corrected when the blood and nerves
are right.

vous irritated, gloomy foreboding
that always accompanies a tired, IN
der'fed nervous condition.

peal to the City Council

most every cigar stand and saloon In

are reaping a harvest. Some Of them
offer prizes consisting Of cigars. drinks

proves the greatest source of evil The
matter has been detailed to Capt. Rob-
erte. and he will promptly put his orders
into execution.
1t is said that there Is one firm Of cigar
dealers in this city that offers chance
of IS in cash for a nickel, and It is al
legged that its proceeds for the day
amount to an average Of $780, The profit
realized In this instance is sometimes
500 per cent. There are numerous other
inducements offered by the proprietors
OF these machines which pay their own
ers extraordinarily well.
It is reported that those who operate
the machines have recently held Sc
cret meeting and have decided to make
united effort to get the city council to
pass an ordinance which would license
them, and If unsuccessful in this plan,
they would employ attorneys to fight the
matter through the courts.

terday in the divorce proceedings

peculiar one. Mr.. and Mrs. Rorez came

husband to take her back to Massachu-
sets. He refused to do this, and trou-
BILE began. His wife then threatened to
commit suicide unless she was sent
back to her old home. When things
came to this pass, Rorez bought her
ticket and placed her upon the train.
Mrs. Rorez now positively refuses to
come back to her husband, and conse-
quently he instituted proceedings for
a divorce. After hearing the evidence
Judge York took the matter under ad-
visement.
A decree was granted Mrs. Charles
Kloth by Judge York, divorcing her
from Charles Kloth on the ground of
extreme cruelty One of the witnesses
testified that few hours after the we'd
ding ceremony had been performed
dispute had arisen over some of the
guests present and Kloth had struck
his newly-wedded wife on the shoulder
with a cane, laming her for several
weeks.
Judge York also granted a decree to
Mrs. Helen e. Rogers, divorcing her
from Henry Rogers, on the ground Of
desertion The desertion occurred four
teen years ago.
