A Notable Trademark Decision.

MADISON. Wis, Nov. 2S-Speclal.-Judge
Romauzo Bum, o, =. Circuit Judge for the
Western District of Wisconsin has decided
for defendants In the case of the Sterling
Remedy Co., proprietors Of "No.to.bac,"
against the Eureka Chemical u Mfg Co.,
proprietors OF "Baco Curo." Suit was bro't
by the former April Bird last, asking $4,000
damages and an injunction restraining de-
fendant from using the name "Baco euro"
from advertising the same and from using
boxes, racks, ETC., which, it was claimed were
infringements upon those used by "Noto.
bac" Judge Bum decides for defendants
on the ground that no marked similarity
exists that no Infringement has been made
and thal"B Curo"by its injunction" Don't
Stop Tobacco" shows itself to he entirely
distinct from motto. bac," in that the latter
requires the patient to cease using tobacco
when commencing the remedy. By the
terms of the order the compliments bill is
dismissed and costs are taxed in favor of
defendant. The case has excited especial
interest inasmuch IS it is the first of like
character ever heard in the Wisconsin Fed
eral courts and the decision, it Is believed,
will govern in all similar cases, Judge Bum
being noted as an able jurist both in WIS.,
consln and elsewhere.

ELLERY DISCHARGED.
Justice Davis Holds That 1t Was
Matter for Civil Action.

G. w. Ellery, fruit grower, who re-
sides at Loomis, Placer County, was on
trial yesterday morning in the Police
Court for having obtained money from
j. A. Browne, the proprietor of the Co
mique. The evidence showed that Ellie
ry had presented a check for 81, which
Brown cashed, and then run a bill for
liquor and cigars amounting to so,
upon the representation that he had
only recently deposited 5000 in D. O.
Mills Bank, and had $1,000 on deposit
at the Peoples Savings Bank.
As a matter of fact, Ellery did not
have 5000 ON deposit in D. o. Mills
Bank, or any other sum, and while he
had done business with the Peoples
Savings Bank a number of years, he
had at the time in question only 81 81
on deposit The check for 81 which
Brown cashed was worthless.
Ellery testified that he had received
the check Browne cashed from another
party and thought it perfectly good. He
was very much under the influence of
liquor at the time and had no recollec-
ton of making amy statement to Brown
relating to bank deposits.
Justice Davis said the evidence was
not, in his opinion, sufficient to warrant
a conviction, and that the matter was
properly one to be settled by a civil
action. Ellery was discharged accord

A New Invention.

Eds. Record Union: Friday after
noon we attended a private picnic out
at Oak Park. 1t was cool and pleasant
and a delightful breeze was blowing
just the kind of breeze for kite-f1ying.
Suddenly we were surprised by hearing
some one call out in a rather trembling,
but loud voice: Now, there let her &c"
On looking up we saw an elderly gentle
man, with snow-white hair and beard,
endeavoring to raise ali immense kite.
One of our party observed that the kites
had no tails, and when / saw she was
not mistaken, l said: ''Oh, pshaw, why,
they'll never go up. For while it did
look as though they'd prove failure,
but soon a brisk wind came up, and to
our amaZement the kite scared high and
higher in the air, until all the string
was out and the kite a mere speck in
the sky.
Shortly after this two other kites were
raised, and both went up without any
scruple on their parts, much to the de-
Light of the boys, who were under chap
eronage of Uncle John Douglass for SO
the gentleman proved to be. IS it any
wonder they were d success when they
had such an able maker as Uncle
John?" LITTLE ONE.
