The Chevy Chase Land Company has in
stituted proceedings in the circuit court at
this place to prevent Peter J. Conrad. from
using as residence building he erected
at Chevy Chase. this county. Judge John
C. Motter has granted temporary injunc-
ton and has allowed Conrad certain time
in which to show cause why the injunction
should not be made permanent.
The bill filed in the case alleges that the
Chevy Chase company sold lot to Conrad
in August. 1907, with the understanding
that he would not erect residence to cost
less than $4,000. but that in the following
year he did erect building, which he
used as a residence, that cost very much
less, and on that ground the injunction is
asked.
The Chevy Chase company is represent
ed by Attorney Edward c. Peter.

alleged DEAD MAN ALIVE
, Aberdeen Man Reappeared After
II Was Supposed That He Had
Died Ten Years Ago.

The grand lodge of the A. o. u. w.
of this state has a problem on its
hams to try and recover the insur-
ante which it paid on the life of
H,ary Christopher. of Brown county,
WHO is supposed to have died ten
yeals ago. and who has just made
his temperance, at Aberdeen.
Along in 1883 Christopher was
employed in a store at Columbia by
j. u. LAWN, until recently the re-
corder for the Workmen Of the state.
and at that time took out a policy in
the order. Some years later Chris
topher and his family moved out to
California and made their home for
a t=rm Of years. In 1899 Christopher
disappeared and though search was
maze for him his wife gave him up
for dead. She endeavored to collect
the policy on his life. but it was not
until 1907 that she was able to do
SO. and then after three courts had
passed on the question Of the death
Of her husband. and then the order
paid the policy.
The temperance Of Christopher
has started proceedings on the part
Of the grand lodge to try and get
the amount Of the policy back from
the relatives. At Aberdeen it Il not
believed that the relatives have tried
to defraud the order and it is be-
lieved that they acted wholly In good
faith. When Christopher came back
among his friends he offered no ex-
PLANTATION as to. his disappearance OF
where he has been all these years.

of the church and congregation had
contributed to a fund and purchased
a complete set Of the works Of

was surprised to a marked extent in
being thus happily remembered by
his members. and he responded to
the gift in a very kindly manner.
The Christmas exercises of the
Methodist church were held in the
basement, and it was crowded to its
utmost capacity with the children
of the Sunday school and members
