THIS NOT LIKELY TO END LITIGATION
Motion for Sew Trials In a Hnmner of
Cases Set for Hearing Judge
Hefnsea to Modify a De
cree for Divorce.
The sealed verdict In the Christopher
Omeg will contest ease was opened by
Judge Macy on reconvening district court
yesterday afternoon, and, as had been re
ported; it was found to be In favor of the
contestants. The Jury held that the signa
ture to the Instrument 'purporting to be
the last will and testament of Christopher
Omeg was not his genuine signature..' The
testimony on this point was most conflict
ing. In the event of a.new triarbelng de
nied the case. It Is aald.' will be taken up
on appeal to the supreme court. , . '
' The motion for a near' trial In the feult of
Jacob E. Thrush against Brlgham Grablll
and others was argued and submitted yes
terday af ternoon. Judge Macy -ordered that
the plaintiff, who was recently given A ver
dict for $259, remit 1109 of the amount, this
proportion representing the Interest, other
wise the motion of the defendants tor a new
trial would be sustained. .''. -
. The business of the 'term . Is practically
concluded -and an early.', adjournment is
looked for. Today the motion for a new
trial in the Birlt of -tho Monarch Manufac
turing company against the motor company,
la which the plaintiff was given a verdict
for $3,000, will be argued.:- , '
The motion of the defense for a new trial
in the personal Injury damage suit -of Mrs.
Rice, against the City of Council Bluffs Is
also listed for argument today.
. In the. divorce suit of John Hlgglns
against Catherine Hlgglns Judge Macy yes
terday overruled the application of the
plaintiff for a modification of the the order
requiring him to pay the defendant $35. In
denying the application Judge Macy said
that If the plaintiff could not afford to pay
that sum he had better not apply for a di
vorce, as the next thing he would probably
be asking for a premium for getting a di
vorce. ,
FORFEIT PAVING CONTRACT
Council Takes First 'Step In Abrogat
ing Contract on Harrison
Street.
At the meeting of the "city council last
eight City Solicitor Snyder waa instructed
to draft a resolution declaring the cpn
tract of E. A. Wlckham for the paving
of Harrison street forfeited by reason -of
his failure to do the work within the time
specified; that the city readvertlse for bids
and that Contractor WIckbam and bis
bondsmen be held liable for any damages
that the city may sustain by reason of
his failure to carry out bis contract for
this work. As a reltpainary step, to de
claring, the contract forfaited the city mar
shal waa Instructed, to notify Wlckham and
his bondsmen that the council would take
such action In the matter at the regular
meeting next Monday night.
It was' conceded during the -discussion
last evening that even if the city awarded
a new contract for the paving with Coun
cil Bluffs brick. It would be very doubtful
If tha work could be done owing to the lack
of material, also that If bids were asked
for on a different material whether Wlck
ham or his bondsmen could be held liable
for the difference In the cost. City Solic
itor Snyder In giving hla opinion offhand
said he believed that the city would not
be able to hold Wlckham liable unless the
same material waa used as was called for
In the contract with him. Tha city coun
cil, however, expressed Itself as being In
favor of declaring the contract forfeited and
readvertalng for bids irrespective of the
question whether the city could recover
from Wlckham or not.
Alderman McDonald in asking for the
placing of an arc light at the Intersection
of First avenue and South Eighth street,
urged that the electric light tower
at the corner of Broadway and Eighth
street be abandoned and tha lights dis
tributed In the Immediate neighborhood at
suitable street intersections. This brought
up a discussion of the old question of
abandoning the light towera and with It
more or less opposition to such a proposi
tion. No action beyond, referring the mat
ter to the committee of ' the whole waa
taken and on adjournment the aldermen
took a drive la the patrol wagon, to investi
gate the need of a light at the point named
by ' the alderman from the Fourth ward.
John J. Hardin was, awarded the con
tract for the grading of Third street
between Willow avenue and Story street on
his bid of 20 cents per ublo foot for cash
and 24 cents for certificates. His waa the
only bid. . . .
Victor E. Bender, appearing for residents
of Fifth avenue, east of Third street, called
attention to the failure of W. H. Knepher
to complete his contract for the grading
of that avenue and the. eity marshal was
Instructed to notify Knepher and his bonds,
men that unless the work was completed
in ten days the 'contract would be declared
forfeited and he and his bondsmen held
liable for any damages.
In conformity with the recommendation
of the committee on city property, it was
decided to deny the request that the city
donate one of Us lots in Ferry addition
to the Union mission for a building site,
but to offer the use of the lot rent free tor
three years with the option of purchase at
the expiration of that time of the property
for $100. ,

A Stove Talk.
There are stoves and stoves and some
times one becomes bewildered In selecting
a good heater, as there are so many con

that for excellence, for the saving of fuel
and for general comfort and satisfaction

as saying that there are no other good
stoves. There are, but In the main we want
to say that there are none better in ever;
way than our favorite leader in heating
stoves, the Radiant Home,; You can And
out all about this stove from your neighbor,
as there are hundreds of them in use In
Council Bluffs. All we ask Is for you to
let us show you the good qualities, the
economical money-saving points of the Ra.
