The wonderful power of Hoods Sarsaparilla

Quick recovery from declines in the

of a shooting fracas in which he was
one of the principals. Ira De Groote, a
Humboldt county lad of 20 years, was
brought to the city from Pioneer with
a bullet wound in his left arm and an

critical condition.
According to the story in circulation
De Groote together with a number of
other young men visited Fred Forests
pool hall Thursday night where they
created disturbance. An effort was
made to bring the disorder to an end
and trouble followed. the young men
leaving only after they had partially
wrecked the place
According to the story De Groote
was one of the ring leaders and next
morning met Forest on the street.
They had words and it is not known

Pharmacy Trouble Of Long Standing,

Methods of Charging Per Diem and

Special to Times-R Republican.
Des Moines, March 27-The sudden
breaking out of the mania for probing
and investigating was not wholly I'M
expected in the senate on Friday. There
had been a hint of it the day before
when the senator from Mills gave a
| few labs at the management of the
state fair. The senator from Cass had
started very early to talk loudly for
reform. but after the first outburst he
had quieted down. Yesterday both got
started again on "a bill for visiting
committee in advance of the meeting
| of the next legislature, Bruce trying to
get his general probing commission
tackled on to the bill. Gillilland wanted
| to know if it was broad enough to
cover the agricultural department, and
on being assured that it covered. every
/ thing he proceeded to LAUNCH into a
| humorous discussion of the agricult-
ural department. He accused the board
| of having. taken in $4,000 last year
and only expanding $4,000, and said he
| could not. find out what became of the
rest of the money. Bruce complained
because of lack of knowledge of the at
fairs of the state and said he had
chucked the reports all under his desk
and had not time to read them. In fact
Bruce has spent most of his time away
| from the legislature. But there was
/ disposition to permit the reform wave
\
4 other day was set for continuing the
| talk-fest.
Pharmacy Trouble Of Long Standing.
The controversy between Carroll and
Keltz over four days of per diem last
| June for which warrants were drawn
after the bills had been audited by the
| executive council has been laid on the
table, at least for the time being, Tor
the governor has referred it to the at
torney general for action such as ne
may take. 1t appears that all were anX-
ious to drop the quarrel. A former state
senator now here said in regard to
this:
1T is High time the matter was
dropped for the good of the state. We
know that the actions of the pharma-
CIV commissioners caused a great deal
of embarra ssment to Governor Cum
minis and the executive council, but so
long as the council was disposed to
permit matters to go on as they had
been going for years the governor could
not very we'll do anything. 1t is differ
ent now that we have governor to-
ward whose candidacy the members or
the commission were decidedly hostile.
The better way, however, would have
been in the case of this board as in
that of many others, to have called
the board In and quietly told them that
In the future the bills would be scaled
by the executive council. That would
have avoided any scandal and would
have accomplished results very much
more quickly than the course which
has been pursued. The pharmacy board
has not been a burden to the state and
1T is a mistake to advertise it as such"

WOMAN's ODD WILL
Takes Property from Husband by
Deciding it to Sister While on Her
Death Bed.

Sioux City, March 27.-Unknown to
her husband and his relatives, Mrs.
Malinda CARRIER of Otto, Ia, had trans
ferred her real estate and personal
property to Mrs. Sarah NJ. Watts, her
sister, while Samuel CARRIER, her llus-
band, mourns her death. The deed was
filed for record in THE recorders office
yesterday.
While CARRIER was making the nee
essary arrangements for the funeral a
friend of his wife was preparing to
file the deed TO her town property in
Otto transferring it to her sister, and
the bill of sale conveying all other
personal property to that relative.
The procedure is one of the most
unusual which has ever occurred in
the county recorders office, and the
bill of sale and deed is used to serve
the purpose of will. All that CARRIER
will receive from her estate will be
that allowed him by law. In the body
of the deed and the bill of sale this
clause is inserted:
"This bill of sale being executed by
me IN lieu OIL q letSl VIII etiIu lcSletillSiit,
it being my desire to give and be-
queath unto the said Sarah M. Watts
all of the property OF Which 1 may
die seized and possessed, subject only
to the distributive shares of Samuel
CARRIER as by statute made and pro-.
vided."
The wording of the deed is exactly
the same except that 1t states that the
deed is executed in lieu of the will. BY
it she conveys to her sister about six
acres of land in the town Of Otto and
for 81 and other considerations the bill
Of sale gives her sister the personal
property-the stock and household
furniture.
Arrangements were made three days
ago, before her death, for the filing OF
the deed which was drawn UP and
signed while she was on her death bed.
Her sister had taken care Of her dur
ing her illness and in consideration of
these services it is said she decided the
