SUSTAINED THE DEMURRER
Judge Siebecker's Decision in the
American Loan and Savings
Association Case.

Madison, Wis.,, April 14.-[SpeciaLl-
Judge Siebecker has handed down his
decision upon the matter argued before
him some time ago as to the right of
Receiver NJ G. Clarke to the mortgages
of the supposed value of 100000, which
had been deposited at various times by
the defunct American Savings and
Loan association of Minneapolis, with
the wisconsin state treasurer IN COM
pliance with the laws of the state in
order to transact business within the
state.
In January, 1885, upon application of the
encouragement of Minnesota, William
d. Hale of Minneapolis was appointed
receiver of this savings and loan ASSOC
citation. Proceedings were at once taken
in this state to place the securities held
by the state treasurer in the hands OF
the court for the protection Of Wisconsin
members of the concern and on Febru-
airy 6, 1896, M. c. Clarke of this city
was appointed receiver of the association
in Wisconsin by Judge Siebecker. The
question soon arose as to- Mr. Clarke
rights as receiver, and the matter was
presented to the court on q demurrer to
the answer filed in the proceedings here
by Receiver Hale 1t was claimed by
Receiver Hale that the deposit OF Sc
curities made by the association was
ultra wires and it's effect would be to
give Wisconsin members a preference
which would be in violation of their con-
tract with the association that al of the
assets OF the association should be
equitably divided among all OF the
creditors.
Eugene G. Hay of Minneapolis APP
peared as counsel for the general recelv-
crs; w. III. Mylrea as Encouragement
and Lewis, Briggs and Dudgeon appear
ing on behalf of the state treasurer and
Receiver Clarke. Judge Siebecker sus-
tanned the demurrer. The case. will prob
ably be appealed to the Supreme court.
Receiver Clarke's right to collect the Sc
curities has been recognized by the Min
nesota courts and the only question will
be as to the application of funds.

THE KAvA-KAvA SHRUB and probably was
piper Methysttcum0 used for centuries
by the natives before its extraordinary
properties became known to civilization
through Christian missionaries. In
this respect it resembles the discovery
OF quinine from the peruvian bark,
made known by the Indians to the early
Jesuit missionaries in South America,
and by them brought to civilized man.
It is wonderful discovery, with rec
ord Of 1900 hospital cures in 80 days. It
acts directly upon the blood and kid
neys, and is true specific, just as quiz
nine is IN malaria. We have the strong
est testimony of many ministers of the
gospel, we'll known doctors and business
men cured by A1kavis, when all other
remedies had failed.
In the New York WeekZy Ford of Sept. 10th,
the testimony of Rev. w. B. Moore, D: d. of
Washington, d. c. was given, describing his
years Of suffering from Kidney disease and
Rheumatism. and his rapid cure by Alkav1s.
Rev. Thomas Smith, the Methodist minister at
Golden, Illinois, passed nearly one hundrec
gravel stones after two weeks use Of Alkavis.
Rev. John H. Watson, of Sunset Texas a minister
of the gospel of thirty years service, was struck
down at his post Of duty by Kidney disease.
After lowering between life and death for two
months, and sill his doctors having failed. he
took Alkavis, and was completely restored to
health and strength, and is fulfilling his duties as
minister of the gospel Mr.. R. c. Wood, a prom
inent attorney of Lowell, Indiana, was cured OF
Rheumatism, Kidney and Bladder disease of ten
years standing, by All1avis. Mr.. Wood describes
himself as being in tant misery often COM
PEELED to rise ten times during the night on
account of weakness of the bladder. He was
treated by ali his home physicians without the
least benefit and finally completely cured in
few weeks by A1kavis. The testimony is
doubted and really wonderful Mrs. James
Young, of Kent Ohio, writes that she had tried
six doctors in vain, that she was about to give
up IN despair, when she found A1kaviS and was
promptly cured of kidney disease and restored
to health. Many other ladies also testify to the
wonderful curative powers of A1kavis in the
various disorders peculiar to wonlanhood.
So far the Church Kidney Cure Com
pany, No. 40 Fourth. Avenue, New
York, are the only importers of this
new remedy, and they are so anxious to
prove its value that for the sake of intro
duction they will send free treatment
of A1kavis prepaid by mail to every
reader of this paper who is Sufferer
from any form of Kidney Or Bladder
disorder, Bright's Disease, Rheuma-
tism, Dropsy, Gravel, Pain in Back,
Female Complaints, or other af1iction
due to improper action of the Kidneys
or Urinary Organs. We advise all Suf-
erers to send their names end address
to the company, and receive the A1kavis

prove its wonderful curative powers.

