Important Opinion by Judge Little.
He Says The Law will Lay lis Hand Up;n a
Fraudulent Scheme 10 Deprive
Wife OF Her Dover.

In an interesting and important rul-
ing Judge Little, of Bloomsbury, Fri
day made the following order in the
case of Sigle VS.. Seigley After making
the rule absolute Kit is ordered that
an issue be framed to try before jury
the following questions of fact: Ist,
whether or not, the note was execut-
ed by Jacob Seigley, and by MIN and
John Slgle used for the purpose of de
priving Sarah Seigley out of any pres
ent or prospective interest she had in
her husbands property. and. What
amount, if any, was due John Sgle
upon the said note, at the time Of its
execution John Sigle to be the
plaintiff in the issue anc Sarah Selgley
the defendant, the note to stand as
for the declaration, to which the de-
fendant pleads "non assumpsit," and
upon which plea the defendan, therein
shall be permitted to introduce evi.
dence tending to establish the alleged
wrongful use of said note, and the
fraudulent conduct charged; upon
which plea issue is joined. No other
pleadings required"
The rule to stay proceedings was
brought on the allegations of Sarah
Seigley, wife of the defendant, Jacob
Seigley, who contended that note of
$I2, 900 which was issued by her hus-
band and for which judgment was
entered, was a fraudulent scheme to
deprive her Of her dover OF married
rights in the property Of her husband,
whom she alleges made the note and
allowed the judgment to be entered
without full bona fde consideration.
Sigle, the plaintiff, contended that
he loaned Seigley sums of money
when the latter visited him at the
formers home in New York.
In his opinion opening the judg-
ment and staying the alleged illegal
proceedings the judge has this to say
regarding the rights of the wife: "The
law will lay Its hand upon fraudulent
scheme to deprive the wife of her
dover, or the husband of his estate by
the courtesy, and will open and stay
proceedings upon judgment confess.
ed without full bona fde considera-
ton, to be used to carry such scheme
into effect. t."-Wilkesbarre Leader.

A Severe Storm.

A very severe wind, rain and nail
storm, accompanied by glaring flashes
of lightning, swept over Bloomsburg
shortly after the noon hour yesterday.
Beside heavy rain, hail stones as
large as hickory nuts, fell for fully 20
minutes, stripping apple trees of their
fruit, and doing considerable damage
to the corn crop. The streets in
many sections of the town, during the
progress OF the storm, m,were completely
inundated, and a boat could easily
have been foated. The gardeners
and truckers, hereabouts, suffered
heavy losses, the vegetables being
washed out by the roots.
B. P. Vannatta's residence on East
Fourth street, was damaged by reason
of bolt of lightning having descend

P0STOFFICE PILFER Err.
j. DUNN ARRESTED AT OATAWIsSA
ON MONDAY.
He is Held on Suspicion Of Being implicated
In the Robbery Of the Postoftce at That
Piace-Turned Over 10 U. S.
Marshal.

The following appeared In Mon.
days Sunbury Daily.
"a man by the name of J. Dunn
was arrested by Constable ID. f.
Fagely, at Catawissa, Monday morn.
ing. He is neld on suspicion of be-
ing implicated with the robbing of the
postoffice at that place on the night OF
March 22d last.
The robbery was very bold one
and caused considerable excitement
in that vicinity at the time. BY break
ing the panels of the back door an
entrance was easily effected to the Of
fee. Once inside the robbers had
everything their own way, as the COM
bination on the large safe was out of
order and could not be locked. The
money and valuables were deposited
in the drawers of an inside compart-
ment. which were easily opened with
a chisel. The drawers and envelopes
containing the money orders, import
ant papers were taken into the yard
in the rear of the Office where they
were pilfered. After helping them
selves to the stamps and money the
remainder were torn up and scattered
about.
Before or after completing their
work in the yard they retired to the
office again to hunt for plunder The
mail in the private boxes was scatter
ed in confusion on the floor, and draw
ers of the desk were ransacked and
about sixty dollars in money and
stamps were taken.
A number of the tools were left be-
hind but furnished no clue for the
authorities to work on. About a week
ago several papers and envelopes were
found near Catawissa, and the author
tiles there started to work on the cars,
resulted IN the arrest of the man Dunn
Monday morning.
Constable Fagley claims to have
strong evidence but he will say moth
ing until the United States Marhal is
consulted. He arrived in Catawissa
from Wilkesbarre late Monday after,
noon.

