to him on March s, this year, and rep.
resented to Mr.. Savage that he had no
equity In the land and wanted q deed
from MI. Savage to quiet the title, his
brother being now the owner Of the
land; that 1t would cost about $15 to
get the courts to quiet the same and
that he, Mr.. Miller, would rather pay
Mr.. Savage the SIS than have it used
up In the courts as fees.
The result of the city election last
week brought about q change Of front
different from which the returns in
dicated. In the canvass made by the
judges Of election Mr.. F. NJ. Gilmore
had a majority Of one over Mr.. John
Coverdale. At the meeting OF the city
council, as a canvassing board, a GER
tificate of election was issued by the
board in accordance with the face of
the returns. Mr.. Coverdale, after the
certificate had been issued, desired to
have the ballots inspected and counted
over. He was accommodated and the
recount revealed a majority Of one for
Mr.. Coverdale, according to the latter's
way OF thinking. On last Friday the
ballots were again opened in the pres
ence of the two candidates and the
count revealed q tie with two ballots
in dispute, which, il counted, would
make no difference in the result. In
consequence Of this Mr.. Gilmore has
refused to qualify, although the certi-
hcate OF election was issued to him.
This places the matter temporarily in
the hands Of the new council, who will
select at the end Of ten days a tempo
rary mayor. A special election to
choose a mayor will then be held.

A NEW SYSTEM.

On July I, an Entire Change or-the
System OF Issuing Money Orders
Will Go into Effect In the Elk Point
Possoffice.
Everybody who sends or receives
money through Uncle Sans mail will
be interested to learn that on the 1st
day of July next a new money order
system will go into effect, by which
both large and small sums can be read
lily transmitted by the letter with alb
solute safety, and at rates much less
than the present. Orders for $3.50 or
less can be had for a fee of only Sc. and
orders for larger amounts up to 800
at rates graduated up to 30c.
With the issuance OF the new money
order the postal note will be abolished,
since there will be no longer need for it.
The form of the new order is both ar
tistic and beautiful and withal OF on
venient size for handling. Its popu-
larity throughout the country is likely
to be great from the very start. Its at
tractive appearance, as well as its
cheapness and availability may be
counted upon to insure that result. 1t
is engraved on steel, and serves as a
good illustration of the tendency re-
Gently observable in Uncle Sam to-
wards Bstheticism in his official
issues of government paper. Con-
trasted with it, the old form now in use
is unsightly and hideous.
The schedule Of fees to be charged
for the new money order has been re-
duced to the basis now charged by
the various express companies for
transmitting money and win be as fol-
lows:

the district court today was occupied
In hearing the case Of the state vs..
James Teller, for obtaining money un-
der false pretenses. Teller Is q farmer
In Union county, South Dakota, and
IL upward Of 60 years old. In May,
1890, he brought into the county clerks
ONCE Of this county fOrty-One scalps,
which he purported were wolf scalps,
making affidavit to the same, and re-
ceiving 90 bounty. Upon investiga-
tion'it was a~scertained that the scalps
were those Of ground squirrels. Tel
Ter was arrested and at each term Of
district court has succeeded In evading
trial heretofore. Judge Norris called
the case up this morning and issued
bench warrants for q number Of wit
nesses. The jury remained out long
enough for one ballot and returned q
verdict OF guilty. The prisoner was
at once lodged In jail with Murderer

Strange Story ola Convict Doing Time
in the Iowa Penitentiary.

Anamosa, Ia, April IA convict now
confined in the Anamosa penitentiary
claims he is the Col. Heath who COM
manded Heaths division of Hills Corps
at the Battle of Gettysburg. He de-
scribes accurately all the maneuver OF
the battle exactly as set forth in the Off
cial records of the war department.
There is scarcely spot six inches square
on his body that mas not a wound. He
claims ali of these were received in the
army. Letters have been written to as
certain the truth of the mans statements
and establish his identity, and. If he is
found to be what he claims, pardon will
be asked for from the President. He is
20 years old, and he and his son are in
prison for three years for stealing cattle.
Judge Parker, of Indian Territory, who
sentenced them, says they carried on cat
tie stealing on large scale, shipping 10
Kansas City. Heath claims a personal
acquaintance with HOke Smith, and says
Hoke's father was in the army with him.
People are inclined to believe his story.
A letter has been written to Secretary
Smith in regard to the old man.
