EMMA RlPKE INDICTED.
Council Bluffs Girl to Be Tried Soon
For Murder.

Council Bluffs, Nov. 20.-Emma Rip
Ike, the young woman held for the kill
ing of Frank Keith, has been indicted
for first degree murder by the grand
Jury Of this district and will have
speedy trial. The crime with which she
is charged took place October 10 and
it is likely that she will go to the pen
sooner than is usual in murder cases.
Frank Keith is supposed to have been
slain by her in a rooming house on
West Broadway.
When informed of the action of ltha
grand jury Miss Ripke did not appear
to be the slightest disturbed. Il have
clear conscience" she said, "and
am glad the grand jury did what it has
as will now be able to prove my in
nocence to the world"
The grand jury is said to have re-
turned nineteen indictments, but only
eight were made public Saturday, as
the defendants named in the others
were not under arrest when the indict-
ments were returned.

"These passes have been issued for
years." said Mr. Fort "and the rapid
colonization of the west is due to
these land agents more than to all
other causes together. The railroads
furnished the land agents free TRANS

these men will probably go out OF
business. The west will be the suf-

NEeREss' KISSES COME HIGH.
Des Moines Man Relieved of His Purse
in Dark Alley.

Des Moines, Nov. 20.-To kiss pref
ty negress in dark areaway is easily
worth Fl cents, according to the reck-
oning of j. w. Crocker. an eX-school
teacher, resiging at 500 Seventh street,
but he believes that s37 for the same
privilege is an eXhorbitant price.
Crocker told Judge Mathis in police
court yesterday afternoon that when
he accepted Emma Davis invitation, a
few days ago. to kiss her, she asked
the nominal fee. and then, all un-
known to himself, extracted a roll of
bills from his inside vest pocket.
Croker could not substantiate his
story and the girl was released.
Crocker admitted that he was an
amorous young man. saying that he
simply couldn't help it. Il happened
to be passing the Marquardt building

judge, when this girl accosted me.
She was we'll dressed, and you can see
for yourself how pretty she is. Well,

love me little, dear. I'll let you kiss
me for q quarter l tried to resist her
for while, but she luffed up to me-
and l said. I haven't a quarter in
change, but I'll give you two dimes
and a penny She agreed and pulled
me into the cover of the areaway. and
threw her arms around my neck and
kissed me- She told me that she really
ought to have 40 cents, but l thought
that 81 was enough. Wouldn't you
have thought so, too?

gone by, and now fair visitors who

and not one of them, in spite Of the pre-

err the fair thumbs are up or down.
This afternoon they were down, and,
though the clear resonant voice Of the
young senator from Mississippi rang
through the chamber in an eloquent
protest against the passage of bill he
thought wrong, there was grimness
about the silence that showed the gal

a popular one. especially with Wash

Catarrh Of the Stomach
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and Eff
fectual Cure for 1t.
COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.

Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to in
durable The usual symptoms are a
full or bloating sensation after eating,
accompanied sometimes with sour or
watery risings, a formation OF gases,
causing pressureI on the heart and
lungs and difficult breathing, head
aches, tickle appetite, nervousness ana
q general played out languid feeling.
There is often foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, and if the inter-
Tor of the stomach could be seen 1t
would show q Shiny, inflamed condi-
ton.
The cure for this common and obst1-
nate trouble is found in treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces of the stomach TO
secure a prompt and healthy digestion
is the one necessary thing to do, ana
when normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition will have disap-
peared.
According to DR.. Harlanson, the SAT-
est and best treatment is to use after
each meal tablet, composed of Dias-
tase, Aseptic Pepsin, little NuX,
Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tab
lets can noy be foundat all drug stores
under the name of St1art's Dyspepsia
Tablets, and not being a patent nledi-
cine, can be used with perfect safety
and assurance that healthy appetite
and thorough digestion will follow
their. regular use after meals.
Mr.. r. S. Workman, Chicago, ILL.,,
writes: "Catarrh is q local condition
resulting from neglected cold in the
head, whereby the lining membrane OF
the nose becomes inflamed and the
poisonous discharges therefrom pass
ing backward into the throat reaches
the stomach, thus producing catarrh Of
the stomach. Medical authorities pre-
scribed for me for three years for ca
tarrh of stomach without cure, but to-
day am the happiest of men after
using only one box Of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. / cannot find appro-
pirate words to express my good feel
ing. i have found flesh, appetite and
sound rest from their use"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as well as the SIM
plest and most convenient remedy for
any form of Indigestion, catarrh OF
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heartburn and bloatinss after meals.

