Judge Harvey, of the prcbate court,
yesterday, assisted by Drs. W. A. Jones
and D. E. Smith, examined John H. Nick

sanity, and he was committed to the hos

Mr. Nk-kell first developed symptoms of
Insanity last July, when he became pos

about to acquire vast wealth in certain
real estate transactions, and at this time
he was taken in charge by his friends
and sent to a private sanitarium. His
condition, however, has continued to
grow worse, and recently he has become
very depressed and melancholy. Among
other things he imagines that he is a very
wicked man—and that he has committed

On account of Its frightful hideousness
Syphilis is commonly called the king of
all venereal diseases. It may be either
hereditary or contracted. Once the sys
tem is tainted with it, the disease may
manifest itself in the form of scrofula,
eczema, rheumatic pains, stiff or swollen
joints, eruptions or copper-colored spots
on face or body, little ulcers in the
mouth or on the tongue,, sore throat,
swollen tonsils, falling out of the hair or
eyebrows, and finally a leprous-like de
cay of the flesh and bone. If you have
any of these or similar symptoms you
aie cordially invited to consult the Min
nesota State Medical Institute immediate
ly. If we find your fears are unfounded
we will quickly unburden your mind, liut
if your constitution is infected with

LIBEL SUIT m TRIAL
FRANK M. SVR'S ACTION AGAINST
WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH
COMPANY
PLAINTIFF TELLS HIS STORY
Vonderltnrgh Telegrnm Canned Him
Great Mental AngniMh, for Which
He Asks Pecnnlnry Solace
From Carrier.
Frank M. Nye's libel suit against the
Western Union Telegraph company to re
cover $50,000 damages because of Ihe Van
derburgh telegrams, charging him with
being bribed to oppose Bryan in the cam
paign of 1896, came to trial yesterday in
the United States district court, before
Judge Lochren. The entire forenoon and
a portion of the afternoon were consume.l
in securing the jury, and another hour
was devoted to arguments for and against
an amendment to the answer.
M. H. Boutelle and F. H. Boardman are
conducting the plaintiff's case, while A.
B. Jackson and C. M. Ferguson are asso- j
ciated in the defense.
Mr. Boutelle was the first witness.
Mr. Jackson—You knew about the part
Mr. Nye played in the campaign of lS'Jti,
didn't you?
Mr. Boutelle—l knew Mr. Nye had some
thing to do with the Silver Republican
party.
Mr. Jackson asked Mr. BouteUe what
effect, if any, the telegram addressed to
him had upon his opinion of Mr. Nye.
"The result of the telegram didn't
change my opinion of Mr. Nye a parti
cle," responded Mr. Boutelle.
"You still retained the same high opin
ion of him?"
"Yes, sir."
After a few more unimportant questions
Mr. Boutelle stepped down and the p'alnt
iff himself was sworn to testify to the
whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Mr. Nye, in response to his counsel's
questions, said he had practiced law In
Minneapolis for fourteen years, had serv
ed as assistant county attorney for two
years, and as county attorney four years.
When Attorney Boardman asked Mr.
Nye what effect the receipt of tha tele
gram had upon him, counsel for the de
fense interposed a vigorous objection to
the witness being permitted to testify as
to his mental feelings, but after nearL/
half an hour's argument the court al
lowed the question, and Mr. Nye an
swered:
"I was pained, disturbed, and very
much incensed over the matter, and so
expressed myself. It worried me a great
deal."
J. P. Cassldy, the local manager of the
Western Union office, was called by th±
plaintiff to testify concerning the rules
regulating the receipt and delivery of tel
egrams.
At this point court adjourned until 10
a. m. today.
The jurors are:
P. W. Jesperson, Horn Lake; H. W.
Bluhm, Vivian; Bradtey Walker, St.
Paul; J. C. Montgomery, Cleveland; Dan
iel Kennedy, Biscay; G. C. Scherfenberer,
St. Cloud; E. J. Thoele,'South St. Paul;

BANK'S SIDNEY IS 001
ELEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS
MISSING WHEN VAULT WAS
OPENED BY OFFICIALS
BELIEVED ROBBERS GOT IT
Building Burned Laat Friday Night,
and Official* Knew Money Was
in Ynult at Clone of
HURON, S. D., March 12.—(Special.)—A
sensation of large proportions followed
the opening of the big vault of the Hitch
cock bank today. The bank and builo
ing were destroyed by fire last Fri
day night and no alarm was felt by the
bank officers on account of their knowl
edge that the fire and burglar-proof vault
contained over $11,000 at the close oi
business on Friday.
The big vault was opened today In the
presence of the officials of the institution
and the money was not there, although
other articles were preserved intact.
Cashier Wilson wired for money at
once and the depositors will be "" paid
without difficulty. What puzzles the
bank officials is the loss of the $lI,OCO.
The only explanation offered is that the
money was taken from the vault before
the fire, which was supposed to have
been caused by a defective flue.
Now the belief is that the bank was
looted by clever robbers/who set fire to
the place in order to cover up their
tracks. The bank'"officials declared to
day that the fullest possible investiga
tion would be had for the purpose oi
learning what become of the money. It
is not unlikely the disclosures will be fol
lowed by others of'a more sensational
character. ••
So far as has been learned no sus
picious characters were seen in the vicin
ity of the bank during the few hours of
the night preceding the time the lire
was discovered, but a'careful investiga
tion is already in progress.

talked the matter over with my friends

Some said the Minnesota State Medical

they cure all of those patients they
have?' Another said I was too old to get
cured. However. 1 went to see the spe
