Sep tember 14. 1907.
 Attorney Jacob P. Goodhart, who appeared for the defendant. was very emphatic in his ridicule of the bill presented by the plaintiff for s25 for doctors attendance and medicines This he characterized as made up en- tirely out of whole cloth and his argu- ments were oratorical. Attorney Ford appeared for the plaintiff
 The jury was only out short time when 1t returned with verdict of s5 damages for the plaintiff. As the costs cannot be made greater than the damages tho plaintiff will have to be the loser In the suit as far as money paid out goes.

Bradley's case was continued yester- day until March 27. upon the request of Idouor Prosecutor Niles, who stated that there might be something doin' '' later.
 The Lenox club was run under whR. is popularly termed the key" system That is every member whose name is proposed for membership, after being | duly elected and initiated as in other well regulated and organized bodies. is supplied with key to the club rooms | Thereafter 1t Is a very simple matter Whenever any brother feels slightly thirsty he just goes to the club rooms.
