COURT TAKES POINT UNDER ADVISEMENT
Mrs. Jennie Matthla Given a Verdict
Against an Accident Association
on Account of Death of
Hasbnnd.
The trial of S. P. Hughes, a solicitor
employed by the Equitable Home associa
tion, on the charge of conducting a build
ing and loan business without lawful au
thority, was begun In the district court
yesterday afternoon. F. R. Beeman, local
manager of the association, was Indicted
on a similar charge, and triatrial has been
assigned to follow that of Hughes.
It is contended by the prosecution that
Hughes and Beeman, as representatives of
the Equitable Home association, were do
ing business In the state without having
first secured the requisite authority from
the auditor of state, such as all building
and loan associations are required to have.
For the defense It Is contended that the
Equitable Home association did not come
under the Iowa laws governing building
and loan associations.
In a stipulation filed with the court yes
terday the defendant admitted that neither
he nor the association had authority from
the state auditor to do business In Iowa.
Only one witness, Mrs. M. J. Severlne, was
Introduced by the state to prove that the
defendant, Hughes, had Induced her to
invest her money In one of the associa
tion's contracts. When the authorities be
gan investigating the methods of the as
sociation, according to the testimony of
Mrs. Severlne, the . defendant offered to
take back her contract and pay her more
money for It than she had Invested and
had tried to persuade her to sign a paper
releasing him from all liability.
At the close of Mrs. Severlne's testimony
the state rested its 'case and counsel for
the defense moved to direct a verdict for
Hughes, on the grounds that the Indictment
was defective, In that It was not broad
enough and failed to charge a violation
of the acts of the twenty-ninth general
assembly. Judge Wheeler reserved his rul
ing on the motion until this morning.
Holds Death an Accident.
The jury in the suit of Mrs. Jennie L.
Matthis, administratrix of the estate of
the late E. R. Matthis, against the Aetna
Life Insurance company, brought In a
verdict yesterday morning finding for the
plaintiff for the full amount sued for. The
Jury had been out since Wednesday morn
ing. In this case Mrs. Matthis sued for
12,000 and interest under a policy of acci
dent Insurance held by her husband at the
time of his death. The company' resisted
payment, contending that Matthis' death
waa due to a utroke of apoplexy and not
to an accident. Matthis, who waa an
engineer on the Union Pacific, was found
unconscious in his room in a hotel In Grand
Island, and after lingering for several days
died without regaining consciousness. . His
death was attributed to cerebral hemor
rhage, and it was claimed by the family
that the circumstances indicated that Mat
thla had In some manner fallen with such
violence as to rupture a blood vessel in
the brain, while on the other hand the
.Insurance company claimed that death
resulted from a stroke- of apoplexy.
In the suit ot George Ouderklrk against
the Petersen & Schoenlng cumpuny to re
cover 6300 damages for Injury to his barn
by Are, Judge Wheeler yesterday morning
took the case from the jury and ordered a
verdict for the defendant company, on the
grounds that there was no evidence show
ing that the defendant company was in
any way responsible for the fire.

Arrest Ends Uatlna;.
Emit Barrett, Edward Burlos, Alphonso
Wulet and George Larampe, members of a
party from Omaha, which spent the day
at Augustine's on this side of the river,
flBhing and otherwise enjoying themselves,
were arrested last evening, charged with
assaulting Gus Browelelt, a young farmer
ot Lewis township.
According to Browelelt, who rode into the
city and complained to the authorities, the
party, after driving through his farm and
over his sowed Aelds, commenced shooting
Indiscriminately, several bullets passing
dangerously close to Broweleit's head and
others near the small school bouse at the
time the children were leaving for their
homes.
Browelelt expostulated with the men and
demanded at first $16 and then 16 as com
pensation for the damage done his place.
The men, all ot whom are Frenchman,
laughed at his request and when ha at
tempted to back It up at the point of a
revolver they "stuck him up" as he ex
pressed It, with their rifles.

tate of William Haaktns, who was drowned

ing for examination touching his refusal to
turn over certain property belonging to the
estate, which It la alleged he has In his

monds and 50 In cash belonging to his dead
brother which he declines to account for.
Prisoner Becomes Insane.
Charles Pullman, who waa serving a
thirty days' sentence in the county jail
for the theft of chickens, was committed to
St. Bernard's hospital yesterday by the
commissioners on Insanity. For the last
few days Pullman had been acting
strangely and gave signs of being mentally
unbalanced. Wednesday evening he per
sisted In tearing his clothing off and walk
ing around the main corridor of the Jail In
a state of nudity. Testerday morning he
followed up the disrobing stunt by attempt
ing to dash his brains out against the bars
of his cell. Pullman became so violent
that he had to bo placed In a straight

Contest In Arithmetic. ,
Pupils from the fourth to the eighth
grade In all of the city schools will engage
In sn arithmetic contest today. This con
test will comprise an examination upon thi
multiplication tables, work In accuracy sncl
rapidity and mental problems and will be
from t to 10:30 a. m.
A few days ago an old fashioned spelling
contest was held In all of the schools In
which every pupil took part and It Is
thought by Superintendent Clifford that by
laying special stress upon these branches
and having days of contests that a greater
degree of jrroflrlency can be secured on the
part of the pupils. The pupils have fallen
In with the idea and much Interest Is taken
In these contests.

GOLD DISCOVERER 1$ DEAD
Man Wbo First Lorntea It In Black
Hills Pasaes Away Near Scene
of Ills Find.
DEADWOOD, a D., May 19 (fipeclnl.)
H. N. Ross, the man who first discovered
gold In tho Black Hills, passed nway at
his home in Custer on Tuesday morning.
Ross was sent out by the United States
government with tha Custer expedition,
which passed over this country In the early
days of 187S, and It was ho who prospected
the various streams for placer gold. Prof.
Jenney, who accompanied the expedition,
made a report unfavorable to the presence
of gold In the IBack Hills, but the report
that Ross made was responsible for the
country's settlement at that time by tha
whites. He said that gold was to be found
on every stream he prospected nnd In pay
ing quQ-'tltles. That was enough, and, de
spite the fact that Prof. Jenney had re
ported to the Interior department that It
"was useless to look for gold in the shales
and schists of the Black Hills," it was not
many weeks before the trails leading west
were crowded with future residents and the
Block Hills became a part of civilized
America, despite tho efforts of a few self
important government officials and the en
tire Sioux nation.
Boss had an experience in the Black Hills
and the country surrounding It that would
have mnde the reputation of many of the
self-styled border heroes. In 1873 lie made
the first discovery of gold on French creclt,
in Custer county, and since that time had
made his home there, dodging soldiers and
Indians for the first few years of his occu
pancy. CIVIL WAR VETERA GETS CASH

veyed the letter to Commandant Linn.
Black was summoned before that official,
ami, not denying the authorship of tho
letter, was dlshororably discharged from
the home. The deposed veteran appealed
to tha Soldiers' Home board, which sus
tained the action of the commandant.
Tho state administration changed hands,
and when a new Soldiers' Home board was
formed Black brought his case before tha
body and was reinstated In Uie home.
Then it was that Black made up Ms Mind
that he was entitled to damages for tho
alleged injuries he had sustained at tho
hands of the board and the commandant
He instituted an action for damages In
tho com of $S,0U0, but when the case was
called for trial Judge MeOee, of the Sev
enth Judicial circuit, threw It out of court
nnd the defendants thought that settled
the matter. But it did not, for the veteran
carried the case to the supreme court,
which held that e had a cause of action
and retOrned tha case to tho circuit court,
where it had been dismissed. Now that
Black has accepted a settlement the ease
will never coma to trial.
