SEEK MISSING MAN
Police are Asked to Search for James
lsetts Who Disappeared Friday


The police of the city have been
asked to make a search for James
Isetts, man twenty-five years Of
age, who has been missing from the
city since last Friday. He left a wife
and one child behind, and this morn
iKr Mrs. Isetts and the baby APP

for the aid of the officials. Il is
thought possible that Isetts may be ia

have been asked to make an effort to

Isetts is said to have particularly

counted for. Thus far the police
have not been able to get any trace
of the missing man.

Celebrating the Hudson Rlv


The plans for the so called Hudson
Fulton celebration two years hence
have been submitted, and it is evident
that the Hudson river, not its discover
er nor the first exploiter of steamships,
is to be the center of the celebration.
Festivities which are imposing and adj
equate for the purpose are to extend
over eight days, from Sept. is to Sept
26, 1909 This period includes the date
of Hudson's halt on the up trip and his
return downstream, Sept 10 and %
respectively
Fulton's celebrated trip up the Hud-
son in the pioneer steamboat Cler-
mont took place Aug. II, 1907, and this
event is brought into the celebration
Of 1909 for convenience. In the great
water parade, which will close the cere-
monies, models of Hudson's ship, the
Half Moon, and of the Clermont will
be escorted up the river. Thus the
names and the deeds Of these two will
be linked with the river which the des-
tiny of civilization would have made
historic had neither Hudson nor Fulton
ever sailed upon its waters. However,
their names are inseparably associated
with the river, and it is fitting that
they be linked In the manner proposed
In the programme Of the celebration.

SUES BECAUSE
HE LOST SUIT
ANGRY CARPENTER ON TRAIL
OF HOODOO
Attempts by Law Proceedings to Dis
cover Who Was to Blame for
What He Feels Is a Mis-
carriage of Justice

A. Z. Smith, a carpenter, yesterday
reversed the usual order of court pro-
ceedure to such an extent as to turn
about and sue attorneys, clerks of the
court, deputies, and, in fact, everyone
but Judge Trask because last summer
he lost a suit on mechanics lien
amounting to $3.50.
Yesterday the unique suit made it's
appearance. In 1t Smith alleged he
had performed carpenter service on a
house in the Coulter tract last spring
and that he had not received wages.
He then brought suit and at that time
the strangest things possible began to
occur. Smith asked $3.50 for me-
chanics lien and he went to the house
and posted the notices on the front door,
Notices Again Disappear
This was in accordance with law, but
someone went to the house that night
and not in accordance with law took
down the signs of the suit. When Smith
discovered that he posted more notices,
but when he returned to the house a
few moments later the signs had again
disappeared and to his own knowledge
there was no one alb, 1t the building.
That bewildered him, but the series
of accidents had even got a good
start then. His case in court began to
appear on the thirteenth day of the
month. Then it was switched and set
for the thirteenh of the next month,
and by that time some of his witnesses
had disappeared.
Then to add insult to injury his case
came up for hearing in department
four of the superior court of July 81 of
last year, and Smith, failing to appear
the case was defaulted and thrown out
OF court.
When Smith began to ask questions
about it he found that he no longer had
any suit in court. Then he began to
investigate and alleges that he doesn't
know why he wasn't notified about the
case. He wants to know.
Tracing His Hoodoo
Although he will now have been fight
ing just about a year at a good sized
expense to find out what his rights are
he wants to find out all the reasons
why his hoodoo pursued him so relent-
lessly.
He has brought suit against c. o.
Winters, deputy county clerk, to find
out why certain papers were not
served and why he wasn't notified of
the day when his case was to appear.
He also has named the owners of the
property as defendants to find out how
the notices happened to disappear from
the premises and he has named a we'll
known firm of attorneys as defendants
to his suit to find out some more about
his hoodoo.
When the $3.50 comes up for trial it
will probably prove interesting, since
Smith is determined TO spare no expense
to trail down the streak of bad luck
that followed him so persistently.

Iowans Invest Here.

A party of fourteen Iowans we're
in Greeley last week looking over
the country about the new town Of
Gilcrest. several of them investing.
The party was piloted by VanScoy &
Johns, real estate dealers at Wood
bine, Ia, and among the others who
came were j. B. Adams, who pur-
chased 100 acres of land near the new
town; John Boise and George Tucker,
who will start a hardware store
there; L. w. White, editor of the
Woodbine Chronicle; w. d. Ben
nett, W. B. Dunn, N. G. Gibson,

or three others. Several other Iowa
people have bought land and city

two or three weeks.

Bartel's Reservoir Breaks.

The dam of the Bartel reservoir, a
small private lake that lies on the
divide between Greeley and Evans,
broke last Sunday and let all the
water on to the flats north of Evans.
Two or three houses in the north
part of Evans we're surrounded with
water but no damage done, except to
the reservoir dam. 1t is supposed
that muskrats had made holes in
the embankment, which gave the
water chance to work through.
The reservoir was used for irrigat-
ing a small portion of land lying
east of the Evans road, and in the
winter time to supply ice to Evans.
There will be a little loss on this
account as it was the nearest place
to Evans where supply of ice could
be secured.
