TACT that it has no authority to sub

look upon the proposed investigation

Weak and unhealthy kidneys are re-

than any other disease, and if permitted
to continue much suffering with fatal re-
suits are sure to follow. Kidney trouble
irritates the nerves, makes you dizzy, rest
less, sleepless and irritable; makes you
pass water often during the day and
Obliges you to get UP many times during

ALTON, Ia, April 14.-(Special.)-The
community around here is much stirred up
over an attempt to burn the old frame
schoolhouse in the south part of town. About
IL o'clock at night the night watch noticed
smoke coming from the northwest corner
of the building and turned in an alarm.
When the fire was extinguished it was found
that the room had been saturated with coal
oil. The damage to the building will be
small as the fire was discovered in time to
save the building. The object of the party
who set 1t afre cannot be imagined, as
the old building was to have been torn
down at the end of the present school year
to make room for a more modern brick
structure recently voted by the people Of
the district.

TALK OF PROFESSIONAL BALL
Buck Keith Makes a Proposition to
III Commercial Club which
Looks Good.

Buck" Keith, the base ball impressario
of Omaha, was in Council Bluffs yesterday
comforting with the member Of the execu-
tive committee of the Commercial club
relative to placing a professional team in
this city this season. At a recent meeting
in Sioux City II was proposed to reorganize
the Iowa-south Dakota league with Council
Bluffs, Sioux City, Sioux Falls and Lemars,
the only towns in 1t.
H. w. Binder, the base ball enthusiast OF
the executive committee, was detailed by
the other members to take the matter up
with the, motor company with a view to as
certaining IL the ball park at Lake Manawa
could be secured. Mr.. Binder learned, how
ever, that the Manawa ball park has been
leased for this season by the Eagles, the
team organized and managed by Harry X,
Smith, and that 1t was very unlikely that
any arrangements could be made for pro-
fessional base bail at the lake this summer.
1t has been suggested that grounds could
be secured In the western part OF the city
near the street car line, but to place them
in proper condition would involve an ex-
pense from 81 900 to $500, and 1t is not
certain that this money would be subscribed
by the business men OF the city. A profess
sional ball team, It is conceded. would do
much toward advertising Council Bluffs,
and Mr.. Binde stated last evening that
something might be done toward accepting
Keith's proposition II the committee found
that the proper financial support would be
forthcoming.
Keith stated to the committee that II his
proposition is accepted he would move to
Council Bluffs and make his home here and
would follow up the base ball season win
an endeayor to schedule some big foot ball
games here for the fall.

Peter Hentgen. a young man, while on
his way TO his boarding place on Fourth
street last night about 10 O'Clock from
woodward's candy factory. where he is en-
ployed. was held up and robbed by two
men near the Rock Island Ice houses on
Third street. between Seventeenth and
Eighteenth avenues
The place where the holdup was COM
mitted Is dark and lonesome. The men,
who were standing under a tree, stopped
young Hentgen as he was about to pass and
told him IL he had any money about him
to be quick and hand 1t out. He had 1886
in his pocket, which he handed over to the
robbers. They. then told him to keep on
his way and not look back. As soon as he
reached home young Hentgen notified the
police. He was unable to give any de-
scription Of the holdup men, beyond that
one was tall and the other short. The
place where he was held up was too darn
for him to distinguish their features.
The police believe that they are the same
two men who held up and robbed Ted
Linehan Sunday night In the alley between
