SOME INTERESTING POINTS RAISED of .Noii-ltcNliliit < H rurnlililiiK a C'oxt lloml Ilmnulit Dp In a Very XIMV I.llflit. Litigation that Is the outgrowth ot the allure of the Citizens' bank In Omaha Is icing heard by Judge Smith at Sidney , In "rcmont county. When the bank failed hero was a large amount due the concern torn Frank C. Johnson , the cashier. Xlr. 'ohnson ' was president of a bank at Ran- lolph and had largo real estate Interests n Fremont county. Just before the failure f the bank at Omaha Johnson transferred U of his Iowa Inlet ests to other members f his family. Now the creditors arc scck- ng to ha\o these conveyances set aside on he ground that they were fraudulent and made for the purpose of cheating the cred tors. Judge Thornell. who Is holding court at Sidney , had been Interested In the case us an attorney and Judge Smith was called n to hear the case. He left for Sidney last evening. An Interesting point was raised In the case of Mary .Marshall and Nina Marshall , executors , against William Sledentopf , ad ministrator. In this suit an action over the ownership of certain real estate , a motion was made to require the defendants , who are residents of Nebraska , to furnish a cost bond. The defendants set up the allegation that while they were living In Nebraska they were officially residents of Iowa as executors of an Iowa estate. The point Is one which has not been passed upon by any court , but Judge Smith granted the appllca- lon of the plaintiff and made an order that the cost bond be furnished. In the suit of Arthur Evans against F. II Iced and others , In which the plaintiff se cured heavy damages for personal Injury he motion ot the defendant for n new trla s overruled. In the case of Martha C. Glttcns against Sarah Peterson and others , n motion to strike out an amendment to the petition was overruled. In the case of the state of Iowa , on he relation of Sophia Roeder , against F i. Schoenlng , a suit brought to compel the defendant to support an Illegitimate child : > t which the relater was the mother ant of which Schoenlng was alleged to be tin , father , an amendment was filed to the answer of tliu defendant. In which lie alleged Hint since the birth of the child Its Mother had married a man other tnan the defendant , and that thereby the burden o supporting the child had been shifted to the husband of the mother. The court took 11 different view and sustained the demurrci of the state to the amendment to the an swer. Jennie Hay commenced suit In the dis trict court for a divorce from her husbam George L. Ray. The petitioner asserts li her petition that she was married to Rnj "n Council Bluffs In August , 1SS3 , and that they lived together until In December , 1SS9 when Ray deserted her and has since re fused to contribute to her support.

Swanson , the North western railway section hand who was killed at noon Saturday by falling from a handcar while returning to his dinner , oc curred yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock , At the tlmo Swanson's fellow laborers on the handcar thought the accident was due to the Intense heat , and that the man be came unconscious and fell from the car. The fact was developed yesterday that his death was due to pitiable circumstances. Swanson was a hard working man with a family of six small children dependent upon his exer tions. It Is reported by his friends and neighbors that the family had been reduced to the direst extremities , and liad been suf fering for food for several days. Saturday was the first day's work ho had had for four months. Ho left homo without having eaten any supper the night before or break fast on Saturday morning. After working all morning under the burning sun , weak and faint from physical starvation , his strength gave way and ho fell backward In front ot the moving handcar. Swanson's friends say that ho was not communicative and none of them knew of the desperate straits ho and his family were In or his wants would have been promptly supplied , Ho was overjoyed nt the prospect of getting work again , and while suffering the pangs of unappeaiilblc hunger he did tils full share of the morning's work with the section gang , The funeral yesterday was largely at tended , and these facts becoming known lent additional sympathy to the bereaved family. _ The women of the Broadway Methodist Eplccopal church will have a trolley party to Lake XIanawa next Thursday afternoon and evening.

CxPtrir The complaints of citizens living In the southern , portions of the Second , and Third wards. of the filthy condition ot Slud creek have caused the city ofllclals to start an In vestigation. Mayor Ensor ssid yesterday that the creek was a. regular epidemic breeder and that something must be done to abate the nuisance. The creek carries off refuse water from the stock yards and for a short distance -below Hammond's Is boxed up. Where It Is not covered the stench Is something awful and residents In that vicinity say that It Is almost Impossi ble to remain at homo on account of the smell thcEc warm days. The expense of boxing the creek , which Is nothing more than an open sewer , would be great , but the mayor says that something must be done to protect health and property , no matter what the cost may be. A great many of the residents who now make complaint to the city authorities own their property and cannot move away on that account , neither can they sell or rent their places , for the reason that no one would accept a house rent free anywhere near the creek. Just what will be done has not been decided upon , as Manager nabcock of the stock yards company Is away and will not return for a couple of weeks , and It Is not thought that anything can be done until after a con ference with him. There Is n stagnant pool of. water at Thirty-sixth and L streets which Is consid ered a menace to the health of that section of 'the city. Besides being a nuisance , a number of cows which are pastured In the neighborhood are allowed to drink the water. .Milk Inspector Carroll discovered this fact and has asked for Instructions. He was ordered to notify the owners of the cows not to allow the cattle to drink of the stagnant water under any circumstances or arrests would follow. The owners of the property will be notified today to have the pool filled or drained , Ititllriinil C Coroner Burket held an Inquest yesterday on the remains of the unknown man who was killed by the Burlington flyer at Sav age's crossing Monday afternoon. The crow of a freight train , which was standing on a siding at the crossing , testified as to the accident and the Jury brought In a verdict to the effect that deceased came to his death while trespassing on the railroad company's property. The Identity of the deceased Is not known. A card was found In his pocket from afreo medical dispensary In Denver which bore the name of Charles Boyer. No money was found In the dead man's clothes and the remains will bo buried by the county. _ Hlvnlry for City Printing. Bids 'for the city printing have been asked for from the different newspapers published In the city. At present the Tribune Is doing the work at the legal rate.
