Much sickness is of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any of these organs are weak,
it is the fault of the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
a specific for the nerves. 1t
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation of nerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if you take DR.. Miles Nervine
when sick. Get bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac-
cording to directions, and if it
does not benefit he will return
your money.

CITY LOSES POINT IN
GRAND AVENUE CASE
Superior Court Holds Municipality
Erred When It Postponed Sale of
Property for Assessments
to Open Street

That the city erred when it post
poned the sale of property on Grand
avenue for assessments to open that
avenue from Temple street to Califor-
mia street was the decision of Judge
Moss of the superior court yesterday in
the suit of H. A. c. McPhail and other
property owners to restrain the city
from disposing of their property
Judge Moss sustained a demurrer to
the last answer made by the city, stat
ing that the statute provides that the
sale of property for assessment must
take place at the time specified IN the
advertisement. The action was filed
several years ago, and numerous points
of law were carried to the supreme
court. The sale was advertised to take
place February 10 last and then con-
tinued from time to time, the last date
set being May 10, when it was pre-
vented by a restraining order. The de-
cision is a victory for the plaintiffs.

gines, but there is some doubt in the
mind of the city attorney whether the

eines. and the specific ordinance was
passed for this purpose,
The police department wanted an eX-
ception made for the motorcycles rid
den by the policemen who are detailed
to catch violators of the speed ordi-
nance, because a muller has tendency
to heat an engine and makes running
a little more difficult. But the city at
torney held no exception could be made.
This ordinance is hailed with delight
by those persons who are annoyed at
the noise made by motorcycles.

CITY AUDITOR
WILL TESTIFY
TO TELL COUNCIL OF LICENSE
INSPECTORS
Mushet Is Loaded with Facts to Show
Negligence and Carelessness
on Part of City En-
ployes
Transacts a General Bank
ing and Trust Business

The council will meet at 8 o'clock
Monday morning to continue the hear
ing of the mayors charges against the
license inspectors. City Auditor
Mushet will be the first witness to be
called, and it is expected it will require
several hours for Mr.. Mushet to tell all
he knows of what IL wrong with these
license inspectors and their methods Of
doing business. Mr. Mushet has been
collecting evidence against these men
ever since he has been in office, and
he has a surprising amount to present.
The city auditors object in securing
this data was not so much to show the
loose business methods in vogue in the
office of the tax and license collector,
where the license inspectors are en-
ployed, as to prove to the council that
some change was necessary. He made
report to the council several months
ago to such good effect that the coun-
Gil found it advisable to create the
position of police license inspector
But because of the political pull these
license collectors exert they were not
disturbed In their positions, although
the city auditor recommended they be
abolished.
Testimony was given to the council
last week tending to show these license
collectors are not only lax in their
methods, but have told license payers
to give no heed to. the instructions of
the police, who are also license in
spectors.
The mayor has asked that the posi-
lions held by these six license inspec-
tors be abolished and a sergeant of
police be appointed as chief license in
spector, with every patrolman in the
department acting as his deputies and
inspecting all licenses on their beats.
Both the mayor and the city auditor
have declared that such method will
result in thousands of dollars being
added to the city revenue every year.

SENTENCE is DEL ,AYED UNTIL
NEXT SATURDAY
MRS. HESTER T. GRIFFITH HAS
AN APOLOGY TO MAKE
State Head of w. c. r. U. Says 1t
Was Herself and Not Convicted
Woman Who Spoke to
Juror

Weeping and visibly nervous with
apprehension concerning the action
that would be taken with her case, Mrs.
Gertrude briggs, found guilty Friday
night on a charge of uttering forged
lease to 1877 acres of land belonging to
the Charnock estate, appeared in
Judge Davis department of the Grim
inal court yesterday to hear the court
fix the date for her sentence. with
the exception of one of her attorneys,
r. c. Noleman, Mrs. briggs was UNI
accompanied, and, while Mr. Noleman
argued for postponement of the SEN
tence for two weeks in order that
time might be had in which to prepare
a motion for a new trial, she sat alone,
weeping bitterly and paying little, IL
any, attention to the proceedings.
W. ]. Ford, deputy district attorney,
opposed a longer delay than one week,
suggesting that, if affidavits and other
material in support of the application
for a new trial were not completed III
that time, a further continuance coulu
he granted. Judge Davis adopted TINS
suggestion and fixed the time for SEN
tence at 10 O'Clock next Saturday
The excitement attendant upon the
return of the verdict in the briggs
case confused a number of those pres
ent in the court room as to the identity
of the woman who approached one Of
the jurors and uttered criticism of
his action in joining with his fellow
Jurors in a verdict of guilty. The
belief that this person was Mrs. briggs
was contradicted yesterday by Mrs
Hester T. Griffith, state president of
the Womans Christian Temperance
union.
at was 1 and not Mrs. briggs who
spoke to o. D. Conrey, juror" said
Mrs. Griffith. II asked him how he
could do such a thing, but before 1
could say more I was led away by one
of the court officers
Mrs. Griffith, who is close friend of
Mrs. briggs, has watched the trial
throughout.
