TO a sudden termination in the court
|of common pleas, when City Solici.
tor 10. T. Boyd. introduced a motion
asking the court to dIrect the jury
to return verdict for the defendant
the City of Marion. Il
The motion was entered as soon as
the plaintiff put the first witness on
the stand Mr.. Boyd held that the
facts In the petition filed by Tate did
not constitute cause OF action and
the ruling OF the court upheld the
argument OF counsel.
The plaintiff. through Attorney
John ID. DeGolley. entered a motion
for a new trial which was overrul-
ed by the court. II Is possible that
the case will be appealed.

There is more catarrh in this section
OF the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be iucurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced 1t a local disease, and prescrib-
ed locai remedies, and by constantly
falling to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutlonal treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by f.. j. Cheney
q Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only consti-
tutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and muscous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case 1t fails to cure. Send for