Owen McHugh at Green Bay is attract

terrible famine of 1869 and that he was
succored by members Of the church. He
felt the debt of gratitude was great and
in his will he remembered those who haG

DEATH OF CALVIN JACKSON
A Pioneer Resident Passes Away
After an Illness of Several
Years.

Waukesha, Wis, April IA Especial
Calvin Jackson died at midnight last
night after an illness of some years,
which assumed an acute form last sum
mer, depriving him of almost all digest
i've power. He had been unconscious for
nearly a week previous to his death.
Mr.. Jackson was born at Tuscarora,
n. Y, August 90 1880, but his parents
removed shortly afterwards to Toledo,
o., where his father died, leaving him an
orphan at the age of 2 years. In 1916
he came to Waukesha to live with his
sister. Mrs. William Elder, whose hus-
band was proprietor of drug store here,
and attended school for some time at the
er reaching Waukesha he obtained en-
ployment in A. w. Hatch's drug store,
but as soon as he had laid up enough
money he took a course in pharmacy, and
went into the drug business here on his
own account in 1854. He found that he
needed a better business education to
take care of his pidly-increasing trade,
and therefore left his store for some
months in charge Of his assistant, /. M.
White, while he took a course at Gin
cinnati business college. Returning, he
soon built up a remarkably successful
business in drugs and sundries, which he
kept in a most efficient condition until
1884, when he sold out and retired from
all active work, except the manufacture
of certain proprietary medicines and 9th
er chemical preparations, which he con-
tinued for several years afterwards.
Mr.. Jackson was married May %,
1861, to Miss Eliza Wilbor of Huron,
O., who survives him. Their only child
now living is Mrs. Ketella q. Haynes of
Waukesha, who has been member of
her parents family, since the death of
her husband, something more than
year ago.
The funeral will take place from Mr..
Jackson's residence on Wisconsin ave-
nue. at 4 o'clock on Friday afternoon. 1t
is expected that the Rev. Dr. d. 2.
Wright will assist the Rev. Mr.. John
ston in the ceremonies.

THREE-CENT FARE LAW.
Indianapolis Street Railways Decline to
Recognize 1t.

indianapolis, Ind, April 15.-The new
laws went into force at midnight by the
governors proclamation. Chief interest
here attaches to the 3-cent street car fare.
The Citizens Street Railway company
gave no instructions to conductors and
declines to consider the law until de-
cision is reached in the federal court,
where test case is Under argument.
On North Indiana car the conductor
put a young woman off the car by force
when she declined to pay more than 3
cents Other conductors have adopted
the 3-cent fare and say they will pay 2
cents additional out of their own wages
rather than have a row. The law pro
yides a heavy penalty where more than
3 cents fare is collected.

BICYCLISTS ARE EXEMPTED.
Michigan Judge Decides Against Plank
Toll Roads.


Detroit, Mich, April 15.-Judge Steere
has decided that plankroad companies
have no right to exact toll from bicyclists.
The defendant company contended,
among other matters, that man is an ami
NAL, and therefore the company had a
right to collect toll Judge Steere said:
while it is true that man is an animal
and bicycle is vehicle, we are not
prepared to accept the contention that the
term animal, as found in the act under
which the company was incorporated,
would include men, women and children
on bicycles, or nurse maids with baby
carriages
Although technically man is an animal,
we think the clear intent of the Legisla
ture was to designate draught animals,
beasts of burden and other dumb brutes.
There seems to be but two reported cases
on the question of collecting toll from BIZ
cycles. and, unfortunately for the peace
of this issue, they arrive at contrary con-
clusions.' Judge Steere held that the
plaintiff was entitled to recover and or
dered judgment in his favor for $125
