EVERYBODY HAPPY ABOUT THE CITY HALL of the DUtrlct Court In < lie of IMilltlim Annlimt Heed In nrvernrfl by the Stnte'a IllKliciit Tribunal. The reversal by the supreme court of the ruling of Judge Smith of the district court In the case of Phillips against Herd , city treasurer , Is in effect to place the city upon a cash basis. The finding of the supreme court Is that the warranls Issued by the city for current expenses must bo paid out of the current revenues and that the current revenues cannot be diverted for the pur pose of paying off the city's outstand'ng ' obligations. In short the decision Is th.it the warrants issued for current expenses take precedence over the outstanding war rants. The suit brought by N. C. Phillips against W. II. Reed , city treasurer , was a friendly one to determine the status of old and new warrants under the new code. The new code , which went into effect October of last year , provides that warrants drawn for the payment of current expenses of the city gov ernment shall bo paid out of the current revenues. In order to enable cities to dispose of their outstanding obligations power was given them to fund them or Issue bonds for tholr payment , although this the law does not make compulsory. The purpose of the now law was , H Is generally conceded , to place cities on a cash basis and prevent the expenditures In any year exceeding the revenue. Treasurer Reed on assuming office , owing to the diversity of opinion existing as to Ihe Interpretation of the now law , refused to pay either the new or old warrants until Ihe question was decided by the courts. Ac cordingly N. C. Phillips , city clerk , applied to the district court for a writ of mandamus to compel the city treasurer to pay a small warrant Issued to him In April for current expenses. The petition set forth that It was the intent of the new law that warrants drawn for current expenses were prior claims to outstanding warrants of previous years. The city demurred on two grounds. First , that It was not the Intention of the new law to make current warrants prior claims , and , second , that if such was the Intention then the law was unconstitutional , as it would Interfere with the vested rights of the holders of the old warrants to have their claims raid In order of their presentation and registration , which had been the rule In force heretofore. ncclnloit. Judge Smith of the district court , In his decision , held that there was no doubt as to the intention of the law to give current warrants a prior claim to old warrants on current revenues , but sustained the de murrer of the city on 'the grounds that such a law was unconstitutional. An appeal was at once taken to the supreme premo court , where the ruling of Judge Smith has been reversed in an opinion written by Judge Waterman , Judges Robin son and Granger dissenting. The questjon as to what rights and remedies the holders of the old warrants food was not up before the court , but In the opinion the court says if these claims are valid they can doubtless bo put in Judgment and be collected by proper process. The decision of the supreme court was re ceived with a considerable amount of satis faction by the city officials nnd employes , as their warrants for salaries since April 1 can now bo paid by City Treasurer Reed. The salaries for the last two months have been paid out of the police fund In accordance with a resolution passed by the city coun cil. Under the ruling of the supreme court this action of the city council In ordering salary warrants paid from the police fund has turned out nil right , but as a prominent attorney said yesterday It might have placcC the city council In a dilemma had the de cision of the supreme court been in favor of the old warrants. City Attorney Wadsworth telegraphed yesterday for a certified copy of the opinion of the supreme court and until that arrives no action will be taken by City Treasurer Reed looking to the payment of the warrants Issued for this year's current expenses. Of warrants issued for current expenses some $24,000 Is outstanding , but as there Is over $40,000 at present in the general fund they can bo paid off ns soon as the certified copy of the supreme court opinion reaches here. That the city will take some action as soon as circumstances permit to provide some means for paying off the old warrants Is not doubted , but it Is doubtful If any such stops will bo taken until a decision is had In the suit brought by J. J. Shea against the city , In which be attacks the validity of the outstanding Indebtedness. This suit was heard last July before Judge Towncr and his decision Is anxiously looked for by the city oftlclals and other Interested parties. Chairman Sayles of the finance committee of the city council when seen yesterday stated that as soon as n decision was had In the Shea case , providing It was favorable to the city , steps would undoubtedly bo taken to provide means of paying off the old war rants. He was In favor of funding the out standing Indebtedness rather than have the warrants placed In Judgment against the city and he was of the opinion that the former would be the means that the city would adopt to pay off these old warrants. City Attorney Wadsworth , although the ruling of the supreme court was contrary to bis Interpretation of the new law , was much pleased with the decision , as it placed the city on a cash basis and Insured It taking care of Its current expenses. Mayor Jennings was also much pleased over the decision. The amount of outstanding warrants which will have to bo funded Is something over 13G,000. Illwtrlrt Court Mnttern. Julgj Walter I. Smith occupied the bench In the district court yesterday and will con tinue to preside until Judge Macy's return from Nebraska. The motion by the defendant for a new trial In the personal damage suit of John | Mackrlll against the Omaha & St. Louis ' Railway Company was argued and taken 1 under advisement by the court.

