GOLD MINE DEAL IN COURT
Judge Thornoll Patiently Listens to the
Contention of Lawyers ,
COMPLETION OF THE HEARING IS REACHED
Intimation tlint Doyle Prniiiluluntly
buuurrd 11 .IiiilKinent Aitalnnt
Ilurim nnd that It Should
lie Set Anlde.
For over ten hours yesterday Judge
Thornell In the district court sat patiently
listening to the arguments of counsel upon
tliu motion , to sot aside the Judgment taken
by James A. Doyle fln his now famous suit
against John F. Burns , president of the
Portland Gold Alining company of Colorado.
In order to complete the hearing yeatcrday
Judge Thornell held a special session last
night , at which John N. Baldwin , counsel
for Doyle , made his dosing reply to Air.
Patterson's concluding argument in support
of the motion.
When court convened yesterday morning
.Mr. Baldwin resumed his argument and
spoke for six hours with a' adjournment
of an hour for dinner. Air. Patterson theti
followed with his closing argument nnd
spoke until court adjourned al 6 o'clock.
Air. Haldwtn Informed the court that he
would llko to make a reply to Air. Patterson
and Judge Thornell agreed to hold a special
Hesilon In the evening.
Air. Baldwin's argument was the conten
tion that Burns was served with personal
notice of the action hero ; tliat he appeared
and filed a motion to quash service of this
notico. Hums contended that this notice
constituted simply a special appearance.
That question was thoroughly argued to
Judge Smith , who overruled Burns' motion
and held that It was not a special , but a gen
eral appearance. It therefore became neces
sary for Burns to plead. However , before he
did anything further In the courts here ho
went to Colorado and secured an Injunction
against Doyle there , restraining him from
continuing his case In the Iowa courts : that
In this proceeding In Colorado he took the
action already had in the court here to baie
his application for nn Injunction Uieie : that
the proceeding In Colorado was illegal and
unlawful ; that Uurns used the knowledge
ho had of the pendancy of the action here in
the proceeding there ; that Doyle upon
proper advice refused to comply with the
Colorado order and took his Judgment ; that
Burns was now In this court asking to set
asldo this Judgment , but In order to do this
two things must be shown first , that Burns
liad a defense , and second , a reasonable ex
cuse for not answering and preventing Judg
ment here. Burns , he contended , had abso
lutely failed to show any reason or excuse
such as contemplated by the statute , via. :
accident , mistake , death , surprise or lack
of knowledge. None of these existed. Ho
further contended that Burns had delicti the
processed of the Iowa court and had , and IB ,
using the processes of the court of Colorado
for oppressing Doyle ; that the Iowa court ,
having Jurisdiction of the parties and the
subject matter and having acquired that
Jurisdiction first , the law and the constitu
tion of the United States required the courts
of Colorado to recognize the proceeding
here , and on the reason of comity between
the two states should have refused to Inter
fere.
fere.Air.
Air. Baldwin In concluding his argument
further Insisted that Burns had a proceed
ing In this court and a proceeding In Colorado
rado , but that he had confidence In neither
and was experimenting with both : that he
was afraid of his position In each and de
sired to hold on to both : that he took the
record of this court to Colorado and ued !
It to get an Injunction there and having se
cured that Injunction upon this record tie
imed It to oppress Doyle and Incarcerate
him. Then finding that Doyle would not
yield to the oppression. After seven months
of experimenting In Colorado , Uurns brought
the very same transcript from the Colorado
court down here , filed it In this court and
asked that upon that very same record , and
with which he Is keeping Doyle in Jail , this
court for mercy and leniency and begged tills
court upon that same record In the exercise
of Its discretion to permit him to plead here.
Air. Patterson In his closing argument con
tended that Doyle had secured his Judgment
by fraudulent and perjured testimony and
that It b had a right cause of action against
Burns he would not bo afraid to bring his
suit In the courts of Colorado , but this coun
sel Insisted ho did not dare do. Ho said he
could eislly understand that Doyle was willIng -
Ing to defy the courts of his state If he
could have close upon $1,000,000 to heal his
wounds with. The Judgment should , ho In
stated , bo sot asldo In the Interest of law
and Justice.

John Alontgomery , who claims to bo 107
years ot age and who was recently placed
In St. Bernard's hospital as a county charge ,
was yesterday declared by the Board of
Commissioners of Insanity to bo of un
sound mind. Ho will not , however , bo re
moved from St. Bernard's , but will be trans
ferred from the ward where the county
charges arc kept to the insane department.
The information charging Alontgomery
with being Insane was filed by Deputy City
Marshal Stockdale. Friday afternoon Alont-
gomery left the hospital without leave and
made a social call at a tailor shop on Broad
way , where he pocketed a large dirk knife.
Fearing that the old man Intended to do
himself some injury , the police were noti
fied. In the meantime Alontgomery re
turned to the hospital and when Officer
Stockdnlu arrived there ho denied having the
knife. It was found , however , concealed In
the drawer of a commode. Alontgomcry ,
despite his extreme age , gave the officer
quite a tussle before ho was able to get
possession of the knife. As a county charge
Montgomery's care at the hospital cost the
county $ S a month , now as an Insane pa
tient it will cost $11 per month.
John Sastrow , a fanner living near Un
derwood , filed an information yesterday
afternoon with the commissioners charging

