$4,000 BACK TAXES
Tax Ferret Causes Moneysd Men and
Holders Of Mortgages to Dissorse-
Ono State Center Firm Gives Up
$4,000 Of Unpaid Taxes.

Fifteen thousand dollars represents
the amount of back taxes that
moneyed men, holders OF mortgages,
and other personal property of the
county, have disgorged because OF the
investigation of ex-Judge Ben Mccoy,
the tax ferret. About half OF this
amount Mr. Mccoy has collected, and
the other half is represented by taxes
paid in by persons who had a strong
suspicion thai the ferret was hot on
their trial.
One firm in the county and an es-
tate from the same part of the county.
turned in $4,000 in taxes that should
have been paid in the five years past.
In addition, from the same source, $780,
600 worth of taxable personal property
was turned in for taxation. Mr.. Nc
Coy will return to the city to close a
few investigations he has scheduled
for next Monday, then his active work
will cease until in the summer.
Because of the extraordinary
amount of work the ferret causes the
county treasurers office employees
who at this time of year are sorely
pressed for time, Mr.. McCoy's contract
with the county provides that he shall
desist during the months OF March
and April.
County Treasurer J. p. Cooper says
the tax ferret's work has stimulated
the paying Of taxes which he accounts
for causing the unusual rush during
the present month, the period for pay

TALKS OF THE TEAM
Nothing But Clean, Sober Ball Players

kennedy-Part Of Games for Prac-
tice Season Arranged.

While Manager A. S. Kennedy was
in the city Thursday closing arrange
ments for the season with the local
association, he talked OF his plans for
the coming year. The promise Ken
nedy makes for clean base ball is a
strong one, but he makes it emphatic
ally, and his record of two years at
Ottumwa Is evidence that he can make
good" on his promises
Kennedy proposes that none but
clean. sober players shall be on his
team. He says he will not have any
other kind, no matter how good they
are. Fines will not be imposed on
players getting drunk, but instead they
will be discharged. Kennedy says 1t
is business proposition with him, and
the players who drink reflect on the
team, hurt the game. and the attend
ance.
The manager has already arranged
for a part Of the practice games to be
played before the opening OF the sched-
uled season. The players will report
here about April H. The games already
scheduled are with Cedar Rapids here

where they had lived many years. For
the, past few weeks the captain has
been belfast, and his death can scarce
ly be said to have resulted from any
thing more than q general breaking
down. due to his impaired physical
condition, the direct result Of his army
service. He has really rot known a
day OF perfect health since the mem
orable battle OF Gettysburg, when he
was wounded, and when his BIO dy, man
gled and bleeding, was forced, into an
ill-shapen mass, and left him forever
afterward a physical wreck.
War Record to be Proud Of.
There is probably no c.nan in Iowa
who had a better or more enviable
war record than Captain Nels on Ames,
vet this modest man scarcely ever re-
ferred to it, and in his History of Bat
terry G, First New York Light Art1l-
lery," published in 1900, the personal
pronoun is seldom used, and the fore
word, announcing his promotion, made
by Department Commander Joseph W.
kay. Of the New York d. A.. R., was
published only on the inslsteace OF the

Saved tho Day at Gettysburg.
A true history of the hiatt 9 OF Get
tysburg could not be written without
mentioning the bravery Of Nielsen
Ames. who captained the famous bat
terry Of New York artillery that held
"Peach Orchard Captain 4Anles' bat
terry of six guns was, to be sure, only
one very small part of the great union
force on July 2, 1863, but it did its part
and did it well. 1t did all that belching
steel in human hands could do, and it
is mol wonder that the state sof New
York by an act Of its legislature, APP
propriated a sum to build a monument
to Battery G, which now stands on the
field of Gettysburg, at "l'each Orchard"
on the exact spot where Captain
Ames' battery poured solid shot into
the rebel forces.
Gives Order for Solid Shot.
Captain Ames' battery held a position
Of advantage. This position was much
desired by General Hood, who, under
General Longstreet, was commanding
a division of 10000 merl. a rebel bat
tery was pouring grape and canister
on every hand, and the leaden missiles
were falling like rain. One; of the ser
geants at the guns asked ARIES if he had
not better give them grape. The order
came back: GIVE them solid shot,
nothing but solid shot" Tie order was
obeyed. and three of the four rebel guns
were soon disabled. The fourth was
silenced and taken from the field in or
der to save it. "Peanh Orchard"
point of vantage, was saved, and Bat
terry G established place in history
for all time.
Ames Badly Wounded.
It was without doubt that at Gettys-
burg Nelson Ames received the wounds
that caused his death While in COM
mand of his battery, and after the day
was won a shell, burst near to the cap
tain. Fragments struck his head, caus-
ing bad wound. ana the conclusion,

