Kr.ini Saturday's Dully. This afternoon the case of Annie lo!lie Gaster vs. the Woodmen of fhr; World, was given to the jury following the arguments of the at torneys in the triangle ruit. i'ayment of the insurance policy was contested by the defendant com pany on the grounds that the late Mr. (taster had made false state ments in his application and also th.it he had met death by suicide. This stand w;ls opposed by Attor ney Matthew Gering for Mrs. Gaster and Attorney George Tunnison. of Omaha, who represented the mother of the deceased man, as intervenor, contesting with the widow for the amount of the policy. Both the plaintiff and intervenor contend the application was in proper form and that the deceased came to his death fn in natural causes. The mother, who is intervening in the case, denied the validity of the marriage existing between Mr. and a great deal of money and is one of the most important steps that have hoen made toward beautifying the .-.urroundings of the Masonic Home. Heretofore the travelers through the city on the trains have had a mere glimpse of the very handsome home buildings and the chief sight has been the foreground of sheds and buildings and bank of dirt and these will be willed out if the present plans carry out as they seem assured of doing.
