the disappointment of the listeners at
court, who would have liked to have
heard the case tried on its merits.
The last case submitted to- the jury
was that of Josephson VS.. .Sigfusson. The
step-father Of Josephson had 81, 900 in
his possession belonging to Josephson.
Josephson gave Sigfusson a receipt in
advance, with power to collect the mon
ey from the stepfther. 5igfusson coll
lected the money aud gave The receipt to
the father, and claims that he handed all
the money over to Josephson. except
some Sl5, the price ota wagon the latter
had purchased from him. Josephson
swears that Sigfusson paid him only
$6S5, and sues for the balance. The evi-
dence in the case was straight contra
diction. The jury brought in verdict
for the plaintiff.
The case of Proctor VS.. Cheney is a
suit involving the survey of this city,
Proctor claiming that Cheney's store
building is about foot and half over
on hlsslot. The original survey of the
townsite is somewhat obscure and sub
sequent survey introduced requires
more proof than is at hand to show that
it is based on the monuments of the
original survey, and on this ground the
Court granted a continuance for time to
get further testimony. Another compli-
~0ti
ey warranty deed for the Cheney lot
with the building on 1t, which Proctor
claims is over the line on the adjoining
lot owned by him..
AL the jury, except those called on the
last case, were dis. Used on Tuesday af-
teEnoon and as the southbound train was
conveniently late about two hours, they
had time to get their pay, settle board
and skip for their homes.
Before leaving, however, most of the
jury took time to get together and frame
a complimentary address to Judge Knee
shaw for his courtesy, the clearness of
his charges and the celebrity with which
dispatched the business cf the court.

POOR OLD MISSOURI
Allowed Simpson to Defeat Her by a
IL TO o Score.

Columbia, Mo-. Oct. 24.-Eimpson de-
feated Missouri Friday, IL to 0. The
game was much closer than the score
indicates, as Missouri gained PAL yards
during the game and Simpson 270. Time
was called in the first half when Mis-
souri, had the ball on the first down on
Simpsons ten-yard line.
At the kickoff in the second half Mis-
souri, fumbled, giving Simpson the ball
on Missouri's twenty yard line and
Simpson carried the ball over. The
other touchdown was made on a de-
layed pass, Coe max ng a run of sixty
five yards, being tackled from behind on
the three yard line by Izzy Anderson.
From this point Simpson carried the
ball over for a second touchdown. MIS-
souri's weakness was in her line. The
little help from the linesmen.
The first half was evenly contested
neither team scoring, though 1t is
thought that with a minute more to
play Missouri could have carried the
ball over, as she was playing together
in great shape at the time.
Missouri's work was erratic. At times
the team played snappy and hard. but
at other times it played listlessIy. High
tackling is still a feature of the Tigers
playing.
Some of the individual work was fine.
Izzy Anderson, Coons. Anamosa and
Birney did the best work Simpson has

outweighs the Tigers eight or ten

Yesterday morning shortly after day

the city bound for warmer chimes. Not
five minutes after the enormous flock
had passed three successive caravans OF
geese were seen. In both instances the
birds were flying very low and would
have been easy marks for shotguns had
any been handy.
The honkers were going at a very
great rate of speed and the reason was
very apparent for it was hourly grow
ing colder and the migratory birds are
always on the wing and away as soon
as the north wind brings the odor of the
storm king on its hoary breath.
Not two days before the ducks hao
been observed flying north after fleeing

As money was needed the sale or posts
has provided the cash. The owner real
lied that it was a happy thought which
induced him to plant so many catalpa
trees, and only wishes the entire farm
was in forest
The estimated value of this catafpa
plantation today is $500 per acre, or
100000 although it has a prospective
value of as much more. for the steady
and permanent increase from the sales
of posts and similar timbers is much
greater than could be realized by any
other crop which can be grown.
Now this, except in relation to the
catalpa has nothing to do, of course,
with street tree planting. The catalpa
is not the best possible tree adapted
thereto. We have given our ideas as to
trees adapted to street planting, follow
ing with the catalpa as one of the most
valuable of hardy trees to be planted
for profit There are others that nave
the quality of hardness and decay re-
sisting qualities. Three of them may be
stated as larch. locust and Usage orange,
but the king for profit is catalpa, espe-
cially in the west as is the eucalyptus in
California
