The Supreme Court of the United States,

creditors OF liumc's estate sought 10 force
application Of the proceeds OF the policies 10

on the ground that the premiums paid by
Hume were "A fraudulent transfer Of an In.

AN EXPLANATION.

What is this nervous trouble" with
which so many seem now to be afflicted
il you will remember few years ago the
word Malaria was comparatively unknown
to-day IL is as common as any word in
the English language, yet this word
covers only the meaning of another word
used by our forefathers In times past
So 1t is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended to cover what our
grandfathers called Biliousness, and all
are caused by troubles that arise from a
diseased condition of the Liver which in
performing its functions finding 1t cannot

''Do you see those fellows over there smok-
ing their cigars so complacently? Well,
they come up here almost every
evening just about supper time and
set around, pick their teeth with our tooth
picks and act as if they own the whole
building. yet they never took a meal here
or spent cent with us in their lives.
Then. there are the fellows that use up
quires of our stationary, pocket our
matches and toothpicks and appro-
pirate the seats that are pro
vided for the use of the guests
There are two pseudo dudes in the city
who have their mail addressed in care of
the hotel yet ! doubt if ever they had
money enough to be a guest of the house" "
.Will you register sir"
The man addressed said he guessed he
would.
''Now do you know that fellow
was trying to beat Us out
of supper by not registering
until after the supper hour and thus have
us charge him with only lodging. Then
we have the man with the valise full of
brick, the dead beat who slips in and out
of the dining room when we are not

of things we must look after
to keep from being beaten. Here,

THE PRESENT.


Why should we cling to the past. there
aught
That whispers of joy without bringing to
thought
Its echo of pain?
'Tis well if the swift passing years kindly
weave
A shroud of forgetfullness-murm grieve
Ger the dead past again
Why should We dream of the future. The
veil
By time rent asunder, doth oftentimes
fail
In the vision revealed;
To show forth the beauties we pictured, the
gloom
And darkness that fall round the shadowy
tomb
Is the fruitage it yields!
Thoughts of the past can no brightness
restore,
Dreams of the future can give nothing
more
Than the present bestows
Now is the time that should claim our best
thought,
Dreamers like idlers are counted as naught
In the worlds row.

ing. The routine business on hand is Just
a little larger than common, especially if
all the baskets containing referred pa
pers' should be emptied.
4 new ordinance is promised which il is
thought will be favored by large vote,
one that about equals the strength of other
similar measurerS that have been adopted
The makers and investigators OF the move
ment don't mean for it to be known that
such thing will be attempted, and espec-
tally do they want the subject matter re-
main a solemn secret. The ordinance
threatened. howeve, pertains TO the pres
ent city law of dealing with so called
whisky vaes The proposed change will
do away with any such supposition that "A
whisky vag" is possible taking the joint
pulling 5asiness entirely out of the hands
of the police and thus knocking out one of
the methods OF replenishing the city treas

stated that during the week past his firm
hes released mortgages on city and Sedg-
wick county property amounting to 81, 600,

Concerning collections he'said: ''Of this

MIR KEENE on THE BACoNIAN THEORY.

The members of the Shakespeareana
We're accorded a very pleasant interview
by Thos. keene, the Tragedian, last even
ing after his performance of Richard Ill,
at the Crawford-Grand.
Each member of the club had the honor
of hearty shake from the eminent actor.
Upon being questioned as to the Baconian
theory, he replied that in his opinion it
was fallacy, and he could prove by the
''cypher'' theory used by Ignatius Donnelly
that Robert Ingersol wrote the Bible-in
fact he stated that anything could be prov
en- by numerical reasoning
He was further questioned as to the
proper pronunciation of Coriolanus and
gave that used by Edwin Forest, and gen
orally accepted on the stage, as Co-ri-o-la-
nus, with accent on the second syllable
He expressed himself as well pleased
with the audience and the appreciation
shown Mr.. keene proved himself an
agreeable gentleman, as well as talented
artist.
