' a An METER STOLE FROM KITCHEN Thief Carries Away Prepayment Rear later from Van Stan Reatnnrnnt. .When' Mrs. .W. R. Vaughan, who con ducts a small restaurant at 838 West Broadway, arose yesterday morning to pre- . pare breakfast she was surprised to find , that the gas stove failed, to work. There was no gas, but It waa some time before Mrs. Vaughan discovered the cause.- In vestlgatlon showed . that the meter was missing and that the gas had been turned off. The meter was a . "prepayment" one. the supply of gas being obtained by drop ping a quarter In the slot. As t had been some time since the company bad tapped the meter. It ' Is supposed that there waa quit a little sum of money in It. Mrs. Vaughan is at a loss to account for the disappearance of the meter, except on the theory that some enterprising Individual 'carried it off during the night for the pur Dose of securing the money from It. The meter rested on a shelf in the little kitchen. near the celling, and the fact that the kitchen dopr leading into the back yard was found unlocked yesterday morning confirms Mrs. Vaughan' s suspicions that th machine was stolen, by some person acquainted with the premises. Mrs. Vsughan and her children sleep In a room adjoining the kitchen and she can not understand how the- thief managed to enter the place, turn off the gaa and then detach ' the meter without arousing her. Th gas company on being notified of the theft of the meter- made a search of the creek bed and bank back of the build in, auanactlns: that ' the thief would, as soon us he secured the money from it. throw the meter away. No trace, how ever, of the missing meter could be found, The matter waa reported to the police and . they are new working on the case.

Bowman, the owner of the lot In question, which is located on Broad way, near Thirteenth street, did not look with favor on being again taxed for the Improvement of this thoroughfare and he so Informed Mayor Macrae while the "two were discussing the matter yesterday. Mr. Bowman stated that he purchased the lot in 1887 for $450 and had since then paid $473 In taxes on it and that the proposed new pavlpg would mean practically the conflsca " tlon of the property. "Why. I would sell the lot for $50 if I could only get a purchaser for it at that price." exclaimed Mr. Bowman. "Well. I will give you $50 for the lot," re plied the mayor, he' drew hi check book from his pocket. "If yours," promptly asserted Mr. Bow man, and the deal was closed there and then, with the exception of making out the deed, which will be dona today. Now', it happen that th lot which the mayor thu acquired la at least five feet below grade and one of. the aldermen, when he learned of the deal, stated he would at the. next meeting of the Board of Health Insist that the property be filled and brought to grade on the grounds that In Its present condition it was a receptacle for stagnant water and a menace to the public health. ...

A complete reorganisation of the police department of this city was further hinted at by the resignation of George Yaeger, one of the detectives. The department has been severely criticised In some sections of the city because of Its declaration that two deaths recently were from' suicide when the coroner's Jury declared them murder, and further for failure to capture any of the murderers In half a dozen recent cases where there were no eye witnesses to the crime.

Sapreme Conrt Meet. The second period of the September term of the supreme court will be convened Tuesday morning at o'clock. There will be no cases presented from Pottawattamie county at this period. Pottawattamie cases are on the calendar to be submitted at the third period which convenes Novem ber 14. Michael Grady today appealed to the United States court the certiorari case from this county. He was convicted with others of Jury bribing in prominent cases In this county. Will Paeh Pare Food Bill. Members of the Iowa Retail Grocers as sociation have called upon State Dairy Commissioner H. R. Wright and Informed him that at th coming session of the legislature they will support a pure food bill. At the last session of the legislature they passed resolutions endorsing the bill but the officers of the association went be fore the committee and opposed it. This time the members say the officers will be prevented from taking this action. They claim that the officers did not represent the sentiment of the members of the association and are now offering to give the bill support. As the action of the officers of the grocers association in siding with the wholesalers was the chief factor In defeating the bill at the last session there is hope on the part of the dairy com missioners that the bill will pass the com ing legislature with this support. Conference Asjalnat Rnles. There will probably be no conference of the colonels and captains of the National Guard of this state with a view to Influ encing the members of the general assem bly to appropriate an Increase of $30,000 a year to the use of the guard. That was the plan, but It was discovered today that there Is an army regulation against any such action and so the conference will be cut out. It Is proposed, however, to recom mend to the general assembly, through the adjutant general's report, that the increase in the appropriation be made.

Police Commissioner McAdoo of New York, in appointing a number of new police men the other day, took occasion to add a few don'ts to the customary advice. A few samples follow: Don't be a politician; be a policeman. I want that drummed right Into you. A a citizen, you can be a democrat or a republican or a member of the Moon Own ers league, or anything else you want, but aa a policeman be a policeman. Don't let anybody in New York or out of it intervene for the shadow of an In stant between you and what you know to be your duty. Tho moment a man on the police force becomes a politician Instead of being a policeman, he Is worse than use less. He Is working a pull on the commis sioner. He won't stand out on his merits, and he Is always looking to see how the wind Is blowing; when will they get rid of McAdoo? When he Is put up against a public wrong, when be ought to act promptly, his arm Is paralysed because somebody will whisper to him that he will get Into trouble if he Interferes with it. Don't be dreaming about what will hap pen tomorrow. You will all be dead to morrow. You live today. I live this mo ment that I am talking to you. I am not going to stand hers and aay these things to you thinking that somebody may be of fended tomorrow, or pleased. I am telling you the square truth, because I don't care what is going to happen tomorrow. If I can take a chance, you can. Don't get too friendly with criminals; don't get friendly with criminals at all, except so far as It helps you as a police man to get facts. You ought to know them, know the criminal class well, but don't get friendly with them. Don't be too good a fellow. I have had men In large batches of promotions I have turned down one or two men. I was sorry to do It. I am sorry now I had to do It. and will tell you why I turned them down. They were too good fellows. They had never said "no" In thirty-five years of police life. Any good friends could come along and tell them what they wanted, and they would get It. Be a good fellow of course we are all good fellows but have a "dead line" where you don't cross for any good fellow. Don't be too amiable. I have men come before me for promotion and everybody comes In and tells me what a fine man he Is oh, a delightful man; never hit his mother or kicked his children. That never amounts to anything at all when I know he Is a man of no possible character; he is a man without conscience and he has no as- sertlveness. Don't be afraid of a little extra work and don't kick. I have got a lot of men here on the mall carts. No man In New York sym pathises anjr more with them than I do; no man would take them off more quickly than I would If I could. They are away from their families and It Is hard, very hard. It is extra work, but don't kick about extra work. Don't get to be too fine a specialist. Sup- pose you are put en traffic duty. There Is a man over there being assaulted, a woman being Insulted, a cry of "Stop thief!" down the street; 'don't let me find you saying. "Oh, that Is none of my business; I am on the crossing here; that Is the business of the man on post." Don't have that disposi tion to shirk a little extra duty. Be a policeman all the time. Don t say, because you are on a post where there are burglaries, "Well, that is for the detectives; the detective bureau has got to do that; that Is none of my business; I will do the best I ran trying my doors, and I am not going to play detec tive." You will never make any progress on the police that wsy. Don't lose enthusiasm. When a police man gets stale, and no longer takes Inter est In the position, and Is no longer proud of It, he becomes indifferent and laiy. All he does is simply keep within the "dead Una" of the rules, so as not to be brought here for trial. Don't get dlscoursged by the old fellows telling you It is a dog s life. They will tell you a man has no rights In this Job, and he Is bossed by commissioners and all sorts of people; and they will tell you another thing, and you mustn't believe It. They will tell you the public doesn't appreciate good work. I have been a public servant since I was 31 years of age, more or less mostly more and I have associated with ail sorts of men In public life, and I have heard that over and over again, that the people don't care whether you are bad or good; look out for yourself.

It Weighty Professional Endorsements. That the several American medicinal root, the concentrated glyceric extract of which mske tip Ir. Tierce's tioldt-n Medical Discovery, have the strongest kind of endorsement by scores of lead ing medical writers of all the several schools of practice, a brief glanre at the standard works on Materia Mtdirn will show. Of Golden Seal root, which is one of the prominent ingredients of "Golden Medical Discovery," Or. Roberts Rartholow, of Jefferson "Medical Col lege, says: "Very useful as a stom achic (stomach) tonic and in atonio dyspepsia. Cures gastric (stotnnch) catarrh and headache accompanying same." He alto mentions catarrh of the gall duct, jaundice and constipa tion as diseases which the use of Golden Heal root overcomes ; also catarrh of the intestines, even when it has proceeded to nlceration, is remsrkablv benefited by Hydrastis (Golden Seal root). Dr. Grower Coe. of New York, says: "Hydrastis (Golden Seal root) exer cises an P'perml influence over mu cous surfaces. Upon the liver it acts with equal certainty and ef ficacy. As a cholagigne (liver invig orator) it has few eqtials." Dr. Coe also advises it for affections of tha spleen and other abdominal viscera generally, and for scrofulous and gland ular diseases, outaneous eruptions, in digestion, debility, chronic diarrhcea, constipation, alo in several affections peculiar to women, and in all chronic derangements of the liver; also for chronic inflammation of bladder, for which Dr. Coe says "it is one of the most reliable agents of cure." Prof. Hobart A. Hare, M. D., of the University of Fa., says of Golden Seal root that it is "of service in chronic catarrh of the stomach and bowels, following abuse of alcohol, and as a tonic after malarial fever." He further says, it "has a distinct anti-malarial influence.'' Also " i;ood in all catarrhal conditions, ss uterine catarrh, leucor rhrea, etc., and as "a curative agent in chronic dyspepsia." Prof. Laurence Johnson, M. D., of the Medical Department, University City of N. Y., is equally loud in his praise of Golden Seal root, especially for its tonio effects in convalescence from acute diseases and its special tonio influence upon mucous surfaces and upon the gall bladder. Doctors Barton and Tully recom mended Golden Seal root as a pure tonio and as an alterative in dis eased conditions of the mucous mem branes. Prof. John King, M. D., late of Cin cinnati, author of the American Dis pensatory, gives it a prominent place among medicinal agents, reiterates all the foregoing writers have said about it, as does also Prof. John M. Scudder, M. D., late of Cincinnati. Dr. Scud der says: "It stimulates the digestive processes and increases the assimilation of food. By these means the blood is enriched, the consequent improvement on the glandular and nervous systems are natural results." Dr. Scudder further says, "in relation to its geheral effect upon the system, there is no medicine in use about which there ie tuch general unanimity of ovinion. It is universally regarded as the tonic, useful in all debilitated state . you want to be religious so much the bet ter. Keep your own self clean and youi conscience clean.

Pictorial duta are being secured on the filtration contract at Pittsburg. When the big 15,600,000 Job is completed the city will depend about as much on pictures as on figures In getting a focus on where it is at. About 300 pictures . have been taken thus far, and by the time, the work is ended it is believed the collection will have been increased to 500. The photographs will be filed away, maybe In book form, and if any dispute ever arises as to how curtain work was performed the city will be uble to spring a photograph of tho particular feature under discussion.
