at the rockingham on Friday and
Saturday evenings and Saturday AFTER
noon under the auspices Of the Green
Ridge wheelmen, by Frohman's conn
pany of comedians, headed by William

Mr.. Norris has achieved a lasting sue

throughout, and a sense OF relief is felt
when the curtain falls upon a general
arrangement in which justice prevails.
Ke(llar, the famous magician, will be
at the Academy of Music on Friday

marvellous, and presents for the first
time in the United States such daring
wonders as THE Shrine of Kooma

does an astonishing cabinet trick very
neatly. But by far the most astound-
ing is the clairvoyant and hypnotic
seance of Mrs. Baldwin. Members of
the audience write questions on slips of
paper, and keep them in their posses
sion, and the lady without the slightest
possible chance of confederacy, re
counts with wonderful precision the
whereabouts of people, how and when
things have been lost or stolen, and
with equal ease she indicates what will

er citizens of eastern Becker county.
whereby the plaintiff sought to en-
join the defendants from cutting
timber on land owned by him, was
settled by the defendants admitting
the injunction and STIMULATING that
judgment might be entered without
cost. This injunction was served
last June, and at the same time an
injunction was served on the Great
Northern Railway company to pre-
vent them paying the settlers for
some $4,000 ties, the Weyerhausers
claiming they were cut on their land.
1t is claimed, however, that such is
not the fact. While there may have
been some stolen timber among
these ties, the majority of them were
cut from lands belonging to settlers.

been done, but also much hardship
