The Macarthur Republican In
comments on the decision of Judge
Slough in reversing the receiver
ship Of the G. S. & II. Ry says: an
deciding the case Judge Slough
said there was no occasion for ap-
pointing the receiver in the first
place" Where did you get your
affirmation, Bro. Soule, concerning
the language Of Judge Slough {?
Did some body tell you all Of that,
or did you just make it up? How
you could have gotten II just OPP

a suit of many defendants is
brought for the next term of court by
Mr.. James Il: Brown of the Column
bus Detective Bureau, against
twenty seven creditors of the
defunct Peoples bank for 100000.
The petition alledges that the de-
PENDANTS were parties to an arrange
ment to authorize the plaintiff to
proceed at any necessary means to
secure the capture of Lawrence A.
Culver, indicted for embeZzlement,
that the plaintiff secured said Cul-
yer at much expense, and the de-
PENDANTS failed to materialize with
the portion of pay to re-emburse the
plaintiff. The case pror- ises to be
merry contest as much able coun.
Gil is employed. Judge Blackburn
of Cincinnati, will champion the
cause of the plaintiff. 1t will be re-
membered that Mr.. Brown recently
entered suit against w. w. Keynes
for $4,000 alledged money promised
by the later for the securing of Cul.
yer. The plaintiff was unable to
establish the eXistance of a contract,
upon which the suit was brought,
and he lost the case. The case will
probably come up in Il new petition
this time for services rendered on
verbal arrangement and understand
ing, and make merrier chase for
the defence. A battle royal will be
the clash.

Looked Like a. Flood.

The heavy rains Of Friday and
Saturday with the presence of a
goodly amount of snow and ice In
the hills made heavy flood eminent
for Sunday and Monday, but the
high winds of Saturday night had n
depressing effect and the river at
her highest was but little out of
banks. The huge gorges Of ice even
at that made the safety of many
bridges and low fences feared. Not
much loss was suffered along this
valley, but in the Muskingum valley
and along the Ohio, much damage
was done by raging gorges of very
heavy Ice. Along some of the small
creeks in our county we have learned
that some considerable damage is
done by the blocking up of narrow
passes by the heavy ice. This IS the
time OF year for heavy floods but we
hope the worst is past

The Reception Ball
Given by Mr.. and Mrs. II. T. Ambrose
was Quite the Pretty Airair
of the Winter.

Last Friday evening will go down
in the memories of the elite of Logan
as being the occasion of the prettiest
reception of the winter, and the in
stance was the bow of welcome of
Mr.. and Mrs. II. f. Ambrose to their
many friends in Logan, as the young
lord and landlady of the Rempel
Hotel, and the recently welded host
and hostess of a happy home, anoth-
er gem in the fireside crown that
encircles the ties that bind together
the good people of our community.
Not long, at the stated hour, were
the hotel parlors in becoming close
with the many friends, and as the
dreamy waltz floated out from the
orchestra, the guests caught up the
strain, and soon the pleasant we'll
wishers were a gliding brilliancy of
merry faces and CHEEKY laugh. A
kindly repast was served during the
evening, and the guests did fair to
the hospitality of the good host and.
hostess.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ambrose are among
the most pleasant of Logan's royal
society, and it 10 n pleasure indeed
for their host of friends in this city
to thus assemble, and bear to them
the many well wishes for long and
happy united lives. The affair was
brilliant and the out pouring kind
wishes of among Logan's best, but
not more deserving than merited by
the good lord and lady of the Rem
pei hotel. They have our bene-
diction for as few trials as may be-
fall nnture's most favored.

Rather Expensive Bluff.

