Tha action brought against the city of South Omaha by tho Plattstnouth Tele phone company hns taken another turn and tho company Is now restrained from doing Bny work or carrying on Its business Hi South Omaha until It Is decided whether the company can enter tho city without se curing a franchlso from tho council. J. H. Van Dusen appeared beforo Judge Estello yesterday morning and secured a restraining order, which requires the tele phono company to dlscpntlnuo nil work un til November 29, when Judgo Fawcett will hear tho case. The Plattsmoiith Telephone company at tempted to enter South Omaha over lines which wero alleged to havo been leased from tho Postnl Telegraph-Cablo company. City officials interfered with the work and "nserted that no company had a right to bring lines Into the city without consulting the city electrician nnd gottlng n franchlso from tho council, Tho Plattsmoiith company made applica tion to Judgo Haker for a temporary re straining order, which was granted. This order was rescinded lator by Judgo linker. Thn compnny then secured an order from the supreme court which virtually restored tho restraining order anil mndo It Impossi ble for South Omaha to lnterfcro with the company's work until after the district court renders n decision In tho case. That no work may be carried on meantime the South Omnha officials secured the order from Judgn Kstclle.

Tho right, of tho telegraph company to lease Its lines In tho streets of South Omaha Is also dented. It is alleged In the cross. petition thnt no company can use tho streets of the city without securing n franchise nnd tho city attorney states thnt the Plnttsmouth com pany made application, previous (o the nttempt to forcibly enter the streets, for an ordinance granting It permission to set Its poles nnd string Its wires nlong the public thoroughfnres of South Omaha. Ap plication Is said to have been made since the city Interfered. Tho cross-putltlon states that the city electrician must bo consulted by persons desiring to place wires In the streets and avers that tho Plattsmoiith company paid no attention to the city ordlnanco making this provls'lon. According to the terms of tho or.dlnancc the petition states that all wiring must be done under the personal supervision of tho city electrician-' -and failure to heed this provision renders tho offender subject to- arrest and imprison ment.

According to the cross-petition the city attoiney and council have prepared a fran chise which they are willing to grant tho Plattstnouth company upon application.,' The franchise provides that the' monthly charges for telephone service shall . vary from $1.C0 to $2.26.

MRS. ALLYN GETS A VERDICT Jnr- AuariiH Her I'rnotlrall j- Knll Clnlm Aicnlnal Western Travelers' Protective Assocliitlnn, Mrs. Hattle M. Allyn secured a verdict for $3,010 and $105,35 Interest In the action brought by her against tho Western Trav elers' Accident association to recover on membership her husband hold In the com pany at th time of his death. Mr. Allyn SCH Doctors Mystified. A woman is eick ; some disease peculiar to her sex is fast developing in her systom. She goes to her family physician and tells him a story, but not tho whole story. She holds something back, loses her head, becomes agitated, forgets what she wants to say, and finally con ceals what she ought to have told, and thus completely mystifies tho doctor. Is it any wonder, therefore, that the doctor fails to cure the disease? Still, we cannot blame tho woman, for it is very embarrassing to detail some of tho symptoms of her suffering, even to her family physician. It was for this reason that years ago Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., determined to step iu and help her sex. Having had considerable experience in treating female ills with her Vegetable Compound, she encouraged the women of Amer ica to write to her for advice in regard to their complaints, and being a woman, it was easy for her ailing sisters to pour into her ears every detail of their suffering. In this way she was able to do for them what the phy sicians wore unable to do, simply because she had the proper information to work upon, and from tho little group of women who sought her advice years ago, a great army of her fellow-beings are to day constantly applying for advico and relief, and the fact that more than ono hundred thousand of thorn have been successfully treated by Mrs. Pinkham during tho last year is indicative of tho grand results which are produced by her unequaled experience and training. No physician in the world has had such a training, or has such an amount of information at hand to assist in tho treatment of all kinds of fomalo ills, from the simplest local irritation to tho most complicated diseases of the womb. This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham, in her laboratory at Lynn, Mass., is ablo to do more for the ailing women of America than tho family physician. Any woman, thoreforo, is responsible for her own suffering who will not take the troublo to write to Mrs. Pinkham for advico. , , y vumuuuiaio ttiiil.1i w o am uuiibuinuy puuiisning "' jjiatciui wuiueu usutuiisn ueyona a uouot tlio power oi uyum ii,. j-inKimm's Vegetable Compound conquer female diseases. to 5000 Grateful Letters from Cured Women.
