Court
August Schonlcber against whom, under
tho namo of Charles Miller the district
court grand Jury returned Indictments on
threo counts, was landed In Jail hero yester
day, having been urrcsted on a farm live
mtltw north of Logan by Sheriff Skclton of
Harrison county. Ha was brought to Council
Bluffs by OlUccrs D. K. Smith and Swanson
Bhonlohcr is charged with obtaining
by false pretenses a buggy and harness
from II. II. Vanllrunt, u graphophono from
the Swanson Music company and with em
bezzling a horso belonging to George W.
Lovejoy, a liveryman ou l'earl street. All
of the goods wcro found with him when ar
rested and he makes no denial of hU guilt.
Bhonlebcr while pursuing tbo avocatlcn of
a farm laborer appears to be a young man
of considerable versatility. Ten days ago
he camo to Council Bluffs from Iniogotie.
Kcprcscntlng himself as Charles Miller, the
nephew of a wealthy and well-known
farmer living n few miles cast of this city,
ho went to VanHrunt's warehouse and, It
Is told, purchased n buggy and harness,
ngrcnlng to pay for them on tho Saturday
following. He said his horso was In one of
tho livery barns. Having secured tho buggy
and hnrncss ho next went to Lovejoy's
barn to hire a horse. Here he In said to
have again represented himself ns Charles
Miller and stated that his horse which ho
had driven Into town had taken sick and
died. Ho explained that his business In
town was to purchase u new rig nnd that
ho had Just purchased one at VanHrunt's
place. Feeling that If Vantlrunt had sold
him a buggy and harness It would bo per
fectly safe to rent him a horso Lovejoy let
him have It. This was the last ho saw of tha
animal until It was brought back from
Logan yesterday by tho ofllcers.
Iltijit n TnlkltiK Mnrliliic
Having had such success In securing the
buggy and horso Shonlcbcr next went to
Swanson'a mii3lc store, where ho plcktd out
a graphophono nnd records costing ?22. He
was to pay for them tho follo-'liig Saturday
and referred Swanson to Vanllrunt. On tho
report given by Vanllrunt Swanson let him
tako tho graphophoue.
When Shonlcber, alias Charles Miller,
failed to -return with tho horso tho next
day, as promised, Lovejoy became suspi
cious and notified the authorities. Then
when "Charles Miller" failed to pay on
tho day promised for the buggy and har
ness and tho grapbophbne, nnd inquiry
showed that Farmer Miller had no nophow
of that namo. Van Brunt and Swauson also
filed complaints with tho police. It was
evident that the same man had negotiated
tho threo deals. Detective Weir soon had
a man named Churles Leland under arrest
on suspicion of being connected In tho
dcala with a brother. A. Leland. Later
It was found, that neither of tho Lelands '
wbb lmpllcatc'd and after ho had been hi
Jail for a week Charles Loland was re
leased. I
Tho attempt of Shonlebcr to sell tho ,
horse and buggy to a farmer near Logan
led to his discovery and arrest. Shonlcber
and tho farmer could new ngrco on tho
prlco and they drovo Into Logan to liiqulro
tho prlco of u now buggy, Buch as Shon
lebcr had to "sell. It happened thnt tho
person Inquired of was II. II. VanHrunt's
representative In that town and ho, at
onco recognized from tho description' that
the buggy was evidently th ono .ho had
received word about ns having been stolen
horo. Ho notllled the sheriff and Shonlcbcr
was taken Into custody early yesterday
morning. Ho at onco admitted ho was the
man wanted.
To tho police hero Shonlcber nald that
a short tlmo ugo ho worked the same deal
In St. Joseph' nnd secured a horso nnd
buggy, but, becoming frightened, left tho
rig a few miles outsldo of the city und
telephoned to tho owner, whero thoy could
nnd It. Ho said that after coming to
Council Bluffs he met a man In n saloon, to
whom ho 'confided his St. Josoph experience
nd that the stronger told him this was
about tho easiest place In tho country to
work such a trick. Ho said that uftcr he
nd the stranger had had n drink tho
former took him arid showed him Van
Brunt's warehouse as being tho best plneo
to get tho buggy and then, after onothcr
drink, to Lovejoy's barn, whero thq stranger
aid he could get a horso without any
difficulty. Getting tho graphophono was
his own Inspiration, ha said. Shonlcber
said his home was In Duhiiquo.

