Miss Hcsslci Williams , ono of the members
of the High school , reported the theft yes
terday of her purse containing a certificate
of tie posit for J.100. J3 In cash and other
valuables. The young woman had that
amount of money on deposit In a local bank.
Yesterday she drew the Interest on the cer
tificate for the purpose of buying her Chrl&t-
mas presents , and had spent all but J3. The
purse was left In her cloak pocket in the
cloak room. It was taken seine tlrno during
the afternoon.
A number of minor thefts have been re
ported by pupils attending the school , and
the teachers arc very much exercised over
the fact that they have some adroit thieves
about the building1 who have so far success
fully eluded detection. The certificate Is
of no value to the person who stole It. The
bank In which the money Is deposited was
promptly notified of the theft.

Kli-ctcil li.v Six Vote- . .
Jason II. Lewis failed to make his ease
In the contest for the ofiice of justice of
the peace which he brought against Ovldo
Vlen. The recount of the vote gave the
Incumbent a majority of six votes , a loss
of nlno as compared to the majority given
him over Liwls In the election returns.
The total vote as announced by the con
test court gives Lewis 2.2G2 and Vlen 2,208.
Vlen had a majority of fifteen before the
contest. Oil the -votes that were not ob
jected to by either party , or were admitted
by content , both the contestant and Incum
bent had 2,254. This left forty-seven votes
on which the parties to the suit could not
agree and which were submitted to the court
for a ruling. Of these votes twenty-two
were counted and twonty-flvo rejected.
Vlen got the better of this , receiving four
teen and Lewis eight from the decision of
the court. The finding of the court was
formally announced last evening at n special
session held for the purpare.
The fact that both candidates received
the same number of votes undisputed by
either side practically ends the matter.
Lewis nn noun ceil that an appeal to the dis
trict court would not be made , owing lo
this , for If ho succeeded In throwing out
all the ballots that wcro objected to It
would leave hint a tie with Vlen and would
necessitate a. drawing of lots.
Lewis made a poor showing In the Sixth
ward. At the close of Monday's recount
ho had a lead of about six votes. The Sixth
ward lost him eight ballots , nnd a few-
changes In Kane outside left him tied with
Vlen on ballots not objected to. The Second
end precinct of the Fifth ward was the first
counted yesterday morning. The recount
gave Vlen 175 and Lewis 11)1. ) The contest
ant objected to three and the Incumbent to
two of the ballots. In the First precinct
of the Sixth ward Vlen was given 207 and
Lewis 211. Lowls objected to two ballots
and Vlen to one. Forty ballots wcro not
counted. In the Second precinct of the
Sixth Vlen got four and Ivewls forty-nine , a
loss of four votes to the contestant. The
first count gave Lewis flfty-tlireo votes.
Kane outside gave Lewis thirteen and Vlen
fourteen.

Assistant County Attorney Spruce Smith
has undertaken to reform the habit of
taking all criminal cases that arise In the
DO ! Ice court lo t > omo local justice of the
pencil on changes of venue. When the cases
of Bert Iluney and Charles Royce , alias Wil
son. caught In the act of robbing freight
cars In the Walmsh yards on Sunday night ,
were called In pollco court yesterday morn-
in : ; their attorney asked for a change of
vanuo on. the usual ground , prejudice of tie !
court. The case was taking Its usual course
when Mr. Smith Interposed an objection.
Hi * denied the assertion that the court was
prejudiced and denounced vigorously the
change of vcnuo habit. Ho declared that
the accused were not In Jeopardy , as the
action was on- ! preliminary , and the 'ire-
tcn o upon whljh the affidavit was based
was shallow and misleading. The nllldavlt
objected to all of the justices but Cook on
the same grounds , Smith asserted that the
defendants were entire strangers to nil of
the justices , ( f flie petition was granted
ho declared that the defendants might con-
tlnuo to cnll for changes and keep their
cases on the move until they had reached the
limit of the county , forty mil us away , and
worn out the prosecution.
Judge McGcu announced that he would
render bis decision today.

