Hydrophobia Prevalent Among the
CANNES at Fort Dodge.
Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge. Dec. 4.-Mayor Bennett
yesterday morning issued an order that
all dogs must be muzzled from the 9Th
of the present month to the Goth. This
action upon the part of the mayor is due
to small epidemic of hydrophobia
which has broken out at different times
this fall and at present promises to
cause apprehension in the minds of par
ents for the safety of their children. A
prominent veterinarian in the city is of
the opinion that the disease was brought
to the city about the middle of last Sep
TENDER and that it has been Turing in
the systems of number of CANNES ever
since. Contrary to the general belief
that hydrophobia is dangerous only and
liable to break out during the heat of
the summer months. 1t is asserted upon
good authority that it is just as liable
to break out in the middle of the winter
aa In the summer. If the disease is in
the system of the dog it will manifest
itself in the course Of time. Mayor Ben
nett. in view of the number of dogs that
have been killed recently. has issued the
order that all dogs not provided with
muzzle after the 9Th Of this month II
caught running at large will be shot.

ROBBERS ON TRIAL.

Greenville Bank Burglars Not Likely
to Hang for sundbiad's Murder.
Storm Lake, Dec. Alt Is the general
opinion in court room circles here that
the Greenvil,e bank robhers-Brooks
and Phillips-will not hang for the kill
ing of Iodine and Sundblad.
Prisoner Phillips, as rule, always
sits quite still and passive, while
Brooks generally presents the appear
ance OF always chewing gum"
Among the most important witnesses
examined yesterday were Mrs. Sund-
blad, widow OF one OF the men for whose
murder the prisoners are being tried;
also Sheriff c. j. Parker
Mrs. Sundblad said that her husband
before dying, expressed the belief. that
Philips, the negro, was the one who shot
him. 1t is thought also that Phillips
is the man who shot Iodine.
Brooks told one of the witnesses that
he did not aim to hit any person when
he was shooting. He claimed he was
aiming at the team which was drawing
their pursuers, thinking they would
have a better chance for escape IL the
horses of their pursuers We're disabled.
The court room is crowded nearly all
the time and the progress OF the trial
is the main topic OF conversation.

Waterloo, Dec. 4.-The report Of the

West Sixth street this city, to believe
tina. the dead man is his brother. He
tells strange story OF the losing Of the
identity of the brother AT the begin
ming of the civil war the two men lived
at independence. Ia. G. p. Bouck was
married and his brother made his home
with them. He enlisted and went to the
war, joining the Ninth Iowa Infantry.
The camp was stationed at Dubuque
where without the knowledge of many
of his friends he was married. There
was also In the same company soldier
named John Coates. Mrs Bouck Joined
met Coates who fell In love with her
The Ninth Iowa went south and nothing
was heard of him for many months. His
wife remained In Iowa near Indepen-
dence. A few years after John Coates
returned and gave out the news that his
friend, husband Of the woman he
courted had been killed in battle near
Memphis. The friends could never
learn all the facts and Sent friends and
went themselves to the scene but could
find no trace Of the death. Coates later
married Mrs. Bouck and still lives in
the western part OF Iowa. Mr.. Coates
Is now dead.
The brother OF Mr.. Bouck who was
supposed to have been killed was of
thrifty habits and was always q money
maker His description fits the descrip-
ton OF the dead man at Gruver. The
suicide was q man OF sixty years, had
only one arm and was reported to be

his person at the time OF his death.
He had lived queer life and not much
was known OF his past. He was thought
to have lived near Freeport. Ill, and
this also helps Mr., Bouck to think 1t his
brother as he lived In Illinois before the
war. He will make q thorough invesu-
cation Of the affair

After Consent of Voters.

Missouri Valley, Dec. 4.-The saloon
men of this city are now circulating a
consent petition and it is being signed
by nearly everyone. In order to secure
the petition it is necessary to get SO
per cent of those who voted at the last
election. That this will be accomplished
Their is very little doubt as the business
men of this city are in favor of the petit
ton almost to man. The saloons pay
to the city over $1,000 year and many
citizens have come to the conclusion
that it is better to have saloons and get
the revenue than to have bookkeeping.
The mayor and city council have signed
an agreement to see that the saloons
are run strictly according to law.

WHAT GOES UP
Must Come Down.

y
Nothing is more certain than that the
use of so-called tonics. stimulants and
medicines. which depend upon alcohol
for their effect. is injurious to health
il the long run.
What goes up must come down ano
the elevation of spirits, the temporary
sxhiliration resulting from q dose OF
medicine containing alcohol. Will GER
tainly be followed in a few hours by a
corresponding depression to relieve
which another dose must be taken.
In other words, many liquid patent
medicines derive their effect entirely
from the alcohol they contain.
Alcohol, and medicines containing 1T,
are temporary stimulants and not in
any sense a true tonic. In fact 1t is
doubtful il any medicine or drug is a
real tonic.
A true tonic is something which will
renew. replenish and build up the ex-
hausted nervous system and wasted It's
sues of the body, something that will
enrich the blood and endow it with the
proper proportions of red and white
corpuscles, which prevent or destroy
disease germs. This is what real
tonic should do and no drug or alcoholic
stimulant will do it.
The only true tonic in nature is
wholesome food, thoroughly digested.
Every particle Of nervous energy. every
minute muscle, fibre and drop of blood
Il created daily from the food we digest.
The mere eating of food has little to
do with the repair of waste tissue. but
the perfect digestion of the food eaten
has everything to do with it.
The reason SO few people have perfect
digestion is because from wrong habits
OF living the stomach has gradually lost
the power to secrete the gastric Juice,
peptones and acids in sufficient guam
yity.
To cure indigestion and stomach
troubles 1t is necessary to take after
meals some harmless preparation which
will supply the natural peptone and di-
astase which every weak stomach lacks.
and probably the best preparation OF
this character is Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets which may be found in every
drug store and which contain In pleas
ant, palatable form the wholesome pep
tone and diastase which nature requires
for prompt digestion.
One or two OF these excellent tablets
taken after meals will prevent souring,
fermentation and acidity and insure
complete digestion and assimilation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are equally
valuable for little children as for adults.
as they contain nothing harmful or
stimulating, but only the natural diges-
tives. 81 s.
One OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
digest 1900 grains OF meat, eggs or other
wholesome food. and they are in every
sense a genuine tonic because they
bring about in the only natural way a
restorative Of nerve power, building
mp Of lost tissue and appetite. in the on
~ way it can be done by the digestion
and assimilation OF wholesome food.

basis for the cost OF paintings was the
paintings at the congressional library
