U. S. Marshal Crowley Brings Man Ar

Arrangement Before Com
missioner Miller
SAID TO BE AN OFFICER
ing Officer for Marine Corps and
Was Arrested by the
Police.

Deputy United States Marshal D. c.
Crowley returned to Keol1uk yester
day with H. G. Clark, in custody.
Clark was captured at Sperry, Iowa
about twelve miles from Burlington.
The capture was affected on a tele-
phone tip from some farmers living
in that vicinity, who evidently recog
nlzed the man as a fugitive. Clark
told different stories as to how he
came to be in the country, but tho
marshal is confident he made his get.
away from Burlington only that aft
iernoon.
Clark IS held for impersonating a
United States officer. He is charged
with having represented himself as a
marine recruiting officer Clark was
arrested at Burlington by the police
there, and his uniform of the United
States navy was taken from him at
that time.
According to Marshal Crowley the
man had left Burlington when he ar
rived on the afternoon train. Marshal
Crowley had been relying on the Bur
lington police to keep in touch with
the man, and had supposed that they
would be able to lay hands on him
ct any time. Instead, the quarry had
made his escape. A lucky telephone
Tip gave a clue, and the man was
found at Sperry.
He said he had been there for a
week, but when the marshal noticed
Iperspiration rolling down his face,
he asked the man If he didn't leave
Burlington only that afternoon. The
prisoner admitted the truth of this
statement. He was dressed in work
clothes, and carried no baggage.
Clark, according to the Burlington
stories, is said to have acted queerly
and to have represented himself as
heir to a large fortune.

THE Value OF truth

Truth in business is just as important
as truth in everyday life; truth creates
confidence, establishes goodwill aud
builds reliability that will not be
wrecked by the storms of competition.
Through three generations people
have learned to place reliance on the
advertised words of SCOTS Emulsion,
because they are untarnished, unex-
aggerated truisms about household
remedy of real and actual worth.
The popularity of SCOTS Emulsion
is increasing as intelligence advances,
because in these days of authorizations
it continues to guarantee pure cod liver oil
incidentally perfected with glycerine and
hypophosphites to build strength, inn
prove the blood and strengthen the lungs.
It is free from harmful drugs-a whole
some food-tonic, truthfully advertised.

The railroad man said that it ought
to be clear enough to anyone that a
number Of empties in the center Of a
long train Of heavily laden cars in
front and behind might easily in
many cases, become a source Of dan
