UNDERTAKEN, EMBALMER AND
FURNITURE DEALER.

On the West side of Broad street,
Just South of Brinkley's door,
Stands the large, Comnodious building
Known as Ziegler's Furniture Store.
He carries a very choice stock,
Of everything, in the furniture line,
And also deals in Undcrtaker's ware,
In finish and style very fine.
And being a Cabinet-maker himself
Having long served at the trade,
He's always prepared to do new work,
Or repair the old ready-made.
He feels assured, your wishes to please,
And your every taste crafty,
That you'll no longer hesitate,
But make your selections and buy.
At his prices you never complain,
Or the terms he offers to sell,
Either at a discount for CASH,
Or instal1ments, if it suits as we'll.
A kind invitation he extends to all,
Especially every new married pair,
To call and examine his beautiful goods
Before making purchases elsewhere.

hearing partially impaired. the throat with
an irritating soreness n the stomach with
impaired digestion. 1t seems to take a long

that nothing for this purpose is equal to
good whiskey. 1t is unfortunate, however,
that there is so little pure medicinal whiskey
to be found, and, in fact, it can be truly said
that there is but one truly medicinal whiskey
upon the market, and that is Duffy's Pure

LAY JUDGES FEES.
Judge Kenny Loses His sui Against
Surrogate OsNeil.

surrogate ~ eli.
John A. McGrath received word yester-
day that the Supreme Court had decided
against Lay Judge John Kenny in the
friendly suit he brought against Surrogate
James H. O'Neil for fees the judge claimed
should be paid to him and not to the county.
Some months ago Judge Kenny, after much
research of the law, concluded that the
county was getting fees that belonged to
him and Judge Hoffman. He so told Surro-
gate O'Neil and Sheriff Stanton. l. Surro-
gate did not agree with the judge and re-
fused to pay the money over. Sheriff Stan
ton, however, agreed with Judge Kenny,
and paid to the lay judges the amounts in
his hands claimed to be due them.
Upon the refusal of the Surrogate to pay
the fees in his office to Judge Kenny the
friendly suit was determined on, and for
that purpose County Collector Dugan on be-
half of the county made a formal demand
for the fees. Surrogate O'Neil refused to
pay the money to the county also, because of
the demand made by Judge Kenny, and that
made the necessary issue between the Judge
and County Collector.
Allan T.. McDermott represented Judge
Kenny in the case and Judge McGrath the
county. The case was argued in the
Supreme Court which decided yesterday
that the statute of 1899 upon which Judge
Kenny based his claim was not in effect, and
therefore decided the case against him.
The lay judges receives about 50, 200 year.
in fees, and had Judge Kenny won his suit
this sum would have been annually Increased
from 81, 600 to $500. The money that
Sheriff Stanton paid to the lay judges under
the law of 1889 VIII probably be returned to
him and by him turned over to the county.
Judge Hoffman, told me some time ago that
he had made separate deposits in the bank of
this money until the case was decided by the
Court, SO that if the suit should terminate in
favor of the county the money would be
intact and ready for the County Collector.
Judge Hoffman is now in Florida and, it is
presumed, does not know of the adverse de-
ficion

CATHOLIC CAUSE IN CANADA.

dress last night before the leading French
club in the city.on the Manitoba school ques-
ton, ex-Premier Mercier said the rights Of
Catholics of Manitoba had been sacrificed,
and that Roman Catholic bishops were
largely to blame. He claimed if French
Canadians wanted to obtain their rights
they would have to forget their divisions,
and unite against other Provinces of the
Confederation. The influence of French
Confederation, aud their interests would
soon all be sacrificed unless they now took a
firm stand. Mercier's remarks aroused great
enthusiasm, and he was frequently cheered.
Mr.. Tarte, M. p, also spoke, and defended
the Bishops. He expressed the opinion that
the Catholic cause was not yet lost, and that
dams would vet win.
