T" . II. Kunklln , llio young man who has
admitted lobbing the residence of R. II.
Uloomur Wednesday afternoon , will have his
Trcllnilnary hearing bcforo Judge Aylc-s-
wnrth in pollco court this morning. So far ,
with the exception of a couple of articles
of minor \nlue , all the goods stolen by
Tranklln have been recovciod.
After the young man's arrest in Omaha
lie was brought bide hero Thursday after
noon , but the fact that ho was in custody
was kept secret by the pollco. When con-
Irontcd by Mrs. Daw-son , a neighbor of the
nioomcrs , who had Been him leave tlie
IIOIIBO , bo broke clown and confessed to the
jobbery. Ho drew from his stocking tlio
watch that had been stolen and otfcicd to
ncrompany the officers to South Omaha ,
where ho said the booty had toeon secreted
by him. The olllcurs accompanied him there
nii.l returned about 11 o'clock with practi
cally all of the stolen goods In their pos-
fiosblon. The matter of his arrest was kept
Ecrrot until ho was placed behind the bars
nnd even the sergeant on night duty was
not aware that ho was In custody. The
reason for this , Chief Illxby explained yes
terday , was that they believed ho had a
IJ.irtner who was Implicated In the rob
bery. Franklin Is a young man not over 20
jears of ago and BayH ho ran away from hla
homo In California last September , when
tie came to Omaha , Ills parents hut re

CAMPAIGN OPENS UP EARLY
Aspirants for County Offices Begin to Show
ThemEolves.
CANDIDATES COMING BEFORE THE PUBLIC
I'rrarnt Incumbent * Willing in * rrvc
A Kill 11 niiil MoM of Them
Arc In the
HIICC.
Although it Is eight months before the
election will bo held many of the candi
dates who are out after the county offices
I ' > to bo voted on next November are already
In the field looking after their fences. Sev
eral of them have commenced an active cam
paign , this bolng particularly true of aspir-
unta to nomination on the republican ticket.
Except In one or two instances the demo
cratic candidates have not yet publicly an
nounced themselves , as this is generally con
ceded to bo a republican jear and In consequence -
| sequence there Is no great rush among the
ranks of the tinterrlfied after the privilege
of having their names placed upon their
party's ticket.
At the November election the voters of
I'ottawuttamlo county will bo called upon to
vole for n county treasurer , sheriff , county
school superintendent and two members of
the Hoard of Supervisors. In addition to
these olllccs they will also bo culled upon
to elect n state senator and two repre
sentatives. The present indications nro that
the campaign promises to ho n most lively
ono nnd that with the exception of county
treasurer the field of candidates will bo a
large one.
William Arnd , the present Incumbent of
the county treasurer's office has held the
position for two terms and so far no oppo
sition to his serving n third tlmo has de
veloped. It is generally conceded that ho
will secure u rcnomlnatlon.
With regard to the ofilco of sheriff H Is
.1 very different matter and there Is already
a largo number o active- candidates In the
field , all of whom are out redhot after the
nomination. John Morgan , the present
sheriff , has had two terms nnd Is willing to
servo the county for another two years nnd
has declared himself as out for a renomlna-
tlou. Two of his deputies arc also after
the nomination nnd have both for some
time past been building up their fences and
getting in their work among their friends.
The deputies anxious to succeed Sheriff Mor
gan uro Captain L. B. Cousins nnd Joseph
\Velghtmnn. Cousins is an old soldier nnd
will , It Is snld , undoubtedly have the sup
port of his old comrades. Welghtman has
served four years as a deputy under Sheriff
Morgan nnd has been for several yeara quite
prominent In local politics.
Edward Canning , who held the position of
city marshal and chief of pollco under the
late republican administration , has declared
hlmsolf n candidate for sheriff this fall. Ho
made n good record whllo serving RB chief of
police and Is sure of a largo following
among the railroad men of this city. Stove
Connor , president of the recently oragnlzed
Council Bluffs Republican club , Is also said
to bo out after the nomination for shorllf.
From the country districts It is reported
that Edward Slado of Avoca has ai-plratlons
that way and bus declared himself a can
didate.
For county superintendent of schools BO
far only two candidates have openly de
clared their candidacies , and they are B.
F. Cook of Carson and Prof. O. J. McManus
of Neola. The former hns had In times
past considerable experience as an educator
while the latter is at present superintendent
of schools nt Neola nnd an educator of much
prominence In the county. Prof. II. W.
Sawyer , the present incumbent of the of
fice , it Is understood , will be the nominee
of the democratic party.
As far as can bo learned no names have
been mentioned In connection with the Board
of Supervisors. The members whose terms
expire are Perry Kerney and H. C. Brandes.
The Iowa senatorial question , It is con
ceded , will enter strongly this fall into the
election of a senator from this district , as
It undoubtedly will throughout tlio entlro
state. Pottawattamle county comprises the
Nineteenth benatorlal district. The sena
torial fight , It is believed , will necessarily
engender some hard feeling , as the present
Indications are that the fight will be some
what of n bitter one. Hon. N. M. Pusey , the
present senator from this district , has dur
ing his term of olfico been one of the most
prominent legislators of the state , und his
friends will urge his renomlnatiou. So fur
It Is not nt all certain whether Mr. Pusoy
will ho n candidate for re-election. Colonel
C O. Saunders , ex-county attorney , Is In the
field for the nomination , and Is said to bo
by his friends a supporter of Mr. Cum-
mlngs.
Hon. L. P. Potter of Oakland , representa
tive from this district , was nt ono tlmo
said to bo in the race for state senator , but
Is now reported to have withdrawn and -nlll
not uvon bo a candidate for rcnomlnation.
0. M. Putnam of Grove township , the other
representative from this district , has stated
his willingness If his filends so dcslro it
to bo a candidate again this fall. J. L.
Blanchard of Avocn IB said to be anxious
to succeed Mr. Pnsey as state senator , and
has BO declared himself. What his prefer
ences nro as between Mr. Cuuiinlngs and
Senator Gear have not BO far been made
public.

