Demurrer In Quarantine Cnne.
The county filed Its demurrer yesterday In
the suit brought by Finance Clerk True on
behalf of the city to enforce the payment by
the Board of Supervisors of the expenses
Incurred In maintaining the quarantine In
the recent smallpox cases.
The county demurs on the ground that the
charges eot forth do not purport to have been
made to provide the alleged patients with
nurses , needful assistance or supplies while
quarantined , which alone the Board of
Health hag a right to provide under the
statutes at the expense of the county. Fur
ther , that the petition shows upon its face
that the parties alleged to have been carea
for as quarantined patients were cared for
at the douses whore they were found ana
not by removal to a separate house or
houses , and that the Hems charged for In
the petition and for which the city seeks to
recover plainly appear to bo for guards and
matters of expense Incurred In the enforce
ment of the quarantine regulations , nnd Oo
not purport to bo charges In whole or In
part for care of the patients ; nnd It also ap
pears from ttie petition that all of sale
charges are brought against the county be
cause the Board of Health ot Council Blufts
authorized the expense and regulated the
charges therefor ; also that the charges are
matters of expense Incurred In the main
taining of the quarantine regulations vililcn
to the law are to be borne by the subdivisions
of the county In which the case of smallpox
occurred , namely , In this Instance , Council
Bluffs. As to the claim of $04 for maintain
ing the quarantine at the residence of Mrs.
Harris at Twenty-third street and Avenue
II , the county demurs on the further grounds
Unit the petition failed to show or allege
that Mrs. Harris was a , person who was In
fected with or who had been recently In
fected or sick with smallpox or other dis
ease dangerous to the public health.

Court Notcx.
The day In the district court yesterday
was occupied by Judge Smith In hearing
the evidence and arguments In support ot
the motion filed by the Portland Gold Min
ing company to have the appointment of
Ernest 13. Hart as receiver annulled. The
company also made its showing why It wna
unable to obey the order of the court to
turn over to the receiver Its stock nnd
transfer books.
The order was made on the application of
James Doyle 'In ' his suit against the Port
land Gold Mining company , brought by him
for the purpose of trying to make his Judg
ment against James Burns , president ot the
company , good.
The company contended that ns Doyle was
no longer , as It alleged , a stockholder In the
company , ho had no claim or Interest 1n
the company's property and therefore was
not entitled to have a receiver appointed.
Further , the company contended that the
fact that Doyle hold a judgment against
Burns , one of the stockholders , was no
reason why ho should bo granted the ap
pointment of a receiver for the company's
booKs. In support of Its contention , the
company placed on the stand Bookkeeper
Blschoff , who testified that Doyle had cold
the greater part of his holdings In the com
pany in 1S97 and that he had disposed of
his last batch of stock , consisting of C03
shares , the latter part of April , 1898.
The attorneys for Doyle answered that as
the .company was Incorporated under the
laws of Iowa governing domestic corpora
tions , It was legally bound to keep Its olllco
and stock and transfer t > ooks in this state
nnd tbo fact that it failed to do BO was
sulllclent grounds In Itself for ( he court
ordering a receiver to take charge of them.
The hearing was completed just before
court adjourned for the day and Judge Smith
Bald he would take hlH decision under ad
visement.

In an Iowa case submitted to the
supreme court today. There are six
cases pending together and submitted
at the same time. The controversy Is ov r
something like 50,000 acres of land lying
In northwestern Iowa , most of it In O'Brien
county. The land as early as 1856 was In
the hands of one owner , an ancestor of
Eliza B. Hawley , and the other plaintiffs.
Through succeeding years Itwas Impossi
ble for the owner to keep up the land as re
quired by law and before , many years much
of It had eaten itself up In taxes. The lan.l
Is worth now perhaps $1,000,000 and tun
town of Sanborn , with 1,500 people , Is In
the midst of It. The heirs of the former
owner , who resided in Council Bluffs before
hla death , brought suit to recover from the
present holders. Judge Thomas of Storm
Lake returned a verdict for the present settlers
tlors and the heirs of the former owner
have appealed. They make their strongest
claim the plea that the former owner wai
Insane and because of that he failed to keep
the taxes against the land paid up.

Jan. 6.
Friends said I was in the last
stages of consumption. I wns as yel
low as gold and very black under
the eyes. 1 couldn't walk more
than two blocks without sitting
down. I felt my time to die had
come. Then 1 began taking Wine
of Cardui and Black-Draught. Ohl
what relief they brought me. I feel
like going to the end of the earth
to tell every afflicted woman about
them. My skin now is so clear and
fair my friends hardly know me.
LAURA D. VOTAW.
A woman cannot have a fair skin or fine figure if her wo
manly organs are weak or diseased. Such a thing is utterly im
possible. On the other hand , a woman with strong , vigorous ,
perfectly healthy organs cannot be homely , emaciated or unat
tractive. The minute you drive disease out , the features , the
skin aivi the figure will show a wonderful change for the belter.
Beauty in woman is nothing but the outward indication of
health. Wine of Cardui does for women what cosmetics and
powders cannot do. It is for the cure of all feminine ailments.
It doesn't matter much what the doctors call the trouble. Wine
of Cardui is the remedy. No suffering woman ought to delay
in curing herself with It. Her * ,
