world. Ho thought ho could do better In
the west nnd started out with a hopeful
heart Ho sought employment In many
directions, but ho was unskilled and
failed. His only resource was that of a
common laborer. Ills undersized body,
poorly nourished, was unequal to the
strain and he failed.
Joined the llohor.
Discouragements Induced apathy nnd ho
joined tho great nnny of hoboes. Kven In
that class ho was Inferior nnd suffered
hunger where others wcro well fed.
One nfternoon last February he reached
Omaha. Thero was only one place for
him to go for shelter and thnt was the
pollco station. Ho staid there one night
nnd was turned out with tho order to got
out of town. Ho reached Council Bluffs
on Saturday afternoon nnd soon found
his way Into the. city jail, where ho re
mained until Monday. Monday afternoon
he heard again tho old order, "move on."
He was thinly clad nnd faced the Febru
nry cold nt Its most chilling point. Not
able to meet on terms of anything but
Inferiority tho members of tho tramp
nrmy constantly flowing In and out of
tho city via the boxcar route, he started
to walk nlonn. following the tracks of the
Great Western railroad. Ho reached a
point twelve miles from Council Bluffs
when darkness came. There were cheer
ful lights In the farmhouses nnd hn fre.
qnently heard shouts of merry laughter.
"I oven wished that I might hav been
oorn a cow, a pig or a horse so I could
have had a cozy stall, a warm eont nnd
Plenty to eat." ho said bitterly, detailing
his experiences. "I was down nnd out
and did not care what became of mo or
what I did. and when the thought enme
to wreck and rob a train It seemed ns
good ns anything elso. I piled tie on
the track In two places, hoping thnt a
train would come along nnd be wrecked
and I could get a chance to tako some
thing, rob anybody or anything I could."
A freight train, moving at a slow spwd,
coming from the east, encountered the
last obstruction Holmes placed on the
track. Tho train was stopped nnd the
ties removed. Holmes, expecting n pas
senger trnln from tho west, had gone
back a mile, where he had placed the
first pile, and wns nearby when the trnln
crow stopped nnd removed the ties.
Holmes was put aboard the train and
brought bnck to Council Bluffs und lodged
in mo city jail, with tho crime committed
that gavo him n llfo sentence. The mnn
will bo confined at hard labor nt Fort
Madison. Ho took his. sentenco Indif
ferently. Five Yenrn for Stricter.

Prices Upon Hose
At Same Figures
And Eats Out Out
The hopo expressed by Alderman Fisher
chairman of tho fire and light committee
of the city council, that If bids for moro
than $2,000 worth of flro hoso could bo
secured without the annoynnco of hav
ing fifteen or twenty energetic salesmen
lnvado tho city and disrupt tho digestive
apparatus of the members of tho council
by insisting upon $50 banquets, the cost
of these superfluous entertainments might
dp neaucted from tho prico finally to be
paid for the hose, did not appear to bo
realized last night when a big batch of
bids wero opened. With perhaps ono or
two exceptions, tho prices ran nlonr verv
evenly on tho lines of previous purchases.
wun exactly the same figures for the
snmo grade and brand of hose now being
usen oy tno nepartment.
There were eight bids submitted and
the prices ranged from $1.25 per foot for
the highest nnd 75 cents for tho lowest.
All of the bids wero referred to the
fire and light committee nnd chief of the
flro department for tabulation to report
nt tho next meeting.
Protests ngalnst the Improvements
made by A. A. Clark, when the council
granted him permission to extend his
show windows on the Main street eight
een Inches and on tlio nroadway front
nine Inches, were quieted by tho approval
of a resolution renewing agreement per
mitting It
Tho question of ordering the pavement
of Franklin avenue from the present lino
of pavement south was discussed for half
an hour nnd finally referred to the com
mittee of the whole.
Robert B. Wallace submitted tho plat
of the new Lock wood addition on Wood
bury and South avenues, comprising
nearly ten acres of platted residence
property.
Tho Lnna Construction compnny was
granted exemption from city taxation
for a period of five years, upon Its new
tile plant costing $6,000.
The Great Western railroad servd
notice that It disclaimed responsibility
and liability for clogged waterways at
several points along Its right-of-way.
A communication from the mavor d.
daring that the use of the street flusher
han been prevented by crtaln mmbrs of
til council and that he was getting un-
merited criticism for permitting dirty
stieets, awakened some interesting dis
cussion and led to the prompt approval
of a resolution directing the street su.

DriiifKlats May Continue Business
Tha senato killed off a houso bill Sat
urday that had for Its purpose lessening
tho number of drug stores In the state
by a radical change as to the manner
of sales of liquors. It proposed that the
druggists holding permits might sell at
cohol only and thnt on prescriptions. It
received but cfgh.tcen votes In the sen
ate.
The sennto passed n bill to glvo to the
Stato Highway commission for expenses
8 per cent of tho fees received from motor
vehicle licenses.
Provides KlKht Ilnnk Kxnniliier.
The houso passed a bill to provide eight
bank examiners for the stato Instead of
six as at present, and they shall have
had 'five years' experience In tho bank
ing business.
Tho house passed the bill to permit
of railroads having tho long haul at com-
potltlvo points meeting the competition

