this shanty. After remaining in 1t
day he concluded it oHld be better to
build one of his own, 40 he started to
do so. Before he had it finished Mr..
Edwards sued out writ of injunction.
Taking advantage ola flaw in the writ,
Mr.. Adams disregarded it and finished
his shanty. Last Wednesday, as above
stated, Mr.. Edwards brought suit
against him for criminal trespass. The
case was continued until tomorrow
morning ut nine O'Clock. We under
stand that this Mr.. Adams is new
conner, and that he was Influenced by
others to take the step he did. If this
be true, while it excused him some
what, it only makes more severe the
condemnation that ought to follow
those who instigated him. Tie case
has not yet been tried, however, and
we will withhold further comment UNI

Another Outrage.

1t seems that the settlers" Ton other
peoples landsl in the eastern part of
the county, cannot be content with
their attempt TO hold land about which
there may be some little question of
title, but are determined to 'jump"
vacant land wherever found. Hither-
to they have confined themselves to
what is known as the indemnity strip,
but on Wednesday suit was brought
in Judge Christy's court, for criminal
trespass against man who had at
tempted to jump quarter section of
land owned by j. W. Edwards, Within
the ten mile limit. AS stated TO Us the
facts are as follows: Mr.. J. w. Ed
wards, together with his mother and
two brothers-in-law, owns and controls
all of section 81. About three weeks
ago they found shanty built on the
northeast quarter of the section which
was raw land and not fenced. Mr.. Ed
wards tore the shanty down, built a
wire fence around the premises and
built a shanty Of his own. A few days
later a Mr.. Adams droye oTer the fence

A FEW MORE WORDS ABOUT
HEDGES.
OSAGE Tp FER. Is. 1884

Usage TP, FEB. Is, 1884.
Well, good morning editors and
readers of the lola REGISTER, here i
am again and still boring with my
hedge machine You recOllect that in
my last 1 quit after finishing my
hedge as to the raising, treatmen and
finishing Off by looping and conclud-
ing it perfect fence.
Well, now l want to say a few
ords i'm favor of hedges generally. lst
A hedge is the most ornamental fence
that can be made. I'd. 1t is the most
lasting and permanent fence i know
of. Sd. In point of health its sanitary
value can not be ascertained; always
green from early spring I'LL
the last thing in the tall.
4th. Its conducivness to rain; yes,
hedges, orchards and groves, and the
more the better for all prairie countries,
to bring holsters and rains often. 5th.
1t makes harbOrs for great many
kinds of birds which are the farmers
best friends; the more birds we can in
duce to stop with us, the less insects
will bother our crops.
All the above facts are certainly
largely i'm favor of hedge fences. /
haven't dweit much OH these impOr-
tant facts but have only barely NELL
toned them in brief manner. Now,
I would like any one who may read
this article to stop and think on each
one of the four or five different facts
that are stated above and then reply
to them.
During the past fall I travelled over
Kansas considerably. 1 made four
trips as far west as the VerdigEis river.
going and coming each time different
routes. And often thought how in,
different and lazy farmers are, not OH
ly in the way they treat their hedges
but also their farms and appurtenances
in all respects. / am not surprised at
any time to hear man curse u hedge
fence; but when.the truth Of the mat
ter comes out thu hedge fence should
curse its owner for his laziness and
carelessnes. Just let a man stop
washing his face and hands and pat
ting OH clean clothing and combing his
pate for six to twelve months, what
kind Of a looking man would he be? j
think no would discount in bad APP
pearance any neglected hedge in Al
len county. l have been watching
and studying the hedge question for
many Yeas and have given you my
views i'm brief form. Now, if any
brother farsaer has better plan or
theory will be happy if he will write
il up. for | am anxious to learn all 1
can OH this most important fence ques-
ton. This article lets me out on the
subject of hedges and 1 will close by
saying that / hope some pencil will
start in where quit and give US more
light On the hedge. Most respectfully.
JOHN J. Close.

WORTHY OF CONFIDENCE.

Many of the testimonials received by
DR.. Otterbourg, of the Kansas City
Medical Dispensary read like miracles,
so marvellous have been many of the
cures he has effected. The more diff
cult the case the better he is please to
undertake it, if he sees chance of a
cure being effected, and he brings to
the realization of this possibility a very
rare medical skill and experience. If
the case is hopeless. when consultation
with him is had, he does 10, deceive
the patient, as so many physicians do.
The DIR. establishes himself immedi-
ately in the confidence of his patients,
as all who have been treated by him
can testify. No physician in the west
has such an extensive practice as be
has, and he has obtained it by his very
rare medical knowledge and fair and
upright dealings with all his patients.

CHRONIC COMPLAINTS REQUIRE
TIME FOR A CURE.

Specific remedies for all diseases is
the theory and practice at present of
educated and experienced physicians,
and i'm all large cOmmuaities they
have their specialties, to excel in
which they direct their studies and
practice. DIR. Otterbourg is success
,ful illustration of this modern school of
specialties, and his unprecedented sue
cess i'm the treatment of private, nerv-
Ons and chronic diseases is as won
derfuI as it is flattering. Those per-
sons who need medical relief for the
most delicate of diseases will find an
accomplished and successful physi-
clan i'm the person of DR.. OtterbOurg,
who is highly recommended by the
medical profession at home and abroad.

THE wILBERFoRcE CONCERT.

The performance given by the Will
berforce Concert Company last Tues
day evening was one of the best enter
tainments of it's kind that lola has
been favored with for some time. 1t
was well appreciated too by the fair
audience that had assembled, more
than half the numbers being encored
In their chorns singing, the distinct
ness with which their words were
spoken and the wonderful harmony of
their voices, particularly on the plan
issiDiO passages, produced very fine
effect The solos were all we'll rem
dered and showed, not only good nat
ural voices, but great deal of train
lug. The elocutiOnist gave several Sc
lections which showed considerable
ability and quite remarkable strength
and sweetness of voice. In short the
entire performance was greatly above
the average, and the company will
have no trouble in securing a full
house on their next visit.
