Tho neat little pocket envelope 'that has
het-n In use at the local theaters for the
past two years for .enclosing tickets hi
they are sold Is tho subject of nn expensive
bit of litigation reaching from this city
clear to Washington. It Is a little paper
folder, upon one of the leavrs of which Is
pasted a neat pocket to contain two tickets,
the whole being of the convenient size to
slip into tho upper vest pocket.
Eugene Loomls devised the thing when he
was eervlng as treasurer at lloyd's theater
two years ago and applied for a patent
thorefor. Ho was Just meeting with con
sldcrahlo success In placing it In theaters
In various parts of the country when he
ran up against another envelope so similar
In construction ns to be practically the
same, upon vhlch one George W. Hauscr
OLD SOAKERS.
Get Siiturat?d With Caffeine.
When a person has used coffee for a
number of years and gradually declined In
health, it Is tlmo the coffee should be left
off In order to sco whether or not that has
been the cause of the trouble.
A lady In Huntsvllle, Ala., Mrs. S. M.
Druzler says she used coffee for about
40 years, and for the past 20 years was
troubled with stomach trouble. "I have
been treated by many physicians but all
in vain. Everything failed to perfect a
cure. Was prostrated for some time, and
camo near dying. When I recovered suf
ficiently to partako of food and drink I
tried coffco again and It soured on my
stomach.
I finally concluded coffee was the cause
of my troubles and stopped using it. I
tried tea and then milk In Its place, but
neither ogreed with me, then I commenced
using Postum Food Coffee. I had it proper
ly made and it was very pleasing to the
taste.
1 huvo now used H four months, and my
health Is so greatly Improved that I can
cat almost anything I want and can sleep
well, whereas, before, I suffered for years
with Insomnia.
I have found the cause of my troubles
ond a way to get rid of them. You can
diipeud upon It I appreciate! Postum,"
or New York had obtained a patent long
after the Loomls application was Died,
It seems that the application of Loomls
passed Into the bands of one. cxamluer and
met with delays, while an application by
Hauscr several months later went to an
other examiner and was rushed through In
sixty days. Hauscr has a patent upon his
envelope and Loomls has protested it.
Considerable testimony has been taken at
this end of the route. Inventor Loomls
has not been put to great expense, but
Mauser's claim has interfered with tho
business he was building up In handling the
envelope.
ROBBERY, NOT ELOPEMENT
Moux City Is Inlionpltnlilr In Loiik
Mnrrlcil Couple from
() in nh it,
A Sioux City dispatch received Tuesday
night says: "O. S. Ackerman, a young
Omahan, who eloped with the daughter of
a prominent family lust Wednesday and
carao to the Garretson hotel hero, has run
out of money. Tho young woman tele
graphed her father to come nnd he did
so. He took a policeman to tho hotel with
him, but no demonstration was necessary,
as tho daughter willingly accompanied her
father home."
When Mrs. A. S. Ackerman, mother of
tho nllcgcd elopor, was seen last night at
her residence, 2968 Woolworth street, and
shown the dispatch, she laughed heartily.
"What on absurd story," she said. "Why,
Gcorgo and Graco Morrill were married on
March 17, and as they lived with us for
flvo weoks after that I cannot understand
where the elopement comes In. It is truo
they went to Sioux City recently! where
George expects to tako a position with the
now Armour plant. While there they wero
at the Garretson hotel, where they were
robbed of all the money thoy had with
them. The proprietor of the hotel refused
to do anything about tho matter, and it
became nccessury to notify us, Mr. Mor
rill went up and found they had been
robbed, presumably by an employe of tho
hotel, and hired two detectives, to look aftor
It. As tho young people were unfortunately
left without funds, Mr. Morrill very kindly
paid the hotel bill and advanced Georgo
a sum of money. The three thought It
would be better for Grace to return here
and await tho decision of Armour's man
nger nnd she did so. We expect George In
a day or two.
"No, thoro Is absolutely not a word of
truth In the Sioux City story and I am'
sorry that the young people must get all
this notoriety. Grace and her father Just
left hero a few minutes ago, so you see
wo are all on good terms, which would not
bo the caso if an elopement had occurred.
I wish they were here now to read this
telegram. They would laugh at It as much
as I do."

