SOUGHT A DENTIST! -

PUT OFF OF T And Man with Toothache, .Who Had to Walk Twenty-four Miles, Sues. (National Newt Association) SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 14. Jurors In the Spokane county superior court, to be conrened the first week In Sep tember", will be called upon to decide what is a reasonable balm wher. a pas senger, suffering from toothache, is ejected from a train and forced to walk twenty-four miles to enlist the tervlses of a dentist-surgeon. John 11. Larson, who is the central figure In this hard luck story, wants $20,000 from the Great Northern Rail way company for what is described tn his complaint as "humiliation, hame, disgrace and physical pain." Counsel for the company has asked for details. Stripped of its legal verbiage, the complaint ' sets forth that Larson boarded a Spokane-bound train in Lincoln county on June 29, 1911. He was told by fhe ticket agent to pay the conductor, as there was not sufficient time to sell a ticket. On the train Larson tendered a $20 gold coin, but Conductor Stedman refused to accept it In payment of fare, saying the coin was spurious. Larson had $3.15 in silver, but that amount was not sufficient to ray his fare to Spokane, so the train was stopped and the passenger ejected. He fought the agent in the station at Waukon, who pronounced "walk on," and was told the next train would be along in fourteen hours, so he decided to follow the "tip" on the sign. Meanwhile, the pain of the aching tooth became more aggravated, and when Larson reached Spokane, following the long hike on the grade, his jaw was swollen so his friends failed to recognize him, and this continued until the offending molar was extracted. Moreover, Larson found the gold coin was one of Uncle Sam's own make and he readily obtained $20 when he tendered It at a local bank. This and a few other things prompted him to enter the action against the corporation, which will contest the suit , The coming Jay County Fair will eclipse all former exhibitions in agriculture, mechanics, merchandise, woman's work art, science, education and transportation. August 28 to September 1. . ' HI PROBATE COURT .. The estate of Harmon B. Rothert who died on April 4, has been admitted to probate. William Rothert is named administrator and filed $400 bond. Benjamin Thomas, administrator of the estate of the late Priscilla E. Thomas has filed final report, showing the total value of the estate was $1,370.09. After obligations had been met, the administrator had $178.69 for distribution among six heirs. AFinal report of the executorship of Daniel R. Hrnthaw 1n the estate of the late Caroline M. Henshaw, has been filed in the Wayne probate court. The total charges were $860 and he distributed $520.06 after paying off debts against the estato. ' Curious Custom.

A n Equitable

The Palladium submits herewith a plan which it believes to be fair and Just to the. city and , the contracting company which will furnish the city with water. , - The main points only are named, but we believe It would be an easy matter to work out the details if these points were agreed to by both parties. The suggested plan is in no wise to be construed as dictation to the present administration, but only as a suggestion to reach a final 'equitable adjustment. It is proposed that the city prepare a revised set of specifications including the points mentioned below and let the companies make their bids on the price of water to the consumer and to the city for hydrant rentals under the new specifications. As stated elsewhere in this issue, under an act passed by the legislature, the city has the right to compel the company to bring its books before council and show bow much money has been invested in the plant to date. By this means the city can arrive at a fair valuation of the plant and base its demands for a fair contract. The plan suggested is to value the plant on the actual amount of money Invested to date, less depreciation.

The city is to share in the earnings of the company after the fixed charges are paid and a fair return given to the company on the actual amount of money Invested. We submit the following points:

Contract not to be made for ten years. The city to have the option to The city to have the right good terms, at the expiration of

Valuation of the plant to be arrived at as follows: Council to compel the company to produce its books and other evidence that will show the exact amount of money invested in the plant to date. This amount, less depreciation, will be taken as the value of the plant during the life of the contract, except as to extensions and improvements, which, when made, are to be added to the valuation.

All bonds are to bear 5 interest. Extensions are to be covered by bonds bearing the same rate of interest.

The company to be allowed earnings up to 6 on the actual valuation of the plant, determined as above, less the amount of bonded indebtedness, after the payment of interest on bonds ind other fixed charges have been deducted from the gross receipts. The city is to have all earnings over 6. The company is not guaranteed anything.

The amount due the city, from the earnings of the company, is to be deposited in a fund to be used in the purchase of the plant, and. in case the city so desires, the amount due the city as above provided for, may be applied in readjusting the rates to the small consumer. The city'may also have the option, that in case a public utility commission or a corresponding commission is appointed by the State, to refer readjustment of rates to this commission and the company is to be bound by the decision of that commission.

Any franchise rights which the company claims to hold, will cease at the expiration of the contract.

Number and salaries of the by the city.

Quality of the water to be equal to the standard fixed by the State Board of Health and the City Health Department. - :mm If a new water supply is secured, the city must approve. . ; i.

City to have free water for all legitimate purposes. Wastage to be charged at the rate of 6 cents per 1,000 gallons.