Clarey in one of the most peculiar cases ever In the Iowa courts was filed In the district court today In which she denies each and every allegation except the fact that she admits that C. K. Mead , as assignor of plaintiff , delivered to the Saturday Review Publish ing company $1,000 under an oral contract and under the following circumstances. At the time there was pending before the city council a gas ordinance and a. valuable franchise was about to be granted or ex tended by the city to the Capital City Gas Light company to which numerous citizens were opposed. The Saturday Review , a paper published In the city of Des Moincs with a large circulation and considerable In fluence , so the answer claims , was opposing this ordinance and a contract was entered Into between C. K. Mead and Frank Perry , as manager , and J. E. Clarey as editor of the above named paper that it would cease Its opposi tion to the ordinance upon receipt of $1,000. Plaintiff avers that this contract was null , and void because against public policy. The money In question finally passed Into the hands of J. G. Jordan until the matter could bo adjudicated by the courts. Plaintiff ad mits the delivery of this $1,000. During the fight the Saturday Review opposed the gas company and agreed with Mead to cease their opposition In consideration of the $1,000 and at the time of entering Into this contract they Intended to make the matter public ; that they went before the city coun cil and exposed the whole matter and their contract with C. K. Mead was void because the money was obtained by the fraud of said I ubllshlng company. The plaintiff therefore asks the dismissal of the petition of Inter vention and Judgment against the Intervener and defendant. Shot by itu Unknown Mull. SHELDON , la. , Oat. 28.r-Speclal. ( ) M.

While up in the hay mow he heard some one open the barn door , but supposed it was his hired man. As ho was coming down the stairs he noticed a man standing In the outside door. He was about to speak to him when the man shot htm , the bullet striking him In the ab domen , passing through his kidneys and the ball lodging just under the surface of the skin near his back bone , where it was cut out , being of 44 caliber. Mr. Case did not lose consciousness. Ho says the man stood looking at him for a second or two , then turned and ran toward the railroad track. Case crowled to the nearest residence nnd gave the alarm , but as yet the man has not been apprehended. The physicians give very little hope for Mr. Case's recovery.

A chill air and a lowering sky In the morning , a sudden rush of heat in the middle of the afternoon , Ihcn a cutting wind nfter sunset such Is the history of an autumn day In the north temperate zone. This Is the weather that threatens not only th avowed Invalids , but many who fancy themselves stronger than they arc. It strikes thorn In the back. It stops the free action of the kidneys. Then come * feelings of cold , headache , nervousness , nnd , worst of all , Ihe grinding , culling rheiimallsm which may last for years , defying common remedies , liniment , etc. The worst of diseases begin In the kidneys , and In the fickle autumn wealhcr lh seeds of danger nro sown. Avoid the saddest consequences of thcso uncertain days. Strengthen your klducyw with Warner's Saf Cure , P. W. Lewis , of Clyde , Ohio , writes : "I had been confined to the house for months with sciatic rheu matism , not -ible to get Into of out of bed without help , and had despaired of ever being able to walk again. A friend advised mo to take Warner's Safe Cure. 1 told him I had been lame so long I had no hopes of getting well. Hut n drowning man will grasp at n straw , so I sent for Iwo bottles , and when I hail taken them I walked to my barn , with the aid of two canes. "I got more Warner's Safe Cure , and It served the scl.uio rheumatism as Admiral Dewey served the Spanish ships at Ma nilla. It also knocked my old enemy , kidney trouble. I was soon able to dispense with my canes and to go about my business. " The connection between the kidneys and the rhuutnatUm was probably obvious to Mr. Lewis , but It may not bo to everybody who reads the story of his rwo\ery. The diseased kidneys , slug gish and Incompetent , Instead of taking dead tissue from the blood and hurrying it out of the body , acted ns n dam. In fiuch a case , with every beat of the heart , the blood Is laden-with u substance as truly poisonous as arsenle. or strychnine. But It is a lingering poison , except when the rheumatism touches the heart ; Ihen it kills like lightening. There Is no hope for the rheumatic unless he attend to his kidneys and , by making them sound nnd strong , rid his system of the enemy. There Is more than hope ; t hero Is certainly of renewed health in Warner's Safe Cure. Can any fair minded man , or woman , doubt this , after reading Mr. Lewis' letlcr ? tance from Sioux City al > out twenty-five miles. It is said further that a syndicate of eastern capitalists Is behind the scheme. The men employed nnd others who seem to understand the matter refuse to talk. Indleled for Murder.
