StinSOn Land Case.

The famous Stinsun case is scheduled
to come up in the United States Circuit
Court for the Western District of Wis
consin at Madison for final hearing next
Tuesday. Whatever the decision, there
seems to be no doubt but that an appeal
will be taken, and the case is apparently
no nearer settlement than it was fifteen
years ago. The parties to the action
are the United States Government and
James Stinson. The litigation involves
title to Is iorties of land in the city of
Superior. The land is very valuable,
and the case has been hanging fire in
the courts for some fifteen years, some
of the most able land lawyers of the
country having been employed. The
government alleges that fraudulent
methods were used by tie defendant
in entering the land, anu seeks to set
aside such entry. The government will
be represented by the United States
District Attorney, and Spooner q San
born will appear for the defendant
when the case comes up Tuesday.

SOWING THE WIND.

In the character of Rosau ond in
Sowing the Wind" which comes TO
the Grand Tuesday night, December
26, is given a hint of what the woman of
the 10th century will be-etrong in self
reliance, proud because the harness of
her soul has been lifted. armored not
with innocence, but in the knowledge
OF evil. A woman of singular character
and beauty woman of impulse and
sentiment, OF strong emotion and deep
sympathy; woman of passion, rebel
lious when the affection of her heart is
threatened and writhing under the in
justice that would take from her lover
of whom she feels she is more than
worthy; a living. glowing woman of the
highest intellectually, yet virtue incar-
nate and the embodiment of every
womanly dignity.
In New York, Chicago, and other
large cities, Sowing the Wind" was
the theatrical sensation of the wears
1881, and its popularity IS still as great
as ever. 1t selects from the two sexes
each other in one of the fercest and
most relentless intellectual conflicts ever
depicted on the stage.
The woman has been thrust into the
world without the boon Of lawful par
entage and through the irony of fate
the man responsible for her situation is
now the guardian of her lover, standing
between her and the only happiness of
which she has ever dreamed, Directing
to her because for the very conditions
resulting from his own youthful pervcr-
sitv, though his relationship to her is
not maze known to him until the de-
nouement of the play. The woman,
stung and maddened by the terrible in
justice that rests upon her and vet I'M
conscious that she is speaking to the
author of her first great wrong. bursts
upon him In Il moment of wild emotion,
with most fearful arraignment to the
sterner sex for its pitless treatment of
womanhood. The man, wounded by
the truthfulness of the charge, and
writing in the secret consciousness of
his own guilt, rallies from the stagger-
ing effects of the assaults and rushes to a
desperate defense. The contest is on,
battle cry Is sex against SEX" man
and woman were never more splendid
lv matched against each other and no
encounter of the kind was ever more
skilfully conducted. The final scene
between these two principal characters
is one remembered through a life time.
The complications of the plot are few
and the interests continually center on
the issue between the old man Braba-
Zon and Rosamond

know that the Lord put the best kind

made onions. They build you up and
they let YOU down. and are as calming
as music by moonlight. Gen. Grant
telegraphed the War Department in
the summer of 1864: L will not move
my army without onions, ard the next
day three trainloads of onions were
started to the front. Dysenterv was
