# VERDICT IS RENDERED ON DOLLAR AND COSTS
## Former Partners Go to Law to Bring About Financial Settlement.
The case of William Lodlum against Pat Sullivan went to trial in Judge Lynch's court Monday before a Jury. Lodlum asked for $300, representing the difference between the salaries for the months of September, October and November of 1921. Sullivan put in a counterclaim for $300, the difference between the $200 loan by Lodlum and the $300 which Sullivan had paid the latter and on which payment was stopped. The check was signed by H. H. Martin.
Testimony disclosed that there had been a drug store and restaurant firm between the plaintiff and the defendant. They were at Sweetgrass in the upper part of the state in 1921. It was in evidence that Lodlum told a pal of Sullivan's that he had been given the right to the back end of the Atlantic bar. At the time the place was running it with a man named Fluor and another man named Jim Sullivan. He, Lodlum, wanted to set that put into the business, for which he was to receive 12½ per cent interest.
Later on in November, as Lodlum claimed, he got Sullivan a check for $200 with which to buy a wedding ring, not having enough of his own, and they went to Oregon. Then they decided to buy in on the Bungalow. For that purpose it was claimed, Lodlum had put into Sullivan's business $200. He said he pawned his wife's ring for $50 and they bought in on the Bungalow. Thirty days later Lodlum sold his interest to a man named Jimmy Donaghue and the money was divided.
In June last, Lodlum wrote Sullivan, asking him to pay his salary and to give him a note for it, as he wanted to go away and forget everything. As Sullivan did not pay, Lodlum, so as to giving a note, he wanted to know why he did not get his salary on any deal he said he had lost more than $1,000 while Lodlum had made the $300.
In the instructions to the Jury, the Judge stated the old business of the Atlantic eliminated from the amount claimed, as it had not been in the business.
The Jury brought in a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $1 and court costs.
W. H. Malony represented Lodlum and Harry Mayor appeared for Sullivan.

*Marriage by Judiciary Getting to Be Popular*
Getting married by a judge or a justice of the peace is getting to be quite the thing in Butte. Justice James France seems to be taking the lead as a legal knot-tier just now. Yesterday he officiated at two matrimonial ceremonies, both held at the court house. The contracting parties were John E. Doyle and Elizabeth Veeder, and Frank Warren and Lore[illegible]. All the parties hailed from Anaconda.

*Why Is It?*
WHY is there more argument about coffee than any other item of diet. Coffee has always needed defense—one of the few articles of diet that does.
No doubt exists about the fact that coffee contains caffeine, a drug which doctors prescribe as an emergency stimulant for the heart and nervous system; and many coffee drinkers know from experience that for them, coffee causes nervousness, headache or stomach trouble.
Since so many people, including health authorities, have reason to question coffee drinking, can you afford to risk your health with it—when you can have a safe mealtime drink, such as Postum?
You will like the delicious flavor of Postum. It fills every requirement of a hot drink; and many former coffee drinkers even *prefer it* to the best coffee.
As your mealtime beverage, a system free of caffeine, and your sleep sound and restful, you'll realize that Postum has established its genuine value in health and comfort.
**Postum**
**for Health**
*"There's a Reason"*
Your grocer sells Postum in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water; and Postum Cereal (in packages) for those who prefer the flavor brought out by boiling for 20 minutes. The cost of either form is about one-half cent a cup.

## Five Cases Reported to Police; Woman Too Alert For Purse Snatcher.
St. Patrick's night was rather a quiet night for dancing and revelry, as but five cases were reported yesterday morning. At the Billings cigar store, near the corner of Broadway and Main streets, thieves rifled the till. John Brenning, who occupies the rooms at 70 East Park, reported that his room had been entered during the night and he lost clothes and some cash, amounting to $25. Hi. Norrins was found with the transom of the room—presumably the thief had entered in this manner—and the man could secure any loot. Dr. Hughe Dick, County Physician, reported that his car, parked in front of his residence on Club row, was stripped of a number of accessories. The car and garage of John Berryman, 424 South Montana street, was entered and tools and accessories amounting to more than $35 were secured.
Full Reports are told by Chief of Police Murphy on the charges of all robberies thoroughly investigated.

The campaign being conducted past week by Dr. Louis Allard for the Crippled Children's association, with a close yesterday after Dr. Allard had reported treating between 19 cases and operating on 10 children during this year. The executive board of the Auxiliary of the Butte Association for Crippled Children was unusually gratified with a well known accomplishment of the present clinic of the well-known orthopedic physician.
The auxiliary will now turn its attention towards a campaign for the raising of funds, as many donations among the crippled children will not be lost. This week a collection for the friends of the crippled is called for 3 o'clock this afternoon in chamber of commerce. Following this a city-wide campaign will be discussed.
The association is working hard to do the necessary work, and even a larger amount than was needed it if to increase its scope of activities. This amounts to about two dollars and thirty cents daily for each patient at Pittbrand, and keep the four patients now at Billings in the home. All of the cases are adjudged cured.
There are a number of other little patients in Butte who should be sent to the orthopedic clinic at Warm Springs soon. As donations of funds are forthcoming they will be given the same attention which has been accorded others. The campaign for crippled children began yesterday from the Butte aerie of Eagles voted $10.

*Two Men Wield Axe*
*In Sanguinary Duel*
*Stopped by Officers*
An axe fight, in which the deadly weapons were used alternately by both men, caused considerable excitement and brought out a number of officers in the 400 block of Colorado street, early Tuesday morning. The timely arrival of the officers probably prevented a serious affair.
Both men had been badly slashed about the head and "Frenchy" the principal, had multiple bruises slashed about the body. It is not known if either man was taken to the hospital.
Neither Willard or Jean would make any complaint. There were a number of women who witnessed part of the fight.
The same afternoon both men were taken to the police station. From the information at the station the axe was taken up and the station was called for.
For use in connection with phonograph or radio music for dancing a sound distributing system was available for theatres, it has been mounted on a cabinet with amplified tubes.
