Employees of Des Mones Drug Com
pany Under Arrest for Theft.
| Special to mes-Repubican.
Des Moines. July 19.-Henry Gegner,
Charles Chittenden, Earl Rodgers, Per-
nv Little and Henry Shafer, employees
of the Des Moines Drug Company are
under arrest charged with participation
in or knowledge of the theft of about
$500 worth of goods from the Des
Moines Drug Company's establish
ment during the past year. Gegner and
Chittenden are drivers of wagons own
ed by the Bolton Transfer Company.
but devoted to the work of the Des
Moines Drug Company. Henry Shafer
is a driver of one of the wagons run
by the company itself. Little has been
shipping clerk for about nine months.
Rodgers was shipping clerk before Lit
tie.
The system which the officers allege
was worked was in operation about Il
year. They charge that the theft was
committed in connection with filling
out of town orders. For instance, man
i'm a country town would order Il GER
tain amount of goods of the Des Moines
Drug Company; the shipping clerk
would send out on the wagons convey
ing consignments to the freight houses,
"a much larger quantity of the goods
ticketed to the buyer: when the driver
would get the goods to the depot he
would bill as much as was ordered to
the out of town customer and have the
remainder sent to a private customer or
taken to his house and subsequently
disposed of. In this way, the officers
allege the arrested employees of the
concern were able, by working togeth-
er, to make way with several hundred
dollars worth OF goods.
The money which it is alleged the
men secured from the sale of the goods
purloned from the company did not go
for gambling, wine or women. 1t is
said that the men were working for
very moderate salaries and their total
income from the sales, if they are gull
ty, did not amount to 50 {. week each
during the time the conspiracy is all
legged to have been in existence.

Little by little the people Of the West are
awaking to realization of the fact that canned
meats are just as desirable fresh meats.
They are palatable, wholesome. nutritious, and
economical. Miners ranchers, and others, who
are unable to secure fresh meats, have used
canned meats for years. City jewellers are fol-
lowing their example.
The housewife who can not find what she
wants among the canned meat products of the
CIdahy Packing Co. Is hard to please For
breakfast what is better than Vienna sausage:
For lunch she can place before her lord and
pork and beans. Sliced beef makes delicious
sandwiches. For special occaSions-a recep-
