MABRAY LOST HIS CASE.
Judge J. w. Smith Wins in Suit
Brought Against Him by
His Father-in-law.

The ease of Mabray VS.. Smith
occupied the attention of the Cir
cult Court most of last week.
Mabray is aged and blind and
was making his home with his
son-in-law, Judge j. w. Smith
Several years ago he was adjudg-
ed insane and was taken to the
hospital at Fulton.
Some time after Mabray was
released from the hospital and
last fall ne brought suit against
Mr.. Smith for $5,000.O0 alleged
damages claiming that Smith was
instrumental in having him sent
to the asylum when he was not
a fit patient.
The court was crowded each
day during the trial. About 30
witnesses, pro and con, were
called in the case. Frank James,
Clay Mcclure, Dan Meyers and
Others made good witnesses for
the defense. Drs. Cave and Ber-
rey, the physicians who examined
Mr.. Mabray before he. was sent
to the asylum, testified as to his
mental condition at that time.
The case was given to the jury
Saturday afternoon at 4 80 and
in 20 minutes they had concluded
their verdict-foF the defendant.

FAILED IN LINCOLN.
A Live Proposition Soon to Be
Submitted in Audrain
County.

The Elsberry Democrat prints
the following:
The special election held Tues
day for the purpose of voting on
the proposition of bonding the
county in the sum Of $4,000 to
improve the county poor farm
was defeated overwhelmingly.
While it requires 2-3 majority
to carry, il is not believed that
one-fourth of those voting favor
ed the proposition. A dispatch
from Troy Thursday morning
stated that the vote has not been
tabulated but it was the belief
that the bond election lost by at
least four TO one.
The impression prevailed here
and that seemed to have been the
consensus of opinion, that the
amount asked for was in excess
of that required to erect and i'm
prove the building at the county
poor farm. Had the election
called for $1,000 instead of $780,
600 it is believed few votes would
have registered against it.
Concerning the above the Far
Der Forum says:
We publish the above for the
reason that the Audrain County
Court is being urged to submit a
similar proposition to the voters
of this county, and the Court will
probably do this at an early date.
The conditions at the county farm
are not as they should be and the
jail is unsanitary and unsafe. 1t
is imperative that improvements
be made and the Court realizes the
necessity. The Forum does not
believe the voters of Audrain will
turn down any reasonable request
along this line.

Atchison, Kans. Feb. s, 'O9.
To the bereaved ones: We
were stunned this morning to hear
of the untimely death of our
friend and former claSsmate, Mrs.
Erna Lower Crawley.
This sad news came to us with
out warning, and all morning as
the sad news passed by wire and
word, from elassmate to classmate
and former teacher, we have been
wandering about, bewilderingly
asking ourselves, SIS it possible
that Erna Lower is deadl"
While this saddens our hearts,
we are firm believers in the God
of our fathers and the reality of
future life.
We know that this event we
mourn is but her graduation into
the presence of the All Wise Gre
ator, Teacher and Benefactor of
us all. This consciousness helps
us to bear up under the weight of
sorrow that saddens our hearts
today.
For three years Erna was our
claSsmate in the Atehison county
High School at Efingham, Kaus.,
where she graduated with honOrs
to herself and her school in class
of thirty, the class Of '04.
Her strong character, happy
nature and ability as student
made her a favorite a9d all who
knew her were her friends.
The sincere sympathy OF the
class 1904, and the hundreds of
other students who knew her, is
extended to the sorrOwing hus-
band and parents.

Rev. Elmer z. Bradley Dead.

Rev. E. E. Bradley died last
Monday morning at the home of
his father-in-law, James Offutt,
southwest Of Mexico. He had
been in failing health for some
time. A young wife and one
child survive him.
The funeral was held at Beaver
Dam church yesterday at noon,
interment in the cemetery there.
Bro. Bradley was an earnest
Christian gentleman-a preacher
in the Babtist church-and the
world is the poorer that he is
gone. A year or two ago he
moved TO South Missouri, hoping
that his health would be benefit
ted, but he soon returned without
any Improvement. To the be-
reaved wife and fatherless little
child we extend deepest sym
pathy.