A big sensation Is about to be sprung In
church circles here and one of the olde't
pastors in the tttnte la to bo asked for his
resignation. Dr. > A. L. Frlsblo has been
pastor of the Plymouth Congregational
church for over thirty years , and Is one of
the most generally esteemed of citizens.
Powerful members of the church took a dis
like to the reverend gentleman , however ,
probably because he Is a little old-fashioned ,
and on Thursday night they had Dr. D. P.
Fox , a Congregational pastor from Chicago ,
here for a lecture. It was scheduled as a
lecture , but It now seems tlut it was Blmply
an opportunity for some of the more prom
inent members of the church to see whether
or not they wanted Mr. Fox In place of
Frlsble. Mr. Fox made a good impression
and It was stated by one. of the deacons In
the church that the change would probably
bo made very soon.
Ilound to Ilnvr tlir Convention.
The citizens of Dos Molnes met on Mon
day to organize the company which Is to
erect the auditorium demanded by the re
publican state central committee. The last
republican state convention passed a reso
lution to the effect that this year's state
convention would be held in Des Molnes pro
vided this city would build a large audi
torium. It now has a larger hall than any
city in the state , but the politicians wanted
something batter. As a result $20,000 has
been raised and work will commence very
soon on a large building or convention hall
that will seat from 4,000 to 5,000.
Judge S. P. Prouty of the equity division
ot the district court today rendered a most
Important decision respecting the rights of
homesteaders formerly holding property out
side the city limits , but which was taken
into the city by the act of 1SOO. Increasing
ttio boundaries of the eity. It Is estimate1 !
thot the decision will affect several hundred
property owners In Des Molnes. The case
was entitled J. II. and Lena Sabers against
0. A. C'hllders. A demurrer of the defendant
to the petition of the ulalntlff was overruled
by the court. The plaintiff's grantor , Mrs.
Littleton , owned six acres of land outhlilo
ot the city of Des Mnlnes prior to 1800 which
was occupied by her as a homestead. Ily
the act of 1890. Increasing -the boundaries
of the city of DPS Alolnw. this liomeiteii'l '
was Included within the corporate limits o (
the city of Des Molne . While the proper.y
was In the country and occupied aa a home
stead , the plaintiff's grantor was entitled 10
the whole six acres as a homestead. When
It became a part of the corporate town she
would be entitled to only one-half acre. Un
der the code of 1873 this- land , although it
became a part of the city , -would not he re
duced to the one-half acre as a homestead
If it was platted. Uy the new code of 1SD7
this rule was changed , providing in BUD-
Ktanc'o that the homestead should
bo reduced to one-half acre If
within the corporate limits of
a city or town. Numerous persons had ob
tained judgments against plaintiff's grantor
since 1S90 and prior to 1SD7 and the question
was whether their Judgments were a lion
upon the five and a half acres other than
the homestead within the corporate limits.
The court held , first , that the law of 1890 ,
which extended the boundaries of the city
of DCS Molnrti would not change the homestead -
stead rights of this six acres , that law be
ing one of special legislation anil therefore
unconstitutional as affecting the rights of
the homesteaders. The court further held
that under section 48 of the code of 1897 ,
repealing the code of 1873 , nil rights that
had then accrued were reserved and as far i
as property was vested with a homestead j
right nt the time of the adoption of the j !
code of 1S97 , this right was still reserved
under the now code.

AIASON CITY , la. , Jan. . 28. ( Special Tel
egram. ) At noon today the state evidence
In .the Hughes murder trial wae practically
all In and adjournment was taken until
Alonday to give the attorneys an oppor
tunity to digest the testimony before the
defense would bo offered. Four experts In
symptoms of disease have testified that the
symptoms present nt the death of Ed
Hughes were thosQ of strychnine. There
has been a little divergence between them
as to the number of symptoms necessary
on which to base a positive opinion. One
held that strychnine symptoms were so
marked that they alone would be sufficient
evidence , another that symptoms , together
with finding strychnine in the stomach ,
would be necessary and still a third , who
iheld for a previous history of the ca e.
symptoms and the finding of poison.
The htato haa negatively proven that
Hughes did not die of heart disease and did
die from strychnine. The defense must
either bo suicide or accidental , or malicious
poisoning on the cart ot some one.

OSTEOPATHY
The science of osteopathy was discovered
by Dr. A. T. Still of Klrkavllle , AIo. Dr.
Still reasoned that a natural flow of blood
is health ; and disease Is the effect ot local or
general disturbance of the blood ; that to
excite nerves causes muscles to contract nnd
compress venous flow of blood to tlio heart ,
and the bones could bo used as lovers to
relieve pressure on nerves , veins and ar
teries.
A slight strain or a sudden Jolting may
oablly cause a displacement of bone , muscle ,
tendon or organ , and n contcquent pressure
on the nerves , thus breaking the nerve wave
between the brain and the part injured ,
and wo then may have as a result any of
the numerous ailments caused from lack
of nerve supply to parts. Seldom Is there
a permanent euro until the machinery Is
righted. Hence wo treat headache ( all
kinds ) , weak eyes , catarrh , hay fever , en
larged tonsils , goiter , asthma , bronchitis ,
deafness , Irregularities of the heart , neu
ralgia or rheumatism ( nf any part ) , spinal
curvature ( all kinds ) , dislocation of Joints ,
all kind of stomach , liver. Kidney , bowel
and spleen troubles , bladder and urethral
troubles , uterine , female Irregularities , as
painful , suppressed or excessive menstrua
