The city authorities have decided to Invoke -
voko tlio aid of the courts to compel As
sessor Hnrdln , If possible , to make the as
sessment of Council Bluffs for the tax levy
of 1899. Yesterday afternoon City Attorney
! \Vadsvvorth filed n petition In the district
court ithklng that n writ of mnndanu.s Is
sue , ordering Hnrdln to forthwl'h perform
his duties ns assessor. The court Is also
n Kcd to Issue a mandamus compelling
County Auditor Innes to furnls'j Hnrdln
I with the plat books , aa provided by the
Code of 1897. The filing of the petition was
decided upon nt n conference hold by Mayor
Jennings , Alderman Sayles , chairman of the
finance committee , and the eliy attorney.
The petition Hied by the city sets out for
cause of action the election ot Hnulln ns
assessor and that he has failed lo perform
the duties of the office ns provided bv law.
The prajor of the petition asks that Hardln
proceed forthwith to make the assessment
ot the property In the city of Council Bluffs
for the joar 1SHD , as required by law , nnd
for such other nnd further relief na may bo
just nnd piopcr In the premises.
County Auditor Inncs , when informed ot
the action of the city , said ho did not see
how , even If the court ordered him to fur
nish Hardln with the plutbook , that IIP.
could comply so na to make It available for
this > ear's assessment. Ho thouijnl that It
might be possible with the expenditure of
a largo sum of money and the cmplojmcnt
of a number of extra clerks , that ! io pint-
book might bo gotten ready In a couple of
weeks or so.
A jear ago the Board of Supervisors pur
chased of Hardln his platbooks , which he
had been using for assessment purposes ,
pajlng him the sum of $500. Colonel W. F.
Baker , ex-chairman of the Boarl of Super-

Mis. Hettle Cole , living with her parents ,
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Wills , nt 1216 Avenue
C , will have a preliminary hearing before
Justice Vien this morning on the charge
of breaking and entering preferred against
her by Mia. Jamea Stoirler of 1214 Avenue
A Mrs. Storrlcr , who Is the wife of James
Storrlcr , a conductor on the Northwestern
road , is an aunt of Mrs. Cole.
The trouble arises over the loss of $1,200
last August , which represented Mrs , Stor-
rlcr's savings for three ana a half years.
This monc ) she had saved from her hus-
band's monthly earnings and she carried It
around in a pocket In her corset , as Stor-
rler was opposed to putting It in a bank or
loaning it on a mortgage. That Mrs. Stor-
rler had this money It is claimed was known
to the WUls family.
One day Mrs. Storrler was called upon to
ittend a friend who was at death's door
nd before leaving the house she placed the
noney under a stove in a closet. When
> ho returned late at night she found that
ho money , with the exception of $20 had
won stolen. 11,0 pocketbook vvaa on the
leer of the closet , rilled of its contents , and
icar the steve was one $20 bill , with the
orner 'torn off Mrs. Storrler vvas heart-
irokcn at the loss of the money and Stor-
cr blamed her for placing it where she
Id Mrs. Storrler's suspicions pointed to
ho membere of her sister's family and
rouble between the two families ensued
.ast November
Storrljr vvas arrested for
ssaurt nnd battery on Wills and his wife ,
ml the case- was finally dismissed.
Mrs Storrkr learned from some of the
c ghbors that Mrs Cole
, had been been to
nter her house during her absence and
arthcr she alleges she found out that Mrs
ole was spending money with a lavish
and. A detective was
engaged by Mrs ,
torrler to watch her niece
and It Vs said
at evidence will be produced to show that
rs Cole , after the
money vvas missed ,
hanged several $100 bills when purchasing
oods In this city and Omaha. The prose-
ution also claims to bo In possession of
pass key with which it is alleeea Mrs.
Cole obtained entrance to the Storrlcr homo ,
A warrant for Mrs. Colo's arrest vvas Is
sued jcstcrday nttrnoon and she was taken
Into custody last evening. She gave ball
In the sum of $1,000. On Mrs , Storrlcr's in
formation Justice Vlcn Issued a search war
rant for the premises occupied by the Wills
family , but a search by Constable Albertl
failed to reveal any of the missing wealth ,
Mrs. Cole was very indignant over her
arrest , which she nnd her attorney said
was an outrage. She stoutly denies any
knowledge ot Iho money nnd cralms her
aunt Is prosecuting her out ot spltework.
Mrs. Cole's attorney Intimated last night
that a suit for damages would bo brought
against James Storrlcr and his wife for the
swearing out ot the search warrant for the
premises ot Mr , nnd Mrs. Wills.

Few people realizeIn treating themselves
of Catarrh with the douche , snuffs , etc. , tbo
dangerous methods they employ. Catarrh
cannot be cured by euch treatment and U
more times made worse In point of the fact
that the lotjon or wash does not touch the
affected parts and actually destroyed the ad-
lacent healthy tissues. To reach Catarrh an
Internal remedy should bo used , acting upon
the mucous mambranea through the sjstem.
There Is no remedy which acU so promptly
und glvca ouch immediate relief as Cants'
Catarrh Tablets. They are taken internally
and euro because they act directly upon the
mucous membranes and surfaces through th
system. At druggists or by mall , COc , lull
