County commissioners at the reg ular session' Monday, made no of ficial "investigation" on the charges that Sheriff Clarlc was responsible for empty whisky bottles alleged to have been found on a ledge of the comity court house. "And as far as I am concerned," County Commissioner Tom O'Con nor stated, "there will not be any in vestigation. What was there to it? A few empty bottles; what charges could grow out of that?" Hoffman' Not Present Commissioner O'Connor was quoted in an evening paper on Sat urday evening, September 21, as saying: "If there is anything crooked going on around this court house I want to know about it. The county commissioners should make an investigation." County Commissioner Hoffman, who was quoted in the same story as saying: "I'm going into that as soon as I get to the court house. I had no idea liiCre was anything going on in the court house that should not go on. It is a painful duty, but I feel that it must be per formed." Commissioner Hoffman was not present Monday morning when the board met, despite the fact that the county commissioners had made the announcement in the evening paper that they had decided to hold their investigation of the matter at Mon day's meeting. No Inquiry Planned. Commissioner Compton said there was no investigation planned. "What was there to it?" he asked "It is said they found empty whisky bottles. If the bottles had been full, then there might have been some thing to investigate. As it stands, what's to be done about empty bot tles?" Commissioner McDonald was noncommittal on the matter. Commissioner Neble was "up in the air" concerning' the matter. He stated that he was of the opinion that there 'was to be an investiga tion made of the matter Monday, but that he thought that action had "fell through." 'T think the commissioners should make the investigation, but what am I to do about it?" he added. "If I make the motion to go ahead, it would be voted down. I guess there won't' be anything done about it, but any suspicion to wards Sheriff Clark should be cleared." Ronneberg Held on Charge Of Robbing A. N. Smith Joe Ronneberg, was arrested Mon day afternoon, charged with the robbery of Arthur N. Smith, secre tary of the Rees Print'ng company, who was relieved of $1,300 on a Far nam street car Saturday.

Clears Skin of Erup tions Drives Poison From the System Get it fixed in your mind that skin eruptions, Scrofula, Eczema, burning, itching skin, and all skin diseases are due entirely to impure and infected blood. If the trouble was on the outside of the skin, by simply washing and keeping it clean you could obtain relief not even ointments, lotions and salves would be necessary. Agree with us in this belief, and your trouble can be re- abatement of your trouble, and finally make you entirely well. Fifty years ago S. S. S. was discovered and given to suffering mankind. During this period it has proven its remarkable curative properties as a Wood purifier and tonic, and has relieved thousands of eases of dis ease caused by poor or impure blood, and chronic or inherited blood dis eases. You can be relieved, but you must take S. S. S. Take it if only pimples appear, for they denote bad blood, r may be followed by the sufferii . from torturing skin erup- tions. Therefore be sure.

Adv. 1 wi' lit MAN IS KILLED WHEN TRAN AND WAGON COLLIDE Mike Finnert Is Victim of Ac cident at Fatal Railroad Crossing in Council Bluffs. Mike Finnerty, 36 years old and unmarried, was almost instantly killed yesterday when struck by a fast mail train on the Northwestern railroad. He was driving a deliv ery wagon for the Cronkelton gro cery store and was struck when he drove on the Avenue C crossing without noting the approach of the rapidly moving train. The crossing is classed as one of the dangerous ones of the city. Residences and trees obscure the view of the tracks and Finnerty was still further handicapped by the rain and mist which was falling at the time. He was driving a two horse team. The wagon was re duced to wreckage and Finnerty vas dying when picked up after being hurled several yards by the force of the blow. One horse was instantly killed and the other so badly hurt that it had to be shot. The train was going about 30 miles an hour, and the trainmen say the bell was ringing and the whistle had been sounded at the proper stations. Coroner Cutler, who took charge of the body, will hold an in quest to fix the responsibility. It is the second accident the Cronkel tons have had at the same point. A year ago an automobile delivery wagon driven by George Decker, was struck by a Northwestern fast mail train and demolished, but the driver escaped unhurt. Mr. Finnerty was the brother of Mrs. John D. Hannan, whose hus band, former county auditor, was killed in an automobile accident a year ago on the Lincoln highway He has been living at the home of his sister, at 824 Seventh avenue, and had been materially aiding Mrs Hannan in providing for the family of ornhaned children.

Est:mate Corn Crop at Half Normal Year's Yield The Burlington estimates that Ira's c rn will aggregate a 50 per cent of the normal yield. In ti.e northern half of Nebraska the crop in most localities is very close to an average, but through the South Platte country, where the acreage is the largest, it has been badly cut by drouth. In the Mis souri river counties there was .con siderable damage, but it is figured that it will be better than a half crop. Sufar beets have done fairly well and the estimate is that the yield will be around 10 tons to the acre. In the western part of the state and in a good many localities in the northern section the potato yield is fully up to the average, but else where the crop is short. YOUR SICK CHILD ISCONSII ATED!

"When I first began taking Tan lac, a little over a month ago, I only weighed one hundred pounds and now I weigh one hundred and nineteen pounds," declared Mrs. O. L. Henderson, residing at 969 North 25th avenue, Omaha, while in a Sherman & MeConnell Drug stove, recently. "Ever since an operation three years ago," she continued, "my health has been very poor, and I fell off fifty-six pounds, going down from one hundred and fifty-six to even one hundred. I had no appe tite at all and was forced to live for a long time on nothing but milk and eggs. I suffered from indigestion very badly and gas would form on my stomach causing me awful smothering spells, I was so weak and dizzy at times I could hardly stand up. In fact, I was sick in bed a greal deal of the time, unable t6 any of my housework. I final ly took rheumatism in my left leg and up to the time I began using Tanlac I had been unable .0 get up and walk for two months. "I tried a great many different medicines, but no real benefit came to me until my husband got me some Tanlac. My improvement waa not very rapid at first, but I kept gradually improving, and now my appetite is so Dig 1 can hardly eat enough to satisfy me, and all my bad feelings are gone. I never have a sign of indigestion or gas now and the dizziness is all gone. The rheumat'sm has disappeared from my leg, too, and I am just feeling fine. I eat all I want, sleep sound ly every night and feel strong and well all the time. I am now able to do all my housework and believe I am go;ngr to get all my lost weight back.
