He Confesses to the Theft of Lawyer
Oatman's Typewriter.
T. II. Hammersley was examined in
the Police Court yesterday on charge of
burglary in taking typewriter from the
office of C. II. Oatman some time ago.
Mr.. Oatman stated that the typewriter
was taken from his office during the night
of January 18th.
H. j. Hitchcock identified the machine
as the one got from his firm by Mr.. Oat-
man. He went to Stockton and got 1t
and saw Hammersley in jail there, and
was told that he had been trying to sell
the typewriter.
Hammersley took the stand after it had
been explained to him that lie need not
testify unless he chose. He said that he
and a man who called himself Charles
Allen entered the room through the WIN
dow.
Witness took the typewriter, but Allen
did not want hlm to and told him to leave
it. Witness took it, however, and Allen
tried the safe and took 81 TO 70 worth OF
stamps and pencils. They took it out
;nto the alley. The Iowa State Band was
giving concert at the theater opposite
the back entrance.
He described how they lodged police
man with II and took 1t up back OF the
Golden Eagle and hid il. He atterward
put it in a box and shipped it by Wells
Fargo's Express 10 Stockton. He tried 10
sell 1t there and was arrested.
In view of his confession, the court
sald there was no alternative left but 10
hold to answer, which was done, and bail
was fixed at 81 900.
The defendant, who IS a nice looking
young fellow of 10 or % years and has no
appearance OF a criminal, evidently ex
cited the sympathy OF the court and spec
tators. and did not seem to realize the
gravity OF his position. Had it not been
for his confession 1t might have been
difficult to hold him ON the charge.

When War is Declared

Against mans happiness by his stom-
ach, the enemy may be pacified and
brought speedily and easily to terms.
That potent regulator of digestion, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, disciplines the
rebellious organ thoroughly. Indiges-
ton arises from weakness of the stomach.
and the food in it, for want OF the power
to digest, decomposes and acidifies, Civ
ing rise to heartburn. tlatulence and pain,
besides multitude Of symptoms both
changeful and perplexing. But peace
soon reigns when the great stomachic is
resorted to and used with persistence.
Dyspepsia gives rise to morbid discom-
pOsure of mind, and even sleeplessness
and hypochondria in chronic cases. To
the complete dismissal of these the Bit
ters is fully adequate. Liver complaint,
constipation, debility, rheumatism and
malaria are completely subdued by this
genial medicine.
