The old, old case of Beach against Wood- ward was brought up once more in Judge Macy's court yesterday by means of a sup- plementary petition by the plaintiff, who was awarded judgment some time ago against the defendants, to have the defend- ants required to come into court and testify as to what property they had. The plaintiff claims that each one has a watch, which, if sold, would bring in something. The de- fendants, on the other hand, claim that a watch is & part of & man's wearing apparel and therefore exempt from execution. After the court had heard the decisions on the point he took the case under advisement, re- marking as he did 50 that it seemed to him as though a watch ought to be considered as much a part of the wearing apparel as cuff | buttons or other similar articles of jewelry, | and he should so decide unless the decisions | should very clearly contradiet his view. This morning the two cases of Landis and Flickinger against the Omaha Bridge and Terminal Railway company will be up for trial. The plaintiffs are suing for damages by reason of the defendant running its line of track in front of their property on Eighteenth street, near Avenue B. The trial of the cases on the criminal cal- endar will be taken up Wednesday. Alas the poor dyspeptics! What trials they have! They would have none at all if they would eat food cooked with Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder, Cheeky Thieves. Mr. Stevens of Omaha has had his boat, the “Carrie,” tied in front of the Rowing assoclation boat house at Manawa during the past summer. It was the largest and one of the finest sall boats on the lake. Last Saturday he went to the lake and found the | boat missing. He instituted a search, and, | after going the lake over, at last found the | boat tied near Wright's landing, on the south side, with the sail neatly folded and | the masts taken down and securely tied to the keel. It was all ready to be shipped, and had Mr. Stevens been a little slower about finding out what had been done he | would probably have stood but little show of | ever seelng it again. The job is supposed to have been done by the same gang that stole the salls off of two other sail boats at the lake last week.

The three fellows were so- clable, their liquor was refreshing, their dinner was good, and Buchel froze to them. While the three Omaha men were down taking a pull at the keg, Buchel made off with the gun and did mot turn up until yesterday morning, when he was found in a haymow in the eastern part of the ocity, with the gun in his possession.

The money was pald in during Mead's incumbency by homesteaders when making homestead entries, final proofs or commutations, and was not turned over to the government or afterwards accounted for. Consequently homesteaders were unable to et their receipts or patents and could not realize returns on years of privation and toil spent in perfecting their rights to home. steads.

Trlai 15.—The long and sensa- tlonal struggle for the person and estate of Ebenezer M. Byers, the Allegheny iron mas ter, was decided today. Henry Warner was appointed missioner for the lunatic. While Warner was agreed upon by Mrs. E. M. Byers and A. M. Byers, the lunatic's brother, it fs really a vietory for Mrs. Byers. E. M. Byers Is still in the Pennsylvania Hospital for the Insane at Philadelphia, o Our Great Grandfather’s Time, big bulky pills were in general use. Like the “blunderbuss’ of that decade they were big and clumi- sy, but ineffec- tive. In this cent- ury of enlight- enment, we have Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel- lets, which cure all liver, stomach and bowel derange- ments in the most effective way. Assist Nature a little now and then, with a gentle, cleansing laxative, thereby removing of- fending matter from the stomach and bowels, toning up and invigorating the liver and quickening its tardy action, and you thereby remove the cause of a multitude of distressing diseases, such as headaches, indigestion, or dyspepsia, biliousness, pim\fics, blotclies, eruptions, boils, constipation, piles, fistulas and maladies too numerous to mention, If people would pay more attention to roperly regulating ‘the action of their owels, they would have less fre- quent occasion to call for their doctor's services 1o subdue attacks of dangerous That, of all known agents to accom- plish this purpose, Dr. Pierce's Pleasant i unequaled, is proven by the fact that once used, they are always in favor.

Drs, Copeland and Shepard Carin, Expense and Al 8o far from there being any abatement or v clear signs of abatement in the recent wide prevalence of all manner of climatic and catarrhal maladies, there is no question but that the past week has been worse than the preceding. Drs. Copeland and Shepard, who are perhaps closest to the people gener- ally, in their professional capacity, have no hesitation in declaring the maladies referred to now definitely and decidedly epidemic And it is needless to add that family physi- clans of large practice, professionally fa- miliar with climatic action on the human system, and personally conversant with the present situation, confirm the statement as unquestionably trie, Nor ont any is the absence of any alarming pres increase in the death rate of the city evidence to the contrary, The curse of the maladies now prevalent does not lie in their immediate or early fatality. The dar ger and the horror of them is in & postpone fatality—in their innevitable liability to be ome settled and ehronic, with no other prospect if neglected, than that of a long period of suffering.
