PECULIAR contest
HEARD At DICKINSON

Dickinson, N. D., Jan. 3l.-A pecu-
government against Dominick Wetz-
stein, who resides north of Richard
ton.
The hearing was held at the Dickin-
son United States land office the first
of this week, Special Agent L. K.
Dellar conducting the prosecution for
the government, and H. c. Nichols and
Charles H. Starke appearing for the
defendant.
The charge of the government is that
D. Wetzstein failed to establish and
maintain residence upon the land. His
final communication proof was offered on
July 30, 1909. He established residence
on the claim OH February 10, 1903,
where he resided with his wife and
three younger children continuously up
to the time of offering proof on July
80, 1909, and has there resided since
and up to the present time. Two of
Mr. Wetzstein's elder daughters and
hired help has resided all this time at
a home one-fourth mile distant On land
other than the quarter in question.
This, the government agent construes,
is maintaining another home and not
showing good faith on the part of the
defendant. The homestead quarter was
fenced and grazed instead of being
plowed and cultivated in the usual way.
While it is held that grazing land un-
der certain conditions answers for cul-
tivation, in this case it is alleged that
good faith was not shown.
Mr.. Wetzstein thought that he was
doing all the government required and
is making strong effort to establish
his RIGHT to the homestead. |

FIRST DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE GADzKE trial

Jamestown, N. D., JAM 3l.-The ad-
mission as evidence of what Karl
Gadzke said when neighbors first found
him after the shooting in this city last
October, made the first real point i'll
the preliminary hearing of Mrs. Gestina
Gadzke, charged with the murder of
her husband, before Judge Bigelow
Saturday.
The case has been postponed many
times and after the gathering of the
witnesses, new complaint, charging
Mrs. Gadzke with murder in the first
degree was sworn to and introduced
in place of the one upon which she has
been held in the county jail for several
weeks. Mrs. Gadzke was present and
throughout the first part of the hearing
appeared confident that the ultimate re-
suit of the suit would be to free her.

creed by the Court, all ditched. A
nice painted seven-room house, log
barns, corrals to fatten cattle in, all

is sown it will cut double the amount.
All this land is in one square block

acre farms. This Ranch opens to
Government Reserve. Beautiful pine
timber adjoining.

the affair, and said that he had sixteen

Thursday stepped into the Dickinson
United States land office and filed as
the head of household on 100 acres
at Oakda1e.
This is perfectly legitimate, and the
only requirement now will be that Mr..
and Mrs Vassar reside thereon and cul-
tivate the land. Had the lady waited
until after the marriage she could not
have filed.
1t is quite probable that the Joe
Vassar family is the largest in Dunn

Baseball Player
Makes Confession
JACK KNIGHT ADMITS UMPIRES ARE BETTER ABLE

in better position to Judge plays
than the player himself Jack Knight
OF the New York Highlanders Is the
wonder in question and there is lit.
tie doubt OF his being the man for
whom Diogenes has beenz searching
ali these years.
Knight turned baseball writer this
winter and in one OF his articles IL
the New York Press in regard to the
umpires, writes as follows:
All umpire, though. is usually In a
position to Judge plays better than
anyone else. The man back of the
bat certainly can see balls and strikes
better than anyone who is looking nj
the plate from an angle. The field
umpire. being at right angles TO a
runner, is in the best position 70

the question, How was that play?
Then the first sacker, not for publ

he hit the base or not. On the other
hand, the man stealing Is just as un-
certain, although he doesn't admit II,
and almost invariably differs from
the umpire II called out.
Every umpire has his own method
OF running the game. Some umpires,
notably Billy Evans and Tim Hurst,
get along nicely by kidding the play
ers out of their crouch. They dislike
to put a man OF the field and only d.
so when he has made himself objec-
tionable to everybody. Tim Hurst