three months before. His own eyes
grew colder and grimmer under the an
tagonlsm, and he was about to lean
across to speak with colleague in the
next seat when his lowering gaze en-
countered a pair Of eyes in the private
gallery directly in front, and for the
first time slight color crept into his
face. The girl was half standing and
was very beautiful, but he scarcely no
ticed that. 1t was her eyes he saw,
eyes looking straight into his and full
of wondering, almost piteous incred0s
lity. Even while talking with the neigh
Dor his gaze returned to her, almost
against his will. She was still stand
ing, still looking, a tragedy in her pose
and eyes, and now slight shiver went
through his frame, first feeling Of
dissatisfaction with himself.
AS they left the chamber a good
many of the senators spoke to him,
some congratulatfng him on his speech.
In the lobby an old senator rested his
hand upon his shoulder for moment.
''That was fine speech Of yours, my
boy" he said kindly, "but it was mis-
directed. am sorry you did not know
as much about the case as the rest Of
U.S. Ethically and in limited degree
you were right, but in all else wrong.
We ought to have made stronger eff
fort for the bill, clearer argument,
but we were all so sure Of its passage
that we neglected even ordinary pre-
cautions. Most Of us were keenly dis
appointed, but it is too late now. How
ever, you made good speech, very
good speech, Mr.. Duncan, and you are
still young"
Allan Duncan left the elevator at the
basement floor and went out at the
back entrance. A few senators and
number Of visitors were already ahead
of him, waiting for the green car.
which was just coming in sight.
A white haired man was standing
near the line with girl beside him.
AS the car swung toward them the old
mans cane slipped on the edge of the
asphalt, and he lurched forward and
would have fallen directly in front of
the car only that at the same moment
Duncan, who was several yards away,
made quick spring. forcing the old
man back to safe foothold with his
left arm and saving himself from the
threatened fate by throwing his right
foot upon the forward end of the car
rs 1t came to stop beside them. It
was daring act, made with quick eyes
and. dependable muscles, but none
knew better than Duncan himself how
different the ending might have been.
The old man and the girl, however,
seemed to realize something Of it, for
their faces were white as they essayed
to thank him. Duncan listened pro-
testingly. The old man he did not even
hear, for he saw recognition In the
girls face, a recognition in which the
Indignation was forced back by her
present gratitude. He mumbled some
words of depreciation as he assisted the
agitated old man into the car and then
hurriedly excused himself and sought
seat at the far end. He did not care
for q conversation with these two just
now.

EMANCIPATION
ANNIVERSARY
Celebration in st. Petersburg
Passes Off Without
BlOOdShed.
Newspapers Attribute Miserable Con.
dition Of Peasants to the Incor.
pIeteness Of Emancipation and
Ask II They Are to Be Con.
demned to Misery.

St. Petersburg.-The expectation In
some quarters that the anniversary of
the emancipation of the serfs on Sun
day would be commemorated by an
agrarian ukase was not fulfilled All
the newspapers, however seized the
occasion to discuss the peasant ques.
ton in view of the general anticipa-
ton of extensive agrarian troubles in
the spring, unanimously agreeing
that only legal satisfaction of the lana
hunger of the Mujicks will prevent an
awful ,Iacquerie. The conservative
journals draw striking parallel Of
riots which followed the proclamation
Of civic liberty and the events that
succeeded Emperor Alexander's de-
cree of personal freedom for the pur.
pose of proving that the present polit.
ical ferment Is only incident to the
adjustment of the population to new
regime. Then, as now, they say, the
emperor's act was misunders cd.
The peasants believed the lano
with which they were endowed was a
free gift, and when they were unde-
ceived jubilation over their freedom
turned to anger. and was followed by
uprisings and riots throughout the en-
pire which provoked the sternest re.
preston.
On the contrary the radical journals
like the new situation and paint a
sorrowful picture Of the unfortunate
peasant OF the last forty years bound
to the soil burdened by debt not yet
discharged and subject to the knout.
They attribute the miserable condi-
ton OF the peasants to the incomplete
ness Of emancipation and ask II the
Russian people are now condemned ia
another such period of misery and
struggle because the grant of civic
liberty Is insufficient.
