There are now FIVE schools running

Miss Mamie Weeks, of Badger No. 4;
Miss Lizzie Wallace, of Mitchell No. q;
Miss Carrie Gardner, of Lisbon No. g.;
Miss Bertha Smith, of Tobin No. 4 !;
Mr.. o. q. Browne, of Baker No. 5.
Mr.. Browne is to be married on the
Goth inst, and has rented Frank Kee-
ler's farm to start house keeping on.
AS he will be five miles from his school
and still has two months to teach, he
will be somewhat embarrassed in
spending his honeymoon, but O. E. is a
strong minded fellow, however, and a
good engineer, and he will get over the
difficulties.
Frank Keeler has gone to Illinois,
and it is rumored that he will return

bar during the evening. The witness
was then turned over to the defense

ana MT. Dillon subjected him to a rig
id cross-examination. In answer to
inquiries, witness said he had been in
Aberdeen for the past year. doing bus
mess as detective; could not remem-
Der the names of parties for whom he
did business; one was dentist;witness
had formerly lived in Mortified, MINI:
was four years railroad detective on
the Canadian Pacific; was on the rolls
as road-master.
Witness then told how he came to be
employed by Mentzer to come here and
ecure evidence of the violation of the
ordinances against liquor selling and
gambling. He was to receive So to Sc
a day and expences, according to work
done.
Dillon asked him if he had not
told Banks in Gilbert's barber shop
that he was from Philadelphia, that
this was hard town, and that he car
ried two reyolvers.
Witness said he never told anybody
he was from Philadelphia; might have
said something about revolvers, didn't
remember; had asked if there wasn't
gambling here; had invited Banks and
others to drink with him occasionally;
the night of the 18th he had made a
minute of what took place in the sa-
loon; went outside to do it.
This cross examination lasted until
1890, and the questions of Mr.. Dillon
were directed toward showing that wit
ness came here as a paid detective to
make complaints and secure evidence
against citizens, and he showed no mer-
cy in his handling of Connors, who
showed stolid indifference to the i'm
piled meaning of the attorneys inter-
rogations.
A recess was taken until 2 o'clock.
AT the afternoon session of court
Messrs. Crane, Corbin, Mark, "Scotty''
and one or two others were put on the
stand to testify with reference to the
sale Of beer Oh the night in question,
and although several were not exactly
sure of what they had drank or seen
handed out, some of them thought
probably it was beer. Corbin's testi-
mony was ruled out, as he swore to
taking whiskey, and the defendants
are not charged with selling whiskey in
this complaint.
The defense offered no testimony,
and the arguments began.
Attorney Hitchcock then opened for
the prosecution, claiming that the
case had been fully made out, and was
followed by attorney Dillon, who di-
rected his argument to the proposition
that the local option law had repealed
the license provision in the charter,
and that consequently the city, having
no power to grant a license, has no
power under the present city ordinance
to punish for selling without one.
MIR. Hitchcock had the closing argu-
ment and cited authorities to sustain
the. ordinance and refute the PROPOSE
tion of the defense.
The case went to the jury about s
o'clock and verdict of guilty was
brought in about $50.

A Great Battle

Is continually going on i'll the human system.
The demon Of impure blood strives to gain
victory over the constitution, to ruin health,
to drag victims to the grave. A good reliable
medicine like Hoods Sarsaparilla is the
weapon with which to defend ones self, drive
the desperate enemy from the field, and re-
store peace and bodily health for many years.
Try this peculiar medicine.
