The need of Improved Are protection In the Implement district and south portion of the clly was emphasized last night nt the n eetlng of the city council by the petition of the E.

Mayor Macrae addressed the council at length on the bad condition of the ma jority of the railroad crossings In the city and especially those on paved streets. With few exceptions, he said, these were nothing but planks between the rails and In most places these planks were worn out and useless. He favored the paving of the crossings between the rails and a special committee, consisting of Councllmen Ma loney, Knudscn and Smith, was appointed to look Into the matter and report back to the council at as early a date as possible. Councilman Knudsen brought up the mat ter of the gates ordered at some of the railroad crossings and which order the railroads had to date entirely ignored. A committee composed of Councllmen Knud sen, Smith and Wallace was appointed with power to act In the matter. The matter of the blocking of the stn crossings by the railroads was brought t. mention being made specially of the block ing of the Main street and Sixth street crossings on Sixteenth avenue a few nlghta ago by the Rock Island for neasly an hour.

William P. Jackson, colored, who has been In the county Jail for some time owing to his Inability to furnish a peace bond, was before the commissioners on Insanity yesterday on complaint of Jailer Gallup. Jackson's conduct haa led Jailer Gallup to believe he Is lnsune, but the commissioners, after an examination yesterday, adjudged him sane and expressed the opinion that his conduct In the county Jail was probably due to general cussedness. Jackson, prior to being committed for failure to provide a bond to keep the peace, had been a number of times in the police and Justice courts on varleus charges and for fre quently assaulting his wife, who recently obtained a divorce from him. Sheriff Can ning Is of the opinion that Jackson Is not wholly responsible mentally, and conse quently Is loath to try the effect of a little "discipline," but tn view of the finding of the commissioners may resort to this measure If Jackson persists In creating ..trouble at the county hostile.

Professor Dr. E. Struve, Berlin, Germany, says: "Owing to the small amount of alcohol in beer the same cannot be called an alcoholic beverage in the usual sense of these' words." Peerless Deer is an effervescent wholesome and fully matured beer of commanding superiority. Because ot this it received the Gold Medal at St. Louis Expoiition in 1904 and at Paris in 1900. It is a sparkling amber beer with splendid fragrance, delightful, snappy flavor and creamy foam. It has been brewed for 50 years by the famous Gund Natural Process that preserves the life of the malt. Peerless contains only the choicest ingredients the essential tonic juices of fine Bohemian hops, special yeast of our own cultivation, water flowing from a well in granite rock and the malted extract of rich, plump and sound Northwestern barley.

ATTORNEY GENERAL NOTIFIED Plans for the Joint Maneuvers of Iowa National Guard and Ileg ular Troops Are About Complete. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, July 23.-(Speciul.)-In-formatlon that the anti-pass law Is be ing broken has come to light today, but It Is doubtful If any prosecutions can bo made. The information is very meager, but it Is claimed to be authentic; that Instead of furnishing passes or trip tickets railroad officials are sending their per sonal checks to cover the amount of tr.e passage of the friend or person whom the railroad desires to send over the line. It Is claimed that the official, unable to write out a pass, writes a letter to the person he desires to puss, saying inai the anti-pass law Ptrictly prohibits passes. but saying that the receiver or ire let ter will tlnd the check enclosed wh!"h will hn received bv tho ticket agent !n lieu of cash. The supposition is that the check when turned in by the ayent Is turned back to the official without ever being cashed. There Is no question but the subterfuge: Is a violation of the anti-pass law, which provides that no free pass or ticket shall be given 'directly or Indirectly," and puts the penalty alike on the persons ac cepting "free transportation" over the road. The check method, it la claimed. Is certainly free transportation in every sense of the word. While It is seemingly very easy to evade the law In that man ner. It is not believed that there will h.i any general practice of the method, for even if the railroad officials' cheek were cashed It would still be within the mean ing of the law, and if the method were to be practiced by officials to any greit extent it would soon be detected with sufficient evidence to pronecute. Attention of the attorney general's office has been called to one cuae In this state, but there Is not enough evidence In that case to prosecute. Maneuver Plans Mature. The rlans for the army maneuvers the first of August are about complete. I no various forces are to be divided into two armies, the Blue snd the Brown. The Blu.t army will consist of the F'fty-tliird snd Fifty-fourth regiments of the Iowa guard, the Second squadron of the Second I'nlted States cavalry from Fort Des Moines, the machine gun platoon of the Eighteenth In- I fantry from Fort Leavenworth and a sec- ! tlon of Company A of the signal corps of the regular army. It will be under com mand of Colonel Bishop of the Iowa guard, with Major Richard M. Blatehford of the Eleventh I'nlted States Infantry from Fort D. A. Russell, Wyo., aa hie chlef-of-staff. The Brown army will be composed of the Fifty-fifth and Flfty-slnh regiments of the Iowa guard, the. first squadron of the Second cavalry of Fort Des Moines, a sec tion of Company A of the I'nlted States signal corps ana Battery C. Fifth field artillery of the regular army. This will be under command of Colonel Lincoln of the Iowa guard and Major Harry Klrby of the Eighteenth I'nlted States Infantry of Fort Leavenworth will be chlef-of-staff. The guRrd regiments of the Blue army will easemhle at Slater. Ia., north of this city, August B. snd will go Into camp near there, being Joined the next day by the regular army forces. The Brown 'army will disembark at Des Moines and go Into ramp five miles north of the city that night, being Joined the next day by the regular army forces assigned to It. The next day will be spent In preliminaries and Instructions snd the maneuvers will open the 7th for a three days' battle for the potsesslnn of the Corydon bridge across the Des Molncs river. The maneuvers will consist in getting advsntageous positions without being discovered by the opposing army, Thors wUJ be Aiuaweua safsreea that the alcohol (about 3 ) contained in a '-"firiS -JtifT'rlTir- i Minus iniiiaMiB, iiiiMSsa from the regular army, who will announce their decisions at each stage of the ma neuvers. Trsgedy Is Doubled. Miss Grace Leonard of this city was called to Charleston, W. Va., last week becuuse of serious Illness of J. Harvey Browne, to whom sho was to be married next Septem ber. On his deathbed they wnre married, and the girl started for home shortly after the funeral. At Buffalo, N. Y., she her self was the victim of an accident, and is now confined In a hospital there and may not recover. Later for Governor. Political tjosnlp here Is to 'the effect that though Congressman Lncey has been talked of for senator, the real probability Is that he will be a candidate for governoi. If by any chance Senator Allison should not seek re-election Congressman I.acey will be a candidate for the senate, but with all prob abilities in favor of Allison seeking re flection, Lacey, It Is said, will seek the governorship. Appeals to Supreme Court. The Marshall Ice company and others of Marshalltown, Ia.. have petitioned the su preme court for a rehearing In the case against George W.
