 As soon as the visitor had left the office, however. Mosley and Newgass telephoned the police headquarters what had hap pened. The check was drawn on the Ma tional Live Stock bank and Police Captain Lavine immediately dispatched two detect ives to the bank. Mcfarland was stand ing at the cashiers window with the check in his hand when the officers entered. He was so intent upon changing the check for currency that he failed to notice the de- tectives until they stood one on each elbow and seized him. Mcfarland was quickly disarmed and few minutes later was be- hind the bars of a cell at the police station.
 According to Mcfarland the 0416 which he collected represented the amount due him from Delfour & Co.,, stock yard com

NEGRO UNDER BED.
Will King Played Star Engagement But Was Landed by Officer Johnston.

Will King, a negro burglar, who suc-
 ceeded in entering two residences before day yesterday morning was landed in the
 city prison few hours later through the
 clever work of Officer Johnston of the po- lice department. .s.5
 About 4 o'clock yesterday morning Mrs.
 Joe Ruble, who resides at No. 1914 Fourth
 avenue, was awakened by @ noise in the
 house and immediately called her husband, who made nasty investigation and found
 that his pants and several small articles
 were missing.
 About an hour later a negro was discov- cred in the residence of George Potts, No. 1616 Third avenue
 Mrs, Potts and her 16-year-old daughter occupied a bed in a room adjoining MT. Potts room and about o'clock the young lady was awakened by a noise which seemed to come from under the bed. She bravely got up and peering under the bed she discovered a negro man stretched out
 at full length. She immediately gave the alarm by calling to her mother who was awakened in time to see the negro escape
 through an open window through which he had probably effected an entrance. Mr. Potts, who was sleeping in an adjoining room, was also awakened by the screams of his daughter, but when he reached the room the negro had gone.
 The police department was notified and Officer Johnston was detailed upon the case. He went at once to the Potts resi- dence and took in the situation, getting a full description of the negro from the two ladies who saw him make his escape. in arresting Will King, a negro who an- swered the description, in a nearby alley. The negro was at once taken to MT. Potts residence where he was identified by both
 Mrs. Potts and her daughter.
 A pair of pants were found under the
 window through which the negro escaped, and as they did not belong to MT. Potts it was suggested to the officer that they were perhaps stolen from some other place. The negro and the pants were taken to police headquarters and in a short time MT. Ruble
 came down town to report that his house had been burglarized and his pants stolen.
 Officer Johnston brought in the pants
 which he had found under the window at the Potts residence and MT. Ruble at once
 identified them as his lost trousers
 The negro was locked up on the charge
 of burglary and grand larceny. He admits
 that he has served a term in the state penitentiary for a similar offense.

A GREAT REMEDY


DR.. Redmond, a specialist in the study
and treatment of piles and rectal dis.
eases, recently stated that the Pyramid
Pile Cure, the new discovery for the cure
of piles, was the most remarkable RENE.
dy he had ever seen or tried in one re.
spect; and that was the instant relief ex.
perienced in all cases, no matter how Sc.
we're, from the moment the remedy was
applied. This was the more surprising tc
him because he had carefully analyzed
the preparation and no trace Of opium
cocaine or similar poison could be detect
cd
Physicians look with great favor upon
the Pyramid Pile Cure, Because it is rap
idly taking place of surgical operations
and because il is so simple, so easily ap-
piled and contains no mineral or other
poisons so commonly used in cures.
DR.. Esterbrook reports that the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure not only cures the various
forms of piles, but never fails to give i'm
diate relief on the first application. nc
matter how severe the pain or discomfort
may be.
People who have suffered from piles foi
years are often astonished at the instant
relief experienced from the first applica-
ton. Another important advantage Is the
fact that any one can use the remedy
without detention from business or inter-
ference with daily occupation. Sold by
oruggtsts at so cents per package.
