The following spring poem is respect
fully dedicated to II r. b., the Kalama
zoo Gazette CLINT" man:
o. Mistress Mays hckle jade,
A sly, a coy, deceiving maid
One day she says that summers here,
And wears a smile from ear TO ear"
In hmsy garb she smiles and coos
And shows 10 us her peekaboos,
And makes us long for cooling shades.
For purhng streams and summer glades.
Next day she wears a wintry frown,
And clothes herself in fur-trimmed gown,
And wakes old Winter from his nap,
And says, "AgaIn sit in my lap"
She ieers at MS because wekick,
And scold and growl o. May, be quick
And send him off again, once more
And bring bright sunshine TO our door.
We're tired of cold, and sleet and snow,
We wish you would not act up So
And if again us you'll smile,
To welcome you, Wen doh our tile
Again "Be tckled half TO death
If WE may feel your balmy BREATH,
Well give our hand, our heart, you bet
But we II not take EN-, oft NOT YET.

10 1904 aud this is petition for modiii-
cation of the decree a. TO the amount OF
alimony and as to custody OF their minor
child, daughter of the age of l3 years.
AS to the question Of alimony, $500,
the court says that as this sun was
agreed upon aud is in lieu of all in
terest the wife had in the property of
the husband, and no fraud or wrong be-
ing alleged or proved as to the original
decree, cit must be assumed that the
award was in every way correct and
proper
The court finds in relation to the Gus
tody Of the child, among other things,
as follows:
mo complaint is made, or il made it
has not been sustained, that the mother
is not suitable person at his time to
have the care of her daughter, or that
she has failed or is likely to fail from
want of affection, judgment or proper
department, IN the duty which the rela-
tons call for Indeed the demeanor and.
conduct of the child on the wituess
stand, IN the court room and in private
conversation with the court have all im-
pressed me that the teachings given the
child, the environments with which she
has been surrounded have been correct
and to be commended for rarely has it
been my experience to find child of her
years more intelligent, refined and pure
in heart
1T is but just that should here add
that no reflection can. be made against
the father, who is good citizen and en-
titled to consideration by the court"
81 cannot. however, agree with the
contention of the petitioner that case
has been made out to warrant any revis-
ion of the first decree and therefore find
that the petition should be denied"

JUDGE DES vO|GNEs' OPINIONS
Causes Heretofore Tried in
the Circuit Court:

In the case of The Lansing State
Savings bank VS.. f.. J. Harrington The
complainant is judgment creditor of
the defendant and filed a bill of com
plant, seeking to reach 40 acres of land :,
the title to which is Jointly in the de-
PENDANT and his wife, Bertha Harrington,
alleging that certain conveyance made
by the defendant to one Earl Burhans
and by Burhans to defendant and wife
jointly, with the right of survivorship,
was voluntary conveyance and void as
to creditors. The court finds that de-
PENDANTS wife let her husband have
about $500 of her own money, earned by
her services as postoffice clerk, with the
express understanding that she should
be secured by an interest in the lands in
question. The opinion is quite lengthy,
but among other things the court says:
The evidence dscoses that the de-
PENDANT has turned over to his creditors
all his property save the land in ques-
ton. In fact, it appears that in 1905
and after this deed was executed, de-
PENDANT paid creditors over $1,000.
There was nothing in his conduct show
ing fraud or disregard of the financial
obligations due his creditors"
The court finds that the conveyances in
question were not voluntary deed from
husband to wife without valuable con-
sideration. The opinion ends as follows:
"The bill of complaint is therefore
dismissed with costs to defendant and
decree may be settled accordingly"
Anderson & Warner were solicitors for
complainant and T. j. Cavanaugh for
defendant.
In the matter of the motion for a new
trial in the case of Charles Mestler VS..
Robertson Jeffries the court finds no
error and the motion was denied. This
matter related to the purchase of farm
by the plaintiff of the defendant and
was an action on the case to recover
damages for alleged fraud and msrep-
resentation as to condition Of fruit trees
growing on the place. The case has
been twice tried in the circuit court
On the first trial plaintiff recovered judg-
ment for 1920 On an appeal to the
supreme court the case was reversed and
a new trial ordered. At the last trial
the jury rendered a verdict IN favor OF
the defendant and a judgment was en-.
tered accordingly.
I. j. Cavanaugh appeared for plaintiff
Anderson IL Warner for defendant.
In the case Of Leander Simmons vs.
Byron G.. Day, an injunction bill filed to
restrain the defendant from cutting and
removing timber from a certain piece OF
land on Section No. 3 of Pine Grove. the
court finds that the damages alleged are
less than 800 and that for that reason
the complainant cannot maintain his
action IN court OF equity. The court,
/ however, in its opinion, goes further and
settles the case on its merits by finding,
in effect, that the defendant is the equit.