No meter rent.' Meter optional the right to test meters.

A minimum rate of from 20 to 30 cents per month to be established.

City to have the right to prescribe eeasonable rules and regulations for the tapping of mains. Taps to be made at actual cost.

.'Fire pressure to be equal to requirements in the present contract and adequate to meet any requirements that may arise during the life of the next contract.

Duplicate water main to be laid immediately from the pumping station to the city, and the balance of Improvements suggested by 'Maury to be made as soon as practicable, time of completion of such work to be specified. ,

Extensions " to be ordered by Council and payment to continue until such a time, as there is a revenue equal to the fire hydrant extension rental.

The water rates to be equalized so that there will be no discrimination In favor of the large consumer.

Meters to be set free of charge.

Heavy penalties for not fulfilling requirements of contract as to pure water, fire pressure and service.

LEAVES ST. LOUIS Oil GREAT FLIGHT Atwood in His Aeroplane, Sets Out Today for Boston Amid an Ovation. SPRINGFIELD. Ills., Aug. 14. Harry N."

A WOMAN'S LOGIC. It Helped Her Out When the Customs Officials Bothered Her.

On one of the recently arriving iransauanuc steamers was a young woman whose extreme economy had not permitted any lavish expenditure abroad. But she had repeatedly referred with commendable pride to the material for two silk dresses she bad purchased at a bargain which sbe was bringing home for her mother and sister. Even the suggestion of one sympathetic listener that she would have to pay duty produced merely a tem porary restraint. Finally when the liner approached New Vork and the custom bouse officer received the somewhat plain woman at the cabin table her fellow passengera were curious. Being asked the usual questions about dutiable property, she replied stoutly and dettautly that she bad the material for two silk dresses. -Are they for yourself?" the inspector wanted to know. "So. they are not." sbe declared. "1 am bringing them borne for presents." "Then since tbey are not for your own use I shall be compelled to charge you duty," and be figured out for her the required amount. Taking the pencil from bis hand, sbe figured for a moment and then said: -Well. I declare! That has made those dresses cost me so much that I simply can't afford to give them away now. I'm Just going to keep them for myself; that's what I'll do!" New York Tribune. LET THE YAWN COME. A Good One Is a Splendid Thing For tho Whole Body. A good. wide, open mouthed yawn is a splendid thing for the whole body. A yawn is nature's demand for rest. Some people think they only yawn because they are sleepy, but this Is not so. You yawn because you are tired. You may be sleepy also, but that is not the real cause of your yawning. Tou are sleepy because yon are tired, and you yawn because you are tiredWhenever you feel like yawning Just yawn. Don't try to suppress it because you think it Is impolite to yawn. Put your band over your moutb if you want to. .but let the yawn come. And If you are where you can stretch at the same time that you yawn Just stretch and yawn. This is nature's way of stretching and relaxing tbe muscles. Don't be afraid to open your moutb wide and yawn and stretch whenever you feel like it. Indeed, if you are very tired, but do not feel like yawning, there is nothing that will rest you so quickly as to sit on a straight back chair and. lifting your feet from the floor, push tbem out in front of you as far as possible, stretch tbe arms, put the bead back, open the moutb wide and make yourself yawn. Those tense nerves will relax, tbe contracted muscles will stretch and the whole body will be rested. Do this two or three times when you are tired and see what it will do for you. First English Horse Races. Chester possesses plausible claims to be tbe birthplace of the British turf. It was one William Lester, who about i;09. "being mayor of Chester, did cause three silver bells to be made cf good value to be run for upon the Roode Dee." This seems tbe earliest d finite establishment of a horse race. From the nature of tbe prize was derived tbe proverb "To bear the bell," though tbe bells in this case existed long before tbe !ring." Our ancestors being more easily satisfied in tbe matter of amusement than their degenerate descendants, there was apparently only one contest. The "Chester cup." wbicb has been substituted for tbe "best bell." is now worth 2.500. to say nothing of Cheshire cheeses for the three placed horses. Westminster Gazette. Putting on Style. "Well, I never!" "What's the matter, my dear?" "Why, cook says that those people who live in that insignificant little house opposite came over here while we were away and were photographed sitting on our veranda !" Pearson's. "COMPLICATION OF DISEASES." How often one hears this expression. It means a condition in which no one disease fully develops, but symptoms of various disorders are present. Poisoned, impure blood would explain the cause in nine out of ten euch cases. It matters not if the blood be poisoned by inoculation, or by the failure of one or more of the important glands of the body to perform their duties, a powerful alterative or blood purifier, is necessary to cleanse it, and in so doing removes the cause. Dr. A. B. Simpson's Vegetable Compound is the most thorough and powerful alterative or blood purifier ever known, a fact which is firmly established, and supported by testimony of hundreds of grateful people. It is harmless as it is effective, and sold at one dollar a bottle at all drug stores.
