The Biggy Divorce

In the divorce suit of Bridget Biggy
against her husband Frank Biggy
Judge Allen yesterday ordered a de-
cree in her favor on the ground of ex-
treme cruelty, and awarded her the Gus
tody Of the child. These people were
married in 1881, the woman possessing
about $4,000. with which they acquired
20 acres of land in this county. AL
though Biggy denied this at the time of
the trial and sought to prove that the
purchase money was his own, the court
disbelieved him and ordered that the
title in it be vested in Mrs. Biggy. They
had saloon also, the ownership of
which they disputed. This Judge Allen
decided to be community property.

VEXATIOUS INCIDENT
A Deputy Sheriff Is One of the Comp
ton Jurors


If Charles Compton is convicted of the
crime of forging the signature of Mr..
Greene of Cincinnati to a deed and OBJ
tanning money from the Columbia Saw
ings bank by such means. of which there
seems to be but very little doubt. as the
testimony for the people piles in, it is
possible that something may be at
tempted on the part of the defendant to
have the verdict of the jury set aside.
r. A. Brown Is a resident of this city,
dwelling at 916 Bartlett street. He has
for some time sought to obtain employ
ment in the sheriffs office. While the
grand jury was in session the deputy
sheriff who guarded the door of their
celebrating hall was discharged for
having given way to'drink upon several
occasions after the close of his days la
bors. Brown secured this job, his ap-
pointment as deputy sheriff being re-
corded in the office of the board of su-
pervisors on the 9th of January. 1t has
not been revoked.
After Deputy Sheriff Brown had acted
as herder to the grand Jury for several
days Deputy District Attorney George
M Holton informed Sheriff uBrr that
the county was not liable for the pay of
any deputy sheriffs except those speci-
fically named in the county government
act of 1897, and that he would personally
have to remunerate such of his ap-
pontees as he selected for the purpose of
acting as grand jury bailiffs.
When the sheriff learned this he with
drew Brown from the grand jury door
and placed one of his regular deputies on
guard. but Browns appointment was not
Cancelled, and is in effect today. It Is
said that at the time that Brown was
acting as a sentinel to protect the. ap-
proaches to the grand jury room, the at
tempted bribery of Petit Juror Long
fellow by F. r. Nicholson, in order to in
fiuence his verdict in the former Comp
ton trial, was under investigation. 1t
is not likely that this would cut much
figure in the case, inasmuch as the dep
uty probably overheard nothing of the
matter under discussion, were it not that
desperate efforts of one kind or another
will be as they have been, attempted to
prevent Compton from reaching the
penitentiary If this can be encom-
passed.
The regular panels of Departments one
and five having become exhausted in
the selection Of jury for the Compton
trial without completing it, a special
venire for ten extra jurors was ordered
issued by Judge Smith and placed In the
hands of Sheriff Burr for personal sery-
uce. One Of the ten men selected by him

Every once in a while some ad-
venturous RrOnaut makes a balloon
ascension, gets entangled with a
cyclone and has an abrupt descent.
The building of aerial vehicles which
are intended to travel through the
"blue empyrean" comfortably and
dangerless has long been the dream
not only of irrational and chimeri-
cal people, but of really scientific
minds. Experience, however,
teaches us one fact, namely, that it
needs no lofty flights to grasp the
fact that Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters will relieve surely and speedily,
billiousuess, whether chronic or

this standard medicine in cases of

Advertising is the most useful of
all the tools of business, but it has
a razor edge, and the man who
handles it carelesslY is sure to wish
he hadn't. The mere fact that a
man advertises is by no means an
insurance of business success. He
must give constant, careful thought
to the subject. 1t is the only part
of his business which will not run
itself. You can get any other de
partment in the business down to
such a system that it will require
very little thought, but the sue
cessful advertiser must be always
alert and must never take his hand

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is caused by con
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of
the mucous lining OF the eustachian
tube. When this tube is inhamed
you have a rumblirg sound or inn
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
DESTROYED forever; nine cases out Of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
