ment Land Patents.

ment Land Patents.
Two patents from the government for
land in this county were filed in the reg
lister Of deeds Office yesterday. The two
deeds covered half section OF land in
Alton township IN this county. one was
a deed from the government Of the Unit.
ed States to Frank c. Brown for the
southwest quarter Of section S. and the
other TO Isaac G. Finn for the southeast
quarter Of the same section.
When asked why these deeds were not
put on record before, when they were
issued under the administration OF Pres
ident Hayes, Register Kerr said the only
reason was that people were negligent
about such things. He said there were
government deeds coming in every few
days Tor record When people proved up
their claims many of them took the land
Office receipt for the money and never
paid any attention about the deed. and
when some Of them wanted TO sell the
buyer would ask Tor the deed from the
govrnment.
Harry Stewart said there were a good
many strange things about deeds. He
gave Il as his opinion that there were not
les than 5oo pieces of land IN this county
for which there were ne government
deeds on record IN the county He said
very few people ever took the trouble 70

gard 10 their land. one very singular
instance was brought 70 his attention
only few days ago Il was IL the case
OF John Reed Of Cowley county.
Mr. Reed used 70 live IN this county and
he owned q fire farm IN sherman town
ship. Last week he sold it 70 the Cath
olic priest az Andsls and came ID here
TO make out the deed Ine priest was
there ready 10 pay over the money he
told Harry Stewart 10 make him out an
abstract while they went 70 one Of the
other offices. he said x would not take

farm by mistake. giving the description

He was compelled 70 file a suit in the dis
trict court to quiet his title and he had TO

was put TO all this trouble on account OF

called was between the Eagles and the
Hawks and resulted in a victory for the
former by a score OF 16 TO 6. This is the
first time this season the Hawks have
played. and the defeat came from lack
OF practice. They promise better quail
ity Of bail in the future
The second game, between the Owls and
the Sunhowers, was mora exciting, as il
was anyhody's game up 70 the seventh
inning, when flaming lost control Of tho
ball and allowed seven runs Petts. for the
Owls, was steady. except n the fourth.
when four runs were charged against
him. Both teams played fair fielding
game and the score stood 13 70 8 IN favor
OF the Owls.
one Of the best features of the game
was a hot liner BY snellbaker between
center and right felders, which resulted
in a home run. The catching of Ray
Hackney for the Eagles was good. con
