Dr. Uiiiion Captures Prowler.
Charles Gallagher, whoso right name the
police say Is Owen McLaughlin, was cap
tured by Dr. 'J. H. Gasson In the letter's
apartments over 414 Weet Broadway at 3
o'clock yesterday morning.
Dr. Gasson was awakened by a noise in
the rear of his apartments and on entering
the back room came face to face with a
man who had crawled In through the tran
som and dropped to the floor. Dr. Gasson
seixed the Intruder by the throat and
backed him up against tho wall with the
command, "Hands up and keep your face
to the wall." The doctor made the fellow
maintain this position while he telephoned
for the police and on the arrival of Officer
Arnold turned him over to the officer.
At police headquarters the prisoner gave
the name of Charles Gallagher and claimed
to be a waiter from St. Louis. Investigation
by tho police shows. It la said, that the
man's right name Is Owen McLaughlin and '
that he is from Sioux City. He was un
armed when arrested and refused to answer
any questions put to him by the police or
by Judge Snyder at his preliminary hearing
In police court, which was continued until
this morning.
Dr. Gasson stated that when he captured
Gallagher he heard someone walk down
the hall and front stairway, which makes
him believe the man arrested had a partner.
The fellow corraled by Dr. Gasson came '
up the rear stlrway from the alley and I
climbed in through the transom of the
back door.

officials and employes even $10 each on
their salary checks.
Cashier Turner of the First National
bank said yesterday: "There Is no change
In the situation. There la nothing dis
couraging and nothing particularly encour
aging in the advices from the east. Things
are In just the same shape as they were
at tho close of business last Saturday. We
expect, however, that the money stringency
will ease up within a few days, but the
effect of any such tendency In the east has
not as yet reached the west."

nox cns destroyed by Finn
amber of Sheep In aa Adjoining Car
Are Killed.
Fire of unkno. n origin did considerable
damage to a number of cars In the yards
of the Milwaukee railroad yesterday after
noon. ' There wero three cars, one con
taining alfalfa, another lumber and the
third sheep. . ,
The blase started In an empty box car
In which was more or less rubbish, and
spread rapidly, destroying the two cars
containing the lumber and alfalfa meal.
The flames crossed the track to where a
string of loaded stock cars was standing.
One of the stock cars, a double-decker,
contained sheep, and all the animals on
tho upper deck were burned, but the fire
men, with considerable difficulty, succeeded
In driving out those In the lower part.
Several other cars were more or less
scorched.
It la supposed that the fire started either
from a spark from a locomotive or was
caused by tramps concealed In the empty
box car where It originated.
While the fire department was attending
to the fire in the railroad yard an alarm
called It to the premises of William
Dachtler, who conducts a grocery at 619

NOT UNANIMOUS ON SUBJECT
Alderman llamery Chnrars tiraft In
Connection with Pnhllc Work
In the City of Dea
Moines.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Nov. 6. -(Special. )-At tho
meeting of the Des Moines Ministerial as
oclatlon today tho invitation of Governor
Cummins to the asHnclntlon to meet him In
his office and discuss the question of tha
enforcement of liquor laws In the Daven
port situation was accepted, but only after
a spirited ,debate. In which the meeting
begar. to look like a political caucus. One
week ago the ministers passed resolutions
appealing to the governor to act In the
Davenport matter. The governor replied
oy Inviting the ministers to come to his
office and talk It over.
Today several of the ministers expressed
tholr wish that tho association had not
appealed to the governor and declared that
they were afraid they had walked Into a
political trap. The majority thought that
since they had appealed to the governor
and the governor had extended a courteous
Invitation to call and see him that they
could not rffuee to accept the Invitation.
Dr. Emory Miller told the association that
no ono had ever tackled the governor with
out getting the worst of It and he was for
dropping the matter. A majority wished
that the association wns' out of the mat
ter, but a majority also thought that the
association could not with honor refuse
to accept the invitation and so it was de
cided to accept.
However, disregarding the proverb that
In numbers thero is safety, the association
resolved to place the burden upon five of
the members. This committee probably
will arrange to see the governor the com
ing Friday If he Is home from Washington
by that time. Otherwise It will arrange
to meet him next Monday.
Laboring Men Speak.
President A. L. Trick of tho Iowa State
Federation of Labor and the other members
of the executive committee of tho federa
tion today gave to the press a communica
tion to the union labor men of the state
of Iowa. In It they recommend that the
union men occept the clearing house cer
tificates and in every way seek to facili
tate business under the present financial
stringency, but they recommend that the
unions resist to the striking point any at
tempt to reJdoe wages or lengthen the
hours of employment.
In tho communication they call attention
to the statements of high financiers and
the secretary of agriculture to the effect
that the country was never In better con
dition, due to the big crops and prosperous
condition of tho farmers of the country
and to the ability of the working 'people
to buy because of good wages. On this
they base the recommendations and urge
the working people to accept their share
of the burdens of the hour, but not to
carry the entire burden by accepting less
wages or longer hours.
Dr. Klnckner Here.
Dr. H. B. Kirschner, the new superin
tendent of the tuberculosis hospital ut Iowa
City, is here to confer with the State Board
of Health. He has been In New Mexico

on brick. In which so many brick, manu
facturers of Iowa are interested, will be

Relatives of W. M. Ladd, a tailor of
Odebolt, fear that he will commit suicide.
He left his home for, this city and they
have notified the police here to look out
for him. He left home October 27, and
was thought then to have been demented
for some days.
. Rocker Appeals Again.
Charles Rocker has again appealed to
the supreme court. , Rocker was convicted
of the murdijr of August Schradcr in Lyons
county. On' the first appeal, because of
an" error, the supreme court reversed the
case and remanded it for a new trial.
He was convicted again and has again
appealed. Rocker married tho widow of

fact, In his sleep. '

of the time. they don't know really
what is the matter with them. I hftva
talked with thousands during the past
two years, and few knew indeed what
their trouble was. One said nervousness,
another said kidney trouble, another liver
complaint, some constipation, or heart
trouble. Many had treated, as they called
It, for most of these diseases at different
times. A very common complaint Is 'all
run down,1 or, or 'tired all the time,' or Vi
appetite.'

CAUSES SICKNESS
That Is why my medicine Is selling at
such a tremendous rnte. I have convinced
many thousands of people that these
things are so, and the' number is growing
by leaps and bounds." '
Among more recent converts to Mr.
Cooper's beliefs Is Mr. Edgar L. Hinds,
living at 9 Tappan Street, Everett Mass.
Mr. Hinds has1 this to sny on the subject:
"I have suffered with stomach trouble
for eight, years. I was not sick enough
to be In bed, but Just felt bad all tho
time. My greatest trouble wasi that I
always felt tired, would get 'up in tire
morning feeling as tired as wjien I went
n hast -
"I had a very Irregular appetite, and
was troubled with dlziy spells. If I stood
for any length of tlme,"I would have dull
pain in the - lowe part of my back.' I
was nervous and felt all the time as
though something terrible was going to
happen. I tried many kinds of medicine,
but nothing ever helped me.
"I had about given 'up all hope of ever
being In good health again, when I heard
so much of Cooper and derided to try hl
medicine. 1 took one botle of his New
Discovery and was greatly surprised .' at
the result. I gained 12 pounds In a few
weeks. I can now eat anything I wish,
and feel like a new man. I cheerfully
recommend this medicine to all sufferern
frnm t n-h l.nnhl. "
It Is worth anybody's' time, who Is not
enjoying good health,; to learn of Mr.
Cooper's wonderful preparations. We are
selling them In large quantities. Beaton
