Board Of Trustees OF Sugar City to
draw and pay warrant In satisfac.
tion OF Judgment for damages

The Judgment was taken before II.
|. Olmstcad, then Justice OF tn
Peace. OF the Ordway precinct. and
the defendants In the mandate pro-
ceedings raised the question that a
Judgment rendered by a Justice Of the
peace against an Incorporated town
was void for want OF Jurisdiction, and
Judge Essex sustained the contention
and held that the Judgment was absO-
lutely void and can not be enforced
1t Is now left for Mr.. Hosler to either
appeal to the Supreme Court or dis
miss and file suit .On the original
cause of action In court Of records.

him with Dr. Kings New Discovery,

This wonderful medicine soon relieved
and quickly cured his neighbor. Lat
er 1t cured his sons wife Of a severe
lung trouble. Millions believe Its the

"PIPE OF PEACE" RESTORED.
Graduates Of Colby College Are This
Year Enabled to Continue Old
and honored Practice.

When the class OF 1869 left Colby
they introduced a custom which lasted
until 1903. with all the succeeding
classes. says the Lewistown Journal.
This custom was that OF smoking on
commencement day n pipe. which was
kept at the college for this purpose.
and on this eventful day in the lives
OF the graduates they all took smoke
from the pipe. whether they had
ever smoked before or not. The 80
called pipe OF Peace" was an i'm
mense pipe with a stem two feet long
and a bowl with human face en-
graved upon 1t In the front. while
around the sides were found many
other profiles. This wonderful pipe
remained at the college for forty odd
years and was smoked by every man
who graduated during that time. but
in 1903 1t mysteriously disappeared.
and was not heard from until the
past week. when It was returned to
the college. With the disappearance
OF the pipe the custom disappeared.
and thus the classes since 1903 have
net had the privilege OF smoking q
pipe OF peace" Now, however. that
the pipe is safely back at the college.
and is being watched over by Dr. Hall
at the library. 1t Is very probable that
and that the class Of 1909 will on COM
mencement day of this year be seen
putting away at this valuable old relic.

BEAUTY AND FORTUNE FLED.
Three Women to Whom Life Has
Been More Than Ordinarily
Cold and Cruel.

Once they had all the honors which
beauty and fortune could attain. To-
lay they are cruelty disenchantei.
One Is the Russian Countess Pavioy-
m I.avetsky. She was received nt
the court OF ST. Petersburg. Her hus-
band had castles. hundreds of serfs.
millions OF rubles. She had more
Jewels than the wife OF maharajah.
Hut the count, an ardent soul, Joined
hands with the revolutionists. I'm.
plicated in the Riga affair he was
shot. His possessions were coniiscat-
ed.
The countess fed. She found ref
uge In Geneva. Soon the little money
she had brought with her was gone.
She sold her jewels and found herself
empty-handed. Then. courageously.
she accepted humble position in
cafe. She is there to-day waiting up
on the patrons.
Another Is the countess OF Beau
clerc. who few years ago at Rome
Inspired Prince Victor with love.
We're they married? She says so. tho
prince denies 1t. Their child hal for
its godmother Queen Marguerite. who
gave It her name. The prince went
To Brussels to forget his Roman ad.
ventures. The countess is at Milan.
making hats and doing needlework.
The third Is the baroness OF Grou-
stadt. whose authentic titles go back
to the middle age. She Is a dress
maker In a Partisan workshop. Poor
women! Their romance is more cruel
than those OF the novelIsts.-Le Cri

A Woman Onion Grower.

you may have heard how the Rio
Grande country has put the Bermuda
onion growers out Of business" said
Capt. George H. Darter Of Laredo.
Tex. "Our most successful grower.
by the way. is a lady. Mrs. E. C. Dodd.
who lives in my town. She cultivated
1876 acres this season and made a net
profit on her onion crop Of a little
over $4,000. To make land bring a
gain OF $400 an acre is something few
men have the ability to do. and yet
this lady does not seem to regard her
feat as emitting her to any great
praise.
Mrs. Dodd looks after every detail
of her farm in person. Raising onions
is no child's play: It involves hard
work and great expense in our Sec
ton, where irrigation Is necessary. 1t
II the intention Of Mrs. Dodd to plant
on a still bigger scale as she gradu-
ally brings more Of her land under

Some Observations.

A ne.to-seed hat. a run down pair
of shoes, or badly cracked school or
church bell ought to be replaced with
new ones instanter.
Nothing would be more beneficial
to Ordway than properly constructed
concrete sidewalks all over town.
They are not needed at all times, but
when they are needed they are needed
badly. They cost money, it is true,
and so do high.topped boots and foot
scrapers. The walkin' Is by no means
good In the town just now.
A knocker will, II let alone, knock
himself out completely. Don't try'to
stop his knocking. Let him 20 and
the sooner he knocks himself out OF
the community the better 1t Is for
the place he is in.
A man said the other day that Ord
way Is now large enough to begin to
classify business. He said that the
merchant, banker and other non-pro-
fessional concerns ought to lop or
their side.lines and let those who en-
gage in these have enough out or
them as a distinct and independent
business to enable him to earn living
from the line. When asked what he
meant he replied that he noticed that
many firms which expect patronage
from everybody are engaged In writ
ing insurance, in the real estate busi-
ness and the making Of conveyances'
in connection with their other tbusi-
ness operations. This, perhaps, was a
nacessity when the. town was mere
village, but now 1t Is time to let go OF
these side lines and let them go TO
those who are regularly engaged In
such lines. "Live and let liVe," he
says, sis the correct MOTTO"

Formers PROTECTIVE Association.

A special meeting OF the Bob Creek
Farmers Protective Association Is
called for Saturday, September. 25th
at 2:3O p. III. at the Ppera House.
The commission is very desirous Of
meeting all OF the members. We feel
that we have a right to expect you to
be out The rOusing meetings we
had few months ago has projected
us away out into space and we are
feeling now for our support and want
to know just what and where It Is.
II we have done enough come out and
tell us, II not, be sure and comet out
anyway. Stress of work has been a
reasonable excuse for a long time but
will not be satisfactory this time ~
with this notice we can nearly all ar
range to spare half day for this
cause. We not only ask the members
but every one interested In making
the valley what 1t ought to be, (the
best country In Coloradoh to meet
with US. Hear,about what we are try
Ing to do, and how, and join US or not
as your conscience dictates.
1t is true this has been busy sea-
son. We are harveeting the best
crop the valley has produced In all the
wears have known It. We must first
rive Providence full credit for boun-
tious snow fall, timely showers and
glorious sunshine, then 1t is not a far
cry to say the efforts Of this associa-
tIon has brought about the rest.
Providence has done much for US be-
fore, but adverse conditions has de-
feated 1t. We never have been able
to get near the amount of water per
right that we have year. we never did
have SO long run with 80 few bseaks
| in the canal, there never was as near
a proper division Of the water as this
wear, so that we claim that every cent
so far expended has come back with
interest. .sa
The committee expects to have
something Of interest to report more
than it would be best to discuss here.

The notes in the form Of COM
plants, excuses or advice sent to the
teacher are often more hilariously hu-

school had a delightful note OF this
kind. The teacher had sent the
mother a note explaining to her
that her son Jakey's personal untidi-

to the nostrils. In reply the mother
wrote:
