mi cu uia tuurin Banquet 01 me vouncu
U Bluff Commercial club last night at the
Orand hotel. With a mcmbtr of the na
tional house of representatives presiding as
toasttnaater, with two noted congressmen
tnd a former congressman on the program
ftf addresses, with two mora members of
lha national house of representatives and
other prominent men among the guests, the
banquet was undoubtedly the most notable
vent In the four years' history of the
organisation famtllary known as "The
Boosters."
Some regret was naturally manifested
at tha Inability of General Orenvllle M.
Dodge and Congressman Cushman of
Washington, both of whom had places on
me piatrorm. to re present, out wun son
B gressman Walter I. Smith as toastmaster,
f and addresses by Congressmen Washington
J Gardiner of Michigan and C. EX Llttlefleld
i ; of Maine and ex-Congressman M. J. Wade
1 of Iowa City, those fortunate enough to
be present last night were royally enter
tained.
The banquet was served In the large ball
room of the hotel, the officers of the club,
speakers and prominent guests being
eested'at one large table at the head of
the room while 230 others were seated at
small tables which extended Into the hall
way and the ordinary adjoining. The
decorations were extremely striking and
effective, a color scheme of green and yel
being carried out. Lighted candles
with colored shades and centerpieces of
Rowers graced the tables.
Popular Sonars on Prgrsn
, A pleasing Innovation was the singing bo
ween courses of popular songs to the ac
companiment of Whaley's orchestra sta
tioned In the hallway. The songs were
printed In the menu and all present Jolnod
In their rendition.
Congressman Gardiner devoted his ad
dress largely to a review of the work of
the reoent session of congress, dealing at
length on the appropriations. Congressman
Llttlefleld, who prefaced his address with
witty remarks and compliments to Con
gressmen Smith and Conner took as his
subject "The Public and Corporations," In
rhlch, he showed the difference between
ountry at large and those which by over
capitalisation were a harm. Mr. Wade

For them there Is nothing In this world
' ' but calamity. Their greatest trouble Is
to have to eat three times a day. Tho
I stomach Is In rebellion, and this Is lm-
' ; mediately shown In a man's face. A man
to b auoassful must have sunshine tn

dyspepsia faces that breathe disaster and
gloom.
Stomach trouble is tbe most common
cause of discontent, soar face, reckless
ness, disgust and lack, of ambition. A
bad stomach there Is the secret of many
a failure. Anyone can bare a good stom
ach, a strong stomach, a stomach that
can taks care of anything and every
thing that Is put Into it, no matter
whether It Is a very bad stomach or not.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this veiy
thing. One Ingredient of these little tab
lets digests 1,000 grains of food, and no
matter how bad your dyspepsia or indigestion,-
they wlU digest everything in

Fred Jnhnke, a young man about 23 years
of age, was brought before United States
Commissioner N. A. Crawford In this city
yesterday, charged with robbing the mall
box In the postofflce at Mnlvcrn, la. Jahnke
abstracted by means of a rleee of bent wire
a letter from the mall box addressed to
the New York Life Insurance company
which contained a check for $1S, . payable
to the company. Jahnke erased the name
of the Insurance company and Inserted his
own as payee. He then attempted to cash
the check at a local bank, but the paying
teller was suspicious and refused to cash it.
The bank notified the postal authorities and
the matter was placed in the hands of
Postofflce Inspector John E. Swanson, who
caused Jahnke's arrest.
Jahnke, when brought before Commis
sioner Crawford, admitted his guilt, al
though at first he claimed that he thought
It was his own letter he pulled out of the
mall box. He was bound over to await
the action of the federal grand Jury, which
does not convene until September, and as
he was unable to furnish bail in the sum
of $rw) probably will have to remain In the
county Jail until then. Jahnke suffers from
a nervous ailment, and It Is thought that
possibly he Is not wholly mentally responsi
ble. He lived with his widowed mother lit
Malvern.

Commission Delays Visit.
The visit of the state railroad commis
sion to Council Bluffs for the purpose of
Investigating the demand for an overhead
crossing over the tracks of the Great
Western railroad at Woodbury avenue, has
been postponed. The commission, accord
ing to previous arrangements, was to have
been here on Tuesday next, but In a com
munication received yesterday by City
Clerk Sapp the commission announces it
cannot be here before April 15. The city
council recently passed an ordinance de
claring the necessity of the overhead cross
ing and instructing the railroad to con
struct it. Officials of the railroad take the
position that there Is no need for such a
structure at this point as the travel Is
limited.

AGREE ON ANTI-TRUST BILL
Hem .ocenti thi Amendment! Adopted
in tbe Senate.
ANTI-GRAFT BILL G0LS THROUGH H3USL
Seaaters Maeh Worried Becaase
Newspapers I'rlnt News of What
Is Done In Executive
Session.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DBS MOINES. March 18. (Special.) The
house todny concurred In the senate
amendments to the Stillman bill prohibit
ing combinations of corporations or persons
to fix toe price of grain. The amendments
were minor matters, correcting the
phraseology of the bill where there were
some errors, but making no change In the
provisions of tht bill. This completes the
last formality In the enactment of the
law with the exception of the governor's
signature, and it is believed It will receive
this without delay.
May Veto Firecracker IH1I.
Offlire, firecracker bin may yet fall by
the wayside. Governor Cummins has not
vetoed it, but there is an Intimation float
ing about that he Is giving It some very
careful consideration and thus far has not
gotten himself exactly In sympathy with
the provisions of the measure. - It has been
In his hands some days now and has not
been acted upon. I '
Anti-Graft Rill Taaaed.
The house passed the Hfimbleton antl
tlpplng bill, which Its author declared he
preferred should be called an anti-graft
bill. He claimed to the house that it did
much more than prohibit the tips given
at restaurants and sleeping cars. That It
prohibits public officials accepting a rake
off or commission on the side and pro
hibiting any other person not acting for
himself, but as an agent or representative
taking a rake-off or commission on the
side.
Hasten1 License Bill.
Two hours were spent by the house dis
cussing the hunters' license bill and dur
ing the discussion about a score of amend
ments were offered to the bill. It was
finally passed with but slight amendment.
Every farmer member of the house was
afraid the bill would make It lawful for
any person with a license to come upon
his premises and hunt without permission.
Senate's Dlanlty Assailed.
The fact that the newspapers generally
secured the names of the members of the
committee to which the nomination of
Custodian MoCurdy had been referred on
Friday In executive session caused some
commotion for a time today. Senator Olllll
land In open senate demanded an inveattga
tlpn, and upon his motion an executive
session was held to consider tho matter.
Qlllllland takes the ground that the news
papers have ho right to publish the news
concerning what the senate does under such
circumstances and that they must have
secured the Information In a dishonorable
way. He accused newspaper reporters of
