DR.. Bennett Resigns DIR. Parsons APP
pointed Raiload Surgeon.

1t gives The Leader pleasure to
note an honor. worthily conferred
upon our young townsman and
doctor of medicine, DR.. Ira L.
Parsons.
Ever since the railroad first
made it's way through the pine
forests of Lincoln county and the
iron wheels, cruel at times, began
to ieopardize the life and limb of
the unwary or careless, DR.. j.
w. Bennett has faithfully served
as railroad-surgeon for the illinois
Central, and has continued up to
good old age in the practice of
the profession he has ever honor
ed.
Five years ago Ira L. Parsons,
one of Lincoln's own sons, who
has been a resident of Brookhaven
since 8 years of age, graduated in
the medical department of Tulane
University, and aftel gaining
much of practical experience as
inferno in the hospital at Vicks-
burg, became associated with DR..
Bennett in the prosecution of his
profession. For three years past
DR.. Parsons has served as assistant
surgeon, and has, in fact, relieved
DR.. Bennett of the greater part of
the demands made upon him by
this office. So satisfactory and eff
cient have been the services of
both DR.. Bennett and his assist
ant, that since the former has
seen fit to resign, it is eminently
proper and fitting that his mantle
should fall upon the younger and
stronger shoulders of DR.. Par
sons. 1t is an honor worthily be.
slowed and won; and is credit
not only to DR.. Parsons himself
but to DR.. Bennett, his parents
and the community that holds a

BROWN GOUNIY'S
Old COURTHOUSE
Reversion Of Title and 10 Whom

AS Brown county S elegantneW court
shouse completion and the Gay
day draws nearer when, with our
County officials, it will be out of the
@Dld house into the new, the question
comes up frequently as to what be-
of the old building and lots.
lit is generally supposed the property
reverts to the city, but the writer
heard the remark made some days
Since that the title reverts to John a.
HOulihan. An examination or the
Srecords shows that this is only par
atially true. i
\ When the city decided block seven,
North Aberdeen, the landupon which
1.-THE old courthouse stands, to the
County Of Brown, the deed contained
Ia lroviso to the effect that when the
coSNnty ceased to use it for court
8purposes the land with all it's APP
apurtenances should Immediately re-
vert to the city.
q Then the next question was as to
q what conditions might have been con-
] tanned in the deed to the city. The
q records disclose the fact that in order
Ito pass all of block w to the city
Seven different deedswere made. One
dated dated May H,%lss7, from
John A. Houlihan and wife and Chas.
Mccoy and wife conveyed Its y,
81 Is. ID, Is, IS, II and Is, conditioned
that the city should build and main
a city hall thereon and at any
u time the city should cease to use it
for such purpose the land should re-
/ vert to the g%rantors. This condition
4 made it impossible for the city to
j transfer it's title in that portion of.
block seven to the county, and about
a month later Mccoy and Houlihan
| made a quit claim deed to the city
\ conditioned that the land should re-
I vert to them whenever Brown county
d ceased to use block seven for court
& house purposes.
/ The other deeds which conveyed to
/ the city the remainder OF the block
were straight warranty deeds con-
1 yeying full title to the city. The
4 court house stands on lots to be own

THE LEADER OF The
FRENCH SOCIALISTS

M. Jaures is to-day the most prom
inent leader of the French Socialist
party, as well as one Of the most at
tractive figures in parliamentary life.
By general consent he is not far from
being foremost among the great
political orators of France, and for
years a speech by Jaures has always
been sure to draw large crowds to the
Palais Bourbon, or to the popular
meetings where he often makes him
self heard for the one cause that is
dear to him.
Although belonging to a party in
the Chamber that counts fewer than
fifty members, he was this very year
elected to the vice-presidency of the
Chamber, an honor that is usually
bestowed only on the most represen-
tative members of the Republican
majority. In two sensational speeches
he recently challenged the attention
of the world by bringing up two Of
the most acute and delicate questions
, in French politics, the question of
| Alsace Lorraine and the Dreyfus
! affair. .
He is at the present time the
Frenchman outside ofthe administra.
tion whose personality is the most
| striking and whose influence is the
most powerful. His very career
challenges attention and commands
respect, for it shows the struggles OF
a man against the interests of his
class to promote a social order more
in accord with his notions of justice,
and it shows the elevation Of a mind
which has worked it's way toward a
higher ideal Of life.-From a sketch
Of ''Jaures, the Present Leader OF
French Socialism" by::Othon Guerlac.

Reviews for August.

HOSPITALS SHOULD
FURNISH AMBULANCEES
Marshall County Journal.

From Marshall County Journal.
THE ABEDEEN DEMoCRATin it's last
issue makes a kick for a hospital ann
bulance for that city and asks its
readers: why would it not be a good
idea for the county commissioners 10
procure a suitable ambulance for use
at the county hospital and rent it to
private hospital when not needed by
the county? Or could not the city
and county join in the expense ofbuy-
ing an ambulance. If the city aud
county do no feel like mourning the
expense, could not some of our
wealthy citizens be induced to sub
scribe for a fund for that purpose"
And we add. Why don't the hospitals
provide the conveyance themselves?
1t would seem that a hospital in an
to-date city the size Of Aberdeen
should not be without a vehicle Of
this character.
