,o,,r. Notes

Court convened on Tuesday with Judge
Wilkin, of st. Paul, presiding. The I'M
usually large numder of eighty-two cases
were on the calender, but as fifty one were
Big Stone county tax cases, and az de-
cison on one would virtually decide the
whole, over half of the cases noticed for
trial were thus closed out at one scoop,
Havoc was also made among the other
causes, and what with settlements, centin-
uances, etc the calendar was reduced to
mere vsstige of its alarmingly plethoric
proportions.
Owing to the absence of number of
petit jurors, a special venire was issued
aud the panel thus filed. Somehow or
another peopld don't like sitting Oh juries,
and it is getting more so with them each
year, however all efforts to dodge the dis
tasteful duty is unavailing; the law and
the officers are memorable, and so the
average citizen toddles off to court exhib-
iting about as much signs of pleasure as he
would be expected to evince if going to
visit his mother in-law.
Judge Brown arrived Tuesday evening,
and, after the conclusion of the first case
tried, relieved Judge Wilkin.
The grand jury brought in two indict-
ments, one against Timothy Murphy for
grand larceny, and one against Peter
O'Hanlon for mayhem.
The first case called was W. NJ. Camp
bell VS.. John Landberg. This suit occu-
pied the attention of the court during a
part of Tuesday and the whole of yester-
day, and was heard before Judge Wilkin,
Judge Brown having presided at the first
trial he declined to again hear the case
This action is brought to recover the value
of certain goods taken and sold by the
sheriff under attachment. The goods
were the MCGOWAN stock sold to Camp
bell, and McGowan's creditors sliced them
alleging fraudulent sale with the purpose
and intent of delaying and defrauding his,
McGowans, creditors. On the other hand
Campbell alleges that the goods were pur-
chased by him, from MCGOWAN, in good
faith and for valuable consideration

Thomas Paine's Female Medium.

The alleged spirit of Thomas Paine WIS.,
tied the earth the other evening, in Phila-
delphia, and through woman as medium
delivered speech to an audience of sew
eral hundred people. The medium is pic
turesquely described as masculine look
ing woman with closely cropped
head of nair, beautifully besprink-
led with gray, square, deter
mined jaw, and voice that ls between a
falsetto and the bass Of q deep chested
man." Among many other entertaining
facts the audience learned through her that
the "Age of Reason" was written between
the hours Of 10 o'clock in the evening and

was lighted by an unseen power to enable
Paine to do the work. After the lecture
was over tall man. of an inauisitive turn

binary prices from wealthy and fastidious pur-
chasers bear higher prices than the best buffers
of the northwest, and few popular creameries
readily obtain to-day from 2 to cents more than

He spoke in flattering terms of creameries
and dairy interests of Iowa, Illinois and Wis
consin, and predicted q glorious future for the
trade in these important products for the fu

the character of the stock for breeding and
dairy purposes, showing thorough acquaintance
with the subject and giving excellent advice.
He also considered the question Of feed, and
said In conclusion:
Iowa in soil and climate, pure water and
sweet pastures, is almost unequalled in this

Der, passed through Omaha last week, heavily
ironed, en- route from Denver to the house Of
correction at Detroit, being in charge of the
United States marshal of Colorado. In 1877,
unaided and alone, he robbed stage and eight
passengers near Waco, Tex, and got 5000

near Bostrop, Tex, and soon after he robbed
two coaches in one day. The first coach con-
tanned seven men and he got $4,000. The
second coach had six men, from whom he got
only $500. He was arrested and convicted and
sent for life for robbing the mails, but was
pardoned by Hayes, after. serving three years
and eight months. He resumed his old occu-
patton, but was at last arrested for robbng
thirteen passengers and the mail of a coach
