"a Wiae Woman"

Manager c. E. Burg, OF the La
]unta Theatre, has closed negotia-
tions for the appearance in this
city on Monday, January 9th, of
Wilfred Clark's delightful comedy,
"a Wise Woman" This an
nouncement is OF considerable i'm
portance to our theatre patrons as
the comedy is being used to ex-
plot one of Americas most dainty
condolences, Miss Marie Lamour,
aud it is said that she has created
nosend of sensation wherever she
has been seen this season for her
finely developed gifts as an actress
and for the beauty she is said to
possess. The comedy is not only
admirably suited for the purpose of
showing Miss Larmour's admir-
able qualifications as come
dienne, but is undoubtedly one of
the Jolliest, brightest and best
written efforts OF its kind recently
brought before the public. "a
Wise Woman" proved sufficient
attraction to do a rd-breaking
business at the Strand Theatre in
London, where it ran Tor an intire
season. A supporting company
OF prominent players, including
Fredr,ck Murphy, who will be re-
called as prominent member nf
the Julia Marlowe company, have
been engaged for the season.

One OF the SWEETEST and most
elaborate social functions that
ever happened in la Jnnta took
place at Elks' Hall on the even
ing of the first day OF the glad
new year, the occasion being the
first annual ball and banquet of
La nnta Lodge, No. 7oI, b. p.
o. T.. There was sound Of
music and revelry by night, and a
large majority OF the fair women
and brave men OF both La untA
and Rocky Ford were present as
guests OF the local order.
The hall was decorated with the
royal purple colors OF the order,
and in the ante room, tables were
prcvid d for those who preferred
cards to dancing. Two mammoth
punch bowls, filled with concoc-
tions devised by some artist at the
business, were the center OF at.
traction on various and sundry
occasions. The guests began to
assemble about 9 O'Clock and when
the Rocky Ford contingent arrived
by the evening tram to join the
merry throng there were fully 200
people in the hail.
About 10 O'Clock dancing COM
menced to the delightful strains
OF the music furnished by Won
derly's full orchestra, the mem
bers Of which appeared to be en-
rapport with the occasion, and
Wed with each other in doing their
best
Shortly before II O'Clock, in the
midst OF delightful waltz, the
guests were somewhat startled by
the sharp rap of gavel, welded
by ]. b. Manly, exalted ruler Of
the local order. He requested
that all be seated while some of
the best people on earth gave the
"Eleven o'clock toast" custom
INDUCED in wherever two or more
Elks are gathered together. The
Elks repaired to the ante room to
secure the necessary 'Tegalia," "
and then solemnly and silently
formed in circle in the center OF
the hall. The lights were turned
out, and in the gloom Of the dark
ened room, the Elks chanted "Old
Lang Syne," followed by the
counting in unison of the eleven
strokes OF a n,uffl-d bell and
silently drinking the toast to the
memory Of departed brethern.
After a short but felicitous ad-
dress by Hon. 7. X Hofmite. in
which he briefly explained the
principles and objects of the
order, the guests repaired 10 the
Harvey House, where an elegant
collation., designed and executed
by the genial manager, Mr.. Bohen,
occupied exclusive attention Tor
two hours and fifteen minutes.
There were 1863 people seated at the
four tables, and while soothed and
sustained by the music OF Won
derly's orchestra, the assembled
guests waded through the follow
ing menu:

A GOOD VOTE.

The three proposed amendments
to the constitution and the propo-
sltion to increase the tax on gross
earnings of railroad companies all
received a majority of all the votes
cast in Redwood county.
If the other counties of the State
sent up as large a vote for them
there is no doubt but what they all
carried, but in Redwood county a
special effort was made for them and
it is likely that the proportionate
vote will be larger here than in
other counties.
Despite the fact that the PROPOSE
tion to increase the tax on the gross
earnings of railroad companies was
the fourth proposition on the ballot
the vote for it was larger than for

EIGHT INDICTMENTS.
Returned by Grand Jury-No Bill in Two
Cases Investigated.

