SUPREME COURT DECISION.
Case from This County Affirmed b,
Supreme Court Thursday.

Supreme Court Thursday.
A decision Of the supreme court
Thursday affirmed the verdict of the
lower court in the case of Albret Krebs
VS.. w. E. Nicholson, Henry and Mary
Weber and ]. H. Egermayer Krebs
was former resident of the city and
was the defendant in justice court
suit a couple Of years ago, brought by
Henry Weber. A Judgment for $25 was
obtained and the plaintiff seized cart
and harness belonging to the defend
ant. The property was sold by w. f.
Nicholson, then a constable, and as Mr..
Egermayer had brought the suit in JUS
tice court all We're made defendants in
a suit which was brought by Krebs in
the district court. Krebs claimed that
the property had been wrongfully
seized and was exempt from execution.
The case was tried in the January, 1901
term, in Judge Caswell's court, and
jury returned a verdict for the plain
tiff. The defendants appealed and the
action of the lower court has been sus-
tanned. The case was hard fought from
beginning to end, Notwithstanding that
the value of the harness and cart was
placed by the jury to be only $31.37. The
costs incurred amount to many times
the value of the property.

Local Team Defeats All Others
in Regimental Team Shoot
Thursday
WIN BY FIVE POINTS
Company II Team Makes Excellent
Showing by Defeating Company a,

Thought May Have influence With
Inspecting Officer.

The rifle team of Company H, of this
city, composed of Capt. l.. w. Brown,
Lieut.. Clarence Froelich and Sergts.G Guy
Everist and Leon Wescott, covered
themselves with glory at the regimental
team shoot, held in Dubuque Thursday.
by winning both cups in the first an
nual shoot of the regiment. The To-
cal team had been practicing con-
sistently for this event, but hardly
hoped to win owning to the fact the
Company A, of Dubuque, which has
some Of the best marksmen in the
state, were shooting on their own
range. Company II Won by margin
Of points over A, which was second.
Company B, of Waterloo, got third.
The scores of the teams We're H, 1926;
A, 421; and B, 40S. The targets were
those of the standard pattern, used
by the army, and We're the figures of
a man lying prone and kneeling. Ten
shots were allowed each contestant
from ranges of 200, 800 and 500 yards.
Fifty points were possible for each
man at each range, or total of 600
for each team for the entire shoot.
Up to the 500-yard range Dubuque
led Marshalltown by nineteen points.
The locals took a brace at this stage
of the game, however, besting the home
team by twenty-five points, and win
ming by five. The total score for the
winning team was Froelich, 119; Brown,
112; Everist Ill: Wescott 81. The lat
ter's low score is due to the fact that
he had Travelled from here the night
previous and had been without sleep,
in the range shortly after
his arrival. The team wins by this
shoot two cups The first one, valued
at $50, is for the entire shoot, and a
smaller cup, valued at $50, is given the
highest score at the 500 yard range.
The Inspection.
When seen this morning regarding
the inspection to be held in this city
with the object Of determining whether
the company should be mustered out,
Capt. Brown said that he had as yet
had no official notice but he hoped that
in view of their winning the shoot ii
might benefit them. He stated that he
realized that the average attendance
at. drills had been small. but he said
that this was largely due to the build
ing in which they We're compelled to
hold their drills. 1t was too small for
company movements and during the
winter time IT is next to Impossible to
heat 1t. He said further that every
effort would be made to interest some
one in the erection of an armory. 1t Is
hoped that this may be done, as the
company is deserving of more cordial
support than it has received from the
citizens Of Marshalltown. 1t is not
known on what date the inspection will
be held.

thirty seven in the Third; eighteen In
the Fourth: and fourteen in the Fifth
at the close of the first days work.
This shows an extremely light regis

ABOUT CHAMOIS SKINS.
The Genuine Article Is Rare and
Costly, But the limitations Are
Equally ServiceabIe.

From report which the American
Druggist summarizes, it appears that
very little of 'he so-called chamois
skin which is marketed is genuine.
The real article comes from an animal
found only in the Alps. There are two
kinds of imitation known to COM
merce. The best is prepared from the
skin of the doe, the cheaper grades
from the flesh side of the split sheep
skin, The grain of the skin is first
removed by scraping with a round
knife or pumice stone. The skins are
then put into a bath of bran liquor,
wrung out, dried, again soaked in wa
ter, and the fish oil is forced into the
grain of the skin by beating several
layers of the skin soaked with oil with
heavy wooden hammers. This process
is repeated several times, the skins are
then suspended on hooks in a warm
room until a slight fermentation takes
place, which dilates the pores and pro-
notes the incorporation of the oil.
The skins are then scraped and freed
from excess of oil by treatment with
weak potash I've, washed in an infu-
sion of oak bark to give them a buff
color, dried, smothered and made sup
pie by passing between iron rollers.
After sorting, both as to quality and
size, the skins are put up in packages
of 80, each package being called
kip" The skins vary from six by
eight inches to 20 by SO inches in size.
There seems to be no practical differ
ence between the true skin of the
chamois and the imitation, which is
the commercial article, but there is
some difference in the texture which
enables an expert to distinguish be-
tween the two.
