and particularly as q musician. The
Item 10 taken from the last issue Of the
YanktOn Telegram: Last Saturday
evening Miss TalctOt, OF the conserva-

to say that she was repeatedly encored,
thing which has seldom occurred with
other performers"
Mrs. 8. 8. Adams, who owns q large
body OF land In Big Sioux township,
has begun action against . large num.

on the land and are now engaged In
plowing, cutting timber and building
shantlee. Judge smith has granted an
injunction against the squatters and
some Of them have refused to recognize

moro respect for an order OF the court
hereafter.
