8 A. SAKE SECURES JUDG.TAMES A. SAKE SECURES JUDG- MENT AGAINST PATTIE C. WOMACK FOR THE SIM OF $6,300. FORt THE- SUM OF PECULIAR SUIT RESULTING FROM A REAL ESTATE DEAL.

Womack, Judge Otis yes- terday filed a decision giving judgment in favor of the plaintiff $0,300. The case is a peculiar one in some re- spects. The court finds that in 1893 the plaintiff had some lots at Ken- sington Heights, the prospective value of which was $1,300 apiece, but, the hard times being on, they could not be sold for $500 each at the time. In order to dispose of some of the property at its prospective value, the plaintiff authorized one George Griggs to loan some money on good security to any one who would purchase one of the lots. The defendant applied to Griggs for a loan of $5,000, and, in order to get the money, took one of the lots at $1,300, securing the entire amount, $6,300, by mortgage.

The de- fendant also gave to Griggs another lot valued at about $100 as commission for getting the loan for him. When default in the payment of the interest was made, and Saxe brought suit to recover on the mortgage, the defendant set up a plea of usury. But the court finds that there was no in- tention on the part of the plaintiff to get more for the use of the money than 10 per cent, as the mortgage only draws 7 per cent, and the plaintiff had every reason to believe that the actual value of the lot was $1,000. As the mortgage was to run three years, the additional $300 does not more than equal the additional 3 per cent for the whole period. The court finds that, in so far as the commission paid Griggs apparently tends to make the transaction usurious, the transfer of the lot to Griggs was en entirely voluntary act on the part of the defendant, and Saxe had noth- ing at all to do with it, not even knowing that Griggs had received any commission from Womack.

Josie Bergen, the young woman who Josfe Fergen, the young woman who triod to bang herself, but was prevent- ed from doing so by the breaking of the rope a few days ago, was yesterday examined in the probate court on a charge of insanity and ordered committed to the asylum at Rochester.

She also had visions of her dead mother. MILL TEST THE LAW.

Butcher Bpangenberg Resists Pay- ment of License. Albert Spangenberg proposes to test Albert Spangenberg proposes to test the validity of the ordinance requiring butchers to obtain a license before they can sell meat. This ordinance was passed last January. Mr. Span- genberg confessed that upon the date named in the complaint he had sold meat and that he did not possess a license to do so.

A fine of $20, with the alternative of twenty days, was the sentence of the court. Mr. Spangen- berg will remain in custody (construct- ive) while his attorney, Walter Chapin, the ex-assistant city attorney, will test the validity of the ordinance in habeas corpus proceedings before a district court judge. Mr. Chapin bases his contention that the ordinance is void upon the ground that under the city charter the com- mon council has no authority to pass a general ordinance prohibiting the selling of meat outside of market hours.

The ordinance in question specifies no time, and makes it unlawful for a meat dealer to sell meat at any hour of the day without a license. 7 HEARD BY APPEAL JUDGES.

In the case of Jen- nic Severns against J. Brainerd, the court affirms the decision of the lower court and awards damages to the amount of $1,090.45 to the plaintiff for malicious prosecution of a civil suit. Mrs. Severns and her husband rented a store from Brainerd. In May, 1892, he ordered them to leave the building, and, as Mr.

Severns says, without any cause. He also demanded $140 rent, and the plaintiff claims that only $20 was owing him. Mr. Severns offered to pay the but Brainerd refused to accept it, and brought suit to recover $140. He afterwards allowed the suit to be dis- missed without trial.

After Mrs. Sev- ems brought the damage suit against him, he brought another suit to re- cover the $140. In the trial court a verdict for $22.04 was found for Brainerd, and $1,090.45 in damages was awarded to Mrs. Sev- ems. The case was appealed by Brainerd, and now the supreme court affirms the decision of the lower court.

The syllabus follows: xZyXfyZ. Jennie Severns, respondent, race J. Brainerd, appellant. Where in an action brought for the malicious prose- cution of a civil suit the evidence tended to prove that it was -brought without probable cause, and that the plaintiff therein without any other ap- parent reason permitted the suit to be dismissed without trial: Held, that evidence of the subsequent commencement by him of another suit against the same defendant upon the same cause of action is admissible to show malice. Judgment affirmed.

A decision of importance to school districts was made in the case of i Michael Stadtler et al. vs. School Dis- trict No. 40, of Houston County. Ac- cording to the decision of the supreme court the case ought to have been de- i cided against the district.

The syl- labus reads: Michael Stadtler et appellants, vs. District School No. 40, County of Houston, et respondents. Where a school house site has once been desig- nated, and is situated within one-quar- i ter of a mile from the center of the district, it cannot be changed unless at least a majority of the legal voters in the district who have resided there- in for a period of at least months prior to such vote," and two-thirds of the voters so qualified who "are" present and voting, vote in favor of such change, and, therefore, Held, that these acts must be con- current, That at least a major- ity of all the legal voters In the dis- i trict must vote in favor of changing I the site, and in addition thereto two- 1 thirds of all the legal voters present and voting must vote in favor thereof before such change can be lawfully effectuated.