(From a Stnff Correspondent,)
DES MOINES, Nov. 17. (Special. )-It la
confidently assorted that an end has nt
last been reached In tho long litigation
over tho location of a courthouso In Des
Moines and that tho courts will not further
Interfere with tho county authorities In tho
construction of a new (500,000 courthouso
In Dcs Moines on tho site of tho old one.
Tho last week the county offices have all
been moved out of tho old ruin which has
stood for about thirty-five years and have
been located In an office building rented
for tho purposo ou Third atrcot. Tho
courts will open on Monday In the tem
porary quarters of tbo county. Tho Jail
will bo removed from tho old quarters In
a few days. Tho old building, originally
erected about ISO'., had been added to ma
terially about twelve years ago, but Is In
such poor condition that It was positively
dangerous to tho county officials nnd tho
records. The plans for tho new building
havo not been fully completed, nor Is It
known Just what material will bo used.
The county will lot tho contract for about
$100,000, but It Is expected that nearly or
quite $500,000 will bo expended on tho
courthouso bctoro It Is finished. A move
ment has been started to have It con
structed partially of granite and if this is
done It will bo much more cxpcuslvo than
at first planned. Tho work of demolishing
tho old houso will commenco soon. When
tho last scries of suits was commenced It
was agreed that they should end the legal
controversy and tho location Is now dis
posed of. Ono Injunction suit pending will
probably bo disposed of this week without
much ceremony. It has been decided that
the county Jail shall not bo built with tho
courthouse, for fear of ni Injunction, ns
tho matter of a Jail was not Included in
tho cnll for a special election to paBU on
tho bonds.

It Is expected that by Tuesday evening
the roster of companies of tho Iowa Na
tional guard will havo been filled by the
organization of a now Company A, Fifty
first regiment. In Des Moines. This Is now
tho only vacancy In the guard. After the
Inspections last spring Company A was
found deficient and was mustered out.
There had been soveral efforts at reorgan
ization, but It was finally decided that an
entlro new company would havo to bo or
ganized before Des Moines could retain
this place In the guard. A now company
Is being organized, composed largely of
boys from tho West Side High school. A
sufficient number of signers to tho roll
has been secured and physical examina
tion will bo had on Monday evening and It
Is believed the new company will be mus
tered In on Tuesday evening. An effort
will also be made to organize a battery
n Dcs Moines at nn early date.

' Tho first meeting of the ncwly-organlzcd

was asked to preside. The organization
was effected with President MacLcan of
the university as president. The papers
and discussions wero of a high order and
by prominent educators and preachers of
tho state without regard to denomination.
Other meetings will be held from tlmo to

that much good will come out of tho move
ment.

At tho meeting of tho State Board of

the chief attention will be given to tho

One of tho members of the stato board
made a personal Investigation nnd since
then has been In correspondence with tho
local physicians nt Tama nnd tho roport will
tndlcnto that tho condition of the Indians
Is a serious matter. As yet no case '
among tho whlto pcoplo In thnt part of I

It Is belloved that by continuing tho pros- I
ent strict quarantine the opldemlc may

At an early date tho Board of Supervisors
of this county will tako up tho matter of
purchasing voting machines for tho' ontlro
county and It Is bollevcd thnt before an
other general election machine will ba In
stalled. Tho state has a board to pass on
tho efficiency of any machines which may
be purchasod and when this board approves
them thoy are legal In Iowa. Tho last elec
tion taught tho people tho necessity for
mnchlnrs nnd tho sentiment Is strongly in
favor of making tho Innovation ns booh as
It can bo done. It Ib expected that If a
start can be mado hero In tho most pop
ulous county of tho stnto tho change will
be taken up all over Iowa.

Scientific Kiiiliiiiulloii of Why Sonic
I'cople Arc I.ef f-llnnileil.
It Is a well-known 'fact, says tho London
Optician, that the stronger activity of tho
nerves of tho right hand ot the body (for
not only tho hand Is concerned) must bo
ascribed to a preponderance of tho left side
of tho brain, whose finer development, es
pecially lib the Hoat of tho center of speech,
Is u matter of common knowledge.
In a paper by Dr. LilddecketiH In1 tho All
KemeltifiS Journal der I'hrmachcrkunHt
valuable Information regarding tho causes
of tho uneiiunl working of the two heml
sphcreH.of the brain Is furnished, A skutch
touching on the history of evolution leads
from tho original nymmotry of the organ
ism to a subsequent symmetrical arrange
ment of tho heart and tho large blood ves
sels, from which It follows quite naturally
that the two halves of. thu head uro not
placed ou nn equal footing as regards tho
distribution of tho blood and consequently
of tho blood pressure, und that, on the con
tiary, theru must be, under normal coudl
tllns, a stronger pressuio on the arteries of
the left sldo of thu head..
This theory is borne out by well-known
expcrlonceH of anntomlstH and pathologists
nnd n series of Interesting observations. Of
especial Intoteat Is tho effect of the higher
blcod pressure upon the left eye. Dr. Lud
dccketiH found In tho latter, as compared
with tho right one, In a surprisingly larGo
number of cases, u narrower pupil in con
sequence ot a more llllcd-up condition of
the vcsyols of Ins. and upon closer exami
nation a chorter construction ot" the eyeball.
This furnishes reason tor tho fact that in
a largo number of persons tho left eye Is
thu better ono. Thus the liner develop
mont of the loft half of tho brain Is ex
plained verv olinnly by the fact that It la
better supplied with blood and the question
why It Is tho seat of the center of spocii
and why most people aro right-handed Is
solved In the most natural manner.
It Is striking how true a reflection of the
conditions described Ih nfTorded by tho ex
amination of left-handed persons. In many
cases a i odder color was noticeable on tho
right sldo of the face; tho light oyu was
built shorter; its pupil narrower; In short,
everything points Jo a better blood supply
on tho right sldt of the brain, which, In
consequence. Imparts to tho left sldo of thu
body the preponderance over tho right one,
a condition styled Icft-hntulcdncss. In close
connection thereto is the habit of mrst
left-handed pcrxonti to sleep ou tho left side
in the unconscious endeavor to relluvu thu
light half of their liraln, which Is mnro
charged wlih blood during tho day. For
right-handed persons the position on tho
right side Is the normal one for tho tnino
reason.

