Any severe exercise gave me distressing
pain under the left shoulder blade L Suf-

three to four hours sleep was the most could
get in any one night. One week in Septemoo

finally got DR.. Miles Nervine and Heart Cure
at q drug store in Lawrenceburg, and in
three days have derived more benefit from
the use of DR.. Miles remedies than got from

Judge Flandrau,s sneeoh.

Judge Flandrau apoiogized for having
come to the meeting unprepared. He
had mistaken the nature of the meeting,
he said. He was of the opinion before
he arrived at the league rooms that it
was Oh the order of club or social
gathering he was to address. His adj.
dress, however, was interesting, and at
its conclusion the members applauded
him heartily. His subject, he said. in
spite of its seeming magnitude, was
simple one, on the same prin-
ciple that the greater things
seem in this world the simpler they
are. HIS subject might be simmered
down to two reasons why Democracy
was the party of the people. First, that
it recognizes all men as equal before
the law. Second, that it never tolerates
legislation or governmental methods
that take from one class and give to
another. 1t was perhaps because these
principles were not lived up to that
there were matters tor general COM
plant.
1t was necessary, the judge said. for
people to know where their rights came
from, and with this he delivered him.

The receivership of the Minneapolis
& st. Louis road will expire in three
months. and considerable speculation
has been aroused as to what disposition
will be made of the property. Accord
ing to A. E. Clarke, general solicitor of
the road. the old company will
regain the ownership by the last of
June and the company will be put
on its feet once more. In speaking Of
this yesterday, MIR. Clark said:
''Of course, the earnings of all the
roads are greatly reduced at present,
and we could not hope to pay off the
mortgages with only the revenue which
comes from that source. The road has
done exceptionally we'll of late, how
ever, and the property is in such fine
condition that / think it is more than
likely that the company will be able to
raise enough money on 1t to regain pos
session. We confidently hope that by
July reorganization will take place,
and the road once more be placed in an
independent position and on paying
basis"

WILL NOT DOWN.
Courts Will Have a Chance at the
Fire Department Scandal.

Courts Will Have q Chance at the
Fire Department Scandal.
Among the interesting cases to be
tried in the district court next term Is
the one to be brought against the city
by the :fremen who were discharged
without cause by Chief Runge. The
matter of bringing the suit is in the
hands of Freeman p. Lane and Matt
Gallagher. They will institute pro-
ceedings against the city, as a test case,
for James Brady, the truckman, who
was let out by the chief Immediately
upon the supposed settlement of the fire
department scandal. The attorneys are
hard at work securing evidence i'll the
case, and when it comes to trial some
thing will drop, to use a figurative term
of speech.
At the time of the fire department
investigation Brady was Subpenaed to
appear before the grand jury and tell
what he knew about the "goin; onS" in
the department. The committee Oh the
fire department of the council notified
him that te must attend the grand jury
sessions and testify. He was an I'M
willing witness, being poor and de-
pendent for the living of himself and
family upon his position. The grand
jury and committee, however, assured
him that he would be protected in his
position, and 10 matter what he testified,
SO long as it was the truth. his position
was secure. Brady accordingly went
before the committee and told all he
knew. When the council gave the
chief a certificate of good character by
eXonerating him of all the charges,
Runge Immediately discharged Brady.
He discharged him without cause and
i'll manner not provided for in law.
During the first part OF last Novem-
Der. a delegation consisting of Aid. NJ.
Rand. Aid. Lackey, and Matt Gallagher
called on the chief at his office and re-
QueSted him to reinState Brady. lie
agreed 10 do SO within few days, but
he never did it. He kept the unfortu-
nate fireman lying around idle all winter
long, under promises OF putting him to
work. The chief admitted there were
no charges against Brady, so it would
appear that the matter was personal
one with him. In the meantime, over
thirty new men were added to the de-
partment rolls, men of no experience
whatsoever.
IL Ills lGSl case is SucceSSl III SIX VI
seven other cases will be brought. The
men will all sue the city for the pay
ment of their salaries from the time
they were discharged from the depart
ment until the time or The suits. This
is what Brady will ask. Matt Gallagher.
in speaking of the case yesterday, said:
81 can't say anything about the case
at the present time. | will say this
much. however: Brady was discharged
from the fire department without cause
and to satisfy spite that Chief Runge
bore him for telling the truth. Please
put the word truth in Italics"
1t is understood that all the old scan-
dial Will be revived and dragged into the
trial. A lot of evidence that never came
out during the council investigation will
be brought out III the trial.
