they could get the city to accept their
proposal and provided that after their ex-
pert had made an investigation the issue
was decided by him to be legal.
The members OF the city council present
at the conference were. however, not pre-
pared to entertain the proposal at this time
in view OF the fact that a suit to test the
legality of the bond issue had just been
brought and is expected to be tried in the
district court at the January term. Messrs.
Sutherlin and Thayer stated that the suit
would be no hindrance to their purchasing
the bonds, provided their expert passed
favorably on the question OF their valid
ity.
After a protracted conference II was
practically agreed that Messrs. Sutherlin
and Thayer should submit a proposal for
the purchase of the bonds at the regular

The Stomach Does
Not Cause Dyspepsia
Neither VIII 1t Cure 1t Because the
Lack OF Gastric Juices
Prohibit Relief.

The stomach Is a strong, powerful or
ran, which is composed of muscles of
great strength. II is filled during diges-
lion with gastric juices which, when the
stomach. extending and COMPRISING the
food. dissolve It and separate the nour-
ishment from the waste matter. If. how
svsr. these gastric juices are lacking. the
stomach is not capable OF digesting it's
TODD because II has not the tools with
which to work successfully.
The gastric juices when in a perfect
state do away with all foul doors, fer
mentation and decay, reduce the food to
: disintegrated mass and the stomach
hen presses IL into the intestines where
another form OF digestion takes place.
Then the intestines take from this mass
OF food all that is nourishing and give II
to the blood. The waste matter It throws
from the system.
II instead of nourishment the intestines
receive Impure deposits combined with a
poisonous and imperfect gastric juice. 1t
can be readily seen that they must turn
such imperfect nourishment into the blood
The blood then being unable to give eRcl
part OF the body that which II requires. be-
comes Impoverished and disease is spread
broadcast.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets c~orrects
such a condition at once. III the gastric
juices are lacking and imperfect these
tablets do their work just the same. They
build up the elements in the juice which
are lacking and remove those elements
which cause disturbance.
Meat, grains. fluids, vegetables and
delicacies, in fact each portion of a
large meal have been placed in a glass
vial and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
diEested them TO a perfect fluid Just as
a healthy stomach would do.
A large complex. hearty meal holds no
terrors for a dyspepetie il stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are used. Abnormal eat
ing, late dinners, rich foods cause i'll eff
fects to the stomach. but when Stuarts

SabS
GRINNELL. Ia, Dec. 23.-(Special)-On
the morning of the fourth of January, 1906.
near Brooklyn, was discovered one of the
most brutal murders that has stirred this
part Of Iowa for many a year. An old man
named Thomas w. Read, who was known
to live by himself upon a farm near
Brooklyn and not far from the homes of
some of his children, was found dead that
morning with all the circumstantial evil
dence pointing to robbery as the motive
Of the crime. The old man had made a
brave fight for his life, but his assailant
had been too strong for him and had beaten
him horribly and left him dead. Detectives
were put to work and every effort was
made to discover the murderer and nave
him brought to Justice, but, while suspicion
was strong, no sufficiently strong evidence
could be produced to warrant any arrests
Recently some parties have been indicted
by the grand Jury and on trial have been
convicted and sentenced on various
charges, one OF which was breaking and
entering a box car at Brooklyn. In con-
nection with these cases evidence seems to
haze been obtained that may lead to the
conviction OF the murderer of Mr.. Read,
and vn Saturday afternoon last County
Attorney II. +. Boyd filed information and
secured the arrest of one Jesse Finley, who
is said to lead a wandering life and to
nave been away from Brooklyn most of
the time since the murder mentioned above
was committed. The officers of the law
have been persistently watching this case
and piecing together scraps and larger
pieces Of evidence until they are quite sure
they now have the perpetrator of the
crime. When arrested Finley waived exam
nation and was committed to jail to wait
for the action of the grand jury at the next
tern. of the district court.
