Want q Compromise.

+. NJ. Dudley, attorney for the
Northern Pacific railroad company
at Spokane, has filed in the super
Tor court of Whitman county pc
tition for the issuance CT a perma-
nent injunction restraining Jacob
Slaght from proceeding to dispossess
VIM. l.. Powers, Spokane and Pa
louise railroad, Palouse Mill Co,
and q number of others, plaintiffs,
of ci5y lots in Palouse, located on
the tract Of land recently patented
by the United States to Slaght, as
a homestead. 1t is undoubtedly
an attempt by the railroad company
to force claght to a compromise.
According to the complaint, in 1877
A. NJ. Duiiield settled on the land
in question, being part Of section |,
in township 16, range As. This
land was selected as indemnity by
abe Northern Pacific, and in 1888
DutfieId re.inquished his rights to
w. l.. Powers who made contract
with the railroad company for its
purchase. Powers also obtained
from brother REIMBURSEMENT of
his right to the tier Of lots immedi-
ately north Of this land, and secured
a contract for its purchase from the
railroad company. Early in 1884
Powers rented a part of each Of
these tracts to Jacob Slaght, the
latter taking immediate possession.
In 1887, Slaght, who had always
paid Powers q rental for the land,
applied at the Walla Walla land
office to enter the land as home
stead. The land office refused the
filing, and in 1895, the commits
sioner of the general land office rem
dered a decision that the land was
not properly subject to selection as
indemnity land, and ordered
Slaght's filing received. On appeal
to the secretary of the interior, in
1896, this decision wss sustained,
and last fall Mr. Slaght proved up
and received his patent very re-
Gently. Complaint goes on to state
that prior to any decision in the
Slaght case, and about the time of
his offered entry, the Northern Pa
.,if3 right of way and depot grounds
were located on the land, and Plain
sifr Powers had issued warranty

CHAPTER vi.

Hendricks went back to his chair be-
side Mr.. Meynell, who seemed to be
waiting for him.
The coroner glanced at sheet Of pa
per on which he had written the names
of the witnessos
II think have called them all ex-
cept the son of the old man." said he
Just then they heard groan from
Ralph Benton and saw him clutohing
at the mantelpiece. A china cup and
saucer fell to the hearth with crash,
and the young man sank slowly to the
floor, face downward.
"Oh, be has faintedr" cried his sis
ter, and she ran to him and tried in
vain to raise him up. Montcastle Sc
cured pillow from the sofa and put it
under the young mans head. Hendricks
sprang up to get some water, and find
ing the Jug on the table empty he ran
into the next room. There ha filled q
glass from water cooler and brought
it back. As he entered Ralph was re-
viving. The young man opened his
eyes, smiled family, drank a little Of
the water held to his lips by his excited
sister and then drowsily closed his eyes.
IFS he subject to fainting attaoks?"
asked Hendricks.
"He used to have them when he was
q child" answered Miss Benton "Oh,
I don't know what to dol 1t is all 20
awful My poor father is dead. and if
brother were to die don't know what
Ishould do. Call Wilson and Jarnagin. "
She looked up at Montcastle. "He
must be removed to his room. It has
all been too much for him. I hope it
will soon be over" She was looking at
Hendricks. "Suroly you won't keep US
here much longer?"
"Will his testimony be necessary"
asked the coroner, touching the detect
i've OH the arm.
"Why, not at ALL" said Hendricks.
"You won't find out anything else
from the family and household. We
must look outside. my friend, outside. "
"Thank you," said Miss Benton,
holding bottle Of smelling salts to her
brothers. nostrils and rubbing his fore
head tenderly. Wilson and Jarnagin
approached. They raised the young
man between them and bore him from
the room. They were followed by the
othe, witnesses, and Hendricks, the
coroner and the jury were left alone in
the library. A verdict WAS soon rem
dssed. II read A. follows:

coroner.
Mr.. Meynell told Miss castings that
she might sit down, and then be asked

some questions. Neither Of them had
been walked by the report Of tho re-
volyer, nor bad either heard the bell
