ON A CHARGE OF TREsPAss.
After n Long String of MisfOrtunes
Frank McMurray Is Arrested
for House Breaking.

A pathetic example Of what it means to
have a family and be without a home was
brought to light yesterday by the constable
from Justice Hawthorne's court in serving
a warrant on Frank McMurray for forcibly
entering and occupying a house without
the consent of the owner. Last fall McMur-
rays 5-year-old boy. who is an unusu-
ally pretty child. was run over by a train
his. leg amputated. This and other ickness
with the subsequent loss of work. and the
dozen and one pieces of hard luck which
always seem to come at such a time, made
1t impossible for McMurray to pay rent on
the little place he was living in at 1890
MCGEE. He had to leave. and having no.
where to shelter his family. forced an en-
trance to one of three or four tumbledown
houses out near Twenty-seventh and Broad
way. After he had lived there some time
the real estate agent in charge swore out
a warrant against him and yesterday he
and a man named Shoemaker, who had
taken possession Of the house next door,
were arrested,

A GREAT ORATOR.
Great Audiences Laugh and Cry
Within Thirty Seconds.

Rev. NJ. O.. Hilton, of Washington, says:
"Dr. r. c. Flower. of Boston, is the finest
lecturer of the modern platform. You Will
get more valuabl information from him in
one hour than from any other lecturer in
twenty hours. DR.. Flowers lectures con-
tinues this reverend gentleman. should be
heard or read by every man. woman and
child in the world. They will make every
person who hears them better. healthier
and happier. Morally considered. the doc
tors lectures are high toned and finished.
They are argumentative and logical to an
extreme, yet they abound with humor and
almost every utterance is a flash of wit.
He is irresistible in his pathetic appeals
and often his audience in half a minute
will change from hilarious laughter to the
demonstration of sobs and tears. DR.. Flow
er is the greatest word painter We have
ever heard, unless it be Colonel 1ngersoll.
and in this respect either will remind you
of the other. DIR. Flowers lecture to men
only. delivered in Odd Fellows hall last
evening. was the greatest Intellectual. ora
torical and moral effort ever heard in our
great city. Not a man present will ever
forget The beauty of speech. the humor and
pathos which formed his terrible climaxes
and which held breathless. except for
tears and laughter, that great audience Of
1000 men,"
DIR. Flower will lecture free. to women
only, at Coates opera house at 3 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon, and at s o'clock in
the evening to men only.

DERISlON AND sc0RN.
For Those Who Speak Against Pop
uIar Habits.

One hundred years ago, ministers and
laymen alike Were accustomed to use some
spirits as we'll as tobacco, and the one who
spoke disparagingly of either of the ia
nous nullifers of good intentions was sure
to bring down on himself derision and
scorn, but the hard, cold facts move along
in a most uncompromising way. and those
who persist in placing themselves in the
road are ground up with a more or less
degree of promptitude.
The same conditions to-day surround the
drug we know as coffee. The self-respect-
ing individual dislikes to hear ill reports
of his fayorite beverage. but that does not
alter the fact that the physical aches, ails
and miseries. of tens of thousands of good
people come from the little suspected coffee-
pot. Ten days to a month trial without
coffee and the use of Postum Food Coffee
in its place will prove the facts and good
bounding health is well worth the exDeri-
ment., Postum well brewed is delicious and
gives one the exact kind of food needed to
rebuild the body in a. most perfect manner.

Her marriage, October %, 1894, at mid
night. in Indianapolis. to Charles Coghlan,
the actor. caused much talk. A year later
Miss Beveridge secured a divorce and re-
suEed her maiden name.
Miss Beveridge was only is at the time of
her marriage. Coghlan was 80. She had
made several unsuccessful ventures upon
the stage before joining the Coghlan COM
pany. After her divorce she took up sculp-
ture, at which she mad made something
of a success before she became stage
struck.
Young Blaine is nearly 80 years old. He
has never shown any marked aptitude for
work; he was blackballed by one or two
clubs in Washington. His treatment of his
wife added to his ~unpopularity. He refused
TO study when at school and was expelled
from several institutions. Later he tried
newspaper work in Pittsburg. He was not
a brilliant success and he took up the study
of law, which he afterward dropped.

TWO COMPANIES AGAINST ONE.

u ~
Leads to Costly but Unsntis-
actor Litigation.
During several days Judge Henry. of
the circuit court, has been listening to
evidence and arguments in a three cor
nered lawsuit by the Western Meat Re-
frigerator Express Company, the United
States Equipment Company and the Mis-
souri, Car and Foundry Company. ]. l..
Brown was president and a large stock
holder in both the refrigerator and equip
ment companies. The equipment company
made a contract with the foundry COM
pany for 500 cars. part of which were de-
livered, but not paid for. Then the refrig-
orator company sued the equipment COM
pany and got a large judgment against it
and had a receiver appointed for it. The
receiver. of course, took charge of the
cars made by the foundry company which
were not paid for. The foundry company
sued both the other companies. claiming
that they were practically one and the
same and that they were working togeth-
er to cheat the foundry company out of
the cars.
Judge Henry took practically the same
view of it yesterday. He ordered the re-
ceiver discharged and declared that the
two companies were trying to cheat the
foundry company, but he said the matter
ought to be settled in Kansas, where the
contracts were made, SO he dismissed the
suit.

DEATH QUENCHEs A THIRST.
SalOonkeeper sues the Heirs of James
Carrigan to Collect q
Whisky Bill,

A lawsuit over a dead mans whisky bill
was on trial all day yesterday in the pro-
bate court before Judge Guinotte. A. G..
Belinder was the s~aloonkeeper who claimed
that when James Carrigan died recently
he owed him a bill of s11s for money loaned
him.. The widow and daughters of Mr.. Car
rigan claimed that the bill was not for
money loaned. but was for whisky, and
was therefore uncollectible under the laws
of this state. Belinder sued to collect it.
The widow and a daughter of Mr.. Carri-
gan testified yesterday that Belinder told
them it was for whisky. The jury could not
agree on a verdict last night with such
conflicting testimony before it.
