VERDICT FOR THE CITY.
Heirs of the Late Mr.. Morrison Lose
Their Case at Madison.

Madison, Wis, Feb. 14.-The heirs of
the late w. II. Morrison, state superin-
tendent of farm Institutes up to the time
of his death a little more than year ago,
were defeated in their suit against the
city of Madison to recover $4,000 dam
ages for the injuries which caused his
death. On December 13, 1893, Mr. Nor
rison fell on an icy crosswalk near the
State university and was so badly hurt
that he died two weeks later. 1t was at
time when all the walks were covered
with sleet, impossible to remove, and the
Supreme court has held that under these
circumstances the city is not liable. Mr.
Morrison, however, fell on an apron
put in temporarily, slanting from the
sidewalk to the street across the gutter,
which complicated the case. The jury
was out from 11:30 a. m. till 4:30 D. m.
when verdict for the city was returned.

Do YOU KNOW
WHAT IT IS /?

You feel strangely depressed,
weak, perhaps have no appe-
tite, and with peculiar pains
throughout your body. Per
haps some one will tell you you
have the grip. Perhaps you
have, but the chances are you
are suffering from a derange-
ment of the greatest organs in
the body. DO you knoW this
great truth? Much that is called
grip is simply q arrangement of
the kidneys, and no man or
Woman eUer had the grip whose
Kidneys we're in perfect order.
These great organs of the body
throw off the poisons of the
body. When they are out of
order they cannot do this, and
the result is the poisons go
into the blood and cause
rheumatism, influenza and
often pneumonia. These are
truths which all physicians
admit, and it is admitted uni
versally, that there is but one
remedy known to the world for
deranged kid neys, and that is
Warmers Safe Cure. You can
afford to neglect these truths
nor these suggestions.

Mr.. Savage and others last evening
upon the bill which is designed to al
low small children to be taken from
their parents and placed in a home for
infants, in cases where parents refuse
or neglect the care and education of
them. The merits of such a measure
were brought out, and members of the
committee asked questions and spoke
against the bill One senator charac-
terized it as a kidnapping bill, that au-
thorized some well-meaning person to
do something that ought not to be
done, namely, taking small children
from their parents without their con-
sent. 1t might do well under the man.

but the law would allow abuses to
grow up. The committee will report
