HE FELL DOWN HOLE
John Forester Sues the City Of Butte
for $1,000 Damages.
AN ACTION FOR DIVORCE
Sarah Smith Says Her Husband
Abused Her-Wants a Writ of
Mandate-A Bill for Rent
-To-Day's Calendars.

The damage suit of John Forester
against the city Of Butte was called for
trial in Judge Speer's court yesterday be-
fore a Jury composed of Edward Temby,
Fred Chino, T. b. Eva, George A Smith,
Richard Mulholand, Joe Murphy. Edward
Levy, j. T. Brown. John Grove, John In
gram, N Genereaux and Haskell Osgood.
In August, 1894. he walked on sidewalk
on East Park street, and according to the
testimony of DIR. Holmes, who attended
him, sustained an injury to his right leg,
causing necrosis of the bone, hepatitis
and perhepatitis of the liver, bronchial
troubles and affected his breathing APP
paratus. Forester lived in the rear OF
a building at 25s East Park, and reached
his room by means of passageway
about three feet wide. between two build
ings. on the night when he met with the
accident he was going home between 10
and II o'clock. and when he reached the
east end of the old Centennial lodging
house he saw about three feet OF inky
darkness between two buildings and con-
cluded that he had reached the passage
way leading TO his house, and walked in
TO it. He discovered his mistake when
he landed among a lot of timbers and
rocks about IL feet below the sidewalk.
badly bruised and shaken. He managed
to extricate himself and went home, but
he did not learn the extent of his injuries
until he called in a doctor and was in
formed that he had necrosis hepatitis
and perhepatitis. He was confined to bed
three or four weeks and was disabled for
more than three months. and then sued
the city for $1,000 damages for not having
a danger signal at the palce where he
walked Off and also to be reimbursed for
800 paid out for medical attendance. The
doctor testified that Foeresters injuries
were in a nature permanent, because a
man who once had perhepatitis became
predisposed to such disease and is there
fore not a first-class subject for insur-
ance.
The defense to the suit was that Foer-
ester was drunk at the time of the acct
dent and contributed to his injuries by
his own neglect and carelessness.
Don't you know as a matter of fact
that you were drunk that night?" Foer-
ester was asked on cross-examination.
mo. sir: / don't know it,
The trial VISA about half completed
when the sudden death of Mrs. Hamilton
was announced and the jury was dis
charged and the setting of the case vaca-
ted.

Mr.. Rouch Has a Nv ord or Two to Say
Abort Retrenchment.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
Verify these are days Of retrench-
nent, or at all events there is demand
for it. 1t is the farthest swing Of the
pendulum toward the side of economy.
All the people desire it and demand il.
50 the pendulum can swing no farther
in that direction. In 1SSG-S7 there was
no demand for economy and according
" we bought and contracted for the
best of everything, and some times
neglected to pay the cash for IL There
was no fTugality. no economy, but on
the contrary lavish if not wasteful use,
application and appropriation of the
public funds. The pendulum has
reached the highest notch on the side
OF liberal and prodigal use Of the pub
lie funds. and by the law of financial
gravity il swung back 10 whore We now
find il. Neither OF these positions are
the golden mean. but both are feverish,
uneasy and unsettled extremes.
