his patients. The drug store is only q

Mr.. To5ten was not in the store at the

the gentleman who presented the pre-

that the man was somewhat stout and

BROWN PLACE DISPUTE.
The Railway Bridge the Subject
Of A Hearing By Judge
Werts.

A group of contesting lawyers occu.
pied the time of Judge Werts this morn
ing in Chancery Chambers. The consider.
alton was in progress Of the application
for a writ of certiorari brought by Reuben
Simpson, Henry Lembeck and other
property owner who claim to have been
injured by the construction Of a bridge at
Brown place. Greenville.
Mungo Currie and Charles S. Black
represented these discontinued citizens;
Corporation Counsel w. ID. Edwards
looked after the interests Of the
city, sna Collins & Corbin,
represented the National Docks Railway
which has constructed the bridge. In
cidentally these gentlemen also protected
whatever interests the Lehigh Valley
Company has or may acquire.
The facts concerning the application for
the writ of certiorari have been made
public through THE NEWS repeatedly.
They are simply q request to Judge Werts
to allow the action of the Board of
Street and Water Commissioners in
granting privilege TO the railroad COM
pauy to erect the bridge, to be reviewed
Nv the Supreme Court. The suit was
originally beroae Judge Knapp, but was
continued before Judge Werts.
Mungo Currle today read a long afi-
dayit, which recIted the facts every one is
familiar with. and his associate, Mr..
Black, declared that there were but two
propositions to be considered. The
first, he said. was whether
the prosecutors, Simpson, Lembeck and
others, were in q position In law to ask
for this writ. Mr.. Black said that Judge
Knapp had substantially decided they
were. The other question raised WAS
to what extent did the control
of the Board of Street and
Water Commissioners over the land in
question prevail. The lawyer talked
long and earnestly concerning these two
points and begged Judge Werts If he had
any doubt whatever, to give theb benefit
OF it to the Prosecutors, so that the SUI
preme Court might review the proceed
ings.
Lawyer Thompson read a long affidavit
made by w. II. Corbiu relating 10 the
titles and purchase of the property in
question and other lands in vicinity. and
then on behalf of City Corpora
alton Counsel Edwards stated his
views. He said that six or seven years
ago it was found necessary to sewer
Greenville, and an act permitting this TO
bedone was passed by the Legislature.

acts, and it was provided that private
lands might be acquired for sewer pur-
poses. When the city bought Brown
place, it made a mistake in not condemn
ing 1t for a street. But 1t did not, and when
the railroad company came along and said
LET MS cross or we will condemn the land
for railroad use. The city gave the right
of way to it, for it was the only chance
that remained to the city to Sc
cure the land for street pur-
poses. BY such action the
Railroad Company forever abandonded
its right to cohdem the lands. ana the
city could do SO whenever in the future it
should be found necessary.

LAWYERS, reserved his decision.

A piece Of practical advice which girl
students away, perhaps from home
care for the first time, will do we'll to
heed, Ii the counsel to be prudent and
regular as to meals and exercise. writes
Maude Haywood In her department
Fart for Art Workers in the October
Ladies' Home Journal. Much has been
written from time to time about the
Importance Of having proper midday
repast, and the folly of women who
habitually perform long days work
on insufficient nourishment, and
1t Is to be hoped that few
are unwise enough to deliberately
risk the undermining of their
constitution by disregarding medical
advice and authority on this point.
The other requisite to good health,
namely, adequate exercise and recrea-
ton, is no less important. The close
application and the mental exertion
entailed in art work demands daily re-
Taxation, and, If possible, outdoor
sports, or at least plenty Of walking,
but preferably with some object In
view and with companion, for a soli-
tary constitutional is with most Of us a
poor anecdote to nervous fatigue.
Some kind OF recreation which takes
the thoughts entirely away from ones
work, giving change of occupation to
the mind as well as to the body, is rec
commended by all doctors in giving ad.
vice for healthy rule of life.

How many American women are
aware that the colossal institution in
Paris known as the Bon Marche was
founded by remarkable woman
Mime. Boucicaut, called by Parisians
the Lady Of the Bon Marche?' Philip
Hamerton says of her that she cnlti-
waited good as though it were an ac-
complishment. Managing the affairs
of the great enterprise which she had
founded with energy and unfailing
prosperity, she associated with her as
stockholders the chief of the various
departments who had given her faithful
service, that they might share in the
profits of the house, included as many
OF her employees as possible in the
business by ceding her own shares to
the common fund, subject to their pur-
chase, and at her death distributed by
will the shares that still remained in
her possession among the other stock
holders. The pension fund, which
Nine. Boucicaut created with q gift of
81, 200, 900 from her own private fortune,
is used in the support of the employees
forced to retire through age or illness.
With all her great wealth and com.
mercial power the "Lady of the
Marche" remained to the day of her
death plain, unpretentious woman,
with kind, motherly manner and
genial expression.

It May be Interesting to Know


That when excursion rates are made

plated by the western roads to also
make excursion rates from Chicago to
all principal business and tourist points
in the west, northwest and southwest,
so that those who desire to spend a

the Great West may have an oppor-
tunity of SO doing without mourning
much additional expense. It may be
well to consider this subject in advance
