surance.

Special to Times Republican.
Ottumwa, April 2.-Following the
election Of the liberal ticket in Ottum-
wa, and taking 1T for granted that the
officers Of the law We're asleep on their
jobs, burglars raided the Sargent drug
store and were impolite enough to leave
a laconic note expressing regret that
they did not find more loot.
Eve are experts, and sorry that there
was no more" was what the note said.
The miscreants entered thru the front
door, having mastered the heavy Yale
lock which bars the opening, and with
very little trouble made away with $50
worth of 10 and scent cigars in boxes,
s25 from the front cash register, $40
from the stamp drawer. and $15 from
the theater ticket register in the pre-
scription department.
The message was written with a
heavy piece of crayon used for mark
ing china, which Mr.. Sargent had in
his personal desk. After tearing off
the piece of parchment, the robbers adj
vanced to the private office of Mr.. Sar-
gent and there deposited the note that
it might be seen by him in the morn
ing. Mr.. Sargent's loss was fully COW
cred by a $4,000 burglary insurance
certificate which he holds.

Expedition to Layson Island, Under
S. U. ]. Auspices, Encouraged.
Special to Times-Republican.
Iowa City, April 2.-The last restric-
ton to the proposed scientific expedi-
ton to the Laysan Island in the Pa
cific ocean, under the auspices of the
state university, has been removed.
One of the last official acts of Ex-
President Roosevelt was to declare
Laysan Island and other outlying pos
sessions in the Pacific, to he national
reserves, and forbid THE killing of any
birds in the marvellous rookeries which
are to be found there.
Prof c. c. Nutting has just re-
ceived a letter from T.. S. Palmer, in
charge of game preservation, in which
he writes: The proposed Laysan Island
exhibit in your museum, will undoubt-
edly prove a great attraction and a
valuable means of interesting the
public in bird reservations. I do not
now see any objection to your pro-
posed expedition. In fact, I believe it
would be a distinct advantage to have
a thorough exploration of the island
An interesting fact in connection
with the new law which makes the
island q national reserve, is that the
measure was proposed by Professor
Nutting himself. after his expedition
to the Pacific some years ago. The
funds necessary to insure the expedi-
ton have practically been raised.

Praises DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.

II you are sick do not be discouraged.

q long time, when began to have terri
BILE pains in my back. They were so
severe that / couldn't bend over nor
turn in bed and had tobe pulled up by
my hands, when lying down. NY
stomach trouble had often compelled
me to go to bed for short time, but
when these pains in my back came on, /
had to give up and stay in bed. Even
then / got but little rest or relief.
ssThe doctors said was suffering
from lumbago complicated with chronic
stomach trouble. After I had been in
bed for some time and was in despair of
getting well, as the doctors were not
helping me, my son, who had heard of
DIR. Williams Pink Pills while in the
army in the Philippine Islands, brought
me box of the pills. It was about a
week before felt they were helping me
and must have taken them for over a
month. I then felt cured and my
stomach and back haven't troubled me
since. I gained in weight and have been
healthier than at any time since was a
young girl. Railways keep the pills on
hand and cannot praise them enough"

mended even if ordinary remedies have
