Jim Qulnlce, the boss cook of the gang of Greek railroad laborers In the Rock Island yards, who wss charged with re ceiving stolen property, It being alleged that he had acted as a fence for Walter Goodwin, the boy burglar, was yesterday held to the grand Jury by Police Judge Snyder. Qulnlce'a bond waa placed at $500, In default of which he was com mitted to the county JalL Qulnlce was specifically charged with receiving from young Goodwin the Jew elry which Goodwin stole from the resi dence of W. Hanna, 216 Tenth avenue. Among the articles stolen from this house were a watch and bracelet belonging to Mrs. Hanna. These were recovered by tho police In a barber shop snd pool room In Omaha conducted by Greeks, where they had been placed for safe keeping by Qulnke. Several local jewelers gave expert testi mony aa to the value of the Jewelry w hich Qulnlce was accused of receiving, their appraisements ranging from Vi to $40, the latter being double the amount re quired to bind the accused over. George W. Pruitt of Honey Creek, charged with slashing his brother-in-law, Nell Walters, with a razor Sunday after noon, had a preliminary hearing In police court yesterday morning and was held to the grand jury. The charge filed against Pruitt was assault with Intent to commit murder. His bond was placed at $1,000, which he was unable to furnish and he was sent to the county Jail. The hearing yesterday developed the fact that Prultt's wife, at whose home on Franklin avenue the cutting took place, was divorced from the defendant last September. The trouble started, so the evidence showed, when Pruitt, who had called at the house about some mortgage papers, commenced to take down the pic tures from the wall of the sitting room. Walterr, on Pruitt refusing to leave the house, ejected him and then the cutting followed. City Physician Tubbs. who was called to attend Walters, testified that it had required fourteen stitches to sew up the gssh made by the raxor, which had cut through Walters' overalls, hickory shirt and heavy underwear. The fact that the raxor struck Walters' ribs probably pre vented the wound from being a fatal one. Pruitt entered a plea of not guilty and claimed that Walters attacked him when he began to remove the pictures from the wall. MATTERS l DISTRICT COt'RT Verdict for Defendant In Famoaa Xenl Libel Sol.

Musselman. since coming to Council Bluffs a few months sgo, lived at 814 Fifteenth venue, but that place knew him not yes terday. All of the household furniture owned by Musselman, It was learned, had been mortgaged to A. A. Clark, who'" dealings with the missing man did not end t thst. It was Mr. Clark who filed an information charging Musselman with ob taining money from him under false pro tenses. Some time ego, so Clark informed tho police, Musselman borrowed $.f, giving as security an assignment of the money com ing to him under his contract with the railroad. Musselman told Clark, so the lat ter said, that he needed the money to pay his men with. Musselman repaid this $2o0 snd yesterday morning he effected another loan of $;'50, as he needed the money to pay his men with. At least this is what he claimed to Mr. Clark, so the latter said.

The Italians were greatly excited and with an attorney thronged the office of Justice Cooper. They quieted down, how ever, when Informed that the railroad com pany would see to it that they got their wages snd that their clnlms for labor would take preference of all other claims against Musselman and of the assignment to Clark. During the afternoon J. A. Kirk, who conducts a grocery store on Sixteenth avenue, secured In the district court an attachment against Musselman for $110 for groceries and money loaned. L'p to a late hour last night the autliorl tlea had been unable to locate Musselman and It was believed he had left the city. It was reported that he had packed up his personal effects and had shipped them out of the city by express. Real Estate Transfers.

