FIXING TO CARE FOR INSANE
violent Patient at the Hospital Calls
Attention to Lack of
Facilities.

An inmate OF the county hospital has
been so wildly demented for more than a
week that it has been necessary to keep
him strapped in bed and the cords have
lacerated his wrists despite the most Wig
liant efforts Of the attendants. AS a result,
at last nights meeting of the Board of
Commissioners, Connolly put through
a motion to have the proper committee ad-
vertise for bids on supplying the jail and
the hospital with either the paddings for
a cell or a padded cell complete.
On behalf Of Rosa E.. Griswell, G. w.
DeLamatre appealed to the board to appoint
some one to act in County Judge vinson-
haler's place in hearing the proceedings in
the matter of the John L. Miles estate.
Judge V~insonhaler has written his APP
prevail on the request, as he had acted as
attorney for Andrew Miles, executor, before
being elected Judge. The petitioner has
two claims against the estate which amount
to $4,686 and which were, she afirms, al
lowed while Irving F. Baxter was on the
county bench. but never paid.
The board decided to order two carloads
Of rock for culvert work.
After adjourning tonight as a board Of
equalization the commissioners will imme.
diately convene as a board Of commits.

AND AUGUST.

The extra ordinary variable spring and
early summer weather Of the present year
has been the cause Of a vast amount OF
sickness In every part Of our country,
Strong men and women have been victims;
the weak, rundown and siokly have suffered
intensely. and many families now mourn
the loss OF near and dear ones.
The nervous, weak, rundown and debill-
tated should now devote their best energies
and attention to health building, so as to
enable them to withstand the enervating
effects OF the approaching hot weather
The use OF Paine's Celery Compound will
soon bring a return OF true physical
strength; the nerves will be fed and braced;
the blood viii be made purer and richer;
digestion will be corrected. and sweet. re-
f~reshing sleep will take the place OF insom-
MIA and irritability.
Paine's Celery Compound is doing a mar
velous work for the sick and suffering at
this time. 1t is the only preparation that
possesses value and virtue for recruiting
the strength and spent energies of weakly
and sick people in summer time. The
trial Of one bottle, will give you happy re-
suits.

SYMPATHY PLEA FOR AMES
Counsel Asks Mercy for Minneapolis
Police superintendent in the
Bribery Case.

MINNEAPOLIS, July 7.-Half of the
counts for the defense had included in
their arguments a plea for merciful CON
alteration and the wife and the little boy
Of the defendant had been introduced in
the scene with an evident attempt at dra-
matte effect, when the bribery case OF Po-
lice Superintendent m was tonight COM
mitted to the jury. After two hours the
panel informed Judge Simpson that no
agreement had been reached and the court
announced that no report would be ac-
cepted till tomorrow morning.
The plea for mercy was a surprise. The
police superintendent in his testimony had
disclaimed responsibility for the conduct
OF the force. declaring that his brother. as
mayor, was the executive head OF the de.
partrnent and the absolute denials OF all
completely in the bribery and corruption
pool had aroused an expectation that the
defense would contend complete innocence
to the end.

tinuing,s the attorney explained that his
computation was based on the $1,000 900
selling price reported by Mr.. Webster, and
on the latter's previous statement that
two-thirds the company's property Is in
Douglas county. He proposed that the
valuation Of the company in Douglas county
be taken as two-thlrds OF the 81, 900, 900, or
1856, sos. which, divided by six, would make
the assessed valuation $111, Ill.
Action of EqualIzers.
O'Keefe moved to make the assessment
500, 900 even, but no one seconded the mo-
tion. Connolly figured that 1t might be fair
to assess the company as having one-half
its $1,000 900 value IN this county, making
the assessed valuation one-sixth OF $500, 900,
or $50, 1888, but he moved to make It 800, 900
anyhow. This motion also was lost and
then Hofeldt moved the adoption Of the
original Connolly figure, $50, 1888. Harte sec
onded the motion and 1t carried with only
0'Keefe voicing an audible nay.
Asked afterward what he had to say, Mr..
Webster answered: why, what more can
l say?" Asked what he proposed to do, his
reply was: TITS never wise to tell before
