Compel llrr to Deliver the Con

In llnrkiiens.
Mrs. Alice Johnson of 1817 West llroad
way was held up at tho point of a revolver
and robbed by a footpad last night nt 9
o'clock, nt tho corner of Fourteenth street
and llroadway.
Mrs. Johnson Is 60 years of age. Sho
lives with her son-in-law's family and
was on hor way homo from uptown, where
sho had been to buy groceries and other
supplies. As she neared Fourteenth street,
on llroadway, she noticed a man at tho
corner, but did not suspect anything wrong.
Sho was about to cross the street when the
fellow called: "Stop a minute. I want to
sco you."
Mrs. Johnson tried to pass on, but tho
fellow seized her by tho cape, at tho samo
tlmo thrusting a revolver Into her face.
"you will havo to glvo mo all tho money
you havo with you," he said. "
"Hut, mister, I havo not got nny money;
I havo spent It buying these groceries," re
plied tho frightened woman, and tho fellow
started to feel for her pocket. Not being
ablo to find It, ho ordered her to put hor
packages on tho sidewalk and take her
purso out of her pocket. Mrs. Johnson, too
frightened to refuse, handed tho follow her
pockctbook. From It ho took tho contents,
?S, and handing her back tho empty pursa
Btarted on a run down South Sovcnth
street.
Tho place whoro tho holdup was com
mitted Is very dark and Mrs. Johnson was
so alarmed sho was unable to glvo the
pollco a clear description of the footpad.
Charley Sutherland, a young lad of Elev
enth street nnd Avenue 13, saw tho fellow
standing at Fourteenth street and Uroad
way and gavo tho officers a fair description
of tho man. Tho police suspect he Is ono
of tho tough characters who hang out at a
saloon In that neighborhood.
At the Klk
building dedication everybody admired tho
fine tono of tho beautiful piano In the lodge
room, which could bo heard distinctly all
through tbo building. Uourlclus Music
Houso was complimented from all sides
for furnishing tho Elks with an Instrument
so bcfltttlng to such an elegant structure.

Inir Aosoclntlon flucsslnK.
Stockholders In tho defunct Western
Iowa Uulldlng association of this city axo
Indulging in considerable speculation as to
what has become of the hulk of tho money
they paid Into the concorn. Receiver Itoss
has been unable to locate It and tho present
prospects aro that the stockholders will not
rccclvo more than 25 cents on tho dollar.
The National Building association of
Council Hluffs was organized, In 1891, tho
officers being1 residents of this city. Tho
narao of tbo organization was found to bo
unsuitable and It wns changed to that of
tho Western Iowa Building association. For
a few years It did a thriving business, but,
Ilko many similar Institutions, It had Its
day. Ono by ono tho stockholders pulled
out, until a llttlo over a year ago it had
to BUBpend operations nnd Dillon Itoss was
appointed receiver by tho courts.
Hocolvor Itoss has managed up to dato to
reallzo J4.000 on sorao mortgages hold by
tho association, but has been unable to se
curo trace of any further property or as
sots. Tho stockholders who remained In
tho concorn until it suspended paid In
$11,600. Thoy nro wondering what has be
come of this money, op at least of tho t7,000
difference between what Hecelver Itoss has
realized and tho cash thoy paid In.
A meeting of tho stockholders was held
yestorday In tho office of tho receiver and
the sltuotlon was discussed, but no action
was decided upon. Tho matter of bringing
suit against the officers of the defuntt con
cern was discussed, but tho stockholders
were generally of the opinion that It would
be useless. Tho stockholders, howovor,
gave It as their opinion that tbo officers
should at least bo ablo to glvo some ex
planation of whore the money went to. If
It was lost In making bad Investments thoy
would like to know It, evon though it would
not help them recoup their losses nny.
An attempt will be made by the receiver
to get this Information from the former
officers of tho association and' ho will re
port back to the stockholders nt a meeting
next week.

The Board of Supervisors took final ac
tion on tho smallpox bills yesterday and
adjourned until tho June Bcssion.

off another 1100, this amount representing
his fees for attending A. D. Van Horn and

tho board decided that ho was well able to
bear tho cost of medical attendance himself,

Tho State Board of Health Is In receipt
ot complaint from tho State Medical school
In connection with tho State university,
that It has been tmposstblo under tho new
stato law to securo a sufficient number ol
bodies for dissecting purposes in operating
rooms of tho colleges of tho state. The
Stato Medical school has usually acquired
ubout eighty bodies a year for dissecting
purposes. A stato law was passed which
put a stop to tho irregular traffic In bodies
and provided u method of securing bodies
legally, and for equitable distribution of
tho number of avallablo bodies among the
medical colleges of tho stato according to
tho number of students enrolled. Tho Stato
Hoard of Health has prepared tho reeula-
tlons under which these bodies aro secured
The collcgo nt Iowa City claims to havo
received only about twenty-five bodies last
year, when a much larger number was
needed. A good many of tho bodies arc
received from tho south and aro those of
negroes, but thoy nro not as easily obtained
ns boforo becauso of the fact that Investi
gations aro being mado in many southern1
states.

fire the council .today 'nnd showed that In
one district ln Des Moines, tho business
district, tbo assessment as mado by the
deputy assessors has been Increased in
