GIRL GETS $500 VERDICT.
Nellie Breiner Rendered Judgment for
Seduction Against T. j. Nugenf,

Jefferson, March %. - A judgment
of S5,400 was secured by Miss Nellie
Breiner against T. j. Nugent in Sc
duction case just closed in the district
court. The case was on trial four
days, many witnesses being examined
and the jury reached a verdict after
seven hours elaboration Miss Brien-
er sued for $1,000 and receiver three
fourths of that sum. Miss Breiner
was unable to appear in court and her
testimony was taken by deposition,
which procedure the defense strongly
objected to and moved that the case
be taken from the jury. Judge Powers
overruled this and it is very likely an
appeal to the supreme court will be
taken.

about year ago was attacked by
severe rheumatic pains in my left

I was getting no relief from applications,

less frequent, and that they were not so
severe a. before. After the second box
had been nsed up was entirely free
