FAMOUS CAT CASE SETTLED.
Lawsuit Caused by Staying Of kitty
Withdrawn from Court.

Chrisnev Jnd-The famous "cat
case" OF the town Of Chrisney against
David Axton has come to close. This
close is the withdrawal of the appeal
by the town of Chrisney, which was
taken to the circuit court from Justice
Sandage's court at Gentryville. AT
different times there have been seven
attorneys employed and, exclusive OF
their fees, the costs have amounted
to more than $50. And, It was all
over a cat.
Some weeks ago Axton was annoyed
by tomcat, which sat on the back
fence at his home and made the night
hideous. The cat had also bounced
on some of the chickens owned by AK
ton and carried them away. Axton re-
solved to do away with the cat.
He got a shotgun and one night
blew out the brains Of poor kitty He
was arrested for violating the town or
dinance of shooting within the cor
porate limits, but at a trial In Justice
Sandage's court at Gentryville he was
found not guilty. On the advice OF
the attorneys for the town of Chris
ney the town board decided to appeal
the case to the Spencer district court
which was done few days ago. Now
the attorneys have asked the with
drawal OF the appeal.

TO TALK ACROSS THE SEA

submarine cable 5000 miles In length
equipped at frequent Intervals with
electro magnets was practical impos-
slbility
Seventeen years ago the French gov
eminent tried some expensive expert
ments in the establishment OF a sub
marine telephone between Marseilles
and Alglers, but 1t proved n complete
failure.
DR.. D'Unger believes he has solved
the difficulty by means OF dual cur
rent. The 5000 miles of cable Is d.
vided into distances OF 800 miles. sep
arated by induction coils. The first
current flows through electric cover
ings surrounding iron cones. mag
netizing the cones. The second cur
rent impelled by the human voice
passes through these cones, which are
automatically transformed into electro
magnets. The result is a succession
OF complete 300.mile currents by which
the sound waves may be carried unim-
paired in force any distance.
Experiments have been carried out
by DR.. D'Unger with model of his
apparatus, sending the current through
a specially constructed box represent
ing a resistance OF $4,000 miles. These
experiments have proved complete
success, he asserts.
For over so years Dr. D'Unger has
devoted his life to the investigation OF
electrical prenomena. He has prac-
ticed medicine in Chicago for 2S years.
retiring from his profession some
years ago He is native OF Maryland.
where he was born in 1926, being now
81 years old, but in appearance and
energy he is really 20 years younger.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

Ginger plasters, made like mustard
plasters, produce the same results and
do not blister.
Baking soda Is good for an aching
tooth; for bathing surface which is
broken out with hives or prickly heat;
to take internally for sour stomach.
Lime water mixed with linseed or
table oil makes a good dressing on alb
sorbent cotton or use carbolic solu
ton, using two parts OF hot (as can
be borne) boiled water to one part of
carbolic solution.
When children swallow hurtful
things, If it causes choking and symp-
toms Of suffocation, either turn the
child upside down and strike quickly
between the shoulders or run the fin
ger back into the throat to hook 1t
out, or last of all push it down.
A little camphor applied to a wet
cloth will whiten the skin, but 1t
should be used sparingly, with a cream
afterward. A few drops put into luke
warm water and applied with sponge
after one has come in from an outdoor
trip is extremely refreshing.
The complexion is made or marred
by the food one eats. The best food
for beautiful complexion Is that
which is most readily assimilated. I'm
digested foods and wastes that are not
promptly and regularly eliminated
from the system are corrupting forces
that generate poisons, which must, OF

Dressed in her brothers clothing
as she was, Cowboy Maggie" vault
ed again to her saddle with fsmiliey
ease.
Seven miles we've come" she
unused, as she rode by "the widows"
and guided her horse into Tarnahan
road. "Then it's 80 more to make,
I'll beat them yeti"
Fifty yards beyond the fork OF the
roads, her broncho suddenly SHE'D at
a dimly seen object in the brush.
Maggie recognized a white calf. She
assured her horse with touch and a
murmur Her quick eyes then dis
covered a number of other calves.
She knew the little band at once.
There were nine small heifers, the
property Of Mrs. Jordan, the widow"
They're all I've got in the world"
Mrs. Jordan had told her, smiling
through tears as she spoke, "for Hick-
ey bought up the undertakers bills
against me and took all my cows.
He'd have taken the calves. too, only
the lawyers made him stop"
"Hickey-the miserable thief" Mag
gle sputtered. And to think of Ed.
Hickey daring to marry Carrie Downs!
/ don't see how she ever thought of
saying yes. But she shan't-she shan't
not il have to steal her myself and
run away! They must have made her
take him. Get up, Brutus! What
are you doing?"
Almost on the moment, curse and
q shout indicated that two or more
riders had discovered the calves
doubtless through the shying of their
bronchos.
Here, Skete, hold on" cried one OF
the iiders behind her; "ain't these
them Jordan cattle?"
The girl recognized the nasal snarl
OF young Hickey.
What answer was made by "Skete'
she could not determine. A murmur
represented the conversation Of the
men. who had evidently halted in the
road
"Branded?-like hell" came the
high voice of Hickey again, in dispute;
al tell you saw 'em two days ago
and not a one of 'em ironed. CAM
nobody swear to calf unless it's

branded? This is the softest snap
ever seen. Here-round em up-send
'em along"
Cant do it alone" growled the 9TH
er. You better come and help on the
job. II you want it done up SO sud
den."
"Me?" snarled Hickey, as he swung
his vicious horse toward a lettering
heller "I've got to git move on now
10 git to my wedding. l told you be-
fore it's coming off at daylight, It's
got to-we've got to catch that train.
Bite EN-! bite EN-! Hey there! Rush
'em lively"
The scurrying hOofs beat up a cloud
OF COLI dust, felt rather than seen.
Maggie was tingling with indigna-
ton. She had caught Hickey fairly in
the act of robbery; she had heard him
confirm the maddening story that he
meant to marry Carrie Downs at day
light. She was thrice more anxious
than before to fly to Tarnahan's and
save her friend, but Hickey would now
be there as soon as she. She would
have to resort to some other plan to
STOP inc wedding.
Maggie fancied she could see old
Justice Carey cross as a badger, thin
as knife, gray as the desert, standing
before Carrie and Hickey swapping out
the words OF the sacred ceremony He
was the only man within a radius of
100 miles who could perform the rite.
If he would only refuse, the trick
would yet be won!
But she knew old Carey. She knew
he would not refuse, not for love nor
money. He was crazed on the subject
OF marrying anyone to anyone else.
He seemed almost to take a devilish
delight in tying together ill-assorted
couples. Then, like lightning, thought
struck in her brain. 1t almost made
her reel with its force. But her whole
horizon was cleared
She vaulted up into the saddle. NOT
a moment did she have to snare
Brutus leaped at the dig of her spurs
and started madly down the road.
Late as she had started, and consid-
cradle as the distance was, over hills
and through swales, Maggie a little
before two o'clock in the morning
raped on Justice Careys door.
You noisy idiot" chopped the voice
OF the justice. who thrust his thin face
out into the darkness, "'tain't time
faint time! What do you mean
