the public , the case itself Is an interesting one In the respect that It sets up the violation of the trtato law as a de fense In .111 aclon brought ror debt. In 1SLII the Schlltz Brewing company bought a lot em Broadway from Mrs. Pralor for J5.000 and paid $3.00 In cash and g.ivo the woman credit for $1,500 on the books of the com pany's local agent and she took that amount out In beer and other liquors to supply the establishment she was running on Lower Broadway. Then she went Into debt and dually gave Mr. Ulhline , who Is trustee , for the brewing company , a mortgage on some other property. The mortgage fell due and was not paid and suit was commenced In foreclosure. Now Mrs. Pralor eels up the dcfenso that the debt was Incurred In pur chasing Intoxicating liquors In violation of the Ktuto law and is therefore void. She also claims that the $1.500 which was duo her on the llrst transaction and was paid In orders upon the llrm's local agent for beer was also a violation of the state law and that she Is entitled to recover that sum from that plaintiff In cash.

( Special Tele- cram. ) It is announced on good authority that Adjutant General Wright , conimander- In-chlet of the Iowa National Guards , will shortly Issue a brigadier general's commis sion to Colonel James A. Gutst of Burling ton , placing him In command of the First brigade of the guard. Tnere are already mutttrlngs of a storm which will ensue If this is done. Last fall an election was held by the brigade , and John II. Prime was elected by a few votes. It was said the companies that voted for him padded their membership for the occasion , and another election was ordered. At the same time It was discovered that Wright had used his Influence to secure Guebt's election , and had even sent out telegrams asking com manders of companies to vote their men for Guest. The second election resulted In the election of Prime again. Wright then refused to Issue Prime the commission , ami Governor Drake sustained him. The friends of Prime , when everything else failed , brought an action against the governor ami adjutant general , to compel them , by mandnniUH. to Issue the commission. Tills has been pending several months , during the summer vacation of the cuurt. It has been expected that the adjutant general would settle the matter by Issuing Prime's com mission , but he has determined to stand by Guest and Issue him a commission in the face of the election of Prime , on the ground that both the elections were fraudulent. If this Is done It will prcclpnato the greatest light ever known In the guards. Prime will fight it to a finish. SIOUX CITY COriM.H I3LO1M.SJ.

A curious sur gical operation was performed here today when at the university medical college n largo boa constrictor was cut open and a blanket which It had swallowed taken from Its stomach. The snake was a pet belong ing to Mrs. Pade Harden. Fifteen days ago It swallowed the blanket It lay upon. To day , when It had almost succumbed to the load , the snake was put under the effects of chloroform and an Incision five Inches long made In Its belly. The blanket , which looked as though It had been compressed by machinery , was withdrawn and the wound sewed up. Fifteen minutes Intel the reptile had overcome the effects of the chloroform and showed practically no signs of Its peculiar experience. It will live. IIKSri.TS OX Till * Ur.\XlN ! THAflCS.
