FIRE CAUSES
A BIG SCARE

Chicago Jan. 12.-Fire broke out IN
the board of trade building few
minutes after the market closed at
1:15 yesterday. rhe shouts Of fire
across the trading floor caused pam
ic among the lingering traders and
the occupants of the offices in the
building. Four hundred people in the

sible to clear the building almost be-
fore the fire department arrived
The fire started from faulty electric
wiring between the ceiling OF the

As the flames We're shooting up one
set of elevator shafts the pilots on
the cages on the opposite side OF the

brought scores of hysteHcal steno-
graphers and excited brokers to safety
An hour later most of these returned
to their offices and gathered up the
contracts and samples that had been
used in the days business on the
floor
The building was saved from a seri-
Gus conilagration by the tile floors
and the stone lined walls which gave

you are no longer conscious that you

That Is one OF the chief recommen-
dations for Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab

an extra stomach or two to work
when yours needed help. You can't
continually overload your stomach

driven to do double work. You must
rest IT occasionally--not by starving

sically-but by using a stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablet TO do the work of di-
gesting your food.
These tablets contain all the active
elements Of the natural stomac'

digest food just the same as the gas
trio juices. And nothing could be
more harmless than these tablets,
They do not effect the system in any

The Lumber Yard Case.
The error case of Frank NJ. Smith
against Hoke Donithcn was passed
lupon by Judge Grow. The action in
volved the sale of tho lumber yards on
Greenwood street, which took place IN
August 1910 The yard was sold at
sheriffs sale to the plaintiff for Il
consideration of $4,000. Smith claims
that after the returns were made,
Hoke Donithen falsely represented To-
the sheriff that he was a representa-
tive of the plaintiff, and altered the
sheriff's report to such an extent, that
Smiths name was erased from the
deed and Donithcn's substituted
Evidence introduced by the defend
ant was as follows About the time
of the sale o. Wollenweber made ar
arrangements with Smith at the Neil
House in Columbus, TO come TO Mar
ion on the day Of the sale and bid
On the property for Wollenwcuer, whu
for good reasons of his own, did not
desire to make the bid himself smith
accepted Mr. Wollenweher's offer, and
came to Marion at the lattcr's eN-
Ipense. Appearing at the sale, he made
bid Of S6,5OO. This being the best
bid. the property was struck off and
sold to smith
No money was paid down by Smith
but arrangements were made by him
with the sheriff that $500 should be
paid in a few days. Smith told VOL
lcnweber of this arrangement, who
Iagrecd and paid Smith 500 for his SER
lvices. considering the matter settled.
ON the following Tuesday, Wollen-
weber went to Donithen's office and
Iasked Donithen To take the property
! or his hand. Donithen accepted the
offer and paid the money, The state
lment of the affair was made To the
sheriff Smiths name erased and
Donithen's nut In its place. The court
confirmed the deed, which was given
to Donithen,
| Now. Smith says that Donithen's
name was fraudulently substituted for
his own and he sues DonIthen for
$500. In passing upon the case, the
court said:
No Basis for smiths Charges.
"We find no evidence that connects
Donithen with any unfair acts. And
neither do we find any evidence that
warrants such an inference. What
Donithen did was at the request of
Wollenweber The situation which
Smith occupied was that Of an agent
% Wollenweber being paid certain
fee TO do certain thing.
We think that the facts ana
the evidence clearly show that Doni-
then is without wrong and that Smith
has no foundation for his action.
Therefore. We find no error and the
judgment IL affirmed at the cost Of
the Daintif and remanded To the