ALLEGED PENSION SWINDLE
Frederick Dorcr In Arraigned for
Trial nefnre Judge
Mnnxrr,
Before Judge Munger the case of the gov
ernment against Fredorick Dorer, alios
Doarer, was taken up yesterday afternoon.
Defendant Is charged with the Impersona
tlon of a pension agent, In which assumed
capacity he Is alleged to have defrauded
II. C. Stol! of Beatrice out of $7.50. Stolt
says ho met Dorer about two years ago
on n railroad train and tho latter suggested
that Stoll was entitled to a pension, and
the latter says that as ho had been in
hard luck for somo time before because a
lot of fine hogs he was breeding had died
with the cholera, ho concluded he would
like a few dollars of pension money on tho
sldo.
Later Dorer called at Stoll's homo and
urged on tho pension application, and whllo
enjoying the hospitality of Stoll managed
to borrow $7.50, and as that was all tho
money he had the visitor nlso borrowed
his enno and spectacles. None of them evor
camo back and when Stoll reported his
experience to tho Pension department an
Investigation was Instituted, which finally
led to Dorer's arrest In Missouri. He has
been In Jail several months.
"I had a running sore on my breast for
over a year," says Henry R. Richards of
Wlllsoyvllle, N. Y and tried a great
many remedies, but got no relief until I'
used Banner Salve. After using one-half
box, I was perfectly cured., I cannot
recommend It too highly."

Also,
Does the wilful passing of Mexican money
and the receipt of change In American coin
constitute a crime?
This question Is up against the police-department
as a result of the arrest of F. P.
Robinson, a man who has acquired much
notoriety and not a llttlo coin through this
process. Robinson was arrested Tuesday
evening by Detectives Ilcclan and Johnson
after paying for a glass of beer In n lower
Douglas street saloon with a Mexican dol
lar and receiving 95 cents of Uncle Sam's
good money In change. Mexican dollars
cost about 45 cents each In this country,
though containing moro silver than an
American dollar, and consequently Robin
son was ahead of tho game to tho extent
of 45 cents and a glass of lager.
When searched at tho police station
Robinson's pockets gavo up twenty-thrco
Mexican dollars, twelvo half dollars, somo
smaller silver pieces and a $5 Mexican Na
tional bank note. Thu silver money so
closely resembles our coin that it Is easily
accepted In Its stead, especially when passed
by an expert shover. Tho bank note nlso
bears a striking resemblance, but even a
casual examination Is sufficient to detect
the difference.
Among Robinson's other possessions were
two letters from Mexican banks from which
he bad got tho coin. One was from tho
National Bank of Mexico, which had sold
him 300 half dollars for $75 nnd shipped
them to Spokane. Tho other was from the
Banco do Londres' of Mexico, which ac
cepted $75 for $155.25 of Mexican coin sent
by express to Chicago. Ho doubled his
money on every dollar of It.
Robinson also had a big bunch of news
paper clippings which showed ho had
operated all over the country. Ills alert
exploit was at Lincoln, where ho was thrust
into Jail through tho duplicity of a femalo
accomplice, tho notorious Fern Bcnolst of
St. Joseph. It is said that Robinson un
loaded not less than $400 Mexican upon tho
easy pcoplo of tho ropltal city before his
pal gave the snap away because sho was
not getting enough of tho swag. He was
arrested here shortly after ho turned his
flrr.t trick. What will be done to punish
him le another question. Ho seems to havo
been successful thus far In escapfng con
vittlon for any length of time, though nr
restcd In dozens of western and southern
cities. r
Sam Bussey, a local grafter, was arrested
by Detectives Savage and Dunn on a charge
of being an accomplice of Robinson. He
hod In his possession a $5 Mexican bill
which ho said Robinson had given him.
Bussey was seen In Robinson's compuny
and the police think he Is a good follow to
keop In Jail on general principles.
Thomas Fried, a Joweler doing business
in Brown park, has been missing since
Saturday and It Is feared that ho has been
foully dealt with. On Saturday afternoon
Fried closed his store and started op a
fishing trip, giving 'It out that he was 'gO

