tained In Douglas county court against

A motion to quash the Indictment in
the case of the state against Dalson was
tu.rt In th dlatrlct court yesterday. Dal
son was Indicted November 1H, 1H10, and-
dismissal la asked on the ground that two
terms of court have passed without an
effort to bring him to trial. Dalson was
itiHirind for stealina chickens, and pre
sented the case where the famous cMcken
humnnv" suueared as his chief accuser.
Humnov" is still preserved In alcohol
In the county attorney's office. No action
was taken on the motion, v
Violently dlaturbed by a quantity of

weeks' earnings, W. L. Jared, a car
penter, 3!) years- old, embarked on a
meteoric career Thursday which ended In

he waa sent to await Indictment by the
grand Jury. Jared succeeded In smashing
several hundred dollars' worth of plate
class windows before the police got him.
He lives with his wife in rooms over the
John Olson grocery store on West Broad
way He started his trouble by breaking
ouo all of the winnows on tne nroaaway
sid of his apartments and trying to
throw a gasoline stove through the rents,
He threw a brick through a twelve-foot
plate glass In the Nelron grocery store at
09 South Main. The missile struck sorae
. thing Inside and rtochetted through an
other 4x8 plate. While he was looking
for more bricks he found Officer H. O.
Cook. The only explanation Jared could
give In police court yesterday morning
was that he thought, he was In a fight
and was trying to get his adversary. He
waa held to the grand Jury on the charge
of malicious destruction of property. His
bond was fixed at 1300.

Work on Reseroir
is Now Under Way
Construction work on the new reservoir
at the Thirty-seventh street station is
progressing favorably. Contractor Nor-
gaard Is working as large a force of men
as can be used to advantage In clearing
the trees and underbrush. Excavations
that have been made In the process of
uprooting some of the large Cottonwood
and willow trees have revealed a better
quality of building sand coveting the
stratum of gumbo which will be exposed
when the excavations are complete. The
use of much of ttlls sand will greatly
facilitate the construction work.
An order was made out yesterday for
the cast Iron pipes. Including a lot of
twenty-four-inch main, that will be used-
In the construction of the basin. This
feature of the work will Involve the ex
penditure of several thousand dollars, all
of which Is Included In the estimate of
the cost upon which the contractor based
his bid. ' The use of the pipe system in
handling the concrete will als6 add much
to the Initial cost of the work, but greatly
reduce the total by shortening the work
Ing period. , '
No time Is being wasted In Improving
the water plant In other directions. A
new gang of thirty-five men was put, to
work yesterday laying the new main on
East Fierce street. Other workmen are
engaged In several other parts of town
doing the same kind of work.
Deputy Marshal
Loses a Prisoner
Deputy United States Marshal Bldwell
last evening lost a federal prisoner he was
bringing from Atlantic to Council Bluffs
to arraign before Judge Smith McPherson
today.' The man had been arrested on
a charge of bootlegging. Just before the
Rock Island train pulled Into the Council
Bluffs passenger station and while' It was
slowing up for a stop at the water tank
the prisoner, whose name Is Arthur Bid-
ford, asked permission to get a drink,
It was granted, but Instead of going to
the water cooler he went tovhe open
door and jumped off the platform and
disappeared In the darkness. The man's
offense was not serious and at the worst
would only have procured him comforta
ble quarters In the Red Oak Jail for
couple of months. For this reason the
officer was not guarding him sealously,
It Is believed that after a few hours' re
flection he will voluntarily report for an
Interview with Judge McPherson. In
attempting to seise the fleeing man Dep
uty Bldwell caught his coat collar. Bin
ford slipped out of the coat, leaving It In
the officer's hands.

