COMPLICATED SUITS.
JieUloiM Keinlm.l In the Toole-McN'H-
limm Htlltfc.
Sovcial years ago Patrick .Mc.Namnra, a
nsident of this town, secured life insuranco
policies on the life of his giandinothcr, Mrs.
Catherine Igo. In some tiansactlous John J.
Toole became a purchaser of one of the poll
cie.i, kept tho premiums paid up, and upon
tho death of Mrs. Igo recovered $2,700 on it.
Subsequently McNamara was advised that
Toolo was not entitled to tho money, as ho
was not a party in interest to tho Kllcy. Mc
Namara was appointed administrator of Mrs.
Igo's vstatoaud ho brought suit agaiiistToolc
recovering judgment for $t! 700. This was last
March and since that time McNsuiura has
been trying to get hold of soino pro city be
longing to Toolo to satisfy the judgment.
As a result of these dibits several attach
incuts against property eupposed to belong to
Toole weie made and they led to suits aguinst
Mc'lamara by John Toole, Alice and 11. M. A.
Toolo on feigned Issues to dctorniino tho tltlo
to tho properties levied upon. Two of tho
suits MeNiuuura lost, but tho suit of II. M. A,
Toolo against him lie won.
Among tho attachments issued by Mo
Namara was onu against a horso supposed to
belong to Toolo, but which it was claimed
wn.1 sold last August to Joseph II. Kichtcr, of
rottsvitlc. The latter brought suit against
McNaunira on a feigned issue and upon trial
before Judge Ilechtel at I'ottsvillo, yesterday,
it was decided that the horso belonged to
Nichtor and tho attachment could not stand.

The Story of tho Work.
A lover of pictures, a man of means,
making a tour of the art galleries of the
world, realized that tho luxury of seeing
all these beauties was limited to tbo very
wealthy, and to them only by wearisome
and expensive traveling and time. "Why
not in tbo present ago of perfect photogra
phlo reproduction, why not reproduce
tho most beautiful, this most popular, tho
most noted of theso art trenmres?" was
tho question ho asked hiniiclf. Why
not indeed; no sooner thought of than
lio applied his means and presligo to
secure largo photographs of tho choice
pictures.
Ths result is "JlASTniii'iJXF.s fhom
this At Gai.lemes of tjik Would."
Tbo original idua was to Ikmio tho book
in parts just as Is now being done; but to
charge $2.50 a part or 8100 00 in all.
Now, a syndicate of newspaper pub
lishers bus purchased tho photographs
and plates and is issuing them to "Boom.
Circulation."
Now, every one may havo this magni
ficent work w bioh was originally inteudeel
for tho rioh man's palace.
Such Is tbo ioico of nineteenth century
invention, machinery, entorprise, anil
desire for oiretilalton.
Tho Way To Get It.
