MRS.F. CADY WINS THE SUIT
Supreme Court Sustains Verdict
oil The Lower Court.

The supreme court dealt blow at
the "suicide clause" of life insurance
policies by holding, in the suit brought
by the widow Of the late Frank Cady
Of Grand Rapids, that when the pol
icy contains the exception 'death by
suicide, sane or insane" the claim
must be paid, unless it be shown that
the insured deliberately destroyed
himself. The court holds that the
mere fact that the insured may have
committed some act which resulted in
his death does not establish that he
committed suicide, and in the case at
bar the court holds that the death may
better be termed accidental than a
case Of suicide. Mr.. Cady was a
lawyer and prominent in Republican
political circles. He served in the
legislature and in the session Of 1901
was chairman of the assembly COM
mittee on Judiciary His health failed
and he went to Hot Springs for treat
ment, He was very much depressed
because of his condition and at
o'clock in the morning be took advant-
age of the momentary absence Of the
nurse and went up TO the fifth floor
Of the MOTEL. He was seen by wo-
man, who called to him and tried TO
get him to return to his room. She
suspected that he was deliriOus. He
ran from her and threw himself over
a railing, down an open shaft, sustain
ing injuries from which he soon died.
The Fidelity and Casualty company
resisted payment Of the policy on the
grounds shat notice of the death was
received too late and that the liability
did not accrue because of the suicide
clause. The court af1irms the judg-
ment Of the lower court, and the com
pany must pay.

CHARMED THE
LARGE AUDIENCE
Skovsaard Entertained a Large
Audience Wednesday. Nov. q.

The Skovgaard Concert Co., which
held forth at the Grand WEDNESDAY,
Nov. q, was indeed one of the very
best numbers of the concert course
held in this city. The fame of the
company had preceded its coming,
and in consequence the opera house
was filled with people who love music
and excellent entertainment, such as
is afforded by musical aggregation
of the Skoygaard type.
The great violinist, who is termed
the Danish Ole Bull, was all that was
anticipated, and the fact that his
evening dress was mislaid, and he
had to appear before the audience in
his travelling suit, did not mar the
work of this great master one bit.
The people who were present were
there to listen to the music, and his
wonderful mastery f that instrument
was all that they were aware of.
The work of the vocalist, Miss
Eleonora Olson, and the accompanist,
Miss Lois Louise Davidson, were
equally worthy, and the audience
spent an evening of keen enjoyment.
Manager Hamilton has indeed been
fortunate in his selection of numbers
for this winters course, and the
people of Grand Rapids unite in ex-
tending him congratulations.

course of construction. 1t is reported
that this track now extends south to
point across the Eau Claire river,
and is within twelve or fifteen miles
of this city, although to reach there
by rail would involve travelling over
hundred miles. The point to which
the telegraph lines will be extended
viii undoubtedly be where the Wright

defendant.

There seems to be great comotion
over the false alarm of fire which was
sounded about l O'Clock Thursday
night. From all indication this alarm
was the work of practical jokers, and
the police authorities are endeavor-
ing to ascertain who the individual
was who sent in the alarm. 1t has
just been found beyond shadow of
a doubt that the alarm was not sent
in from ]. r. Ragan's store, neither
was it sent in from G. E. Krause's IS
saloon. 1t is stated by the telephone
girl who took the alarm that it came
from either one of these two places,
but careful investigation has been
made, and the authorities are salts
fed that the operator is wrong. Who
sent in this alarm? Time will tell,
and if it is found that anyone is being
shielded, trouble may accrue to more
than one person.

REGISTERS WILL
ORGANIZE ALSO
Meeting Will be Held Here Dur.
ing The Holidays.

Register of Deeds W. S. Powell is in
correspondence with number of
other Registers of the state, looking
to the calling of meeting at which a
state organization may be perfected.
The meeting, according to the indica-
tions in this correspondence will
probably be called for the holidays.
and will undoubtedly be held in this
city because of it's central location
and the excellent railroad service.
Most of the other county officers of
the state, have a state organization,
and as these organizations have in
every case proven valuable to the
members, the registers have decided
that close communion will result i'm
the improvement of the services i'm
the registers offices throughout the
state.
Full particulars of the results of
this correspondence will he published

THE HUMANE SOCIETY TALK
More Light on The Subject by
"The Observer"

Conversation with almost every
person you meet shows that it is gen.
orally conceded that a Humane
Society in our city would be a fine
thing, highly proper, and with plenty
of material to work upon, yet people
seem slow to take the iniative in the
matter. 1.-THE Observer is awaiting
a reply from the president of the state
Humane Society in reference to form
ing a local organization and in due
time the public will be informed as to
the possibility of an organization
being formed in Grand Rapids.
Every day in the year one can see
animals. especially horses, shame
fully abused in various ways with
with apparent impunity by their
drivers, and the defenseless dumb
animal should be protected.
The writer has seen poor, old
horses driven on the hard ground,
drawing heavy loads, with not shoe
on their feet and their hoofs worn
down to the very quick, causing ex-
cruciating pain to the horse, and the
driver doing naught but poundi ng
him on the back with whip
Not only are animals terribly mis-
used, but children as well. The OBJ
server can also show anyone who de-
sires to see, children with no shoes
to protect them, hardly clothing
enough to wad a gun and only half fed
and housed. This is a hard state of
affairs to have in our city when it
could be averted very easily by con-
certed effort or system.
Lets not be so anxious for foreign
work, or the perfecting of
outside systems Of government until
we have done what we can to perfect
our local defections. Think this
matter over people and if a mass
meeting is called on this subject, come
prepared to talk upon it and willing
to act. Other up-to-date cities have
Humane societies so let us not have
Grand Rapids relegated to the realm
of back woods towns for the want of a

is now in the hands of carpenters, who
are preparing it for store purposes.
The largest one of the two buildings
will be moved back, just as soon as

chased by ]. e. DAILY and will be
placed on the lot at the side of the
