Touring the World.

W. Reyman. the man who is going
around the world on bicycle, came
in from the west this forenoon. He
left New York City February 13,
1897, and toured the United King
dom, and then crossed over to France
and rode through that country, Ger
many, Russia, Siberia, Manchuria,
Corea and Japan, and then crossed
the Pacific to San Francisco. He
left San Francisco two weeks ago. He
is not riding on wager, but in pur-
suance Of plan formed when he was
boy. He claims to be the first man
to ride a wheel through Siberia
Manohuria and Corea. Reyman ex-
poets to get to New York about
Christmas, but says if there is much
country yet to rlde over like the Ne.
vada deserts he will not get there be-
fore the end OF the century. Nevada,
he says, is the worst country to ride
through he has struck on his trip.
He renamed in town this afternoon
to repair his bicycle and expects to
continue his journey tonight.

Tempered with Record. !.

Des Moines. Nov. 24.-It was discov-
cred; at the clerk of the courts office
yesterday that the public records had
been tempered with. 1t seems in the
case of Viola Meyers VS.. Charles Mey-
ers, record of which is made on
page 1888 of Equity No. 90, an erasure,
has been made of a portion of the fees
in this case. The only purpose of this
erasure would be to escape payment
of the fees.
5 II. G. Carpenter appeared at the
clerks office yesterday morning and
stated that all fees in the case had noa
been paid. The original papers and
the amount received from the attor-
neys for Mrs. Meyers, differed to the
extent of 81. An investigation reveal
ed the fact that some one erased the
first charge-that for copying fee. An
erasure had also been made at the top
of the page. All the clerks in the office
were called and after thorough in
vestigation it was found the tamper-
ing with the record has been made by
some one outside the office. "A nota-
ton to this effect was entered upon

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate

There is but one way to cure it.
