'tirely broken them up as has
several of our friends to whom we

Tbe Buccess ol J. C fcjtewart's produc

go to theatres go there to laugh and be
made happy. They want things that
will please them and not send them home

roaring musical farce comedy, it causes
hetirtj , innocent laughter from bein

The readers of the IIebald will re
member of reading an account not long
ago of Ernest Rottmann being the cause
of a young gir. committing, suicide at
Palmyra. The following is clipped from
an exchange:
"Ernest Kottmann of Palmyra seems
to be in trouble all tbe time. A few
months ago he wa? arrested at Palmyra,
charged with committing rape upon a
farmer's daughter living near Palmyra,
He was acquitted, and the girl commit
ted suicide. It was made so warm lor
bim that he left Palmyra, returning in a
few weeks, only to be arrested charged
with Belling liquor without a license.
He got out of this ecrape and found a
dozen or more similar charges again&t
him. Then he went to Cortland. A
soon as he got to the town he was slapped
into tbe county jail on the charge of
cohabiting with a certain widow of that
place. He was fined and went back to
Palmyra. In a day or two an officer
from Cortland arrived and took Rott
maa back on th charge of carrying con
cealed weapons while there. He paid
his liie, returned to Palmyra and is open
for the next engagement."
A new idea embraced in Ely's Crcara
Balm. Catarrh is cured by cleansing
and healing, not by drying up. It ii not
a liqnid or snuff, but is easily applied
into the nostrils. Its effect is magical
and a thorough treatment will cure the
worst cases. Pi ice oOc.

The case of Aura 11. Wh'te vs. the
Buiiinton Wluntury Relief Department,
recently decided by Jude Ramsey, in
one of more than oidinary interest.
Matthew Cuing n pealed fur the plain
till and Bvron Cltlk lvq. for defendant.
This was an action to iieover of defen
dant $1,000 for insurance on die life of
Linydon 1. White, husband of plain
tiff, who died September 20th, IMjO.
D ceased was a locomotive engineer in
the employ of the C. Ii et Q R. R. Com
pany, and on July 21, 1800. gave mi ap
plication for life insurance and insurance
against death by accident in the sum of
51,000, toYne S. A. Redway, who wtis
general solicitor of defendant for in
surance risks. The name, age, occupa
tion, place of residence and class s
graded by monthly wages received, were
taken of deceased on Paid day by said
Redway, and duly earned on the bookp
of tho defendant. On payment for the
month of July, 1890, $4.10 was deducted
from the pay roll of deceased as and for
premium to apply on tho insurance of
$1,000. Tiiia $4.10 was deducted from
decease el's monthly wages for July, 1890,
aboui tho Sih of August, lfOO. Rule
49, of defendants' rules of regulations
requires all applicants, for life insurance
other than death by accident to undergo
a satisfactory medical examination.
Deceased was taken sick on July 22,
1S0O was able to be around for a few
days thereafter, but finally was confined
to his bed and died on September, 20th,
1S90, of typhoid pneumonia.
On August 7, 1899, Mr. J. E. Barwick,
an officer of defendant, notified
Mr. J. C. Bartlett, of Chicago,
general superintendent of defendant that
deceased, at that time was sick. On
September 10, lS'JO, forty three days after
date of the notice from Mr. Burwic k no
tified Mr. D. Hawks worth, superinten
dent of motive pewer at Plattsmouth,
that deceased was not a member of re
lief fund, never having been examined
by defendant's medical examiner, and
therefore not entitled to the sick benefits
under a policy of insurance. And on
the said 19th d.iy of September, 1890,
about forty-two days after the 4.10 was
deducted from e'e ee.isf d's p:iy fer July.
I to'-'-'. 6S tur oren.ii'Mi t i i - 1 (hi) in.
Eurar.ce, Mr. B.irtlett, general superin
tendent ef defendent, by letter of that
date to Mr. I Liv. ke -woi t'i, direct eel the
return ; f saiel mmcy to deceased. This
ret;:: n of the ij'4.10 was made en pteiii
i) r 29, 1S99, in the. form of a check for
that fum, whir h plaintiff and iirr hus
b ir.d refund to accept. This check was
tendered a few hours before the c! :th of
pliii-itlff'd husband. Tii" court tinds
from all evidence:
1. That entering the name of plain
tiff's husband on the bfloks of defen
ehuit, pursuant to tho application taken
by S. A. Redway, defendants general
solicitor, as a member cf the relief fund
and the; deduction umlcr the by laws oi
defendant of $4.10 from deceased's pay
for tho month of July, 1890, as a pre
mium on tho policy of if 1,000, and re
taining said money constitutes a contract
of insurance.
2. That it is not absolutely neceas-ry
that a policy of insurance be iasned to
bind the parties thereto.
3. That the tender by check of $4.10
in not a legal tender a contemplated by
law for that amount of money.
4. That the receipt and retention, of
the $4.10 as premium on the insurance,
for a period of more than forty days and
in tho absence of any fraud on the part
of flccesed or his beneficiaries, without
tbe medical examination required by rule
49 of defendants rules of regulations,
operates as a waver of the by-laws of de
fendant requiring euch medical examin
ation. 5. The defendant hkrijg entered de
ceased name upea its books as a member
of the Relief Fund and baying deducted
and returned the $1.10 from the pay roll
of deceasod as and for premium on tbe
insurance and having failed end neglect
ed to make the medical examination as
required by its own by-laws, in the ab
sence of fraud on the part of deceased
and his bencficaries, cannot by reason of
its own lasches evade liability for tho
insurance.
Judgment for plaintiff was awarded
for $1,000 and costs of suit.
All humors of the scalp, tetter sores,
dandrnff cured, and falling hair checked;
hence, baldness prevented by using Hall's
Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer.
Between two and three o'clock yester
day afternoon the bellows broke in the
blacksmith shop. The blacksmith force
were compelled to uit work for the rest
of the afternoon, so that the break could
be repalied. They were- all at work
again this morning.