point. When he loft "'he had, It Jb as"?
sorted some $200 In cash and considerable
Jewelry on his person. Slnco the tlmo he
left the park, he haB not been heard of
and friends nro becoming anxious. Shortly
after noon yesterday a description of tho
missing man was left with the police, with
tho request that he bo looked up.
In Brown park circles it Is said that
Fried was to have been married soon, but
that the young woman went back on htm.
Other friends say that Fried was subject
to heart troublo and they fear that he
may have been taken ill while on his fish
ing trip and therefore they want tho
police to hunt him up. There was no finan
cial troublo In which Fried was mixed, as
ho was apparently doing well In a business
way. The police ore looking after the mat
ter and may be ablo to make a report
within the next day or two. Fried resided
on Twentieth street between R nnd S
streets.
Searching parties composed of friends of
Fried who llvo In this city nro now out
hunting for the missing man. Thoy go
upon the theory that he has been stricken

Miller Ilreuka Quorum.
Councilman August Miller of the Fourth
ward, who In a recent wrltton communica
tion signed himself "The Fearless Llttlo
Giant," was the cause of delaying public
business yesterday by breaking a quorum
of the council which was called to meet
at noon. At Monday night's meeting of
the council Miller Bent up a motion di
recting the president to appoint a commit
tee to Investigate tho actions of Henry C.
Murphy, the city prosecutor. Mr. Miller
asserted that Murphy's action? needed
looking nttor, but declined to make any
specific charges. On this account no mem
ber of tho council seconded the motion, nnd
It was consigned to the scrap pile. This
angered Miller, and when the adjourned
session was about to bo called to order
yesterday noon, ho managed to get Martin
and Dworak to walk out with blm and
thus break the quorum.
All that was up of any importance was
the granting of a number of liquor licenses
and on account of the adjournment until
next Monday night tho school district will
bo kept out of the use of the money ,m
far paid In. Members of the Board of
Education, when they' learned tho facts
during the afternoon, paid their compli

terms which could not bo misunderstood.

as the vital powers begin to wane a slight bruise or cut. wart or mole, sore or
pimple may develop into Cancor. From middle life to old nge is the time when
the slumbering poison is most apt to brenk out, a sore or ulcer often degenerating
into Cancer, nnd Tumors become more progressive nnd ulcerate through the skin,
the sharp, shooting pains causing the most intense suffering.
The Cancer patient naturally grows despondent ns one after another the usual
remedies fail, and the sore shows no sign of healing. The impurities that have
beeu accumulating in the system, perhaps for generations, cannot be eliminated nor
the poisoned blood nude pure by salves, washes and plasters. The proper treatment
is to purify and build up the blood, remove the cause, when the sore or ulcer heals.

