When court convened this morning
the case OF Thomas #. Blakely ys. Tho
Edgemoor Bridge Company was again
taken up, and Thomas Kennedy, who
was on the stand when court adj
journed last evening, was recalled by
Mr. Lore. The witness was handed
some law books by the Chief Justice
with which he illustrated 10 the Court
and jury the way the doors were
located, aud how the man came to BIZ
struck.
just as the eiuss-examlnation
commenced the defense created quitea
surprise by having a large model OF
the doors, and the way the iron was
laid, brought into court. The witness
left the stand and with the aid OF this
model explained In the fullest manner
exactly how the accident happened.
When Kennedy left the stand George
Howett was called, anu testified To the
way the doors were fixed and how the
man came to be hurt.
Thomas +. Blalsely was recalled, and
said that he had nothing whatever to
| do with tho doors and was only at
tending to them by order OF Mr..
| Turner.
This closed the testimony for tho
! plaintiff, and Mir. Vandegrift opened
the case for tho defense to tho court
and jury.
John o. Turner was sworn and testl-
| fled that he lives at Edgemoor, and IL
foreman OF the shop q. Al the tine OF
the accident he was about 80 feet from
the building, when upon passing out
he saw Blakely coming out OF the
shops. He jumped In between the
dOorand the ends of the posts.
The plaintiff could have got on the
other side of the skids and been out
of tho way Of the door. Had he been
on the othpr side, where he should
have been, there would not have been
Z any cause for the accident. Blakely
seemed to be trying to hold The door
back. when no was caught. 1t was the
duty of the plaintiff to do what he
was told by the witness, and he did
not order him to take his gang and
move the iron.
As far as the witness knew the plain
tiff went voluntarily to assist in shut-
ting the doors. He was positive that
he had not given him any orders Con-
corning 1t, IA he was not within speak
ing distance of him. The doors were
fastened open by large iron plate,
which held them in place, and he never
knew OF any trouble with them.
While the witness was still on the
stand court adjourned until2.S o'clock
this afternoon.

Kill more people than Is generally
known. Particularly Is this the case
in instances where the constitution Is
delicate. and among our immigrant
population who are seeking new
homes in those portions Of the West,
and where malarial and typhoid fevers
prevail at certain seasons OF the year.
The best preparative for a change OF
climate, or of diet and water which
that change necessitates, is Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which not only forti-
iies the system against malaria, a va
riable temperature, damp. and tho de-
bilitating effects of tropical heat, but
is also the leading remedy for const-
patton, dyspepsia, liver complaint,
bodily troubles specially apt to attack
emigrants and visitors to regions near

Whether used as safeguard by sea
voyagers, travellers by land, miners, or
agriculturists in newly-populated dis
tricts, this fine specific has elected the
most favorable testimony.
