Last week We stated that Senator

George r. Freeman re -eived from
Senator Pettigrew the following letter:
Washington, ID. G., April Y, 1895. George Il.
Freeman. Dear Friend: have Increased the
amount for Elk Point from go 900 to es0.OO0 and
1t WAS made Immediately available. The COM

N. J. Branson, who converted the
farm into hog ranch, and III 1895 he
sold 1t to Harris for x, O0O. The farm has
excellent improvements and is one Of
the best In Prairie township. Mrs.
Woodside maintains that there are
certain Irregularities about sthe admin
istration Of the estate In the sale OF the
land such as TO make them defective.
The case is being fought quite ten
aciously on both sides. Miller h
Miller represent the widow, and Aug
ust Frieberg Of Beresf0rd and l.. b.
French Of Yankton represent Mr.. Har-
ris and the administrator.
The jury returned verdict upon the
rents and profits, the value. ETC., Of the
land-those being the facts submitted
for their decision. They valued the
land without imprO ,ements at %, 200,
with improvements at &6, OUO. The
value OF the rents and profits, with im-
prOvements, from 1889 to 1895 were
plsced at 81 ,4O7, and without improve

TIE NASH cass.

A very interesting time ms had in
the circuit court with Charles Nash, an
Alcester saloonkeeper. over his trial
for contempt OF court. It seems that
the states attorney secured an iniunc-
ton against the Nash saloon in Alces-
ter, but that did not seem to stop him.
He evidently had no fear Of the court
Ia mistake which he no doubt appre-
ciates By this time-f0r he kept on In
his illegal and nefariOus business. He
Was arrested and charged with spe-
officially disobeying the order Of the
court on April u, 1895. When the
case was called Ira 4. Nichols was APP
pointed by the court TO defend the prfs-
oner. After some progress had been
made, the original papers Ia the case
mysteriOusly disappeared. A careful
search was made, and even Nash's
clothing was thoroughly overloaded,
but the papers could not be found. Ia
the stove IN the jail ashes were found
resembling In appearance some Of the
established. Nash had certified copies
Of all the papers, but refused to give
them up until IN order from the court
compelled him 60 to do. After . half
days work the cas0 was resumed, and
the jury brought Ia q verdict OF guilty.
There was but little doubt at any time
40 to the result. Messrs. Keller and
Ericsor teserve credit for the excellent
wos.l reformed Ia the case. While
the defense was ably handled BY Mr..
Nichols, the fact u Nash's guilt was
too evident to avoid = conviction.

Chicago Lady Qasrtette.

It was very pretty and c0mmenda-
BILE entertainment which the Chicago
Lady Quartette gave ct the Lyceum
last evening-an entertainment which
was thoroughly enjoyed by the audi
cree. The spectacle OF four young
ladies Of graceful presence, attirod in
simple, dove-colored gowns, singing
music which everyone could under
stand was novel and refreshing to say
the least. There was something home
like and refining In it. Those present
felt that they were not to be bored by
vocal pyrotechnics. There was an In
formality and heartiness about every
thing they did, which made the pro-
verbal tediousness Of concerts fade out
OF recollection. The program was a
very agreeable one, almost every num-
Der being enthusiastically encOred.
The ladies have excellent voices which
show careful cultivation. True ex-
preston and delicacy Of shading are
particularly marked. - Minneapolis

The Chicago Lady Quartette is COM
posed OF artists. They gave an exquis-
lie concert last evening before u gOOdly
audience. The selecti0ns were varied,
including the simple melodies with the
classical, and the execution was simply
superb. Encore followed encore with

when she first came to the white house,
was Of the doll age, but before she was
here long she grew out of it, and the doll
house was deserted. It has had no occu-
pant since, and it is not likely to have
any for some time
only two children can get in the house
at the same time. There have been a
number Of applicants for the house, but
every one has hesitated to do anything
about il. OF course, Nellie Arthur or any
one authorized by her could get the house
by simply sending for it, for it is her
private property, and though it has been
stored under the east portico, the govern
ment has no control over IL. Nellie Ar
thur has children Of her own now, and
she may send for it. some day for them.

Of doll age, 1t is the most interesting thing
