The suit involved the new garnishment law enacted by the lest legislature, which eabjecta 10 per cent of wagea dne to garnishment. Jadga Kennedy held that this lo per cent amy be iaoluded ia the $500 exemp tion allowed the bead of a family by atatate aad it may aot be garnished un lets the total personal property, indud iag the 10 per cent of the wages, amounts to tf00. This will make the lawinopera tiveiatao collection of debts against a large number of wage-earners who have no lands or lota aad whose persoaalty ia worth leaa thaa the exempted amount. Thedeemioa was rendered ia the case of Oorwis F. Jones, a Union Pacific engi neer, against the Union Pacific, William O'Brien aad Gharlea F. Baaohman. Jones, through hk attorney, T. W.

The case waa tried Thursday and Judge Kennedy granted the desired injunction. The same ques tion has been raised several times before, bat this is the first adjudication of it. Theenbetaaceof Judge Kennedy's de ehaon is contained in this paragraph: Aad the coart finds that the total per sonal property owned by said plaintiff at the time of the iaaaance of said sam monn ia garnishment, and on the date of the aBewerof the garnishee was 9J00 iadading wagea doe from said Uaioa Pacific Railroad company, aad that ssid plniatiff is, aad was, a resident of the 8tate of Nebraska, the bead of a family and bsd neither lands, town tots nor hoaaas. subject to exemption aa a home etead under the laws of this state, and iseatitled under the exemption laws of thia state to ffOOia personal property, which may include wagea earned, and ia addition there to ninety per centam ot say wages owing to him by any per son or oorporation; that the plaintiff filed the afiadavit reqnirsd, cUimisg hie said axamatiOBs; that the defendant Union Paeifio Bailroad company with held and withholds the sum of $5106 from the plaintiff and threatens to pay same to said defendant, William O'Brien, justice of the peace, sad refaeed to ap peal from the order of ssid justice to pay mm into court; that ssid plaintiff has no remedy at law and cannot protect himself against the injury threatened.

The first session waa held at the Orpheus ball Wednesday rtvening, and the .Commercial club gave them aniaforaal reception and smoker. The subjects touched on by the speak ers were "Relation of the Jobber to the Retailers, the purs food law and a talk on paroela post. At the does of ths session the following were re-elected: M. A. Hostetter of Sheltoa, president; W. H. Avery of Tildes, secretary; Henry Bolton of Schuyler, treasurer. While the reception was given the association by ths Commercial dab was a success, it would have been mach greater had our business men honored the occasion and themselves by being present The papers that were reed and the talks would hnve been of especial interest to them, and they oould have in many ways assisted the Commercial club and the committees in the entertaining of the visitors. A man giving his name as Steve Thomas, and daiming to hail from Albion was hanging around in the vicinity of the Ossein home Monday forenoon, and when Mr. Oassin came home for dinner hie wife told him aboat the stranger's actions.
