NEW YORK POLICE FORGE IS CORRUPT
Curran investigation Discioses Frightfui Condition Among
 Gotham's Blue Coats.

New York, Jan. 2i.--The dis closures made by witnesses before the Curran aldermanic committee under examination of Emory R.
 Rucknrr, the committee coun- sel, have disclosed friehtful condition of graft in the city po- lice department. Many women, owners of houses of ill fame, have testified that they paid from $150 to $500 a month for protection.
 The investigation started soon after the shooting of Gambler Rosenthal, who had refused to agree to a fake raid after he had paid his money for protection, and when the police insisted that 1 for the sake of public opinion he
 had better consent to be raided and start up in a different loca- ition, he replied that if he was molcsted he would reveal the con- ncction between the police and the gamblers. For this he was murdered when he stepped out of one of the leading hotels in the heart of the city.
 The relations between thr pn- lice and the underworld has been laid bare and since the expose the police have made war on the wit nesSes of the committee and in many instances they have been fnrrcd to leave town. The records of the police department have been denied to he aldrrmanic in- vest igator> except upon an order
 from the court. and then it has been found that many important documents have been stolen.
 1t has been cnncluSivcly shown That the police and the numerous gangs of robbers who worked the town, have been working tugeth- er, and that many of the crooks of the town were in alliance with he uniformed force.

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES

An examining physician for one
of the prominent Life Insurance CON-
panies, in an interview on the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
the reason why 81 many applications
for insurance are rejected is because
kidney trouble is SO common to the
American people, and the large ma.
jority of applicants do not even sus.
;pect that they have the disease.
He states that judging from his own
experience and reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is n
preparation tIat has probably been
more. successful in relieving and cur
ing diseases than any remedy known.
The mild and healing influence Of
DR.. Kilmer's swamp.Root is soon real,
lied. 1t stands the highest for It's re
markable record of cures.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad-
wise our readers who feel in need Of
such a remedy to give it a trial. 1t Is
on sale at all drug stores in bottles OF
two sizes-fifty cents and one dollar.
However, II you wish first to test
its wonderful merits, send to DR.. Kill
Iner Co., Binghampton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle, absolutely free. When
writing be sure and mention the Bis.

The greatest event in stag parties III
the capital city this season was that
given last evening by Col. Sam Clark

some time. During the past thirty
days Sam has been out on the coast,
returning a few days ago, and bring

and many a good tale and jest, and
later, the call to tie spacious dining
room, where the hand Of prosperity
and liberality seemed to have spilled
the horn of plenty. 1t was fruit and
flowers, cut glass and fine linen,
steamed clans, oyster cocktail, crabs.
lobster, and every delicacy which
could be imagined, not excluding the
time honored item. OF fried chicken,

There was Il supcrabundanCc OF cv-

Man IN JAIL
FOR ~EMbElzLEMEN1|
FRED NELSON ARRESTED FOR
SELLING HOGS THAT DID
NOT BELONG TO HIM.

Fred 0. Nelson Of Baldwin was ar.
rested Wednesday. afternoon by Sher.
if Barnes on a warrant sworn to by
J.. b. Slosson Of the Fox Land Co..
charging him with embez2lement.
According to the story told by Mr..
Slosson, Nelson sold two hogs belong
ing to him and refused to come across
with the money. Slosson explained
that Nelson had been working for G..
G. Thysell Of Baldwin; that the Fox
Land Co., Of which he is a member,
purchased the Thysell farm and the
improvements and stock.
AS a matter of convenience the tt.
ties were made in Slosson's name as
a member Of the company. Mr.. Slos-
son said that he hired Nelson to work
on the place for a short time until
Mr.. Ulum, the man he placed IN
charge of the farm, could make ar
engagements to care for the stock and
look after the farm work without any
additional help. Nelson, according to
Mr.. Slosson, said that some Of the
n%eighbors might buy a hog, possibly
two, and he was given permission to
sell one or two If he could and was
instructed to turn yer the money
to Mr.. Ullam.
Continuing the story, Mr.. SlossOn
said that Nelson butchered a couple
of hogs and brought them to Bis
marck, where ne sold them to local
people and, after receiving the money
refused to turn 1t over either to Mr..
Ullum or himself.
Nelson is in the county Jail and
will be tried before Justice Perry
this morning at 10 o'clock. Attorney
Il. r. iMockler has been retained as
counsel for the prisoner.
