ITS GOOD TO BRYAN
IN A BUSINESS WAY

When David said that "the law OF
the Lord is perfect converting the
soul" he uttered the most important
thought that can engage the atten
ton OF mortals. Paul realized the
same fact when he said. Il am not
ashamed Of the gospel OF christ, for

Life Is failure whore the claims OF
the gospel are spurned and the ind.

Council Bluffs
Roy Green Must
Face Atlantic
Robbery Charge
Caught Here by Detective Callaghan,
He Tries to Escape-Identified by
Atlantic Hotel People.

Roy Green Of Omaha. well known as a
professional and expert hotel thief, ar
rested scores Of times and once sent to
prison from Council Bluffs, came to town
yesterday afternoon. Detective Gala
CHAN happened to see him as he passed
the postoffce and invited him to stop
for a conference. Green denied his iden-
tity and his name and started away with
progressive speed. which developed into
a swift run when Callaghan ordered him
TO stop. Callaghan has had several los
ing foot races with Green in the past and
when the fugitive lodged into the alley
in the rear OF the Dodge Light Guards
armory Callaghan drew his revolver and
fired several shots IN tse vicinity Of his
feet. Green continued to run. leaping over
alley and lawn fences and was finally
caught while attempting to lift an out
side cellar door at the residence Of Mrs.
Amy Hammer for the purpose of hiding.
When taken to the station he was found
to be carrying a loaded revolver and he
was held on that charge and for the pur-
pose of investigation.
Press reports yesterday contained an &C
count Of the robbery of Landlord DAILY Of
the Pullman hotel at Atlantic, when a
sneak thief broke into his room, pried
open a desk drawer and stole 500 in
cash and a check for $50. The women Of
the hotel had seen a man providing about
the corridors OF the hotel and had ordered
him away. The description they gave
and the method of the thiefs operations
fitted Green so snugly that when Chief
of Police Froom called up Sheriff Duval
of Atlantic, he was pretty nearly pre-
pared to say he had the hotel thief in Gus
| tody. The Cass county sheriff came &c
/ Council Bluffs yesterday in company with
/ Mrs. DAILY and the chRmbermaid who had
encountered the thief in the corridors ant
they instantly identified him as the mar
! they saw whom they met face to face
Green was then wearing a natty blue
! suit. but when arrested here was clothed
in a new suit of widely different colol
and pattern. Sheriff Duval took Greer
back TO Atlantic yesterday afternoon and
he will have to stand trial on the robbery
charge. The Omaha police department
made an earnest demand for Green be
cause he was wanted on three charges
but Chief Froom concluded the man woulC
stand a better show Of retirement II con
signed to the care of the Cass county
authorities.
Green has been arrested scores of time
in Council Bluffs and Omaha, but he hal
always been too shrewd to be convicted
The last time he robbed the Grand hotel
County Attorney Hess had him indictt'
under the common thief act and he wa
given a term at Fort Madison, securing hi
discharge last spring. He has served on
term in Nebraska, sent up from Blair Hi
specially is hotel Jobs and the police sa,
he is one of the most adroit and success
full in the country

FAVORABLE REPORT MADE ON
 BANKHEAD GOOD ROADS BILL

or county where it is expended must spend another dollar on the same road. This means $1, ,0O0 GOO worth of good roads out of the first appropriation.
 It is declared In the report that there is countrywide sentiment in favcr of better public highways. The automobile has done much to encourage this senti- ment Various states have made appro- priations, and these have been supple mented by the counties, the report fur ther states. Senator Bankhead now wants the federal government to do it's share.
 It Is set forth that there is now an annual appropriation of S5,673,000 for the rural free mail service. This service Is seriously hampered by the bad roads. To build better roads on the rural routes would, therefore, serve double purpose, the report states. It would facilitate the mail service and give the country people better highways accommodations.
 Senator Bankhead also refers to the fact that France has expended $612, or, GOO on its system of highways. It Is, there fore possible in that country for single horse to haul on an average 3306 pounds at load. In this country it is set forth the horse is only able to haul 800 pounds. 1.-The economic effects on land values and the general incentive to further improve merit in country life are other reasons advanced for the passage of the bill.

