BUTCHER LITCHFORD IDENTIFIES HIM
Patrolmaa Lortnie Alao Says He la
Man Who Shot at Him After
Breaking Window tn
Jewelry Store.
?. C. Rogers, the man arrested Saturday
night on suspicion of being one of the two
highwaymen who ihot and killed Saloon
keeper Bert Forney, was Identified yester
day by. Charles W. Letchford as the man
who held hint op and robbed him tn his
butcher shop on South Main street on the
Bight of March 3. Patrolman Andrew Lor
men alio positively Identified Rogers as
one of the two men who broke In the front
window of Herman Leffert's Jewelry store
on Broadway, and while making his escape,
when pursued by the officers, turned and
fired at Lorensen.
When Rogers was brought from his cell
and confronted with Mr. Letchford he
dropped his head and had to be told to
look up in order that Mr. Letchford might
get a' good look at him. The moment
Rogers raised his head Mr. Letchford ex
claimed: I
"That Is the man who robbed me. There
can be no doubt about It. I am as positive
as I am that my name Is Letchford."
"When Letchford said this Rogers paled
perceptibly and again dropped his head.
Letchford then addressed Rogers, saying:
"You know me, don't you?"
Rogers answered that he had never seen
him before and to this Letchford replied:
"Oh, yes, you have. Tou know me welt
enough. You have good reason to."
Rogers mumbled something about Letch
ford being mistaken and he was taken back
to his cell.
" Mr. Letchford's experience with the man
who held him up and robbed him was quite
an exciting one and he had every oppor
tunity at the time to get a good look at
bis assailant. Letchford was sitting In his
meat market after having counted up his
day's cash and prepared to close his shop,
when a man entered the front door with
bis features partly concealed with a hand
kerchief. The fellow ordered Letchford to
bold up his hands and hand over the bag,
containing about $55, which was on the
bench beside him. After securing the
money the robber ordered Letchford at the
point of a revolver to go into a back room.
Letohford did as he was ordered and the
robber followed. Letchford succeeded in
wresting the gun from his assailant and
fired three shots at him. The fellow fell
over on a meat table and begged Letchford
not to shoot again, as ho waa already mor
tally wounded. Letchford, thinking be had
the man safe, went out onto the street to
secure help, and when he returned In a
minute or two the robber bad made bis
scape by Jumping through a rear window,
On which blood stains were found.
To Bo Exa.mln.e4 for Scars.
Rogers baa a long scar on the back of
fc.'s left, band, ! which may hve been caused
by a cut received when jumping through
Letchford's window. He will be examined
today to ascertain If be has any bullet
marks on his body, as Letchford waa al
most certain that one at least of the shots
he fired struck blm. Rogers was known
to be in Council Bluffs the day Letchford
was robbed,, but had not since been seen
In the city until three nights ago.
When the night detail reported for duty
last evening Rogers was again' brought
from his cell, and the moment Officer Lor
enxen set eyes upon blm he declared he
was the man who shot at blm the night
ot the robbery of Leffert's Jewelrj, store.
Rogers was then made to don bis overcoat
and black slouch hat, and when thus attired
Officer Lorenzen was more positive than
ever tn his identification. The revolvers
which the men who robbed Leffert's store
dropped in their flight were Identified by
their numbers as being two ot a large num
ber which had been stolen from a store In
Omaha a short time previously.
While the police have no direct evidence
Implicating Rogers In the blowing ot the
sate In the .office of the Evans Laundry
eomrrny on Pearl street two months ago,
they know that he was tn the city at that
time and that he and his partner were In
the laundry office that day, evidently sizing
up the situation'. His partner, said to be a
well known crook named Burr, is at pres
ent under arrest In Clinton, la., with five
burglaries charged against him.
Doubts . Aboat Chaaev.
James Chaney, the man who was playing
cards with Forney In the saloon the night
of the murder, and who is being held at
the city Jail as a state witness, has not yet
been shown Rogers. It Is understood be
will be confronted with him some time to
day, a will Wolf Lebovltch, the Main
street clothing dealer, who sold each ot
two men a red handkerchief the evening ot
the murder. The police have serious doubts
about CbaneV being able to identify any
one, as he was too badly frightened when
the shooting began.
The polioe feel confident that tn Rogers
they have one of the men who shot ard
killed Forney.' The man's arrest, it is sa...,
was brought about through a tip given the
authorities by a well known member ot
the sporting fraternity, who la said to be
well acquainted with the prisoner.

ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT HOME
Captala Palmer Writes Hot Springs
Sanitarians Contracts to Bo
Let May x.
i HOT SPRINGS, S. D., April 6. (Special.)
Captain Pslmer of Omsha, who Is a mem
ber of the governing board of the Na
tional Soldiers' home, has written regard
ing the letting of contracts tor the national
sanitarium and says he does not think
they can get the plans ready for letting
before May 1. The national board met at
New York April 1. when the arrangements
! for letting the contrscts were male, and
it was thought that the grading contract.
being much smaller than first figured,
would be let In conjunction with the build
ing contract. This, however, was to be de
termined at their meeting. As usual Cap
tain Palmer grew enthusiastic In his letter
and declared that he thought that there
would be three times as many buildings
erected ss planned for, and further says:
"Our capacity now planned for Is 450 men.
There are over 12.OC0 men In the hospitals
that ought to be sent to Hot Springs for
treatment. The plan Is first to Install our
civilian employes, doctors, nurses and help,
amounting to 150 persons, who will be per
manent residents ot this sanitarium. Then
to ship 450 men (so many from each home,
as far east as Togus, Me.), sending them
there for treatment with the hope that
they will be cured or greatly benefited,
so that they can give place to other men
within sixty or ninety days. As soon ss
they are cured or ready to move they wilt
be sent back again, and so we will have
men coming and going constsntly, probably
1,600 soldiers each way during the first
year. If we taka the men that are now
costing the government $350 per man out
of the hospitals and put them back Into tne
home where they cost only $157 to- the man
we are ssvlng for the government $22$ to
the man. If we cure the 500 Spanish
American and Philippine soldiers now tn
the national homes, nearly all under SO
years of sge, ws are saving the government
$206,600 a year. It we can demonstrate
that these men ran be cured or their condi
tion bettered st this ssnltsrlum we will
hive a population of 25,000 people In Hot
Sprlnns Inside of ten years."