THE TIME, THE PLACE, THE GIRL
chicaso's Greatest Success Coming to
the Odeon Tomorrow EVENING.

chicago's Greatest Success Coming to
the odeon Tomorrow Evening.
"The Time the Place and the Girl"
a comedy with music, will be presented
at the Odeon tomorrow evening by the
sAskin- Singer Company, with an ex-
cellent company, including among other
players of reputation Arthur DEACON.
Miss Ida Emerson, Miss Lucia Moore
and Miss Violet McMillen. This is
the musical play which has run for six
months in Chicago and is still the par
ticular favorite of the theater-goers of
that town which had until now a mon
,opoly on its attractions ever since it
was produced. 1t was written by Will
r. Hough and Frank r. Adams, with
the musical assistance Of Joseph
Howard, the long distance song hi
champion of the world.
The plot is to the effect that Happy
Johnny Hicks, a square young gambler,
has been spending night in Boston
with his pals, Laurie Farnham and
Tom, Cunningham, two rich mems
sons. In fight with some card
sharks Cunningham hits man over the
head with a wine bottle: and fearing
the consequences the trio make their
escape before the police arrive. Hoping
to find a hiding place, and also to take
a needed rest, they find their way to
a sanitarium in the Virginia moun-
tains. Cunningham meets his sweet
heart there, and Hicks falls in love
with the pretty head nurse, Molly
Kelly who proves to be the sister Of
the man injured by Cunningham in the
escapade in Boston.
This interesting situation Is enhanced
by the fact that the sanitarium is
placed under quarantine, and as the
servants are all absent, The guests
have to serve themselves. In the
course of the play Hicks shoulders
Cunningham's guilt, and thus puts
himself sin wrong" as he expresses 1T,
with the nurse.
The singing and dancing numbers
manifest the genius Of New Wayburn
for such things, and there is not
chorus feature in the show that Is mot
new and original, The company is
large and the production is an unus-
ually artistic one.

was Captain Ames' wish that the chap

were numbered. The G. A. r. of Frank

SIMPLY SWALLOW
Many Eat as Tho They We're Blind and
Their Tongues Cut Out.

Dyspepsia is built on contidence-too
much confidence in the ability of your
stomach ITO digest anything and every
thing you put into 1t.
In this age we have developed speed
In every line of action, and we have
also developed speed in mastication.
a We don't take time to eat right, and
etonletifnes we do not eat the right kind
t,f food. Sometimes we carry our bus
sSness to our meals and as a result eat
mechanically. We eat as tho we were
blind and our tongues cut out. We
q simply swallow.
The result is that the food we eat is
half chewed, and lies like lump of
lead on the stomach.
You may deny to yourself that you
abuse your stomach. but when you get
q bloaty feeling you can't deny you've
got Il.
When you get brash, quotations,
burning sensations, bloating, aversion
d to food, loss of appetite, belching and
other kindred ailments, there is not
much use asking yourself, for the time
being, >why you. suffer. The fact is,
you've got these ailments, and the
question of the hour is how to get rid
of them at once, so that at your next
meal you may be able to sit down and
look at your meal straight in the face
q keen appetite and a smile, and
enjoy thoroughly everything you eat.
Just one of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
lets will digest an ordinary meal with
{ out the, help of the stomach. One In
gredient OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest 5000 grains of food. The
strongest stomach couldn't do the work
any better than one of these wonderful
little Tablets can do it.
Zach tablet contains the strongest
