A PREVALENT DISEASE

There is no disease so prevalent in Amer

has so generally baf11ed and defeated the
skill Of the medical profession. The only
remedy for this distressing complaint is a
pure medicated stimulant, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. whose essential principle
is pure spirits. is admitted by medical
practitioners to be the only Alternative
corrective and restorative on which they
can rely. The Bitters are the best possi.
bic specific for flatulency. dizziness, water

indications of confirmed dyspepsia. They
do not excite. but soothe the .irritated
by persons of the most delicate and sensi-

affected by the use Of the ordinary stimu-
lants of commerce. Though their effects
are most decisive. yet they are SO mild

THAT BICYCLE SUIT
Yin" Mellus Comes Out a Winner of
sl35

In the suit Of j. Mellus VS.. Wesson-
Nivison Manufacturing company tried
during the past week in department five,
an opinion was handed down yesterday
by Judge Shaw. wherein he found judg
ment for the plaintiff for s135.s1. without
costs.
THE only contract" says the court
actually made between the parties was
a preliminary one by which, in advance
of the formulation of a permanent con-
tract, the defendant agreed to ship to
the plaintiff twelve bicycles. to be sold
in the meantime. This agreement is con-
tanned in the letter of Jan 4, 1896, from
the defendant to the plaintiff. The prop
osition therein made was accepted by
the plaintiff and Constitutes the contract.
The defendant AGREED to ship the bicycles
cons igned to itself but In the care Of the
plaintiff at Los Angeles. the plaintiff
was to pay the freight store and take
care of the wheels keep them insured
and sell them. The plaintiff was to be
charged a price agreed on for each wSSel
and was to pay for them as fast as they
We're sold. but he was not restricted in
any manner as to the price for which he
was to sell them nor as to the terms of
sale. He was to report the sales monthly

fendant in cash at the agreed price.
without reference to the price or terms
on which he sold them. The twelve bi
cycles were shipped to the plaintiff and
We're received by him.
THE effect of this contract was con-
ditional eXecutory agreement for the sale
of the wheels by the defendant to the
plaintiff. The wheels remained the
property of the defendant until the
plaintiff sold them. When a sale of
wheel was made by the plaintiff the con-
dition was fulfilled the sale to the plain
tiff became complete and the title passed
at once to the plaintiff and through him
to the second purchaser The case comes
exactly within the rule stated in ex-
parte White, 6 L. r. Ch. App. 397, 4O5
quoted and approved In Vernon Marble
company.
THE letter to the defendant contained
statement that the wheels were strict
" nigh grade goods and equal to the best
offered in the market. This taken in the
connection in which it was used would,
upon sale OF these goods. constitute a
warranty of quality by the defendant
The wheels turned out to be of an
inferior quality, and the evidence shows
that they were of much less value than
they would have been if they had con-
formed to the warranty. After the plain
tiff received them he made an examina.
ton and discovered their inferior quail
ity. He thereupon refused to accept
them, refused to go on with the contract
and returned the wheels to the defend
ant.
Upon the faith Of the contract and
upon the warranty that the goods would

AN INSURANCE CASE
A Sum of Money Tied Up for Policy-hold.
ers' Benefit

In the suit of the Los Angeles Mutual
Life and Accident Insurance company
VS.. NJ. R. Higgins, an opinion was hand
ed down yesterday by Judge Shaw
The $4,000 which the plaintiff sought to
recover the court holds is required by the
law to be held in trust for the holders of
policies in the plaintiff corporation. "The
agreement of the plaintiff" says the
court. with the Bankers Alliance shows
that the plaintiff transferred its policies
to the Bankers Alliance, and the Alli-
thereon.
IF there are any policy-holders the de-
posit of $4,000 cannot be returned without
their consent No such consent is al
legged. The complaint does not state
sufficient facts and the demurrer must
be sustained" The question whether
policy-holders are necessary parties to an
action of this nature is not determined.
