some money which it is alleged Fred Rohr-
man appropriated. There were seven ten
dollar bills stored away in his trunk, and
his trunk was left unlocked and he had
not seen his cash for three weeks. On
Tuesday he found it missing and it would
have been probably never discovered or
any of it recovered had not little boy, a
son of Handel, the landlord of next door on
Sunday afternoon, been afflicted with the
boyish appetite ofheaving bricks at pigeons.
With this intention, he went on the roof of
his domicile, and there saw Rohrman at
the base of the chimney. Rohrman sub
sided down the trapdoor, and the boy went
for the chimney with intent to push in a
loose brick with which to murder pigeons.
He seized loose brick, and with it drop
ped out four ten dollar bills, which 1t IA
now alleged were hidden by Rohrman,
The prisoner was held in 500 for trial.

al virtues of the most popular and efllca-
CiOus Of all vegetable tonics and altera-
tiyes-IIostetter's Stomach Bitters.
The concoCtcrs OF these "local bitters"
arc, in the truest sense Of the phrase, public
enemies. Their fiery potions inflame the
stomachs, stupefy the brains, and shatter
the nerves OF those who arc unwisc
enough to accept them as substitutes ior
the famous Vegetable Invigorant, that
for twenty years has been known through
out tue Western Hemisphere as a stan.
