Ira Weltner who was sentenced to the
state penitentiary last January for wheat
stealing near Glasston, was brought back
from Bismarck by Deputy Sheriff New
ans for new trial. At the preliminary
examination the justice denied the pris-
oner a change Of venue, and on this point
Attorney ]. d. Stack of Bathgate carried
the case up to the supreme court which
decided that Weltner was entitled to the
change of venue asked for, and conse-
quently all subsequent proceedings were
illegal. Weltner therefore has between
the county Jail and the penitentiary, serv-
ed about eight months imprisonment and
now the case is to begin over again.
The preliminary hearing was before
Justice Aylen, Messrs. Hager and Cor
win appearing for the state and Stack and
kneeshaw for the defense. A change Of
venue was taken to c. H. Eastman of
Carlisle and by agreement the hearing is
to be held at his Office on Thursday next
at O'Clock p. M. Bail was fixed at
$500. Judge Sauter retained part of
the jury of the present panel with prob
ability of calling court together about
July 18th to determine this case, as not
only the prisoner is held at county ex-
pense but the principal witness for the
state.

It's 'unlucky to pass under a ladder"
And Muggins he's sadder and madden,
since he hung his pot on round so high,
then from the ground glanced to the sky
just in time to see, Oh my! and catch
in his dark blue eye, two quarts of fine,
sage green, as pretty shade as ever was
seen. The stuff went soaking down his
back, filling each hollow and crack, un.
til at last 1t began to ooze from the bot
tom of pants and tops OF shoes. And
Muggins as he went home to change his
dress, in language queer his feelings did
express, and he gets Bladder and madden,
