LARGE CORN ACREAGE.
Much Blue Grass Sod and Meadow
Broken Up.

1ndianola, April 24.-The amount of
blue grass sod and meadow that is be-
ing plowed for corn is a striking feat
ure Of the opening of the crop season
in this vicinity. If corn land is be-
ing Increased in the same proportion
thru any considerable area of the corn
belt there will be a large increase in
the supply for next year.
Those who have driven extensively
thru Warren county say there will be
several thousand acres more in corn
this year than last, judging by the
amount of lowed sod to be seen on

A Profitable Condensation.

The Geographically locquacious per-
son is considerable source or revenue
to telegraphers at resorts like Allan
tic City and similar places, says an
old telegrapher.
Their easiest victims and chief
source of graft are women who ask
the operator to write out a message
for them He is always willing and
obliging and generally writes some
thing like this:
II will be home tomorrow morning
at 8 o'clock ON the $3.50 train from At
lar,tic City. Meet me at the station
with the carriage when the train ar
rives."
But this is the message which is
sent:
Home a. M; send carriage"
The difference in charges between
the two messages goes into the pocket
of the operator as we'll as perhaps a
10 cent charge for the address II the
sender looks like particularly easy
mark" When the operator may send
two hundred or more messages a day
their rake off, is easily imaginable.

COOPER WINS.

Judge Brown has tinally given: his
decision in the case of the Board Of
Education vs. E. Cooper treasurer.
The decision is in favor of Mr..
Cooper, who is not required to pay
interest on any part of the school
funds. The, Board, having lost,
must Of course pay the costs, which
together with attorney fees, amount
to q coniderable sum. Suit was
brought about a year ago to recov-
or interest amounting approximate
ly to two hundred dollars. The case
Was tried before Judge: Brown at the
February term Of court, but for
some reason the decision was with.
held until Tuesday Of this week. y
Mr.. Cooper says he has never at"
tempted TO do much explaining in
the matter for the reason that he
believed the law would set him
right. Naturally he feels somewhat
elated over the outcome of the trial,
as he considers the decision a suffioi-
ent explanation to the people and a |
complete vindioation of himself.
Upon the case the Democrat pre-
fers to make no comment. The
Board brought the action believing
it had grounds for doing so, but the
court has sustained Mr.. Cooper, and
that ought to settle the matter.
