WOODMEN WIN SUIT

neu from which he died soon after
ward, the acceptance ol the dues In
Ignorance of his Illness doee not con

membership.
A Circuit Court has authority to over
rule a motion for retrial upon condition
that the defendant will remit a speci
fied portion of the amount of the
judgment, and plaintiff cannot com
plain. Records of tho General Land Office
are prima facie evidence, and "to over
come them the evldenco roust be clear
and convincing.
SALEM, Or., June 20. (Special.) The
Supreme Court handed down opinions to
day as follows:
Miller vs. Woodmen.
Sarah C. Miller, respondent, vs. Pacific
Jurisdiction, Woodmen of the World, ap
pellant, from Harney County, M. D.
Clifford, Judge; reversed, and remanded.
Opinion by Chief Justice Moore.
This action was brought to recover $1000
alleged to be duo upon the beneficiary
certificate of F. T. Miller, who was a
member of the lodge at Burns. The de
fense was that Miller died while under
suspension. Tho plaintiff alleged In reply
that the forfeiture of membership had
been waived. Trial was had without a
jury, resulting in findings of fact and con
clusions of law in favor of plaintiff,
whereupon defendant appealed.
The lower court found, among other
things, that assessments were made In
October and November, 183S, payable the
following month, but Miller failed to
pay. He became 111 January 10 and died
January 18, 1899. On January 16 the clerk
of the local camp issued receipts for the
sums due, dating them as of January 5,
and sent the amount to the head camp.
Proof of Miller's death was submitted
April 5, 1899, and the money returned July
21. The clerk of the local camp did not
know that Miller was seriously ill when
ho issued the reclpts, nor did the head
camp know of his illness. In addition to
these findings it was admitted that the
certificate held by Miller should become
void whenever he should be delinquent
and that he could not be reinstated with
out certifying his bodily health, to be
gpod.
The' Supreme Court holds that the-acceptance
and retention of the money. .In
the" absence of. knowledge of Miller's Ill
ness Is not a sufficient basis for the In
ference that the officers of the order
waived the forfeiture.
Adcock vs. O. R. & N.
Elizabeth Adcock, formerly Elizabeth"
Dozier, respondent, vs. Oregon Railway &
Navigation Company, appellant, from
Umatilla County. W. R. L.us. Judge;
affirmed. Opinion by Justice Bean.
The plalntirf was Injured by reason of
a collision of a cook car with another car.
She asked for $3000 damages and the ver
dict was In her favor for $1050. The de
fendant moved for a new trial whereupon
the court ordered that a retrial be
granted unless plaintiff would remit all
but ?S5 of the judgment. The remittitur
was filed and the motion for retrial over
ruled, whereupon tho defendant appealed.
The principal question upon appeal was
whether the lowor court had authority to
overrule tho motion upon condition that a
remittitur be filed. The Supreme Court
says:
"It cannot be disputed that the court Is
within the limits of Its authority when it
sets aside the verdict of the jury and
grants a new trial where tho damages
are palpably or outrageously excessive.
The authority to determine whether the
damages are excessive Implies authority
to determine when they are not of that
character. To indicate, before passing
uion t-c motion for a new trial, its opin
ion that the damages are excessive, and
to require a plaintiff to submit to a new
trial, unless, by remitting a part of the
verdict, ho removes that objection. cer-
talnly does not deprive tho defendant of
any right or give nlm any cause for com
plaint." Eastern Oregon Co. vs. Andrews.
Eastern Oregon Land Company, appel
lant, vs. William H. Andrews, respond
ent, from Sherman County, W. L. Brad
shaw. Judge; reversed. Opinion by Jus
tice Wolverton.
This was a suit In equity Involving the
title to a tract of land In township 1
r.Drth, range 17 east. The plaintiff claims
through The Dalles Military Wagon Road
Company. The defendant claims as a
purchaser from the General Government
under the act of IKK) forfeiting the old
Northern Pacific railroad grant. The de
fendant's contention was that the land In
qu-stlon is outside the limit of the wagon
r:ad grant and therefore that the patent
in in the Secretary of the Interior la
fa or of the wagon road company was
void. The plaintiff, however. Introduced
records of the Land Department showing
that the land was within the limits or the
grant and . the .Supreme Court holds that
this Is prima facie evidence sufficient and
can be overcome only by proofs compe
tent, clear and convincing. The defendant
having failed to overcome this prima
facie evidence, the decree In his favor
was erroneous, and tho case is reversed,
Gentry vs. Pacific Livestock Co.
James Gentry, respondent, vs. Pacific
Lhestock Company, appellant, from Mai
ne jr County. M. D. Clifford, Judge; re-
vcrsoa and new trial orcerea. upiniou oy
Jll;fl Diun
This was an action to recover the value
of hay taken from certain land while the
right to possession was in litigation In
the case of Pacific Livestock Company
vs. Gentry. The lower court held, that the
uecree in tne former case was a con-
CUSlVO ailliirilcRHnn In "Jfntrvs favor.
The SunrmA fnnrt rororsps this and
holds that the former decree was in favor
or neither, for tho suit was dismissed
without determining the issues. The court
holds that where a decree is ambiguous
or falls to show upon -which of several
issues It irae fnilnrliw V,a nnlnlnn re tVin
court may be examined to determine what
pomi was actually decided.

CATARRH
OF KIDNEYS EVERY TIME
At the ap-:
pearance of .
the flrBt;
symptom of
Sidney trou
ble, Peruna
should be
taken. This -C
remedy
strikes at
once the
very root of
the disease t-"
It at once "ss
relieves the
c a t a rrhal
kidneys of
the stagnant
blood, pre
venting the
escape of
eerum from
the blood. Peruna stimulates the kid
neys to excrete from the blood the ac
cumulating poison,, and thus prevents .the
convulsions which are sure to follow If
the poisons are allowed to remain. It
gives great vigor to the heart's action
and digestive system, both of which aro
apt to fail rapidly in this disease.
Peruna cures catarrh of the kidneys
simply because it cures catarrh wher
ever located.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.
Address Dr. Hartman, President of
The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus,
