COLORED WOMAN
SEEKS DAMAGES
MRS. MARTHA BRADSHAW CLAIMS
INJURY FROM STREET CARS
~ QUICK START

Progress in the Bradshaw damage
case has been rapid since the case be-
gan yesterday morning and several
witnesses have thus far been heard.
The plaintiff is striving to show by it's
witnesses that the car which the plain
tiff, a colored washerwoman, had
boarded, was started too soon and
threw her violently down. The claim
is made that her back and lower limbs
were injured by the accident. The de-
PENDANT heard two witnesses yester-
day in order to permit their leaving,
but the plaintiff did not get through
with it's witnesses until after noon to-
day.
Another chapter in the much tried
horse case is noted today in the
clerks office when a motion to set
aside the verdict recently found for
the defendant and asking for a judg-
ment for the plaintiff was filed. The
case was one In which George D.
Brown sued Ed. o. Barton for the bal
ance, $55, on the purchase Of a horse.
The case was tried first in Justice
court where a Judgment was secured
by the plaintiff An appeal to the dis
trict resulted at first in no verdict, and
later upon retrial the result was a YER
dict for the defendant, who was given
a verdict for 81 as damages sustained
in the transaction. The plaintiff is now
mover of the motion for new trial and
a different Judgment.

May IS DAY SET
FOR BRIDGE WORK
TRAFFIC WILL BE STOPPED FOR
OVER MONTH ON MARKET
STREET ROADWAY

If there is no great delay in the ship
ment of material, the reflooring OF the
Market street bridge with creosote
blocks will be commenced by the o.
tumwa Supply & Construction Co. May
Is. The blocks are now the most
doubtful as to time of shipment. Geo.
NJ. Zika Of the construction firm mas
received word that the shipments can
not be started until May 10. 1t was
first expected that the first lot of the
creosoted material would reach o.
tumwa May /. High waters have
proven a hindrance to the Kettle
River Quarries Co., which Is furnish
ing the blocks.
The bridge will Of necessity be
closed for period of thirty days and
possibly for six weeks, causing all
south side traffic to go over the Vine
street structure. The foot passages
will of course be open all the time. 1t
would be impossible to keep any part
of the bridge open as the establish
ment Of a creosote block floor necessi-
tates the entire reconstruction Of the
roadway base. The constructionists
have been given forty-two. days IN
which to keep the bridge barricaded
but it is thought that all of this time
will not be required. It is the intention
to have all the material on the site be-
fore any work is commenced and then
10 rush the job right through as quick
ly as possible.
It is not known at present whether
a day and night shift Of workmen Will
be maintained. A heavy day force Will
be placed at work at the beginning. AS
soon as the builders ascertain just
how much can be accomplished each
day, they will lay their plans accord
ingly. It may not be necessary to put
on a night force except for time for
the purpose of laying the material
needed for the next days work.

Montgomery Made Talk.
The last evening meeting of the
Presbytery was popular service, the
address being given by Rev. R. Ames
Montgomery.
Before the address the Haydn quar-
tet rendered two very pleasing mum
bers that were highly appreciated by
those present.
DR.. Montgomery's subject was "Mis'
sions the Church's Opportunity" He
said in part:
"Never in the history of the world
has such an awakening been felt in
the missionary spirit nor has so much
been accomplished as In the last
twenty years. In Japan, Korea, China,
India, Persia and in Africa, word
comes of the remarkable progress
made by the missionaries.
I'm China in 1855 there were but
six converts to Christianity; in 1894
there were $4,000, and at present there
are estimated 175,0O0 Christians in the
empire, who are now welding great
influence in the developing of the
Chinese republic.
"In our country there was during
the past year but one convert to every
twenty Christians, while in the foreign
field there were fifteen new converts
to every one already saved, and con-
vert in the foreign field does not con-
slider he is really saved until he has
brought in another.
1.-The churches in this country today
that are doing the most good and
reaching the most people in their COM
munity are the ones that are doing the
most for missions both at home and
abroad"
