DEMURRER ovERRuLED.
Judge Jones Renders n Decision In the
Electric Light Injunction.

Judge Jones Renders Decision In the
Electric Light Injunction.
The second skirmish between the
city and certain property owners on
the injunction proceedings brought TO
prevent the erection of an electric
light plant in the rear of the City Hall,
resulted in victory for the petitioners.
When the temporary restraining order
was granted by the Court, City Solicit
tor Richards moved that certain por-
tions of the plaintiffs petition be
stricken out which motion was sus-
tanned. The City then entered a gen
eral demurrer to the petition, which
was overruled by Judge Jones on
Thursday. .. .. -. -t
The case will now go before the
Court to test the allegation that the
electric light plant would be nuis-
ance. 1t has been understood since
the suit was first brought that either
side, in the event of being defeated,
would carry it up to the Supreme
Court. No one can tell how much time
this will consume and meanwhile the
city will be compelled to go without
adequate lighting, though the money
is ready for the enlargement of the
plant
There is growing feeling that the
plant should be taken away from the
City Hall and located on the Ice Har-
Dor lot near the railroad tracks. If the
title to this property is good enough
for the U. s. government it ought to
be good enough for the citv.

Patent Applied For.

Apropos of Elmer E. Vance's 2otl
century production, patent Applied
For" which Manager Harry Nye has
been SO fortunate as to secure for
Tuesday, March 1st we give The fol
lowing partial story of the play: An
old man who has spent over half life
time in unsuccessful attempts to in
| vent some highly meritorious devices,
or machines, which would hand his
name down to posterity along with
Franklin, Morse, Howe, Edison and
such benefactors of mankind, at last is
seized with an inspiration, and per-
fects the dream of his long life-an
electric horseless carriage. He dies at
the very instant of the realizat ton OF
his fondest hopes. After his death a
scheming adventurer gets hold OF the
pateut-rights papers and claims the
invention. The dead inventors daugh-
ter and her sweetheart are determined
to get possession of the papers. Their
struggles and final snccess constitute
the action Of the piece. A horseless
carriage is really brought on the stage
in the first act and put in operation.
Another is the great storm scene.
First is seen in panoramic beauty the
departure of a magnificent steamship
from the shore. Then q storm comes
up; the clouds are banked, and from
out their inky crests flash tongues of
angry lightning. The waters are
dashed into whitecapped noun tains by
the fury of the tempest. The ships
sales are rent in shreds and fly out at
the mercy of the winds and waves.
The deck reels until it almost falls
over into the auditorium. The whistl-
ing OF the wind, the surging of the
disabled steamer, and the deed of
herosm that follows the scene appeals
strongly to every lover of the vivid
and sensational drama. The comedy
in the play is said to be decidedly good
and that there is not dull moment
from beginning to end. es t- sgD
Beatrice, surnamed "The Wonder
full" enacts the star part, which is
said to fit the charming little lady even
better than her old part of Jim Har,,

MINERS CONVENTION, !.
~ -si
Differences Between Ohio and Penn

pending the scale committees report.
From . public point of view every
thing in and about the convention ap-
peared calm. but in the secrecy Of the
scale committee chamber the old wal
between operators Of the Ohio and
Pennsylvania fields was fierceiy raging
Early in the session Of the committee
the question Of hours Of labor was
thoroughly gone over. Representatives
Of the workmen favored an eight hour
day, but their principal contention was
for q uniform day, in place Of the vary
ing hours now established in the differ
ent states. The Operations were willing
to meet them half way. and 1t is UNDER
stood a uniform working day of nine
hours will be recommended to the con-
vention.
The knotty problem of state differ
entails was then taken up. This
brought Ohio and Pennsylvania oper-
ators together with a crash. In order
to allow them full swing the regular
committee took recess until evening.
The Ohio and Pennsylvania operators
then went into session by themselves.
The issue between these two states Is
of years standing. Ohio operators have
hitherto succeeded In securing a rate
Of five to ten cents per ton below the
Pennsylvania scale. while it is claimed
by the Pennsylvania people that Ohio
operators obtain rs to 80 cents more
per ton for their output. The fight to
remove the difference on one side ana
to retain on the other is therefore a
bitter one.
1t is probable that the scale commit.
tee will be unable to agree on all mat
tiers before them and will make their
troubles known to the full convention,
asking for further instruction.

: Washington, Jan. 2o.-The first Of
fetal reception of the present admin

last evening. The receiving party con-
sisted of the president and Mrs Nc
Kinley, the vice president and Mrs.
Hobart and the members and ladies of
the cabinet. All of these We're present
except Secretary Alger who was still
too Ill to venture out, and Mrs. Bliss
and Mrs. Long, each Of whom was rep
resented by her daughter. When the
house party entered from the upper
hall 1t was noted that Mrs. Mckinley
was leaning on the arm of the presi-
dent, reversing the usual rule by which
the president escorts the wife of the
vice president and the latter the mis-
tress Of the White House.
The reception Of the diplomatic corps
came Esst. Sir Julian Pauncefote, as
the dean of the corps, led the way, but
did not, as Is customary, remain to pre-
sent his colleagues to the president.
The whole party from the British en-
bassy continued through to the east
room and left the White House almost
Immediately. Practically all of the
diplomatic corps were present, includ-

II was taken down with the Grip and
was sick in bed three weeks, and 1t left
me in bad condition. Ii caused heart
trouble, and oh? my head felt SO bad, such
dull, cloudy feeling in it all the time.
Ny appetite was very poor, and did not
sleep well. l was tired all the time.
Well, just dragged around and did my
work, but would have dizzy spells. and
such trembling in my limbs that could
scarcely stand or hold anything in my
hands without dropping it. Finally was
taken down sick in bed, and was very
sick. Tho doctor told my folks that
could not live, but fingered along seven
weeks. Then got so l could sit up, but
could not do any work, and my appetite
was poor, and could not sleep, and did
not sleep any for ten days and nights. O,
! got so nervous conld not lie still, and
finally told my husband to go to the
drug store and get bottle Of Dr. Greene's
Ncrvura blood and nerve remedy. After
taking the second dose l went TO sleep,
and slept for hours, the first had slept for
ten days. l continued the Neryura until 1
had taken six bottles, and have not lost a
nights sleep since, can eat well, and have
no signs of tho returns of the dis
case"
Despair no longer. Take Dr. Greene's
