Washington, June l6.--Witn federal
recognition already granted to the new
battery of field artillery recently or
ganized at Cedar Rapids, the militia
bureau Of the war department is now
prepared to honor the requisition from
the battery for equipment necessary 10
put the new unit of the Iowa Nationai
Guard in condition for service III
France.
The personal equipment, such as uni
forms and side arms for the men VIII
be furnished by the depot quartermas-
ter at ST. Louis, while the gun car
riages and other rolling stock for the
battery will be issued at the Rock
Island arsenal. The guns, which will
either be- built at the arsenal at Water
vliet, n. Y, or frankfort, Pa, prob
ably will be sent to Rock Island for
assembling before being dispatched to
Cedar Rapids or the state mobilization
camp or divisional camp in the south
to which the Iowa National Guaro
members will go.
The question of a regular army Off
Ger commanding the Iowa regiment or
field artillery still remains undetef-
mined by the war department. While
General Mann. chief of the militia
bureau, has not yet received request
from Adjutant General Logan or Gov
ernor Harding ito furnish regular

head the six batteries Of field artillery
in the Iowa guard organization, 1t IS
intimated here that such IA request Will
soon be forwarded from the state.
Many other states have asked the
bureau to name regulars to lead the
state artillerymen, and the general
staff now has before it the request OF
General Mann to furnish the regulars
wanted by the states.
General Mann believes the war de-
partment eventually will decide to fur
njsh regulars to any state desiring them
as commanding officers, and he ike
wise believes that the states Will De

To Muster in Hospital Unit.

Council Bluffs June 16.-Members of
the Council Bluffs hospital unit, or
ganized here under direction of DR..
Donald Macrae will be mustered into
the regular army next week. Orders
to this effect have been received by
Dr. Macrae and the mastering will
probably begin on Monday.
A couple of days may DC required as
each Of the fifty orde:lies must undergo
another physical examination before
being finally accepted for service. Pre-
liminary examinations have already
been given the orderlies and with out
one exception, there is little question
but that the present roster will be
final.
Besides DR.. Macrae and DR.. John
McAtee, the unit comprises ten physi-
clans and surgeons. twenty-one regis
tered nurses and fifty orderIies or pri-
Yates.
AS yet no hint has been given out as
to when the unit is likely to be called
into active service, althO it is felt that
the summons is apt TO come within a
couple of weeks. 1t is probable the
unit will be sent to training camp
before seeing active duty behind the
firing line.

Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink a glass of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out polsons.

Life is not merely to live. but to
live well, eat well. digest well, work
well, sleep well, look well. What a
glorious condition TO attain, and yet
how very easy it is if one will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise,
splitting headache, stuffy from a
cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid
stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh
as a dasy by opening the sluices Of
the system each morning and flush
ing out the whole of the internal poi
aonous stagnant matter.
well, should, each morning, before
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
breakfast, drink a glass Of real hot
water with teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels
the previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and lime
stone phosphate on an empty stom-
ach is wonderfully invigorating. 1t
cleans out all the sour lamentations
gases, waste and acidity and gives
one a splendid appetite for break
fast. While you are enjoying youl
breakfast the water and phosphate
are quietly extracting large vol
ume Of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flush
ing of all the inside organs.
The millions Of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compIexions are
urged 10 get quarter pound Of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which will cost very little, but i
sufficient TO make anyone a pro
nounced crank on the subject o
internal sanitation.

GOLD CONSPIRACY CASE.

