was erroneous, and this was within
its power that the rights OF the llti-
giant might be protected and also in
justice TO the court as responsible
for the impartial administration OF
the law.
Scott v. Ford, SO Or. 2SS, is cited
by counsel for defendant as control
ling in this case, but in that case
there was no motion by the respon-
dent to set aside the findings, and no
error was committed on the trial as
constituting a basis for an order va
eating verdict. But the order was
made for the purpose of giving the
plaintiff an opportunity to amend hia
pleadings, and 1t is practically con-
ceded in the opinion at page 299 that
the court may set aside the verdict
on its own motion where 1t appears
that it has been imposed upon in an
eX parte proceeding or the verdict
entered through improper or colluslve
agreements, etc, and that the court
would have the power essential to its
protection and that OF the public un-
der such circumstances Estate ex rel
V. Adams, S4 Md. $40, 316), but that
question was not involved here"
The case cited in the above quota
ton says, that IAN error in matter OF
law is one which the court ought to
have the right to correct, at any time
during the term" so that the result
in the case of Scott v. Ford is not
opposed to the conclusion we have
reached in this case. AS said in Hens
ley " Davidson Bros. Co., supra, occa-
sion to do so will seldom arise, and
the power should be exercised only
to prevent a wrong to one of the par
ties by correcting the error or mis-
conduct Of the jury, or an error COM
mitted by the court itself. But so far
as the record discloses, this is a case
within the latter exception. The trial
court concluded that. it gave an err
roneous instruction tehding to mislead
the jury. The order of the court va
eating the judgment and granting
new trial is affirmed.

This is an action on a promissory

alleges the execution of a promissory

tiff, on the 18th day of October, 1910,
payable on demand, for the sum Of
$4,000, with interest and reasonable at
torneys fees in case of suit or action
thereon
The defendants filed an answer to
the complaint, to which the plaintiff
interposed a demurrer which was sus-
tanned by the court Whereupon, by
leave of court, the defendants filed
an amended answer and plea, alleging
in substance as follows That on or
about the 10th day OF November, 1910,

defendants securing the note men
toned in the complaint, and other in
debtedness due from defendant h. c.
Rogers to plaintiff, by a mortgage ex-
ecuted by defendants to plaintiff upon

for payment Of the note mentioned in
the complaint until October 10, 1911;
that defendants executed the mortgage
as desired by PLAINTIFF on or about
November 16, 1910, and delivered the

Only Chinese Will Welcome II
Year Visitation.

New York, Feb. 15.-The seventeen
year locusts. which are due to return
to plague the American farmers this
summer, after being absent since 1894
have made their appearance in the
vicinity of New York City Curator
Ditmars of the New York Geological
society has discovered the first grubs,
several thousand in number, in an ex-
cavation near Nyack, n. Y. BY the
time the frost is out of the ground,
these thousands will be millions. he
says.
In the last previous visitation the
locusts literally covered suburban New
York, stripping trees, bushes, hedges,
lawns and truck farms of everything
green and then, moving in vast clouds,
which obscured the sun, to fresh fields.
The individual locusts lived only a few
days, but each female in that time
found time to lay about five hundred
eggs on the branches of denuded trees
When the larvae had Matched they fell
to the ground and burrowed straight
down for more than a foot
There, it is said. they have rested

as the frost leaves the ground they

at Nyack are said to be completely
formed and ready to come to the sur
face as soon as the earth warns up,

POTTS TO Be HEAD
Unofficial Report Says He Will
Command Ft. LeavenwOrth.
Also, May Be Given Charge OF
Military Prison.

Fort LeaVenworth, Kan. Feb. 10
1t is reported here that an order Will
soon be issued from the war depart
ment placing the post and garrison OF
Fort LeaVenworth under command Oh
Brigadier General Rafsay D. Potts on
the departure of the Thirteenth IN
fantry for the Philippines in March.
General Potts is now commander OF the
military service schools here and 1t IS
intended to combine the two separate
divisions under one head.
1t is also probable that the mlltary
prison will be placed under command
of General Potts, with the same eXecu-
tive officers to run the prison. THIS IS
not fully determined on, as the prison
is run from the quartermaSter general 5
department of the army.
The separate heads have resulted IN
more or less friction for years, although
General Frederick Funston, as COM
lnandant of the schools and Col r. H
r. LOughborOugh. as commander of the
post, had no trouble. Friction bet ~een
separate commanding officers lost the
department of the Missouri headquar-
ters to Fort Leavenworth 20 years ago.
At that time Major General Wesley
Merritt was in command of the depart
ment of the Missouri, with headquarters
in Sherman hall, where a part of the
military schools are located. Col. A.
NJ. McCook, one of the Fighting Nc
Cooks and afterwards a brigadier
general. was in command of the post of
Fort LeavenwOrth and there was con-
slant friction.
A mad dog scare broke out, accom-
panied by an order to shoot all dogs
found on the reservation without
muzzle. A ieutenant's dog without
muzzle was hot down in the owners
yard by the members of the guard.
When the officer made complaint it was
disapproved and the officer reprimanded
by Colonel McCook. An appeal was ia
ken to the department commander,
General Merritt who reversed the ac-
ton of Colonel McCook Thereupon Col.
McCook appealed to the division COM
mander in Chicago and an order wa
issued to transfer the department of
the Missouri headquarters to st. Louis
to avoid future troubles of this kind.
Later the department headquarters
were established at Omaha.

company 1t always suggests a large number
of pretty girls who can sing and a lesser
number of men who perform the same
function. In other words it has always
been considered that an essential of a
Madam Sherry skaters this tradition
The opera is successful one-none can
deny that-but 1t has a chorus of only

all women. There are nine principals and
the II people give this tunefuI opera so
acceptably that it is doubtful if there
was a single person in the big audience
last night who did not pronounce it the
hit of the Topeka theatrical season.
In the early days of its importation OBJ
lection was made that Madam Sherry
was so grossly immoral in its atmosphere
that it was disgrace to the theater but
it has been trimmed and toned down so
that there is little that is objectionable
The opera served to introduce to Topeka
a new face-that of Miss Anna Tasker
In the ingenue role. She is not the orig
inal in that part but she makes the most
of her opportunities, sings divinely and
dances like fairy. Dorothy Morton who
has been often seen on the local stage
was billed in the part of Madam Sherry
hut she was not in the cast and the part
was taken by an understudy who failed
to meet the requ1rementS-nOta she
was not fat-and- furthermore she could
not sing. Oscar Figman in the chief com
edy role was decided success though
he was suffering from a cold.
