BOARD MEMBERS
IGNORE CHARGES
AGAINST CLARK
Nothing to the Matter, Con
sensus of Opinion of Com
missioners Regarding
Empty Bottles.
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. Ronne
berg had about $350 on his person
and a diamond which the police sus
pect is the property of Mrs. George
Brandeis, who lost a gem valued at
$2,000 several days ago.

GREAT OLD REMEDY
FOR SKIN DISEASES
S. S. S. 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

tions. Therefore be sure. Don't 1

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.

Among the various and extensive
lines of work of the war activities

that of according to the bodies of
soldiers or sailors who have died in
the service suitable and approprite
burial, together with military or
naval honors.
A sub-committee has special
charge of this matter and is in
touch with military and naval or
ganizations, so that it has been pro
viding military funerals for several
Omaha boys who have given their
lives for their country.
While the committee has no wish
to intrude in any way, it is anxious
to have all the people of Omaha
know and understand that they are
ready to do everything possible to
be of service to families in their
bereavement, and they hope that
there will be no hesitancy in calling
upon the committee .through the
Chamber of Commerce, in order
that Omaha may show the respect
which all its citizens are more than
anxious should be shown.

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!
LOOKATWUE
If cross, feverish or bilious
give "California Syrup
of Figs."
No matter what ails your child, a
gentle, thorough laxative should al
ways be the first treatment given.
If your little one is out-of sorts,
half-sick, isn't resting, eating and
acting naturally look, Mother! see
if tongue is coated. This is a sure
sign that its little stomach, liver
and bowels are clogged with wastu.
When cross, irritable, feverish,
stomach sou-, breath bad or has
stomach ache, diarrhoea,' sore
throat, full of cold, give a tiaspuon
ful of "California Syrup of Figs,"
and in a few hours all the consti
pated poison, undigested food and
sour bile gently moves out of its
little bowels without griping, and
you have a well, playful child again.
Mothers can rest easy after giv
ing this harmless "fruit laxative,"
because it never fails to cleanse the
little one's liver and bowels and
sweeten the stomach and they dear,
ly love its pleasant taste. Full di
rections for babies, children of all
ages and for grown-ups printed on
each bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask your druggist for a bottle of
"California Syrup of rigs;' then
see that it is made by the "Cali-
fornha Fig Syrup Company." Adv.

Since Taking Tanlac
Gains Nineteen
Pounds.
"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. Tanac certainly has been a
blessing me and I would advise
anybody who is in a run-down con
