The cusp of. Cooper against thp elty
was argued by ox-Jmlgo K. X. Wlllaril
for thu appellee, and City Solloltor
George 51. Watson for the appellant. It
is a suit growing out oC the alleged
faulty construction ol the Fourteenth
ward sewer. The plaintiff recovered for
damages iloue his property on Klghth
Ftroet by water overllowlng from a
sewer which was or insufficient capac
ity. Under tho general rule in this stale,
a municipality is not liable for dam
agon resulting Horn an error of judg
ment on tho part of any of her officials.
If a Kixtecn-inch sewer was, in the
Judgment of the city authorities, suf
ficient to caio for the water, and a slx-tcea-lneh
sewer was built, the city
could not bo held liable for damages
that might result from the sewer being
too small.
CAUSE OF DAMAGES.
Tn some states It is tho law that the
city can be made liable if notice of tho
r.iult is given and proof of the faultl
iess furnished. In this case, Cooper
wintered damage from the incapacity of
the bower and brought notice thereof
home to the city authorities. No action
was taken to remedy the fault, and
some time later his properly was again
damaged by an overllow.
At the trial of the rase, the lower
court adopted the rule obtaining In
other htntes, by which tho city is made
i.-ible after notice of its dplielcney is
;ii ought to It. and directed that the
Jury could find for Cooper, which It did.
The Superior court is therefore now
called noon to confirm the precedent
thus established.
The cases of Kdgnr against Callender
and Reynolds against Callender were
argued together, being similar in every
detail. Clarence Valentino represented
the appellant, and AV. S. Dlehl, the ap
pellees. The plaintiffs, on January 1), 1000,
each bought of the defendant one hun
dred shares of tho capital stock of the
Arizona Eastern and Montana Smelt
ing, Ore-Producing and Delovopment
company, at $3 a share, with the under
standing that the defendant would buy
it back at the end of six months for $C
a. share, at the option of the purchasers,
or fifteen days' written notice. AVhen
the six months were up they elected to
re-sell, but be would not buy, and suit
was brought to recover. The plaintiffs
secured judgment for the full amount,
with interest.
WAS ACTING AS AGENT.
Tho defense is that Callender was
noting only as agent for the company,
and further, that the terms of the
agreement, prepared by the plaintiffs'
attorney, were subscribed to by hlin
without his understanding them, It
being his understanding that the agree
ment was nothing more or less than a
guarantee that the stoek would be ns
good in six months as it was at tho
time of the sale.
Tho case of Replogle against Singer
involved the question as to whether or
not a landlord can collect on a lease
for an unexpired term, when the ten
ant moves out because of tho failure
of tho landlord to supply water lot
domestic purposes, in conformity with
an oral agreement made as one of the
conditions of the signing of the lease.
Tho court below decided that the
proof as to what occurred at or prior
lo tho signing of tho lease, upon which
Jhc judgment was entered, was not of
n character to warrant the opening of
the judgment. Tho appellant alleges
iiho court erred in so finding.
D. B, Replogle, the plaintiff, argued
for himself, and C, H. Super for the
nppellant. ,
In the case of Peck and others
against Connell, arguments were made
for the appellants by S. R. Price and
lor the appellee by Ezra II. Connell.
It is a suit to set aside a judgment se
cured by the defendant against II. U.
Veldloman, on tho ground that the de
fendant was Irregularly preferred. Tim
lower court decided against the plain
tiffs. I. II, Burns appeared for the plain
tiff appellants and ex-Judge E. N. AVI1
Inrd for tho defendant In tho case of
Potter and others against tho Scran
ton Railway company.
AVAS STRUCK BY C.Ut.
The plaintiffs sued for damages done
a team and wagon by being struck by
a trolley car. The lower court held
that the driver, the son of tho owner,
was guilty of contributory negligence
and could not recover.
The arguments In tho matter of tho
condemnation of the Fuctoryvlllo and
Milngton turnplko were made by S. It,
Price for tho appellant, and R, II, IIoU
late for the appellee.
The case of Lewlu against tho Paull
estate Mas on at adjourning time and
will bo concluded this morning. Major
Mvorott AA'arren and I. II, Burns ap
pear for tho appellant, and Ralph H.
l,ovy for tho appellee,
Lewlu was a. tenant of tho Paull
building, on Lackawanna avenue, In
gplng to IiIb ofllco at night ho was In
jured, ho alleges, by tripping on n
broken stair and falling to tho bottom
of the (light. The evidence 'of how ho
iwns Injured was all, necessarily, clr
cuniKtunUal, as the original .defendant
Died before the trial came off mid tho
plaintiff, In consequence, could not bo
permitted to testify, Lewln was given
a verdict for personal Injuries, and
tho defense appealed.
It was argued by (tie appellant's at
torneys that tho charge of tho judge
Hid not contuiu an adequate presenta
tion of the defendant's wialm that
bpwiu was guilty of contributory neg
ligence. In that ha Used tho stalrn dally

ARE QUICK TO SEE
Good Doctors Aro Quick to See nnd
Appreciate Renl Merit hi Now
Medicines.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are n dis
covery of gicnt value to the medical
profession uud the public. They are an
unfailing Hpeclflc In all cases of dys
pepsia and dlHordorcd dlucHtlon,
Almost everybody's dlf;e.itlon is dis
ordered more or less, and the common
est thhiR they do for it Is to tahe some
one of the many so-called blood puri
fiers, which In many cases arc merely
stronir cathartics. Such things are not
needed. If the orfrnns are In a clogRed
condition, they need only a little help
and they will right themselves. Cathar
tics Irritate tho sensitive linings of the
stomach and bowels and often do more
harm than good.
Purging Is not what is needed. The
thing to do Is to put tiic food in con
dition to be readily digested and as
similated, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
do this perfectly. They partly digest
what Is eaten and clvo the stomach
just the help It needs. They stimulate
the secretion and excretion of the di
gestive fluids and relieve the congested
condition or the glands and mem
branes. They put. the whole digestive
system in condition to do its work.
AVhen that Is done you need take no
more tablets, unless you eat what does
not agree with you. Then take one or
two tablets give them needed help and
you will have no trouble.
It's a common sense medicine and a
common spnse treatment and It will
cure every time. Not only rare the dis
ease, but cure the cause. Goes about it
In n perfectly sensible and scientific
way.
AVe have testimonials enough to fill a
book, but p don't publish many of
thi'in. However
Mrs. K. JI. Faith, of Hyrd's Creek,
Wis., s.iys: "I have taken all tho Tab
lets I got of you and they have done
their work well In my case, for I feel
like a different person altogether. 1
don't doubt If 1 had not got them I
should have been at rest by this time."
H. 15. Wlllard. Onslow, la., says: "Air.
White, of -Canton, was telling- me of
your Dyspepsia Tablets curing him of
Dyspepsia, from which he had suffered
for eight years. As I am a sufferer
myself I wish you to send me a pack
age by return mail."
Phil Brooks. Detroit, Jilch., says:
"Your dyspepsia cure has worked won
ders in my case. I suffered for years
from dyspepsia, but am now entirely
cured and enjoy life as I never have
before. I gladly recommend them."
It will cost GOc. to find out just how
much Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
help you. Try them that's the best
way lo decide.
AH druggists sell them. A little book
on stomach diseases will be mailed free
by addressing P. A. Stuart Co., Mar