FARM LABORERS ARE SCARCE
Bute Finds it Difficult to Sscurs Help on
Farmi at Various Imtititions.
PRIVATE PARTIES PAY HIGHER WAGES
Dlfllralty Is Experienced la Keeping
Inebriates at the Varloas Asy
lums, as the Law Permits
of No Restraint.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, April 8. (Speclsl.) The
state of Iowa Is for the first time finding
that It is difficult to maintain its small
army of employes at state institutions be
cause of the sharp competition from pri
vate demand for help, and at the state In
stitutions more difficulty ts experienced
than ever before tn securing competent
persons to assist In the work. At the var
ious Institutions this year much more land
will be farmed than ever before, as the
state board has added many hundreds of
acres to the state farms by resson of the
appropriations for that purposs made by
the last legislature. It ts found to be hard
to secure men to manage these farms and
especially to take the more responsible
positions because the price being paid by
farmers for help la so high. Old and com
petent employes are reported resigning
from the Institutions this spring to accept
employment elsewhere. This extends to al
most every department. The appropriations
made by the legislature for support ot the
Institutions Is found to be not sufficient so
that better wages can be paid, and the cost
of all materials and supplies made use of
by the state Is so much larger that the
estimates ot the state board as to cost have
to be watched with the utmost care to
prevent a deficit. The board finds It very
difficult to meet all expenses under the
circumstances.- The state will this year
raise a larger amount of food and animals.
The farm at the Industrial school at El
dora Is plentifully supplied with hogs and
a large number of pigs are being raised.
Cattle and horses and sheep are being
raised on many of the state farms snd there
is much fruit planted, so that in a few years
they will be more nearly self-sustaining
than before.
Many Inebriates Escaped.
The reports made to the State Board ot
Control from the state institutions show
that during the month of March there were
forty-four of the big colony of inebriates
who escaped from the Institution. The re
port shows that a hospital for the insane,
where there is no restraint whatever and
none Is allowed. Is not a fit place for the
keeping ot the victims of drink. The re
port shows that at the close of March there
were 103 inebriates at Mt. Pleasant, a
decrease of twenty-six during the month.
Six were returned from escapes, fourteen
were received for a first time, five were re
turned from parole, one was readmitted,
seven were discharged on governor's parole,
one was discharged on parole of the court
and forty-four walked away. At Cherokee
there are fifty-nine inebriates, an Increase
of six. Twelve were paroled and twenty
admitted a first time and only two escaped.
The Insane at Mt. Pleasant the first ot the
month numbered 895, an Increase of nine.
At Clarinda the Insane numbered 914, an
increase ot one. At Cherokee there were
(07 Insane, an Increase of. two. . At. Glen
wood there were 982 feeble minded, an In
crease ot four. At Eldora the inmates ot
the Industrial school numbered 614, an In
crease ot two.
Celebrated the Etsyht-Honi Day.
President Holden, of the State Federation
ot Labor, while engaged in work for the
bureau of labor statistics at Oskaloosa and
Bussey during the past week had a pleasant
experience in the last named city on the
occasion ot the fifth annual celebration by
the miners and other union laborers of the
beginning of the eight-hour day. The cele
bration was in the Methodist church, and
the pastor. Rev. Mr. Wilson, who was
formerly a member of the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen, had prepared an un
usually fine program for the occasion. The
laboring men made it a holiday tn Bussey
and the school children and the churches
and everybody participated. Rev. Mr. Wil
son presented the local union of miners
with a handsome oil portrait of John Mit
chell tn an ebony frame on a handsome
easel, and the union men nearly went wild
with enthusiasm. The Incident Is regarded
by President Holder as indicating the ex
tent to which the union movement Is tak
ing hold In Iowa and attracting the atten
tion of all classes.
New Maaaalne Experiment.
E. H. Rockwell, one of the most Insistent
of the Bryan democrats, who attended tho
banquet in Des Moines last week, an
nounced while here that he Is soon to
commence the publication at the little town
of Farmlngton, where he runs the Farm
Ington Herald, of a monthly magazine to
be called "The Christian," and to be run
"as Jesus Christ would edit It." It ts to
be edited In fact by M. L. Hostetter ot
Chilllcothe, Mo., who Is said to be a very
brilliant writer. The magazine will devote
much apace to tempersnce work.
Railway Accounts.
Dwlght Lewis, secretary of the railroad
commissioners ot Iowa, returned from Chi
cago where he attended the meeting of the
committee of the National Association ot
Railway Commissioners and assisted In the
preparation ot an extensive report on the
method of securing uniform accounts and
reports. The committee will have another
meeting In June to complete the report.
This committee will report to the national
association later and the report will be ot
vast benefit to all railroads ar.d to all rail
way commissioners.

surrounded a ranch near Cordele, Okl., and
captured six of the remaining outlaws ot
the Bert Cssey gang. The bandits were
surprised and taken without trouble, on
the charge of robbing the Leger bank ot

FAKE HAIR PREPARATIONS
Do Hair No Good, bat Oftea Cause It
to Fall Oat.
Many bair preparations are "fake" be
cause they are merely acalp Irritants. They
often cause a dryness, making the hair
brittle, and, finally, lifeless. Dandruff is
the csuse ot all trouble with hair. It ts a
germ disease. The germ makes cuticle
scales as it digs to the root of the hair,
where tt destroys ths hair's vitality, caus
ing the hair to tall out. To cure dandruff,
the germ must be killed. "Destroy the
cause, you remove ths effect." Newbro's
Herplcide Is the only hair preparation that
kills the dandruff germ, thereby leaving the
hair to (row luxuriantly.
We never tire of telling the story
of Uneeda Dlscuit. We do not
believe that lovers of good, whole
some food ever tire reading it.
Uneeda Dlscuit are the result of
two ideas. That soda crackers could
be made better than they had ever
been made before. That it was pos
sible to convey them to the home
fresh, crisp and clean.
The importance of the soda cracker
as an article of daily consumption,
made this worthy of extraordinary
effort. True, many people laughed at
the idea of so much thought time
labor capital, being devoted to a soda
cracker. But the greatest industries
of the greatest country iri the world
have been developed from smaller
things than a soda cracker, and so
it seemed worth while to make the
best soda cracker that could be
made and to place it on the table as
good as it had been made.
To do the first required the selec
tion of the best materials, of the best
equipment, the highest skill. To do
the second upset all traditions. The
oldest bakers said there wai no
way to keep a soda cracker good.

