A number of squatters are however
disposed to question their right TO the

hold as homesteads. Guy Harrington,
of Onawa, was one OF the first to file
a claim.
Mr.. Holman held most OF the land
under a warranty deed from Holbrooll

ago that the land formerly known as
the big bend was still a part and par

Man in Whose Cellar Was Found 200
Prairie Chickens Fined $50.
Special to Times-Republican.l
Sioux City, Jan. Notwithstanding
that d. n. Talbot, Harvey II. Hawman
and C. B. Kuhl swore hat they found
three barrels containing 200 prairie
|chickens in the cellar of the Potter meat
market. January Z. the jury selected to
hear the case last night returned the
surprising verdict that but one bird was
found. This was without the defense
having put a single bird on the stand.
Mr.. Potter was fined $40 and costs for
having a prairie chicken in his posses
sion and the jury was dismissed.
The verdict states that the law was
plainly violated and that a man who
has birds in his possession unlawfully
is guilty of violating the law whether
they are shipped from an outside state
or not. Therefore the state won that
point with ease, but the jury could not
believe thai the three witnesses knew
what they were talking about when they
stated that they had found 200 chickens
packed in three barrels and hidden
away in the cellar. Instead of $4,000
fine as the law provides, $40 and costs
was set by Justice Brown.
