LIMIT OF PROBATE
District Judge Says Probate Court
Cannot Enioin

Clay Center, Kan, Nov. 1S.-A decision
has been made by Judge Kimble in the
Clay county district court which is of
more than passing interest to Clay Center
people. Some weeks ago F. l.. Williams
as trustee for the Clay Center brick COM
pany was about to sell the plant to sat
isfy mortgage, but one of the stock
holders objected to the proceedings and
obtained an injunction from the probate.
judge to prevent the sale. MIR. Williams
paid no attention to the injunction but
sold the plant the day fixed. During the
first week of court contempt proceedings
were brought against Mr.. Williams and
the members of the brick company. Yes
terday the case was heard and Judge KIM
BILE dismissed the contempt proceedings,
holding that 1.-THE probate judge could not
issue an injunction and that no injunction
was in force when the plant was sold.
The decision will have a widespread eff
ect in Clay Center as the probate judge
has issued a number OF injunctions dur
ing the past few months which were of
course all without effect.

Miss Anita Rosecrans. daughter OF
General w. S. Rosecrans, and sister
of Mrs. J. X. Too1e, died Thursday

to her death. She died as the result
of peritonitis. The funeral took place
Saturday.

Helena branches of the Northern Pa

dozen or more buildings were burned

The Merrill Ditch company has filed
articles of incorporation with the sec

The canal is to start from the left bank
of the Yellowstone river in Sweet Grass

A. Clark, of Yakima, Wash, is at the
head of the movement, which will re-
suit in the reclamation of $4,000 acres
of splendid land within Il few miles of

from settlement several years ago by
the state arid land commission, but the
commission made no progress in turn

tract belongs to the Northern Pacific

There is a movement in Butte to or
ganize club that for novelty will no
doubt be entitled to the prize as far as
Montana is concerned. To be eligible
to membership in the club it will be
necessary for the applicant to produce
certificate to the effect that he has
and that the vermiform supernumerary
in the human system has been success
fully removed. The dread of this
mysterious ailment causes much un-
happiness to many, and it is thought
that through organizations of persons
who are relieved of this dread through
the removal of the cause would be
happy and congenial companions.
Thus far the first appendicitis club of
Butte has organized in very informal
manner, there being as yet no roll of
membership, but officers have been
designated among those who have been
active in the inauguration of the move
ment.
