Oncns the November Term.

Judge Green Goes on the Bench md
Opens the November Term.
Judge Green reconvened the November
term of the district court yesterday, the first
case taken UP being that Of w. L. Whitney
against the Globe Publishing company, upon
the petition OF Intervention of the American
Prees association which seeks to have its
claim for plate matter supplied the defunct
evening paper allowed.
When everything was ready for hearing
the suit of j. M Klmer against d. w. and
W. F. Gallaher, the attorney for the plain
tiff notified the court that settlement had
been reached and that the defendants had
agreed to a judgment for a stipulated
amount. The suit was over a note and mort
gage which the defendants claimed in their
answer was secured by Kilmer from their
parents B. II. Gallaher and wife, when the
latter were so infirm and feeble that they
were not competent to transact any busi-
nees of such a nature. The defense was also
made that the note was usurious because it
included charges calculated to raise the in
terest to more than the legal rate. The
parties to the suit were from Logan, and
number of persons from that town were
in attendance as witnesses.
The first case set for trial this morning
s that of the Interstate Commercial COM
pany against E. w. Nash. which is one Of

which owns the piece of ground in contro-
versy at Sixteenth avenue and Sixth street.
Both Hannah and Reed when seen on their
return said that the whole question of the
rights of the two companies on that strip of
ground was in ''statu quo," and that so far
neither company had secured contract
from the railway company Beyond this
statement they both said they had nothing
further to make public regarding the con-
troversy between their company and the old
company.
General Manager Dimmock of the old COM
pany said his company had contract with
the railway company from Vice President

This contract, he said, would stand and the
tracks laid by his company Sunday night
would stay where they were. The papers in
the contract, Mr.. Dimmock said had been
referred back to st. Joseph for readjustment
of radiuses of curves and that there would
be no trouble in both companies laying their
tracks over the strip of ground. "Our
tracks" said Mr.. Dmmock Twill be put
down in permanent condition just as soon
as the injunction suit is disposed Of"

Thaddeus j. Foley, president and general
manager of the Peru Plow and Implement
company, has another large suit in the dis
trict court on his hands in connection with
the settlement of the estate of his late part
ner, John NJ. Enlow of Cherry county, Ne
braska. The plaintiffs in this suit are A.
H. Davis, an attorney of North Platte, and

and Sims were employed by the heirs Of
Enlow last August to bring a suit In the
district court here for 100000 against Foley
on the grounds of alleged Misrepresentation
by him when settling his partners estate
The plaintiffs claim in their petition that at
the time suit was commenced on behalf
of the heirs an agreement was entered into
between them that they, the attorneys, were
to receive half of whatever amount should
be recovered as a result of the action,
whether by compromise or judgment. and
that Foley was duly notified OF such ar
rangement.
Subsequently Foley compromised with six
of the heirs, paying them, as it was alleged
in the stipulation of settlement, 500 apiece.
In their petition Davis and Sims allege
that they are advised that the actual amount
paid by Foley to their former clients was
largely in excess of 800, but what the actual
amount was they have no means of ascer-
tanning. AS they are unable to collect their
share from their clients they bring suit
against Foley for $1,000.
They also ask the court to give them

Foley with their clients, he agreed orally

HEARTp1sEAsE.
sone Facts Regarding the Rapid In.
crease of Icarf Trouble.

crease of Heart Trouble.
Heart trouble. at least among the
Americans, is certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the exc
element and worry Of American BUSH
ness life, 1t is more often the result Of
weak stomachs, or poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable; but
not one case in hundred OF heart trou-
bic is organic.
The close relation between heart trou-
BILE and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by the same
great nerves. the sympathetic and
pneumogastric.
In another way, also, the heart is at
fected by the form Of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food. There Is a
feeling OF oppression and heaviness in
the chest caused by pressure of the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs,
interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making 1t thin and watery, which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation of
food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals OF some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which may
be found at most drug stores, and
which contain valuable, harmless diges-
tive elements in pleasant, convenient
form.
1t is safe to say that the regular per-
sistent use of stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.

FALSE CLUES.

William Weisbrod has identified til

William Weisbrod has identified the
shoe tracks on the river bank, alleged
to be those of the girl, as having been
made by his boy.
The real work on the case is being
done on two lines. The coroner is hav
ing the stomach analysed to discover if
death resulted from poison. The de-
tectives are trying to find the persons
who We're with the girl Saturday, Sat
urday night and Sunday morning.
The coroner resents the interference
of the newspapers i'll the case. The
evidence taken by his jury on Tuesday
was almost exclusively with reference
to the story of the two men and
woman sitting in the bottom of a boat
which was eliminated on Wednesday,
morning. The jury held no inquest last
night and will resume when something
tangible appears.
Mrs. Nettie Latham, who lives near
the electric light plant, says she saw a
young woman of Miss Schofields de-
scription in the neighborhood, crossing
the street car tracks toward the river,
at 1880 on Saturday morning. MIR.
Latham saw the same person.
The authorities can not understand
why the persons with whom the girl
was Saturday. Saturday night and
Sunday morning do not appear If they
are innocent.

mother of the girl was Frustrated by
the death of her daughter and was
unable TO come to Des Moines with the
father Monday 1t was suggested by
the coroner that he have the mother
examined at her home in Macksburg.
This Is for the purpose of finding OUT
what the young woman said last. The
mother, so far as known, is the last.
person TO whom the girl talked.
Many are coming TO believe that the
girl committed suicide. They insist that

herself. They suggest that she may