Y'-Y At the evening service in the -camp At the evening service in the camp of the Adventists at Merriam Park the large pavilion was nearly filled with an appreciative congregation. Elder Fifield discoursed from James 1-8, in which Scripture he thought could see a vivid pen picture of the present time, so perilous and dangerous because of the strife between labor and capital, strikes, riots, arson, battle and bloodshed. He especially, emphasized that part of the text that declares that this state of affairs is to be reached in the last days, when "The coming of Lord draweth nigh," and exhorted his hearers to "prepare to meet their God," and to "lift up their heads and rejoice because their redemption draweth nigh." He read from the Bible, and believed that "when they shall say peace and safety (as almost the entire religious world is saying just now), then sudden destruction shall come upon them, and they shall not escape." Yesterday morning, instead of the usual prayer and praise meetings, the campers all assembled in the pavilion at 5:30 to listen to Prof. Soughhead, president of Union college, of College View, Neb. "Union College" was his subject.

This institution was erected four years ago to accommodate the youth of the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, lowa, North and South Dakota and Nebraska. The present enrollment is about five hundred, and the phenomenal success of the school in every detail of its work is the subject of daily inquiry from representatives of other schools, and others who are interested in educational affairs. Early in the day Elder O. A. Olson, of Battle Creek, president of the general conference, arrived on the grounds, and at 8 o'clock he addressed the laborers of the Minnesota conference concerning the sacredness of and importance of their work.

At 9 a. m. the third meeting of the conference convened. After the reading and approval of the minutes the secretary read a report showing the addition during the past year to the sixty-eight churches of the conference. to be 141 members, not including several unorganized companies who have accepted the faith.

7 Elder H. R. Johnson, of Wisconsin, addressed the people in the pavilion, at 10:30 m. "Labor For Others, or the Work of the Ministry," was his theme, and Acts his text. Jesus Christ, in His life of unselfish, self-sacrificing labors or others, was again uplifted as the pattern and example to be copied by.

all His followers. 7-Y Experience" was the subject of Elder Durland's discourse, at 2:30. He said there is no place In the genuine Christian experience for doubt, gloom and despondency, because "His grace Is sufficient" There can be no darkness when "He, who is light," and "in whom is no darkness at all" is with us, as He promises to be, "even unto the end of the world." 7 7 At the close of the meeting, in response to an invitation given, a large number came forward to seek for and obtain this experience. During the remainder of the afternoon various inquiry and consecration meetings were held In the different tents. REGISTERED TRAVELERS.

New York Recorder. Empress Elizabeth, of Austria, after an interval fof twelve years, has re- turned v- the visit paid by the Itallaii king and queen to Vienna, and the manner in which she performed this act of courtesy so long neglected must certainly have gone far to atone for the slight contained in the delay.

I The main obstacle to the return the call has been until now the iraf i possibility of any Catholic sovereign becoming the' guest of King Humbert at the quirinal without giving deep of ense to the pope. It has been quietly. suggested on several occasions that there would be such objection to a at the royal castle of Monza, near Milan, -but the Italian "court turned a deaf ear thereto and pointed out with some degree 'of justice that inasmuch as King Humbert and Queen Marque- rite had gone to Vienna it -was only fair that the emperor and empress of Austria should visit the king and queen at Rome. 7 The other day. King Humbert' and Queen Marguerite proceeded from Rome to Venice for the.

purpose of opening the great exhibition now lin progress there. To their astonishment they found on their arrival the big yacht Miramar, belonging to the em- press, in port, and they had scarcely reached the palace when they were warned that Empress Elizabeth had left the Miramar, and was on her way to their abode for the purpose of paying.them a visit. King Humbert just had time to reach the foot of the marble, steps which led down to the Grand canal when the empress' launch drew up, and, as he handed her out, he bent Very low to kiss her hand. At the top of the steps Queen Marguerite awaited the em- who was arrayed in black velvet, and the greeting between the two royal ladies was of the most cordial and even affectionate character, they em- bracing each other several times. The visit lasted about half an.

hour, and the empress had scarcely time to reach her yacht before King Hum- bert and his queen were on their way to return the visit on board the Mira. mar. What rendered the compliment paid by the empress so particularly grateful to the Italians was the fact- that the paid at Venice of all places In the world. For Venice for- merly belonged to Austria, which was forced to surrender it to Italy at the close -of the disastrous war of 1566, and in that very palace where Queen Mar- guerite played the part of hostess to Empress Elizabeth the latter had for- merly reigned supreme as its mistress, and- had spent within its walls some of 7the happiest well the saddest days of her life. SHOALS That Have Long Obstructed Navigation of the Tennessee.

the Tennessee. New York Tribune. I After ascending i the Tennessee river about- 270 miles from Its mouth, steamer encounters, near Florence, islands and shoals that have long proved a serious obstacle to navigation. These extend up stream 37 miles, and beyond them there is ah excellent channel to Kingston, nearly 400 miles distant, where' the Clinch and Holston unite form the' Several of the' tributaries, as well as the'main stream, are navigable for. many miles; so that the commercial of circumventing the obstructions 7 re-, ferred to has been obvious for nearly a century.

