Can Now 20 Ahead With It's
Long Suit.
JUDGE LINDSEY DECIDES
That Il Was the Proper Party 10
Bring the Action--
Court Notes
JUDGE LINDSEY DECIDES

Judge Lindsay rendered a decision to-
day in the matter heard by him a short
time ago in connection with the question
of the capacity of the Boston & Montana
company to maintain an action against
the Montana Ore Purchasing company
at the time the property OF the former
was in the hands of the receiver. he
overruled the plea and in so doing said:
1.-The court is asked to determine whether
at the time the suit was commenced the
plaintiff was, in contemplation of law,
capacitated to maintain the action. 1t
is commended that the roper party lain
tiff would have been the receiver there
fore appointed, who though not in pos
session, it is claimed was entitled to the
possession of the premises in question at
the time of the commencement OF this
action. 1t is conceded that the property
was then, whether rightfully or wrong
fully, in possession and under the con-
troll of the plaintiff. After a careful con
sideration of the subject l have arrived
at the conclusion that if the premises
had passed out of the hands of the Bos-
ton & Montana company into the pos
session Of the receiver when this action
was brought there would be sufficient
reason to sustain the plea in abatement.
It not SO appearing, the actual possessor
had, in my Judgment, a right to sue for
the wrongful taking and carrying away
Of property. Eve though considered but
q bailee, the person in possession has a
right to sue any wrongdoer who wrests
property from him;
THE court Is also presented with a
Showing to the effect thai the receivers
right to possession at the present time
is denied by the supreme court Of the
state, and he cannot therefore be con-
sidered as now having a right to main
tain this action: SO that to sustain the
plea in abatement here i%nterposed would
only be 10 the most technical consid-
Grafton and would answer no purpose;
nor would the court thereby find that ar
other than the plaintiff do now proceed
with the action and protest the rights in
volved. The plea is therefore over.

A MAN.
AT LEAST HIS WIFE SAYS HE IS
DIVORCE.

Annie Mosher began an action for d.
orce against Charles w. Mosher today
and in her complaint makes rather a
naughty accusation against the defend
ant. She alleges that the marriage Of
Mosher and herself was solemnized Sep
TENDER Is, 1891, and that prior thereto her
name was Ami Brown; that on the 5th
of October, 1897, he deserted her n COM
mitted adultery with one Mrs. Gill, also
known as Mrs. Woods, and has. since
September Is, 1898, lived in an adulter-
Gus state with the said Mrs. Gill in the
Morier block in this city.
Mrs. Mosher asks the court to give her
back her maiden name, $40 a month ali
mony and $500 for her attorneys.
Judge Lindsay heard today the testi-
mony in the matter of the order to show
cause why the Butte & Boston Mining
company should not be permitted to
make a servey of the underground work
ings of the Snohomish and Tramway lode
claims, and at it's conclusion granted the
request. The Montana Ore Purchasing
company, the defendant, did not put up
a hard battle to prevent the order from
being made.

who the good people of the Heidi

and even their regular preacher
failed to materialize. A great
crowd gathered as it had been
talked of for weeks, people poured
in from far and near. A bounte-
Gus dinner was spread for which
that section is famous. After
dinner Rev. G. 0. Turner, a

A grain of sand in the eye can
cause excruciating pain. A grain
of pepper in place of the grain of
sand intenslfies the torment. The
pain is not confined to the organs
affected. The whole body feels
the shock of that little irritating
particle. 1t is so when there is
any arrangement or disorder of
the delicate womanly organs.
The disorder may seem trivial
but the whole body feels it. The
nervous system is disordered.
There are fretfulness, irritability,
sullenness and depression of
of spirits. The general health of
woman depends on the local
health of the organs peculiarly
feminine. Remove the drains,
alterations, bearing down pains,
and other affections of woman,
and the whole body feels the
benefit. DR.. Pierce's Favorlte
