A Writ Of restitution was placed in
the hands Ofthe Sheriff yesterday com
manding him to place l.. l.. NorthruI
in possession of the northeast quarter
of 2, "a, 16, claimed by C.. N. and J. E
Salyer. Finding the leaguers away
from home, the sheriff removed theil
household goods to the house of 9
neighbor and tore down and hauled
away their shanty. 1t begins ut last
to look as though writ from the court
of the Seventh Judicial District was
worth something.
DR.. o. +. Fitch has the finest tele.
}sc0pe on our streets this week that has
ever been exhibited here. 1t is a splen.
did instrument revealing with great
distinctness the wonderful inequalities
of the moons surface, charging Jupit-
er to the size Of a dinner plate and
showing his cloud belts and his four
moons, and clearly distinguishing the
brilliant rings about Saturn. The
views obtained through it are fully
worth the ''price of admission" and the
instrument is being well patronized.
With gas rushing out of the ground
at LaCygne, with gas issuing from q
well in Usage township, with gas ris.
ing from Capt. M0Ore's well seven mil.
es west Of town, with gas in another
well at Piqua and with the hundreds
of cubic feet of gas escaping daily from
the Acers' well it is almost absolutely
certain that well sunk anywhere in
this neighborhood would be successful
in finding practically inexhaustible
supply. 1t seems like almost criminal
negligence, in the face ofthis certainty
for us to let the enterprise lag.
We publish this week q communica-
ton from Prof. Hamm, of the Hum
bOldt schools, calling upon the teach
ers Of the county to make their ar
fragments to attend the meeting of
the National Association at Topeka in
July. The REGISTER heartily seconds
this request and hopes that every
teacher in Allen county will give it an
affirmative response. The National
Association is the biggest of all the big
things that has vet struck Kansas. and
no consideration short of absolute inn
possibility should prevent its being at
tended by every teacher in the State.
= Some time ago Lacquer built
shanty on quarter section of raw land
owned by Ed. Kavanaugh and moved
into it. Mr.. Kavanaugh wanted the
land himself this spring so when the
Lacquer was away from home one day
last week he went and set his goods
into the road and tore down the shanty
and hauled it to his house. The leag.
ure came to him for an explanation
and Kavanaugh told him he had only
done what he would keep on doing as
long as 1t was necessary, and that end
ed the matter. Such q procedure Is
just as legal and a good deal shorter
than q suit In ejectment. n
