AN IOWA MAN IN TROUBLE.
HAS Disappeared With Shortage in
His Accounts

HIS accounts.
Omaha, Sept. 11.-Ten thousand dol
lars has mysteriously disappeared from
the Nebraska National Bank, of this
city, and the shortage is found in the
accounts of Ned Copeland, railroad tell
err, who came here mere lad ten years
ago from Arion, Iowa. Copeland was
last heard of in Washington. d. c.. and
seems to have disappeared. Were it not
for this fact, he could easily disarm
the suspicion of his friends. AS a mat
ter of fact, even now many assert that
he is innocent and his wife declares he
is not defaulter.
1t is very mysterious affair all
around. On Aug. 2 the Burlington rail-
road deposited $4,000 in the bank and
drew $4,000. The books were altered SO
that each amount was $4,000 larger.
Copeland knew that If this error was
not discovered that night, it would not
be discovered till the first of the month
He had resigned his position to take
effect the first week in August. His
place could not be filed, and he was in.
duced to remain until the 18th. He ther
left with his wife and family for Arion
saying he wished to join his father i,
the lumber business there. Instead o
REMAINING he took trip through tn

IOWA MAN STRIKES IT RICH.
Interested in Valuable Gold Mine
I'm Ark n nRaa


Extra, Sept. 1.-Mr. w. F. stotts has
arrived home in this city from Mena,
Ark. where he is interested quite ex-
tensively in some fine gold and copper
mines. Mr.. stotts feels quite elated
over his prospects. While there he sunk
a shaft and took out several hundred
pounds of ore and taking it to the
smelling works near by brought the
proceeds of the mill home with him in
the shape of bullion which runs about
5000 in gold and about $25 in silver and
copper to the ton. He says when they
get their own mills in operation they
can mine and mill the ore at a cost of.
$3.50 per ton, which would leave a net
profit of over $3.50 to the ton. They have
a fine water power right at hand, 1900
horse power capacity, plenty Of fine
timber and several fine springs with
medicinal properties on their claims.

Packing and Provision Company has
scored another point in closing $4,000
deal by which eight car loads of lard
were sold to Chaplin & Edwards, of Chi
cago. to be shipped direct to Liverpool,
England. The provision company is
making an enviable record, and the
constant increase in business circles is
proving that republican prosperity is a
good factor to stand by. Our two rail-
roads are having much trouble here on
account of scarcity of cars. being un-
able to secure the necessary for moving
stock and grain.

was for many years in business in this

of a general breaking down of health.
His death was sudden. He was found
Tuesday morning in his living apart
ments over one of the city drug stores
in an unconscious condition. Physi-
clans did all they could to revive him,
but to no avail. 1t was thought at first
that he had taken an overdose of NOR
phine, but paralysis of the brain was
later found to have been the cause. He
fingered until Wednesday noon.

regiment on the camp grounds at the
opening of the Nebraska G.. a. r.. re-

the source it did, it was as surprising
as it was dramatic.
Chaplain Mailley has for years been
a populist, but his address last evening
was for unconditional, whole hearted
support of the administration policy in
the Philippines. His fiery denunciation
of those who would leave the task un-
finished fairly raised the soldiers to
their feet. Chaplain Mailley said in
closing:
