JOHN HILBBRT ALLEGED CON
SPIRACY AND FRAUD.
AGAINST ONE OF HIS NEIGHBORS
Charging That She Had Hia Life
Insurod Without His Consent
or Authority Ths Agent
Paid the Piper.
HE ctHO of John Hil
tHti fg. i. t Mrs.
Seltzer was settled
yesterday afternoon.
Air. Hilborl's story
was that in 1689 Mrs
Seltzer procured an
fif insurance policy on
his life without hie
knowledge or consent. Hilbert did not
know nf the policy, he says, until rocontly,
when it leaked out in a quarrel. Ililbort
then consulted bis lawyer, M. M. Burke.
Esq., and suit was brought against Mrs.
Seltzr and Insurance Agent Ileckman for
fraud and conspiracy. Mrs. Seltzer set up
a defense to the effrct that Mrs. Ililbort
consented to the insutanoe in order to
secure a grocery bill. Heckman, the
agent, claimed that he oalled upon Mr
Illlbert and had him make hia mark on
the application (or insurance. Tail 11 i I
bert denied and Mrs. Ililbort denied the
claim made by Mrs. Seltzer. All parlies
met in Mr. Burke's office yesterday and
agreed to settle. Mrs. Seltzer surrendered
the insurance policy and the agent gave
Mr. Hilbert ten dollarsand agreed to pay
the costs and counsel fees.

Kruption nf the Shin Cured.
Ed. Yonney, Brockville, Ontario, Can
ada, says: "I have used hrandreth's Pills
for the past fifteen years, and think them
the bost cathartic and anti-bilious remedy
known. For some Ave years I suffered
with an eruption of the tkin that gave me
great pain and annoyance. I tried dif
ferent blood remedies, but, abhough gain
ing strength, the itching was unrelieved.
I finally conoluded to take a thorouifb
course of Brsndrtth's Pills. I took six
each night for four nights, then five, four,
three two, lessening each time by one, and
tbeu for one mouth took one every nigbt,
with the happy result that now my skin Is
perfectly clear and has bton so ever since."
Thanks to tho Police.
Editor Umbald. Allow me, in behalf
of the rtsidonts of East Oak street, includ
ing myself, to extend thanks to Chief of
Police Davis and his assistants or their
promptness in squelching the hoodlum
element in the vicinity of the theatre. On
evenings when shows have been In the
theatre the hoodlums have taken possession
of the street am! made themselves Intoler
able, but last night the services of the
police had an etf.et which the residents cf
the vicinity feel bound to reeognis.

a Working Committee.
EMBERS of Watkln
Waters Post No. 110,
G. A. H , are now en
listed for active work
In connection with the
n ip ' in' miment
fund and a committee
has been appointed to
look after the Post's interest.
Many people have been witbbo'ding
their pledges of support to see what the
Post would do and now that the organiza
tion has acted and put itself on record it is
hoped that the oitiasne and other town
societies will roll up their sleeves and go
into the work with a will.
At its meeting last night the Poet pledged
itself for 100 and appointed the following
committno to act In conjunction with oom
mitteos that will be solected from tho other
societies and the citiaens: David Morgan,
S. A. Beddall, William Maloy, Joseph
Daddow and H. C. Boyer.
It is not the intention of tho Post to
assume all responsibility for the project, or
to monopolize credit for what may be ac
iWraoUshcd.. .It-has simply darted what It
hopes to make a popular movement, some
thing to which it hopoj all the poople and
all the societies of town will lend their aid
and hfclp make a brillUnt success,
Now that tho start has been made let all
bands move towards an official organiza
tion. The committee appointed by the Post
will meet on Monday evening, next, at
7:30 o'clock, inS. A. Beddsll's office, to
prejare plans. It is proposed to have every
society In tho town represented on the
comm ttee, ns well as representative to be
appointed by tho citizens. A meeting of
the general committee will be oalled in a
few days.
Tho membsrs of the Post were very
enthusiastic over the project. The members
condemned the Republican's suggestion in
regard to the project in unmistakable
terms.

Who It Wits Stopped,
People are wondering what the big red
patch on the east side of the White street
school building means. It is easily ex
plained At its last meeting the School
Board decided to have the building pointed
and painted. A committee advertised fur
proposals for the work and P. J. Cardan
understood that ho was the euooi-wlul
biddir. The painter oomwenced work
this week, but was stopped, as tome mem
bers of U'O board have raited the point
that tho bids should first go Wore the
School Board.
