oRAToRIcAL CONTEST.
The Exercises at the Congregational
Church Last Saturday Evening
Were Much Enjoyed.

The Oratorical contest Saturday
evening was a great success, as usual.
The first of these contests was held
year ago for prizes offered by Rev.
Abernethy and was SO great a success
that this year Prof. Baugher decided
that he would himself offer the prizes
and depend on the interest of the pa
irons of the schools to meet the ex-
pense. That his faith was justified
was shown by the splendid audience
which turned out to greet the young
people Saturday night. The contest
was in two divisions, the first includ-
ing the third to the seventh grades
inclusive, and the second division the
eighth grade and high school. The
contest was so even that the judges
had great difficulty in deciding as to
the prize winners but after extended
delioeration the following award was
made in the order named: In the
first division. Abby Ketelson, third
grade: COldie Reeder, fourth grade;
Gilbert Lewis, fifth grade. In the
second division Lorain Lewis, eighth
grade; Mae Painter, senior, and Mel
lie Lewis, eighth grade. One nOtic-
able feature of the contest was that
with one exception the prize winners
"CIC LII tuC lo"CSo o0Oo oihohf~ viz
contestants. Wilson's orchestra was
present and contributed some choice
selections which were greatly appre-
ciated. The high school quartet
rendered a pleasing selection. but the
hit of the evening, judging from the
generous APPLAUSE, was made by the
north side quartet, composed of two
little boys and two little girls. They
were recalled time and again until
their repertoire was exhausted.
The value to the pupils in these
contests is not to he measured by the
prizes, which are simply meant as a
token, but is to be found in the conf
dence attained by the pupils and the
training they get in elocution. The
work in the schools along these lines
has been highly satisfactory to the
patrons and the proficiency attained
by the pupils is very gratifying to the
teachers.

COURT PROCEEDINGS.
Numerous Cases Disposed of at the
Sessions of the rlay Term of
District Court.

Court convened Tuesday with Judge
Lobdell on the bench. The following
cases were disposed of:
Proctor vs.. PiXley was dismissed
with prejudice. In this case Proctor
sued Pixiey for $500. Proctor sought
to continue the case but the judge
dismissed the case and if Proctor
still wishes to recover he will be COM
pelled to begin over again.
w. n. George VS.. Ollie George.
This was a divorce case and the
petition was granted.
Louise .Koehler VS.. F. Antoine
Lippoldt: Court made findings of
fact and stated conclusion of law and
rendered Judgment for defendant for
costs and dissolved Injunction.
Margaret Spring VS.. David Spring.
Mrs. Spring petitiOned for divorce.
Petition was refused. The court
made series of orders in this case
which are very unusual. He ordered
the personal property sold to satisfy
costs and debts. He placed the title
of the homestead in the woman and
gave the man u life estate in the same
provided he kept up the charges
against the property. Mrs. Spring
goes to Ft. Scott to make her home
with a son. The old man can renal q
on the property provided he behaves
himself. Messrs. Dyer and Beezley
were appointed trustees of all the
property and directed to see that the
proprieties are observed and further
directed that il the RELATIONS existing
in the family which have caused the
present trouble are not broken up
then the county attorney is directed
by the court, the Judge taking full re-
sponsibility in the matter, to cause
the arrest of the offending parties
and to see that all laws are respected
Should further complaints arrive
from that section of the country re-
garding these people they will be
summarily dealt with.
Ira Parker VS.. w. N. Pierce. This
case was appealed from the lower
court and was for rent of thirty acres
of land aud was tried before a jury.
Verdict was for $50 and costs. Wher
Mr.. Pierce pays this rent he will have
paid the highest rent ever paid in
this county. AS a matter Of fact the
$50 is just twice what the jury figured
the damage. as in this class OF cases
the verdict is twice what the jury finds
to be the actual rental value of the
land.
6. II. Minton vs.. Dist. No. %. This
was appealed from the lower court
where Minton had won verdict. A
jury was called but was not used as
Mr.. Dyer raised the point that the
plaintiff could not recover on the war
rant as it was illegal. The court de.
cid d. the point in his favor and dis
missed the case with prejudice. The
Judge then called up the board and
ad vised them to settle with Mr.. Min.
ton, saying that the case could be
commenced again in proper shape
and they would have to pay the value
of the property in dispute, and while
it might not be the full amount of tho
warrant as drawn. still the expense
