The cause of the death of one of our
stoutest and heartiest looking men,late
ly. was a puzzle to his physicians; and
a careful jiost mortem revealed every
organ in an apparent condition of the
most perfect health. But as he had
complsiued of iutense pain in his stom
ach a more careful examination of its
interior discovered a small tumor.about
the siw and shajs* of a man's little fin
ger near the lower, or peloric. orifice of
the stomach, which, when the half di
gested food would liegin discharging in
to the duodenum, would Is-nd or float
over, enter the orifice and stop it up as
a cork stop" a Isittle, This would be
followed by inflammation and Intense
pain and vomiting, and death was cans
ed by starvation Had the physicians
known the canse of the trouble, a snr

(•rami Opera House I'il f slung
The second of the immense produc
tions that are being made a feature at
the Grand Opera House, Pittsburg, will
be "Blue Jeans" next week, the play
that has a record of 400 nights in New
York, and is withal the most successful
comedy drama produced in years.
The name "Blue Jeans" is sufficiently
well known to make another great week
for the stock company at the Grand,
and with a guarantee that the forth
coning productions of these great suc
cessful plays will be as complete as that
given "The Prisoner of Zend a", there
can l>e no regrets expressed at the loss
of the vaudeville part of the entertain
ment which has been customary at this
popular playhouse.
"Blue Jeans" affords ati exceptional
opportunity for heavy scenery. It is a
rural comedy drama, the first act show
ing the country home. The second act
is the great barbicue scene, and the third
act the saw mill scene, that created a
sensation when the play was first pro
duced.

All the previous decisions of the Su
preme Court are said to have been in
favor of the land owner, but the last
one, in favor of the Forest Oil Co. is
said to reverse all the rest.
Attorney W K. Jennings of Pittsburg
appeared HI Court Monday in behalf of
the Metropolitan Insurance Co. in the
Lei bier case.
A special term of court has been call
ed for February 20.
Among the late decisions of the Su
preme Court, were two in the cases of
Young vs The Forest Oil ('<>. and of
Colgan ys The Forest in which it was
held that the lessee, after entering upon
a lease and producing oil in paying
quantities, could not lie forced by the
lessor to make further developments,
but could use his own best business
judgment as to further operations This
is contrary to the former court decisions
under which if one operator refused to
develop part of a lease fie could be
forced to give that part up. "Paying
quantities" was defined to lie sufficient
production to have any profit, however
small above the operating expenses, re
gardless of money expended in drilling.
! In another decision the court held that
I the operator could use a gas pump or
