WINS SUIT FOR

SIXTY CENTS CASE IS APPEALED FROM JUSTICE COURT, THREE LAWYERS HIRED, AND TRIED BEFORE JURY OVER DIFFERENCE OF $1.10. The jury returned on the lecker versus Shurr case at 4 o'clock p. m. Wednesday after being out about a half hour and found that Shurr owed lecker jfö.ou, instead as Shurr claimed only $t.4(. This, case was appealed from a Bremen justice court, was tried before a jury in the circuit court, three lawyers being employed all on account of a difference of $1.10 between the two men Shurr and lecker had been working together in Bremen as plasterers and after each job was completed, and payn.ent received, the men would divide the money according lo the relative amount of work done by each. A certain job came up, upon which the two men were employed, and when finished, lecker claimed that Shi'rr owed him $3.4S. Shurr mainiamod that $4.40 was all that was due lecker. Not being satisfied with a just ce court decision, the case was appealed to the circuit court. The -u e occupied almost two days when the jury allowed lecker $3.00, which Vvas ;o cents more than Shurr wished to pay him. Attorney A. E. VvTse represented lecker, while Wm. B. Hess, and S. J. Haves of Bremen, were for Shurr. In Circuit Court. On Thursday the case of Lavina Haas, versus Daniel Haas, for divorce was being tried. The family formerly resided in Bremen. Mrs. Haas now resides at Ft. Wayne. The woman is seeking the divorce, claiming that her husband mistreated her and her :hildren. She is represented by Attorney A. E. Wise. Mr. Haas is contesting the divorce, and his case is being conducted by Attorney S. N. Stevens Entertaining the Fleet. If tiie Peruvians will endeavor to recover from the shock they are said to have suffered when Rear Admirals Thomas, S;erry, and Emory of the American fleet departed hastily from the bull fight arranged in honor of the sailors visiting at Lima, the admirals will endeavor to recover from the fight, and there should be no painful memories on either side. The dispaches from the festive city contain the story that the three rear admirals were equal to seeing the death of four bulls and the wounding of a matador in a particularly gory fashion, but that, Having seen this, their appetite for the pastime was satisfied and they hocked their kind, hearted and well meaning Peruvian hosts by retreating under f.dl steam Considering the limitations of the education of the three rear admirals, they did fairly well in lasting out the four bulls and the one matador. The Peruvians should remember that from the viewpoint of the three naval officers killing is only a regrettable incident to a profession whicl has other objects to attain. Roosevelt Presses ' Button; Train Through Hudson Bore. The first official train of the Hudson-Manhattan railroad company to journey from New York to Hoboken beneath the Hudson river started at :$:4u o'clock Tuesday afternoon, when President Roosevelt pressed a button at the White house and switched on the power in the McAdoo tunnel. The train was made up of eight cars jammed with 1,000 guests waiting at the Nineteenth street and Sixth avenue station when the president's signal was received. The station was dark and the third rails dead, but he train was brilliantly lighted by its storage battery. When everything was ready the doors of the train were closed, a telegram was sent to the White house announcing thatall was ready, and the president turned on the power bv a pressure of a key. Smoothly and wfth rapidly gathering speed the train drew out of the station, the cheers of the throng that packed the station platform thunder ing, in the tube. The more or less jammed and strap suspended officials and guests in the train also cheered. To stops were made until tlfc Hobo ken terminus was reached at 3:51 o' clock, 'the joilrney iccupying exactly eleven minutes. No attempt wai made at speed until the under river bore was reached, rhe.i the long string of steel cars rushed ahead like a tornado, dipping under the bed of the Hudson in three minutes. Clusters- of trfcolored lights marked the center tunnel and the boundary line between New York and N w Jersey. When the train shot by this line New Jersey nayors, aldermen, and state legislators cheered and congratulated one another. 0v. Hughes and Gov. Fort of New Jersey with their miliary staffs in full uniform were in the first car of the train. There was1 one woman in th. party Mrs. Collins S. Carter, Gov. Hughes' sister-in-law. President McAdoo of the tunnel operating com pany sat beside Mrs. Carter. Formal exercises were held at Hohoken. Prayer Causes a Divorce. Mrs. Isaac Barrett got a divorce at Detroit, Mich., Tuesday because her husband prayed too much. They were married in March, 1M99, in Tor onto, where they lived and had five children. Then a wandering Methodist missionary came into Barrett's life and he was converted. From that time on for three years he did scarcely anything but pray. He endeavored to convert his wife and children, but failed.

The attorneys for the appellees in the disbarment case involving MayoLemuel Darrow, of Laporte, and John W. Talbot of South Bend, are confident that the appellate court, where extended oral argument was heard last week, 'will hand down its opinion within the next two weeks. They are also confident of securing a reversal of the judgment returned in the Elkhart county court, where a jury found Mayor Darrow and John W, Talbot guilty, disbarring them from practice in the courts of the state. Slayer Made) Mistake. The mystery surrounding the motive of the murderer of Father Leo Heinrichs at Denver, Colo., Sunday, was cleared up Tuesday by a confession said to have been made in the Colorado Springs jail by the assassin, Guiseppe Alio, alias Giuseppe Guarnaccio and Angelo Gabriele, from which it appears that Father Leo was not the priest whom he intended to murder, but was mistaken by him for a young Italian priest who had been condemned to death by ? band of anarchists who had been exiled from Sicily. When told that the priest he had killed was a German and had never been in Sicily, and that there was no scar on his forehead. Alio burst into a paroxysm of grief, and after it had passed calmly said: 'If I have killed the wrong man I am sorry, but I will take the consequences like a man."

PRIEST ASSASSINATED.

Shot Through Heart by Man to Whom He is Giving th Com munion. With the consecrated wafer at his lips, an anarchist who was receiving the holy communion from his vie tim shot and killed Father Leo Henrichs, superior of the local branch of the Franciscans, early Sunday at St. Elizabeth's Roman Catholic church, Eleventh and Curtis streets, Denv. Colorado. The assassin, whose name is Guarmachic Guiseppa, an Italian, was kneeling at the altar rail when he fir ed. The bullet went through the priest's heart. As the report of the pistol resounded through the church there was utter silence for a moment In the pause Father Henrich's voice rang out in Kiä last words on earth. "-My God! My God!" he cried in a loud voice. "To thee I commend my soul' Father Heinrichs then fell forward in a crumpled heap, tumbling between two women who were kneeling to the right of the murderer, wfao also had just received the s-acrament.- The service was early mass and the hour of the tragedy about G o'clock. The instant that Father Heinrichs fell the congregation awoke from its stupor, the tragedy having occurred so quickly that it utterly dazed the onlookers. Shriek upon shriek from the women succeeded and a scene of the wildesft tumult followed. The two women who were closest to the victim, and the dress of one of whom was bespattered with the priest's blood, fainted, falling against the altar rail. Several other women also fainted, while a score of men jumped forward to seize the asisassin. Guiseppa, however, with a smothered Italian curse and waving the revolver above his head, dashed toward the church door, down the middle aisle. He was pursued by the men, among whom was a Patrolman Daniel Cronin. Cronin overtook the Italian on the front steps; of the church. The assassin here turned on the patrolman and pointed the revolver at him. Cronin sprang on the assasin before the latter had time to pull the trigger. After a hand-to-hand fight Cronin wrenched the revolver from the murderer's grasp. Other men then aided him an the Italian was completely overpowered, immediately being taken to the city jail. Threats of lynching wert voiced by the throng, which gathered in front of the church. Chief of Police Michael Dclaney .thereupon called out the reserve force of polict and a strong guard was thrown -around thr. j.... Guiseppa was! placM in solitary confinement at the jail. H; was sullen and rebellious. He declared that Father Heinrichs was a slrangcf to him, but that he hated all prhsts. ARMY . VISIT DOOMED AT FT. HARRISON. Congress Refuses to Give Money anö War Department May Abandon Maneuvers. There will be no joint army and militian maneuvers at Ft. Benjamin Harrison this year. While Represen tativc Ovcrstreet has done, all that was possible to promote the plan for these maneuvers, he is forced to submit to the conclusion of the leaders of Congress that no m'oney shall be appropriated this year for maneuvers. Recognizing the temper of Congress, the War Department has practically abandoned the plans of the maneuvers. Representative Hull, chairman of the 'Military Affairs Committee, is blocking the passage of the necessary appropriation and he has the unanimous support of the committee. Mr. Hull said: "We have eliminated from the army appropriation bill the item of $1,000,000 for maneuvers!. The comuiittee, I Ithinlc, without exception feels that the maneuvers, by which the regular force and he state militia are brought together are of great benefit. There is no disposition to decry the benefits that have come through the closer association of the national guard and the regular establishment, but these maneuvers have only been of recent years. When started they were to be only about every third year. They have grown up until they are practically now practically every year. They only benefit a small portion of the guard each year. "Only one regiment at a time from a state can be taken into the annual grand encampment recommended by the department. That gives but small advantage to the guard" as a whole, while if the regulars were brought to th'at state all the guard would have all the benefit each year. f "We had $1,000,000 last year and $1,000,000 the year before for these grand maneuvers. At this time, with our expenses running away with us on other lines, with a budget for the support of the army increased by $7,000.000 now, and an increase certainly of $.,00(. 000 more if a provision incorporated in the bill increasing the pay of the enlisted force shall prevail, and an increase of $2,200,000 more if another provision shall be incorporated increasing the pay of the officers, I insist that this year's maneuvers may well be dropped out. In my judgment the elimination of this $1,000,000, with the decrease of some $500,000 in apppropriations for the regular establishment as a result of not providing for maneuvers, is not doing any injury to the service and is in the line of good legislation, un der present conditions.
