The case of S. S. Rogers against
Crawford county was called for trial
before jury on Tuesday afternoon
and the jury was selected, impanneled
and sworn this forenoon to try the
case. 1t is case in which the
amount of damages which Mr.. Rogers
farm will sustain by reason of the
construction of the Boyer river from
Arion to Dunlap is involved. The
board allowed as damages $500, and
Mr.. Rogers, not being satisfied with
it, appealed to the district court,
where the trial will settle the amount
he should receive.
The case of Rudd versus Dewey,
tried here several times and appealed
to the supreme court and reversed,
was settled, the parties having agreed
upon an amount satisfactory to both
parties. The case was dismissed by
the court at the cost of the plaintiff,
in pursuance of the agreement by the
parties.
The case of Wendt versus Voss and
others, which is suit to set aside the
probate of will made by Henrietta
Rath, was continued on account Of
the sickness of the defendant. The
case was specially assigned as the Sec
ond jury case for next term, when it
is expected it will be finally disposed
Of
There are several other cases on
the calendar for trial, but few of
which can be tried at this term. A
great deal of business has been dis
patched by the court since it first
convened.

It was summer time and I paid him

"Well, yes, when the season was

slow in growing. But ordinarily
my corn would be between 300 and
400 feet high, and the stalks from six
to nine feet in diameter at the base.
We cut 1t with axes. The ears were
generally about the size of large
lobster. There was a man over on
one of the islands, named Smith, who
used to raise one turnip year, and
that was enough, because single
turnip would cover three-quarters of
an acre. But one good growing sea-
son Smiths turnip grew so fearfully
that it covered the entire island, and
Smith had to move off and go up on
the side of volcano back of his place,

Sunk the entire island, and that

that the whole thing exploded, and
Smith was blown GO miles out to sea

Francisco ship. He told a friend OF
mine that that was the last turnip he
would ever raise.

vea1s Character of Show

The Gollmar Bros. shows
/ which exhibits in Ellis
SATURDAY,, SEPT. 10 1910,
features everything connected
with it, from the street parade to
the concert. The press of other
cities have made only the most
favorable comment for Gollmar
Bros. parade. Even when the
show visits territory where it
has never been, its magnificent
street pageant so agreeably sur
prises the public that they are
sure to crowd the immense
tents.
It is in the parade that the
management of circus can show
to good advantage the stability
and character of the aggregation
If it IS cheap concern. giving
only ordinary performances, it's
parade will tell the tale. If it is
really meritoriou the street dis
play will demonstrate the fact.
The splendid equipment of the
great Gollmar Bros. Circus is
shown to great advantage in the
big parade. and is always COM
plimented. The horses are in
fine trim and the tableaux. dens.
wagons, cages and charlots are
reSplendentle decorated with
costly carvings. gilt and varnish.
An unusually large number of
dens are open in the parade. and
the general public is given a free
exhibition of fine array of wild
animals. All in all, it is pro-
nounced by many. the finest and
best circus display ever seen
upon any streets. But it is in
the circus performance that the
show eXcelS.
The parade will start from the
lot at 10 O'Clock sharp. and
traverse the principal streets.