SENSATION CAUSED
 BY INDICTMENTS

Hopkinsville, Ky, March 24.-(Spe- cial.)-A decided sensation was ere ated here today when it became known that the grand jury had returned in dictments charging embezzlement from a corporation and obtaining money un- der false pretences against R. H. De- Treville former. president and general manager, and G. B. Galbreath, for mer secretary and treasurer of the Acme Mills and Elevator company. The indictments are the outgrowth of the discovery last summer that the mill was in bad straits financially. MT Galbreath has remained with the mill up to the present time, and is now q member of the board of council Mir DeTreville resigned his position with the mill several months ago and now lives at Birmingham, Ala. Both are prominent in business and social cir cles.
 MT. Galbreath came into court this morning and gave bond for his ap- pearance for trial. He declares emphat- ically that he is innocent and will have no trouble in vindicating himself. There are six indictments against each man. divided evenly between "obtaining money under false pretenses" and ''em- bezzlement from corporation"
 The Acme Mills and Elevator com pany is capitalized at s200, ,00o and had been paying ' per cent dividends, and the stock was regarded as a gilt edge investment The mill has a capacity of 1900 barrels flour a day The fore most business men of the city have taken charge of the plant and have apparently placed it again on pay ing basis

TzvO ThOuSdnd Persons Made
 Homeless By Ravaging Fire

S5 business buildings were consumed. The property damage is estimated at close to $500, 000 with two-thirds of that amount covered by insurance.
 The tents distributed by a detachment of national guardsmen are sufficient to house only a small portion of the desti- ute.
 During the height of the fire today many of the rough element in the com munity seized whisky barrels and be- coming intoxicated from their contents engaged in footing. Serious trouble was threatened at various times during the day and evening, according to a dispatch received by long distance telephone.
 Citizens of the surrounding country side, armed with Winchester rifles and shotguns, turned out and assisted in pre- serving a semblance of order until the ar rival of the militiamen tonight.
 Many of the sufferers from the fire were removed late tonight to the nearby towns of Mcdonald, Glen Jean and Thurmond.
 The militiamen were kept busy tonight preserving order among the rough element and had little opportunity to minister to the wants of the hundreds of persons who lost their belongings in the confagratioh.

Washington, March 24.-(Special. )-The
 movement for the joint government, state
 and county construction of roadways seems to be ready to materialize. Sen
 ator Bankheads bill providing for the
 government participation in such an ar engagement has been favorably reported to the Senate
 An appropriation of $500, 900 is provided for the beginning of the highway con- struction. It Is said in the report that this amount Is purely for an experimental trial of the plan. If 1t works, and the local cooperation Is assured, 1t is a fair
 guess that the government will go deep
 Into the business of building good roads, It will provide every representative In Congress with an opportunity to do some
 thing substantial for his rural constitu- ents. The Bankhead bill provides that the first S500,oo0 shall be spent in building better roads for the rural free mail de- livery service. This feature of the bill
 makes 1t an act to extend government tai function.

 uents spends in road building the state

MORE CONFESSIONS ARE MADE IN PITTSBURG GRAFT CASES

Pittsburg, March 24--The confess sions of six men who appeared before Judge Frazer today were accompanied by sensations. The climax came when George B. Anderson, former select councilman, fainted as the court asked him if he had ever received money for his vote. Before the judge could fn- ish his question Anderson had fallen backward, striking his head forcefully on the hard wood floor of the court room. Attendants and attorneys rushed to his aid and when he was revived he answered the judges question as though there had been no interrup- ton.
 Robert K. Cochrane, formerly a mem Der of councils, admitted receiving $500 to vote for the bank depository or dinance and $500 for the ordinance va eating South Seventh street. His ad- missions startled Judge Frazer, who wanted to know how 1t came that he received so much for voting for these measures while other councilman rez oeived much less.
 Cochrane was unable to make a sat- isfactory explanation.
 He insisted that he had distributed none of the money.
