G. GOURSEN 439 Lackawanna Ave. and Green Ridge Street, Cor. Dickson Avenue. It JENKINS WINS CASE Court Says That the Rushbrook Coal Company Failed to Show a Secret Consideration.

JUDGMENT TO BE OPENED Judge. H. M. Edwards handed down an interesting opinion yesterday morning in the long drawn out equity case of the Rushbrook Coal company against John S. Jenkins in which he dismissed the bill of the plaintiff at the latter's cost and directs the pro thonotary to file the decree nisi, allowing the usual time for exceptions to be filed.

The plaintiff was the owner part and the lessee in part of about six hundred acres of coal land In this county on which there was a mining operation. After several years of operation of the mines the company sold its property in 1S92 to J. N. Rice who in turn transferred the same property in the same month to the Blue Ridge Coal company. For some time subsequent to the negotiations resulting in the sale of the property, the defendant, John S.

Jenkins, was president, superintendent and director of the plain tist company. It was charged that Jen kins for the services he performed in the negotiations secretly received from J. N. Rice for his own use and without the knowledge of the other directors certain property consisting of shares of stock In various corporations and real estate, all said to be worth about twenty thousand dollars. These trans actions were not disclosed until about three years ago at a trial before a ref eree in the case of Jenkins against the Rushbrook company.

1 The plaintiff asked court to compel the defendant to transfer to the com pany the valuation he was supposed to have received for his services to Rice. The court holds that the plaintiff failed to show that Jenkins in his official ca; pacity received a secret consideration from Rice and that the plaintiff has not made out a case. TO OPEN JUDGMENT. A rule to open judgment in the case of the Petersburg Manufacturing company against Edward Briggs and Clara Bell Briggs was granted by the court yesterday afternoon. The defendants allege that there has been sharp practice by Attorney George M.

Okell, representing the plaintiffs. The defendant, Edward Briggs, owed the plaintiff about twenty dollars. On July 24, 1904, Briggs was trading with the plaintiff company and on that date Mr. Okell, he alleges, came to him and his wife with a paper for them to sign representing to them that it was not a note but on the contrary It proved to be a judgment note with all waivers and what is commonly called a cut throat note clause. for the sum of one hundred dollars.

It is sot forth in the petition for the rule to open Judgment that they were misled and they do not owe the plaintiff any such amount of money and there fore ask the court to open the Judgment and let them into a defense. The execution has been issued on the judg ment and the sheriff has made a levy. AFFIDAVIT IN DEFENSE. Martha Stark Thomas yesterday af ternoon filed an affidavit in defense in the office of Prothonotarj Cummlngs in the replevin suit which was recently filed against her by her former husband, C. D.

Stark, of the North End. It will be remembered that the couple were recently divorced. When they, separated an agreement was drawn between them whereby the husband took one of their daughters to raise and the wife took the other. It was stipulated in the agreement that Mrs. Stark should have the household goods on condition that she should raise one of the daughters.

Mrs. Stark was married to a man named Thomas soon after the legal separation from her husband and the daughter whom she undertook to raise It was alleged, was placed by her In the Home for the Friendless, against the stipulations of the agreement which they made at the time of the separation. On the grounds of the violation of this agreement by his former wife. Stark brought suit to recover the goods. The defendant now sets forth In her affidavit of defense that she has never had the goods which have been described In the replevin suit of her first husband and that she not only did not place the daughter in the Home for the Friendless, but that her former husband actually took the child from her by force and has not given her an opportunity to comply with the conditions of the agreement.

Mr. Funk on "The Crucifixion." The Christian and Missionary Alliance convention held three sessions yesterday. At 9 o'clock George B. Sherman led a devotional meeting and was followed at 10 o'clock by B. F.

Armstrong, who gave a Bible reading on "Symbols of the Word." God's word Is a mirror. Heb. 4 12. He said it not only shows us what we are, but what God wants us to be and what, by his grace, we will be. It is also a laver in which we are to be cleansed as Aaron and his sons had to wash in the laver before they could minister and serve in the temple.