WOMAN WITNESS BECOMES UNCONSCIOUS
"Let Her I'nlnt, She's Only Slinm
ni I n K," Mcernl Other Women
Cry AVIien the Court Al
for AxnUtnncc.
A prattling baby, a mother nnd a father
endeavoring to blacken each other's char
acter, several witnesses committing per
jury, ono woman having a fit of hysteria
and a half dozen other women shedding
tears copiously, mado It Interesting for
Judgo Fawcctt nnd the spectators 111 his
court room yesterday afternoon.
The dlvorco case of Norbcrg I, Bradley
against Minnie Bradley, in which allega
tions of Infidelity were made on both sides,
wns on trial. Tho excitement began whllo
Bradley wr.s on tho witness stnnd doing
what ho could to swear nway tho character
of his wlfo. The woman who had n I in
pnnlcd Bradley to tho court room, and who
afterward turned out to bo his star witness,
began to brcatho heavily and moan faintly.
Suddenly her bend fell back, her face be
come livid and tho court attendants caught
her Just In time, to prevent her from fall
ing out of n chair on to the floor.
"Will somo of you women glvo us your
assistance," called Judgo Fawcctt to a
hulf dozen women who sat motlontcss In
tho front row, ns a like number of men
sprinkled wntor on tho fainting ono nnd
wondered what to do next.
'Women Are ot Alnrmed,
"Let her faint," cried one of the front
row women, "sho's tho only ono to go back
on Mrs. Bradley and that's what's the mat
ter with her."
"She's only putting that on," ventured
another of the women.
Not one of them would make n move or
a suggestion for tho restoration of the un
conscious woman, who was carried into
the Judge's private office. A physician was
called und sho wns Boon brought back to
her sense.
The trial was then resumed and a few
moments later a Mrs. Dennett entered
with the bright 2-ycnr-old child of the
Bradleys. As soon ns tho little ono saw
her mother she r.in to her nnd was
quickly and passionately clasped In the
arms of tho weeping woman. Tho father
walked around tho tnblo and held out his
arms to tho baby, who went to him readily.
During tho remainder of the afternoon the
Innocent one, who really hod moro nt stake
at tho trial than any ono else, played about
tho court room, running first to her
mother nnd then to her fnther, and show
ing ns much affection for tho ono as for
tho other.
Tho testimony In the caso wns salacious
nnd contradictory, and when it wns con
cluded Judge Fawcctt said:
"This Is positively tho most disagreeable
caso I have heard slnco I novo been on tho
bench, nnd It Is nlso tho most difficult ono
to decide. There Is n flat contradiction of
evldcnco nnd It Is plain that somo of the
witnesses havo committed perjury.
rnnrt'n I'lnln Tnlk.
"A woman goes on tho stnnd hero and
swears that she witnessed nn act of in
fidelity on tho part of thin defendnnt, nnd
that tho act took place In her houso while
tho defendnnt was visiting her. I must
say that nothing is ns abhorrent to mo as a
woman who will permit such nn act to bo
perpetrated In her own houso nnd undor
her' very nose. 1 will not convict any ono
on .tho ovldcnce of such a woman.
"At one Rtngo of this trlnl I thought It
would be best to send the parties out of
court without granting a decree to either
of them, but I do not think tho Interests
of society would be best subserved by such
nctton. I will therefore order a decrcn of
divorce for tho defendnnt on the ground of
cruelty and give her tho nominal custody
of the child. Mrs. Dennett, who has hnd
tho custody of tho baby for some months,
expresses a dcslro to keep It In her caro
and tho order of tho court will bo that shn
Is to continue ns the custodian of tho child.
Tho parents may visit tho baby, but neither
of them is to bo permitted to tnko It away
from Mrs., Dennett."
When tho court announced this decision
Bradley collapsed and wept bitterly for
some minutes.

WHEN DOCTORS DKSIIAIH.
Tho best wny to Judgo of tho wonder
ful curative power of "Golden Medical
Discovery" Is to note the numerous
cases In which it has cured when. doctors
despaired of restoring health. Look on u
picture painted with nbsoluto fidelity to
tho facts:
A darkened room, a gasping sufferer
In tho bed. Hectic burns In her fncci
emaciation has stripped tho body of Its
romellnessi oven ow and again comes
tho harsh, teaiin. cough, followed by n
trickling thread of blood which stains tho
Hps. Friends look on helplessly. Tho doc
tor Is pitiful, but powerless. He says:
"You will never bo well again." At
this crisis, when hopo is dead nnd
help seems Impossible;
Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery Is
tried and slowly and
surely with tho use of
tho medicine health comes
back tho cough grows
less severe, the hemor
rhages less frequent,
thero Is n gain in llosh
and in strength nnd somo

door opens and the family

story, not of one woman
or of ono man, but of
scores nnd hundreds of
men and women, who,
when nil else had failed,
havo been perfectly and
permanently cured by tho
use of "Goldcu Medical
Discovery."
TIIH DOCTOR WAS
WRONG.
"When 1 commenced
taking your medicines
eighteen months ago my
health was completely
broken down," writes
Mrs. Cora L. Sunderland
of Chnneyvlllo, Calvort
Co., Md. "At times I
could not ' even woll;
across tho room without
pains In my chest. Tho
doctor who attended mo
ttuld I had lung trouble,
and that I would novnr bo. well again. At
Inst 1 concluded to try Dr. Plorco'B medi
cines. I bought n bottle of Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, took It, and -soon
commenced to, feel n llttlo better;, then you
directed me to tako both tho 'Golden, Med
ical Discovery' and Fnvorito 'Prescription,'
which I lld. Altogether I ' havo' token
eighteen bottles of 'Golden Medical Dis
covery,' twolve of tho 'Fnvorito Prescrip
tion,' nnd five vials of 'Pellets.' I am
now almost entirely woll, and da nil my
work without any pain whatever, Hnd can
run with moro caso that I could formerly
walk."