The grand jury adjourned last
Friday morning, after returning
eight indictments aud reporting
that it did not find bill in two cases.
The first one of the latter was An
drew kOller. who was charged with
selling liquor without a license at
Lucan. one of the new towns on the
Western Minnesota division of the
Northwestern. The other was the
case Of Howard Hodge, charged
with having stolen a watch from
Jennie Gates. The evidence pre-
sented to the grand jury 10 both
cases was satisfactory and hence
that body refused to return indict-
mcntS. The eight cases in which
indictments were found are as fol-
lows:
Two indictments against Otto
Nord boy and Henry Kastelmeyer.
One Indictment charges them with
grand larceny in the second degree
aud the other with burglary in the
third degree. The two broke into
the saloon of Andeson & Stark at
Walnut Grove on the night of June
9th last and robbed the money
drawer OF s.. For breaking into
the room they are charged with
burglary and for taking the money
they are charged with grand lar
ceny. Nordbov was raigned Sat
urday morning, and through his
attorney. Wm Cooler. was per-
mitted until Monday morning to
enter plea. at which time not
guilty was the plea in both cases.
kastelmeyer, his accomplice in the
crime. broke Jail some time ago, and
has not since been found. The in
dictments will hang over him until
he is found or until they expire by
statute of limitation.
Three indictments were returned
against Paul Schumacher. In each
case be was accused of selling in-
toxicating liquor without a license.
The first was on June 10th. to
Thomas Welch, at Milroy. The
second was On July 1st, to Chas.
Gahagan. and the third was also to
Thomas Welch on June 10Th. He
was arraigned Saturday morning.

In this case. on request of County
Attorney Clague. Schumacher was
given in custody of the sheriff, Mr..
Clague setting forth as a reason for
his request that Schumacher had
failed to appear at the opening of
the court last Wednesday and that
it became necessary to call upon his
bondsmen to produce him, the
bondsmen having gone to consider
able expense in doing so.

MRS. BIRUM WINS.
Supreme Court Affirms Order in Breach of
Promise Case.

Attorney Charles T. Howard Of
the law firm of Bowers e Howard
scored another victory in the Su-
Dreme Court last Friday when that
body banded down decision affirm
ing the order of the lower court in
the case of Mary NJ. Birun VS.. Isaac
Johnson, wherein the latter was
given a verdict of $3.50 for breach
of promise. Speaking of the case
the St. Paul Dispatch says that
when a man promises to marry a
woman and afterwards deprives
her of an opportunity to meet him,
it is not necessary in order to
maintain an action for breach Of
promise. that she make formal de.
mand upon him to keep his engage
ment.
Furthermore, in support of her
claim for damages, evidence tending
to show that she lost a prospective
home which he is able to provide is
admissible.
This is the decision OF the Su-
prcme Court in a decision by Jus
tice Lovely Friday.
1t attirms the decision of the Red
wood county district court in the
case of Mary Birum VS.. Isacc John-
SON Mrs. Birum is awarded $3.50
damages
1t appears that in 1899 both par
ties to the action lived in Redwood
Falls. and engaged to marry. In
November Johnson departed on a
trip to Mexico. He answered none
of Mrs. Birum S many letters while
away, and when be returned ia
June, 1900, be neglected to call.
Not only that, but when be saw
her approaching on the street he
managed to avoid meeting her. He
kept up this sort of thing for a per-
iod of niue months, and then Mrs
Birum brought suit for breach uf
promise, claiming damages
The defendant tried to defeat the
action on the ground that no formal
demand had been made upon him to
keep his engagement: that be had
not positively refused in words to
keep his promise. He also objected
to the introduction of testimony re
garding his reputed wealth, for the
purpose OF showing that he was
able to provide a home for a wife.
The jury in Redwood county
awarded the plaintiff $3.50 damages.
and Johnson appealed.
The supreme court rules that uu-
der the circumstances it was not
necessary for the plaintiff to make a
formal demand upon the defendant:
that his actions, extending over a
long period, were sufficient to show
that he did not Intend to keep the
engagement. and that the admission
of evidence as to his financial stand
ing in connection with the question
of damages was admissible.

any of the other propositions. The
second proposition had less votes
cast against it, but inasmuch as an
amendment requires a majority Of
all the votes cast in order to become
a part of the constitution vote
against it was almost the same as
leaving the proposition untouched.
The vote given each proposition in
the county was as follows:

Company expects to attach their wires
to the bob" wire fences, and extend
their line to Portland, and possibly by
sub marine routes around the world.
Mr.. Lape, in speaking about the new
laundry to be started in this city about
the first of the year, said that $3.50 a
month was not an overstatement of the
money paid out by Prosser every month
for washing. The Lape hotel bill is 500
per month alone. Kennewick, Sunny

have signified their willingness to pat
