Lost His
Rheumatism
By the use of a bottle of
St. Jacobs Oil.

SERGEANT JEREMIAH MAHER, of Ard
cath, Royal Irish Constabulary, says: "My
friend, Mr.. Thomas Hand, has been a great
sufferer from rheumatism in the back and
joints for the last four years, during which
time he has employed many different
methods of treatment, but obtained no relief
whatever, and for the last two years has
been unable to walk without a stick, and
sometimes two sticks, and was in great pain
constantly. 1 induced him to procure
bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, which he applied
with the most astonishing and marvellous
effects. Before he had finished using the
contents of the first bottle he could walk
readily without the aid of stick, and after
few applications from the second bottle he
was free from pain, and has been ever since;
and although fifty years of age and farmer,
he can walk and work without experiencing
any pain or difficulty whatever"

PLUMBERS ON A STRIKE.
Waterloo Workmen Want More Wages
and Shorter Day.

Special to Times Republican.
Waterloo, April 16.-Another strike
was inaugurated in Waterloo Monday
night when the master plumbers of the
city finally refused to grant the de-
mands of the local union plumbers for
an increase in pay and reduction of
hours. The men refused to return to
work yesterday and the plumbing bus
mess of the city is practically tied up.
The difference between the employers
and the men is one which it seems can
be satisfactorily adjusted, and 1T is
said the representatives Of both sides
are anxious to have the trouble settled
as soon as possible.
The master plumbers say they are
willing to call nine hours days work,
but they hold to the old scale OF wages,
which was So for some of the men and
$3.50 for others. They say this is but
fair and just, as some of the workmen
are worth more than others. On that
rock the employers and employees split.
The latter claim the prices they ask
the being paid at Cedar Rapids and
other towns the size of Waterloo.
The strike affects six shops in the
city, but none of them employ many
men. the owners of the shops in every
instance being practical plumbers
themselves. One of the latter said but
ten men are taking part in the strike
Seventeen men are affected by tho
strike.

Waterloo Council Refuses Request TOT

Special to Times-Republican.
Waterloo, April 16.-The city council
at it's last session failed to see any good
reason why, as body, 1t should take
action providing that the Topographic
cal union label should be placed on all
printing ordered by the city. The
question has been before the council for
several weeks and 1t came up in petit
ton from the Central Labor union.
When 1t came to a final vote only
Councilmen Fry and Kramer voted for
1t. These who opposed the motion to
adopt took occasion to say they did not
do so because of any antipathy to Or
ganized labor but because they did not
see the need for discrimination, or for
the municipality taking such stand.
The question of selecting officers by
the council for the ensuing year was
settled without serious dispute by the
following choice:

Important Conclusions Arrived
at by Detectives in the
Highland Park Case.
The Accumulated Evidence and
Clues Carefully Examined
and Analysed Today.
Now Believed That the Criminals
Are White Men..Today's
Developments.
to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, April 16.-Mayor Bren-
ton, Chief Of Police Bracket, Detec-
tive Maitland and others held a con-
sultation this morning and went care
fully over the accumulated evidence
and clues in regard to the murder
in Highland Park, and arrived at sew
eral important conclusions. The first
Is that there were two men concerned
in the crime and that in running away
from the crime they did not remain
together all the time but got together
after separating in a. main Travelled
road which leads from Highland Park
to East Des Moines.
They further reached the conclusion
that the criminals turned westward In
this main road and went directly to-
ward the college, less than quarter
of a mile away, which is also a thick
ly populated district. instead of turn
ing to the east where hiding would
have been easy. From this 1T is In
ferretl that the murderers were not
negroes and certainly that they did
not live at the coal mines northeast
of Highland Park. for if they had lived
in that direction they would certainly
have gone across the fields towards
their homes. The course taken by the
criminals indicates that they knew the
ground very well and were no strang-
ers to the fields and swamps In that
part of the country. The officials are
not prepared to say certainly that they
believe the criminals came from High
land Park In the vicinity of the college
but they do fully exonerate the colony
of colored miners on which suspicion
has been fastened.
The, police are reported to have taken
from the clothing of the murdered girl
button which is plainly imprinted the
thumb mark of a man in blood. This
clue is being preserved for future use.
Investigation is now being made as
to the whereabouts of all the young
men of Highland Park, and in this the
college people are giving assistance.
The funeral of the two children took
place this afternoon at the church
where they attended on the fatal Sum