Illryclc Thief CourVxHeN.
A. W. Hell , the young man taken Into cus
tody .Monday afternoon upon the Husjilclon
that he was a wheel thief , entertained the
police by relating a great many different
kind * ot fairy atorku concerning himself
and bU IDDIJ jourccyn upon tuo light bicycle
m
ho w.is trjlng to sell for JS. The police
finally became tired and requested him to
tell a little truth for a change. HP accepted
the Invitation , nnd told all about how he
happened lo steal the wheel and from whom
he stole It. " 1 don't want you to think fern
n moment that I am chump enough to steal
n whet ! from a farmer. I ain't that kind of
a wheel thief. What would I want of n wheel
that tom ? old hnyblnder had got stuck on ?
No. sir. that was a gentleman's wheel , and
I ( tile It from n banker out In Ida county ,
Iowa. 1 rode It to Council Hluffs and con
cluded It was cheaper and easier to buck a
freight train. There's no fun on the country
riuds with a wheel In the winter time. "
Hell told the olllccr that the owner of
the machine was a man named McCutchen ,
a banker In Holsteln. The- banker left his
wheel on his back porch one evening , and
Hell happened to pass nlong the street nt
the same time. He stole the wheel and getaway
away with It. Chief of Police Canning wired
McCutchcn yesterday anil received continua
tion of Hell's etory. giving n full description
of the Wheel nnd Its number. Hell will be
held as n fugitive from justice until nn olllrer
from the town town comes after him. Hell
Is a boy under 20 years of age. He seems to
be greatly distressed since he has learned
that his crime Is serious enough to scud him
to the penitentiary.

MM * , levy , $71fi70 ; county road fund. $9SS.05 ;
.ulfcollon.ous transfers to general fund ,

< 260 ; milk license * . $2S5.60. Of this rmoiint
there remains after thi < November bills have
been paid but $22.2GO.fiS , which shows an
Mrendliure of J5S.301.7I since the middle of
April.
Deducting from the total amount expended ,
which was J5S.30I.74. the sum of $ lb.615.40.
which went to pay Interest on Funeral bond * ,
and J12.SS5.CO , which was usrd to lliiuldnto
judRtncnts , leaves a balance of $2(3.000.71 ( ex
pended In the various departments of the
city sjiico Mayor Knsor has been nt the head
of municipal affairs. Dividing this sum
by eight , which Is the number of months
this administration has been In power , shows
n monthly expenditure of J3.3G2.GO. exclusive
of Interest and Judgments.
Should the expenditures for the balance ot
( he fiscal year continue au the same rate rs
they have during the past fight months , the
amount will be J2G.BOO.SO. As the balance
In the funds after November bills were paid ,
deducting the balance In the Interest and
park funds , amounts to only J13.S07.GG. It
will readily bo seen that there will bo an
overlap of J18.on3.14. It Is estimated , how
ever , that with Improvements constantly
being ordered by the council that the overlap
next August will not fall far short of $20,000.
The balances against which warrants may
yet bo drawn are as follows : Interest.
J7.737.02 ; pjllce , $1.023.20 ; nro and water ,
$1.067.17 ; public light. J2S9r..G2 ; salary. J3-
total. J22.2GO.GS.
Out of the funds against which warrants
have not yet been drawn a bill for JGOO for
nro hose will have to be paid , as will also
the Cortclyon Judgment , which amounts to
fGOO. cxcluslva of costs , thus Increasing the
estimated overlap Just that much.

the best start In llfo Is a sound stomach.
Weak stomachs fall to ellgeiU food properly ,
because they lack llio proper quantity of
digestive acids ( lactic and hydrochloric ) and
peptogenlc products ; the most sensible rem
edy in all cases of Indigestion la to take
after each meal ono or two of Stuart's Dya-

pleasant , harmless form all the elements
that weak stomachs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab

except cancer of the stomach.
They Increase llesh. lusuro pure blood ,
