Csrundv Center. Sept. 1.-The ceie-
brated Jones county calf case fas an
equal in case just started for the
coming term of the Grundy county
district court entitled Brown VS.. Pla>
ger. 1t is an action brought by FREQ
Brown against Henry Lewis and Rob
ert PLACER asking that an organ val
ued at $40 be returned to a schooi
house from which defendants took
same some few months ago. Some
wears ago there was organized at the
DeSelhorst school house, five mlies
west of this town. union sunday
school. which was attended by about
fifty regular scholars of various de-
nominations and of no denomination.
After running some months they de-
cided to buy an organ, and soeiables
were held until enough money was
raised to purchase an organ. A couple
of years ago, on account of families
moving away. the sunday school was
discontinued and the organ remained
where it had been in the school mouse.
This spring at meeting of the farm
ers of the neighborhood, called as,
| telephone meeting, it was thought, as
| a large number of the old Sunday
school scholars were present, that II
was a good time to decide what TO DO
with the old organ. So after the tele-
phone meeting the meeting resolved
itself into meeting to dispose OF the
organ and other Sunday school sup>
plies. After some discussion, in which
the plaintiff Brown took part, 1t was
decided to sell the organ for $40 and to
give the school district, which was to
have meeting the next Monday, first
chance to buy it, and committee was
appointed to make the sale The school
meeting the following Monday decided
not to purchase the organ, so the com>
mittee decided to accept the offer of
the defendants, Lewis and Robert Pla-
ger, of $40 for the organ. The pur-
chasers went to the school house and
i took the organ away and were met on
the road by plaintiff Brown, who de-
manded that they return the organ,
which the defendants refused to do,
but defendants offered to let Brown
have the organ for the $40 which they
were to pay for it. Considerable hard
feeling among the neighbors has re-
suited, affecting their threshing and
other farm work, and Brown has now
brought this action for the recovery OF
the organ. Brown is reported to have
said that he would spend the value of
a farm before he would give it up. The
matter is now in the district court,
and where it will end time only will
| tell The organ is not worth over the
$40 offered for it, and the expense of
the lawsuit, to say nothing about the
neighborhood rows, makes the matter
look pretty small to the ordinary OBJ

I@ATARRH Of the kidneys Is very
~ much neglected disease.
It is not until the disease has firm
hold upon the kidneys that the patient
begins to realize that there is some dc.
arrangement of these organs.
The slight backaches, the feelings Of
lassitude, and other warning symptoms
Of kidney disease are overlooked.
They are not serious enough to detain
the patient from his regular work.
Even when he discovers that the kidd
neys are affected, he does not recognize
me difficulty as being caused by ca
tarrh.
Catarrh is sometimes SO very gradual
in It's approach and its earlier symptoms
cause such slight discomfort that it Is
not noticed.
However,when it is once firmly seated
in the kidneys, 1t becomes difficult
disease to exterminate.

serious than catarrh affecting some Of
the other organs Of the body.

We do not suppose that any other
President would have met the Cuban
situation in the same way, but we think
the frank ness and honesty Of IL will be
conceded by all contemporary observ-
ers. 1t is open. above board and fair.
10 hides no subtle machiavellian purpose
TO put Cuba al a disadvantage; it cloaks
no design Of ACKNOWLEDGMENT and creates
no pretext for annexation or other SELF
ish achievement.
And It must be said that It is a mighty
original and prepossessing way OF meet
ing and coping with a dangerous and COM
plcated situation. The task intrusted to
the Secretary Of Wal is a delicate e
IL calls for infinite tact supplemented by
every possible weight of moral force.
To our mind it could not be in better
hands. A man like TAFT, whose nature
it is to radiate integrity and common
sense, and whose admirable personal
qualities are writ full and clear in his
face, is the mar Of all men Of our time
to produce the right impression. If the
Cubans cannot believe in and be guided
by TAFT they are beyond redemption.

and II the United States should refuse
TO exercise the right conferred by the
Platt Amendment, they themselves
would doubtless interpose. Fair minded
Cubans, therefore, must recognize that
in their own interest President RoosE-
WELT will be constrained to intervene
for while, unless some means can be
hit upon Of pacifying the Insurgents.
To help patriotic Cubans to devise some
expedient calculated to bring about paci-
fication with all possible promptitude is
the aim Of the mission on which Secre-
tary TAFT has embarked. He goes to
Havana, not as q. precursor Of interfer-
ence, but As n charged TO do every
thing in his power to render interference
needless. He goes, undoubtedly, with
out prejudgment Of the a between
the Cuban Government and the insur-
gents. We may be confident that he
has no preconcerted plan. His business
Is to find out the truth, and then make
the best Of it; to which end he will, Of
course. listen to both sides.
We have but little doubt that before
he has been a week in, Havana a truce
will have been agreed on by the COM
batants, and a long step taken toward
the permanent restoration Of peace.

Passion OF the Crowd.

The excitement among the $4,000 persons
eldest daughter unveil the Mckinley
memorial at Columbus was not at all
curious; nor would it be fair to attribute
any part Of it TO toadyism. The germ
Of hysteria and panic, Of rapturous APP
plause, of fear, Of murder is found wher-
ever considerable numbers are gathered
together. The girls who faint away one
after another in a factory; the rash and
sudden temperaments that yell Lynch
himl' when some motorman runs over
a child the vociferous rowdyism Of the
baseball ground; the communicative
ardors and frances Of an old fashioned
revival; the blind, senseless scurry after
some poor devil when the cry Stop
theft is raised; the panic in a thea
tire, the cheering at a great mass meet
ing, the notorious ease with which one
wag in a city "a assemble a multitude
Of hy-gobblers by gazing seriously up at
a window or down into a hole: all these
are manifestations Of the often mex
plicable catching" and spreading of a
thought, idea or emotion.
We leave it to some more expert och
lologer to trace the similarity or analogy
between great epidemics and these surg
ings Of the crowds. Enough to say that
when one reads that the women at Co
lumbus made a wild rush for the ribbon
with which she MRS. LoNGwoRrHl had
drawn the VEIL for -the wire which had
held the ribbon in place; and that most
Of the women appeared as il they only

passion Of the crowd. To the philoso-
pher there is nothing ridiculous in those
almost lunatical proceedings.
The Crusades and the French Revolu-
ton did but discharge more copiously
the electric current, sacred, crazy, pitt
less or patriotic, that runs between man
and man.
