DIES MONIES WINS A VICTORY.
Annexation of Its Suburbs Upheld by
the Supreme Court.

Annexation of It's Suburbs Upheld by
the Supreme Court.
DIES MONIES, Jan. 21.-(Special Tele-
gram)-The supreme court began its Janu-
airy session this morning and one Of the
first cases in which an opinion was handed
down was the famous Des Moines annex
alton case, in which an effort was made
to establish the illegality of the annexation
by Des Moines of its suburbs, in the spring
of 1890. The decision is a complete vic
tory for the city, but the court admits that
the law and the constitution are both against
the decision. which is made on the grounds
of public policy. The case was entitled West
against the City. and was brought to set
aside assessments for improvements abutting
on property in one of the annexed suburbs, 1t
being alleged that the suburb was not le-
gally a part of the city. The legislature
in 1890 passed a law to enable the city to
annex It's suburbs. Those taken in were
North Des Molnes, University Place, Sebas-
topol and five smaller towns, all of which
had separate organizations. The annexed
territory includes forty-six Of the ffty-four
act under which the suburbs were annexed
was questioned in the suit. West is a very
small property owner, and 1t has been well
known that he was only a nominal plain
tiff. The court holds that the law was UNI
constitutional, and that at the time it was
made the annexation was illegal; but 1t says
that the fact that the plaintiff has so long
slept on his rights now stops him from
claiming them. 1t would be impossible to
ever untangle the affairs Of the separate
corporations, If they should once more be

GET FLESH.

Get Strength, VigOr, Clear Complexion
and Good Digestion, Not by Patent
Medicine, But i'm Nnture's Own Way.
Any honest physician will tell you that
there is but one way to get increased flesh,
all the patent medicines and cod liver oils
to the contrary Notwithstanding.
Nature has but one way to increase flesh,
strength and vigor, mind and body, and that
Is through the stomach by wholesome food,
we'll digested. There is no reason or COM
mon sense in any other method whatever.
People are thin, run down, nervous, pale
and shaky in their nerves simply because
their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dyspepsia,
but the fact remains that they do not eat
enough food, or what they eat is not quickly
and properly digested, as it should be.
Or. Harlandson says the reason Is because
the stomach lacks certain digestive acids
and peptones and deficient secretion Of gas
trio juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is to sup
ply what the weak stomach lacks. There
are several coed preparations which VIII DO
this, but none so readily as Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets, which are designed especially
for all stomach troubles and which cure all
digestive weakness on the common sense
plan of furnishing the digestive principles
which the stomach lacks.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give perfect d.
eestlon. First effect is to increase the appe-
lite, and Increased vigor, added flesh, pure
blood and strength of nerve and muscle is
the perfectly natural result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the safest
tonic known and will cure any form OF stom-
ach trouble except cancer Of the stomach.

30, 600 bushels OF corn, and this, with a large

big Roll of Mys~tcriOus1y Missing

Money
Miss Anna Matson, a young woman who
was keeping office for a local physician, had
an interesting experience among some of
her friends Sunday night. She accepted an
oft repeated invitation to stay all night at
their home. She carried with her a roll of
money, amounting to nearly $500, and 1t was
after this money was shown that the invi-
tation to remain with the family over night
became irresistible. The young woman had
the money in a pocketbock with two COM
partments. The roll on one side contained
$l20. Before retiring for the night she
placed the wealthy wallet under her pill
low. The next morning she put it back in
her pocket without counting it and left the
house. During the day she discovered that
$50 of the $l20 was missing. Her hostess
was unable to throw any light upon the
mystery, and the young woman appealed to
the police. Officer Alberti undertook to do
a little detective work, and discovered at
the outset that the family had a mortgage
of $75 to meet at once. An earnest inter
view with the woman led her to express a
willingness to search the bedroom in the
officers presence. She was remarkably sue
cessful. Underneath the mattress, next to
the springs, she found a roll Of $50. The
officer took the $50 and told her that the
other 500 must be forthcoming by G o'clock.
The hint was productive 'of satisfactory re-
suits. An hour before the time arrived the
woman appeared with $780, Mp arrests were
made. a-LL

