The stomach I a strong, powerful or- 'Ban, which in composed of muscles of Treat strength. It Is filled during; diges tion with gastric juices which, when the stomach, extending and compressing the food, dissolve It and separate the nour lshmont from tlio wa.ute matter. If, how ever, these gastric Juices are lacking, the rtomach Is not capable of digesting Us lood because it has not the tools with j Which to work successfully. The gastric Juices when In a perfect state do away with nil foul odors, fer mentation and decay, reduce the food to a disintegrated mass and the stomach then presses It Into the Intestines where another form of digestion- takes place. Then the Intestines take from this mass food all that Is nourishing and give It I the blood. The waste matter It throws i from the system. . If Instead of nourishment the Intestines receive Impure deposits combined with a poisonous and Imperfect gastric Juice, It can bo readily sen that they must turn such ImperfVft. nourishment Into the blood. I The blood then being unable to give each part of the body that whloh It requires, be comes Impoverished and disease Is spread . broadcast. ' I Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets corrects uch a condition at once. If the gastric Juices are lucking and Imperfect these tablets do their work Just the same. They build up the elements In the Juice which are lacking and remove those elements which cause disturbance. Meat, grains, fluids, vegetables and delicacies, Ju fact each portion of a large meal have been placed in a glass vial and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have digested them to a perfect fluid Just as a healthy stomach-would do. A large complex, hearty meal holds no terrors for a dyspepetln if Stuart's Dys pepsia Tabids are used.

KEEPS MEMBERS OUT OF OIFICE llrpreseatatlves of Water Board Go to CUT Hall an AdrUe PnbUe Against Paying: Water Hates. Officials of the Omaha Water board were barred out of the office of the Omaha Water company Tuesday morning by a restraining order Issued late Monday afternoon by Judge W. H. Munger In the United States circuit court and the coup planned by the board against the company thereby went by default. Tht board Sr.turday evening decided to niara a representative In the office of the water company In the Bee building and another In tne office of the board in the cMy h.'i'l for the purpose or explaining iu consumers the basis of the new schedule of rates adopted a couple of months ago and ordered to go Into effect January 1, 19fi9. The consent of the company was not asked or secured and when the action of the board became known the company of ficials, together with their attorneys, hold a conference which resulted In the peti tion In federal court for a restraining order against the board or the officials of the city from interfering with the business of the company. Order Secnred Quietly. The restraining order, was secured late In the afternoon and members of the board knew nothing of It until Secretary Koentg of that body presented himself at the office of the company In conformity with the board's orders to advise people not to pay the old raio. No time was lost In explain ing to the awtietsry that he was enjoined from Interfering, and that official then gathered up his books and adjourned to the city hall where he, O. E. Bertrana attorney, and a stenographer held forth during the day, attending to a long line of seekers after information. The restraining order has nothing to do with the actions of members or employes of the Water board from doing what they please In their office In the city hall. It merely refuses them admittance to ' the company's private offices. Callers at the eTflce of the board were told not to pay the present' rate, but the refusal of the company to accept the lower rate) on pain of having the water turned off resulted In all paying the present schedule. On the bills of those who paid under protest, however, the clerks In the office stamped across the face of the re ceipts this statement: "Upon presentation hereof, we will refund the amount paid hereon In excess of rates specified In order of the Omaha Water board of October 24, 190. provided such order be finally held valid by the courts. The Omaha Water company." Two years ago when the board ordered a lowering of the rate, thj cojapany ac cepted tne lower rate unow protest, oui later, when the courts upheld the com pany the difference In rates waa collected from the consumer. Difference In nates. Under the present schedule $6 a year Is charged for water for a five-room dwelling house and 75 cents for - each additional room. The new rates contemplate the pay ing of $4.60 for a five-room house and 60 cents for each additional room. Private baths under the present schedule cost $3.50, under the new rates they would cost $2.75. Under the present schedule 35 cents Is HOTELS.

