the cause of action survives him his heirI
may appear and may upon suggestion Of
the death being made in open court make
themselves parties plaintiff. 1t is he'd
that in such case the suggestion of death
may be contradicted If the parties are all
lowed to appear and prosecute the suit
upon the mere allegation that they are thel
heirs of the party whose death has beeu
suggested, this allegation is put in issue, in
actions of trespass to try title by the plea Of
not guilty of defendant, ard it is incumbent
upon them to prove it upon the trial. This
was not done. 1t appears therefore that in
no event could verdict have been properly
returned for the plaintiffs. The questions
were of first impression and was not raised
in the court below. Had it been raised in
the trial the plaintiffs may have supplied
the omission. The cause viii not be affirmed
however, on this point if any material er-
ror was committed by the court. No ma
terlal error found, and the judgment is af-
firmed as to all plaintiffs except Mary V.
Allen, and remanded as to her. Opinion

This was an institution organized by number
OF prominent men in Philadelphia the intent of
which was TO Issue benefit certificates, payable
TO holders at the end of nly-eight years. and
coupon of which, one-eigbth OF the entire
amount, was to be paid every three aud hall
years. In 1886 We introduced 10 the fraternal
congress resolution, which that body adopted
the subsequent year, taking the position that
while as a business proposition 1t might be cor
rect and feasible to pay moneys TO members In
health and prosperity, yet IT could not be held
That such was the intent or object OF strictly
legitimate 1rateFnal societies, whose object was
and ought 10 be strictly the relief or distress
visitation OF sick, and the payment Of sick, fu-
neral and death benefits. Consequently, said
congress ever has refused to recognize on the
legitimate fraternal society plan any organiza-
tion promising 10 pay endowments 10 members
10 health. This was an original idea OF the Fra.
ternal Index OF The CALL, promulgated years
ago. To this exception was taken by several
organizations, among them the one whose name
heads this article, the Iron Hall and others.
As Is we'll known number of such have been

ments collected and demanded failed 10 meet

Is claimed that malfeasanee of officials caused
It's collapse, and various reasons are given for

that members expected 10 pay In 500 and get

IMPROVEMENTS AT THE "HUB" CLOTHING HOUSE On Church Street. \ Fine SaIssruom to hs Made of the
 Second Floor.

In order to utilize every foot of avail able space under their roof, and also to obtain better light for the display and sale of their goods, this firm have decided to make extensive improvements in the building which they occupy. The contract for the work, which has been given to Builder David H. Clark, calls for radical changes throughout the second story, such as the removal of stairways to third story, removing partitions, also the removal of the front wall-to be replaced with a front of plate glass-new floor, ceilings, etc. When completed this will be one of the handsomest, most con venient and best lighted salesrooms in New Haven. The alterations will be begun this week and pushed through to completion. In the meantime, and during the progress of these alterations, the great bargain sale of
 Mems and Boys' Clothing and Furnishing Goods will be continued. The prices in
 all the departments of the store have beer
 marked down and scores of bargains are here for the purchasing public Call early and get the cream of the prizes. It is i'm. possible to name the large number of ex.
 traordinary bargains offered at this sale To avoid handling and moving our large
 stock of merchandise, we propose to gel | over the difficulty by clearing out oul | present stock and at the same time giv, l every purchaser a benefit. Come to tn, l "HUB."

DIR. DAMON,s WONDERFUL
Power too Strange to Define, te Mysterious to Fathom-The Clini Will Be Continued.

Power too Strange to Define, too
 Mysterious to Fathom-The Clinics
 Will Re Continued.
 Again Warner hall was filled to over flowing and it is fact that the wisest, best educated and most enlightened people of New Haven are daily becoming converts to these new principles and methods, which are supported by such grand and over whelming evidences and proofs that no which echo and re-eeho in the human mind, as they witness the grandest and most sublime panorama of living truths as presented by this wonderful physician. Dr. Damon is to the medical world what @ Booth is to the theatrical, Beecher to the theological, an Ingersoll to the oratorical, or & Strakosh to the musical-a man tow ering above all others in the healing art.
 By touch or word of command, with out even removing the outer garments of the patient, all in full view of the audience, he heals the sick, causes the lame to walk, the decrepit and deformed, the paralytic and rheumatic to throw aside their crutch- es and canes, and bids them "Arise and walk!" People from all over the state flock to see him and are held spellbound witness ore after another go upon the stage and receive blessing in the way of relief or cure.
 Of course all cannot be seated free, so those who are able to pay go to the private office, 928 Chapel street, where they are quickly cured by the doctor or one of his able associates, who are masters in thi. great art. Saying that such cures cannot be done does not change the fact. They are done. Not behind the door, nor in the secret recesses of dark office, but in pub lie, on the open stage, before large audi ences of intelligent people. These free clinics have been held for many weeks, 1 thousands have witnessed them, thus it is an assured fact, beyond dispute by | even his most bitter rivals. ! A lady who was cured of rheumatism ovs, | year ago stood up and, said she wal
 treated twice only, and had never had any | return of her old enemy. She said that
 she considered it god-send to the poor oi
 New Haven for Dr. Damon to cure the
 people free as he was doing. This pro
 duced hearty round of applause in which
 every lady joined. The doctor announced
 that arrangements had been made with MT l Warner, the owner of the hall, to continu,
 the lectures and clinics every Friday dur 1 ing March. The next lecture and clinic I will be given Friday at 2:30.
