That was the statement of Mrs. r.
B. Farnham, sister Of Mrs. Patterson,
last night on her return from Sandoval.
where her sister is recuperating after
the strain of her long trial.
1.-THE story that my sister and Mr..
Strouss will be married Is lie" was
the emphatic statement. "The reports
of the relations between my sister and
that man are garbled and false. she
has seen him for the last time. The
family does not want to see him and
we would not permit Mrs. Patterson
to see him even If she wanted to.

"The story that he paid the ex-
penses Of the trial is not true either.
The family stood by her as we should
have done Strouss ks out of her life

entered it.
"Mrs Patterson will remain in San
doval. where the people still believe in
her. The trial has been terrible

It was reported on the train that Mrs.
.Farnham was Mrs Patterson. and
when she entered the dining car she
became the cynosure of all eyes Ac-
customed as she was during the trial
to be constantly gazed at she arose In
confusion and sought corner in the
chair car and sat looking out OF the
window, to avoid being pointed out as
the principal figure in Denver's recent
sensational trial.

Some months ago public highway
was established, worked and travelled
by the people of the Ogallah neigh
borhood which highway runs north
from the cemetery at that place. At
one point this road extends between
two tracts of land belonging to John
Nelson, who lives near it and who
claims that the road is not on the
section line, and in support of his
claim or to show his diSpleaSure he
has been stretching barb wire and
digging trenches across the road to
the great inconvenience of the tray
cling public and even endangering
life and limb. Last fall restraining
order was issued requiring him to de-
sist and place no further distractions
across the road. He continued to do
as before though the distractions
were removed again and again by or
der of the township authorities on
the continued complaints of the peo-
pie Of the neighborhood. Last week
atfidavits were filed in the district
court and Mr.. Nelson was brought
before the court upon the accusation
Of the county attorney on behalf of
the state of Kansas. In court, upon
examination of the judge and attor-
ney, he admitted his guilt; refused to
discontinue his unlawful acts; refused
to call witnesses in his own behalf;
refused the offer of counsel. Upon
this admission he was found guilty of
contempt, fined S25 and costs, and re-
quired to file bond in the SUM of
5000, conditioned upon his obedience
to the order of the court, and commit
ted to the custody of the sheriff I'M
til he complied, and the fine of S25
was to be remitted so long as he
should obey orders and complied with
the requirements. All this he obsti
nately refused to do, after the man
ner of John Dietz and Adam God.
This was last Tuesday. One night
in the cooler apparently convinced
him of the error of his ways. His
wife came to town Wednesday and
was even more obstinate and abusive
Of the powers that be. However up
on the advice of friends, she relented.
They paid the costs, five dollars, pro-
vided the bond required, promised to
obey the orders of the court, and
went home apparently convinced of
the error of their ways. All this ac
tion was had before the Probate
Judge, the judge of the district court
being absent from the county. We
feel sure that no one wishes to impose
upon this peculiar old couple; it was
a case of emergency; there was ur-
gent need that something be done
for the safety of the public and the
peace and quietude of the neighbor-
hood. All good citizens hope and
will be glad to know that the con-
troyerSy is settled
