Cuban DiarrhOea.

U. 8. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what this
disease is, and that ordinary remedies
have little more effect than SO much
water. Cuban diarrhoea is almost as
severe and dangerous as mild attack
of cholera. There is one remedy, how
ever, that can always be depended upoa
as will be seen by the following certifi-
cate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of III )us-
ton, Texas: I hereby certify that
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Dial :
rhoea Remedy cured my husband of a
severe attack of Cuban diarrhoea. which
he brought home from Cuba. We hal

good. One bottle of this remedy cured
him, as our neighbors will testify. L

Verdicts in Personal Injury Suits

Approved.

Among the opinions of the appellate
court, Second district, rendered yes
terday, there were seven cases of local
import disposed of as follows:
Village OF Hampton VS.. Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul railroad: judgment
reversed and remanded with direc.

Tri-City Railway company VS.. Wied

Damages for Ordinance violation.
The village of Hampton has been
pursuing the Milwaukee road since the
company raised its tracks running
through the village above the grade es-
tablished by ordinance enacted by the
village board. Suits for damages were
filed in both the county and circuit
courts. The suit in the circuit court
still is pending. The reversal by the
appellate court is on the decision of
Judge E. r. Parmcntcr. in the county
court, on the demurrer of the railroad
company. AS there were several legal
points i'll contention. on any one of
which there could be 4 reversal. il is
not known on which the appellate
court based its opinion. The crucial
point. however. was the position of
the railroad company that the Ordin-
ance on which il was sought TO re-
cover damages was invalid for the rca
son that il gave to the president and
clerk of the village legislative instead
of executive powers The ordinance
provides penalty of s25 for each day
after notification has been given to the
violator This would bring the dam
ages into the thousands. but Judge
Parmenter ruled that there could not
be recovered in excess Of 5000 on any
one suit. as the statues are explicit in
stating that not more than that
amount can be recovered under an or
dinanCe.

employ medical attention. Dr. Rankin
was called in by Supervisor W. r.

town, and was assured that the county
would pay his bill if the patie.- was
not able 10. The circumstance wGs
similar in the instance of DR.. Arp
The bills presented by the physicians
were rejected by the board. whereupon
they sued in the circuit court. The
jury awarded DR.. Rankin $40 and DR..
Arp s240.
City Loses Two Cases.
BY the ruling of the appellate court
the city of Rock Island must pay TO
Mrs. Mary Littig and Loran Gingles
the judgments entered on jury YER
diets in the circuit court. Mrs. Littig.
who was injured in a fall on a de
fective walk on Fifth avenue. was
awarded damages of 81 900. Mr. Gin
giles was given a verdict for $3.50 fo-
injuries sustained in driving into an
opening on Fourth avenue and Ninth
street while On his way TO his home
in South Rock Island. The accident
occurred at night, when the city failed
to provide danger lights.
Railway Company Suits.
The verdicts of the juries in the
personal injury suits of NJ. A Gould,
of Moline. and Mrs. Bertha Weiden-
hOeft, of Rock Island against the Tri-
City Railway company are sustained.
The circuit court jury fixed the dam
ages for Mrs. Weidenhoeft at S2,013.
but this apparently was considered eX-
cCssiye by the higher tribunal, for
there is reduction to $1,000 noted.
Mrs Weidenhoeft was thrown to the
pavement while alighting from a car,
the car starting before her feet were
free from the step. Both her should
Crs were injured. There were two
trials of the Could case. In the first
the jury gave a verdict of $500. The
court granted a new trial to the de-
fCndant. The second verdict. which is
affirmed. was for 81 100. Mr.. Gould
was elected from a car in Moline. He
claimed that the car was in motion
and that he was thrown violently TO
the pavement, causing permanent in
juries. The defense maintained that
Mr. Gould had made himself obnoxious
to other passengers on the car. but
that ne was not handled roughly. as
charged. by the conductor. The at
torpeys of the railway company say
the case Will be carried TO the supreme
court.

experiences in St. Louis, Illinois and
West Virginia while masquerading as
- man and making love TO women
have been familiar TO newspaper read
ers since the discovery OF her sex at
the Chester, H., penitentiary five
years ago has escaped final trial on
the charge of forgery.
Press dispatches tell of a peculiar
judicial condition at Parkersburg, W.
Va. where her case was set. which is
responsible for the immunity of trial
which she enjoys.
The case was set for The criminal
court, but the judge of that court was
the assistant prosecuting attorney at
the time of her first tria., three years
ago. which resulted in a mistrial. The
present prosecuting attorney was at
that time employed as her counsel.
Judge, il Disqualified.
The case cannot be taken 10 the cir
cult court, because the judge of that
court is diqualifed from the fact that
three years ago he was the prosecut
ing attorney who worked UP the case
against her.
There is an acting judge whose duty
it is TO sit in criminal court cases ii
which the criminal judge is ineligible