Iir.AltlHOI) CHICAGO WOMAN.
KubliliiK III Remove Soot Cnuaas
Wtiiftkcrn to, Sprout.
Is tho normal Chicago woman n bearded
woman? Or, If sho isn't now, will sho be
BO?
Tho answer Is "Yes," If tho dermatolo
glsta are to bo believed. According to
their theories aa borne out by their ex
perience tho tlmo Is not far distant when
It will becomo tho practice nmong Chlcngo
women to wear beards, for the reason that
It will becomo too grcnt nn operation to
havo them removed. The faces of Chicago
women aro becoming hirsute.
"One not a member of our profession
would bo amazed at tho rapldty with which
Chicago women are developing this ten
dency," declared a dermatologist to a Chl
cngo Tribune reporter. "A fe.w years ago
a mon who made a living or wanted to
make one removing hair from tho face
would have starved here. Today wo keep
several men busy nt It In this single es
tablishment. In New York, In Boston, In
our other establishment, we consider such
cases rare. In Chicago It Is fast becoming
our chief business. So It Is in PlttBburg.
And I enn enslly toll you why. It Is be
cause of tho uso of poor soap.
"There Is no known chemical that will
mako hair grow whero nono was before and
no chcmlcnl thnt will kill hair. But there
arc substances that will stlmulatu the
growth on certain places. Tho lip, tho
chin, tho sides of the face, all have moro
or less flno down In every person. This
down Is stimulated by the frco alkali In
Imperfectly aged Boap.
"The reason this happoiiB so much In Chl
rago and Pittsburg Is because in those
cities there Is so much soot in the ulr that
constant hard rubbing Is necessary to keep
tho fnco at nil clean. Women nro con
stantly washing their faces, nnd thus they
rub In thu alkali and start tho hair. Tho
rubbing, forming Just the proper mnssago
that' hair needs to mako it grow Its best,
aids In tho work, and as a result a well
defined mustache, nnd even chin whiskers,
soon appear on tho face where nono grew
before.
''That the use of poor soap Is responsible
for much of this Is proved by experiments
In our business. BuL It Is Illustrated overy
day In tho country women who como to tho
city and who are seen to havo hairy faceB,
Did you ever know n farmer who bought
toilet soap? Not one. They uso lnundry
soap all through tho houso. This soap Is
full of frco alkali, and these women use It
and become hirsute.
"Laundry soap Is made In tho flame kettle
with toilet soap, but the latter Is taken out
and milled ground up nnd treated to re
move tho excess alkali and to age It and It
then loses most of Its bad tendency. But
even with toilet soup thus made the con-
slant mnBsage from frequent hard scrubbing
of sooty faces Is bound In tlmo to develop
mustaches on them.
"Scarcely a day passes that somo woman
docs not como In here for trentment nnd ex
press the greatest surprise that her face
hOB doveloped such a tendency. 'Why, I
never had n mustache before,' sho will say.
And It Is a fact. And sho wouldn't havo It
now In an ordinary city, but In Chicago sho
would bo unusually fortunnto If she es
caped It.
"A gentleman who had been nway from
Chicago for two or three years camo back
the other day. A day or two after ho came
back I met him on tho street. Ho ppoko of
It nt once.
' 'Whero did all the bearded ladles eomo
from?' he demanded. 'It seems as If every
woman I moot has whiskers.'
"It certainly behooves Chicago women not
only to look to their soap, but to Join In a
clean city loaguo and aid In suppressing tho
smoko nulsaneo nnd In keeping the dust off
tho stroots. Tho women havo taken somo
Interest In this before, but thoy must do It
now as a moasuro of beauty preservation,
nnd when a woman takes such measures sho
generally accomplishes what sho Is aftor.
"Thero Is but one way In which hucIi hair
can bo removed and that is by electricity.
Electricity skillfully applied will kill the
root, but no chemical will."

ties of the Dominion of Canada, endeavor

other American marksmen nro reluctant to

nnxtous to deliver It to the Canadian shoot

General Spencer said todny that ho had

"True," admitted the fakor.
"Well, It didn't help mo a little bit."
