EQUITABLE APPOINTED TRUSTEE

CALDWELL HEIRS ARE DESTROYS
OF GETTING HOLD OF soME
MONEY ON DEPOSIT IN A LOCAL
BANK.
This was the day set by Chancellor
Nicholson for hearing argument on the
rule calling upon The Board OF Public
Education and the A. s. Reed and Bro
ther Company to show cause why pre-
llminary Injunction should not be grant
cd to restrain them from building the
new High School ait Delaware avenue
and Monroe street without taking out
building permit and paying 10 Building
Inspector Cassldy the foe prescribed by
law.
As the contract price nor the High
School is S45.O00 the fee for taking
out the permit for sudh building would
be about si47.
This payment the contractors attempt
ed to cvade. Their action was called to
the attention Of the Board OF Public Edu-
catlon and the contractors. and they
were given until May . to see that the
law was compiled with. The notices
were ignored and CITY Solicitor Conrad
instituted proceedings IN Chancery to
bring them to terms.
The contractors claimed that $4,000
was the actual cost OF the building,
while the building inspector demanded
the payment Of sii7. which would have
been the fee FOR a building costing siSs.-
COO. That was the contract price for the
new structure, and Building Inspector
Cassidy claimed that the actual cost OF
the building was the cost to the cwy.
There was a difference OF but 81 IN the
amount demanded and the amount Of
fered, The contractors Lett their check
with the building inspector. but he re-
turned II and notified the Board OF Edu-
cailcn that unless permit was taken
out before o'clock on Tuesday last he
would proceed according to law.
When the chancellor announced his
readiness to hear argument cn the ruie
this morning ne was told that II had been
agreed to postpone the matter until June

WHY WoOIEN ARE NERVOUS.


The frequent cases Of nervous prostra-
ton or utter collapse Of the nervous sys-
tenn under wllfcIhwomen ''go all topieces,"
as the saying is, have caused much
Thought and investigation ON the part Of
physicians.
Certain inorganic subs tances are well
known to cause various forms Of nervous
diseases which are readily traced to the
poisons producing them. Further re-
search leads to the belief that alum is a
prevailing cause Of so-called nervous
pros tration, for the symptoms it produces
on the nervous system after its absorp-
tfon into the blood are very remarkable
indeed. Experiments physlologically
made upon animals by Orila, Professors
Hans Mayer, Paul seim and others, show
that alum frequently produces no visible
symptoms for many days after its intro
duction into the body. Then follow loss
of appetite and other alimentary disturb
ances, and finally a serious prostration Of
the whole nervous system. The most
prominent physicians now believe that
nervous prostration" and many affec-
tions Of the nerves from which both
men and women suffer are caused by the
continued absorption Of alum into the
system.
1t IS probable that many medical men
are unaware Of the extent to which salts
Of alumina may be introduced into the
body, being under the impression that the
use OF alum in bread IS prohibited. Alum,
however, is Still used surreptitiously to
some extent to whiten bread, and very
largely in making cheap kinds of baking
powder. In families where baking pow
der is generally used great care should
be exercised to procure only those brands
made from cream Of tartar. The alum
powders may generally be distinguished
by the lower price at which they are
sold.-British Medical News.
