pany took up entire time OF
the court from Tuesday noon.
Thi., is a suit brought to have
the dam at the mill lowered to
what it is alleged was it's height
prior to the years 1899 an
1900. Also to recover dam
ages for the loss of crops on
plaintiffs land caused by such
alleged increase in height.
Many witnesses were called by
each side.
Seth Dean, civil engineer of
Mills county, who had made a
very complete topographic
survey of the territory involved
was the principal witness for
the defense. S. Etnyre, city
engineer of Council Bluffs, had
made survey for the plaintiff.
On Monday morning the
court reporter, j. Ferguson,
missed his train at Council
Bluffs, so that he was not able
to get to Logan until LOS in
the afternoon. Judge Thornell
spent the forenoon with default
cases and motions.
The demurrer in the case of
the State of Iowa VS. S. /. King
was over-ruled. Arrangement
had and plea of not guilty
entered.
In the case of Bridgman VS.
Williams ct al, the demurrer
was argued and no ruling made.
Charles Bitterli was granted
a divorce from May Bitterli.
The Mill-dam case occupied
Monday afternoon. S. Etnyre
was a witness in rebuttal. Tie
plaintiffs also called in another
engineer, Mr.. King of the
South Omaha stock yards.
There appeared to be a dis
crepancy between Etnyer,s
and Kings measurements on
thu dam. Tuesday the argu-
ments were made and the case
submitted about 3 p. M, when
the Wall case was taken up and
tried to a jury. The intervenor
was dropped out of this case
before submission.
The demurrer in the case Of
Bridgman VS. Williams ct al
was withdrawn and the case
will be tried on its merits.
On Monday evening Deputy
Sheriff Barnes Of Jefferson
county, Iowa, arrested Sherman
w. Morris, alias Frank Sher-
cliff, for a hold-up of a station
agent at Lockridge, in that
county, about fourteen years
ago, Morris applied uuder
Thornell for a writ of habeas
corpus. G. S. Grail, county
attorney of Jefferson county,
demurred to the petition. The
demurrer was supported by an
argument and citation of
authorities by County Attorney
Grail. Elmer Thomas, Morris
attorney, raised the point that
Morris should have been tried,
or his case called up for trial
and cause shown why he was
not tried on the court records
of Jefferson county, that Morris
had been in the state eleven of
the fourteen years since the
indictment was found and that
such residence had been public
and continuous and the statutes,
Bill of Rights, now favored bis
dismissal. After argument
Judge Thornell directed the
authorities to be put in shape
and he would examine as soon
as possible and then rule on
Thursday (today) morning.
The demurrer was over-ruled
and S. w. Morris set at liberty.
The officials of Jefferson coun-
ty excepted and chose to stand
on the demurrer.

Almost a Soeoting Scrape

There came very near being
a shooting scrape on Sioux
City No. 2 this afternoon just
before the train reached the
Valley. A couple of gamblers
had been indulging in a "jack
pot" when they got into a row
and both pulled their guns.
One of them snapped his gun
twice at a travelling man who
was holding the stakes but the
cartridge failed to explode.
The guns were taken from the
excited men by Conductor
Bachelor before any killing
was done.

Our Daily Short Story

over again. The more dark horses,
the more money, said Sally, and they
went at the constitution with a bowie
knife and cut out such a scandalous
thing as a monthly meeting, and
changed 1t to gathering every week
Soon the TuttiFruttfs money was on
speaking terms with some of the
SWEETEST accounts in the bank. and at
the end of six months the society de-
cided to give a ball.
Sally was the whole show One
little girl was engaged to Perkins. a
printer, and Sally appointed her a
committee of one to see to the press
work. How much? said the little girl
to Perkins, and Perkins said Nothing
and went to the back of the shop and
asked somebody TO kick him. Then
Sally called on some of the merchants
They were looking for contributions to
rattle she said, sweetly, and the first
man she tried to hold up showed her
the door. and asked her did she think
he was running a hook shop. After
that she used tact. OF course. if a
store keeper could afford to lose the
Tutti- Fruits Ladies' trade he needn't
give anything. but The merchants
took the hint. First came a morris
chair, then a bottle of hair oil, then a
bunch of junk that would have done
credit to an iron foundry, and last
ly a cheap wedding ring. You can
give 1t to some of the old maid la
dies said the clerk in the jewelry
store. Sally never spoke to him again.
The society called on the editor of
the Weekly Howler' in a body. and
that divinity nearly fell out of his
sanctum when they asked for free
space. 1t was unheard Of he sput-
tered and then they sat down to argue
1t out, and from that moment he
asn't even a nalso-ran. At five
o'clock the printers devil carried him
out limp as a rag. Well come again
tomorrow said Sally. Don't implored
the editor; I'll give you half a col
umn.'
Il think they paid for the hall. but
I'd have to see the bills to believe II
Each and every Tutti-Fi utti Lady was
expected to sell ten tickets. and soon
the town and the male inhabitants
thereof began to wear a haunted look
You couldn't go to the corner grocery
without being held up for a quarter
and 1t meant financial ruin to go out
for a prolonged walk. One lady
camped on my trail for three days.
and then I tipped a policeman dollar
to lock her up as a suspicious charac-
ter. That quieted things down a bit.

The ball was grand success. The

patent leather shoes, and Perkins, the
printer, sported a red tie. The band
was an amateur cornetist. He knew
only Marching Through Georgia. and
he played that over and over again
until midnight. Then we took up a
collection and begged him to stop, and
while he was packing away his In

STORM IN COFFEE.
Judge Bradford Says LOSS Not Exag-
Eernted.

Eernted.
In the opinion of Judge Thomas
Bradford of the State Convict Depart
ment, the recent severe hail storm
which passed over the Wiregrass dis
trict did damage which will amount to
100000.
The worst part of the storm. Judge
Bradford said. covered a territory elev-
en- miles long and three miles wide.
Judge Bradford made a personal in
spection of the storm territory in the
last two or three days. In some
places he was told the hail was raked
up until the pile was as high as a
mans head. Some of the ice drifted
into ravines and so plentiful was 1t
that it will probably be there for sew
eral days. Judge Bradford brought to
Montgomery n number of cotton plants
which were stripped and skinned by
the pelting hail. He says that the ac-
counts of the destruction of the storm
have not been exaggerated.
Fund Reaches 327.
The Advertiser fund for relief of the
storm sufferers in Coffee County was
