DISTRICT COURT RECORD.
Several Minor Matters Arc Disposed
of Bv JUDGE Parker.

OF oy Vuo30 0tNOSs
Most of Judge Parker's time in dis
trict court this morning was taken up
In listening to the case of Roland H..
Isirks VS.. his married daughters, Ellie
Dunlap and Phoebe Schofield, which
aims to set aside two deeds which
were made out to these daughters CIV
ing them each forty acres OF land "
ing about nine miles, south OF Mar
,sialltown. The deeds were executed In
January. 1901.
The contention Of the plaintiff Is that
at the time he executed the deeds he
was not in his right condition of mind.
The defense is making a point of the
fact that his wife, Mrs Surelda Birks,
made an effort in that year to have the
district court in Marshall county APP
point a guardian for Birks on the
ground that he was spending his money
too rapidly and indulging in excessive
drink, and that Judge Obed Caswel,
who was then living and presiding over
the proceedings, judicially decreed in
July, 1901, that Birks was sane, refus-
ing the guardianship.
Subsequently Birks sued for divorce
but 1t was not granted. Then he moved
to Oregon, where he now makes his
home. sued for divorce there, got it,
and remarked.
Judge Parker granted one divorce
Thursday and one today Thursday
Carrie Price the plaintiff, was granted
legal separation from J. M Price, while
this morning the court decreed that
the marriage between Julia Gertrude
Clark and John Clark be annulled, on
petition of the wife.
In the case of E. P. Thompson and
Martin Carter VS.. Fred. Ahrens ct al.
the plaintiffs were permitted to dismiss
their cases against the town of State
Center and Robert S. Gowdy without
prejudice.

Mayor Finally Lands Specimen TO
Fins Demonstration at County Fair


Mayor o. l.. Ingledue got a fne
specimen OF tubercular pig yesterday
for the exhibit Of infected stock at the
Marshall county fair. The specimen
was obtained from the Wilcox farm at
Linn Valley where Ave out Of nine
cows were condemned as infected and
placed in quarantine.
DR., Paul O.. Koto,l the state veter-
marian, was here and paid visit TO
the farm with the mayor in the hope
of Inducing the farmer to part win
one OF his infected cows. The mayor
offered him cent a pound for the five
cattle and $25 besides. but the offer
was refused. The pound price Is that
paid by packers for Infected cattle,
from which the hides can be taken for
tanning, and parts Of the body used
for fertilizing purposes
Err. Koto then suggested that they
get pig from the farm and test 1t Tor
the purpose, as a number OF pigs had
been drinking the milk OF the infected
cows and following them around. A
sixty-pound pig was found to be In
fected with the tuberculosis and when
killed and dissected its liver was
found to be a mass OF Infection, the
bowels and liver and region about the
ribs being badly diseased.
"Marshalltown Is to be congratulated
on the advanced ground it has reached
in this matter and the agitation that Is
going on here" said the state veter-
marian. "There are very few parts OF
the state which are taking the interest
that this region Is in the question OF
infected stock, and the demonstration
al the fair is very good and bene-
fetal thing"

WINS MANY PRIZES
z. e. Shelter, Poland China Breeder.
Gets Six Out Of the Eleven Ribbons
in Poland China Class At the Fair
Seventeen Exhibits.

One Of the happiest exhibitors on
the grounds today is F. e. Shelter, the
Poland China breeder. who practically
cleaned up the platter in the matter
Of prizes In the Poland China class.
He has q right to feel proud OF his
achievement, when one considers that
In the strongest class ever shown at
t.. fair, including as 1t did seventeen
e1 3.ibitors, he won six Of the possible
eleven ribbons. This has never before
been accomplished by an exhibitor ct
the fair. so far as any one knows. Mr..
Shelter won the following prixesss2 ~
Sweepstakes on three gifts and boar
under months.
Sweepstakes on Ave pigs under s
months.
First on boar under 8 months.
First on pair under 8 months.
Third on pair under s months. ~
Third on gilt under months
He also exhibited BILLY Bryan" the
sire OF his show herd, and he was
pronounced by many OF the best
breeders on the ground as the finest
they had ever seen. The judge could
not award the prize, however, owing
to the fact that this pig was a trihe
down on his front feet from early fit
ting. He is said, however, to be the
equal Of any pig in his class anywhere.
He Is better than a 900 pound pig, all
most ten-inch bone, and was a year
old the third Of last March.
{ ,Mr. Shelter has made a. study OF
the business OF breeding in fine hogs
and his success here is natural re-
suit. In county that numbers 80
many experts In the line and in 2
county which has so many finely bred
Poland 'Chinas his success at the fair

COMPARISON ATTENDANCE.

Thursday brought the high tide In
attendance at the county fair, the to-
tai number of persons on the grounds
during the day exceeding the same day
TOR last year by 1874 The total attend
ance Thursday was $3.50. compared
with s,135 for the same day OF the
year before. The paid admissions, how
ever, fell under Thursday of last year,
by just fifty. Yesterdays paid adj
missions totaled 1889, compared with
F7,43s for the year before.
The increase in the total attendance
Is due to the fact that more tickets
were furnished to exhibitors, employees
and those having concessions and their
helpers than the year before. The total
gate and amphitheater receipts yester-
day were $2,100.so, compared with $2,-
1905 for the year before.
Attendance and Receipts Increase.
Both the total attendance and the
gate and amphitheater receipts for the
three days, up to today. show an In
crease. Last years attendance for the
same days was 17,442. This year the
attendance for the same days was 49,
45S, gain OF 2,016. The gate and am
phitlfeater receipts for the same days
last year were $4.379.45. This year they
aggregated $4,632.60. a gain OF $25315
Today is the closing day Of the fair,
and as Is always expected, the attend
ance was not so large as either We'd
nesday or Thursday. Today the chtl
dren were admitted free, and they will
swell the crowd greatly.