Loronz'fl chickens was completed In the dis
trict court yesterday afternoon shortly after
the noon adjournment nnd the case given to
the Jury. Up to a late hour last night the
Jury had failed to arrive nt a verdict. Dur
ing the course of the trial the question ot
thu Identity of the stolen fowl had arisen
nnd In his closing argument to the Jury the
attorney for the defendants laid special
stress on this , claiming that It had not been
proven by the prosecution that the birds
found In their possession -\vcro the ones
stolen from Loronz.
Immediately ut the close of this case the
defendants were again placed on trial , this
tlmo on the charge of breaking Into n school

THE BEE WHEEL CONTESTS
The Mori- Hint nntpr flip Cniitcntn ,
tlic Cattlcr the Wlipcld Will
lie AViiu.
Every boy and girl will want to ride a
wheel this spring nnd The Bee U going to
give you n chance to got ono In a very
simple way What Is mure , It is going to
let you pick out any make wheel you want ,
for It knows you all want a certnln make ,
"which is the only mnko on earth. "
Now let us tell you how The Bee Is going
to glvo Uio wheels awny. We want a lot of
now subscribers to The Bee In Council
Bluffs. As soon ns the first 300 orders have
been handed Into our office , the first con
test closes and we will nwnrd the wheel to
the ono bringing the most orders out of
: his 300. TLen Contest No. 1 closes and Con
test No. 2 opens on the next 300 orders.
Just see how easy this Is. Say only thirty
girls and boys start out on , Mnrch 1 to get
subscribers. They only have to average ton
apiece to make the total , so the winner will
not have to get very many orders , you see.
You want to start In early and hand in your
orders as soon as possible.
Now about the orders. Each order must
bo for an actual new Council Bluffs sub
scriber. Each subscriber must take The Bee
for at least thieo weeks and pay for it in
order to be counted. It Is better , but not
necassary , to pay in advance , only no order
will bo counted until the subscription IB
pald _ for. If the subscription Is paid for in
advance It will count one on your score for
each three weeks for wnlch It Is prepaid.
For example : If a subscriber pays in ad
vance for six weeks , It counts two ; If ho
? nys for twelve weeks , it will count four ;
f ho pays for ono year , It will count seven
teen. On orders which are not paid In ad
vance It will count only one on your score
no matter how long he continued to take It.
There , thatis plain , Isn't it ? Now see
what you can do. The flrst contest begins
March 1. Sincerely yours ,

In addition to the Improvements already
leclded upon , the Omaha it Council Bluffs
Railway nnd Bridge company is planning
on replacing Its wooden trestle bridge over
udinu creek , at tlio corner of Broadway and
Thirteenth street , with si steel structure.
The plans are now being prepared nnd the
lew bridge will be so designed as to give
a greater waterway than was possible with
ho old trestle work. The present structure ,
situated ns It Is nt the curve of the creek
und containing a number of wooden piers ,
ias Invariably in the case of n freshet In
the creek prevented the free flow of the
wnter and formed a setback. This , with
lie iron bildges of the Northwestern in it1 ?
yurds nt Eleventh sticct , has been the
nnln cause of the creek backing up and
overflowing Its banks for several jcars past.
The now bridge proposed to bo put in by
ho motor company will materially lessen
the danger from this source , the more es-
icclnlly since the bridge on Broadway has
been raised.
As soon as the Union Pacific announces
ts willlngnoFs to commence work City En
gineer Etnyrc will begin the replacement
of the bridge over the creek at Fifth avenue -
onuo with ono of moro modern construc
tion.

