work. Minneapolis allows no primary
pupil to enter after the first month OF

day night and took B. B. Stewart in

eddy make everything good. 1t is hard
to Justify Stewards actions here and the
general opinion seems to be that he was
not in his right mind.

Testimony was taken the past week
before Geo. Aud in this city in an i'm
portant land case. The facts are SUBJ
stantially as follows: In 1000 VIM. COL
grove filed water claim and at the re-
quired time made proof as he supposed,
as required by law. About this time, in
1901, Mike Gion filed a homestead on
the claim. Some time later Gion re-
ceived notice from the Bismark land
office that the claim would not be sub
ject to homestead entry until tive years
, from the time the water claim had been
filed, but later he received word from
the general land office at Washington
that he could 60 ahead with his resi-
dence and improvements under his
homestead entry made in 1901. Levi
C~olgrove, father of William who made
the reservoir filing, pow contests the
claim on the grounds of homage and
abandonment. At the hearing Gion
admitted that he was under II years of
age when he made the fling and claimed
that he did not understand the language,
etc., and now contends for a re-instate
ment. There is no ruling on a case of
