Carrying Concealed
Weapons-Deplored in
.High Court Decision
Lincoln, . Feb. 28. (Special.)
Supreme court opinions today in
cluded the following:
While one may be justified under
certain conditions to carry con
cealed weapons, if arrested it is un
to him to show the justification.!
i nis in substance is the opinion of
the supreme court in a case brought
from Wavne county, in which John
Nugent had been found guilty of
carrying concealed weapons. The
upper court holds hat proper justi
fication was not shown in this case
and deplores the carrying of the
same as tending to provoke murder.
In an action of a wif for alienad
uon oi anecnons or ner nusoand it
is an error for the court to 'instruct
the jury that "the wrong of the one
who succeeds' in withdrawing the
husband's affections from the wife
is almost impossible of measure'
ment"
kThe case is one in which Grace
anna sued Thomas Hanna in the
Dawson county court, father of the
husband, David W. Hanna, for $50,
000 for alienating the affections of
theshusband, alleging that he did so
by comparing her and her work
with that of former "sweethearts jof
her husband. The jury gave Mrs.
Hanna a verdict of $14,000, and Mr.
Hanna appealed. The, case goes
back for a new trial.

there can be no recovery. The case
was heard on a motion for a new
trial of the case by Mrs. Dodder
and the supreme court denies the
application. ' .
Judge Aldrich, vho wrote the
opinion, speaking ot the evidence of
the expert,, said: "Appellant's dis
cussions have been analytical, but
'he has been unable to remove the
shops and powered with our
new six-cylinder motor- it sur
passes every standard heretofore
accepted as the best in five-passenger
motor cars. t
The "Glenbrook" is now one of
the fastest selling cars, on the
American market and the de
mand is increasing with each
succeeding day.
-Already our production schedule ;
'has been sorely taxed and orders
for spring delivery will undoubt

Compare it with any five-passenger
car that the market affords
and determine whether it is not,
indeed, the greatest dollar-for-dollar