SENATE OPPOSED TO JUNKETS Barns' Day Celebrate in the Hawse, Father .naent Making the Ad dress tilllllaml Wants to Have an Official State Son. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES. Jan. 26.-l8peclal.)-The ltgls'.sture practically did nothing today, because there Is not as yet a sufficient numbet of bills before either brsnch to fnohlj the committees to get down to i-e-rlouu work. The house this afternoon put In two hours celebrating the annl Aersary of the birth of "Bobby" Burns with songs, recitations and an address by the eloquent Father Nugent. The com mittee to arrange the program for a spe cial Lincoln day celebration was com plete and It Is expected that this will be elaborate. There is disagreement as between the two houses as to whether or not there should be Junketing committees to go to the various state Institutions and find out if the work is being done as reported by the trustees, regents and the Board of Cot-trol. The house passed a resolu tion twice and the senate has not acted. Today It was discovered that the senate was likely to kill off the entire scheme and thb last of the resolutions wss with- drawn for the time being, while a confer ence can he arranged between the leaders. A unique thing today was the introduc tion of a resolution in the senate by Olllillnnd to make a state song and to declare that "Iowa, Beautiful Iowa," shall be the state song of the Hawkeye state It was written some years ago by Tacitus Hussy 0f Des Moines and has been sung many times In public with splendid effect. A bill by Senator Proudfoot was passed by the senate which permits courts to waive the requirement of an Inventory of personal property In the settlement Of estutes. Opposed to .Newspaper Bills. Senator Burgess would, by law, make it impossible for a publisher of a periodical to recover for a newspaper or magazine taken out of the postofflce, unless the pub lisher had a written order for the same, and would change the contract rights of the parties with regard to the receiving and paying for a periodical where payment is not made In advance. Under the present law newspaper publishers have the same right as others in regard to the enforce ment of their contract rights In court. Debate on the Road Question. The first debate of the session occurred over a highway proposition. Senator Gll lilland wants the law fixed so that traction engine owners must lay planks over brick and cement culverts and bridges before they can cross. Senator Maytag objected to this. The debate turned upon the advisa bility of giving encouragement and per mission to the authorities to build culverts and bridges. In opposition to the bill It was urged that where these are built right traction engines doi not harm them, and that with highway improvement uppermost In the public mind, It would be even better to have a requirement that all such cul verts he made so, 1 that traction engines could cross In safety. The debate ended when the bill got tied up on an amendment. Health Taxes. Senator Hunter introduced an important bill to give cities the right to levy a Z-mlll tax for health purposes. He also introduced the bills to give cities a right to use the highway funds raised within the cities snd the bill to permit assessing to property owners the cost of sewer repairs. An insurance bill that will be fought by the insurance combine was Introduced by Schulte, which provides that an insurance note must bear on the face the fact that it is given for Insurance and such a note Is not collectable in court unless the com pany shows It has complied with the Iowa laws. Other bills today: By Dodds Offering JKO reward for horse thieves. By Grler To remove banking and muni cipal accounting department from state auditor's control. By White of Story Car service or de murrage hill. By Bchulte Mak ng U'egal lnsuiance notes unless the insurance company has compiled with the lows taws. By Allen of Pocahontas Weed commis sion and weed extermination. By Cosson Limiting time of criminal ap peals to six months. Attack on Insurance Dill. Senator Qulglry of Clayton, on behalf of the democrats, is out In a statement In which he attacks (he scheme to make a transfer of the department of insurance so that It will be placed under Oovernor Carroll. He bases It on the assertion that under Governor Carroll it would bo very much more expensive than under Auditor Blcakley. The democratic party In Its state platform endorsed the plan of removal last year when Carroll was auditor of atate. It Is regarded as certain that the insurance Interests will make a hard fight to keep the department In the hands ofthe present state auditor. H.4RHV JO.ES I!DKR ARREST s.

Jan. 2fi.-(8peclal.) Sunday, beginning In the morning and last ing throughout the day, occurred the dedi cation exercises of the Wesaington Springs seminary. Just one year ago, on January 22, the people watched the old seminary building burn, and there waa little thought at the time that it would be rebuilt. The Free Methodists, who are behind the insti tution, did not loae a day hardly In start ing the work of rebuilding and In Just a year and two days the new and handsome building was rebuilt and dedicated. Elder J. W. Whiteside had charge of the financial end of the enterprise and he reported the best kind of success In securing money for the building. Friday evening the Aletneplan society gave a public entertainment, and on Saturday the building was open sll day for the inspection of the public ir.d in the evening a gospel service was held. The dedicatory exercises were held Sunday morning at 11 o'clock In the auditorium of the seminary. The sermon was delivered by iRev. Alexander Beer of Seattle, Wash., and prominent members of the church over the stste were present and sssisted In the dedication. The structure cost fIS.OOO and it is built to meet the requirements for a number of years to come. Aside from build ing the seminary, the city erected a new high school building last year that cost about 125,000 and was occupied late In the fall. . Taste Is Sure Stomach Guide A Barometer Which Newer Fails, i Though Seldom Believed. "Taste Is the direct guide to the stomach; and the taate buds are connected by the I nerve with the stomach Itself, so that I they represent Its health or disorder. If the stomach or its Juices are out of tone, the blood la fermented by a change In the alkaline or acid condition, and these reach the mouth both directly and Indi rectly "The taste buds are In the tongue, and are mounted by hairlike projections callel papillae; they cover tbe surface of the tongue." "When you taate these buds rise up and absorb the liquid; inform the nerves; the nerves tell the stomach, and the food is acceptable or not. Just as the stomach feels." The above remarks on taate come from an eminent authority and almply explain why when one smells cooking or sees food one thinks he can eat, but when he tastes he learna the stomach Is out of business.