Drnko foot ball team , has Just returned
from Chicago , where lie closed up u con
tract with A. B. Potter to coach the foot
hall team for next season. IJrnko came
very near losing Pottnr this jcar , us ho had
offers from Northwestern university , Kan
sas Stnto university , Nebraska unherslty
nnd other Institutions , but finally gave the
team that had made his reputation as n
coach the preference. Goodwin says ar
rangements are completed for a gmno with
Northwestern university for next fall. The
game Is assured , but the date has not yet
been decided upon. Ilowovar , it will be
played In tlio early part of the season.
The doctors of Ion a nro going to tnko In
the Paris exposition. The plan has been
made a cardinal jyolnt with the State Med
ical society. For more than two years
Secretary Coltenowor of this city und of
the medical society has had under tow the
jnoparatlons for the coming trip. Ho said
today that so far there nro 200 physicians
who have signified their Intention of taking
advantage of the opportunity to make an
Euiopean tour. Tlio trip Is not to bo con
fined simply to seeing tlio exposition In
Purls , but will Include side trips into Oer-

The collutiial Inheritance tux cnso from
Kcokulc , which Involves a recent decision ot
Judge Hank to the effect that any prop
erty of collateral ! lielrs which may be lo
cated In another stnto nt the tlmo the
owner dies Is not subject to the 5 per cent
tnx under the collateral Inheritance law of
Iowa. Is to bo appealed to the supreme
court. Hie suit was brought by the county
attorney of Leo county to collect the G per
cent tax on a valuable herd of stock be
longing to the WeavcT estate of Leo county.
Because the herd was stationed Just over
the stnto line In Missouri at the tlmo of
Weaver's death the collateral heirs resisted
tno tnx. Judge Bank holds that the prop
erty Is not subject to the tax because It
was not within tlio state. The treasurer's
department , when asked about the matter
today , stated that It Is likely an appeal will
bo taken. Though the revenue from the tax
In this cnoo is a small one , tlio principle
Involved is ono the state treasurer believes
should not bo loft -without the highest courts
ruling upon It. So many plans have been
resorted to In an effort to evade the tax
that the officers who have its collection In
charge believe in stubbornly contesting
every point. It Is understood that At
torney General Ilemloy bollo\e8 that the
lower court decision in the case Is not cor-
lect and favors an appeal. The question ot
appeal will be determined in a few days.
The etnto executive council today heard
the flrst tale of woe in the matter of rail
road assessments. W. E. Barnhart of Kan
sas City , tax commissioner for the Omaha &
St. Louis road , appeared to areuo for a de
crease in the ahscssment of that road for
this year. He contended that ? 4EOO , the
figure at which the road was assessed last
year , was too high and that at the outside
it should not reach more than $3,000 per
mile. This argument ho toscd on the as
sertion that the road is in n bad condition ;
that it is now In the hands of a receiver
and la telng operated by a committee of
bondholders with the hope that in the next
month matters will be adjusted and the
road turned over to the management of the
Pittsburg & Gulf line. Ho contended that
he rolling stock of the load is poor ; that
the roadbed is also in such a poor condition
hat It lias been impossible to maintain a
schedule of trains for some months past.
The only other small load which has noti
fied the council that it will appear Is the
TCcokuk & Western , which will present its
case next Wednesday.

HANDSOM , VA. , Dec. 31.
I have been sufTering from fe
male weakness for four years ,
and have taken m my medicines ,
but Wine of Cardui and Black-
Draught have done more for
me than anything else.
MRS. CAROLINE EVANS.
It is A mistake to take any and every kind of medicine
when you arc sick. There is danger in it. Most of the so-
called cures for "female weakness" do nothing more than
deaden the pain temporarily , and when the effect wears away
the patient is weaker and sicker than before. It is never wise to
take chances. You liavc only one life , and that is dear and
precious. If you have any pain , ache , disorder or weakness in
the feminine organs , nothing will help you like Wine of Cardui.
It helps do away with morning sickness during the early stages
of pregnancy , and modifies the pains of childbirth ! recovery is
rapid and future health is as.
surcd. The Wine is purely LADIES' ADVISORY DEPARTMENT.
