An exciting time was had yesterday morn
ing In the court of Justice Swenringen , who
was hearing tbo trial of the case of Mary
Peterson against Charles Thyrkoll , in which
the plaintiff was seeking to got possession of
a cow which she claimed was hers , but which
was In possession of her brother , the defend
ant in the case. J. G. P. Peterson was mar
ried to the plaintiff only a few weeks ago ,
and ho was really reponstble for the bringing
of the suit , his wife being contended to Icnvo
her cow in the hands of her brother.
Mrs. Peterson was put upon the stand , and
after she had instilled she went across the
room nnd commenced to talk to her father
nnd brother. Her testimony had npparontly
not suited her liege lord , for Peterson rushed
across the room , seized his bride by the arm
and pulled her down stairs after bun In spite
of the efforts of the male relatives of the
woman , assisted by some of the by-slanders ,
to prevent him from doing her any Injury.
At the same time ho proclaimed lu a loud
tone of voice that the father and brother
were trying to win tils wife nwny from him ,
and ho didn't propose to stand it. At the
foot of the stairs the brother of the plaintiff
mot him and some angry words wore ex
changed , which seemed likely to result in a
light. During the ( juurrol Mrs. Peterson
ran up stairs , her husband shouting to her as
she disappeared behind the door of the Jus
tice shop that Ho was going home nnd she
need not inlnd about following tim , as ho
bad had enough of nor.
The transaction mid Its romantic ending
attracted n largo crowd , which was evidently
"
anxious to .sco a light. At the conclusion o"f
the trial Mrs. Peterson was given possession
of the cow.

The carelessness of the average sma'l ' boy
In Jumping on and oft motor trains while in
motion is made the subject of remark every
month or two , when some now victim to his
own * recklessness comes to light. Eddie
Conley , a boy living with his parents on
Vine street. Is the latest. Tuesday evening
ho was playing with some other boys of his
own age , jumping on and off the trains , when
ho made a misstep and was thrown to the
ground with tcrrillc force , landing on his
head on the hard pavement of the street.
Ho was picked up and carried homo uncon
scious , where a physician was summoned to
attend him. Ho finally came out nil right ,
hut with a sere head that will remind him
for some days of the foolishness of trying to
ride on the motor without paying.

Mnn.-iwa'H Mineral Water.
The artesian well at Lake Manawa is
attracting a good deal of attention and
many remarkable cures are reported as
having1 boon made by the use of its
waters. Last spring the well was sunk
to a depth of 185 feet , and a handsome
pavilion built around it. The well was
originally sunk in 18SO , when the hotel
was being built. Its strong mineral
qualities were at once discovered and a
quantity of the water was sent to Prof.
August Bode of Milwaukee , with the
following result :
Sulphate of iron , C.9.
Sulphate of magnesium , 4.5.
Phosphate of magnesium , 3.8.
Chalybeate , 3.4.

Trouble Which the 1'rrsonal
I'coplo Have oif Hand.
The Douglas County Personal Itlghts
league Is still In the ring. The idea ontor-
tulno'l by some pcoplo that the defeat of pro
hibition ended the occupation of the Personal
Rights league was shown last night to have
been entirely erroneous. About sixty mem
bers of the Douglas County league mot at
Gormania hall and proceeded to form n per
manent organization by the adoption of a
constitution and bylaws.
All Gorman speaking citizens may bacomo
members of the organization. The intention
is to have the orgai nation made permanent
all over the state , so that in case the prohibi
tion ghost should again show its head a do-
clslvo attaclc can bo made by those who as
sisted so energetically and efllolently In de
feating the amendment last year.
There was a lively discussion last night In
the league when some of the members wanted
to vote some of the funds now in the treas
ury to assist In bearing the expenses of the
Gorman day demonstration.
President Lund was stoutly opposed to the
idea of using the funds for that purpose.
Ho held that the funds had boon largely con
tributed by people who were not Germans
and they understood when they contributed
the funds that the money was to bo used In
the nntt-prohlbltion campaign. Ho thought ,
therefore , that it would not bo right for the
league to divert the funds to some other uso.
Other members of the leueuu said that the
prohibition tight was ever , there was a fund
of about * 7,000 In the treasury and they did
not believe that anybody who had con
tributed to the league would feel olTondcd If
some of the money should bo used to defray
the expenses of Gorman day. Some of the
members hinted that the funds wcro being
kept for the fall qampiilgn and If that was
the Intention of the democrats In the league
who objected to using the funds for Gorman
day , there would bo several different
varieties of inuslo Moating through the at
mosphere about the tlmo the attempt was
made to use the funds In n local , political
campaign ,
After discussing the matter for some tune
II was ( bully decided not to use the funds for
Gorman day.

Ireland. Miss Carrie Graham did some very
clover work and looked pretty as Helen

ST. PAUL , Minn. , Aug. 20. The great Lam-
bert-Steos land case , involving $ : > 00,000 worth
of real estate In the heart ot St. Paul , which
has been In the Minnesota courts for ton
years , has been decided by the supreme
court , which awarded the property to Wash
ington M. Sloes. Tbo piece of land involved
is ! it0 ! acres along Lake Phalon. Tullmadgo
Lambert , who is defeated in the suit , is a
young man of Washington city. The facts
are unusual. In IblO Amlrow Boll Patter
son , an GpUcop.illan clergyman , came to St.
Paul with a number of land warrants which
ho gave to David Lambert , a lawyer , to lo
cate for him on government lands. Lambert
proceeded to locate the warrants In his own
name , Within a week tlioroaftor ho died.
The administratrix of his estate , his mother ,
petitioned the probate court and attempted
to transfer the land to Patterson , and never
claimed It as a part of the estate of David
Lambert. About nineteen years ago the
property came into the hands ot Washington
M. Steos , who lived on the land for more
than nineteen years , when Tallmadgo Lam
bert brought Hiilt to recover the property ,
claiming that the probate proceedings won *
void. The district court t > Q held. Stccs ap
pealed to the supreme court , which hns now
reversed the dbcislon of the lower [ court and
holds that the testimony is suflk-ient to treat
Lambert as a trusted for Steoi without con
slderatlon of the validity of the prnbato pro
ceedings and that Stoos is entitled to the
property. The decision U Until.