During his examination Mr.. Martin tes-
titled that on the morning of December 27
Isaac Dickerson had taken up a note signed
by Benton Green for $4,000 and had re-
placed 1t by notes signed by Isaac and f.
j. Dickerson. He was allowed to show that
on the morning Of December q the Benton
Green note was among the banks assets,
but was not there on the evening of that
date.
At the afternoon session Mr.. Martin was
asked by Mr.. Boorman IL he had a state
ment Of the resources and liabilities of the
Cass County bank prepared from the books
Of the bank and the reports Of the receivers.
The defense objected on the ground that
the statement had been prepared by parties
other than the witness. The objection was
sustained.
The expert testified that on September l.,
1898, the aggregate Of notes and overdrafts
due the bank from directors and others was
1928, 1896 This was included in the bills
payable to the bank. The amount of this
indebtedness at the time of the failure of
the bank on December 2S, 1893, was S275,-
9l2.04.
HIS CRosS-EXAMINATIoN.
Mr.. Martin was asked by Mr.. Mcpherson
II he remembered how he was sick at Glen
wood every time the defense wanted him
TO testify, and II he remembered how he
was closeted with the attorneys for the state
trying to reconcile his statements before
the juries In the cases against Yetzer and
Dickerson. The questions were ruled out.
Mr.. Mcpherson then sought to ascertain
how mpch time Mr.. Martin had spent in
going over the books Of the bank. Mr.. Mar
tin testified that he went TO work in the
bank in February, 1894, and had been there
a good share OF the time since. He had
many statements of the condition Of the
bank. Some Of these had been destroyed
as being OF no use and others had been only
partial statements, which had been destroyed
when complete statements had been pre-
pared.
Have you made two statements concern
ing the same phases Of the case. concern
ing the same lists Of indebtedness, that
showed alike?' asked Mr.. Mcpherson.

such reports and the statements had tailed.

Forgeries that are said, to- aggregate at
least $40, 900 and to cover a period OF several
years were discovered in Minden Yesterday.
Minden Is one Of the small and thrifty villages
In Pottawattamie county and is supported en-
tirely by the rich farming community around
II. One OF the largest mercantile enter
prlses in the village is the Seybert & Wiese
Lumber company OF Avoca, This company
supplies all the lumber and building materials
used by the farmers, and the business done
has been very heavy. The general manager
OF the company is Charles. Aultensperger
who has been held in high esteem by the COM
pany and the community. Aultensperger has
had full charge of the business, selling the
lumber and making the collections. Yester-
day the village was thrown into something
little short of commissions by the arrest OF
the manager upon the charge of forgery.
Aultensperger's plan for defrauding his pa
irons was a bold one. He would make sales
and get the cash, or settlements from sales
previously made, put the money into his
pocket and then forge the names of the GUS
toners to promissory notes. These notes he
would send to the lumber company. The
notes in time would be returned to him for
collection, and. IL hard pressed by the COM
pany, he would make a partial payment and
settle the balance by forging a new note. In
this way he was able to keep the company
ignorant Of his methods of doing business.
The denouement came when the company
undertook to make some Of the collections
without his assistance. The notes sought to
be collected were pronounced forgeries by
the men whose names they bore. 1nvestiga-
tions were begun at once and 1t was found
that the fraudulent paper Aultensperger had
noated Appropriated almost SIC, 900. His vic
tins were confined almost entirely to the
wealthy farmers, whose notes were always
negotiable. The farming community is about
as badly torn I'D over the matter as the
,Cass county farmers were over the Atlantic
bank failure. -.
Aultensperger was arrested and taken to
Avoca and will have his preliminary IN
ton today. Threats of violence were numer-
