MATTER IS TAKEN INTO C0TJBT Fifty-Seven Thousand Dollar De manded from Those Who Owned I Stock In the Defendant Concern. Fearful glana-Mer j of deadly microbes occurs when throat and lung diseases are treated with Dr. King's New Discovery. 60o and it For sale by Beaton Drug Co. Twenty of the creditors of the Inde pendent Telephone company have filed claims aggregating $57,0000. They are those whose claims were unsecured and consequently left out by the terms of the decree of foreclosure, which put them at the bottom of the list, even sub sequent to the bonds. It Is contended, however, that In the original sale of bonds by the ' Independ ent Telephone company, shares of stock were offered free as a speoial Inducement to the purchaser of bonds. Under the laws of the state of Ne braska, after the corporate property of a company is exhausted, there immedi ately follows the legal obligation rest ing upon the several stockholders to pay the balance due upon their unpaid sub scriptions on the stock so held by them. The petitioning creditors allege that such unpaid subscriptions would be sufficient to pay all the debts due and owing the general creditors of the insolvent com pany. It is said that those who got stock of the company for nothing are likely to he compelled now to pay par value to the receiver In order that he may make good Its debts. Provision of the Law. In behalf of the twenty creditors. Attor neys Charles S. Elgutter and Joel W. West have tiled a petition in federal court, asking that the(r judgments against the Insolvent company be allowed as prior and superior Hens to that of the bond holders and to the liens of the stock holders themselves upon the funds in the possession of, or under .the control of the special master. The petition also asks that the special master be required to ascertain who the bondholders are, Who are also holders of stocks, the amount of stock held by them, and the amount of unpaid subscription due on the preferred stock. It Is "also asked that the special master be required to ascertain the proportionate amount each of the stockholders ought to pay upon stock tn order to raise a fund suffic ient to pay the claims and judgments of the twenty creditors, who were left by the terms of the decree of foreclosure. They ask that the special master be required to pay out of such fund the amount due to satisfy these claims, with Interest and costs prior to any distri bution of funds to any bondholders owing unpaid subscriptions of stock. Federal Judge Smith has made an order setting aside $60,000 " of the funds now in the hands of the special master for this contingency. Leon Shapiro Run Over and Killed by Dodge Street Car Leon, the 2-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Shapiro, 1121 North Twentieth street, was run over and instantly killed by a northbound Dodge street car In front of the family residence yesterday af'.et noon at 4 o'clock. The mother stood .'n the doorway of the home and saw tu child ground to death under the wheels of the car, unable to do anything to save the boy. The front wheels of the car crushed the child to death. The motorman, Wlltar Hathaway, 218 North Nineteenth street, put on the emergency brake and stopped the car before the wheels had passed entirely over the body. Frantic with grief the mother stood close by while the motorman backed the car so the mangled body could be removed. The car, It Is said, was going at a elow rate of speed. The boy was standing near the curb when the motorman first noticed him. When the car got within fifty feet of the boy he started across the street and was run over and killed. The motorman and the conductor, J. H. Roberts, 1307 North Twentieth street, were arrested and released on bond. Another child of Mr. and Mrs. Shapiro died two weeks ago. M (cm 11 y Sells-Floto Show Comes Next Week The great Sells-Floto consolidated show Is booked to appear in ths city on Friday, August 30. For many years now, this popular priced attraction has been coming back greatly enlarged in every way and positively giving more for the money than any kindred attraction uow touring the country. This season, the man agement, announces that they have added many novel and special features to those which are considered a part and parcel of the conventional circus. Amongst these are several European novelties which have never before been seen in this country, the wonder of it all being how the Sells-Floto people can give such a marvelous performance at such a small price. That they are able to do so, however. Is proven by the tact that for thre3 j ears now they have cut the time honored Price In half and made money by dolns so, all of which goes to show, that even In the circus world, and where the daily ex penses run up into the thousands, the theory of popular prices is practical. Two performances will be given here on the day the circus arrives. The grand street parade will, as usual, be a spectacle of more than ordinary magnificance.

Powell, the well known automobile man, who was there with his wife and children. Mr. Powell has a brother, Sidney Powell, who has made good before the footlights, but this Is the first occasion Clarke's friends have had to dis cover that the older brother is likewise talented.

Accord ing to the notices received the affair 'was a Weber and Fields burlesque on Victor Herbert's American opera, "Natoma." Clarke Powell had the role of "Young Man Afraid of Herplcide;" Harry Burkley was "Chief Mud In the Head," and Mrs. Powell "Whispering Zephyr," but some one said it was a scream. A talented young woman from Kansas City played the picture show music, and, altogether, the performance was pronounced one of the cleverest ever given at this gay summer resort. The audience in cluded,' beside the cottagers, the gentle fisher folk who reside on the island and take visitors' money for letting them pretend they made the haul. Two Informal Parties.

Woman Discovers a New Mountain Peak SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 23,-Mlss Dora Keen of Philadelphia, who led an expedlj tlon up Mount Blackburn, reaching the summit May 19, and eliminating tt from the list of Alaska's unsealed peaks, ar rived In Seattle today on her way home. The scaling of Mount Blackburn was the principal objeot of Miss MoKeen's Journey to Alaska, but after accomplish ing her aim, she extended her efforts and traveled over Bkolal pass and down the White river to the Yuton, winning' the honor of being the first woman to make the trip. ' "Climbing Mount Blackburn was more dangerous than difficult," said Miss Keen tonight. "We made the ascent too late In the season for absolute safety, frequent avalanches Interrupting our progress. I believe the ascent would be a simple matter if made In April before the now becomes soft" Miss Keen said she believed the height of the mountain to be 17,600 feet Instead of 18,140, as shown by the maps. As the party n eared the summit they observed an enormous peak on the Canadian side of the line. "It was far away and very high," said Miss Keen. "I could not find tt on the map and we could not see It when wo were below 12,000 feet. I could find no one who knew anything of this peak." Old Fiddlers' Contest. Elegant Prizes. Courtland Beach.
