COURT NOTES.
Suit for Damages Against DR.. Nc
Lennan-Insuranc Case.


H. Leonard has filed suit for dam
ages to the amount of $1,000 against
DR.. D. McLennan for injuries sustained
by the plaintiff while being treated by
the doctor for a malady.
The doctor who intends leaving on
the Monowai today has filed bond for
$1050 to compensate plaintiff in the
event of the suit being decided in his
favor.
1t seems that plaintiff had some trou-
bic with one of his legs and the doctor
advised him to heat a brick, cover it
with flannel moistened in vinegar and
apply it to the pain. The patient did
so and the result was Il badly burned
leg which bothered him and prevented
his working for a month and half.
The result was the suit filed yesterday.
The suit of H. W. Schmidt & Sons
against the Royal Insurance Company
was decided in favor of plaintiff. The
jury stood 9 to 8.
The Morrow assault case was on trial
all of yesterday and at $50 p. m. the
jury returned a verdict of guilty, three
dissenting. Attorney Creighton for the
defense noted a number of exceptions
and will probably appeal the case.

Domingos Ferreira Behind the
Bars of the Police Station.

Bars of the Police Station.
Domingos Ferreira was arrested yes
terday afternoon on the charge of using
indecent language toward Gloria Me
deiros, with intent at assault. Upon
making complaint at the police station
the woman stated that she wished
Ferreira to be put under bonds to keep
from further molesting her.
The story told by Ferreira was to the
effect that he had written several let
ters to Gloria and that she had answer
Ell them favorably.
A day or two ago he sent Frank Pes
tano, young Portuguese boy, to the
house of Gloria to tell her that he was
waiting near by in a brake, and that if
she was so inclined he would take her
for drive.
Gloria beat the messenger so that he
was black and blue all over his body.
This she did in payment for the i'm
pertinence of at least suggesting her
taking drive with Ferreira.
In the police court yesterday morn
ing Gloria plead guilty to the charge
of assault and battery and was fined the
usual amount.

I'm a report just issued, General

reviews the progress made in the army
since 1886, in point of prophylact1c

are still as they were in Mr.. de Frey

relating to typhoid fever. In 1886 the
number of cases of this disease was
7771. being over IA per 1000; in 1894
it was 5000, being under 6 per 1000; a
reduction obtained by an almost pro-
gressive decrease in each year. This
result is shown by detailed eXamina-

says he was only trying to get away
from horse and buggy that crowded
too close in his rear

it kicking and plunging, all who looked
on expected that the unfortunate man
would surely be killed. He was finally
extricated, and it was found that he
had escaped with some bruises on his
head.
The phaeton was badly wrecked and
the shafts of Mr.. Howard's buggy were
broken off short Mr.. Howard made
