N AN DAN
Will TEST TITLES
MANDAN PARTIES WILL TRY, VA.
LIDITY OF, RAMHARTER
TITLES &

Suit has been brought byH. L. Cary
against A. F. Ramharter and R. H.
Proudfoot for the purpose of quieting
title to some lots in Mandan. This
will be a test case as to the validity
of what is generally known as the
Ramharter tax titles. 1t is claimed
that at the time the tax interests of
he couny were sold Ramharter it
was sold in a lump and for a small
consideration. 1t is the general opin-
ion that the Ramharter titles are
worthless and if the titles should be
set aside it would mean the addition
of considerable to the county funds
and would be beneficial to the tax
payers. AS there is a number of lots
in town covered by the Rangharter
tax deeds it will be of interest to
those who have invested to know
where they stand.

The American Abroad.

On one of my visits to England
spent much tir1e in studying and adj
miring York cathedral. On one Of my
visits to the grand old structure a fell
low countryman came in with rush
twenty minutes before service and
tackled the verger, sedate and digni-
fed specimen, with "Can / see the ca
thedral at once, please" The verger
explained slowly and courteously that
the service would begin in twenty min
utes; that it took three times as long
as that to show anybody round the ca
thedral; that no one could be shown
around during service and that after
service the cathedral would be closed
for the day as far as sightseeing went.
"Oh, but | don't want to spend an
hour or even half an hour in going
around. l just want to hurry through"
said the visitor. "Ten minutes is quite.
enough. My train leaves for London
in twenty-seven minutes consulting
his watch rervously, "and l must see
the cathedral and go. SO please show
me oer in ten minutes and be done
with it,"
The verger looked at him with a
calm British amaZement not to be for
gotten. Sir" he said, running is not
allowed In this cathedral. Outlook.

Dodgeville Sun-Republic: County
clerk r. E. Gribble was bitten last
Wednesday by pet Angora cat be-
longing to neigh5or. He paid no
attention to the injury until his hand
began to swell and steps we're taken
to prevent blood-poisoning. The in
jury was very painful for several
days, but is now improving rapidly.
Mr.. Gribble says he was stroking
the feline's fur the right way" when
she fastened her fangs in the feshy
part of his hand near the little finger,
puncturing the skin in six places
