Two little boys living on the south tide
were called before Judge King a day or
two ago for stealing a email quantity of
Iron from a railroad company and, while
one was discharged, the eldest was sent
to the county jail for thirty days. The
arrest and trial of these youngsters called
the attention of the officials of the lty to
the necessity for an ordinance governing
Junk dealers. Councilman Martin secured
the passage of a motion by the council
Tuesday night for the preparation of -an
ordinance by. the city attorney for the gov
ernment of Junk dealers. The Idea i to
have all dealers In Junk make regular re
ports to the rhlef of police as to purl
chases and also give the names of the per
sons selling Junk. It has been suggested
that the ordinance governing junk dealers
bow In fores la Omaha be copied as far as
possible.
, "If this ! done," said Councilman Mar
tin, "the will be lees stealing of scrap
Iron from the railroad yards and the po
lice will then have control over all Junk
dealers doing business In the city. As It Is
sow a junk dealer can locate a pile of scrap
Iron along a railroad track and then for a
few pennies hire email boys to carry the
stuff to his place of business. In the case
In polios court the other day I am firmly
convinced that the Junk dealer was wore
to blame than the boys who carried the
Iron to the Junk shop. It was the dealer
who should have been punished Instead of
the boys, and I think an ordinance like the
one Intended will be a good thing for the
city."
It is understood now that all difficulty
about the purchase of a site for the library
has been settled. The city attorney has
contended all along that the library board
and not the council should purchase the
site. The members of the council have
finally admitted this, after having been
shown the law on the subject. For this
reason , the bids sent to the council will be
returned and when the board organizes It
will advertise for a site.
While the Intention of the city Is to issue
bonds for the purchase of a suitable tract
of land for the proposed library no ordi
nance has yet been drawn. City Attorney
Lambert holds that bids should first be re
, oetvso. and the site ascured by option. Then
the exact amount of the bonds to be voted
can be definitely stated In the ordinance
and the Issue made according to legal re
quirements. New Appalataaaats Repaired.
Owing to the defects la the appointment
of nine members of the Library board made
by Mayor Kelly at the council meeting
Tuesday night the appointment will have
to be made ever again. At least, this is
the opinion given by the city attoraey yes
terday, when his attention was called to
(be wording of the document. According to
;he official applntment the terms of Dr.
rt'hlte, Mrs. Carroll and Mrs. Lane do not
ommence until July 1. City Attorney Lam-

,C womanly health would be esteemed
as priceless by thousands ef suffering

The secret of womanly health is In
keeping the womsnly organism in a per
fectly health state. This can be done
by the vsc oc Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription. It regulate the periods, dries
debilitating drains, heals inflammation
and ulceration, and cures female weak
ness.' It makes weak women strong and
sick women well. .
Women Buffering from chronic forms

Dr. Pierce's Pleasant, Pellet (V tOi;
bert, in looking over the ordinance creating
the board, held that possibly ths appoint
ments for the two snd three-year terms
were valid, but that the terms used In the
appointment did not give the three persons
earned any authority to act until July 1 of
the present year, therefore, he claims that
ths board will be inoperative until that
time.
"The only way out of the difficulty," said
the city attorney, "Is for the mayor to
make the appointments over again at the
next meeting of the council."
This will most likely be done. When
the attention of the mayor was called to
the error in ths wording of the document
yesterday he made the request that nothing
be said about the matter, as he thought
that the error could be corrected without
any further publicity. The intention has
been to have the members of the board meet
and organise at oace and advertise for
bids for' a site. Now that this error has
been discovered the organisation will have
to go over until new appointments are mads.
Msyor Kelly said that the announcement
making the appointments was drawn In a
hurry and that the error would be corrected
as soon as possible.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 19. The State de

indicate thst the Paris publication to the
effect that she hsd been set at liberty Is, to
say ths lesst, premature. It is gsthered.
however, from the reports of the L'nlted
States diplomatic agents thst the woman
Is likely to be relessed very soon and thst
the delay Is explained by the requirement
of the brigands that they be given ample
opportunity to hirjre tbelr own safety.
LONDON, Feb. 19. A dispatch from Seres,
European Turkey,, to the Dally Telegraph,
says that W. W. Peet. treasurer of the
American mission at Constantinople has

stantinople, and Dr. House, the missionary,
who are still at Seres, are growing very
anxious at the delay In the release of the
captives, which was expected a week ago.
The Turkish government declines responsi

as the transaction with the briganda was
made wlhout Its knowledge.

to confirm the story published in Paria that
Miss Stone and her companion bad been

Rev, Dr. Judson Smith, secretary of the

"We expect that the moment suthentlc
news is known in Constantinople that Mies

Concerning the arrest of Rev. Mr. Tsllka,

Is to love children, and no
home can be completely
happy without them, yet the
ordeal through which the ex
pectant mother must pass usually is
so full of suffering, danger and fear
that she looks forward to the critical
hour with apprehension and dread.

DOU'T TRIFLE WITH HARMFUL DRUGS.
TAKE NATURE'S OWN MEDICINE.
Nature provides a cure for everything if we know
where to look for it, and SMITH'S OREEN
MOUNTAIN RENOVATOR is a medicine
of her own making.
Among; the roots .nJ herbs which grow in old Vermont tnere ire
some which have been shown by experiment And experience to be the
best, quickest and Sliest cures for blood troubles malaria rheumatism
scrofuU and all ailments of the liver, kidneys and stomach that Is to
say more than ninety per cent, of alt known diseases.
These roots and herbs are compounded in Smith's Green
Mountain Renovator and offered to you as the best medicine,
which can be made. As a matter of fact it isn't made at all it Is
simply compounded skillfully and scientifically. '
Any dealer in medicines will tell you that New England and par
ticularly the State of Vermont Is one of the hardest places in the world
to establish a business. The people up in that section of the country
are very careful what they buy decline to buy new thing tnd never
make two purchases of an unsatisfactory article. Yet up in Northern
Vermont you will find that almost everybody uses Smith's
Green Mountain Renovator and on every hand you will
hear words of the highest praise for it.
This has been the case for more than twenty-five years, and this
remarkable medicine has grown stronger and stronger in popularity as
the years go by, although, until its present owners got hold of it it
has been advertised only by word of mouth.
This proves better than pages of argument that here we have a
medicine that meets every possible requirement 3.i is really good and
reliable.
You ought to use it for yourself and your family. We are glad to
be in a position to offer it to you and to recommend it.
When the unmistakable signs that your blood is out of order appear
take Smith's Green Mountain Renovator at once. The
bad complexion the dull eye the lack of strength and endurance, the
loss of vigor all tell the story of impure blood. Pains in the back rheu
matism, constipation and all other diseases due to the liver and kidneys
can be immediately relieved and permanently cured by this purely veg
etable product of the Green Mountain State. ,
It istfvt first and foremost duty that yew owt to yourself aoat your family to ate that
everybody is kept well, ani you ought further to tea that no harmful, dangerous drugs
arc used.
This medicine la ths safest aad best for every member of the family, young or old.
It is a renovator of the entire system.
Of course, you want blood that b purity itself, and you wint sound, firm flesh, strong;
muscles and nerves, and clear complexion and a continual feeling of brightness and
cheerfulness. These all coma from the use of Smith's Green Mountain Ren
ovator, and if you will give ft a trial you will say, as thousands of others do, that no
