A LOVE STORY TOLD.
The Romance Brought Out in a Suit
on a Life Insurance Policy
ON TRIAL In THE COUNTY COURTS.
The Verdict in the Starr Railroad Case to
be Known To-Day.
GENERAL NEWS FROM LEGAL QUARTERS

A suit on a life insurance policy has de-
veloped a romance. The case is on trial in
the o. S. Circuit Court. 1t is that of c. b.
Aiken, executor of A. O. Smith, against the
Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany, to recover $40, 900 on a policy of in
surance on the life of Smith. The payment
of the policy is contested on the ground that
Smith committed suicide, which would rem
der the policy void. From the witnesses
heard Yesterday it was learned that Smith, who
was a resident of New Castle was engaged to
be married to a young lady named Jenkingen.
The young lady broke the engagement and
Smith became very respondent He was heard
20 remark that he would never go out OF the
house until he was carried out His words
were true, death coming on him suddenly.
At the time the cause was attributed to an
overdose of some narcotic drug. Afterward it
was asceTtained that Smiths sister, at his re-
quest, had purchased nearly an ounce of prus-
sic acid for him. he making some trivial excuse
as to the use he wished to make of it When this
fact was learned his symptoms were found to
have corresponded with those of person who
had taken such drug. Electric batteries had
been applied and all the known remedies for
narcotic poisoning used, but they proved of no
avail.
The witnesses examined yesterday were
Doctors J. L Cooper and Calvin Welsh, and ].
c. Hutton, the druggist from whom the prus-
sic acid was purchased by Miss Smith. Dr.
Cooper testified that during one of the de-
spondent moods of Smith be was attending
him. He suggested that the young lady be
asked to come to see him, and that perhaps
that would revive him. Smith replied that it
would be of no use to ask her: that she wouldn't
come. He said that he had gone to her house,
and saw through the window that she had
company, and he knew that his case was hope
less.
DR.. Welsh testified to attending Smith, and
Druggist Hutton as to the sale of the prussic
acid.
The plaintiff will attempt TO show that Smith
was subject to heart disease and that his death
was due to that

About five months have elapsed since
THE DISPATCH mentioned the discovery
by Controller Morrow of lot of interesting
documents, some of them nearly 100 years old,
bearing upon the early history of Pittsburg.

well known journalist, Charles 7. Dawson,
supplemented this with history of the fire Ue-
partment The two together have been pub
lished in one book, entitled ''Our Police and
Firemen."
In the fire history MIR. Dawson has been as
sisted by other gentlemen known in local jour
nalism-Messrs. W. Il. Gutelius. E. B. S2wyers,
Andrew McSwigan, James s. Henry. G. A.
Evans, r. B. Montreville and r. B. Powell.

Some Nom Union Attorneys Express Views
About the Coming Picnic.
On the Court House steps yesterday stood
several attorneys. Without exception they
had taken umbrage at the action of the
County Bar Association at its last meeting in
declaring that persons who wished to take part
in the next annual picnic must be voted for and
elected to membership
One of the legal fraternity seemed to voice
the sentiment of the gathering thus: 81 am ia
vorably disposed toward the Bar Association,
but I do not care to be drilled into it. The Bar
Association is composed of about one-third of
the members of the bar, and the action looks
to me much like an attempt by the tail to wag
the dog. hope to be member of the organi-
zation some day, but don't want to be driven
into il.
81 suggest that we get up picnic of our own
after the association affair is over. and invite
such members cf the general bar as we choose
and among them such of the association as we
think bestD

The Great Electric Light Case TO be Heard
Mt That Time.
The counsel in the Westinghouse-Edison
electric suit yesterday appeared before Judges
McKennan and Acheson, in the United States
Courts, and asked what date the case would be
taken up. They were Informed that the equity
list on which the case is, would be taken up
as soon as the jury trials were ended. Judge
McKennan. however, added that Justice Brad
ley, of the United States Supreme Cout, would
be here next Monday, and the counsel had bet
ter prepare their arguments for that time, as it
was desired that Justice Bradley sit with them
on the case.
The Edison people allege that it was the
Westinghouse attorney who tried to have the
case postponed on Monday last. On the other
hand, the Westinghouse people say it was nota
direct request for postponement.

Ladies! Why does BL00KER'S
DUTCH COCOA cost one dollar per
lb.2
Because: it is made only of the ripest
and choicest Cocoa-bears, from which all
the indigestible fatty substances have been
carefully removed; it is unadulterated with
Starch, Arrowroot, Vanilla, Sugar, etc., as
other so-called Cocoas. are. Blooker's
Dutch Cocoa therefore at 81 90 per lb.,
GOES FURTHER than TWO pounds of
adulterated Cocoa.

Was very fair, and some thought it rather favor
ableto the defendant He stated that the

About Quality:

About Quality:
It's a mistaken notion to
make a pack-horse of price
in Clothing.
1t can't alter the quality or
turn inferior workmanship
into reliable.
The strong point is-Is
this a tried and proved quail
ity? Is it known to be strong?
Is it made of the best and
choice materials? Will it
give me long and good wear2
That's the Wanamaker
rule. Quality is kept in the
foreground-quality, without
which dependable clothing
cannot get along.
Isn't that better than max

Racine Whisky is too Much for a Kenosha
Horse and He colIapses.

Two we'll known Kenosha young gentle
men were in Racine the other night calling
on their best girls and doing little paint
ing on their own account. When it was
time to 60 home one of them purchased two
bottles of whisky and off they started They
were nearing Kenosha, when the horse
seemed to stagger little and they thinking
he was i'll, administered bottle of whisky.
He went a little further and stopped, they
then gave him the other bottle He went
two rods and then collapsed all of a sudden,
falling to the ground and stretching out
stiff. They were only d mile from home
but the dead horse must be got out of the
way before the boys caught On to it or they
would never hear the last Of it. They left
the horse and proceeded to farm house
near by, awoke the farmer. gave him $40 to
say nothing about it and bury the horse the
first thing in the morning Starting then
for home, they had gone but a short dis :
lance when one of them, who had forgotten
something in the buggy, went back after it.
He was gone but short time when his
comrade heard him shout, and going back
saw the horse calmly feeding by the road
side. Each of them promised not to let
the story out, but it came out all the same
