ACOUIT NINE. PAULMIER.
But Must Pay Personal Damages to
NJ. Olivier.

New York, Dec. ga dispatch to the
Herald from Paris says:
Nine. Paulmier has been acquitted Of
the criminal charge of having wounded
NJ. Olivier, secretaire de Reduction Of
La Lanterne. but condemned to pay
fifteen thousand francs damages on the
civil charge of the material injury sus-
tanned by NJ. Olivier.
Nine. Paulmier touched the audience
deeply by her impassiOned references to
her daughter, for whose sake she had
taken the law into her hands when the
abominable article appeared in La Lam
terne rejecting on her honor.
As for the author, Henri TurOt, he
took all responsibility for the conse-
quences of his defamatOry article upon
himself and said he was going to try
to forget his remOrse by means of a
long exploring voyage.
Maitres Jeanneney. for NJ. Olivier;
Lombard, avocat general. for the gov
eminent, and Danet for Nine. Paulmier,
presented their cases in a measured
way, all equally reprOving NJ. TurOt, as
we'll as Nine Paulmier. but at the same
time finding a sort of moral excuse for
the latter The question really was one
of what amount OF damages ought to be
imposed, as in France the woman is
sure of acquittal under such circum-
stances as these.

WHEAT-Contrary to general expecta-

All the commission houses had heavy

Friday and they had considera BILE difficult

There was perfect scramble among bro

few moments hesitation at 69AH%sc the
bidding became more urgent than ever
and the advance which resulted carried
the May price to 7O1kc. Holders unloaded
at that price, and the market gradually
grew Duieter, holding steady at about fOc.
CORN-Corn was strong and very act

CRAZE STRIKES CUBA.
The Natives Insist on Kissing the
Americans Wherever Found.

Chicago. Dec. PA censored special
cable to the Tribune from Havana, says:
Rioting began at Monserrate last
night A battalion of Spanish troops
hurried from the barracks on the Prado
to Celiano street, the dividing line be-
tween Cuban and Spanish territory.
Order was restored, but in the firing
which occurred before the troops arriv-
ed an year old Cuban child was killed
by stray bullet.
Spanish territory in the new world is
now limited to a narrow strip of land
beween Havana harbor and Galiano
street. The flags of Cuba Libre and the
United States are waving within two
blocks of the Prado, a great boulevard
which runs through the center of Ha-
vana
Monserrate having been evacuated,
the place was alive with Cubans and
people from the United States. The
scene enacted at Cerro and Vedado last
week and at Jesus del Monte was re-
peated at MOnserrate. There was even
a greater demonstration, for Monser-
rate comes almost to the city. Some of
the men leaped across the dividing line
ana waved flags on the Spanish side.
Ine celebration which began on
Christmas night, yesterday reached it's
height. Crowds of men and women
waving Cuban and American flags and
carrying branches of trees paraded the
streets, shouting and singing.
Many Americans went over to see the
demonstration. They did not remain
long. Owing to the intense enthusiasts m
the populace insisted on kissing the
brave Americanos" whether they
Wantedt to be kissed or not
Several ARRAYS took place between
the Spanish residents and the Cubans.
A grocery keeper on Oquendo street re-
FUSED to put out the Cuban colors and
was beaten almost to death with sticks.
As evening came on, the demonstration
became noisier than ever as many of
the negroes parading were drunk and
greatly excited. The Americans became
fearful of another clash with the Span
ish troops like that which ushered in
Christmas day.
Francisco Luintezo, a Spanish voIun-
teer, patrolling the street near the
Prado, was fired at from a house top
and killed. A Cuban was killed it an
other part of the city. Half a dozen Gu
bans and Spaniards were shot or stab
bed in ARRAY about the city.
There was a fight between Cubans
and Spaniards in front of the United
States club at midnight. Several of the
participants were badly cut with ma
chetes. Many American soldiers who
were in town behaved so bOisterousiy
that Gen. Ludlow says he is sorry that
they were permitted to come into Ha-
vana, and in future none will be per
mittedy except on strictly military BUSH
ness.

DEATH OF W. P. EMERY.
Well Known Topekan Passes Away
The Funeral Tomorrow at 2 P. M.

W. P. Emery died this morning at his
home, 1911 Lane street, of pneumonia
The funeral will take place from the
residence tomorrow at 2 o'clock.
Mr. Emery was a lawyer and was
formerly connected with the Kansas
Loan and Trust company. After leav-
ing the trust company he turned his
attention to experiments in paving ma
terial He conceived the idea of making
blocks out of straw pulp and with a
chemical compound, which he never di-
vulged. he treated the straw pulp and
pressed it into paving bricks. Some of
the bricks were used in front of the city
building as an experiment, but were
found not to be impervious to water.
THE pavement was never a success.
Mr. Emery some years ago built and
operated a large natatorium on Tenth
street

Most Valuable.
CONSUMPTION CURED.
Pneumonia and Catarrl1 Cured
Quickly. A Few Proofs of
Cures Already Performed.

Wonders have been accomplished by
modern medicine. but the most wonder
full preparation yet offered is what is
known as sylvan Ozone' manufac.
tured by DR.. A. H. Keller, a promi-
nent specialist of Sioux Falls, S. D..
This remedy is new and entirely diff
ferent from any other being offered UNI
der any other name. For the treat
ment of dieases of the throat, chest
and lungs Sylvan Ozone is invalua-
BILE.
THE UNION presents herewith ex-
tracts from a private letter from a
brother publisher of this state which
demonstrates the action and value of
this new discovery. He says. il speak
ing of Sylvan Ozone and its results.
MY brother printer, was tall aud
slim: had raw, granuiated throat for
years: bled at lungs nearly every day,
coughing AMI raising continually; been
getting worse for seven years: began
using Sylvan Ozone last winter and
continued using il all summer; has no
cough now, raises very little and no
bleeding from the lungs: is getting
strong and healthy and is working
steadily at his trade. Before using
Sylvan Ozone he was only able to sit
around the house, growing gradually
worse.
Again. this same publisher tells of
the use of Sylvan Ozone in his own
family in the following words:
"My wife had c@tarrh for two years:
! bad throat, with palate raw and en-
larged; for over three months she
could not speak aloud: one months use
of Sylvan Ozone made her sound and
we'll"
He continues:
"My little girl ran rusty nail in
her foot over an inch. Two days use
of Ozone, and she was wearing her shoe
with as much comfort as ever"
| Ozone will cure consumption, or any
trouble of the throat, chest or lungs
Treatment is taken direct--by inhala
tion-and good eeultS are correspond