The hew rate for water with meter measurement Is 25 cents flat for sny quantity under 2.000 gallons. Officials of the Omaha Water company maintain that the rates adopted by the Water board. If bfndlng. will not jto Into effect until January t 1909. and that there fore all who pay now must pay under the the old rate, even though the money paid s for water to be used after the first of the year. By paying before January 1. the consumer gets a rebate of 5 per cent from Is bill and when he Is shown this together with the fact that the company will refund ny excessive amount provided the courts old that the board la In the right he gen erally pays. The hearing on the restraining order was set for Tuesday morning, but as neither of the parties was ready no date has been set for It. In the meanwhile the restraln- ng order will continue In force and effect ntll the application for an Injunction can be heard and determined. WHEAT GOES TO LABORATORY Entries In Corn Exposition Contest Will Be Subjected to Test Be- fore Awards Are Made. Wheat competing for first and second rizes at the National Corn exposition, as well as the probable winning samples of oats, has been sent to the laboratories of the best mills of Mlnpee polls, and when the reports of experts is In, the prises will be awarded. Most of the wheat did not leave Omaha until Tuesday, and the result of the tests will not be known for ten days at least. Those Interested In the wheat awards will have the consolation of knowing that the ubject of their fairness will not be open to discussion. Tho samples have not only been Judged by tho best grain Inspectors of the country, but a part of each sample has been milled, and another part of each will be given the laboratory test. This Is the first wheat competition ever held when the grains were so thoroughly tested, but the National Corn exposition early decided to give the wheat the most careful consideration, as grain Inspectors have for years been grading some varie ties of wheat so that It brought a lower price than others, when tne expert growers have been of the opinion that If the wheat was fairly tested It would be shown to be as good as any variety on the market This Is true with what Is known as durum wheat. The offices of the exposition were moved to 606 Bee building Tuesday, and the entry clerks are still at work sending orders fcr premiums. ' J. Wilkes Jones, general manager of the exposition, will leave In a few days for the west, where he has some property to look after. lie will return soon after the first of year year to be. with the executive committee and director when the work Is gone over. DOGS AT THE POULTRY SHOW Three Hundred Mlah Class Fellows Wilt Do on Exhibition at Andltorlnm. The entire stage of the Auditorium will be utilized next week by the Nebraska Kennel club at the Transmlsslsslppl Poul try show and over 300 high-class dogs will bo exhibited with no extra charge for ad mission. W. T. Hood, secretary of the Ne braska Kennel club, residing- at 1416 Jef ferson street South Omaha, Is devoting his entire time this week to preparing for the show and Is being assisted by Charles Ben son and M. J. Greovy, president and vice prehldent of the club. The officers of the club will exhibit their dogs, but will not enter them for the premiums. . Mr. Benson owns the Carnation Kennels. The Transmlsslsslppl Poultry association lias given $300 in premiums for the kennel exhibition and to this amount will be added purses by the club and special prises by the merchants, making- the purses quite at tractive. Entries already have been received from Denver, St. Louis and other cities besides a large number from towns near Omaha. 13. B. Day, who has kennels of nearly forty St Bernards, will enter a large number of this class. Kvery effort Is being made to make the kennel show one of the features of the big show next week. R. A. Newlyn of Landsdowne, Fa., has been secured to Judge the kennels, and as he has a national reputation all may expect fair treatment.

PAPE FREE, JffAURER REPAID Han Who Took Money from Employes la Released When Peculations Are Covered. F. A. Pape, the young man who con fessed to embezzling- $2,000 of the money of his former employer, Ed Maurer, has been released from custody and Mr. Mau rer has been partially reimbursed and se cured for the balance. Mr. Maurer's promise was that If the money waa repaid he would not prose cute. He has fulfilled that promise, and further than that, he has kept his mouth shut as to the details of the settlement. "Just say It is all dropped," he eaid. But as a matter , of fact, the greater portion of this' $2,000 has already been returned and . the balance Is secured by notes. Certain religious Influence, It Is au thorltatlvely stated, was exercised In be half of an adjustment of this matter. A clergyman participated In a conference with Mr. Maurer, Captain Savage, Detec tives Dunn and Ferris and relatives and friends of Pape at the police station Tues day morning, following which Pape was released. Pape says he will leave Omaha. Mrs, E. S. Johnson, the Chicago woman to whom Pape sent about $3,000 by tele graph during the years 1907-0$, and who has been under surveillance, but not un der arrest, for almost a week, was al lowed to leave the matron's department Foley's Orlno Laxative cures chronlo eon stlpatlon and stimulates the liver.

