BOY LEARNS DOPE IN JAIL
Bach is Statement Made by La
In the JaTealle
Conrt.
George Harrold.i It street and Boulevard,
South Omaha, lR years of age, claimed he
contracted the morphine habit while In the
county jnll last January, and Judge Es
telle of the Juvenile court gave the lad one
more week In which to brace up.
Harrold waa turned over to the Juvenile
court by the criminal court on
charge of forgery snd Judge Es-
telle paroled him to Rev. James Wise
of South Omaha. He proved too much
for the minister and he aoon began mak
ing visits to different cities In Nebraska
and Missouri. Hla explanation in the
juvenile court Monday morning waa that
the dope habit had thrown Its tentacles
around him and he is helpless. . He con
tracted the habit, he aald, while In the
county Jail, and that he secured his mor
phine from a confirmed fiend who was in
the Jail wtlh him. This man received his
supply, the boy said, through pies and
other edibles brought to him; The boy
said he also contracted the cigarette habit
In the jail, but on thla point there waa
some doubt by Rev. Mr. Wise, who said
that had been one of the boy's fallings
when" he ran around the stock yards in
South Omaha. After giving him a lot
of fatherly advice, Judge Estelle again
turned the boy over to the minister for
one week to give him a chance to make
good.

Ingredient entering Into the composition
of Dr. Pierce's Oolden Medical Discovery
for the cure of weak stomach, dyspepsia,
catarrh ot stomach, "liver complaint,"
torpid liver, or biliousness, chronic bowel
affections, and all catarrhal diseases of
whatever region, name or nature. It is
also a specific Temedy for all such chronic
or long standing cases of catarrhal affec
tions and their resultants, as bronchial,
throat and lung disease (except consump
tion) accompanied with severe coughs. It
Is not so good for acute colds and coughs,
but for lingering, or chronic cases ft is
especially eracacious in producing per
f net cures. It contains Black Cherrybark,
Oolden rieal root, Hloodroot, Stone root.
Mandrake root and Queen's root all ol
which are highly praised as remedies for
all the above mentioned affections by such
eminent medical writers and teachers as
Prof. Hartholow, of Jefferson Med. Col
lege: Prof. Hare, of the Univ. of Pa.;
Prof. Kloley EUIngwood, M. P., of Ben

Med. College, Chicago, and scores of
others equally emlneut in their several
schools of practice.
The Oolden Medical Discovery " Is the
only medicine put up for sale through
druggists for Hue purposes, that has any
such proessional endorsement worth
more than any number of ordinary testi
monials. Open publicity of its formula
Is the best possible guaranty of Its merits.
A glance at this published formula will
how that 'Oolden. Medical Discovery
. contains no poisonous, harmful or habit
formingdrngs and no alcohol chemically
fiure, triple-refined glycerine being used
astead. Glycerine is entirely unobjec
tionable and besides Is a most useful agent
In the cure ef all stomach at well as bron
chial, throat and lung affections. There
Is the highest medical authority for its
use in all such cases. The Discovery ' is
. a concentrated glyceric extract of native,
medicinal roots and is safe and reliable.

that There la Tleaty
of Work.
Many clerks In the Union Taclflc head
quarters are on the anxious seat, fearing
their heads may be chopped off April 1. In
response to orders Issued by J. C. Stuhlis,
head of the traffic departments of the
Harriman lines, Persistent rumors are
afloat that several will be let out from the
office of the general passenger agent and
from several of the different auditing de
partments.
We will not cut the force In. any of the
departments but one," said H. J. Stirling,
sudltor ot the Union Pacific, when ssked
as to the contemplated reductions. "The
auditing department la a peculiar proposi
tion In that It haa about as much work
to do In slack times ns when the road Is
busy. Last fall and summer we added to
our forces to care for the new conditiona
brought on by the changes In the laws, and
some of these extra clerks have already
been let out. but no further reductions
are to be made April 1.
Good Old Times Again.
We do not think this slack business will
continue for any great length of time and
will not cut our regular forces. If we
thought the slack business was to be at all
permanent we might then look around to
see where we might make some saving.
In slack times the officers of the road
wants reports to see where reductions may
be made, more reports than ln times when
the road is doing a larger Dusiness, ana
these extra reports require men."
In response to a query as to whether
the rumor was correct that men were to
be let out Of the purchasing department
Chief Clerk Smith said: "Wo let out a
couple of men a month ago and a few in
spectors, but we now have nil the work
the present force can do. In slack times
manufacturers write us for business more
than in other times and thio all makes
pwork."