Hurt in a COLLISION.

A collision, which might have re-
suited fatally, occurred short dis
tance above Espy, Monday evening.
The victims of the clash were c. R.
Nagle and lady friend, Miss Belle
Ruckle, and a young man by the
name of Karns. 1t appears that both
gentlemen were driving In the same
direction. When at point a short
distance above Espy, the latter, who
had hurried his horse on to a pretty
lively gait, not noticing anybody
ahead of him, ran squarely into Ma
gle's carriage, upsetting it and throw
ing the occupants out. Nagle was
badly cut about the face, and suffered
numerous bruises all over his body.
Miss Ruckle, with the exception of
being terrified with fright, escaped un-
injured. She was picked up from
under one of the horses just in the
nick Of time, as the animal would un-
doubtedly have stepped on her, had
her perilous position not been discov-
cred. Karns was the luckiest of the
number. Nagle's vehicle was badly
wrecked, two of its wheels being en-
tirely demolished Karns is probably
responsible for the accident, because
had he looked ahead, as he should
have done, he would have discovered
the other party, and beside this, he
was driving recklessly, which is always
conducive to accidents.

looks after it carefully, and will not
let it run all over town at night. But
if he has boy it is different. He is
turned loose at tender age to 90 tc
the mischief, And people wonder
where the army of deadbeats, loafers
and sots, come from. They are ger
minated from pure seeds, gathered
from our homes and sown broadcas
upon our streets and alleys. The boy
ought to be given an equal show with
the bull pup"

Long Breaths VIII Do It When 1t Has
 Just Begun.
 A cold, as nearly every intelligent person knows, is the result of a stop page somewhere of free circulation of the blood, to which one is first sensitive through a feeling of chill.
 So slight is the chill oftentimes that not until the preliminary sneeze comes is the victim aware he or she has been in the track or 9 draught or that the temperature has changed.
 The usual notion is that by going in- doors, changing to heavier clothing or retreating from the moist atmosphere the danger is ayerted. These precau- tfons are all well enough, but the first and most ef1cacious measures should be to restore the quick flow of warm blood through every vein and so by heat instantly eounteract the little chill.
 One, perhaps the simplest method of doing this, has been learned by men who stand on sentinel duty, who are obliged to suffer more or less exposure in winter. or who seorn the comforts in cold weather of oyercoat and um- brella
 Their method, when the temperature of the body or extremities is lower, or a sudden chill or quick change from warm to cold atmosphere is endured, is to inhale three CT four deep breaths, expand the lungs to th6Tr fullest ex- tent, holding every time the inhaled air as long as possible and then slowly let ting it forth through the nostrils.
 In doing this the imitation of the lungs sets the heart into such quick motion that the blood is driven with unusual force along it's channels and so runs out into the tiniest veins.
 This radiates a glow down to the toes and finger tips and sets up quick re- action against the chill The whole ef- feet is to stir the blood and set it in motion as from rapid exercise.
 Let any woman who goes to a dinner or ball in a low-neeked dress, where the rooms are chilly and her wraps are not accessible. try this little cure, or, better still this preventive against cold and enjoy it's merits.
 Let her try il when taking a cold Grive or when condemned, by accident, to sit in wet garments. Let the maxim of a victim to colds be always: Keep the blood in rapid action; use the deep held bTeaths when 8 first chill is felt.