ICoNTINUED FROM PAGE oNEI
after John B. Cusack, John Muelhau-
sen, Carl Muelhausen, Martin Snod
grass and Charles Z Reed, all of
Cheyenne, had been arrested here,
and Frank Cochran, an assayer, had
Ieen arrested at his home in Victor,
! Colo.
These men, the officers said, were
/ held on charges of "defrauding the
| government" because the method Of
operation of the alleged organization
was to receive stolen high-grade ore
/ from miners at an assayer's office,
where it was smelted, then convey
! il to other points, one of which was
said to be Cheyenne, in automobiles,
and later to ship it to some point
designated, where one of the members
Of the organization would offer it for
sale at federal mint or assay of
flee, which, the officers pointed out,
placed the government in the position
cf receiving stolen goods. Most Of
the ore, the government said, came
from the mines in the Cripple Creek,
Colo, district.
The shipments said to have been
made from Cheyenne, were by eX-
press, and it was the large amount
&C gold shipped from that point, dis
tant from any gold producing CEN
ters, which led the government agents
to look into the alleged conspiracy.
Several other arrests followed those
of the men named and shortly indict-
raents were returned by a federal
grand jury at Cheyenne against them
and the following:
Charles Daniels, Cripple Greek,
Colo; Dennis F. Sullivan, George j.
Heber, Daniel Mcleod, Victor Pc
terson, of Denver; William High,
Goldfield, Colo; Ora Chane, Benja-
Iain Fuller, Victor, Colo; Rudy Weis-
garber, Cripple Greek, Colo, and John
lhl, Georgetown, Colo. all of whom
%ere taken into custody. The five
last named and CuaZ were held in
Jail pending trial, which later was
fixed for June 25, 1917. The others
were released on bond. The charge in
each case was conspiracy to defraud

WANT ADDRESS

WHEREABOUTS OF MRS. DELLA
FOSTER NOT KNOWN HERE.
MISSING FOR A MONTH
EIG HOG RANCH OWNER CAUS-
ING MUCH WORRY.
Judge Hill Is Working Hard to LO-
cate Successful Grower of Swine
in the Mesquite Lake Section.

"Where is Mrs. Della Foster, the
Hog Queen of Imperial Valley?"
This is question which Judge Hill,
of the law firm of Seymour & Hill,
would like answered. Her friends are
anxious regarding her continued and
unexplained absence.
For months Mrs. Foster has been
getting much space in the Los An
geles papers as the most successful
raiser of swine in the Southwest, and
is credited with the most notable
;chievements, truthfully perhaps, of
any woman in the Valley. Her ranch
in the Mesquite Lake district has been
end still is one of the noted show
places of the agricultural wonderland.
Mrs. Fosters achievements have been
really creditable, and she is deserv-
ing of much praise.
However, Judge Hill and assistants
have been trying to locate Mrs. Fos-
ter for some days, to serve on her a
foreclosure suit on her 300 head of
fogs. The amount named is $1,000.
Judge Hill says another mortgage OF
$4,000 is being foreclcsed on the Fos-
ter ranch. The men on the ranch,
tending to the hogs, stated that Mrs.
Foster went away without saying a
word to them, and the mystery of
the whereabouts of the "Hog Queen"
is as much mystery to them as it
i, to Judge Hill. Her disappearance
is causing much uneasiness to her
friends.
A. U. Uinkletter, as guardian for
Ter father, Herbert Linkletter, &C.
centric and wealthy Calipatrian, is
the holder of the mortgage on the
hogs. 1t is believed Mrs. Foster will
appear within few days and ar
range for the Strengthening out of
her affairs and relieve the anxiety
among her friends caused by her sud
den disappearance.

STIFF PENALTY
GIVEN FOR SALE
OF CIGARETTES
JONES MORE THAN
DOUBLES PENALTY HERETO
FORE HANDED OUT FOR SELL
ING "SMOKES" TO YOUNG.

Geo. Cummings, the proprietor of
confectionery store on East Wright
street, paid $4,000 in the court of
record yesterday when he pleaded
guilty to selling cents worth of
cigarettes to minors. His fine was
$500 and costs, and the additional
money counted up the costs which had
been figured against him.
Not only was he fined rather stiff
ly, but it became known to him and
and to others who might violate the
same statute that cigarettes must
not be sold to minors, and that if
necessary a Jail sentence would be
handed out to. all who might violate
the law in the future.
In the past, violators of the cigar
cite statute have been getting off
rather lightly, for some of them es-
capped with nothing more than costs.
When the offense was continually re-
peated a $40 fine was added to the
costs, but the surprise came when
Judge C. NJ. Jones passed on the
above referred to case in the court
of record yesterday. The case was
made by the probation officer. who
was jubilant yesterday when he
learned of the cooperation which he
had in the campaign to eradicate this
evil in the city.
