LAW SUIT OVER so CENTS.
A Dispute Regarding a Small Sum
Causes litiuation

\
| Calender, Feb. ga novel suit for
the possession of disputed fifty cents
between Henry Stenshoel, furniture
dealer of Calender. and the Mime
tonka Medicine company. travelling
Organization which has been playing a
nine day engagement in this place, was
settled today by the payment of the
costs of the trial by the Medicine COM
many. The costs amounted to 81.
The case all arose over dispute in
the matter Of change at the box office.
Mr.. Stenshoel started to attend the
performance on Saturday evening. He
says that he laid down dollar on the
ticket window. and was given back 40
cents, instead OF 80, which he claims
was due him. The Medicine company
claimed that Mr. Stenshoel only offer
ed half dollar and got all the change
that was coming to him.
The matter eliminated in the arrest
OF the ticket agent, who was tried on
Monday afternoon on charge OF en-
beZZlement, and a hard fought legal
contest was held in the town hall. be-
fore Justice Rasmussen and an inter-
ested audience. The medicine com.
pany's attorney claimed that the fact
that Mr.. Stenshoel, by picking up and
pocketing the forty cents which were
rendered him, had relinquished any
claim for further payments, but be-
fore the decision was rendered, the
case had reached a settlement on pay
ment of the costs by the company. The
company at first threatened to take
the matter to higher court If the suit
went against them but later decided
to settle.
The smallness of the real sum a.
issue, together with the earnestness
with which the legal battle was fought
combined to give Calender sensa-
ton such as it has not had for many
weary days.

HOW MONKEY RESCUED AN ELEPHANT FROM CRUEL HUNTEF
By Bis Cunning the Monkey Sue
ceeded In Accomplishing a Feat
That the Elephant With His
Great Strength Was Unable to
Perform.

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY nEPUBIic-
Once upon a time there was an ele-
plant so kfnd-hearted that It grieved
him to see anything harmed or mo-
Tested.
One day, while quietly grazing along
the edge OF his native jungle, he near
ly tread on 4 monkey. The monkey,
of course, supposed that It WAS inten-
tlonal on the elephants part, and
would have bitten him, but seeing by
the elephants actions that he had no
desire to harm him, his anger abated,
and he concluded that he would be a
good creature for q companion, so they
kept together for a long time and be-
came great friends.
One day they were surprised by q
party OF hunters, and the elephant
made captive This grieved the mon
key very much, and he. scurried OF TO
the bushes to plan some way of effect
ing lis friends release. As it was near
the close Of day, the hunters decided
to encamp for the night, and after Sc
curing the elephant, settled themselves
for good nights rest. While the mon
key WIS quietly bidiRg his time IN his
hiding place, he noticed that as the
darkness increased the place became
infested with .fref1es, and It occurred
TO him that they would be the very
thing TO effect his friends release. So,
stealing quietly over to the elephant,
be made known his plan. Then he
crawled over and secured a spear and
drinking cup from one of the sleeping
hunters and ran of In search Of 4 gum
tree. Finding one, he thrust the spear
Into its trunk, and, Withdrawing Il, a
stream Of gummy, sticky sap oozed
out. So, filing the drinking cup with
this gum, he returned to the camp and
helped himself to a large spoon and
some sugar. This he mixed with the
sap, and IN q short time be had pre-
pared a substance very much Ike
honey, but much more sticky. So far
his plan worked out all right, and If he
could only hnd a paint brush his
friends release would be assured. Just
where 10 obtain this puzzled him
greatly, and for awhile # seemed be
yond the range of possibility that he
should find one. and he began to fear
that after all his plan would fail and
his friend be dragged OF to grace some
geological garden. As he sat there puz-
cling his head, he kept chewing away
