RATHER THAN GO INTO COURT
BRETHREN HAD MADE AGAINST
HIM.
FOUND BY POLICE IN A sTUpoR.
He Is Taken to the City Hospital
Hopes of His Recovery Are
Entertained.

R. A. Maurer, formerly the proprietor
of saloon at ASP Sibley street, who was
recently arrested on the charge of mis-
appropriating an ounce of chloroform
at the Arcade hotel, on East Seventh
street yesterday afternoon, and was re-
moved to the city hospital in a pre-
carious condition. After working sew
eral hours on Maurer the physicians at
the hospital said last evening that he
would likely recover.
The charge of larceny against Maurer
in connection with the lodge funds, was
called in the police court yesterday, but,
the accused, who had been released
upon his own recognizance, failed to
appear and the police were looking for
him, when 1t was learned that he had
taken chlOroform. Maurer took a room
at the Arcade hotel yesterday morning,
and nothing was seen of him, until
shortly after o'clock, when he was
found by the proprietor in semi
conscious condition in the hallway.
Maurer was very feeble and muttered
irratioually about money matters. Sus-
pecting something wrong the proprietor
searched the room and found, behind
the washstand, an empty bottle label
ed "chloroform." DR.. Dohm was hur-
riedly summoned and after applying re-
storatives. had Maurer taken TO the
city hospital.
Maurer, who is better known among
his associates as Dutch Dick" con-
Quoted the saloon at 452 Sibley street,
for several years, and is a member of
the Retail Liquor Dealers association.
When the trouble arose over the alIeg-
ed misrepresentation OF the lodge funds
he lost, he was compelled to dispose of
his business, and the subsequent worry
over his difficulties is believed to have
led to his taking the dose Of chloroform.

Mr.. Warmers years of experience in the

which mankind is liable. Since he severed
his connection with the Warner Safe Cure
Company, some five years ago, he has been

the Warner Nazaro Medicine Co.
He has completed arrangements with i

people who could not otherwise avail them
selves of their services. In this way special
treatments will be prescribed for each class
of disease. and special ad:ice given to each

Among the diseases for which special
treatment can be had are scrotula and al
