A Misunderstood CONTRACT.

Mrs. Redan Thought She Could BOr-
row $1,000 on a $4,000 Life Insur-
ance Policy.
In yesterdays Morning News appeared
an article descriptive of an attempt made
by Mrs. Annie Redan to recover certain
diamonds, which she claimed belonged to
her, from the Mutual Reserve Fund Life
Association or its agent here. Capt. W
NJ. Tumlin
The decision in the case was based on
Judge Norwood's agreement with the
legal contention of the defendant, that as
the policy was made payable to Mrs Re
dan in the event of the death of her hus-
band, who was the holder of the policy,
and as she was the sole beneficiary under
lis terms, she could apply her money to
the payment of the premiums and in this
manner become liable for the debts of
the husband.
1t transpired from the evidence that was
given in che case that there was consid-
cradle diversity of opinion or recollection
as to the details of the contract upon
which the policy of insurance was based.
Mrs. Redan and her husband testified for
instance, that when the policy was taken
out she was assured that Immediately
after its issue she would be entitled to
borrow 81 000 from the company upon il,
and that it was with this understanding
that she agreed to give up her jewels for
the payment of the first premium
Capt Tumln denied that any such
agreement with the plaintiff had ever
been made. 1t was a straightout transac-
ton, he said, The jewels having been ac-
cepted by him and the amount due the
Company paid out Of his own pocket.
The evidence showed that after the pol
icy had been issued Mrs. Redan made the
attempt to borrow from the company the
sum Of $1,000, which she had understood
she was to be allowed to co, and was
promptly turned down. Then she wanted
back her jewels. The suit in trover to re-
cover them was brought in last October,
but only came to trial on Wednesday. 1t
was then decided AGAINST her.

Falling Hair Stoned.

Badness follows falling hair, falling
hair follows dandruff, and dandruff is the
result of germ digging it's way into the
scalp to the root Of the hair, where it
saps the vitality of the hair. To destroy
that germ is to prevent as we'll as to cure
dandruff, falling hair, and, lastly, bald
ness. There is only one preparation
known to do that-Newb bros Herpiclde,
an entirely new, scientific discovery.
Wherever it has been tried it has proven
wonderfully successful. 1t can't be 9th.
erwise, because it utterly DESTROYS the
dandruff germ. "You destroy the cause,
you remove the effect" 1915

Aside from this, he said the grower
could not afford to get the latest tele.
graphic aud other advices regarding tn e
markets, whereas by an association do
ing this the expense to each member
would be nominal.
Mr.. Griffith was in favor OF an organ
izstion which would have the power to
compel the members to pick only 60 or
rs per cent of their crop in case informa-
ton should be received of over produce
tion.
Mr.. White stated that he had assur.
ances that the Oregon and California hop
organizations desired to work in uniso n
with the organizations of Yakima and
this state.
About this time A. B. Weed appeared
and an informal recess was taken and
the members discussed the various mat
tiers in groups Mr. Weed was strongly
opposed TO the pooling provision and ex
pressed himself very decidedly on the
question. Several growers left the hall
and finally an adjournment was taken
without any action on the bylaws or ar
rangement for further meetings. Those
who have been most energetic in trying
to secure an organization express them
selves to the effect that the Yakima Hop
Growers Cooperative and Protective
Association is practically no more.

State Federation of wo mans Clubs.

The state federation of Woman's clubs
will hold sessions in the Methodist
church May Goth. 30th and 3lst. 1t will
be the fourth annual gathering and it
was hoped that the meetings could
be held in the new opera house,
but owing to that building being uncom-
pleted and that the biannual sessions of
the national federation, to which dele.
gates will be chosen, will convene in
Milwaukee the first week in June, the
dates OF the state convention were
changed as stated. There are fifty-eight
clubs in Washington and each one is
expected to send two delegates. which
with the officers and others interested,
will make quite gathering. The Meth
odist church will be handsomely deco
rated for the occasion.

Fair Commissioners Want Salaries.

The holding Of fair this year is prob
lematical. The Commercial club secured
guarantee of $500 to assure the pay
ment of premiums, in case the money
now on hand and the receipts OF the fair
were not ample to meet all expenses, but
the fair commissioners show no willing
ness to go ahead on this baeis and in
sist that the guarantee shall apply to all
fixed charges in case OF shortage.
These fixed charges" so called. are on
the basis OF last years expenses, out
side of new buildings. and include sal
AIRY OF S40O for President Baxter, who is
also the superintendent Of the grounds;
5000 for the secretary's office; 800 for
the treasurer, travelling expenses, ETC.
After a meeting OF the fair commissioners
and the representatives of the CONNER
cial club, an adjournment was taken I'M
til the 14th inst, in order to allow those
who made the guarantee to conform to
the requirements Of the commission.
Many guarantors were willing to abide
by any terms that would secure the
holding OF fair but some of the signers
refused and as result the adjourned
meeting was not held, and no advance
has been made of late toward decision.

Washington, July 17-Sccretary
Hay called a cabinet council Monday
morning TO consider the Chinese sit
uatiOn. Few cabinet officers are In
the city, and the only attendants were
Secretaries Hay, Root, Long and Gage.
The council lasted for some time
and the situation was thoroughly dis
cusscd. In all probability the
president will come home with
in the next two or three davs

is reason TO believe that 5000 or TO-
600 troops will he gotten together az
rapidly as possible and hurried to
China. Some of these probably will
be taken from Cuba. If the situation
requires more congress will have to be
called together TO provide for them.
The report that Col. French. 2jth
infantry, was killed at Tien-Tsin, is
not understood at the war department
here. Officials state positively that
Col. French is not in China. There
is but one Col. French in TIE service,
and he commands the 22nd infantry,
two battalions of which are in the
Philippines, and the third one in this
On June 30, Col. French was
in New York on sick leave.
1t is probable that President Nc
Iinley will return from Canton as n
result Of the news received Monday
from Adm. Remey. The
dea of calling congress together in !
'xtra session is also being seriously |
as necessity to provide
men and money to meet the exigen-
lies of the case.
Word was received at the white
louse Monday afternoon to the effect
hat President Mckinley will arrive
ere some time Tuesday, probably in

Monday. Early in the day came Adm.
Remey's dispatch conveying the i'll
tidings from Tien-Tsin and for the
time obscured the Peking situation.
The 9th infantry is one of the crack
regiments in the world, and the ter
rible story of fatality in its ranks
aroused spirit of fierce Indignation.
and demand for vengeance among
the officers Of the army and navy here
that could not be repressd.
There was n disposition at first in
the war department TO pluck some
hope from Adm. Remey's statement
that the death of Liscum, and. in fact.
the whole fight at Tien-Tsin, WIS
nothing more than report" This
hope was dashed by the receipt Of the
dispatch from a correspondent writ
ten directly on the battlefield. and in
a place where the facts Of the case
must come under his eye. Secretary
Hay called special cabinet meeting
to discuss the situation. lie was only
able TO gather up four members, but
fortunately these included Secretar-
les Long and Root. There was talk
Of an extra session of congress, and
discussion of further reinforcing our
trops in the Philippines. 1t was also
that communication had
been had with President Mckinley at
Canton. There was just a grain of
comfort in dispatch from Consul
zen. Goodnow at Shanghai. stating
hat he had nothing new 10 report.
from this IL was gathered that Good
low knows nothing of the reported
all of the legations. though that re-
'ort had come from Shanghai.
