Francisco last Saturday night, arriving
home Tuesday evening at 11:15. Mr..
Michaels is in splendid health and spir-
its and will not go on record as dis

with the prospect in Alaska. He has
made as yet no definite plans for the
future. and he intimates he may return
to Alaska. Mr. Benjamin is still In San
Francisco, attending to business mat
ters. Mr.. Michaels says Mr.. Ed Vail is
in good condition and to substantiate
his statement brought a photograph to
Mr.. j. d. Vail of his son, taken just be-
fore Mr.. Michaels left San Francisco.

WILL PLEAD GUILTY

Conclude to Take Their Legal
Medicine.
Monroe Wilson. Held For Larceny
Will Also Plead Guilty-His
Case Once Tried.
Contradictory Evidence introduced
In Damage Suit of LAMA vs..
Quarry Conn any.

At least three Of the men now in the
Marshall county Jail awaiting trial on
various charges will plead guilty, prob
ably in the hope of securing lighter SEN
fences than they would if they stood
trial and were convicted.
County Attorney Stone and Sheriff
Mcpherson have been notified by Will
son and Bush, the two cripples who
were observed by C. w. Bacon in the
act OF relieving Mrs. Hogancamp of a
purse while she was walking on the
streets of this city. that they will go
before the court and acknowledge their
guilt. The maximum penalty for this
crime is ten years. Monroe Wilson,
who was convicted at the previous
term of court of the larceny of watch
from shoemaker named Hass, but
who was granted new trial because of
a technicality in the proceedings, has
signified his desire to forego the for
mality of another trial. An opportunity
will be given these men to plead as soon
as the Lanza-LeGrand Quarry Com
pany case is concluded.
The trial of the damage suit of b.
LAMA against the LeGrand Quarry
Company, an action to recover damages
in the sum of $4,000 for the loss of his
eyesight while in the employ of the de-
PENDANT company in its quarries, is oc-
cupying the entire time in the district
court. Two of Defendants witnesses
We're Mr.. E. w. Stubbs and
DIR. A. l.. Stubbs, who are
at present located in Kansas. LAMA, af-
county farm, and at that time DR..
Stubs was county physician and treat
ed him and E. w. Stubs was superin-
tendent of the farm.
The defendant submitted as an inn
portant piece of evidence an agree
ment, on which LAMA had made his
mark to the effect that he would ac-
cept 5000 in settlement for his injuries.
Messrs. Stubbs We're present during
this transaction.
Mr.. LAMA went on the stand in his