the same lineup that they have had In
former games with the exception of
Hanson and Robinson. Hanson will do
the pitching act while Robinson will take
care of everything that comes his way
on short.
Smith, the old reliable catcher who
has caught every game this season for
the boat club, will be on the receiving

his arm in tip top shape as It has been
all season, the runners want to stick
pretty close If they don't want to be
caught napping.
The Merchants with the exception of
KHnk Clair of tho Superior team of the
Nebraska State league and Dygert of the
Auburn Mink league team and Hombach,
who has pitched In several bush leagues
around this section this season will use

JUDGE M'PHERSON ORDERS
VERDICT CLEARING ROBERTS
After hearing a mass of testimony from
witnesses for the government and the
defense In the case of E. D. Roberta, a
Shenandoah seed dealer. Judge Smith Mc
Pherson yesterday directed the' Jury to
return a verdict of acquittal. Roberts
had been indicted for the wrongful use
of the mails In connection with the sales
of large quantities of seed corn to farm
ers last season, much of which failed to
grow, and when It did grow did not pro
duce a progeny worthy of Its titled
ancestry. There was no evidence to show
that the corn might not have been iworth
In every Instance the price asked and
paid for it or that any farmer failed to
get a good big bushel of plump looking
corn and the court held that there was
no wrongful use of the malls.
The remainder of the day was consumed
In taking evidence in the suit of Otto N.
Applequist, administrator of the estate of
his brother, John Applequist, against the
Union Pacific railroad. The Applequlsts
w-ere employed as freight handlers In the
local railroad yards for a dosen years,
doing the same character of work all
the time. Cm April S. 19o9. they formed
part of the crew engaged in unloading a
flat car containing a dozen dump cars.
A steam derrick was used In lifting the
carts, which weighed a ton each. To pre
vent the carts from fnlllng off the stand
ards of the flat car were connected with
strung wires across the tops. While the
men were at work by the side of the
car Joe Zolendek, a member of the crew,
cut the Wires, the standards gave way
and one of the dump carts rolled off and
fell on Applequist,. killing him Instantly.
The accident happened In the absence of
the foreman, and on this the claim of
negligence Is based. Damages to the
amount of 310,000 are asked.

DESIRE FOR LIQUOR
.OS in HIRE
E DAYS
Wonderful Work in the Redemp
tion of Men and Women at
the Neal Institute.
There is no longer any reason tQ men
and women to suffer Uie pictured tor
ments of Hades Tn their earneat efforts
to stop drinking. The most marvelous
agency In the sure, easy and quick re
demption from the liquor habit is the
nationally known Neal Treatment, which
Is administered at Neal Institute In
evey large city of the country
Three days of the Neal Treatment are
all-sufficient to rid any drinker of all
craving desire for alconoHo drink.
The idea that one who for years has
been yielding to a growing craving for
liquor can, In three days, change that
desire for aversion to all alchollc drinks,
savors of fiction.
There's no fiction about it, but glor
ious fact, carrying with it happy release
from bondage for thousands of men who
are classed as nervous drinkers.
The Neal Institute, at 1602 South
Tenth street, is one of a great chain of
institutions of helpfulness. It has been
the scene of some marvelous redemp
tions. Business men who recognize the
danger they were in have been quickly
changed from slaves of drink to masters
of themselves.
Three days at the Neal Institute Is the
most profitable business investment any
drinking man can make, because it clears
his brain, restores his nerves and In
creases his business foresight and earn
ing power.
Men who demand "bracers" before
breakfast and at increasing Intervals
the rest of day until "night-cap" time,
at the -nd of three days' treatment left
the Neal-Institute with all desire for
drink gone.

administration by regular physicians,
who are In constant attendance, of a
perfectly harmless vegetable remedy
taken internally, with positively no hy
podermic injections.
The Neul Treatment neutralizes and
eliminates all the stored-up alcpholla
poisoning in the system. VVhen this Is
done, the drinker Is In the same physi

before he ever had u drink, for it is
the stored-up alcohllc poison In the sys

once the alcoholic poisoning Is elimin
ated, the uppetite Is gone.
