COURT TDoINGs.
Nothing of Much Importance Has Tran.
spired During the Week

The past week has not been an i'm
portant one, az faras court proceedings
are concerned. The petit jury was
dismissed on last Tuesday and Wed
nesday, but reported on Thursday
when the Finneran VS. vannier case
came up before them On Tuesday
afternoon the grand jury was drawn as
follows: Fl. johnson of Union,
foreman; Peter Atzen. of Hanover:
VIM Launderville. of Hays: L. l..
Osterlund, OF Milford; j. A. Pthan, of
Stockhom; Claus Grill, of Goodrich;
r r. Montgomery clerk.
The Flnneran case was commenced
before a jury Thursday. This was a
case against DIETRICH Vannier receiver.
Fnneran claims to have placed some
COWS in charge of Mr., Justice who was
living on the Chas. Hartwig farm.
tlnnera.f claims he placed the COWS
there and gave Justice the price if he
desired To purchase them. If he did
not he was to have the use and benefit
of the cows for keeping them. When
Vannier was appoined receiver the
cows were still on the place and he
took possession OF these. In the case of
John A. May vs. S. A. Wilson. Carl +.
Rnehnle was appointed referee and
bonded for $40 coo
the oamage case of Clara voet vs.
hris Jacobson was dismissed at
plaintiffs cost.
Friday court was dismissed for
a couple of hours, owing to
the fact that the furnace would not
draw and filed the court room with
smoke. A stove was secured and the
room is now being heated fairly well.
On Saturday court adjourned until
Monday afternoon at which time the
Flneran case came on again and at this
lime is still in progress.

death. He was working ior the Stewart
Lumber Co at G4liaway
About week ago Mr. SERVER received
letter from Mr.. Sundstrom saying
he was fee.iug we'll and had just been
to church, and the letter was very en-
couragiug. His death is thus IA great
surprise to all The remains will be
buried at Gallaway as deceased had no
near relatives il this country. MIR
Sundstrom has been 81 resident of Deni-
son for number of years, that is he al
ways called Denison his home. He
was born in Sweden where he received
a good education. We believe he was
first educated for the ministry
GA first coming to America he acted
as a missionary out in Utah, where he
travelled in the interest of the Swedish h
Baptist society, He was fluent talker
WAS well versed, and could readily
speak on any subject. For some time
he was trusted employee at the Boy $
store and when that firm establi he'd u
store ut Deloit he WAS one OF the men
.who was put in charge After this
firm sold out Mr.. Sund strom went to
Wisconsin where he remained al
last winter, returning to Denjson in
the spring Later he WAS given posi-
tion With the Stewart Lumber Co and
would have been advanced to ward
manager in the spring.
Mr.. Sond-trom has never enjoyed
the best of heal III, being troubled more
or less with consumption, and was often
compelled 10 resign from good posi-
tlons in order 10 recuperate his health
During his stay in Wisconsin he passed
through along siege Of sickness. About
three weeks ago he paid q visit to his
Denison friends and all remarked that
he WAS looking u great deal better
than when he went to Nebraska
Many there are who deeply regret his
untmeiy death.

Tendency Of the. Times.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventative measures. The
best thought OF the world has been
given to the subject. It is easter and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t
has been fully demonstrated that
pneumonia, one OF the most danger.
GUS diseases that medical men have to
contend with oap he prevented by the
use Of Chamherlatnb Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from cold
Or from an attack Of inAuep3a (grip),
and 1t has been observed that this
remedy cOunteract8 any tendency OF
these diseases toward pneumonla.
This has been proven Ia many thous-
ands OF cases In .whfob this remedy
has been used during the great pre-
valance Of colds and grip Ia recent
years, and can be relied upon with
implicit confidence. Pneumona often
results from slight cold when no
danger Is apprehended untilit Is sud-
denly discovered that there is fever
and difficulty In ,bseathing.and pains
in the chest, then 1t In announced that
