The court has been in session
now near,y two weeks and has
disposed of a great deal of bust
ness. In another column will be
found a report of the cases dis
posed of. The Equity cases are
usually of little interest except to
the litigants. There is an ex-
ception in the case of Kemmish
vs. thinner, which the court
heard aud took under advisement,
but has not announced his aeci-
sion.
The law cases have the run this
week, and several of minor i'm
portance have been disposed of.

trial. COffman was killed bv

The grand jury is still in SEES
sion but of their proceedings
nothing has been reported yet,
except the discharge of Samuel
Ditzler, Winning, and the the
Hood boy, and the Indictment of
Lewis Felts, of Dunlap, for forg-
cry. 1t is charged that he forged
the name of his father-in-law,
Thomas Cody, now of Missouri
Valley, to a note of $4,000. This
note was given to the First Ma
tional bank of Dunlap about Sep
TENDER /, 1899.
Mr. Felts was engaged in busi-
ness in Dunlap, in the firm of u
Felts & Co, until Jan l, 1900,
when the firm failed and the stock
was sold to Stein Bros, of Friend,
Neb. He has wife and one son
about four years old. Mr. Felts is
now in Jail in Logan

A Good Recommendation

could any medicine have than for PEG
pie to cali for 1T when again in need
of such remedy? Try them when you
feel dull after eating, when you have
q bad taste in your mouth, feel bilious,
have no appetite Or when troubled
with constipation, and you are certain
to be delighted with the prompt relief
which they afford. For sale by Elliott

There is strong talk by our citi-
zens of organizing stock company
and building an opera house. 1t
is to be hoped that the scheme
will go through as we need an
opera house very bad. 1t is thought
that one 4ox7O would be large enough
for the town if properly seated At
first 1t was proposed to buili one on
some side street away from the main
business street but the latest talk now
is to build large double store with
an opera house over the entire struc.
ture. We hope it will be built-Persia

The Coal strike.

President Roosevelt is seeking
every method Ivy which there may be
federal action in settling the coal
strike. Ills cabinet advisers have been
requested to look carefully into the
laws which have bearing on the
subject and see If there is any statute
under which he can proceed. SO far
nothing has been found. There Is one
ray of hope, but it is rather faint in
view of the attitude Of the coal oper-
atorS. This is that some mutual
ground for arbitration may be found.
That tie president is very much in
earnest is shown from the conferences
on the subject that continue at the
White House.
The American Federation of Labor,
through It's executive council, has is
sued an address to the public. appeal
ing for financial and moral aid for the
striking miners. and denouncing the
attitude Of the mine owners. on whom,
the appeal says. must rest the respon-
sibility for the hardships resulting
from the coal famine

without forming a high opinion of

The Cranberry Crop.

From reports received from various
sources 1t seems likely that the cram
berry crop will be somewhat less than
II was last year. One forecast says
that Massachusetts,, which last year
shipped 100000 barrels OF cranberries,
will this year ship only about 10000.
New Jersey. which last year sent out
over 100000 barrels, will this year
have bnt about half that amount to
SELL Wisconsin is fortunate in the
possession of a crop of about $4,000
barrels, which is 10000 barrels more
than she aad last year. 1t Is probable
that prices will be good, and that the
eaters OF turkey and cranberry sauce
will pay a high price for their sauce
this year, as they have been doing for
a number of years. The fact Is. the
cranberry Is yearly growing In favor
and the supply hardly keeps pace
with that demand. 1t is not an easy
matter to develop new boys, though
opportunities exist on every hand
Cranberry growing requires good
deal of brain force expenditure and q
very great expenditure of muscle
Then too. the business has not YET
been reduced to a science, and We
have yet to find out just how to fight
some Of the insect pest.

NEST OF PASSENGER PIGEON.
Immense Numbers Of Birds Conure
gate in Breeding Places.

The mode of building adopted by
the passenger pigeon is worthy Of a
somewhat detailed description. Of
the bird itself we need only remark
that it is remarkable for its speed and
range of fight, and for the immense
NUMBERS which congregate in each
favorite breeding place. 1t is rather
larger than the common sized pigeon,
and its feathers lie very fiat and even
These pigeons always breed in the
trees, frequently occupying a very
considerable area. From their habit
OF building a kind of flooring of small
twigs and roots on the branches to
serve as a nest, they are classified
among the platform builders They
can hardly be called tropical birds,
for they range northward as far as
the extreme boundaries of Canada.
On the other hand. they range south.
ward as far as the Gulf of Mexico. AS
many as a hundred birds will con-
struct their platforms in single tree,
and as they not uncommonly spread
through a wood of twenty miles in
length and four or five in breadth,
the reader can imagine what myriads
will be gathered together in a single
breeding place.

Paid for Broken Neck.

Thirty-ive thousand dollars for a

IN A COMEDY JAIL.
Prisoners Rarely Attempt to Secure
Their Liberty.

Their Liberty.
Elizabethtown, the county seat OF
Essex, in the Adirondacks, possesses
comedy Jail. 1t is small having win
dows secured by wooden bars. and a
jail yard Enclosed by solid fence OF
three-quarter inch boards which a
healthy male could push over with his
shoulder. But the prisoners rarely
II ever. attempt to escape.
Some good stories are told by resi-.
dents. II is a custom to allow the
prisoners out on parole, so that they
may cut the grass on neighboring
lawns, do garden work, or repair roads
for the village or county Recently
one prisoner who should have returned
at 6 o'clock did not apply for admis-
sion until nearly an hour later. The
warden angrily demanded to know the
reason, and added:
Don't let this occN again or | will
not allow you to collie in. | lock the
door at o clock and won't open ii in
the future for you"
Another, accused OF and awaiting
trial for manslaughter, oyerstaid his
parole and pleaded as an excuse that
as ii was Saturday he thought he
would go and spend Sunday with his
wife, returning to the Jail on Monday
morning.