PEKIN, April 6. The report that the
United States is increasing Us Asiatic
squadron on account of alarming reports
on the situation tn China excites surprise
In Pekin. Such reports were not sent by
the United States or British legations
which possess good facilities tor judging
the situation in China.
The only disturbances considered rerlous
are those tn the Kwangsl produce, the
southern province of China bordcing Tun
kin, where 100,000 rebels are wald to be
under arms, but these persons are not mo
lesting foreigners. The latest reports re
garding General Tung Pu Slang, the
"Boxer" leader and Prlnca Tuan, the ex
iled anti-foreigner, who are at the head
of the Insurgent forces In thi northwestern
province of Kansu are reassuring. The gov
ernment claims to have cone to an un
derstanding with them whereby they agree
to refrain from hostilities. H Is believed
that the government is supplying them
with funds on condition that they remain
quiet.
The officials promise the foreign ministers
that the Indemnity bonds will soon be
signed, as they apparently have concluded
that tt will be Impossible to obtain any
concession In the terms of the Indemnity
until that formality is fulfilled.
The dowager empress and the court today
started on their Journey to the western
tombs. Thejj will be absent from Pekln
eighteen days. The masses regard the
pilgrimage with astonished disapproval and
predict that heaven will send disasters.
The United States consul at Canton tele
graphs that the famine in the Kwangsl
province, resulting from the rebellion, ts
serious. Thousands will die unless assist
ance Is forthcoming. He recommends that
relief funds be started abroad.
Many Ships la Orient.
WASHINGTON, Aprtl E. The United
States naval representation In the Orient
will be Increased materially as soon as the
vessels now under orders to proceed to
those waters arrive.
The Navy department, tn making this In
crease, contemplates squadrons in Asiatic
and Philippine waters under these beads:
(1) Vessels of the line ot battle, made up
of the battleships Kentucky, Oregon and
Wisconsin and the monitors Monterey and
Monadnock. All are now there except Wis
consin which sails from Puget Sound about
May 1.
(2) The cruiser squadron, made up of
New Orleans of the Asiatic aquadron and
Raleigh, now In the Caribbean sea, and
Albany and Cincinnati.
(S) A squadron made up of gunboats and
small craft designed especially tor service
in the smaller bodies ot water where the
larger ships, because ot their draft, are
unable to go.
The Idea of these squadron formations Is
a favorlts one with msny naval officers,
who to some extent have arranged Its
counterpart with the vessels ot ths Atlantic
fleet.

That no one expected it any way.
That people were satisfied to eat them
stale, as they had been in the habit
of doing. And so it fell to the lot
of younger minds to do this unheard
of thing to keep a soda cracker good
until eaten.
The result was the creation of the
In-er-seal Package with red and white
seal. An invention that kept out the
air, moisture, dust germs, that first
retained the natural flavor of the bis
cuit, keeping it crisp and fresh until it
reached the table, and so Uneeda
Dlscuit became a reality. The little
thing that seemed hardly worth while
became a great thing that seemed
hardly possible.
To-day over 300,000,000 packages
have been consumed by the thought
ful people of this country and the de
mand is ever increasing.
That is the story of Uneeda
Dlscuite Some day we will tell it
over again for the benefit of those who
are still "satisfied" with the stale and
broken crackers that come
in a paper bag, when they
can get Uneeda Dlscuit

I am organizing several person
ally-conducted excursions to
California, 'or April and May.
May I send you full particulars
of special advantages offered?
Some of the excursions are one
way only, in tourist sleepers,
for homeseekere.
Others are round-trip, in first
class Pullmans, for general
sightseers ; good, if desired,
on limited trains.
The rates are very low.
Accommodations are excellent.
I have selected the best Cali
fornia line the Santa L?

a delightful outing.
Why not go this spring and
see California at its prettiest?
Such an opportunity seldom
comes.
Don't miss it.
Write to E. L. PALMER. 40 Equitable

full particulars, with copy of beautiful
