" WANT PHONE REPLACED L. Blooston Mandamuses Phone Co. to Retain Use of Instrument. “HELLO” GIRL SAYS HE USED BAD LANGUAGE. E Claims That Man Called Her Bad Names Because She Could Not Get Right Number. | Arguments in a mandamus proceeding instituted by L. Bloos- ton, proprictor of the Arcade sa loon, against the Iron Range Electric Telephone Co., were heard by Judge Spooner in dis- trict court this morning. The 5 suitis brought to compel the company to replace a telephone which had been removed from the Blooston establishment, be- cause of alleged misuse of the ’phone against the general rules of the company. | Mr. Blonston sets forth in his complaint that the local manager of the company removed the in- strument without due cause, and asks that the court order its re- installment, as his business is wmaterially injured thru the re- moval of the 'phone. Four witnesses were examined and the telephone company set up a counter charge that Mr. Blooston had used bad language in speaking to one of the operat- ors on the night of Dec. 7. The eperator herself, as well as her assistant, stated upon oath that he had called her a bad name over the phone, but both Mr. Blooston ahd a bartender who was within a few feet of him at the time he was telephoning, swear that he had not used any | indecent language. The telephone girl says that he wag calling for No. 8, and that | althesgie she had rung several | times she was" unsuccessful in getting an answer, dnd that Mr. Blooston became angry, using language which is prohibited over the lines of the company. The case was taken under ad- visement by Judge Spooner and adecision is looked for tomorrow. Lecture Monday Evening. Mrs. L.

Ghe BAZAAR STORE Do Not Suppress a Cough. When you have a cough do not try to suppress it, but remove the cause. The cough is only a symptom of some disease,- and the disease is what you should cure, then the cough will stop it- self. The most common cause of coughing is a cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress the cough and preparations containing chloroform, opium, etc., are used for that purpose, but they do not cure the cold. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy on the other hand does not suppress the cough, but relieves it by removing from the throat and lungs the mucus which obstructed the breathing and allaying the irritation and tickling in the throat. It also opens the secretions and effectu- ally and permanently cures the cold as well as the cough. For sale by Barker’s Drug store.