banks nt 2 per cent Interest.
Tho senate passed a bill making a small
appropriation to reimburse two teachers
In tho school for the deaf for loss of
clothing In a fire.
Fnllnrr of Otii Road mil.
The houso failed to pass a very lra
portnnt road bill which came from the
highway committee, but which was
amended In various ways after It reached
the floor of tho house. It was the first
serious effort made to provide for the
financing of the rond movement by a
safe method. It provided for road dis
tricts, the Issue of bonds by counties and
the construction of surfaced roads where
the people of tho district wero willing
to pay for the same. But tho reactionary
element which Is determined that nothing
shall be done toward permanent roads
prevailed and the bill failed. An effort
may be made to get a similar bill
through the senate nnd again before the
houso.
Will Ilnvr One .11 ore Week.
It Is conceded that the legislature will
remain In session all the coming week
and possibly Into the next one. The pre
liminary talk Is of adjournment on tho
17th, but nobody anticipates that the
work can be finished by that time.
The large appropriation and taxation
bills havn as yet to be passed or pre
pared. They will call for more or less
of discussion and time must be taken to
consider them. Thero Is fear that If
hasty action Is taken for adjournment
this will not be done.
No Iiirouir Tux In Iorra.
The bill for a submission to tho vote of
the people tit Iowa a proposed constitu
tional amendment on the Income tax was
defeated in tho senate today. It re
ceived but eighteen votes. The houso
had early approved this nmendment, but
federal government has adoped an In
come tax system It would be better for
Iowa to wait and see how It works.
Nrhool llnok Compnny Wins.
The school boog combine had a big win
ning lu the senate today after a hard
strugglo over a bill which came from
the house to inako It easier to secure
county uniformity of text books. The
bill was Juggled by the committee. Th
effort to get It out failed. It will there
fore be killed by the committee.
The senate passed a bill amending as to
the school text book commission making
It a body of five educators.
To Adopt Tax I) 111.
The senate fixed for tomorrow, a spe
cial order on the bill for a state tax
commission, nnd giving power to the
state to secure uniformity of taxation.
The committee on ways and means In-
trodurod amendments thnt nlll be of
fered so thero will he no new offices
created, but tho whole matter will go Into
tho hands of tho ntntn executive council
for its nrtlon. This will remove a large
part of the opposition which has been
directed nt tho crenllon of u now state
commission, it Is believed thnt a very
strong effort will now bo made In both
houses to pass the bill.
Cnnltol MxtriiMlon.
Governor Clarke has been warmly con
gratulated by many people of the stnto
for having succeeded In getting the leg
islature to adopt a mlllnge tax for the
enlargement of capltol grounds. General
G. M. Dodge of Council Bluffs, chnlrmnn
of tho Alllnon Monument commission,
wrote him saying
'! not only want to coneratulnte vnu
but to thank you most heartily for your
success In having passed tho bill for
tho development of tho capltol grounds.
You have no Idea what a relief nnd sat
isfaction It Is to 1110. and I know It
was your personnl Influence and Inter,
est In the matter that brought It about.
And I want to say to you I think It will
bo ono of the most Important features
of your administration and of this leg
Islature. nnd you mnny welt bo proud
of It, for when theso grounds are ob
tained and worked out 011 tho general
Masqueruy plan, thn Iowa capltol will
have a better setting than nny state
capltol In the nUltetl Stntes. And thero
will not bo a citizen who wilt then view
IL but what will not only nppreclnto
It, hut appreciate the fact that It was
taken hold of so early and successfully."
DriitnclitN I'rsr Mrnsnrr.
Druggists of tho state, and especially
tho Jobbers, aro up In arms over a pro
posal for 11 board to control tho snlo
of proprietary medicines nnd to Issuo
licenses to thoso who (nre authorized to
sell the same. Tho scheme Is to force
tho patent tnedlclno trado out of tho de.
pnrtmnt nnd gnoral stores, but It would
also be a great hindrance to tho gon
erat trade. Just why such a bill should
havo been Introduced Into In tho session
Is now clear, it is in tho hands of
the sifting committee.
Governor Clarko caused to be recalled
to tho senate a bill In regard to un
professional conduct on tho part of doc
tors, which contained a proviso that the
mnklng of a chnrgo manifestly exorbitant
for a surgical operation should bo deemed
unprofessional conduct. This wos bo
llevod to be a clnuso thnt would cause
n great deal of litigation nnd produco
no good results.
lCreet Women's llullillnit.
Committees of tho legislature have
agreed upon a bill for n $75,000 building
for women nnd children nt the stato fair
grounds. This will 1.0 tho only large

How to Beautify
Hair and Complexion
(Martyn's Hen' h Guide )
N thing has been found so efficient to
keep the scalp clean and healthy and th
hair lustrous, fluffy and growing ns a
shampoo prepared, by dissolving a tea
spoonful of ennthrox In n cup of hot
water. After rinsing the head feels good
nnd tho hair dries quickly without streak
ing. This shampoo costs llttlo and If
very easy to use. It removes dandruff
Instantly nnd prevents brtttlcncss and
spilt hairs.
A lotion, far better than face powder,
which seems part of skin when on and
whitens and beautifies tho complexion
can bo made at homo for llttlo money.
Dissolve 4 ounces spurmnx in H pint
wltrh hazel (or hot water), then add 3
tenspoonrnls glycerine. For taking away
that shiny, oily, sallow look and Improv
ing a "muddy" complexion It Is unequal
ed. It Is very liencflclnl to tho skin, does
not show as a powder or rub off easily
and gives to tho skin such n smooth, re- '
fined nppenranco. Advertisement.
