The most humorous OF all the
causes disposed of yesterday was
that of Kemron f. Messenger VS..
Judge Jesse g. Northcnt OF the Bent
county court. The case in the Bent
county court was a replevin action, in
which j. H. Jones was the plaintiff
against Messenger. Messenger ask
ed the Supreme court for writ OF
prohibition against the judge to pre-
vent him "from abusing his discre.
ton" The higher court did no.
consider the application in serious
light, and in a per curiam opinion
refused it, thus allowing the Judge
to ''abuse his discretion" in the re-
plevin case il he so desires. Denver

gamer of Woodmen OF the World.
came to visit the lodge last Saturday
and on Monday evening gave lect-
nre in the lodge room. The hall
WAS crowded and every one present
felt more than repaid for attending.
The lecture was of its self great
intellectual treat, and thoroughly
enjoyed by the audience. And then
after that Mr.. Meakin gave several
numbers in way that completely
captiyated all. A fine speaker and
one who entered earnestly into his
subjects. he seems to be the charact
er itself, which he strives to repre-
sent. His visit will long be remem
bered here and those who did
attend, are telling every body else
what a grand treat they missed.

nounce tho coming Of the Prince
OF Comedians, Alba Haywood and
his Peerless company. 10 an entirely
new program Mr. Heywood II un-
doubtediy the most versatile and ar
tistic comedian that tours the west.
He can tell funny story, sing a
comic song and impersonate eccen-
tric characters in a way that is inim-
liable. While convulsing an audi.
.nce with laughter he never bids
for popularity by STOPPING to vui
garity or coarseness- Throughout
his work there sparkles and CLEANS
the brilliant wit and keen insight in /.
to the funny side OF life that is the
highest type Of art. He is the fav-
orite Of the ladies because he under.
stands the art OF entertaining with.
out offending; the favorite Of men
because his work is fresh and new
and his fun contagious; the fsvorite
OF the children because he loves
them all and can make their eyes
sparkle with delight and their little
mouths open with wonder at his
wonderful mimicry and ventriloqual
powers. MIR Heywood's supporting
artists are close seconds in popular
favor and make perfect back
ground for this brigh particular
star. This company will be seen
here on the even of Nov. 2, at Coll
adsy's hall.
