CALF" JOHNSON WINS AGAIN.
An Interesting Suit Growing Out Of
the Jones County Calf Case.

Anamosa. Iowa, May 24.-Robert
johnson, commonly known as Calf"
Johnson, and the man that made Jones
county famous. won another legal VIC
tory in the district court OF Jones
county In case which was the out
growth of the famous Jones county
calf case, in which Johnson was the
chief actor. During the time of his
trouble in his calf case he borrowed
money from his brother-in- law, Jacob
SaMms, wealthy Rome township
farmer, paying him 10 per cent inter-
est which was regularly compounded
and always every cent exacted. 1t APP
pears that In 1877 Johnson gave Saums
a note drawing ten per cent interest as
collateral security for his signing
stay bond, which note was renewed
and the Judgment for which the bond
was given was finally paid by john
son, but the note was not surrendered.
johnson also has a settlement with
Saums, but this surety note was never
considered.
an 1898, when horses were selling for
almost nothing. Johnson bought
blooded trottins mare at a horse sale
in Chicago for the sum of only $50
and shipped her to his home In Jones
county. Jacob Sauins took a fancy to
this mare and bought her for the sum
Of $40, but when he went to pay for
the horse, Saums sprung this note on
johnson, which then amounted to
about $3.50, and after much dispute
Johnson gave him the horse for the
note. Some years later, after Mr..
johnson had been able to buy little
home in Anamosa, Saums levied on his
home by virtue of an old judgment
nineteen years old which had been paid
but not cancelled. which levy Johnson
stopped by q temporary injunction,
which was made permanent upon final
hearing In this injunction suit it was
discovered that Johnson had paid
Saulns twice for that same note, and
Immediately brought suit against
Saums to recover, but the lower court
defeated him by sustaining a demurrer.
Johnson not being satisfied with the
ruling of the district court, appealed
the case to the supreme court, which
reversed the case and sent 1t back for
a new trial. The second trial was
heard at this term of court before Hon,
j. H. Preston, both parties having
waived a jury. After two days trial
Judge Preston Immediately decided
that johnson had paid this note twice
and entered Judgment against Saums
in the sum of s476 and interest at 10
per cent from the time suit was COM
menced some three years ago, making
a total of about $500.
Mr.. johnson is much pleased over his
victory, as the sentiment connected
with the caes is of as much value to
him as the judgment. Mr.. Johnson has
the distinction of never having lost a
law suit, although many times defeated
in the lower courts.

tanned In the engine room. The loss to
the Nicola company lis estimated at
1880, which is partially covered by

fortunately the wind blew the sparks
away from the business part of town,
and no other loss was sustained.

squaw in Woman's oarb.

Soon after the United States had ac-
quired the territory OF New Mexico
the people residing in the Rio Grande
valley demanded protection against
the raids Of Navajo Indians from their
strongholds In the Arizona mountains.
In response to this appeal a strong
military force was established upon
the great trail leading from Canyon
Bonito to the Rio Grande, with the
view Of intercepting raiding parties
using this natural highway between
the mountains. The Indians were
greatly offended at the coming of the
troops, and quickly gave expression
to their unfriendly feelings against
them. An open rupture finally oc-
CURED, and the entire tribe at once
went on the warpath. The struggle
lasted nearly year and ended at last
in the capture of the greater portion
Of the tribe in Canyon de Chiefly A
dozen or more families, however, sue

was made, and for many years there
after lived in hiding in the mountain.
valleys and canyons of eastern Ari-
iona. Eventually few years ago
half dozen young warriors from these
families, accompanied by their squaws,
made their appearance at Fort Win
gate, to offer their submission to the
government. 3N
They remained for several days at
the fort after the official pow-wow was
over, living meanwhile on the food
furnished them by the government.
Possibly only a single individual
among them had ever seen a white
man, and the others now for the first
time gazed in amazement into the
white faces about them.
The interest of the warriors was
especially centered in the weapons car
ried by the troops, and for hours at a
time they stood eagerly watching the
men at target practice. However,
nothing that happened within view
Of the visitors, whether on the tar
get grounds or elsewhere, failed to
attract their attention and to elicit ia
world of questions. One of the war
riors was greatly troubled the mean
while with nasal catarrh, and on one
occasion after blowing his nose noisi-
ly through his fingers, observed a SOL
der similarly afflicted using his hand

Strange as it may seem, the warriors
took little interest in the women of
the garrison. The squaws, however,
spent much Of their time in watching
their white sisters, wondering appar-
emily at their appearance and dress.
Such things as bustles and corsets and
high-heeled shoes and hour glass