So we must be cleanspd by the word of God, if we do effective work for him. Then it Is a lamp to our feet and a light to our (aith. In Oriental countries It was the custom to have a horn filled with oil strapped to the sandal of. the right foot. As the traveler walked the light was thrown over the path, thus mak' Ing traveling comparatively easy.

Lastly, the word is food. It is milk for young Christians, as they. are not able to digest heavy food. It Is meat for matured Christians and honey for all. God us the luxuries of life as well as the necessities.

We, like Job, should esteem his words more than our necessary food. At 11 o'clock Rev. A. E. Funk, of New York, gave a Bible study, taking as his subject "The Crucifixion of the Old Man." When Christ was crucified the death blow was struck to all flesh ly ambitions and desires.

We should reckon ourselves to be dead indeed unto sin. Satan, by virtue of the re demptlon, has no right over us. The cross settled everything of death and the resurrection everything of life. We, in our life of bondage, need deliverance and a deliverer. As Christ comes in he forces out all opposition.

At 2 clock Mr. Armstrong led a praise service and was followed by Mrs. Graham, of Africa. At 3 o'clock Rev. Milton M.

Bales, D. gave a message on the word "let." This afternoon Rev. A. E. Funk will speak on "Unseen Forces at Work for and Against Us." The Young People's meeting at 6:30 will be followed by an evangelistic service in the tent.

OUST THE DEMON. A Tussle With Coffee. There is something fairly demoniacal In the way coffee sometimes wreaks its fiendish malice on those who use It. A lady writing from California says: "My husband and both lovers of coffee, suffered for some time from a very annoying form of nervousness, accompanied by most frightful headaches. In my own case there was eventually developed some sort of affection of the nerves leading from the spine to the heud.

"I was unable to hold my head up straight, the tension of the nerves drew it to one side, causing me the most Intense "pain. We got no relief from medicine, and were puzzled as to what caused tho trouble, till a friend suggested that possibly the coffee we drank hnd something to do with it, and advised that we quit it and try Fob turn Coffee. "We followed his advice, and from the day that we began to use Postum we both began to improve, in a very short time both of us were entirely relieved. The nerves became steady once more, the headarhos ceased, the muscles in the buck of my neck relaxed, my head straightened up and the dreadful pain that had so punished me while I used the old kind of coffee vanished. "We have never resumed the use of the old coffee, but relish our Postum every day as well as we did the former beverage.

And we are delighted to find that we can give It. freely to our children also, something we never dared to do with the old kind of coffee." Name given by Postum Battle Creek. Mich. Postum Coffee contains absolutely no drugs of any kind, but relieves the coffee drinker from the old drug poison. There's a reason.

Three hearty laughs were occasioned in police court yesterday by the arraignment of Richard Murphy before Magistrate Ho.we. Murphy was charged with being a vagrant. Dirty and ragged he was ushered In with a broad smile of which he is the proud possessor. "Did I understand you to say that you lived lp France, Mr. Murpny; the magistrate asked with a twinkle in his eye.

'No, soree," said Murphy, "Ol'm from Scranton. "Oh, you are, eh? Well, what have you to say In answer to the charge of being a 'vagrant? Seems to me," the magistrate added, "that you were sent up to jail on several other occasions." "Oi was," Murphy agreed with a complacent smile, "Do you work hard, nowadays?" asked the inquisitive Judge. "Yis, sor," said Murphy, "see thlm fists? Don't they look lolke wurruk?" "They do, Indeed." Now It was the magistrate who agreed with a smile, "and pray," he smiled again, "what is your work called?" "Well, yer 'onner," Murphy dt awled, "OI shoVel snow." The court laughed one resounding, hearty laugh, but the magistrate laughed three times which all goes to show that he was amused. "Six months," came from the judge between laughs. Those who expected to see Murphy disheartened were disappointed miserably.

Instead, the prisoner brightened. His eyes shone with satisfaction as he exclaimed In glee, "Good fer you, judge. Put It there." and he extended his dirty fist, The magistrate laughed some more when Murphy supplemented his previous remarks with: "Whin Oi come out It'll be Just my busy season, won't It?"
