notice of such contract and given while
the fee owner was in possession.
The second case came up from Penn
bina county, and is entitled George H.
Fuller VS.. Northern Pacific Elevator
company. This was an action for an al
legged balance due the plaintiff for wages
as an elevator agent, the plaintiff claim
ing he was hired for a year at a certain
sum per month and the company resist
ing and claiming the contract was for no
time certain. The defendant claims that
at a certain time the plaintiff was dis
charged. The jury returned a verdict
for the plaintiff and the district court al
lowed it to stand on the ground that
where there is a conflict of evidence the
findings of a jury will not be disturbed
by the courts. The opinion of the court,
by Judge Bartholomew, reverses the
Judgment and orders it back for a new
trial. The following is the syllabus:
The conflict in the evidence that pro-
hlblts a court from interfering with the
VeTulcI VI Il jury on d queStlOn or fact
should be a substantial and not an illu-
sorry conflict.
Whenever an appellate court consci-
entiously and irresistibly reaches the
conclusion that a verdict is against the
truth and the undoubted weight of the
submitted evidence, and could only have
been reached by the failure on the part
of the jury to exercise an unbiased and
unprejudiced Judgment, such court
should unhesitatingly reverse the order
of the trial court refusing to vacate
such verdict.

City Council.

The city council met in regular session
last evening, with all members present.
This being the first meeting after the
third quarter, the reports of city officers
we're read and on motion approved. The
council contracted with John P. Hoag-
land for building a sidewalk on Seventh
street near the mill. Considerable dis
cussion was provoked on the question of
enclosing the bell tower, in which to dry
the hose.
On motion of Mr.. Healy the chairman
of the committee of public buildings was
Instructed to advertise for bids to build
the same.
A motion was passed to improve the

tax thereon, and if this is not done to

In the Supreme Court.

Two more cases we're decided Tues
day by the supreme court and the
opinions filed with the clerk. One WAS
entitled Second National Bank of Grand
Forks vs.. James X. Swan, sheriff. This
action was brought to recover the value
Of some wheat which the plaintiff
claimed under a chattel mortgage exe-
cuted by the owner of a piece of land
in hat county. On the land was a real
estate mortgage which had been FORE
closed. In order to save the farm from
passing by sheriff's deed a capitalist of
the county took an assignment of the
sheriff's certificate and agreed to deed
to the mortgagor after the payment of
certain agreed sums. AS security for the
performance of the transaction the then
owner agreed that all title to crops to be
raised should be in the holder of the
sheriff. certificate. The agreement was
in writing, but not recorded or filed.
The trial court held that the agreement
was in fact a chattel mortgage, but as it
was not on record it was a junior in
cumbrance to the mortgage of the bank.
This view is sustained by the supreme
court. The opinion is by Judge Barthol-
omew and the following syllabus is
filed:
The holder of a certificate of sale of
land upon foreclosure has no interest by
virtue of such certificate in the crop
raised and harvested on the land during
the year of redemption.
A contract by the fee owner purport-
ing to convey such crop to the certificate
holder either as security or absolutely,
cannot prevail against a prior mortgage
by the fee owner Of such crop or against
9 subsequent mortgage taken without

Court ut

Extracts from the Pioneer: Geo.
Lewis. who shot a man named Palmer
some two years ago in the Mandan
yards, was dismissed on motion of his
attorney, Judge Francis of Bismarck.
j. w. Kefford was arranged for forg-
cry. He had nc attorney, and informed
the court that he did not wish for any.
He pleaded guilty to the offense and was
sentenced to the penitentiary for two
years.
Before sentence was passed upon him
he said in answer to the questions put
the court that he was Is years of age;
born at Cambridge, Mass, and educated
there; his parents are dead; he is an
electrician by profession, worked at
Brainerd and West Superior; started
out on the Northern Pacific west of
Fargo selling bicycles and canvassing
for life insurance.; vas injured at Man
dan when alighting from the train and
was suffering a good deal mentally when
he committed the forgery; went from
Mandan west and was taken from the
side of the track by John Knapka, in
whose house he remained in a very sick
condition for several days; left for New
Salem on recovery.
Judge Winchester in passing the SEN
tence, remarked that the prisoner was
we'll educated and his offense was all the
greater on that account. He hoped that
his experience in the %penitentiary would
teach him a lesson that he would never
forget.
George Randall was arranged for
horse stealing. He desired to consult
with an attorney in the case, and so he
consulted with Mr.. Rice. He then
pleaded guilty to the offense charged
and was sentenced to the %penitentiary
for one year. In reply to the questions
put, he stated that his mother lives in
Washington.
There were a few civil cases which
were dismissed or taken under advise
ment.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.
Baking Powder Eill Passed by the Min
nesOta Senate.

Baking Powder Bill Passed by the Min
nesota Senate.
The recent newspaper discussion of
the dangerous qualities of ammonia
comes from the alarming increase of it's
use in baking powders. People who alb
sorb it in small quantities from day to
day suffer from slow ammonia poison
ing. Taken internally in sufficient guam
titles it eats away the coatings of the
stomach and intestines and causes death.
Slow ammonia poisoning produces vari-
GUS forms of stomach trouble.
Not II woman in ten Thousand would
use ammonia baking powder if she knew
it. Such powders not only undermine
the health, but ammonia imparts a sal
low and blotched complexion.
Following is the bill recently passed
by the Minnesota senate. It's the dan
ger signal which the law throws out for
the protection of the people.
A Bill for an Act to Regulate the Traffic
i'll Baking Powder.

than ten nor more than twenty days or by

ton OF the court.

Why DR.. Prices Baking Powder is
Superior to all others.

No great efforts are made by other manufacturers
to procure and use pure materials.
1t is true that one other company has the facilities,
but its greed and cupidity induced it in an evil hour to use
ammonia, in order to swell its profits. Hence the Price
Baking Powder Company stands alone in it's fight for a pure
baking powder.

Sitting Bulls { abin.

Mandan Pioneer: On Monday morn
ing, with Chris Nordstrom in charge,
Sitting Bulls villa came to town, on it's
way to the Chicago exposition. Messrs.
Thorberg.and P. B. Wickham, who are
very much interested in this valuable
Indian relic, were tickled to see it come
along the street for there is many a slip
'twixt the cup and the lip, and in their
efforts to obtain possession of this cabin,
they have been threatened on all hands
with failure. To them is due the ORR
ginal idea that it would be a drawing
card at the Chicago Fair in 1893, and
there is no doubt whatever that they
will prove right in their calculations.
Sitting Bull exists in the mind of the
average easterner as the embodiment of
all that was treacherous, crafty and de-
ceitful in the Indian character. He was
a bloodthirsty william, the last and big
gest william that the Sioux nation pro-
duced. With his taking off went the
fear Of all those who dreaded Indian up
risings. The cabin duilt under his di-
rection which he made his residence and
near which he died, will draw a great deal
of attention.
The cabin came to town knocked
down. 1t had been taken apart very
carefully, every piece being numbered,
and il will he Dossjble tn recOnstruct r.
exactly as it was at the time of the death
of the Sioux chief. There are all around
it marks Of the last struggles OF Sitting
Bull. The floors are marked with blood
the result of the fighting that went on
inside. The logs that compose it's sides
are pierced with bullets from rifles and
pistols. The cabin will be erected near
the depot at Mandan, and when the pro-
per time comes, it will be taken down
and shipped to Chicago.