A suit for 100000 on a bond was
instituted by Attorney General
Monnett on behalf Of the state
against the Columbus Hooking
Valley and Athens railroad com
pany, William +. Hays, Elias NJ
Poston, o. w. Kelley, o. S. Kelley,
Andrew Bauman, G. w. Lamb and
@. B. Cowan. The suit was brought
at the request of the railroad com
pany to settle points in dispute re,
lative to the legislative enactment
providing for the abandonment of
the Hooking canal and its lease to
the railroad company.
The act provided for the aband-
onment of the canal for canal pur-
poses and its lease to the Columbus,
Hooking Valley and Athens road
for railroad purposes. 1t was fur.
ther provided that the company
should pay 100000 down and after
1900, $4,000 ii year as rental for the
use of the lands. The lease was to
run for 80 years The law provides
$4,000 must be paid into the state
treasury before the construction of
the road is begun, and this money
is now in the hands Of the treasur er
Of state. The act further says that
the road must he commenced with
in six months after the passage of
the law and must be finished in
two years after the enactment of
the bill.
To insure the construction of the
road within the specified time and
according to the conditions and
terms Of the act the state r, quired
that bond for one hundred thou
sand dollars be executed to the
state and upon failure to comply
with the law the bonl should be
forfeited. On May u, 1894, the
bond was given by the company
with William f. Hays, Elias NJ
Poston, Oliver w. Kelley, Oliver
5. Kelley, Andrew Bauman, q. w |
Lamb and G. b. Cowan as sureties. |
This bond was approved by the
attorney general and accepted by |
the auditor Of state. In compliance
with the act the state abandoned |
the Hooking canal from its junction
with the Ohio canal IN the village
of Carol, Fairfield county, to its
southeastern terminus in the will
age of Jacksonville, Athens county,
and ceased to use the canal FIR
canal purposes ever since May Is,
1891, and granted to the company
;he franchise Of constructing, main
tanning and operating a railroad.
The petition goes on to state that
the company took exclusive pos.
session Of the land, but efused and
to construct II railroad
on the land. a period of more than
two years has elapsed since the
passage of the act granting the
the franchise and the de-
fault of the bond, it is claimed, has
become absolute. The state claims
to have made frequent domNuls
upon the company for the paym ent
Of the one hundred thousand, " hicb
has been refused and by reason, Of
these promises there is due the
state the sum Of one hundred thous-
and, for which judgment is asked.

Death OF T.. C.. Jones.

just as the clock struck the hour
OF twelve Sunday night the spirit of
MIR. e. G. Jones took it's flight from
its mortal tenement and scared away
into the realms of the hereafter.
F.. 9. Jones was born in the State
of Indiana on the 25d day of Decem-
Der, lS43. On the 18th of October,
186', he enlisted IN Co. G of the 4th
Iowa cavalry and served as a private
until December 5, 1864, when he was
honorably discharged at Memphis,
Tennessee.
About 1879, the deceased settled in
Eureka, Nevada, and folio we'd his
trade as blacksmith. 1888 he re-
moved to Elko and worked a year in
MIR. Galdagger's shop. He then par-
chased the business of Mr.. Guldag-
ger and conducted it up to the time
of his death.
He has been ailing for the last two
or three years and made several trips
to Salt Lake where he consulted the
leading physicians and had opera
tons performed. About year ugo
he went to San Francisco and stayed
come time in the French hospital.
He was benefited by the treatment
but his old trouble soon returned and
he has been gradually failing for sew
eral months.
MIR. Jones was a. honorable man
in his business relations and stood
high In the community. His death
has left vacancy in our little com
munity that will he hard to fill.
The deceased leaves widow and a
host Of friends to mourn his loss. The
funeral will take place from the J. o.
o. F.. Hail at o'clock tomorrow af-
ternoon under the auspices of Elko
Lodge, No. I8, /. 90. F., of which
the deceased was aworthy member.
The storm of lies battle over, may
the old veteran sleep in peace.
Since the above was put in type,
Mrs. Jones has received a telegram
from the brother Of the deceased
who lives in California, stating that
he will arrive Wednesday morning
and the funeral is therefore post
poned until some time Wednesday
forenoon.

THEY RIDICULE IT.
MANY PEOPLE RIDICULE TIE
IDEA OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE
FOR DYSPEPSIA AND sTOM-
ACH TROUBLES.

Kfdlcule, However, Is Not ArSumeut
aud Facts a.e Stubborn ThiHRs.
Stomach troubles are 80 common
and In many cases so obstinate tn
cure that people are apt to look with
suspicion on any remedy claiming to
be a radical permanent cure for
dyspepsia and indigestion. Many
such pride themselves of their acute
ness in never being humbugged, es-
pecially on medicines.
This fear of being humbuggeG may
be carried too far; so far, in fact, that
many persons suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk a
b: tile time and money in faithfully
testing the claims of preparation so
reliable and universally used as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are vastly different in one important
respect from ordinary medicines for
the reason that they are not a secret
patent medicine, no secret is made of
their ingredients, but analysis shows
them to contain the natural digestive
ferments, pure asceptic pepsin, the
digestive acids, Golden Seal, bismuth,
hydrastis and nux. They are not ca
thartic, neither do they act powerful
ly on any organ but they cure indiges-
ton on the the commonsense plan of
digestipg food eaten promptly, thor
oughly before it has tune to ferment,
sour and cause the mischief. This
is the only secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and
never can cure indigestion and stom-
ach troubles because they act entire
ly upon the bowels, whereas the
whole trouble is really in the sto ~
ach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken
after meals, digest the food. That is
all there is to do. Food not digested
or half digested is poison as it creates
gas, acidity, headaches, palpitation Of
the hear, loss of flesh and appetite
and many other troubles which are
ofteu called by some other name.
They are sold by druggists every
where at 80 cents per package. Ad-
dress Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich, for
book on stomach diseases or ask
your druggist for it.
