Sale ON WAR RECALLED
Esthervlle Man Sues Anti-sa'oon
People for Expenses as a Detective
- Was Hired to Secure Evidence.

Special to Times Republican
Estherville, Oct. 25.-The crusade
against the violators of the prohibitory
law last summer, when bloody riot
on the streets was narrowly averted,
las been recalled by an action brought
in the district court by Charles Bard
against C. c. Slower, r. f. Ridley, ].
c. Irwin, w. A. Lesher, l.. l.. Bingham
and George Slower, in which he asks
Judgment in the sum Of 1868. In his
petition Mr. Bard alleges that he made
PENDANTS, who are members of two sep
arate organizations, the Anti-salOon
league and the Emmett County Stock
Company, to procure evidence against
persons who were violating the pro-
hibitory and other laws. That for such
services he was to receive $3.50 per
day together with 81 a day for board
and that he was to be reimbursed for
all necessary expenses. He states that
the work done, together with the nee
essary expenses incurred, amounted to
$410.10, and that OF this amount there
still remains unpaid the sum of 1853.
The petition is of somewhat sem
sational nature, inasmuch as he sets
out an itemized statement Of the ex-
penses incurred together with an
itemized statement of money received,
and from whom received. One item of
the expenses is for S4 for beer. secur-
ed at notorious resort. He names
several of the drug stores as places
where he secured whisky and names
places where he obtained beer where
the general public did not know 1t was
sold. 1t ia probable that the case will
come on for trial at the coming term
Of the district court. and that 1T will
be watched with a great deal Of inter-
est.
Cause Of lookjaw.
Locktaw or tetanus, Is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plentiful
Nv in street dirt. It is inactive SO long
as exposed to the air, but when carried
beneath the skin as in the wounds
caused by percussion caps or by rusty
nails, and when the air Is excluded the
germ is reused to activity and produces
the most virulent poison known. These
germs may be destroyed and all danger
of lockjaw avoided by applying Cham
berlains Pain Balm freely as
the injury is received. Pain Balm is
an antiseptic and causes cuts, bruises
and like injuries to heal without mat
uration and in one-third the time re-
ruired by the usual treatment. It is
for sale by all druggists.

Thinks Al Are Too Wei PAID.

Comptroller Tracewell of the trea ury
is regarded rs a most extraordinary
person. Mr. Tracewell's salary is $5,-

Worse than entertaining such a hetey.
odox opinion, however, is the fact that
he has not hesitated to give express
sion thereto. During the recent ses
sion of congress he was giving sub
committee some information regard
ing his Office. The chairman compli-
mented him by saying: "You are the
first man government officer who has
appeared before us who did not ask
for an increase of salary" Traceweli
replied bluntly: I'm getting a blank

1t is apparently a safe aud conserva-

pared with the year of lowest prices

though it seemed more like an hour

the little animals were blinded with
