Washington, July 25.-In a pamph-
let just issued by the United States
bureau Of education entitled "Educa-
tiOnaI Benefactors,' John d. Rookie
feller is given high praise as an edu-

DEWEY CASES NOW SEIZED
JUDGMENT OF 5000 IN THE DIS
TRICF COURT.
L W. Colby, Attorney for the Berrys.
Has Perhaps Put Famous Dewey
Berry Trouble 70 Sleep.

At the adjourned July term OF the
district court Of Sherman county, held
in GOodland, July 26 and %, a 5udE-
ment was rendered for DAMAGES
against the Deweys IN the sum Of$4, 500
each in the cases Of the widows OF
Daniel Berry and Alpheus Berry; also
a judgment Of $1,000 in favor OF Roy
Berry, who was shot in the law.
The case Of the heirs Of Burchard
Berry was continued The court ad-
jOurned to August 81
The notorious case growing out OF
the Dewey-BeTry tragedy, which hap
pened in Cheyenne county about two
years ago. and for which Chauncey
Dewey and his cowboys were tried
for murder IN the district court OF
Norton county, resulting in an ac-
buried by the efforts OF Colonel 1.
W. Colby in securing the compromise
judgments above stated.
The petitions OF the Berry widows
and Of Roy Berry asked for damages
aggregating $4,000, all Of which
have been settled for the modest sum
Of 10000 This practically means that
the Deweys have put an end to their
trouble by the use Of money. And
since the poor Berry people seem to
have failed in their struggle to con-
vict the Deweys Of murder. they have
been fatigued into settling the cases
by accepting damages for injury. and
the loss Of their husbands lives
No returning sounds Of prosecution
are expected henceforth in the halls
of justice in the Berry killings.

FOUR GRADES OF WHEAT.
8ITIers Meet State Board and Estab-
Ish Grades for the Year.

8IIIIers Meet State Board and Estab-
Iish Grades for the Year.
MiIIers and men who are interested
in the handling OF wheat from all
over the state were at Topeka last
week to attend the meeting OF the
board appointed by the governor to
establish the grades Of wheat for the
year The grading differs in several
particulars from the grading Of last
year. There Will be four grades Of
wheat this season. No. I wheat must
weigh so pounds or more to the bush
el, must be sound, sweet and absOlu-
teIy free from rye. No 2 wheat must
weigh SO pounds to the busheI and
be sound, sweet and Of good color No
must weigh between sc and IS
pounds to the bushel and be sound
and sweet All wheat which is sound
sweet and dry that weighs less than
So pounds to the busheI will be grad
ed No. 4. Any damp, tough wheat
which is not ut to be graded No 4
viii be rejected One OF the most i'm
pOrtant changes in this years grading
is that no wheat which has been
secured or clipped or which has the
clipped will be graded above No. g.
This Will make a great difference to
the mills. In the past it has been
the custom OF some country elevators
to put wheat from the farmers for
No 2 or No. 3 and after securing it
sell it to the mills for a higher grade.

BIG CREAM BUSINESS.

Bartholomew & Jayne Paid Out
S1,661.2S for Month OF June.
That the readers Of this paper may
appreciate the great volume Of dairy
business done in Sherman county, one
item IS here given to illustrate:
Bartholomew & jayne, who buy
and ship cream for an outside con-
concern, report that from June II to
July 1 3, twenty-nine days, they paid
out cash for cream to the amount OF
S1,161-28 That means that II their
cream business should continue
equally as good throughout the year.
it would amount to approximately
$4,000 annually.
Considering the income Of a lively
dairyman, combined with the agrf-
cultural successes which are being
achieved nearly every year, the lot Of
the Sherman county farmer, 1t seems
to US, is a particularly favorable one.
