Boone, Dec. 29.-Last evening Con-
stable +. o. Lockard brought to Boone
from Des Moines A. l.. Reeder wanted
here on serious charge, that of
forgery, and raising invoices. Reeder
is the representative for the American
Hide and Leather Company In this
state, Nebraska, and part of Illinois,
he looking over hides and purchasing
them for the western office in Chi
cago. In making out his weights he
would make an erasure and substitute
different figures and by this method
it is claimed by the company during
the Fast two years he has received
at least $1,000 Of their money.
The western manager of the COM
pany, Mr.. Albert Bjorklund. and his
attorney, Walter Jacobs, of Chicago
arrived on No. 3 yesterday morning
and soon had the warrant issued. Mr..
Bjorklund stated that Reeder would
make a purchase and in the invoice
change the figures. The company
would remit and the agent would pay
the man or firm who had sold the
hides. He was thus able to realize
about $1,000 in two years. The COM
pany allowed for a shrinkage of two
per cent and for a while things looked
suspicious. However, this matter
would have dropped had not Reedei
made mistake in one Of his reports
which was soon traced down and his
guilt established. The hides purchased
in this city were from the Mcneil Hide
Company.
Lives in Omaha.
Ree6er, who lives in Omaha, where
he has wife and five children drew
a salary Of $1,000 per year. He was
considered one of the best men on the
road and during the past year he did
business for the company which
amounted to over 100000.

Special to Times-Republjcan
Clinton, Dec. 29.-The distinction of
having the only reading rooms for en-
picyes on the Chicago & Northwestern

through the efforts of General Manager
w. A. Gardner Of the Northwestern
that the reading rooms We're estab-
lishel in 1897, and to show his interest
in the organization, which holds to-
gether the local employees of the road,
Mr. Gardner sent out six elegant easy
Chains this week for the rooms, and
car load of COAL as sort of Christ
mas present to the railroad boys.
General Manager Gardner of the
Northwestern, planned the rooms in
Clinton, as sort of resort for the
boys to keep them out of the saloons.
1t was a success from the very first.
and the rooms are almost always
crowded with young men. They are
open day and night. Eight rooms are
maintained in the suite on South
Fourth street, in which billiard pool
and card tables are arranged; a fine
piano has been installed, and there are
bath rooms and many conveniences
and accommodations.

rlADE FRon NATIVE ROOTS.
SAFE AND RELIABLE.

That the roots Of many native plants.
growing wild in our American forests,
possess remarkable properties for the cure
of human maladies is well proven. Even
the untutored Indian had learned the
curative value of some of these and
taught the early settlers their uses. The
Indian never liked work so he wanted his
squaw to get well as soon as possible that
she might do the work and let him hunt.
Therefore, he dug vpapoose root for her,
for that was their great remedy for re-
male weaknesses. pr. Pierce uses the
eFavorite Prescription" skillfully com
bined with other agents that make 1t
more effective than any other medicine in
curing all the various weaknesses ana

Gerber c1,is for Reform.
For the fl. st time In the history Of
the Sta,, Teachers Association the
sns...ct of proper sanitary equipment
or rural schools was discussed yester-
day, being presented by Superinten-
dent Gerber of Hamilton county, In an
address before the county superin-
tendents' section.
That the present arrangements con-
stitute am abominatlon in nine-tenths
of the rural districts seems to be con-
ceded by educators; but how to remedy
conditions Is the subject under discus
sion. superintendent Gerber advocates
the establishment of equipment identi-
cal with that enjoyed in the city
schools.
His language yesterday was forcible
In the extreme, as became the gravity
of the subject. He declared that In the
abominable conditions which are now
permitted to exist in order to save few
dollars, young boys and young girls i'm
culcate their first lessons In vice which
all churches and schools and reforma-
tories and prisons and Juvenile courts
in the world can never eradicate and
suffer harm which all OF the other
agencies mentioned can never equal In
good.
Eastern Educators Speak.
The sessions of the general associa-
ton were consumed yesterday by for
NAL addresses by educators from the
east. At the morning session Miss
Sarah Louise Arnold, dean Of Simmons
college in Boston. addressed the teach
ers on the subject Of 1.-THE Essentials
of Liberal Education" and State SUI
perintendent w. w. Stetson of Angus

DR.. Stetson, in the course Of his adj
dress. stopped to say that in all his
travels he had never seen so perfectly
arranged, equipped and decorated a
high school building as that in West
Des Mofnes which he inspected with
pleasure. He also advocated the idea
that no child should be compelled to
go to school before it Is eight years Of
age. He protested against so-called
child study.

the meet has gone to the state univer-
sity town This year there is big
fight on over the location. The COM
mittee of high school men which will
decide the location are George w.
Maxwell, Of Sioux City; Frank Smart,
of Dubuque, and A. V. Storms, Of Cher
okee. None OF the men are alumni of
any Of the Iowa colleges or universt-
ties. A number of the denominational
schools this year are claiming that the
moral surroundings at the state un-
iversity are very bad and that the high
school boys going to Iowa. City are
taken to the saloons and gambling dens
and all that sort of thing. For this
reason they declare their intention Of
keeping 1t away from the State Uni
versity another year. .Grinnell enter
seen that Grinnell did not develop
strength and so Drake University en-
tered the race. The fight Is now on
between Drake and the State Univer-
sity. Drake has one of the members
Of the committee with her on the
proposition and 1t remains to be seen
whether or not she can get another
member Of the committee and win.
The fight is just now fast and some
what furious. Drake entered the race
yesterday afternoon late when 1t de-
veloped that Grinnell could not win
out. The state university seeks TO
vindicate her moral honor and also
win the meet getting the high school
boys of the state there to come in con-
tact with the college men in order to
get more students. Drake and the
UNCONVENTIONAL schools seek to get the
meet away from her to save the hon.
or Of the high school boys and also
to get them in contact with the de-
nominational schools to make more
students.
The last oil portrait to be added to
the valuable collection of the histori-
cal building Is that of the late Matt
Parrott, Of Waterloo. Curator Charles
Aldrich is very proud of the latest ac-
QUESTION. He and Mr.. Parrott were
pioneers in the early affairs Of the
state and ever since the death of Mr..
Parrott Mr. Aldrich has been seeking
to induce his children to give the his
torical building a portrait of him to
hang in the gallery. The portrait that
has just been presented is made by
Of the late Mr.. PARROT. Miss PARROT
is an artist of ability and the paint
ing is counted one of the best in the
gallery. 1t is lifeslze likeness of the
noted man and is presented by Miss
PARROT and her father, w. f. Parrott.

block. the east half Of which they will
occupy in the future.
The postoffice inspector was here
again this week, and received bids for
the postoffice for the ensuing year per-
iod. Kerr, and the First National bank
both submitted bids. From current
rumors on the streets, it would APP
pear that much greater requirements
were made of Kerr than if the post
office remains in It's present loca tion.
The people of this community are di-
vided as to the advisability of any
change of locatio Of the postoffice, but
everybody wants to see fair play and
see one location given as fair chance
as another.