FEEDERS FOR THE GREAT TRJNKS One by One These Roads Art An nesed as Oatlets to the Walt for the Transeoatlaental Railroads. The announcement of the acquisition of the Colorado & Southern by the Burling ton brings up the fact that all the north and south lines, which for years were thorns In the sides of the owners of the great transcontinental lines, are being gob bled up and absorbed by these giant eoit and west roads. One by one these north and south lines which were looked upon as the great bene factors of the middle west country ' In that they would give an outlet for tho products of the valley states to the Oulf, have been made parts of one or the other of the cross-country roads. Tho Port Ar thur St Oulf was first absorbed by Harri man and then practically dismantled as far as the Omaha end was concerned; then the 'Frisco was absorbed by the Rock Isl and, the Illinois Central was secured by Harriman and now Hill takes over the Colorado A Southern. With the completion of Hill's second line across Wyoming, which Is to be one of the first large undertakings ot the spring, Hill will have a direct connection be tween the Great Northern and the North ern Pacific and the southern states and the Oulf. When Hill first built the Great Northern the tonnage was greater from the west than to the west and to increase this westbound tonnage and also to provldo cargoes for his boats. Hill had agents working through the south to Induce the cotton producers to ship their cotlon to tho Pacific northwest for the China trade and thus the Great Northern got the long end of the tonnage. This new through line from the southern states to the Great Northern will. It Is claimed give Mr. Hill this ori ental trade on cotton all the way from the south to Seattle. Pacific Coast Lines Fall. Slnoe the legislative enactment that pre vents Hill or Harriman absorbing land freight rates it has been seriously as serted that oriental commerce on the Pa cific will not become lucrative to Amor lean lines, not until conditions are rad Ically changed. Hill today Is operating Just one steamship and Harriman three, and all at a loss.. The reason given Is that they cannot compete with the Suez lines. The latter load their cargoes on tho Atlantic seaboard and start for the orient with only a water charge, to their shippers, while the patrons of the Pacific coast lines must pay for land transportation from the point of shipment In the south or east to the Pa cific coast and then pay water trans portation. Only by absorbing- this land rate, It Is argued, can the Pacific magnates hope for success, and until congress takes some different view of the matter, . they cannot absorb the rate. The Colorado & Southern also will give Mr. Hill an almost exclusive hold on cer tain cattle business which ' amounts to thousands of cars annually. "Every spring Texas ships to the ranges of Wyoming and Montana a good many, thousand cars of cattle, which are fattened on the ranges and then shipped ' to the Missouri river markets or Chicago. On this business Mr. Hill will get the business going and com ing, the Colorado ft Southern handling the cattle from the south to the' north and the Turlington bringing' the4 fattened cattle to market. " v" What fltlllwell' told'. When In the early '90s StlUwelJ started to build the Kansas City, Pittsburg ft Gulf railroad from Omaha to Port Arthur tho people of Omaha and Kansas City thought they saw in that line a proposition which would force a reduction to the east and west rates by competition because the gulf is much nearer to Omaha than either the Atlantic or Pacific seaboards. Things did not run smooth for Mr. Stilwell and he soon lost control of that road and Mr. Harri man gobbled up sufficient of the stock that he was able practically to dismantle the line between Omaha and Kansas City. The Qulncy, Omaha ft Kansas City, which was part of that scheme, Is now under the con trol of the Burlington and Is operated as an independent line. The Omaha ft St Louis line, which -was another part of the scheme. Is now a part of the Wabash be tween Omaha and St. Louis. The Port Arthur line Is now owned by the Dutch syn dicate and is quite a lumber and oil line, passing through the Beaumont oil fields and running between Kansas City and Port Arthur. The 'Frisco was another line which was making Inroads on the business of the transcontinental and it was bought up by the Rock Island system. Rumors are always flying around that this road or the other has absorbed the Katy line, but these all turned out wrong and the Katy Is still independent, although It is believed to be on the market Large sums are spent annually In Improving It, the territory through which it passes 1 constantly developing and the capitalists who now want to buy will have to pay a much larger price than several years ago, Valuable Traekaa-e Contracts. The Katy has valuable trackage contracts with the Burlington and enjoys unlimited privileges between St. Louis and the coun try north as far as Alton, with trackage across tho Mississippi at Alton. It connects with the Burlington at Hannibal and at Kansas City with alL.the roads. It then runs through the biggest towns of Okla homa and Texas and Its 3,072 miles has an outlet at the gulf at Galveston. It is now thought that Rockefeller has a controllln Interest In the road. Persistent rumors have floated around during tho last twenty years at different times that Hill had bought the Katy, but these have all been denied and now that Mr. Hill has bought the Colorado & S uthern these rumors prob ably will be set at rest - . The Mobile & Ohio, a north and south line running between St. Louis and Mobile, a distance of 648 miles with branches mak ing a total of 1.000 miles, was absorbed by the Southern railway in 1900. The Southern Is dominated by J. Plerpont Morgan. The Southern runs from Norfolk and Washing ton to St Louis, Little Rock, Memphis, Greenville and Mobile so that the Mobile ft Ohio was a connecting link between the western terminals of this big system which spreads Us lines all over the south. The Wisconsin Central is another north and south line which has recently been absorbed. Having been bought by the On clnnatt, Hamilton ft Dayton, which is con trolled by the Bradford Interests. The Burlington, Cedar Rapids ft Northern waa another north and south line of some prominence which was taken over by the Rock Island system. Always a the Market. One road which constantly stays on the market Is the Minneapolis ft St. Louis and also the Iowa Central of which Edwin Hawley U president These lines connect Minneapolis with central Iowa and then con nect with St Louis and Kansas City by means of the Wabash. Omaha, Chicago and Sioux City are reached by the Illinois Central It has often been thought that Mr. Harriman would buy these lines. For years the Illinois Central remained a I The : Piano" lovers' Harvest For exhibition purposes we ordered a number of Pianos for the corn show. Every one of these Pianos was specially . , ; i''.

Harriman tried to absorb the line and then was precipitated the long war between Harriman and Fish which culminated In Fish being ousted from control and Harriman securing this double-track outlet to the gulf. The Illinois Central still continues to be operated as a separate system In spite of the Harriman control and. although It con nects at Omaha with the Union Pacflc, no change has been made in the traffic ar rangements which have existed for years between the Union Pacific and the other Omaha-Chicago lines. Whether the Colorado ft Southern will be operated as a separate line or whether It will be united with the Burlington under one management remains to be seen. It has been the history of the Hill regime that when the Burlington secures a line it is Immediately made part of that great system which Is one of the best advertised In the country.
