LINCOLN. Nov. 21. (Special Telcsrnm.)
Tho supremo court dealt n serious blow at
ho Irrigation Interets In tho Btato by affirm
ing tno decision of the trial court in tho
caso of tho county of Crawford nalnnl
Hathaway nnd others. Tho appellant la
this case brought nn action In tho dis
trict court of Dawes county against Leroy
Hall nnd others to adjudicate certain rights
of tho parties and to enjoin him, who was
charged with making threats to tear down
n dam erected by tho uppollant In Whlio
river, by which nearly nil of tho water
In tho river was diverted from Its chan
nel and caused to How through tho plain
tiff's ditches. In brief, tho supremo couro
hold that tho owner of n bank Is entitled
to all tho rights of a riparian proprietor,
which Includes tho How of water In tho
strenm. Lawyers who examined this
opinion tonight said that It might lead to
Invalidating tho Btato Irrigation law.
Tho caso of tho slnto ex rel John O.
Tclsor against Ilcecher Illgby, from Douglas
tounty, was dlsmtsscl. In this caso Ytlsor
nought to obtain a writ of mandamus com
pelling tho city clerk of Omaha to submit
nn ordinance under tho Initiative and refer
endum net. 'I ho enso was dismissed for
tho reason that no final order or Judgment
was rendered In tho trial court. Tho court
held that error proceeding could not bo
prosecuted beforo a final Judgment had been
entered.
A decision of Interest to tho medical pro
fession was rendered In the caso of tho
btato against Charles W. Little, nn osteo
path. Tho court held that "onu who prac
tices what Is known as osteopathy, without
obtaining, a certificate from tho Btato board
of health is a practitioner of mcoiclno and
Is llablo to tho penalty prescribed specifi
cally for practicing mcdlclno without a
license."
State l,or Hartley I'll mo.
In tho caso of tho Stato of Nebraska
against tho bondsmen of cx-Treasuror
Hartley tho court adhered to Its former
Judgment reversing tho decision of tho dis
trict court of Douglas county, which was
In favor of tho state. Tho first reversal
was predicated on tho solo ground that tho
trial court committed nn error In directing
a verdict for tho stnto for tho full amount
of Its clnlm, It was this ruling nlono that
tho court dealt with In arriving at tho de
cision rendered today. Tho opinion In tho
caso was wrltton by Chief Justlco Norval
and In closing It says:
With tho proofs before tho court thu
admission of tho trnnncrlpt of the dls
trlct court of Lancaster county was evi
dence tending to show that u part of thu
moneys sought to bo recovered In the case
nt bar wero not embezzled during Hartley's
second term, lienco the district court erred
in directing the Jury to return u verdict
for tho Hlato for tho full nmotint claimed
in the petition in this cuuse. There is no
escaping tills conclusion.
Tho syllabus of tho opinion:
liendlngs may In- Introduced ns evidence,
in actions other than those wherein they
wen; Hied, as admissions ngnlnst Interest.
Coiillletlnii evidence Is for thu Jury to
weigh nnd when thero is n conlllct In evi
dence upon n material Issue It Is error to
direct n verdict for either party.
Tho amount Involved In this caso Is ap
proximately $000,000. Judgo Holcomb took
Ho part In tho opinion.
In the appeal of Dr. Charles Tuttlo of
Lincoln, an ostcopathlst, tho court nfllrniB
tho decision of tho lower court. It holds,
that an ostcopathlst is a practltloucr of
mcdlclno and BUbJcct to regulations of the

MISS MORRISON ON TRIAL
Kldnrnrio's Scnsiitloiiiil Cane Opened
Vo ii ti u Woman to .lustier for
CuttliiK lllviit'n Tliront.
ELDORADO, Kan., Nov. 21. When Judge
C. V. Shlnn announced tho ense the court
room wns crowded with spectators. Among
them wero a dozen women, clerks In tho
store where Castle and Miss Morrison had
worked, or' neighbors of tho dead woman
and her husband. On a front scat sat Judfee
Morrison, the aged father of the alleged
murderess, and back of him, crouching low
to escape tho gaze of the curious, young
Castle, for tho love of whom, tho state will
contend, Miss Morrison killed his wife.
Presently Judgo Morrison left the room,
accompanied by the sheriff. A few minutes
later tho two men escorted Miss Morrison,
slender and frail looking, to a. seat bcsldo
the Judge's desk. Tho prisoner was dressed
plainly nnd bore a dejected appearance,
Sho sat quietly through tho proceedings,
making no comment and hardly speaking a
word. Her five months' confinement In the
county Jail had apparently changed her
completely.
Yesterday Sllss Morrison's attorneys filed
pica In abatement, asserting that tho
preliminary hearing had not been regular
and that the prisoner therefore could not
bo tried on the chargo of murder In the
first degree Tho state's attorney moved
that tho pica ho amended and asked that
tho case proceed.
Soon after court convened at 1:30 o'clock
counsel for tho state filed a demurrer to
tho plea In abatement made by the attor
neys for Miss Morrison. Tho afternoon was
spent In arguments of counsel on both sides.
.Miss Morrison nnd Olln Castle sat a few
feet from each other during tho nfternooti
session, hut neither oven glanced at tho
other.
Judgo Shlnn sustained tho stato'o de
mur! or and told tho defense td prepare Ub
amended pica. After tho amended plea was
tiled, read and nrgued tho court overruled
tho plea In abatement. A motion to quash
the Information was filed, and it too, was
overruled. Miss Morrison and her attorneys
held n conference, nfter which a motion for
continuance was filed, Tho motion for
n contlnuanco is on the ground that ouo
of tho principal witnesses for the defense
Is absent from tho stnte and cannot bo hero
at this term of court. Judge Shlnn over
ruled tho motion for a coiitlnuanco and
set the caso for tomorrow.

they have entirely stopped and I am pleased to recommend them to any one afflicted as I was.
Mrs. JULIA LARNE.
All pleasure Is banished from (he lives of women who suffer with leucorrhcea. Yet so many
women suffer that malady as if the pain and ajony they endure were necessary. It is not a part of

other "female ill" the first thing you should do is to get rid of it. The easiest and most effectual
way is to take
WINEofCARDUI
Wine of Cardul stops the disorder by strengthening the afflicted organs and regulating the menstrual
flow. Your experience with Wine of Cardul would be as happy as ,1s that of Mrs. Larne and Mrs.
Stanfiil. We ask you to give the medicine a fair trial. Druggists sell $1.00 bottles of Wine of Cardul.
