RAISE FUND FOR THE LIBRARY
Unique Entertainment Given by Pupils
Of Shively School.

The pupils OF Miss Gamers and
Professor McCormac's rooms of the
Shively school gave a most enjoyable
and unique entertainment In Kearney's
hall last Saturday evening, The show
was remarkable in the fact that 1t
was entirely the work of the children,
the teachers having nothing whatever
to do with the arrangements and were
not questioned regarding the different
performances. They attended the en-
tertainment as invited and honored
guests and were highly pleased with
the young peoples efforts to entertain
them and the public. A small admIs-
sion fee was charged, and In this way
the children cleared the sum OF SIS,
which will be devoted to the inter-
ests Of library for the school. this
laudable purpose having inspired the
pupils to give the entertainment The
hall was packed with interested spec
tators, and frequent applause attested
the appreciation felt Following is

The engineers declared that "atten-

As to the fire or ventllatlng shaft,
the experts say: 1.-THE ventilation

way as TO allow them to operate the

accomplished only by the covering OF
the shafts with an easily combustible

= For several years the Bismarck
Tribune has urged the adoption of the
Torrens land transfer system In North
Dakota and at the last session Of the
legislature the measure passed the
lower house and but for the nearness
of the close Of the session would have
passed the senate. 1t ought to be
introduced early in the coming session
and pass without serious opposition.
OF the system the Grand Forks Herald
says: The fact that committee Of
the state bar association has reported
in favor of the Torrens land transfer
law after giving the subject a thorough
investigation ought. to have some
weight with the legislature. In the
main, the experience Of other states
where this law has been tried, is; sat.
$isfactory.. The operation OF the Law
Is said to be simple and cheap, and
under 1t there seems to be much less
likelihood Of complications arising
than under the present system.

den had arranged to take Mays back
to Elk City. The officer and his pris-
oner were in the office of the jail wait
ing for train time to arrive. Friends
of Mays had left a valise with clothes
in it at the Jail for MIN. He asked to

had fired a. bullet into his head.

family at Elk City. A coroner's in
quest is to be held and the body prob

Says He Did Not Induce His Aunt to
Leave IngIeside.

In the city court a few days ago
testimony was taken in the suit of the
estate of Mary Ann Hamilton against
Everett E. Huddleston. Mr. Huddle-
stOn was not present nor had he any
witnesses to testify in his behalf
Mr.. Huddleston has written to the
State Journal from Kansas City. He
denies that he induced Miss Hamilton
to leave Ingleside and says she begged
him to take her away. He denies that
she acted in the capacity of house
keeper for him and denies that she
was forced to sleep on the floor of the
attic The testimony was that he took
her from Ingleside and that he forced
her to sleep on the floor. The testi-
mony also was that he sent her to
Larned to see a brother who did not
live in Larned, and she was sent back
by the county authorities there. Mr.
Huddleston says she asked to be sent
to Larned. Mr.. Huddleston says he
has no property which belonged to
Miss Hamilton and that all the prop
erty was turned over to Mrs. 3. NJ.
VanCleve- He denies that he ever
borrowed $40 from Miss Hamilton.
The suit was to recover property be-
longing to Miss Hamilton in her life
time which it was claimed Huddleston
took.
