District Court Comes Monday.

District court will be convened by
Judge A. A. Welch in Madison Mon.
day afternoon. The court will spend
the first three days of the week in
Madison, giving attention wholly to
equity cases Thursday Judge WEIGH
goes to Neigh, where he will finish up
court term there.
The following Monday Judge WEIGH
returns to Madison to take up jury
cases. A upmber of important cases
will probably be heard, although
nothing sensational is in sight on the
court docket.
An even hundred cases are on the
docket for trial, though of course
many of these cases will never be
touched.
Three criminal cases are listed, the
case against Chris Jensen, the charge
against Mrs. Barnhart for shooting
her husband, and the case against
Eugene Il. King. The latter is a
justice court case from Newman
Grove. The prosecution expects to
have the Lenser case called for trial
Eighteen of the 100 cases are di-
vorce cases. Most of them are from
Norfolk. This does not represent the
real proportion of divorce cases be-
cause these cases stay on the docket
shorter time than most cases, u.s.
ually meeting with no opposition.
Thus among the cases which run over
from one term to another are to be
seen very few divorce cases.
The city of Norfolk is interested in
the Herrick suit and two or three
sidewalk damage suits.

An important case to be tried dur
ing the special term in Gregory coun-

name as Johnson, is the defendant
Together with a companion, Johnson
was charged with having stolen val
liable team of horses from S. A. Hill,
Gregory county farmer The two
men were arrested but made their
escape. They were recaptured in Ly-
man county, but again made their
escape and in a running fight with
Sheriff Sam Sheldon of Lyman coun
ty, the companion of Johnson was
shot and killed. The identity of the
dead man never has been established.
If Johnson knows who he was he re-

II is believed the dead man came from
wealthy and highly respected family
in the east.

Mr.. Post, who took so creditable
part in the battle on the Washita. and
in the pursuit of the Indians which
followed II, is now a lawyer at Mon
owl, and owns fine farm nearby.
He has been employed by the govern
ment in strengthening out Indian
TITLES, and at present is engaged on
a Ponca title which required a trip
to Oklahoma.
The entire ponca tribe was re-
moved by the government over forty
years ago from the Niobrara country
which they inhabited, to reserva-
ton in the Indian territory. Three
hundred of them, pining for their
native haunts, hiked back, the gov
ernment afterwards giving them
reservation near Niobrara, Neb.
Indian Titles Valuable.
Formerly when Indian lands were
not of much value, but little atten-
ton was given to titles. But the
advent of the white men has made
allotted Indian lands valuable, and
the Indians themselves are eager to
get straight titles to lands in which
they claim an inheritance.
