SOUTHEN PACIFIC
WINS CENTRAL CASE
Court Of Appeals Rules 1t Need
Not Sell Control of Line
from Ogden to Frisco.
JUDGE GARLAND DISSENTS

New York, March l0.-The South
Pacific company announced here to-
day receipt of advices that the
United States circuit court OF appeals
at Salt Lake City had rendered a de-
cision in favor of the Southern Pa
cifc in the suit of the government to
compel the company to sell its con-
troll OF the Central Pacific railway.
The opinion in the case was writ
ten by Judge Hook, it was said, Judge
Sanborn concurring and Judge Car
land dissenting.
The suit was brought in February,
1914, the government alleging that
the operation of the two roads under
the same management resulted in a
violation of the Sherman law and of
what is known as the Pacific railroad
law passed by congress in 1862, de-
signed to provide continuous con-
nected lines from the Missouri river
to the Pacific coast with equal ad-
vantage to all other roads.
Conditions complained of by the
government had been in existence
for over thirty years." said J. P. Blair,
general counsel of the Southern Pa
cifc, in commenting upon the deci-
sion. THE communities which would
have been injured if a violation of
Sherman law was involved had never
complained and testified thar they
were perfectly satisfied, and the I'm
ion Pacific, which would have been
agrieved if there should have been a
violation of the Pacific railroad act,
had never complained and was per-
fectly satisfied"

Count zeppelin's
Body is Removed to
Stuttgart for Burial

Berlin, March l0.-(Via London.)
The Berlin press is filled with re-
views of the life and achievements
of Count Zeppelin, who shared with
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg the
honor of national popularity. Count
Zeppelin's fame, however, was estab-
lished when the field marshal was
practically an unknown quantity and
Berlin today recalls the time not long
gone by when airship rides from
Dusseldorf to Berlin by way Of Ham
burg and Bremen were luxurious
thrills to be enjoyed at 200 marks a
head.
The obituary notices recall the de-
votion to the realization of his dream,
which was not only manifested in
matches perseverance, but only in
the sacrifice of his private fortune.
The papers recall the emperor's tri-
butte to the count on his seventy-hfth
birthday, when he termed him "the
greatest man of the twentieth CEN
tury."
1t is also recalled that at the time
of the American civil war Count Yep
pelin, then rs years Of age, shipped
on a French corvette lying in New
York harbor with the purpose of
reaching the northern lines by way of
Baltimore.
Count Zeppelin was Ill for less than
two weeks and the immediate cause
OF his death was pneumonia. His
death shroud is his favorite Uhlan
uniform, in which he was best known
to the public. OF the long list of
orders and decorations which were
conferred on him he was probably
proudest of the Iron Cross, which he
won in 1870.
The massive oak and metal casket
in which he will be buried was sealed
this afternoon and taken to Stuttgart,
where the funeral will take o1ace

HEALTH TALKS
(By DR.. Burhorn.)

Chiropractic pronounced XII
ro-prak-tik), from the Greek word
Kiro, signifying hand, and Prak-
tik, meaning practice, is the
science of locating the cause of
disease and the art Of removing
same by adjusting the spinal YER
tebrae, which relieves pressure on
the impinged nerve.
Chiropractic means adjusting
by hand and nothing more.
The human body in normal con-
dition is perfect machine. As
long as each part maintains a
proper relation to every other part
and is supplied with abundant
nerve power, the result Of its &C.
tivities cannot be other than that
of health.
In the face Of criticism, inter-
ference and opposition, it is over
coming all obstacles because it is
right. If it had no merit it could
not survive, and being right it Of
fers to all the opportunity to in
vestigate it's CHAINS and study its
works and methods.
The sick arp not greatly inter-
ested in theoriss, but in anything
that will make them well--a little
inquiry will undoubtedly show
that the good results claimed for
Chiropractic adjustments can be
accomplished in ninety-five per
cent of human ailments without
the assistance of any means ex-
cept the Chiropractor's bare
hands.
Consultation is free. Adjust
ments, $1.00.

Death at Toledo
Recalls Mystery
of Unso1ved Crime

The death a few days ago at Toledo
of Henry Weise recalls to mind the
mystery which still surrounds an un-
solved crime in this county, in which
Mr.. Weises daughter Anna was the
victim. In the little Vienna cemetery
in the northeastern part of this county
Friday afternoon, Mr.. Weises body
was laid beside that of his daughter,
whose cruel murder on Aug. 16, 1898
still remains one of the Unsolved
crimes Of this county. Mr.. Weise's flu
neral was largely attended from the
Methodist church at Beaman, in charge
Of Rev. A. w. Smith.
The murder Of Anna Weise is still
within the recollection Of aNgreat many
people living in this county. While
she was on her way from the home Of
Arthur Hill to that of Henry Russie,
where she was employed as domestic.
members of the Russie household heard
her cries and fastened in the direction
from whence the sounds came. They
found the young woman breathing her
last Her head had been terribly beat
en- with club, the skull being frac-
tured.
Altho every effort was made to fas-
ten the crime upon different persons
arrested two trials of the case failed OF
conviction. It has always been the
hope Of county peace officers and law
yers who were interested in the case
that a deathbed confession would,
some time, clear the mystery that has
shrouded the murder for now almost
quarter Of a century.