Around a portion of "these, the Big Mussel Shoals, a 'canal was built more than sixty years ago. But this was inadequate to meet the difficulty. It its announced, however, that very recently, after, renewed but intermit- tent work extending" through a period of eighteen years, the government has opened a channel all the way past the blockading formations. For one section, seven miles long, this, route lies along the northern bank, a series of dams' connecting several islands serving to confine part of the river here- and it flow briskly; then there is a- regular canal, fourteen miles in length and provided with nine locks, extending over the next section, and finally a series of dams, very much like the first; compels the current to hug the Southern bank for six and one- half miles more. In addition to the work already done, one; more under- taking is necessary to put the river in proper condition.

A out twenty miles below -Florence an eight-mile canal is to be constructed' around the Colbert shoals, which are not easily passed at low water. The level of the Tennes- see is subject to great changes, and at times these shoals are serious ob- stacle to steamboats. 7 A cleverVorter. Philadelphia Item. 7 "Talk about dreis reform!" ex- claimed Geraldlne, after the subject had been discussed in that tired sort of way that seemed to "belong: to such a threadbare subject; "the clothes we have would suit me, at least, ex- cellently well, if there was only some reasonably easy way of getting into them.

7 you believe it, I haven't had a gown for six months that I- could get into without the assistance "of at least one other person. "And even then I only accomplished the feat after a long and minute" ex- planation 3 from my dressmaker." "That reminds me," I said Lucia, sol. emnly, "of a perfectly horrible mci dent that occurred lately when I to go to Ohio to attend; Aunt Annie's funeral. j- "I had told the dressmaker to make me a simple black gown, and until I got on the train I thought It absolutely perfect in its severe plainness.

"There was riot a woman on the train. The bad weather had made drop off considerably, and there were only ai few drummers aboard.

I could hear papa snoring -in his berth, and knew -it would be impossible sto awaken him, and, besides, he, would be of no use even if he were 'awake. "So, about the eleventh time the porter 'came- around i to' ask jif he should make up my berth, I mustered up the courage of despair, and asked him to unfasten my gown.

SALT LAKE CITY, June The Oregon Short- Line and Utah Northern receivership came up before Judge Merritt today. Distinguisheg lawyers were present for both sides of the case. Mr. Story, for the American Loan and Trust company, opened the proceedings by reciting the history of the now notable case, He said inter- est on the mortgage was in default, and, the traffic contract having been broken by the Union Pacific, it had claim; therefore the American Loan and Trust company demanded its rights under the mortgage. It was wrong to place both interests, which were adverse to each other, the same hands.

The loan company of- fered to pay the interest on the first mortgage, and asked the termination of the Union Pacific receivership. Sen- ator Thurston said: "We are willing if you pay, but you ask the court to raise the money by receiver's certificates." Mr. Storey said they only asked the right to pay" it out of their own property. Judge; Merritt made several inquiries as -to the intention to leave the Utah Southern 'extension, and was informed such not the but there was no direct as- surance the loan and trust company would take that extension. 7 Judge Sanborn, representing the first mortgage bondholders, argued against; the separate receivership.

He said that larger interests were in of those who ask for the retention of five receivers now in charge of the Union Pacific. If the loan company would pay the first mortgage-default- ing interest, then it would have a right to ask for separate receivers, but I they do not pay the interest, and in asking for the issuance of receivers' certificates for. that purpose they practically ask the court to borrow the money. Mr. Hill followed in the in- terest of the Oregon Short Line com- pany.

He objected to the issue of re- ceivers' certificates, and claimed only a portion of the road was to be taken, as agreed upon with the loan company, and it was an effort to dismember the road and increase the indebtedness. of the. Short Line. P. L.

Williams, rep- resenting the Union Pacific and the local stockholders, said if a receiver was appointed it should be stipulated that the entire road should be taken, and that the receiver should be some man who was acquainted with all the interests. Judge Marshall, 7 for the loan and trust company, said the suit five receivers: were ap- pointed was. a collusive suit, and the parties did not represent any of the Creditors of the Union Pacific. He urged the claim; for the loan company to? a receiver was a right which could not be denied. The hearing will be continued tomorrow.
